Attack on Commaders keep!

Last evening Commanders Keep went into chaos as two mindworm boils appeared from the nearby fungusfield and attacked the city.
The two synth.garrisons had a short warning, as a rain of spores coming rained down on the city.The spores caused the death of over 700 civilians and the citys medic-stations were crowded of atleast twice the same number.However, it didn´t cause much damage to the citys defenders.
After this brutal attack, two mindworm boils rushed the citys defences.The first one was eliminated easily, but the second boil got into the city, causing heavy damage both to the defenders and the civilian population.It damaged heavily the recycling tanks and devoured a whole synth.garrison before it was eliminated.The mindworms killed over 1000 civilians.

Actions against the mindworms

Another mindworm boil tried to attack Sparta Command, but the quick actions of the 5th Laser Rovers probably saved the lives of hundreds of civilians.
Colonel Santiago ordered the massive destruction of all native lifeforms, especially xenofungus and mindworms.All former units are to be sent to clear all native lifeforms in the vicinity of the bases, with the 2nd, 4th and 5th Laser Rovers working as escorts.
The 1st synth.Rovers will be patrolling around War Outpost for more possible attacks.

The Junta and the people are furious about the failed attack on U.N. Headquarters.

After the information about the failure of the taskforce arrived in Sparta Command, the whole city went out of control.Thousands of people went out to the streets to protest.

”My brother died out there.How can Colonel Santiago let our mighty army to be beaten by a smaller force of some weak peacekeepers?!”.Later on the riot police came and cleared the streets out of protesters.Hundreds were arrested and atleast ten people are dead.

The Junta was also furious and a emergency meeting was called.After the meeting, the angry Generals went out without commenting a word.


*Dream to Planetmind from Colonel Santiago*

Are you this entity that has caused me so much trouble… your attack on Commanders Keep…on the civilians there…revenge…you seem good friends with the peacekeepers…
there are peacekeeper civilians in War Outpost…they will suffer…every time you attack my people…don´t try to help them…I´ve ordered my forces to kill them if you attack War Outpost…if you keep your worms and plants out of my territory…there will be no trouble between us…

Orders
From:Colonel Santiago
To: Commander Valomar, Synth.garrison located in War Outpost

Take 2000 civilians and kill them.Then throw the bodies into the nearest fumgus field.
This is the revenge on the massacre that happened in Commaders keep.If the natives attack your base, kill all the civilians there.
No questions, just obey your orders.

Consciousness Posting

Here is an update on the attack on Inspiration Point. We successfully managed to destroy one of the Universities scout rovers that are patrolling around the city. We believe that the other one (through information gathered by intelligence) is patrolling the far side of the city.

Our current plan is to block off the city with the five derivitives of augmented patrol units, whilst the three rover derivitives hunt out and destroy the other university scout rover.

Once the University Scout Rover has been neutralised, they will return to the city and aid in the final assault. We have simulated this strategy and see a minimum of consciousness casualties.

By attacking from all directions, we can quickly determine which quarters the defence will come from, and arrange our attacks accordingly. The patrol derivitives will be the first to enter, once they have pinpointed the areas where the defence will spring from, the rover derivitives will move in quickly and finish them off.

The defenders are well armoured, as well as our troops, though we far surpass them in weaponry. This should be a textbook assault.

Our rover units are just departing now, and we are getting ourselves into position as I post...

The Unity… one hundred thousand tons of steel in the cold night with a hundred kilometers long torch behind…the Unity was just a publicity stunt to give hope for the people back on our homeplanet…Earth…they never expected us to make the trip…still, we´re here…and they all are dead…because of their own foolishness and greed…the memories are painful…
Please, introduce these other survivors to me…but don´t tell them the location of this island…some of them might be like the Spartans…and my people have suffered enough…


UN Free Press

Escape to the Island of Peace succesful

The whole population from the three bases in the old continent has moved into the island.
Formers have started to terraform the island into habitable for humans and volunteers are being signed up to help the construction teams in enlarging the bases.
Most of the people are satisfied in the temporal cramped accomodations and rations.
”It is nothing compared to what the Spartans might have done to us.”commented Jun Hurokawa, construction engineer.

Today, an Island of deep brought the remnants of the taskforce that was sent from U.N. Headquarters against the invading Spartan Horde, Alltogether one badly damaged copter and four Scout rovers.However, they bring good news.Not only our forces were able to stop them, but they were routed, and the Spartans fled the area with the remnants of the Laser rover unit behind them.There is no other information concerning the faith of the laser Rovers.

What is happening in U.N. High Comission?

Nothing has been heard of our people in U.N. High Comission since the base was captured.Many horrible rumours have spread around but no official information is available.
And what will we do to help them?Will we send troops there or just sit here in our island while the Spartans are killing our people in U.N. Headquarters. It is time for Comissioner Pravin Lal to do something.

Dream to Commissioner Lal...

I have news from your captured base. The Spartans killed about 2000 EarthPeacekeepers because of me. I assualted their cities. I am very sorry. Now I know the other extream of you EarthHumans. I think that an assualt combining Planet and Earth forces is the only thing to do. I have deemed only one of the surviving Earthpeople suitable for you to attempt to talk to. Her name is Datajack Sinder Roze. She leads the Earthdataangels. They are spies but I think they will not reveal your location. I will contact her. Thanks for the discription of the Unity. I think I have found it. There was a desturbance that killed a large patch of Planetfungus. It was very long and it fits your description. Load a recovery team onto an Isle and I will take you there.

Dream to Datajack Roze...

I believe I have some interesting information for you. The factions who you are with now are not the only survivors. There are some others who call themselves the "Peacekeepers". They believe in the U.N. Charter but they also believe in peace and freedom. I think they would be better company than the ones you are with now. I have a Planetworm rushing for your capital with the special "thing" which will allow you to contact them. If you find and reveal their location (Pause) I will be forced to protect them.

Dream to Col. Santiago...

I will withdraw all forces in your territory in exchange for 1000 EarthPeacekeepers.

Other Survivors?

Datajack Roze indicated today that there is a chance that other survivors might exist on one of the other continents. She failed to reveal how she discovered this information, however she did reveal that they apparently seek to uphold the UN Charter and style themselves the Peacekeepers. Such news can only be good, with people like Provost Zakharov grabbing for power at the expense of humans rights. The Datajack did not say when or how, but that she would seek to communicate with the Peacekeepers and that she would inform us when contact had been made.

*****************************************

[i]Dream to Planetmind...
I thank you, this is truly a great gift...I look forward to speaking with these Peacekeepers. I am glad to know that more of humanity has survived...Please, let me know if there is any way I can help you in return...

[Cyber]

Dream to planetmind from Colonel Santiago

Agreed…1000 peacekeepers for a non-attack treaty…but I´m afraid I still have to clear all native lifeforms from the vicinity of my bases…the people here are very angry because of your recent attacks…something to kill…to satisfy them…and remember…do not brake the treaty or the peacekeepers will suffer…

Orders
From:Colonel Santiago
To: Commander Von Halzeburg, Special Unit in Sparta Command

I want you to go to the peacekeeper territory, near U.N. Headquarters(OOC:the old U.N. Headquarters).Scout the area and find out what the peacekeepers are up to.I want to know if they are preparing a something against us.Do not let anybody detect you and if possible, don´t get into any fights.This is a strictly a covert-ops mission.If get you into trouble, there will be no backup.

***Private Message***
To: Comissoner Pravin Lal c/o Peacekeeping Forces
From: Datajack Sinder Roze c/o Data Angels

Comissoner Lal,

I have to tell you how glad I am to hear that you and your people landed safely, and have managed to survive in this hostile environment. I hope you do not mind me communicating you, but the Planetmind suggested that my people have much to learn from you.

You probably don't remember, as my position onboard the Unity was not exactly vital. I acted as Information Officer, and I believe we met once at the Geneva Banquet before the mission left Earth. I must say that I'm glad to hear that you have chosen to uphold the original mission plan and that you still value the UN Charter. Not everyone I have met so far sees the way you and I do.

Orginally I worked for CEO Morgan, but the two of us disagree on far too many things to work together. Many followers chose to leave with me, and we garnered support from citizens of Provost Zakharov's University of Planet. Unfortunately, CEO Morgan did not take so kindly to our secession, and my people suffered two years of war in order to gain our independence. Provost Zakharov's support was actually key to our survival as a faction. I find it sadly ironic that I know find myself forced into a war with his faction.

Provost Zakharov has abandoned much of what the Unity mission espoused, having imprisoned many of his citizens without just cause. He is partaking in a war to wipe out the Cybernetic Conciousness, a faction of Cyborgs that arose from Provost Zakharov's own experiments. Their leader, Prime Function Aki Zeta-Five, is being victimized in this war.

For this reason, and because of Provost Zakharov's violation of the UN Charter, I have joined Aki Zeta-Five's forces in liberating the citizens of the University from Zakharov's tyranny. CEO Morgan has also offered his support in the war, although his lack of respect for our new home seems to have gotten him in trouble with the Planetmind. I cannot say I'm entirely diasappointed by that.

While I realize I may have rambled on quite a bit, I thought it was important that you knew with whom you were dealing. I believe in the free flow of information between all people, and have nothing to hide from you Comissoner. On the same level though, I understand your need for caution. You have my personal word that none of the other factions will know of your existence unless you expressesly desire it to be so.

I hope that together we can attempt to reinforce the UN Charter on the remenants of the Unity mission, and that we can provide a free flow of information between all our peoples. I look forward to hearing from you and hope that our two peoples can work together.

God, I sound like such a diplomat! No offence

Sincerely yours,
Sinder Roze

[Christantine The Great]

Dream to Capt. Svensgaard...

It was a garbled message that someone in the EarthCyborgs sent to me. Sorry for any inconvience. I do not know the strange child but he seems to take control of Planetworms near his bases. It is confusing. Ignore this child.

OOC: I'm sorry if you thought I sent the Isle that way over the continent. I cut around the southern most sea to avoid detection. Sorry about not being clear about that. You would not see the Isle.

Dream to Commissioner Lal...

Prepare for the arrivial of 1000 prisoners from the captured base of yours. They are my gift to you. I was forced to sign a treaty though. I can give you Planetworms to study. They will arrive in your headquarters. I cannot fight the Spartans or they will hurt your people. They are also destroying all Planetfungus so I cannot breed or hide troops in that territory.

[[LordLMP]]

OOC: Unity Foil exploring the Sea of Unity and a Gun Foil patrolling around Privateer Quay on the western part of Sea of Unity. the isle of the deep would cross the Sea of Unity and a chance for the Unity Foil to detect it, esepcially if your moving along southern waters which is the quickest travel time, unless you move up up along the Great Rift to the northern waters, but would take longer to travel.
Even then, chance or the Gun Foil exploring the great northern seas to detect the isle of the deep. Just wait for point where you won't be able to move anywhere via the waters without being detected by the nautilus pirates

Private Message
From:Comissioner Lal
To: Datajack Sinder Roze

Datajack Roze,

I am also very glad to finally meet some sensible people in this new world.Planetmind said that your faction specialises in espionage, but I will not condemn you for that as I too try to uphold the free flow of information.

The uphold of the UN Charter seems once again harder, as I heard from you how power has affected Prokhor Zakharov.But I am not ready to choose sides yet, until I have done further investigations and heard all sides.

As you and your people have fought for your freedom, so have we.Couple months ago our bases were located on the continent east from you.There, about a year ago we met the Spartans.
Their faction is a highly militaristic-facist faction that has no respect for freedom and human rights.The first meeting between me and the Spartans leader Colonel Santiago, the same Santiago who was in the Unity security team and whos lunatic followers probably fatally damaged Unity, was a complete disaster.Our two factions have so different ideologies, and because of that difference and their own opinions about ”weakness” the Spartans despise us even if haven´t them anything wrong.
After that meeting they closed their borders and didn´t want to communicate with us.
The silence finally broke half a year ago, when the Spartans launched a surprise attack against one of our bases, capturing it and excercising genocide on our people living in there.We realised that we would sooner or later lose this war, so with the help of our friend Planetmind, we packed up and moved away to a place safe from the Spartan persecutors.

Our peoples have seen war enough, and if things go the same way, will see much more.I will try to talk to Zakharov and maybe we can come into some kind agreement about the situation.Lets hope that he will listen to a neutral faction.I truly wish we can find a peaceful solution to this situation, because in war nobody wins and everyone loses.
If you could send me Zakharovs frequency and I´ll make contact with him.

You, my friend, have taken a weight from my back, as you prove that there are people here on this planet that have not abandoned freedom and human rights for personal gain or just simple survival. I´m glad to finally have found an ally in this harsh world.

-Comissioner Pravin Lal

Subject: Force Movements
From Orders: General Hising Han-Diego
To Orders: Lieutenant John Walsh-Pikens

With the destruction of one scout rover near Inspiration Point we shall have you move into position to defend the colony pod for Inspiration Point.

This colony pod shall head south with you as the defence, far from all attacking units, the orders shall not be spoken and are to be encoded so no one hears of their movements.

With hope, this new colony, Researchers Hold, will be constucted deep in a mountain hideaway, so as to be impenetrable from attack and grant all of our units the attacking advantage, even in defence thanks to its rocky crag holds.

From: Head Engineer Lou Ingos-Horeb

The new Synthemtal Sentinels have been built thanks to a mysterious 'donation' of materials from a prospector near the sea who claims to have received them from a 'friend'

Haerold: So Sven, the transaction is complete.
Sven: Yes, hopefully this will aid you in your battle against the Cyborgs.
Haerold: Thank you, this shall be a great help to us.
Sven: Yes, those fiendish Cyborgs whom my leader embraces are nothing but a bunch of landgrubbing fools who are only attempting to manipulate the 'true' humans.
Haerold: Yes Sven, I agree fully with you. Thank you once again for this large shipment of materials.
Sven: You are welcome, I will be back as soon as possible with more aid.
There are many who share my views and are diverting materials to help you...

Subject: Peace
From: Zakharov
To: Roze

Please Roze, reconsider this petty war against us. We have done nothing to harm you and only seek to help you in your quest for knowledge. If we make peace then I will release the Cyborg-supporters to you, all 1,320 of them.

Roze, our ideologies are so much alike, why should we quarrel. I recognized your faction and thus, hopefully, you will recognize mine as a force that belongs here.

I am willing, to an extent to allow the Cyborgs back into my faction; but I will NOT tolerate them as a seperate force to be reckoned with on this planet. All that does is tear us farther apart rather than bring humanity back together.

And that. Is the goal of the UN Charter.

-Zakharov
