From the NewsWire:

Magus Retires

A secret message has leaked! One Leader reportedly sent this message to another:

Hallo - Looks like you don't have to fear that after all. My people have a standard policy of being nonaggressive with everyone, and will give 5 turns' notice of any cancellation of that policy. Would you reciprocate? Also, it sounded like you might be interested in a mutual-defense treaty. I would be happy to do something like that as well. Suggest you also keep your unit/production ratio above 8 (or better, 10) to avoid looking like a snack to one of the predator nations out there.
