Power's Edge: Crisis of Integrity - International News for Turn 143

From the NewsWire:

P.E. Population now 27
Turn 143 - (P.E. Census)
P.E. H.Q. - With these 1 new Leaders, there are now 27 Leaders in the Power's Edge Universe.

New Leader: rafa
Turn 143 - (P.E. Census)
Somewhere - Welcome to Power's Edge, rafa!

Philbert Retires
Turn 143 - (P.E. Census)
Somewhere - Alas, President Philbert has not started a new nation and is no longer with us.

From the Grapevine:

  • Senile One's people are protesting the lack of leadership in their Rooms!

  • Observers report seeing a diplomatic message pass between J Fo Mac Man and MuscularPacifists.
  • Observers report seeing a diplomatic message pass between Star and Ainokar.
  • Observers report seeing a diplomatic message pass between GregoriusXVI and Taurus.
  • Emissaries of MuscularPacifists carry this message to all:
    FFM - sorry about collision; when you're ready, let me know how to proceed with our exchange. Tacitus: Seems to me you could have given Gregorius a second chance. Boosmer did, and he had a much bigger gripe with G than you do!

  • Emissaries of Mockingbird carry this message to all:
    Tacitus, Let me know if you need and help or Units.

  • Emissaries of Merlin carry this message to all:
    FFM: Pls take Indep 126. I still maintain a claim to Indep 236.

  • Emissaries of GregoriusXVI carry this message to all:
    Tacitus has no real reason for attacking me. When I was at War with Boosmer he jumped in and helped clean me out. There was no reason. I even offered him a non-aggression pact before the War with boosmer but he refused. Don't belive Tacitus's lies.
