Power's Edge: Tournament 2007 - International News for Turn 49

From the NewsWire:

Mswati Retires
Turn 49 - (P.E. Census)
Somewhere - Alas, King Mswati has not started a new nation and is no longer with us.

From the Grapevine:

  • A secret message has leaked! One Leader reportedly sent this message to another:
    How's it going for you? Just wanted to say hello... I was wondering whether you'd agree with an idea that we smaller nations ought to stick together for mutual defense, should the opportunity arise?

  • Observers report seeing a diplomatic message pass between Scorpion and Apollyon.
  • A secret message has leaked! One Leader reportedly sent this message to another:
    Sirrus, get your nose out of you books and run you ages. Aren't you supposed to be dead? But that was the story once before. Your mind was destroyed, but you live again. Run your world or turn it over to a new leader. A suggestion to end the conflict between your nation and mine on one side, and Scorpion and Fluffy Duckie on the other had been made. I have declared that I will accept the offer if all four parties also accept. I can accept peace with Scorpion and have not have a real dispute with Fluffy Duckie. Only through our relations with D'ni was Albumia drawn into a dispute with Fluffy. You, Sirrus, have shown me no courtesy, no reply to my messages. I can not support D'ni when there is no reciprocating support. You apparently have little to fear from Fluffy Ducky as he has said publicly he will not invade. Scorpion has not responded to the public peace suggestion. If you can spare units, transfer them from Mechanical Age to Everybody's... Albumia will reciprocate your nation for your good support when you are in need or when the world is at peace. When your units return Albumia troops will accompany them to pay tribute to wise leadership in D'ni. End of Message - Rob Gordon.

  • Observers report seeing a diplomatic message pass between apeloverag3 and Frodo.
  • Emissaries of Gordon carry this message to all:
    Just so we're clear, Albumia never had a dispute with Fluffy Duckie. Regarding Scorpion: Albumia has attempted to negotiate with Scorpion, but he continues to demand that we turn over our region Everybody's...

  • Emissaries of Scorpion carry this message to all:
    TO Gordon; have reduced forces in Viggen to 50. To all; Skunk Works accepts this treaty brokered by Frodo.

  • Emissaries of Commodore Stevens carry this message to all:
    Ahoy! Anyone out there joining us from Crisis of Integrity?

  • Explorers loyal to 2Cool have connected to a region belonging to Commodore Stevens!
  • Invasion! There are reports that a massive force loyal to Fullerton invaded 07-Independents at Independent-2! The defenders were hopelessly outnumbered!
    ... the victorious attackers rename the region Smuggler's Cove-2 and capture its 2 production!

  • Region in Crisis: Disaster has struck the Region Lothlorien owned by Leader Frodo. The surviving units and population are being merged into adjacent Regions.
  • Region Disconnect: The connection between Lothlorien and The Moria has broken. Both places now have an additional internal connection possible.
  • P.E. Census Report: The Universe now contains a total of 184 regions controlled by a total of 13 Leaders. 156 of these regions belong to the 11 Leaders controlling Major (i.e. interconnected) nations.

    The next update is scheduled for Saturday at 20:00 U.S. Pacific Time.
