Power's Edge: Web of Intrigue - International News for Turn 48

From the NewsWire:

New Leader: Dozer
Turn 48 - (P.E. Census)
Somewhere - Welcome to Power's Edge, Dozer!

From the Grapevine:

  • Observers report seeing a diplomatic message pass between Bionicle and Ennogard.
  • A secret message has leaked! One player reportedly sent this message to another:
    You've probed Temple's defenses. Are you going to attack him, remain neutral or support him. We have always had good relations, I see no reason that should change. My armies may be ready to stand down soon, as we have achieved most of our current goals. In part that depends on the actions of my neighbors.

  • Emissaries of My Pretty Pony carry this message to all:
    Oh no! I thought I had gotten rid of all of the war-thinking ponies, but now my newspaper writer tells me that we don't have enough ponies to defend ourselves from enemies (he calls it a unit shortage). But we don't have enemies. Does anyone want my newspaper writer?

  • Emissaries of painted dog carry this message to all:
    All, i now can be reached at painted_dog@ameritech.net , my previous address will no longer be used. Please update your records.

  • Emissaries of Thakgar Bigteeth carry this message to all:
    I declare war on Kirdel. This violates no treaties or agreements. Thakgar

  • Emissaries of Ubuu carry this message to all:
    My first encounter with temple came as he bossed traffic around his surrounding neutrals. When one neighbor responded to a possible joint venture to retake such a neutral with encouragement, I consulted with other neighbors &found the previously mentioned pattern of neglect or bullying of neighbors.
