Power's Edge: Web of Intrigue - International News for Turn 52

From the NewsWire:

From the Grapevine:

  • mundungu's people are protesting the lack of leadership in their Regions!

  • Observers report seeing a diplomatic message pass between arcanexx and -xXx-.
  • A secret message has leaked! One player reportedly sent this message to another:
    Hello, Bynder. I don't think we have spoken yet, but with all the wars going on I suspect that we may meet up sometime. Even if not, there may be chances for us to cooperate in the future, and I would like to open up communications and establish friendly relations with your nation. The Watchers also offer you a permanent non-aggression treaty (with 5 turns' notice for cancellation, and no scouting or attacks without prior agreement), so that if we happen to bump into one another we do not need to worry about the other side. Are you interested? You can contact me at TheWatchers(at)subdimension(dot)com if you prefer to send email rather than these in-game messages.

  • Observers report seeing a diplomatic message pass between Monte C. and Thakgar Bigteeth.
  • Emissaries of H. Hornblower carry this message to all:
    My primary messenger service has been aggressive about rejecting letters from people it doesn't know (spam filtering). I have contracted an alternate messenger service (hornblower@subdimension.com). Use it if the primary service fails you.

  • Emissaries of TwoCool carry this message to all:
    I accept The Watchers permanent non-aggression treaty (with 5 turns' notice for cancellation, and no scouting or attacks without prior agreement). I offer the same to my new neighbor H. Hornblower of the Royal Navy.

  • Emissaries of Bionicle carry this message to all:
    I would like to give 5-turn notice to Tuskoids that our agreement ends

  • Emissaries of Batu carry this message to all:
    I am moving this turn to honor my mutual defense pact with -xXx- and declare war on the nation of dascen elur. If arcanexx or any other leader can explain this attack, I would be very interested in further discussions. Otherwise, a state of war will exist.

  • Emissaries of Ubuu carry this message to all:
    As might eventually be expected, with such deteriorating relations, now Thakgar has breached a formal agreement with me, whose spirit was admittedly already in tatters.

  • Emissaries of Monte C. carry this message to all:
    Peace signed with xXx.
