2154 to the Hive

---------------------

The Drones confirm that impact weapons were used against the Hive aggressors. Also Drone intelligence reports that the Hive have the impact ability. In addition there are reports that the Hive has reverse-engineered their rovers without obtaining the Doc: Mobility ability. The ingenuity of the Hive scientists is to be respected .

Is that not allowed, the rover thing?

2155 to the Hive

Reverse engineering a rover from a probe is illegal in a couple of my games and I never did it myself-- but it appears to be my loss since there is no rule against it in the "tournament rules" that we said we would use. So essentially I goofed in not remembering/noting the rules applicable to this game.--

"Foreman, we regret to inform you that the rover LIBERTY, recently freed from Hive oppression, has been destroyed in Hive reprisals.

The Battles between Hive and Free Drones at the savage lands remains undecided. Both sides has claim numerous victories and losses. The war might be decided right here. Only the future will tell.

Stephen,
What kind of level is the game set up with, is it transcend?

Flubber · October 24, 2001, 07:29

Yup

I just used the game engine to set it up amd chose transcend level. SE changes cost 40 so I find that is the easiest way to check

knowhow2 · October 24, 2001, 07:33

You know since we're beating eachother's heads off, I think the AI might be running away with the tech lead. Soon, Miriam will come knocking at the door with Chaos weapon

You are right about the tech lead thing but if you keep on sending rovers at me, I have no choice but to defend myself

Turn 2159 to those evil Hivesters

This game is turning into an early slugfest so its tactical rather than strategic. you just keep on sending those rovers . . . I will be ready

Drone press release

In a daring covert operation, Free Drone Special forces joined with a former Hive impact speeder and inflicted heavy damage on invading Hive forces. Early estimates indicate that Two impact squads, a 2-2-2 rover and a covert operations team were all destroyed. Unfortunately, we have lost contact with both the speeder and the covert team and it is feared that they may be lost in the attack. Our prayers are with them and with all the soldiers that continue to fight for freedom

Hive Social Party Meeting Results

We have kindly offer a peaceful solution to this madness to the Drones but they refused with a dispiteful remark. We will take this insult to them and demand each and every one of the Drones to answer.

FREE DRONE PRESS CONFERENCE

" . . . yes it is true that we rejected a Hive offer of truce. It was offered as a give us this and we will give you a truce type of thing. Since the Hive have utterly failed to make any significant gains in their war upon us , we see no reason why we should pay them. . . WE are now on full alert as the pace of military encroachment has slowed and we suspect that they may try to attack from another direction"

Hive Anti-Terrorist Group Informs

We have received several packages containing viruses with an effect of multiplying the uprising drones in our bases. The situation is currently so out of control that appropriate measures have been taken for the greater good of the factions. All blame are to be directed against our enemies, the Drones and The Spartans. Be careful not to come in contact with any suspcious packaegs in the future. and treat all communication with the Drones and the Spartans as hostile.

I might not be able to play any turns this weekend (fri-sun) so if I don't return the turns don't be alarmed.

-----------------------------------------

" We of the Free Drones feel it is totally in the nature of the Hive to resort to racial slurs. This is part of their ongoing process to try to dehumanize us such that they may more easily justify attempts at genocide. We will resist them and will support a world in which differences are celebrated and the rights of the common working man is protected.
