Hello everyone!

Now that the official tournament round starter said, let the games begin!

This message contains information on how this round is differetn from the
practice round. Read it, it is important! Following this message you will
receive a noarchive message containing the archive with the gamefile and
revised scenario in it. This is the starting gamefile, so Joe Dude the
Great should use this file to start his turn. And then we'll be off!

So, without further ado, here is the important information...


Round A Rules Reminders!
Last Updated 30-September-97 by Bob Heeter

Read this message carefully - it contains a lot of essential information!

*** Critical Scenario and Rules Changes from the Practice Round ***

* Starting Gold:  4200/side

* Razing:  On Capture only

* Round A games will last for 20 turns!

* New Gold Rules:
   The gold limit for Strongholds is now 2500.
   All the gold is now in strongholds; revert until you get less than 2500.
   We recommend reverting to get between 2400 and 2500.  (The odds of
   getting between 2400 and 2500 are about 10%, so this takes less reverting
   than trying to get near 3600!)

* Special Builds:
   The center cities all build griffins!  Sack 'em for cash - or build 'em!
   Note - griffins defending neutral cities are strength 8 (6+2).
   The neutral cities are set to "active" in the tournament.

* New Rule:  Two Heroes!
   You are allowed (and expected!) to revert and get a second hero on Turn 2.
   *** If you want a second hero, it MUST come ONLY on Turn 2. ***
   The second hero can come with *any* ally you choose in *any* city you
control.
   You may not replace any dead heroes until *both* heroes are dead.
   Then the regular hero-replacement rules apply.  (Note that once you lose
   a hero you cannot have more than one hero on the map.)  Ask your Moderator
   or Headquarters for details.  The starting gold has been increased to
   allow the purchase of the second hero.  You must report the cost of the
   second hero and he/she must cost at least 1000 gold.

* New Rule:  Limited Allies with Replacement Heroes:
   After Turn 2, all replacement heroes may only come with wizards, ghosts,
   elementals, or worms.  Archons, Demons, Dragons, and Devils are not allowed
   with replacement heroes - you can only get them from ruins or with your
   Turn 2 second hero.  Warlord, use thy allies wisely! :)

* Holidays:
   The U.S. Thanksgiving Weekend in late November and the
   midwinter holidays (from December 20 to January 7) will be official
   "Tournament Holidays".  Time limits will not be enforced during those
   periods, and players do not need to worry about using up vacation time
   then, although we hope the games will all continue!  We expect
   some games to finish before Christmas, and the rest in January and February.
   Round B will begin in mid-January after the winter holidays end!
   More timeouts will be supplied to all Round A players when Round B begins.


*** Prizes for Round A ***

   The four Warlords who write the most entertaining game history will
   each receive a prize from SSG.

   The one Warlord who writes the best individual roleplay will also
   receive a prize from SSG.

   The awarding of both prizes will be determined after the round ends
   by a team of moderators (who will exclude themselves from recieving prizes).

The sign said 'Heroes wanted for pillaging, warfare, destruction & general
mayhem.' Dude thought it sounded like just the job for him.
'Righto, first lets see your stuff. Go pillage Los Angeles and we'll see
about giving you the job.' Ah, Los Angeles, somehow the thought of wreaking
havoc in that city made him all aquiver with anticipation. So much so he
just had to thump the pathetic looking scout hanging about the I.O.C.
employment office.
'Whups, don't know me own strength.'
'Never mind, we'll clean that up. He never was worth his wages anyhow.'

Apparently everybody in Los Angeles was at the superbowl, leaving only one
lonely looking scout to look after the gate. The only question was what was
going to be the most fun form of dispatching this wretched creature.
Unfortunately he died of fright upon seeing dude get ready to cave his
skull in without putting up a fight. Pulling apart the scout factory was
easy.

'Beudy, you've got the job, and we managed to get 175 gold for the parts
from that scout factory you pillaged' said the ethereal voice apparently
coming from 'The Real World,' a place most thought was mythical but where
Dude knew some pretty weird creatures hung out, one of whom was his boss.
'Hang out in Los Angeles for a bit while we build a couple of Griffin
factories.'

The following message was sent on Friday October 10, 1997 at 06:29 PM EDT
by Greg Ehrig <gehrig@cris.com> to all players;

Young Howard walked up the steps of the CNN office.

"Yer late kid" said the editor, "Not good. The old man will be pissed".
Cosell comported himself nervously.  "Uh, where do I find him?"   "Up the
stairs, first door on the left, right past the torture room, then left at
the armory.   Good luck to ya"  Thanking the man, Cosell then followed his
instructions, eventually winding up where instructed, in front of the
battered desk of the dreaded old man.   All that was visibile of Don Ehrigi
was a thin plume of stogie smoke, trailing above a smeared copy of the
newspaper published by Ehrigi's media empire. The only other evidence of
Ehrigi's existence were the two hands, tightly clenched on the newsprint,
framing the paper.
Several moments passed, during which Cosell cleared his throat and shuffled
his feet. No response.   Cosell remained where he was.   This was his last
chance.  Ehrigi's operation was the only one that had not turned him down.
He needed this job.
Finally, Ehrigi's voice asked, sharply, "So, you want to be a cub reporter
for me?"   "Yes, sir...."   "Hmmm, alright, you have persistence, or else
you would not still be here, and you have patience.   I want you to see
what you can get out of the St. Moritz angle.   I understand there is
something brewing down there. I want a story out of it. You're hired.
Dismissed."   A puff of smoke emerged from the top of the paper.  Cosell
thanked his new employer and ran to equip himself from stores.
Later, A little judicious applied torture gave him some deep background
from the paper boy, squeaky.   Squeaky, it turned out, had been embezzling
from the paper for years, dragging down profits.  He was, of course,
eliminated in a very public manner, as an example, but unfortunately this
was not news fit to print.

Dirt on someone else is always news, dirt on your own organization is of
course not reflective of the true state of affairs and thus misleading,
therefore dishonest, the conclusion being said dirt should never be
published, for moral reasons.

Fortunately for his career, Cosell knew this, and was able to spin the
story nicely towards the theme of how Ehrigi had rooted out corruption
within the organization, while the other warlord's corruption was being
brought to light and corrected soley because of the crusading journal's
tireless reporting.

A few other minor stories came up.   A story about possible financial
troubles in the Organizers camp, and one on the interesting developments in
the orange side of life, Then it was on to St. Moritz!. Cosell's stories
exposing the truth of the corrupt regime there eventually led the city to
decapitate their old mayor and ask for Ehrigi's protection and guidance in
how to determine their destiny.   When we last heard from our hero, he was
arranging to hire a private flight to explore some ruins that had been much
speculated about lately:

The Story:

		Today, my favorite Warlord, Warlord Hargluck, came to me, and said "Oh
my Lord. I've got some problems. nobody except our troups knows who I
am. What can I do!?" I responded "Uh! You're right. you're a brave
Warlord, and people MUST know who you are. I've heard of a nice place,
approximately at three hours of horseriding in the west. Here, you can
have a nice fight, and you can and must won the TV rights here (gold
+6). It's an easy trip for you. I know You'll be successful. Send me a
messenger when you have won the TV rights."
	My Warlord went, and I decided then to create a new Griffin flight
School in the Couch for 1700 GP, in order to train Elite Griffins
Squadron. It would be a nice surpise for my Warlord when he'll get the
lead of a griffin unit.
	6 hours later, the messenger came, and told me the good new that
Hargluck has won the TV rights. People will now know who he really is,
and its real value.

The facts:
	Griffins built in the Couch for 1700 Gp.
	Warlord Hargluck won the TV rights in Aubert's Crypt.
	Balance is now of 2515 Gp, I'll earn 46 Gp this turn, and will loose no
gp this turn. I've got the smallest Empire (not for long, anyway), with
a single city.
	Hargluck haven't told me how much XPs he had got during the Auberrt's
Crypt's fight.

Rules Error.

Simoon (Blue), you should not have used the 'End Turn' command when you had
finished your turn. The player following you has to use the 'End Turn'
command for your side, then when they've done everything in their got they
send it on and the following player does 'End Turn' for them and so on.

As it is it is impossible for me to get my second hero.

Also if you could compress the gamefile it makes a big difference (72k vs
21k). Thanks.

"Service! Serivice!" bellowed the stately looking figure with a Giant Worm
on a leash.
"What, is everyone around here on holidays or something?"
King Chu decided to take matters into his own hands and set off to find
something to destroy. Not far down the road was Athens.
"Aha! Let's see your gods and heroes save you now!" he said, squashing the
lone sentry as he walked in without realising he was there. Being extremely
annoyed at the absence of anyone or anything he decided to vandalise the
scout training center to give himself something to do.

An ethereal voice called out "Pretty neat, looks like I could do with you
on staff."
"What do you mean by keeping me waiting like this?" demanded King Chu.
"Sorry, public holiday you know. But now your here I'm glad you've come.
I've got a little job for you..."

(******************** DIPLOMATIC message ****************)

Ehh, I got BLUE country into moving, now, as I understand that if I
ask you guys to keep out of my territory, no one will listen, especially

I am out of man.  So, let me make this clear, the FIRST one who
MARCH/PASS/FLY
into my territory will be my mortal enemy in game A01, and I will fight
him with all my power (even though not much).  If I can get a chance
to secure my country without invasion, I may be able to hold some
cities till the end of the game and THAT is what I want :)

OK, OK, I can be a reasonable man, the border city Oslo and Seoul
is not in my plan of territory so GREEN and ORANGE, help yourself!
Got to give you some "goodies".

(******************* WAR stories **********************)

As Prince Moria of Dungeon suddenly appeared in the castle, it was
almost empty!  A old man, he said he was General G. Wargluck, and
a pet griffin wandered around.  The sudden disaster took away most
of the working government for this mountain country and left not much
behind except an untouched vault of gold.

"OUCH!  This is the land of PROMISE??  More like a pit of demise,
like the black hole I was in...."sighed the lone prince.  The
HEADQUARTER told him if he can survive this tournament, he will
be given a new country and be a KING!  "Fat chance......" Moria
mumurred.

"Looks like you need some help!"  The sudden words startle Moria, and
he turned to see his old rivalry, Barlog, the devish one from the
Dungeon.  "Give me half country and I will help you survive!" hissing
sound from the tall slender devil.  "Never accept the first price",
thought our prince and after some more words, they agreed upon a deal, a
secret one.

"Now, this is my plan........" Prince Moria gestured Barlog and the old
man, redeemed as general again, gather around.  The huge hall was
filled with low voices of discussion.  By the daybreak, the army (a
small one by the eyes of other) marched.  Four cities would fall to
BLUE hand by the end of the day..............

==============================================================================
The Sun King & Queen are extremely saddened and dismayed to see Spectators
(white) send a giant worm into our kingdom and blatantly destroy one of our
lt cavalry and then take one of our cities (London)!  Even at this moment
the worm sits on our northern road within striking distance of our
Capital!!!  Such unprovoked acts of aggression, when there are still so
many neutral cities, do not go unnoticed and will not be forgotten.

Reporters (green), Howard and Jane, hope your noting this!

Spectators (blue), welcome to the game, your understandable offer of
nonagression is fine with us, your soon to be discovered giant worm(s)
would be seen as aggressive if they move north of Sydney (which I assume
you will take this cycle) toward Seoul, which we will take next cycle.

==============================================================================

    Gold at Start of Turn: 360, +200 -25


ETHNIC CLEANSING IN LONDON!
(AP) London
The sinister forces of the so-called "hero dude" overran the valiant
defenders of london today.  I was there as the walls shook to the tread of
the advancing pale minions of dude, grimly entering the city.  At first all
was quiet.  The residents, after all, knew that "there's a war on and that
this sort of thing happens from time to time, dont you know", as one of
these polite and genial inhabitants told me shortly before the calamity.
He was wrong.  The pale riders entered the city and spared not but slew,
slew every man, woman, and dog who so much as dared cross their path....
(continued on page A2, Atrocity)

GOVERNMENT IN SPECTATORVILLE FALLS, NEW HEAD OF STATE PROMISES PEACE!
UPI) The Couch.   The government fell here today amid a culmination of
scandals involving the old regime.  Chief among these were the failure of
key ministers to be present to vote on key issues.  The new goverment
offered a flag of truce to its neighbors. Don Ehrigi's office issued a
statement welcoming the new goverment in power and proposed a more explicit
division of territory....
(see page A12, Alliance)

DON EHRIGI DENIES INVOLVEMENT IN DEMOCRATIC UPRISING
Exclusive to the WL gazette
<CNN office> In a formal statement issued today, Don Ehrigi's
administration denied reporter's questions regarding possible links between
his government and the recent uprising against tyranny in Los Angeles.
"The people of Los Angeles have sent a strong message to the regime of hero
dude" said Ehrigi, "and that message is to desist from this overly
agressive and wasteful military build up on our border.  We desire peace
and alliance with the north, but a north that is our equal, not our master.
We will never, never, never, treat with those who threaten us.  Loud cheers
drowned out Ehrigi's opposition in parliament, and even much of the
opposite benches remained silent, signifying agreement with Ehrigi's words.
"What apparently happened, according to our intelligence assets, was a unit
of elementals apparently were pushed too far, and began the riots which we
have all seen on CNN" Ehrigi said. And went on to outline what little is
known about the incident.  Meanwhile, speculation is rampant over how
Dude's regime will react to this assertion of democracy.  Cynics point out
that Dude has brutally annexed free cities from the very beginning of his
regime, and will not hesitate to put down the rebellion now.  Dude's regime
declined to  comment, but it is believed that property destruction  as high
as 850 gold pieces resulted from the carnage, and valuable aerospace
industries were damaged.
(continued on A5, "Revolt for freedom")

(Elemental advances into unguarded Los Angeles, pillages Griffin)

Reprint from _The CNNArmy times_
Jan 8th.
......And due to recent cost saving measures, it was decided to close down
the base at Montreal, and divide its functions with older bases and a newer
one in a more central location: Moscow.   We phased out our production in
Mont, [lt cav built, montreal] and took over production of the Moscow site"

Diplomatic proposal to blue:

I accept your offer of truce. Why don't we cement our borders by Razing
oslo?  I believe that I will take the flying artefact, first one there and
all, but I pledge not to raid your gold ruins, if you respect the borders,
as will I.


...And to Orange...
I have probably provided you with a way to make up your loss, at my
expense, but hopefully white will pay the greater price.  I was driven to
this pass because of White's massing at my borders.  Since they are there,
and my covert operations units are in his rear, you should have few
problems in grabbing off a hunk or two from him, if you are nimble enough.
I sincerely hope so, since  he does have a jump in material production due
to his rapid (but one hopes not wise :-] ) early strategy.


Finally, to white....
Well, If ya push me, I push back.  Nothin personal, see?  Tell you what,
pull back some of your griffins of war and I will directly remove those
embarrassingly unsightly elementals.....

Sorry the writing quality is degenerating, but its gettin pretty late, and
I haven't slept in 36 hours. Yawn, ah well, till we meet again, on the
field of honor.


Don Ehrigi

well...

(********************  WAR stories ***********************)

Mmm, what a beautiful day!!  Prince Moria laid lazily on the porch of
the castle
and were enjoying the warm sunlight.  From the report of messangers, he
learned
that both generals is doing well.  Barlog found additional helps on the
two pet worms
he tamed in northern mountain area.  And each worm has already
conquered a neutral
city all by their own while Barlog is waiting to meet an old friend in
the other ruin,
hoping to convince the demon to join the defense.
In the mean time, General W. H. was greeting by an angel!  That angel
promised him to
bring him to the land where gold is hide.  Indeed we need those gold.

The elemental in W.H. 's troops has taken Oslo and keep it.  Prince
Moria thought over
about this, hopefully GREEN won't take this as a hostile intention. 
After all, Prince Moria tried to warn GREEN about the worker strikes in
Beijing and Montreal...

Gladly, Prince Moria confirmed both giant worms stay inside castles,
"Don't want to
trigger unnecessary misunderstanding with ORANGE, a powerful country." 
"As long as
we stay below Seoul, we should be OK.", mused Prince Moria, "The war has
already begun and hopefully our country can just stay out of the war as
long as possible....."

Diplomatic Message: Well they say do unto others as you would have them do
unto you, and I hope you Athletes (Orange) are happy with the Reporters
(Green) having done unto me, otherwise this is going to be a very short
game for me. I've already gone from one of the players with the most cities
to the player with less cities than anyone. Spectators (Blue), you just
lost your underdog status. Perhaps I shouldn't have taken that city, but it
seemed like the only direction I could move my Giant Worm in without your
hero being able to bump him off. Anyway I'd appreciate either  Reporters
(Green) or  Athletes (Orange) calling a truce with me, otherwise you'll
have a less interesting 3 player game and you will both have been weakened
by fighting me while Spectators (Blue) builds up without a fight.

REPORT FOR TOURNAMENT ROUND 1, GAME A01, TURN 5, SIDE 2.
==============================================================================
The Sun King & Queen were happy to harm no one this turn, save for taking 2
neutral cities. However there were many difficult choices to make.

Organizers (white)---
You removed your treacherous Worm leaving London intact.  We were tempted
to slaughter the worm (trust us, we could have, without remaining in harms
way), but decided to once more try the less aggressive path in light of
your leaving London.  Obviously we don't trust your kingdom and feel you
still owe us one, so, any build up or movement of forces on or across our
N-S borders will not be greeted kindly.

Reporters (green)
News of your freeing of Los Angeles was met with jubilation in our kingdom
:-)  Perhaps some day we may be of assistance to you.  We were tempted this
turn (see below).

Spectators (blue)
We were somewhat troubled seeing you take Oslo after promising this to
Green and quite frankly considered killing your Elemental and taking Oslo
(with Devil). As you know, Green has recently risen in our esteem!  However
we decided meddling in your affairs with other nations was not prudent, as
you had kept your word with us and have given us no reason to doubt your
friendly intentions!

REPORT FOR TOURNAMENT ROUND 1, GAME A01, TURN 5, SIDE 3
==============================================================================
THE WARLORD JOURNAL, TURN 5, SIDE 3


REPORTERS OFFER TRUCE TO ORGANIZERS!

(CNN Office)
In a surprise move today, Don Ehrigi declined to raze several tempting
targets deep within Organizer territory.  Speaking to graduating archers at
the Squaw Valley academy, he laid out justifcations for his recent foreign
policy moves  -  "Although we could well have made White forces suffer, we
declined, as this will be a long war and white has little to gain now from
attacking us"  Don Ehrigi said.  "In addition, withdrawal [of the
elementals] would allow force command to severely chastise any attempt at
treachery against moscow".  Opposition leader Don Murmagi, commenting after
the commencement speech, added "the real reason the elemental has
withdrawn[the elemental force] is there was no allied support for our
action.  This government has seriously failed on the diplomatic front. This
oversight would not have occured were I at the helm of government".
  Administration officials denied emphatically Murmagi's point, pointing
out there was little our allies could do in any case, and, our limited
strike had accomplished its objective, removing pressure from our northern
border.  Protesters outside the Orange Office demonstrated against the
limited move, saying that full strategic bombing should be continued
against the north, while supporters of the opposition staged a counter
demonstration prostesting the administrations lack of credibility in not
taking responsibility for the elemental strike last year.  Consolidation of
our Forces have allowed a multi layer defense at the key city of moscow,
although some analysts, speaking off the record, doubted whether Moscow
would be assaulted, since the cost of an enemy attempt would be dear.
Meanwhile, reports of high level talks between White and Green continued.
Analysts added that at this point, neither side can do anything to the
other without suffering crippling losses in return, and the current
international situation indicates neither side is able to afford to lose a
significant number of heavy units. Optimists hope that since a practical
truce is necessary, perhaps a permament one can be forged.


WARLORD GAZETTE JOURNALIST MAKES PILGRAMAGE TO TEMPLE!

Howard Cosell and his camera crew visited the temple and interviewed the
pope this turn. The Pope, in his lastest Bull, had denounced senseless
agression and encouraged the common brotherhood of all.  Cosell found the
pope to be "a strong spiritual advisor, who should be better listened to by
the four kingdoms....
....See Religion on page E12

Howard Cosell and Dragon are blessed for their trouble.


SPECTATORS TAKE OSLO
The Spectators took a strategic city this turn, on the borders of the
Journalists.   This move was seen by strategic planners as ambiguous, since
Oslo can be used as a jumping off point against either Green lands or
against the Athlete-controled city of Atlanta in the north.   Despite
strong pressure to do so, the administration has declined to commit itself
either way to developments, but is described as following with interest
events on our Eastern border.  An anonymous source within the government
observed that, while of course it would be in the better interest of both
countries to raze Oslo, The balance of force along the borders, and the
growing pressure from our ally Orange upon Blue, serves almost as well from
a security standpoint for Green as a demilitarized zone.


Jane pauley explores ruin for 2500 gold



DON EHRIGI TOURS ATHLETES, CELEBRATES PACT.

Confetti and a Formal reception awaited Ehrigi as he met with the other
Great Power, Orange, in a formal ceremony today.  Although neither leader
commented on their discussion, Ehrigi is popular here as the "savior of
London", although his forces did take the pressure off London against
aggressive moves, now a more ambiguous situation presents itself, since the
balance of power has changed to favor Orange.   The two sides are expected
to continue discussions through the week.

(*************************** DIPLOMATIC messages **********************)
To WHITE:

	Nothing change any status between us.  Good hunting!

To ORANGE:

	Same here.  Merry Christmas!

To GREEN:

	Dear Don:

		I never said that I don't want the fly item.  It's just that I thought I won't get there in 
time.  However, your moves give me a window that I can pick up that item and I took advantage 
of it.  In the process, I had to clear the ruin and I thought, "oh well, guess I am here to begin a 
fight after all."  Oslo has been emptied, you can march in at your leisure.  It seems an all-out war 
is imminent between us.  Dah, too few neutral cities around!!

		Happy Holiday!

************************** WAR stories **********************************

"Ah, a fresh day!  Nice sunshine, comforting breeze.  Perfect weather to pick up gold pots
inside the ruin."  Thought to himself while shaving, General W. H. smiled.    Suddenly, a
cold draft slipped into the tent.  W. H. shuddered and felt been watched somehow.  He turned
with sword already drawn in his left hand, and he was stunned to find Prince Moria stood before
him!

"My lord, aren't you at capital?"  W.H. couldn't hide his surprise.

"Ah, yes.  While I was prisoned in dungeon, learned a few tricks of magic and I found them
quite convenient."  Prince replied with a tone without feeling.

"So, you are also a magician..."  W. H. kept his thought to himself.

"How may I serve you?  Or do you want to see the gold ruin we are going to open today?"
W. H. asked.

"I am here to give you a new command.  Go to the other ruin and retrieve the Jump of Lewis."
Prince commanded.

"But...but that ruin is guarded by GREEN armies and we had an agreement with them......" W. H. was confused.

"Silent!" Prince roared, "I am not here to ask for your opinion!  Our force is weak and out-numbered.  
The only way to survive is having flying armies.  Not one or two, but a whole brigade!"

W. H. opened his mouth but no sound was out....

"I see you are not quite fit as my general.  However, I still need you to stand by me so that 
troops will reckon me as a leader.  May be you need a change of heart."  Prince smiled wickedly.

"Of course, my lord, I will....*SCREAM*" W. H. was horrified to find out Prince's left hand 
suddenly stick into his chest and the last thing he saw before faint was his guts been pull out
by the dark hands........

Opened a skin sack around his waist, Prince Moria retrieved a black mass.  It is a set of guts and
heart is beating!  Chanting ancient words of magic, he let the black guts floated into the air.  And
it fell into the empty chest of stiff general in a flash of black light!

"Rise, my general!  And obey my command!"  Shouted sound can be heard around the camp.

W. H. opened his eyes.  He seemed to remember something but he didn't pause a second to kneel
before Moria.  "My troops is ready, my lord.  We will take the ruin by the end of the day."

Nodded his agreement, Prince Moria stepped out of the tent.  While he vanishing into the air, he 
seemed to recall there was a small boy in the heart of the dungeon that lost his heart to a demon.
And the demon looks so much alike Barlog...........

==============================================================================

Dude looks around at the battlefield. "So, wormy, your going off and
wreaking havoc in London and starting an attack on the Athletes before we
had declared war seems to have backfired. We've lost our Griffin factory in
Los Angeles quite probably thanks to you and have to fight a strong
opponent in a weakened state."
"Yeah, right, so I should have just hung around in the open and let the Sun
King clobber me."
"Silence, for your isolence you will be in the forefront of the attack on a
prepared and annoyed enemy. Leave me now, I must make war plans with our
new ally."

Dude sends Howard and Jane a dozen cases of Foster's each to cement the
alliance (whether this will have a positive or detrimental effect will
depend on their taste in beer). "We are most glad to have you as allies,
Reporters, and consider your recent sacking of Los Angeles a minor
annoyance in our glorious road to victory. Lets us celebrate together at
the War BOT Temple with much alcohol, song and genrally getting blessed."
Dude sends a couple of Ghosts on ahead to make ready for the festivities.
On of them gets into the good stuff and starts getting blessed early.

Diplomatic Message: Athletes (Orange), this is a formal declaration of war.
Thank you for sparing my Giant Worm, and I haven't touched any of your
units or unprotected cities (I wouldn't have this round even if you hadn't
been as careful as you have been), but for now until events take a very
different turn or we reach the end, "All's fair in love and war." Silly
quote, while I shouldn't have taken London I certainly prefer knowing what
to expect from whom and generally play accordingly.

Reporters (Green), we are glad to accept your truce. Methinks it will serve
us both very well to stay away from each others cities and allow you to
focus on the destruction of the Spectators (Blue) and me on vanquishing the
Athletes (Orange). As you have Montreal & Moscow I lay claim to Dublin and
Seoul. Sorry about blocking access to the temple, the consequences of
allowing Athletes access to it were unacceptable to my forces (and they
wouldn't have done you a lot of good either).

==============================================================================
For who knows why???? the Sun King & Queen (who by the way is now an Amazon
str. 6) had war declared upon them again by Organizers (white).  Perhaps
our peacefull nature is misconstrued as weakness.
Our citizens were frightened and alarmed!  We are trustworthy, but once
crossed, fight viciously!

Organizers (white)
Soooo, you want a fight!!!  OK!!  but you'll be fighting with!!!
One less Giant Worm (dead)
One less Archon     (dead)
and sad but true, ONE LESS HERO (dead)

by carefull passing of a battle item from Sun Queen to King we were able to
capture and occupy Berlin!

I seriously doubt if you will have any ghosts or heroes left after
Reporters turn!
Peace is not now an option :-(

Reporters (Green)

It's sad that white decided to make me his target when the spoils of my
victory are closer to you.  Oh well, you have problems of your own with
Spectators (blue).  We've been thinking about Atlanta and realize this has
great strategic importance to you and Blue.  Even though I won it fair and
square (when neutral),  I would be willing to exchange it for  comparable
city, or an item!

Blue (Spectators)

Once again our peace holds, and your progress is great!  I noticed your
griffin moving NW of Lake Placid.  I could have easily taken this griffin
out with my wizard and been left invulnerable!  But, as you have seen with
Organizers (white), I do not like taking first blood.  In their weakened
state I could easily turn my attention toward you, but as long as you abide
by your original proposal and I see no movement toward my kingdom, I will
continue to wipe up White and peace will reign (-:
BTW- The same conditions for Atlanta hold for you as well, a fair exchange:
(like Sydney or Lake Placid or item).  Any other city in my kingdom that
was taken would be seen as an act of war.

The following diplomatic history message is from "Elam T. Birnbaum" <elam> and is being sent to all the players of the Warlords II game "A01".

Ok, as per the Preliminary Rules, I did the following:

1) Retreated all Green forces to the cities they were nearest to.
2) The rules do not specify this, but I took the initiative to do this. One
of Green's heros was on top of a planted standard. Technically, I would be
required only tyo move his stack towards the nearest castle, without
picking up the standard. However, in this case, I picked up the standard,
moved the stack to the nearest city (which he couldn't wuite reach), and
replanted the standard. I did this because the idea of the Preliminary
Phase is to retreat forces, not change builds, vectors, or anything else.
Had Green vectored units to his standard, but the standard was left
undefended or not planted, those buids would be bounced, which would
violate the spirit of the Preliminary Phase.

Now, Blue can go now by ending Green's turn and proceed normally. Hopefully
Don Ehrigi ca contact us before his next turn comes around (which I think
has a good chance of hapenning because of the upcoming holidays). If he is
still gone, we'll have to implement the Static Defense. I'll get into that
if it arrives.

In the meantime, Don, please let us know your situation. The game must go on.

The following diplomatic history message is from Greg Ehrig <gehrig@cris.com> and is being sent to all the players of the Warlords II game "A01".

KING DON EHRIGI, ADDRESS TO THE UNITED PRESS PARLIAMENT

Yesterday, December 7, 1997--a date which will live in infamy--the United
Press Reporters were suddenly and deliberately attacked by land and air
forces of the Empire of the Spectators.

The Reporters were at peace with that Nation and, at the solicitation of
the Spectators, were still in conversation with its Government and its
Emperor looking toward the maintenance of peace. Indeed, one hour after the
Spectator air squadrons had commenced bombing in Nagano, the Spectator
Ambassador to the Reporters and his colleague delivered to the Secretary of
State a formal reply to a recent Reporter message. While this reply stated
that it seemed useless to continue the existing diplomatic negotiations, it
contained no threat or hint of war or armed attack.

It will be recorded that the distance of Nagano from the Spectators makes
it obvious that the attack was deliberately planned many days or even weeks
ago. During the intervening time the Spectator Government has deliberately
sought to deceive the Reporter Government by false statements and
expressions of hope for continued peace.


Yesterday the Spectators also launched an attack against Innsbruck.

Last night Specator forces attacked Sarajevo.

This morning the Spectators attacked Midway Island.

The Spectator nation has, therefore, undertaken a surprise offensive
extending throughout the South central area. The facts of yesterday speak
for themselves. The people of the Reporters have already formed their
opinions and well understand the implications to the very life and safety
of our Nation.

As Commander in Chief of the Army and Air Force I have directed that all
measures be taken for our defense.

Always will we remember the character of the onslaught against us.

No matter how long it may take us to overcome this premeditated invasion,
the Reporter people in their righteous might will win through to absolute
victory.

I believe I interpret the will of the Parliament and of the people when I
assert that we will not only defend ourselves to the uttermost but will
make very certain that this form of treachery shall never endanger us again.

Hostilities exist. There is no blinking at the fact that our people, our
territory, and our interests are in grave danger.

With confidence in our armed forces--with the unbounded determination of
our people--we will gain the inevitable triumph--so help us God.

I ask that the Parliament declare that since the unprovoked and dastardly
attack by The Spectators on Sunday, December 7, a state of war has existed
between the Reporters and the Spectator Empire.

Report Game  A01, turn 6, side 3: Reporters:
=============================================
Beginning Turn:  cities 14 gold 112 +300 -149


Dragon takes Oslo, no defenders.

Heavy Infantry built in Oslo
Giant Bats built in Oslo

Hero Jane Pauley takes Atlanta
--Thanks Athletes--

Final Stats:
Cities 11 gold 81+240-108


To White:
I accept your parley offer, I will not press attacks against you, as you
undoubtedly will have your hands full against the Athletes.   Please note,
when conducting strategic planning, however, how quickly I could shift my
forces back towards you.  If you were to attack me, Orange would certainly
exploit her  preeminince and crush you, if not now, then later.

To Blue:

Japan was defeated for two reasons.  One, because she woke a sleeping giant
with much more industrial capacity than she held, and two, because she
failed to look after her commerce.   Learn from history, and I owe you one
for being so honorable.


To Orange,
You are certainly doing very well this turn in terms of diplomacy.   Please
accept my marker for a future favor.

Since the game was set to BLUE's turn when Don reported
back, so now the game is showing WHITE's turn instead of
mine.  

Don't worry, I will use "query" command to send out the gamefile once I
finish and then WHITE can use the old way
to continue the turn.  It is lucky that we are in tournament
vacation time, timeout will take 20 days and I sure don't 
need that long to  finish my turn :)

Just a note to Don:  Don't be grateful for my action.  I like
to slaughter in fair condition rather than won by rules :)

I hope he was not offering one of my city :)

GREEN:  Isn't this fun?  We can have a major fight next turn.  Time to sharpening your sword 
and tight up your bows.  Christmas time is fighting time!!!  HOWEVER, if you do the following
three things, I will spare your hero's life:
	1. Disband the DEVIL in your army.
	2. Retreat your troops from Atlanta and Oslo.  OK, you can leave the Giant bat.
	3. Leave your standard inside Oslo when you retreat and never tread within 20 paces
of any BLUE city.

Nice Move, Greg!  Didn't see that coming though :)
This will be a better present for me than what I thought you might do.  It teaches me a hard lesson
that I will definitely remember in the future tournament.  Let's play this scenario out and see what
happens.

I am rather glad that I learn this lesson on a sub game, not on my official game.  Whew, that will 
be sad :(

The war drum is beating!  Major battle is at hand!!!

Ok, as per the Preliminary Phase, I have retreated the white troops not
inside cities to the nearest city. Several stacks couldn't make in in one
turn, so if Joe doesn't show up by the time the next turn shows up, I'll
continue their movements to the nearest castle (they will all fully make it
next turn). Also, I ended Joe's turn and saved the game when the splash
screen was displayed for orange.

So it is Jim's turn now and we'll see what happens when it becomes Greg's
turn after that.

Let the game continue!

you
only comply 1 request of mine ( i.e. retreat from Oslo) and didn't
disband
your devil, nor left your standard, so I decided to help you with that
:)
You must have fun getting rid of my hero.  But thanks to you, I now have
a 
better command item than standard.  8-)~

ORANGE: guess you will have a good time cleaning up WHITE.....

The following message was sent on Wednesday January 28, 1998 at 12:00 PM EST
by "Elam T. Birnbaum" <elam> to all players;

Ok, since Joe still hasn't resurfaced, I am continuing with the "Standing
Orders" as per Tournament Headquarter's request. The only thing I did was
to retreat the last two stacks to the nearest castle. From now on (for the
rest of the 2 weeks Joe has for "additional absences") Joe's turn will be
skipped by Jim (I won't get involved directly anymore). Here is what should
happen:

1) Hsiao-Chiu sends his gamefile normally through the Remailer. All of us
get a copy of the gamefile (including Joe).

2) Jim will open the gamefile, reject any white heros that might be
offered, and immediately end the turn and save the gamefile as if it was
Joe's gamefile (i.e. renaming the file so that it the turn and player
number is correct).

3) Jim must the compress that gamefile and send it through the Remailer so
that the Remailer registers Joe's turn.

4) Jim can then work on his own turn from this gamefile and he has 2 days
as usual to get his turn out.

This procedure is set up so that the Remailer properly registers the
correct player's turn and that everyone will receive all gamefiles, even if
practically nothing happened with White that turn.

This procedure will not continue forever. It is only as long as the
Standing Orders are used (2 weeks since the Preliminary Phase). If Joe
hasn't contacted us since then, he will be turned into a Static Defense,
his name will be removed from the game's mailing list, and Jim no longer
has to get out two gamefiles, just his own (since the game will essentially
be a three player game).

The gamefile will now follow.

Diplomatic message to Green
Glad your back :-)  We were developing a stratagy that figured you gone!
 A moment of silence for Jane Pauley ;-(
Our advisors think you had some misunderstanding regarding Atlanta, even
Blue mentioned "am I missing somthing?"  We were not giving it away until a
suitable offer had been made by either you or Blue!  Since two turns have
gone by without any offer, We took Moscow as payment, as it lines up in our
hemisphere better than Atlanta, sorry about the 2 lt inf.  Sun King moving
SW is looking for ruins and artifacts!

Diplomatic message to Blue
A moment of silence for Barlog ;-(
Our truce contines :-)  We understand your desire to take Lake Placid back,
but would not want to see any further build up or movement of forces North,
as our kingdom would see that as aggressive!
Isn't this the year of the Tiger, is that a good omen?

Greg Ehrig's turn is skipped as per the Preliminary Phase. The only troop
movement was to retreat a hero stack to the nearest castle, which it could
not reach this turn.

No change in anything.

*********** DIPLOMATIC MESSAGE ***************

To WHITE:  Gosh, we are the only two players left and you are MUCH stronger than I am...

Oh, well, if you got that pot of gold at the only gold ruin left, I am doomed.  If I stay where I am
and waiting your mighty armies gathered around center cities, I am doomed too.  It seems no
matter what I do, the fate is all the same.  Might as well have some fun before I kiss the dust.

Of course, if you are looking for a more interesting game to play with human rather than 
boring robots, I am game.  As long as you don't take the gold ruin and don't move any
armies south of Atlanta, I will not initiate any attacks on your side.  Please also keep the
Atlanta intact as a buffer between us.  

Then again, the radical moves I made may cause an even earlier departure....  Who knows :)

Hope GREEN comes back, I even open up a city for GREEN !!!

This is Joe's (White) Static Defense turn. After this he will be eliminated
from the game and Gem (Orange) will skip the Static Defense's turn every
time he receives a gamefile from Prince Moria as per the instructions I
laid out earlier (basically skip the turn). Remember that a Static Defense
hero's items are off limits.

The following changes were made:

1) A build of light infantry was purchased in IOC for +2 defense.
2) All units were moved to the bottom two squares of the cities so that
non-enhanced units are segregated from enhanced units.
3) White was switched to "Enhanced" mode, meaning that any new arriving
units will be at +2 strength. So, a griffon has a base strength of 8, or 10
in a city.

No change in anything else. This will be the last turn message for White.

The following message was sent on Tuesday February 10, 1998 at 10:50 AM EST
by "Elam T. Birnbaum" <elam> to all players;

Ok, as predicted, Don Ehrigi is a lost player and since we did the
preliminary phase last turn, he will be fully converted to a Static Defense
this turn. The following was done:

1) All troops were moved to the bottom two spaces. All new units are
enhanced and will appear on the top two spaces.

2) The green hero stack, which is the only green stack out in the open, was
retreating towards one of his own castles which is now orange. Therefore,
he is retreating towards another of his castles. It will take several turn
for him to get there (more on this later).

3) I built a light infantryman in the green castle that built nothing as
per the Static Defense rules. He had no more money, so no other builds were
made.

4) After this message, I will delete Don from the game ans it will become a
two player game.

Ok, now, this is what Prince Moria will have to do:

1) When you receive the gamefile from Gem, you must go into the green turn,
so a MOVE ALL, and then end it. Do your own turn normally. Since Don is
deleted, there is no need to send more than one gamefile. It is very
important that you do a move all because there is still one green stack out
in the open.

2) If, as a result of actions you or Gem take, the castle that the green
hero stack is heading towards is not green anymore when he finally arrives,
make sure to note this in a query mail to me. I will then look at the
gamefile and tell you which new castle he should head towards. I won't deal
with the file itself since telling you will go faster.

That should cover things. Lets get this game going! I expect the turns to
go fast enough to have us catch up to the rest of the games...
