:siren::siren::siren: ON MY NEXT TURN I INTEND TO CONVENE THE PLANETARY COUNCIL TO ELECT A PLANETARY GOVERNOR so start scheming! :siren::siren::siren:



I hope that I can count on my Pact Brothers and Sisters to side with myself, Chairman Yang of the Wu-Tang Hive, in the upcoming election. Remember my recent generosity and know that more will follow! Together we will create a perfect society and work to alleviate the burdensome impact of egregious regulation by repealing UN Charter bans on atrocities.
also this guy is trying to get me detained by the tsa? can you really trust someone who wants to make these turns even longer

you don't have everyone's commlink frequency because yang refuses to share them with you. he thinks you can't be trusted. but you know who did share commlink frequencies with you, and without demanding anything in return? that's right, your good friend corazón santiago. unlike the human hive, the spartan federation believes that open communication channels are the first step towards prosperity. vote with your heart -- vote corazón. thank you.

Anyway, Zakharov means progress, all we want is free hand to pursue all the research goals we choose - we have no interest in conquest, only peaceful scientific achievement. If in charge, we will endeavor to keep Planet stable and peaceful. We will also share humanitarian resources and technology if necessary and will promote sharing such developments between all factions. vote for us

:siren: The Planetary Council has convened and the race for Planetary Governor is underway!!! :siren:



Here are your candidates:


Captain Ulrik "SmokaDustbowl" Svensgaard, Commander of the Nautilus Pirates

quote:

"The sea ... vast, mysterious ... and full of wealth! And the nations of Planet send their trade across it without a thought. Well, the sea doesn't care about them, so it lets them pass. But we can give the sea a little hand in teaching the landlubbers a lesson in humility."

-- Captain Ulrik Svensgaard, "The Ripple and the Wave"



Colonel Corazón "anthonypants" Santiago, Commander of the Spartan Federation

quote:

"Superior training and superior weaponry have, when taken together, a geometric effect on overall military strength. Well-trained, well-equipped troops can stand up to many more times their lesser brethren than linear arithmetic would seem to indicate."

-- Col. Corazon Santiago, "Spartan Battle Manual"



Academician Prokhor "Luigi Thirty" Zakharov, Commander of the University of Planet

quote:

"The substructure of the universe regresses infinitely towards smaller and smaller components. Behind atoms we find electrons, and behind electrons quarks. Each layer unraveled reveals new secrets, but also new mysteries."

-- Prokhor Zakharov, "For I Have Tasted The Fruit"


As I am not in the running I have decided to throw my support behind Colonel Santiago! Good luck everyone!

nah that's in the base game ofc we're also playing crossfire. also i don't think it's as heinous as you think, it's literally just ~+100 energy for each faction

unless you're thinking of removing sanctions lol... http://civilization.wikia.com/wiki/Planetary_Council_(SMAC)
