In one daring swoop, our troubleshooters obliterated the control center of your spacecraft with ease. Perhaps your people would do well to remember that in space, no one can hear you scream when the hull of your precious ship is torn asunder. No doubt this project of yours is merely a cover for a plan to place nuclear silos in space where you could strike any target you so desired with impunity. Already you have launched nuclear missiles without warning. Alpha Complex, however, sees this as a direct threat. Byzantium Complex has been developing the technology to launch entire cities into space. In response to this wanton act of slaughter carried out by these traitors, our Armed Forces have struck a mighty blow. It was not Alpha Complex who first unleashed nuclear weapons upon the world, it was the traitorous Byzantium Complex! Our device was merely meant for peaceful occupation, that the recently inducted citizens of Alpha Complex might be reminded of the power of our great Complex. In an act of unprovoked aggression, Byzantine Complex has launched nuclear missiles at AZC sector, murdering millions of citizens and destroying a precious piece of R&D tech.

My fellow citizens, today is a dark day for the world.

Surely the loss of such a small quantity would not jeopardize the goodwill existing between our peoples? What actions might Persia be able to take to make up for this act?Ī message to all Complexes from your Friend, The Computer If our proposal to the United Nations council succeeds we would end the development of these infernal weapons and repurpose the green stones for peaceful power solutions. Our geologists report that your people have access to an abundance of the material and our diplomats say your scientists have not been shy in using it to create terrible weaponry. We assumed your people would not care what we took from the Aztecs but the timing of your conquest was such that by sheer technicality the land was yours. In fact, the entire purpose of the acquisition of Hadrumetum was to secure access to the ore, which our military council believes is vital to the security of the Persian people. The acquisition of the land and specifically the Uranium beneath the land was a project that began over a decade ago and our General did not appear to stop and question his orders upon the news that ownership of the land had left the Aztecs.
