Errors to csd@microplex.com
Now there should be a digest whenever (a) there are 10 emails
or (b) whenever there is an email waiting for more than 48 hours
for a digest to be completed.
So don't get worried if the digest has only 1 or 2 emails, that
just means the list has been slow.
(I hope it works)

Subject: PCP vs RoR

Sorry about the Spam - but I forgot to send in my Times article,
and news like this really shouldn't be delayed by a week. (At
least I know some guys who'd be pretty happy to see this.)

Regards,
The Legate.

The War against the PCP (Part 3 and a half)
__________________________________________________________________

Legate Zack watched as the blithely advancing Pirates stumbled
right into the trap he and Cirrius had carefully prepared for them.
For months now, the troops had been retreating, while reinforcements
were brought to the front-line. They had beeen subjected to the jeers
of their enemy, while being forced to watch their rightful lands
brurning behind them.
  The pirates had been too fast - the delaying tactic had not worked
as planned. None of his own mages had arrived in time to join the
battle. And now the waiting was over - with or without the promised
fireballs, they would begin the wearisome task of throwing the Pirates
of Roman lands.
  Roman steel sang in the air as battle was joined. The ghosts of Jaca
would rest easier after this day's work...

MAGIC APPRENTICESHIPS AVAILABLE

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

The Rosicrucian order is seeking factions that wish to be apprenticed
in the arts of magic.

An apprenticeship will entitle you to having your maintenance and study
costs payed, free teaching and free spells. In return you would perform
certain tasks (such as the manufacture of magical items), and perhaps
be asked to go on quests. Apprenticeship would also include membership
of an alliance that can provide you with safety.

Potential candidates should contact me via: matthew@te.rl.ac.uk

Sorry for the wasting the bandwidth ...

I would like to sign up for your classes in etherial.

I would like unit 266 and 2527 (faction 1055) to study.
They have no training in etherial at the present time.

Please let me know the cost (I assume that the $0 cost
was a typo), which unit to send the silver to and which
faction to declare friendly.

Thanks,

The PCP (Pathetic Cowardly Pirates) have struck again!  Maybe you should
contact the RoR for help.

Based on the RoR's battle, it looks like the Pathetic Cowardly Pirates
have gotten what they deserve.  I can't wait till they wipe that
whining ass stain Ershwin.
