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: To: All Factions in the Rantlu/Glomera Area

Greetings Residents,

During the last two weeks, two units have been assasinated in Rantlu!
Not that we lost money, or anything, but it is rather annoying -
Therefore if you have any units here - REVEAL FACTION and contact
me!

Any unidentified units will be summarily executed.

Regards,

The Legate,
Dragon Legions (93).
Republic of Rome.

Subject: Hey-what happened to my lumberjacks?

Anyone have an idea of why my lumberjacks decided not to work?

The orders:
Unit 7050
produce lum

Unit 8754
produce lum

The response:
UNIT (7050): PRODUCE: Can't produce that
UNIT (8754): PRODUCE: Can't produce that

Both units have lumberjack skill, the area that they're in has plenty of wood,
and both were funded last turn.  (Oh, and I'm trade/war, and only produce in
four hexes)  If anyone knows, please send a hint since it's seriously annoying.

Sorry about this but due to a balls up in my orders some of my people seem to
have been sent to krod. They will only stay for as long as it takes to train
aportal leader to get them out of there and back to AC. Around 4 months

The units are:

Unit (6511)
Unit (6536)
Unit (6543)
Unit (6552)
Unit (6553)
Unit (6559)

They will pose no threat to anyone and I would appreciate it if they could be
left alone as this will speed their exit

Cheers

AUGGGHH

Sorry to bother you guys about it- stupid error.  (The really sad part is that
I've had them producing wood for many turns, but I took a turn off to up them
to lvl 2 and didn't check my old orders.)

Excuse me while I go pound my head against a (still standing) tree.

It should be PRODUCE WOOD.  There's no such item as lumber.

You should have used "produce wood".  You study lumber and produce wood.

Greetings All,

The Order of the Blue Flame has decided to join the fray of
magic teachers. We are planing to offer the following classes:

energy 3
        ethereal 2
        construct 3
        life 2
        mind 3

Keep in mind that this is just a limit. Do you Want Energy 2? Sure,
we can do that. What about mind 1? Yup, That too. The best part
because prices are scattered through a large range ( Ive seen 20 - 50 )
I will be in the mean with only 35. Hurry now and Ill throw in the approiate
spells.
