Polaris Day 96 News From: "Kerry Harrison" <kerry@madhousepress.com> Date: Mon, 13 Dec 1999 00:00:00 +0000 http://www.daredevil.f9.co.uk/ MAIN BULLETIN - Day 96 Cenarchad Incorporated to Arm Agrommans? Unidentified sources today revealed details of an agreement apparently reached between the Crab Nebula Coalition and Solidarity, the Zodiac corporation responsible for administering the Agromman Colony Kyop. Presumably using Cenarchad Incorporated as an intermediary, the leak suggests that the Governor of Kyop is ready to upgrade his security forces with the new Sentinel Light Assault Weapon; a rifle presently being manufactured by the Crab Nebula Coalition. The deal will surely generate controversy in the Frontier Terrritories, which recently began to show signs of rising racial tensions. Some evidence suggests that the deal is at an early stage. Whether Cenarchad will be involved in shipping arms to the Agromman Colony is as yet unknown. Experts were tonight predicting that other parties in the Frontier Territories might well begin to re-appraise their security arrangements. OTHER NEWS Bent Products and GSD Join Forces New Munich News Group today broadcast a press conference staged by Bent Products. The Agromman company employed the conference to welcome the newest member of the Agromman Coalition. Angra Palurok, chairman of the body, suggested that in future the Great Spoon Dynasty would be working closely with Bent Products as part of the organisation. The extent to which the two companies will work together is presently unclear. Palurok stated that the move comes as the conclusion to a "long standing and mutually beneficial relationship". The Agromman chairman went on to claim that this should highlight the growing strength of the Agromman Coalition, which is more than the work of a single company. Chairman Palurok claimed that "coalition membership is dependant upon both the interest and the needs of the Coalition and companies involved; the Coalition is a very flexible organisation that has been designed to weather both low and high membership numbers." Colonna Slams Racist Russets Colonna Frontier Broadcasting transmitted a tirade earlier in which Chairman Ramsey, of the Free Trade League, vociferously condemned the demonstration of the 'Sentinel Light Assault' rifle. Interviewed by a pacific Stefania Diaz, Mr Ramsey went on to state that "The Free Trade League condemns the use of terran silhouettes being blown to pieces in order to demonstrate the efficiency of a new Russet weapon." The outspoken Terran politician continued by suggesting that "the underlying implication is that Terrans are 'the enemy'. Cenarchad Incorporated is well advised not to incite the population of the Cirrus system to racism and xenophobia." Experts later claimed that Chairman Ramsey was trying develop the FTL into a stabilizing force in the Frontier Territories, partly to counter racial tensions. Up
