sent to China
Oh great and awesome leader of the Germans, here is the message I have received from you:
Predesad of the wretched Americans,
I have good news and I have bad news. The good news is that Civaddict seems to have fixed his computer because he sent me the save. The bad news is you are being punished for your many crimes against the German people. The Germans have grown tired of your many wars against our people and prevent us from reaching our goal of launching a spaceship to Alpha Centauri. While the Germans realize that you also want to launch your spaceship, they feel that is no reason to stop they from realizing their dream. To that end you have received the first of many damaging blows to your people that will continue unless you formally submit to our demands.
1. You publicly announce that you were the sole cause of all the wars between the peaceful Germans and the war-mongering Americans.
2. You immediately pillage the uranium tile within your borders on this next turn. I will know you have done this by the trade screen. You may reconnect that uranium resource when you have learned the tech "Integrated Defense".
3. You will not receive a source of uranium from any other nation on earth. EVER!
4. You may reconnect your aluminum resource in which to build parts for your own spaceship starting this turn. We the peaceful Germans do not feel the need to prevent you from attempting to build your own spaceship at the earliest opportunity.
5. You must dismantle your entire army except for twenty-seven (27) infantry or mechanized infantry. This will allow you to keep the peace in your own cities. We realize you are a Democracy but should you ever switch to another form of government you will need those troops. We the peaceful Germans realize that in order to maintain stability throughout the world you must first maintain stability within your own nation.
6. These terms are non-negotiable. I eagerly await your response.

Land close to the American-German border was pillaged.
Land close to the Chinese border where a lot of your forces are stationed was pillaged. A few of your units there are damaged but not destroyed.
Aluminum resource was nuked. I don't know how many or what units you had there, but I think they are gone.
German losses
26 Panzers
2 Mech Infantry
We are certain this is some kind of mistake, and we also laugh at the fact that your losses seem to outwiegh our own. In your response to your demands:
1) As leader of the Americans I have only been at war with your nation once. When I took over as leader, my nation was at war with you and we immediately negotiated peace after conferring with China who was signed to an alliance with you. I will certainly not claim responsibility for any of those wars. As for the brief skirmish, I have always accepted responsibility for that, even publicly, but if you wish me to do so again, I will gladly do so, I think I already have, hope that was sufficient.
2) I will most certainly not pillage the uranium in my own land, I would rather build ICBMs to nuke all your resources since you have nuked mine, rather convenient that I also have the technology to build them now & will start cranking them out. However, as a part of a peace treaty I would be willing to agree not to build any ICBMs if you would also agree to the same.
3) I doubt I will ever need to recieve uranium form another nation since I plan to keep my own.
4) We have plans for reclaiming our aluminum resource, thank you for your concern, and we are grateful that you have given us this permission, but it was rather not needed.
5) We have disbanded some units from time to time when it has met our needs, and we will be willing to disband our units if you also disband yours. However, I would at this time like to point out that as a Democracy I am much more capable of paying 1 gpt /unit than you will be as a republic at 2 gpt /unit, massing troops could get rather expensive for you, so perhaps it is best if we both just disband them.
6) The terms of peace make me laugh. I am withdrawing all my units into my borders where you are not permitted to touch them. GO ahead and attack the stragglers, save me some unit support. Pillage the rails & roads, take some of my resources, do whatever you want. I am simply going to build ICBM's and nuke every resource of yours that is not within your borders. Plus my bombers & fighters will soon start bombing your units from the safety of my own borders. All the while you will be forfeiting your hopes of reaching Alpha Centauri, Cleopatra on the other hand will laugh all the way to the moon and beyond. I have no problem with that, do you?
Notice to other civilizations - any nation trying to take over my resources will be punished.
