Or go with something completely original. Depends on what you wish to write about.

Hmm, well not exactly. I mean, you can take the same data and reword so it's not exactly the same. I give you permission to use my factbook as reference, should you want to. Link:

Is that a suitable answer as to why I asked the question or is something else needed ?

Urmanian, I've sent you TGs that ye didn't respond.

Maybe Urmanian is away, or perhaps he doesn't want to respond?

So... just a heads up. Tonight, I'm going to watch "Guardians of the Galaxy" with my family, so I'll be taking tonight off.

Away?!! I AM ANGRY DAG-NABBIT!

Considering how awkward your telegrams are, I'm not surprised.

Tis because Urmanian was supposed to add the Novaya Equestrian Mechanized Infantry, dagnabbit!

Nixon: EMpty?!! I'm EMPTY DAGNABBIT!

Qualcosa che non era pertinente alla conversazione. Perdonatemi.

Sorry if this offends, Novaya, but you're a rather weird individual in my opinion.

Eeyup.

Let's end this conversation before it gets heated, shall we?

I am cringing internally right now

But internal cringing is the best cringing.

Also, got issue 363, the one about your people worshiping you (and whether you should let them). These are relevant:

High Laws of Xarxis:
X. Under no circumstances may the Grand Minister declare themselves a deity.

This dispatch:

FORESHADOWING Chance Rolls:
1d4 = 4, natural max roll doubles other results
1d6 = 4+4 = 8, overcharge by 2
1d8 = 5+5 = 10, overcharge by 2
1d10 = 3+3 = 6, undercharge by 4
1d12 = 1+1 = 2, undercharge by 10
1d20 = 6+6 = 12, undercharge by 8

1d100 + End charge = 82+(-18) = 64
FORESHADOWING fails by 26

You want to know how I got this way? Well it all started seven years after my election, when I found some rather interesting books...

I was looking through some old records from my mother's brief stint as Queen, just out of boredom. One of them was full of old laws, including one of my mother's first acts as High Minister: the insertion of a loophole into the Ministry:

In times of crisis, the Minister may declare emergency and be granted unlimited authority for the duration of the emergency, under the assumption that said authority will be used to end the crisis quicker than the Ministry's legislative processes would normally allow.

I don't think she meant for it to be used the way I used it, since she became Queen through different methods, but it was there all the same. And since this was a recent reprinting of the old book, the loophole was still valid. I thought about testing it, since the Ministry was handling the war with Nova Xarxa rather poorly, and I would like to have more control over Xarxis... but I got rid of that thought quickly. I didn't want to follow my mother's hoofsteps and nearly start a revolution.

So I decided to look through some other old books. I found the secret to my immortality then, though I was horrified at first. Oh, how foolish I was back then, still believing in Schaad, still hoping to spend eternity in the Grey when I died. Despite my naivety, I kept the tome. "Purely to keep it away from those who would actually use it," I told myself.

FORESHADOWING Chance Rolls:
1d4 = 3+3 = 6, overcharge by 2
1d6 = 6, natural max roll doubles other results
1d8 = 2+2 = 4, undercharge by 4
1d10 = 6+6 = 12, overcharge by 2
1d12 = 10+10 = 20, overcharge by 8
1d20 = 19+19 = 38, overcharge by 18

1d100 + End charge = 30+26 = 56
FORESHADOWING fails by 44

A few months later, with that book in my possession, I received word of an... interesting movement amongst my ponies. Apparently, they wanted to worship me! But the issue of the High Laws stood as a roadblock on that path, and I was not always so used to being revered and praised by my lessers as I am now.

But one of my advisors pointed out that if they people declared me a deity and I accepted it, it was not a breach of the Laws. I wasn't sure at the time, but if my ponies wanted to place me beside Schaad in the Grey, who was I to stop them...?

FORESHADOWING Chance Rolls:
1d4 = 1+1+1 = 3, undercharge by 1
1d6 = 2+2+2 = 6, neutral charge
1d8 = 8+8 = 16, natural max roll doubles other results, overcharge by 8
1d10 = 10+10 = 20, natural max roll doubles other results, overcharge by 10
1d12 = 9+9+9 = 27, overcharge by 15
1d20 = 7+7+7 = 21, overcharge by 1

1d100 + End charge = 93+33 = 126
FORESHADOWING succeeds by 26

To be continued.

Read dispatch

Hmm...

I'll... think on this a while.

Military factbook updated, and added one of the scariest prototype weapons of the Stahlaren arsenal!

I believe this offends insufficiently. Being weird is not always bad. You need to be more specific.
