[title] I Saw Three Ships
[desc] @@NAME@@ has managed to avoid direct involvement in a recent conflict between the warring states of Marche Noire and Marche Blanche thus far. However, you were just notified half an hour ago that a trio of badly-damaged destroyers from Marche Noire is sailing towards @@ANIMAL@@ City, seeking sanctuary from a fleet of Marche Blanchian battleships pursuing them.
[validity] has computers? (radio)
[option] "@@LEADER@@, we're in dire straits," pleads @@RANDOMNAME@@, captain of one of the ships, over the radio. "We're low on fuel and taking water fast - our ships are barely staying afloat! @@ANIMAL@@ City is the only port we can hope to reach before the Marche Blanchian fleet catches us. Please, we're weary of war and willing to lay down our weapons. This is our most desperate hour. Help us, @@LEADER@@, you're our only hope!"
[effect] there's nothing that pleading and begging can't get you
[option] Marche Blanchian ambassador pulls away the receiver and begins to yell into it. "You are beaten. It is useless to resist!" He looks up sheepishly and straightens his tie, as he awkwardly attempts to put down the receiver. "Ahem - excuse my unprofessional behavior. This is a military conflict - it stays between them and us. Now @@LEADER@@, it would not be a very wise move to get yourself involved in someone else's war, so how about we go our separate ways and forget this ever happened? For the mutual benefit of our nations, of course."
[effect] the nation's international policy is to 'walk softly and look the other way'
[option] "No — this is a chance to help these nations make peace!" cries your Minister of Diplomacy as she desperately tries to get back in contact with the captain. "Let's get both the damaged ships as well as the pursuers to shore, and see if we can call in leaders from both sides. Right then and there, we can hash out a peace deal — two mortal enemies, tired from war and looking each other in the eye, agreeing to set their weapons down in the name of peace! Now that's a happy ending if I've ever heard one!"
[effect] police urge both parties involved in domestic violence to 'sit down and talk it out'
