All Hail Emperor DungeonMaster! The Taurus War has ended!

Breaking news: The Taurus War has ended decisively in favor of DungeonMaster of the Cyborg.

On this day, on the 24th year of the Nu calendar, the Imperial Senate of the Echo Cluster recognizes DungeonMaster of the Cyborg as the Almighty Commander of the 11 races, hereafter known as the Emperor of the Echo Cluster!

All Hail Emperor DungeonMaster!

The Taurus War has been a 110 turn war of many faces for all the commanders who manipulated their neighbors, gave up like cowards, or fought like demons to the death. Through it all Emperor DungeonMaster assimilated planet after planet and made key technological acquisitions, particularly a fruitful trade for Loki Anti-Cloaking technology which ultimately left his chief rival Othrym of the Privateers unable to stop his advance. His Excellency dominated a field of top commanders from the other races in the same destructive, immovable fashion as the battles which saw him rise to power as Supreme Commander of the Cyborg. He truly belongs on the throne as the first Emperor.

Year 0024 will now be officially known as the 1st Year of the Reign of DungeonMaster.

As his first official act as Emperor of the Echo Cluster the Imperial Senate has asked the Emperor to commission a new Ship Hull Design to use as his command ship. Once designed by Emperor DungeonMaster the new Cyborg ship will be named by the Senate and become available to be researched for Campaign battles by all future Cyborg commanders.
