Dear Laura,
My Hand has decided to start a war with another Hand, something about more processing power, whatever that means. He's issued a draft and I've been selected to go, how do I get out of this?

Dear Soldier,
Processing power, completely unlike political power, can be bought. Inevitably a war will only cost your Hand more in resources, lives and time than simply working to buy a newer processor. It might be worth explaining this to him, as his motives sound a bit confused. Go and diplomatically suggest that he just needs to save up his pennies and get a newer processor, rather than go to war. You may also need to rally your friends to the cause in case he considers you a 'volunteer', though.
