New HTTP status code just dropped.

**506 - Service Unavailable Due To Hostilities**

The web server responds with this code when it is unable to handle the request due to equipment or infrastructure damage caused by hostile action, or for political reasons such as a state of war existing between the server's home nation and that of the agent. The agent should delay resubmitting the request until a peace treaty has been signed.
