[code:1:64da0f00ce]TO ALL:

The Signatory Nations henceforth agree that biological and chemical weapons of massed destruction are inherently neccessary to the protection of any modern nation, and that to continue to develop more and more toxic chemicals and ever-more virulent strains of biological pathogens, nations require a steady protection from those who regard biochem weapons of massed destruction to be unethical. Furthermore, the Signatory Nations assert that such nations do exist, and will stop at nothing to prevent them from asserting their just and fair right to develop weapons designed to slaughter ever-larger numbers of human beings.

The purpose of this treaty shall be to proliferate the development and stockpiling of biological and chemical weapons of massed destruction. Signatory nations shall agree to aid one another to increase weapons production.

I. The Signatory Nations shall foster the development of biological and chemical weapons of massed destruction (hereby called WMD) between one another.

a. The undersigned nations agree to found an international research organisation dedicated to pursuing ever-more powerful biochemical WMD.

b. The undersigned nations agree to the free exchange of biochem research between other signatories.

c. The undersigned nations shall agree to contribute resources and manpower to assisting other signatories to develop biochem WMD.

II. The Signatory Nations shall foster the development of biological and chemical WMD in the world.

a. The undersigned nations agree to increase production of biochem WMD by at least 50%.

b. The undersigned nations agree to distribute research not deemed 'confidential' or 'top secret' regarding biochem WMD.

c. The undersigned nations agree to assist in the proliferation of biochemical arms to developing nations that they deem worthy of assistance, whether that worthiness be ideological, economic, political, social, racial, etc.

III. The Signatory Nations shall promise to defend the ideals of the World Biochem Proliferation Treaty, and promise to abide by the following rules:

a. No signatory shall use nuclear weapons on another signatory nation.

b. No signatory shall openly misuse or wantonly abuse their stockpiles of biochem WMD.

c. No signatory shall distribute biochem information deemed to be 'confidential' or 'top secret' in nature.

d. Signatories agree to treat other signatories with fairness and respect, and to protect the terms and ideals of the Treaty using their stockpiles of biochem WMD with fair and gentlemanly conduct.

We, the Undersigned Nations, do henceforth agree to the terms ratified by this Treaty:

Funny thing about the UN, they ban Biological weapons but not research and they don't ban Chemical weapons which we have a large stock pile of.

[bump?]

The Enlightened Psychotopia of Yn is proud to sign your treaty. We will immediately increase our extraction and processing of uranium, which we have left dormant far too long. More funding will be allocated to the development of bio-chemical weapons, and more particularly the manufactured virus known as "probody", which, when succesfully completed, should cause a victim's antibodies and immune system to turn against and destroy vital components of the blood (such as red cells) as though they were themselves foreign agents and viruses. Or so my scientists assure me.

We have kept mostly to ourselves over the past years. However, we would be willing to assist you in your endeavours, in return for protection against retaliatory strikes.


Dictator Zina Ramirez

Excellent

Thelas will gladly sign this treaty, we allready have a large stockpile of Chem weapons, and are speedily reaserching Bio weapons, because our millitary is composed entirly of Sindarin Elves, as is 95% of our nation, we can eficiently develope these weapons.

So far, we have not seen anyone extremely disliked signing the treaty. So we are more than willing to sign it, for mutual benefit.

The mass proliferation and eventual use of chemical weapons presents a very dangerous complixity to the health of the world. The time of withdrawl has ended. Further steps are now being exercised.

We put our support behind Pilot in this matter. This treaty will do nothing but decrease the stability of our world by polluting our people and our environment with your so-called "protection."

While we doubt that those who would sign or even think of signing such a treaty are reasonable enough to back down, we are obligated to give you that chance. Now.

We (along with our allies, the Diggers, who informed us of this thread) will also back Pilot on this matter.

As proffesional bio-chemists and gen-engineers, we know how completely devestating Bio-weapons can be, and will oppose their use (except in extremely controlled, and just, situations.) We see no reason why any nation should feel that they are insecure enough to resort to the use of bio-weapons without good reason.

While we can logically understand why some people would condemn the treaty (since the proliferation of weapons could put a nation’s national security at risk), what we can’t understand is the failure, that we see anyhow, by such nations in not engaging in talks with signatory nations and perhaps to reach some level of understanding.

Coded transmission sent to all members: We have tested the Virilium weapon and found it to be quite effective at dealing with the unrully slaves. They died within minutes of exposure. The spray range has been increased to a fine mist of about 35 meters. It is a very effective anti-troop weapon.

We offer the plans to you and are working on a liquid plutonium version, but that's being put off because of the stigma of radiation that seems to be everywhere.

Also we have a very effective shotgun weapon that is not a bio-chem weapon, but is extremely effective. Information and plans to both is below.

[No image availible]
Virilium Sprayer
Range: Medium
Enemy Demorialization: High
Damage Effectiveness: Very High

The sprayer works basicly like a flame thrower, but no flame. It flings the highly leathal liquid at the enemy, who die within minutes as the toxin attacks their nervous systems. Death is a relief, as their last few minutes are usualy spent coughing up their stmoach lining and wirthing around in pure agony. Several soldiers that were conducting the experimant took pity on the slaves that were in the test and shot them after about a minute. We are not including video or pctures as it quite literally could cause war if the capabilites of the weapon become known at this time when we are in the spotlight, as it were.

http://home.earthlink.net/~alpha_zero_usm/sitebuildercontent/sitebuilderpictures/dragon.jpg
The Dragon Shotgun
Blast range: Medium
Enemy Demoralization: High
Damage Effectiveness: High

The Dragon is a weapon we are very proud of. The shotgun is a reinforced 12 gauge. The real secret is the shells. The blast creates a bang that no shotgun before has and creates a temporary whiteout. The enemy caught in the blast literaly have their flesh melted off by the sheer heat of the slagged metal heading towards them. Small bunkers are perfect targets. The effect on morale is obvoius, they see two or three Dragon blasts and start to panic.

Most impressive. We are still working on the "probody" virus, but will let you know when it is ready to be put to use.

The Enlightened Psychotopia of Yn is proud to sign your treaty. We will immediately increase our extraction and processing of uranium, which we have left dormant far too long. More funding will be allocated to the development of bio-chemical weapons, and more particularly the manufactured virus known as "probody", which, when succesfully completed, should cause a victim's antibodies and immune system to turn against and destroy vital components of the blood (such as red cells) as though they were themselves foreign agents and viruses. Or so my scientists assure me.

We have kept mostly to ourselves over the past years. However, we would be willing to assist you in your endeavours, in return for protection against retaliatory strikes.


Dictator Zina Ramirez

We in Yn are proud to announce that, in follow-up to our previous statement, we have completed work on the probody virus. We have tested it in our prisons, and found it to be most satisfactory. Death occurs through destruction of the blood's vital components within, at most, three days - most often through suffocation, as circulation of oxygen within the blood is rendered impossible.

Victims can be cured by being exposed to an actual (preferably non-lethal) virus, which the antibodies recognise as a priority target, thus ceasing their attack upon normal components of the victim's blood. We are still working on that.

We are proud to donate our knowledge to all signatory nations. We have also increased production of nuclear weapons, as promised, and will if necessary use them in a defensive alliance.

Terrifying, not only will this bacteria strain of Escheria Coli destroy robotic armies and tanks, it will also target haemoglobin in red blood cells which are responsible each for attracting 4 O2 molecules which allow for respiration in the body. The bacterium will use the iron which is the prosthetic group in haemoglobin thus destroying the globular protein. The body will suffocate.

Beautiful. Far more effective than my modest probody virus, I have to admit...

Yes... very nice indeed. We will make good use of this information.

"Send our congratulations to the Anthill," the Dictator ordered, waving one arm at a minor official who hastily scurried out of her sight. She smiled, and leaned back behind her large desk. All very satisfying.

The only thing that bothered her was that the initial outcry had died down.

People will play indignant, and then let you do just what you please, she thought, amused. In most cases, that was a good thing. But in this particular instance, she had all these new toys she wanted to try out, not to mention those developed by like-minded nations.

What would be nice, she thought, would be some small nation giving us a pretext for war.

But would anyone ever be foolish enough to attack the People's Anthill? She sighed. Life was full of frustrations.
