NNN - Nod News Network

Cairo - Since the 19th of May, 2042, the Brotherhood of Nod now officially counts three billion citizens. After learning of the event, our Holy Messiah, Kane, announced that "this is a great day for the Brotherhood and all peoples living within it's borders. May our great nation prosper and our enemies fear our numbers". Later he announced this day to be declared a national holiday. At the announcement of the Brotherhood now being three billion large, most stocks on the Cairo stock market rose significantly, from the Brotherhood Trout Fishing Co. (NODBTF, up 0,2%) to the Joint Brotherhood Automobile Trust (NODCAR, up 6,4%). The Brotherhood Joint Tiberium Mining Operations (NODTIB) remained relatively stable with a rise of 2% flat.

OOC: C&C, ahh memories. I used to play that game very often. *Puts on Act on Instinct*. (In case you're wondering, I still listen to the soundtrack, despite not playing the games anymore.)

OOC: So do I. *Puts on TD - Looks Like Trouble* 8)

*puts on Industrial while building up his nation*

Damn... Brotherhood is still bigger.

Gefeliciteerd!

The Great Ineffable Bob sends Kane a large crate containing 3 billion small yellow diamonds to be distributed one each to every Nod citizen, all manufactured in the Ineffable Advanced Armour Manufacturing plant specially for the occasion.
He also attaches a small note saying he doesn't really care if Kane keeps them all.

The Imperium would be horribly remiss if we were to miss out on congratulating Nod on this matter. It's always thrilling to see close allies grow stronger and more prosperous.

In commemoration of this glorious day, we've been kicking around the idea of opening an Imperial Officer's Academy to Brotherhood applicants. If that's something that would interest Kane, I'm certain it could be arranged.

Yours in good faith,

Dontgonearthere congratulates The Brotherhood of Nod and sends a gift-basket of assorted fruit and a %20 off coupon for any GLACORP store.

Some random office nestled deep within the bureaucratic machine.

Well look at that, another nation has hit 3 billion.

Really, who?

Oh, just this "Brotherhood of Nod".

That's a nation? Sounds more like a cult to me.

Yeah, a really big cult. Anyways, its probably our department's job to send something.

Yeah, whatever, no one ever tells us what we're supposed to do. I'll get on it.....

*sounds of solitaire being played on the computer*

The memo never got sent, but the feeling was there.....sorta :wink:

Bedankt :)

I thought of that last sentence before I even read it :wink:

The Brotherhood thanks you; I will glue them to the walls of my Temple.

The Brotherhood is certainly interested in your offer. How about an exchange of officers? We would be proud to train Melkorian officers in our training camps. The Brotherhood excels at what we call "strategic removal of key enemy combatants" and "morale-lowering strikes within urban areas".

The Brotherhood thanks you and laughs at the caricature of your Vice Foreign Minister - Minister of International Relations - Lord of Wuchang.

We thank you for your generous gift. Does GLACORP sell heavy military hardware?


The Brotherhoods Sens'oMatic also sensed a feeling of slight support from the direction of Sketch. Brotherhood bureaucrats tried to deliver a thanking note back, but failed to do so because the self-appointed leader of the project died in a mysterious accident one hour after the Black Hand found incriminating evidence against him in his house. The project was thereafter forgotten.

GLACORP sells all sorts of military hardware. The store is mostly futuretech, but all the items (except mecha, spaceships, and giant-lasers) in it can be readily modified to suit a more 'modern' timeline. All of our infantry weapons are modernish, and our WMD programs are almost entirely modern.

Were first under the Futuretech stores :)

OOC: Congratulations, perhaps you'd like this cyanide laced fruit basket. It's delightful... :P

IC:

"Yeesh, Nod has 3 billion citizens..."
"Hmm, I bet they are more crowded than we are..."
"Could you move your foot please, it's jabbing into my stomach..."

OOC: So do I. *Puts on TD - Looks Like Trouble* 8)

OOC: I don't know if this is crazy or not, but I often put up playlists for different RPs (like soundtracks). Currently I'm involved in desert warfare, so I listen to the C&C: Generals music while I'm at it.

My current RP playlist (for the war against Daylam):

- USA 01 (Generals)
- USA 03 (Generals)
- Industrial (Tiberian Dawn)
- USA 04 (Generals)
- USA 08 (Generals)
- USA 10 (Generals: Zero Hour)
- China 04 (Generals)
- The Imperial March (Star Wars)
- March to Doom (Tiberian Dawn)
- Creeping Upon (C&C: Covert Ops)
- Reviewing March (an old Chinese Army marching tune)

OOC: It's not that crazy :P

I put the soundtrack from TD and RA in my playlist from UT2K4 :)

But I never bothered to even download Generals, it's not C&C to me.

Liverpool England and its 2.89bn citizens would like to extend congratulations to the Brotherhood on reaching this remarkable ... milestone. Enclosed you will find 1000 specially-minted coins to celebrate this milestone, courtesy the Liverpool England Government Mint.

Foreign Affairs Minister

[OOC EDIT - edited for glaring spelling error]

The Brotherhod thanks Liverpool England and hopes to welcome them in the three-billion club soon.

The Republic of Lorkhan congratulates you on this great day. Long have I admired the Brotherhood and it's peoples, and this epic day is only a small reason why. Yesterday, all citizens who were registered members of the Brotherhood within our borders were given one full day off, and any members of our military were given a three day pardon from services so that they may celebrate this occasion with their family members.

UT2K4? Generals is like C&C but more intuned with real life. Since Westwood's all washed up now, they should consider making Tiberian Dawn into a major film. Now that would kick ass!!!
