We are now part of the club of Space faring nations.
We intend to launch satellites, build space stations and colonies on the Moon and on Mars.
We are even drawing up plans to mine the asteroid belt.
Our first astronaught spent exactly 48 hours in space before returning to earth where he landed in the Indian Ocean and was recovered.

Congratulations! *Hands Lagash the Official Space Faring Nation Membership Card - entitles members to 10% off admission to space stations* :lol:

These areas are already claimed by near-future countries.

Did he have anything to say?

There is plenty of room on earth's moon. There are only two nations there.

Ah, but we must all beware of WestMoon and his UBER-DEATH HYPER IRRADIATION DEATH, DEATH, DEATHY nuclear arsenal. If you are not careful he may very well nuke the moon out from under you and then Earth would get pulverized as well. But someone up there that can keep him under control will be nice. And it will save the nations that have to threaten with retaliation when he gets an itchy finger on "the button" from having to mount such large anti-missile attacks and from having to keep a fleet in orbit over his head for several months.

what are you talking about?

You've never heard of WestMoon? Possibly the worse space RPist of all time? Basically he has tried to nuke all of Earth twice, most of Mars once, and portions of the Moon itself on several occassions. His policies makes Einsenhower's retaliation policies look outright subtle. I honestly think that he has more nuclear weapons than he does people. And he thinks the Moon's far side is his own personal little dominion. All I am saying is that if you move to the Moon you will want a high-quality IGNORE shield that way you won't have to worry about the deathless hordes of WestMoon n00ks raining down on you.

Why would any one do that?
And if he the worst rper, how come he ain't on that list?

OOC: He never had a reason, he just did it because he thought everyone else would run in fear and terror because of the sheer size of his supposed "nuclear arsenal." In other words he godmoded like a mad-man and then always proved he could never justify or carry out his threats.

Arrogance, stupidity, ignorance, lack of empathy, take your pick.

OOC: I guess because we all got so used to just ignoring his hot air expulsion that no one submitted him to the list. However, I think it is best if I silence myself now, I believe that I have hijacked this thread quite enough, and I apologize for it. And might I add that those are excellent reasons, Central Facehuggeria.

The earth threatened my country with obliviation. I was only defending myself.
You are still angry that I doubled the size of the moon to make room for my region and anyone else that wishes to establish a colony or nation on the moon. Something you and the other moon nations are still angry about cause you do not want anyone else up here.
And on ten different occasions, mind you, you yourself threatened to attack me if I didn't give up the new region.
Of course, we all know that WM will never be intimidated.
If they won't let you on the moon, you are always welcome to Earth's Moon. This region of the moon is under West Moon soverignty and heavily protected. No one will bother you there.
Fact is, ever since creation of West Moon, Valinon has threatened us with total obliteration.
But the laws of nature say that West Moon and the region Earth's moon both have the right to exist on the moon.

Credonia sells spacecraft(mainly for sending payloads into space). Our newest ocket, the Delta IV Medium+ (4.2) can send medium sized payloads to other planets, provided they have the thrust and fuel capabilities to reach them via a hohmann transfer orbit. If you would like to buy some, or havw the Credonian Space Agency (CSA) launch some of your payloads, check out our storefront. http://www.geocities.com/credonia/

OOC: You forget one thing, grasshopper, I have no possessions on Luna what-so-ever. And frankly I want you to produce some proof of when I ever threatened war for your region. Valinon has never shown the slightest interest in the Moon, we have instead worked to establish territory on Earth and Mars, but never the Moon. And secondly I never even bothered you until you started trying to launch more nukes than you could ever afford at the age you were. Finally do you honestly think that the whole global community on Earth was threatening you? EOE and myself merely got rather annoyed with you because you were basically threatening to carpet bomb the entire frikkin planet. We were saving you from death by your own stupidty. After all as I recall, a few nations were quite willing to turn WestMoon into an nice occupied protectorate for the next 500 years or so, I think you dodged that bullet because you went under a rock somewhere.

NO that is not the facts. The facts is that you and EOE and other earth nations were threatening West Moon with total annihilation cause you refuse to recognize my right to exist as a nation.

I would further note that if it weren't for your threats and the threats of certain other nations opposed to West Moon's right to exist, West Moon would have no need for its nuclear arsenal.

West Moon has never had more than 20 nukes.

OOC: I seem to remember a claim you made were you said you had a stockpile arsenal of about 80+. Do I need to go digging through the threads on the ones I have posted on and find it?

My goal was 80. Or was it 50?
