[edit] Document has been shredded

The offer is withdrawn. The weapon is now complete.

ooc: so, do you think i'm bluffing or are you just ignoring me because you think i'm god modding? i can prove that i'm not god modding

We can't make any judgement, no stats, no pictures, no nothing.

so true my ally.

Alright, information has just been declassified. The total cost of the project floats somewhere around the $3 billion mark.

This is wardenclyffe tower. It was a project that the great inventor, Nikola Tesla could not operate, due to a lack of funds. The empire of Japanese Antarctica has ressurected the concept. The original tower still stands at Long Island, New York.

A brief historical overview of the original experiment (http://www.frank.germano.com/tunguska.htm)

As of now, the tower is not ready to fire, as the necessary satellites are not in space. But we believe we can get the tower operational in a short amount of time.

Y'know, it'd be a little smarter to launch satellites up with Linear technology that will pretty much fire anything that's got metal in it at nearly mach 12...

It's going along with my 2.7Trillion dollar base. ^^

Unfortunately, Japanese Antarctica does not have plans to any Linear Technology equipped satellites or bases. We did have Tesla's plans for Wardenclyffe which were bought from the FBI years after Tesla's death. So logically, we built the base that we had plans for. In any case, the result should be nearly as if not just as devastating as your base.

*Grins*

Linear technology is simply magnets. A kilowatt of energy will pump a piece of metal the size of a small asteroid at mach 12 away from earth's gravitational pull. It would probably double of triple on the way down. You're talking a shockwave 3-17 times bigger than the object itself. I'm actually even guessing that the shockwave from a small asteroid being fired at earth would distort electricity.

*Shrugs*

My Ingredients: 300 billion wraps of copper coil, Power Plant, large aluminum tube, paperclip = Byebye Whitehouse!

Long Island, NY? Really? Man there's enough junk, I mean people, no wait I mean junk on that island. :)

LOL :: left Long Island finally ::

Yes, I understand the concepts of a railgun. However, we already had plans to build Wardenclyffe. As we are on the brink of war, we needed a swift plan. Rather than pour more money into R&D, construction and operation, we simply used existing plans and our ingenuity to build Wardenclyffe.

Personally, i would like to use tungsten rather than a paperclip. But, hey, it saves you money on the military budget :D

Having used several of Tesla's designs ourself, we applaud you on your choice to use his technology. But please recall that Tesla dissassembled the particle beam when he had learned what it did. Tesla realized the awesome destructive power his system held, and he decided to destroy it, because he also realized the world wasn't ready. We urge you to respect Tesla's decision and disarm yourself, as weapons of this power can only lead to catastrophe.

We will be sure only to use it as a last resort

ooc: Meaning, only against stupid god modding people. You know, those people who claim they can stop every single nuke from hitting their country.

Japanese Antarctica is planning on allowing representatives from select nations to view the first test of the Wardenclyffe Cannon. Don't expect it to happen immediately though, technicians are overlooking the design to make sure nothing goes wrong while foreign nationals are present. Also, superficial cosmetic modifications are being made. Stay tuned to this thread and/or International incidents.

The redesigning is complete. Here is what the base looks like:

Closed Position

Open Position

As you can see, the tower is lowered when not in use. An observation tower is built next to the Wardenclyffe tower. A nuclear powerplant provides electricity for the entire compound. Stay tuned for invitations.

The following countries are invited to watch the test firing of the Wardenclyffe tower:

Dracun Imperium
Nikolaos the Great
Halberdanger
Calien
Bleland
IDF

OOC: If you think i'm forgetting you post and i'll see if you can be invited.

The firing of the tower will happen very very soon. You may send someone to stay in our country and view the firing when it happens. The shot will be aimed at the Soviet Expanse, Vladimir Stremouchov's country. It will be aimed at the barren tundra, hundreds of miles away from any habitat.

Long Island, NY? Really? Man there's enough junk, I mean people, no wait I mean junk on that island. :)

OCC: :( Atleast I'm close to the beach... Not that dirty anyway.

The tower was tested. It hit the designated target. Here is a picture of the wooded region hit by the tower's energy

http://www.morearty.com/yellowstone/c-15-forest-fire.jpg

The blast was measured at 10 Megatons. However, we believe that the tower can deliver up to 30 Megatons of energy

Are these things for sale?

Swiftly the men jumped from the black transport helicopter, ding from thier boots clashing against the metal ground echoed throughout the surroundings.

The men ran softly as the chopper took off, the sky was dark and the base was dankly lit. The men aproached a large cement wall. With grapple hooks in hand the Crimsdale SF flung themselves over the wall.

on the otehrside they could see that the base was still not complete as thier was little keeping the men out.

as they huddled against a nearby crate they began to plan,
" Alright Bravo go to the power station and plant the C4, Alpha we'll enter the tower and update our comlink with the info, We'll have 5 minutes to get into the air and leave, then it'll blow the reacter apart causing a mini meltdown explosion."

The men rushed to perform thier task and had to eliminate less than 7 men in the process.

Oh come on Crimsdale, you’re telling us that you located the location of wardenclyffe as well as Japanese Antarctica having no troops guarding the outside of the base? That’s crazy.

You guys always have some excuse, one more f up and I'm done, explain yourself then. It's a game idiot so learn to play it, I don't nescisaraly have to win, you could have easily thought of something that could have went wrong, maybe it's a dud, or maybe he has men trained to deal with these things.

And I thought I mentioned how it's dark, meaning it's night, meaning thier probally wasn't that many people out patrolling.

It was to make tensions boil. Not to have you come and ruin it like some nazi piece of crap.

Dude, would you really lower your defenses of a highly important military base during a time a war just because it’s nighttime? If anything it would be increased as strike forces would be likely to attack at night.

You can't have your men start out past enemy defenses, you have to RP them entering the country first and then passing though the outer security.

Ask Japanese Antarctica about what he thinks should have happened.

Well we are at war in another country, not in his cuntry, myself I have left my country unguarded and it's fine cause the war is not taking place their. anywayz just rp it, let me lose.

Ok fine, we leave it up to Japanese Antarctica to decide.
I was unaware that you leave your country unguarded.
Bleland had upped its security and I assumed that others did as well.

OOC:WTH are you doing? How did you magically find my base, and how come they didn't get hit by fire? I spent billions on this base, do you think i'd leave it unguarded? And how did your men magically appear in my country, without drawing AA fire? But fine, I'll play your little game, but I'm telling you now, it's going to end really fast. Plus, you're invading my turf, so

"What's that?"

"Radar has picked up an incoming helicopter."

"Is it ours?"

"It's unidentified."

"Get some fighter planes in the air, force it to land, we'll interrogate the occupants in a prison."

4 F-15J Fighters scrambled. They flew along side the helicopter, motioning to it, telling it that it should land.

OOC: Your move Crimsdale, land the helicopter, or you can have it shot down.

OOC:Someone really planned that thing!?
