The New Aryan State Broadcasting Company is proud to announce the launch of it's new orbital sattelite! This multi-million Mark investment will allow the viewing of NASBC broadcasts anywhere in the world! Also - funnily and entirely accidentally - it will enable NAS viewers to view broadcasts from near anywhere else! (Except from the Generic Empire. They show nothing worth watching)

Will this satellite permit your viewers to view transmissions from other nations that are supposed to be paid for without such payment being forthcoming? If so, we strongly recomend that your organisation pay compensation to those organisations whose products are being stolen by way of your satellite.

A single satellite would not permit global coverage. You'd probably need at least three.
Also, you chose a pretty dodgy cover for your satellite. TV and communications satellites are generally in a geosynchronus orbit, whereas spy satellites are in a much lower orbit. You'd be better off calling it a weather satellite.

OOC:
I myself resently launched a "weather" satalite, and a "transmission" sattilite.

The weather is more of a spy satalite to cover my neighbooring nations (they all suck, those damn backstabbers)

The transmission satalitte is "said" to resive international messages, but really moniters moon activity and space operations.

Let that be a good suggestion from an unknown person

IC:
If these "transmissions" from ym nation, which are required pay by other citizens, we wish for compesation from these satilites.

Fizz had played this game for years. He was the spy, Gaffer was the prey.

Sometimes it was different. He remembered times when he had been the prey, and Gaffer had been something altogether.

Draining the contents, he skoffed his meat pie and took a sip of powerade.

The bullet rattled between the metal, sending shards flying. He had played this old game before.

"GAAAAAFFFFFEEERRRRRRRR!!!" :shock:
