They start in Female Tech Level, which is 20,000 years ahead of male tech.

It depends. You could choose to be future tech, modern tech or fantasy tech.

Just go with modern tech. Practically everyone uses it. Perhaps Vietnam era tech if you want cheaper stuff, as some modern techwould cost a lot.

So, probably F-4s or MiG-21, and M-60s or T-72s, if you want a considerable amount.

And ignore n00bs like Feminine Little Boys. They just cause trouble.

No matter what level you choose, someone eventually along the way is going to accuse you of godmodding, so just choose the tech level that you think you'd most enjoy playing. And there's nothing saying you can't pick a level, play it for a few weeks, decide you hate it, and switch to another level. The joys of freeform RP.

Ok would this be acceptible

my nation set up substantial beneifits (half the income tax rate among other things) and reqruited 13 scientists from some desolit (sp?) wartorn country (name withholding) that already half way done with a new tech???

As long as you RP it realistically, you can advance in tech, no problem. Don't just jump from swords and shields one day to Imperial Star Destroyers and lightsabers the next.

Yes and No. Yes, people have tried it, but they get ignored by everyone and so it didn't really happen.

1 Real Life day = 1 NS year. That's usually the method.....

Of course, thats only outside of RP. When playing out most wars and interactions between leaders, fluid time works better.

it is generally what time is needed, like rps could be a week RL for a month NS, but a sotrefront could use i day RL = 1 year NS.
