I have two soldiers...and one is a magician, and the other a pedophile. If the magician doesn't kill you with magic, then your probably under 15 years old, which is when I bust out the pedophile.

Don't screw with my nation your you'll get pee'd on.

More information, including ship names, available here (http://forums2.jolt.co.uk/showthread.php?p=5985404#post5985404).

Those Other Services About Which No One Cares:

The Royal Iansislean Army Corps

Total Effectives: circa 225,000 men, organized by regiment (2,250 men) and deployed on the Shield, in Dianatran, on Sentry Island, in Gallaga, and throughout the colonies.
Primary formation: the Army of the Daldon, 45,000 men and light horse, 85 guns.

The Gallagan Army

Total Effectives: circa 250,000 sepoys led by white officers. Deployed throughout Gallaga and at Fort Manly.

Both army units use mainly the Galveston and Sons M74C rifle, a bolt-action capable of 15 aimed shots/minute and with a 12 round magazine. There is a very low level of mechanization in both services, as most armored units rely on the Shell-Westerton armored car or imported Walmingtonian tanks.

The Royal Iansislean Flying Corps

Fighter Command: 2,758 aerocraft. Mostly MPAF-6J Supercolts, though MPAF-9 Norikers are being phased in as a replacement. MPAF-8 Spirits are also used for long-range escort.

Coastal Command: 142 aerocraft. Mostly MPAF-8 Spirits. Used mainly for reconnoissance

Bomber Command: 1,457 aerocraft. Mostly BAF-4 Beetles and BAF-5 Daedali.

Naval Command: 757 aerocraft. Mostly MPAF-5N SeaSteeds, BAF-3 Screamers, and MPAF-4T Seahorses. Used on fleet MAFDs.

Uhm, this is in no way meant as a submission to the magazine, just a Walmingtonian lament on the apparent failure of what once was set to be their traditionally puny navy's first real golden age.

[looks from Iansislian to Walmingtonian fleet data]

Ah, nuts, there's that maritime gap, again :)

In capital ships we're even by today's numbers, but WoS has none further laid-down, and has a presently higher ratio of battlecruisers to battleships than does its North Pacific friend. For a second I thought we were close on carriers, too. Then I realised that no, we're not, heh. We've seven in total, with works laid or materials gathered towards a planned total of, "five 1st Class and six Escort Class" carriers.
42 heading for 54 cruisers vs. 19 headed for 31. In WoS the light/heavy split is about even.
Lets not dwel for too long on how WoS has persistantly failed to deliver the destroyers it has often clearly needed and is currently outnumbered over ten to one in that respect next to the Ians. 14 serving (despite there being at least three half way competent classes represented) with an unprecidented plan to bring the total to 36.
223 small vessels... ah, well, we've got 16 corvettes with plans for 8 more!
We've 22 submarines on strength, too, officially. Look, you can see them at Southend! Yeah, they're supposed to be that reddish colour. You try telling a crew that they can still take one under and have it come back up again, though.

WoS probably has to admit that, with a smaller population base, it should not expect to match the seagoing Iansislians, but with the re-introduction of income tax, the island nature of the country, the far-flung and increasingly troubled nation of the empire, and the fact of threats existing on three sides, one might wonder where all the money goes!

Beside's Chaspot Inc's baffling Cape-Matabele tramline contract from the government, multiple failed attempts with rocketry and an increasingly unpopular jet programme, Sir Henry's liver, lungs, garage and waist, the support of a standing army the size of the Gallagan Army and the RIAC combined from a population X-fold smaller, and a civil service liable to over shadow all three? Who knows!

Since the Walmington Light Fighting Tank MkII Wychwood Gnome* there's not even been any new activity on the tank-front. The Gallagans may as well go back to war elephants or... or... have the Ians make their own, at this rate!

Am I to guess, then, that the Iansislean armed services are in some (inexplicable) way not worthy for admittance into this magazine? Hmph. I may just have to take my toys and play elsewhere!

Since the Walmington Light Fighting Tank MkII Wychwood Gnome* there's not even been any new activity on the tank-front. The Gallagans may as well go back to war elephants or... or... have the Ians make their own, at this rate!

Oh, God in heaven no! We'd probably end up making something like that twenty year old Italian effort Agrigento sold us ...um, x years ago, where x = a lot. War elephants, though...that idea bears much more thinking-on than does the possibility of a native Shieldian tank!

And, by the way, I wouldn't have the 'Maritime gap' any other way! :P Just don't come after us with armor!
