We could always settle our differences over Battlefield 2. Russia and I could just hop in the fighter-bomber and pwn everyone.

More on topic, I need to study for a math competition, so my posts will be a tad scarce. Please pull back a little on the posting, I can't reply to ten at a time. And as for Cotland's deployment of subs, realize that I keep a huge ASW perimeter around the fleet.

Well, no, I don't think you could outfly me since I always play on the Chinese side in Wake, meaning I don't need to worry about the Jesus Jet. And whenever I get my hands on the J-10, no roundeye flying his JSF or F/A-18 is safe, because I'm smart enough to go in with guns only to kill someone.

I set up some WWII forums with the respective alliances having their own private boards on their, like the rest of the alliances. Now, with that in mind, when the alliances have names I'll properly name those forums. Tyrandis, if you join I'll make you mod of your group, Bjorn is mod of his group. In order for people to see your private forums, you have to add them to the group, which will be closed. Since you two will be group mods it is your discretion who will be in and who won't be.

Just like my regular account, Layarteb, cannot see any forums I am not registered to. The main original account can see everything, TheForsakenOutlaw, but I rarely use that except to use the admin panel. I have never gone into a forum I wasn't a part of and I extend that to this. If you do not wish to have a forum here that is up to you but I am providing the service.

Tyrandis
07-02-2006, 04:41
Just for reference, I'm RPing the war as though Tyrandis never existed in Australia, simply because it wouldn't make logical sense for me to emerge in Africa after the country fell into chaos. Not only that, the sizeable WMD arsenal I kept prior to my inactivity deletion would've gone into play against the invaders quite early as well, and EII would have become a desolate nuclear wasteland.

I still say I should've had the right to fight back against the invaders earlier, but oh well. Getting revenge later is better than never... :)

Actually, I don't own much of Louisiana- Soviet Bloc does. I essentially own Baton Rouge and New Orleans, and I'm not giving those up (well, New Orleans is becoming a Republic jointly-controlled by myself and North Germania, but we still have to finish that thread).

In light of recent events, the Roman Government is officially announcing an embargo on Tyrandis. Should Tyrandis cease its aggressive actions we will lift the embargo.

Well, you COULD threaten to completely remove them from Earth II altogether, but of course that is extreme and completely up to your discretion.
The way I see it, neither 'side' is as bad as the other makes it out to be, but both fail to realize that the IC thread is not the proper place to voice their complaints. Thus, both sides are wrong to a degree, and so should just shut up altogether.
And that's all I've got to say about that.

I think it'll be much less controversial to give it to new nations, just for the reason Lay stated, so that no one gains from this ugly mess.

Response from the Russian Federation

We will not respect your ban on passage of our vessels since a rather large fleet of ours is currently making its way back home and will have to use the strait, we mean you no harm but if you attempt to engage those vessels they will fire back.

Oh you'll see it, i promise you. And its not just me and Tyrandis on the side of justice either, although i won't tell who just yet. Anyways, i don't have a force in africa, only one Flotilla.

All we wish is peace, but as long as TOA has this monopoly on global politics there can be no peace between us. They do not respect any and all peace documents signed as was shown then Norway blew off our attempt to reach for peace by spying on us and not accepting our help generously offered to them. Same as it was shown then even after the Non-Aggression Pact was signed they did not demonstrate any wish to improve relations as we tried to do but instead kept their paranoic mindset towards our nation. TOA does not want peace or stability, until that changes we will fight to remove the tyranical hold of TOA from our sphere of influence and beyond. We urge all nations, that want freedom to do whats right and not what TOA thinks is right, to join us in our just fight.

We will not respect your ban on passage of our vessels since a rather large fleet of ours is currently making its way back home and will have to use the strait, we mean you no harm but if you attempt to engage those vessels they will fire back.

-Russian Ministry of Foreign Affairs


If you are planning a return through the strait, you will notice that it is in the process of being completely blockaded. Your vessels will not be fired upon unless they exhibit aggressive behavior, but they will not be allowed passage.

Like I'm going to pay 150 Trillion in one transaction, give yourselves more credit than that FFS.

I have a yearly trade surplus of 3.1 Trillion, thats where the money comes from, and its paid in installments, not a lump sum. Plus, the land gains will also net me more natural resources, labour and agriculture, which means much more revenue.

I didn't think I would also need to point out that a single payment of 150 Trillion (even if it was possible) into someone's economy would be detrimental to that economy, it would completely mess things up and the nation would probably come out worse than before it received any payment. Seriously guys, I really didn't think I'd need to explain this.

You see the money doesn't have to be paid snap quickly, because when I get the land Varsola gets economic rights, which means he makes truckloads of cash anyway, so he isn't losing anything. The installments would be between 1 and 2 Trillion per NS Fiscal Year. The trade surplus just sits there anyway, gotta use it somehow.

Confirmed with Varsola.

RomeW, I understand your concern about population realism, but this is just a game, the right of fiction has to be invoked when you start playing. If everything was realistic we couldn't talk OOC because it simply would not be possible in the real world and there are numerous other things we couldn't do. If we started to add tight constrictions of realism the game would be no fun at all. Also, most people want to keep their NS populations in E2 as they worked hard for those stats, trying to balance the issues and stuff. Too much realism can ruin something that is based on fiction, and fiction only.
Hawdawg
11-02-2006, 18:17
RomeW its a noble idea, but I am afraid it would never fly until the game itself is altered to reflect real numbers. Unfortunately we live in a realism vs. nonrealism world here, and if half of an earth maintained a real population while the other half maintained the numbers shown in the actual game itself, world dominantion would lean towards the higher population concentration. IF everyone that played this game would agree to real numbers it would be fantastic, but I don't ever see that happening unless a modification to the game forces it. Folks wouldn't be able to construct and maintain as large an army as they would like and since most folks seem to be militarily driven in this game I think participation would suffer if the developers forced this issue.

Like I said, not directly. I'm not paying it in a lump sum, so its a moot point.

I doubt anyone on NS has 150 Trillion sitting about doing nothing.

over-grown militias while education, being the best way to fight poverty has tripled in funding. Welfare and Social Security have
been stopped hafly due to the incorporation of so many records into one massive one. That has caused some people (with one Welfare plan on each island)
to recive many while others none. The other half is the corruption that resulted in it with many goverment positions changing hands
so fast the old records are being used as firepaper (which has only helped some people corrupt the system).

Countries:
Amsterdam I.
St-Paul I.
Nuaguss
Leygues I.
Mac Donald I.
Heard I.
Crozet Islands
Prince Edward I.
Marion I.
Bouvet I.
Gough I.
Tristan I.
Nigtingale I.
Inaccessible I.
Tristan Da Cunha I.
South Africa
Swaziland*
Lesotho*
South Sandwhich Islands

So is tha okay? Jus a slew of islands with no importance, and no I didn't include the Falkland Islands nor
Saint Helen. I was pretty exact wit my map so none of this islands are anyhwere close (they are all south)
of the Tropic of Capricorn. I included th two small countries* that are holes in South Africa because they are holes with rather no point.
This could be some nice RPing with the few British Soilders trying to hold out to the angry natives as they take control of the islands.

You're not getting Bouvet Island from me? MMm sounds like something i said once. Then of course the "attack" on Norwegian ships gave Norway the excuse to invade.

Well Panthean investigators of been researching Norway's claims for months. And from the early evidence we can say that Pantheans did not attack Norwegian ships near Bouvet Island

So we wonder what is Norway’s conclusion of the events that lead up to the Bouvet Island invasion?

All but a piece of Antartica that RL Norway has claimed, but I'm going to ignore that one. Bouvet, which is part of my evil sekrit plans to dominate the world (*evil laughter*), will be sufficient.

As for the Panthean investigation, we raise doubts as to the objectiveness of the Pantheans, as we have done our own investigation and found that the attack occured using a missile type only used by Pantheaa. Hence, the logical explanation is that Pantheaa attacked, giving the Norwegian ships authorization to conduct the operations conducted.

President: We will use our neutrality to our advantage, i want all ground vehicles and all naval ships to report to their respective bases to go through a series of modifications.
