NationStates Jolt Archive

Okay, way back when I was a newb there was a long-lived phad of 'Elf-descrimination', people had some fun, and of course, after a while, there came a bunch of 'Stop the damn elf massacres!' type threads, similar to the 'Stop bashing!' threads in General.
So, I figure a good old Elf hunt is in order, to commemerate those who came before, and are still here.

So, we need some Elf nations, or nations with Elfen populations, and some hardcore-anti elf people, and some supporters for both sides.
Any interest?

Who should sign up for what:
Elfen Nations:
Duh, nations consisting of elves, or mostly of elves.

Pro-Elf Nations:
Nations with Elven minorities, or who just like Elves.

Hardline Anti-Elf Nations:
Nations that totaly hate Elves, they are the worst thing to happen to the Galaxy since humans.

Anti-Elf Supporters:
People who, for one reason or another, dont like Elves, or support the hardliners.


Elfen Nations:
Serafima (?)
Thelas
Giltheran

Pro-Elf Nations:
The Ctan
DNS
Hogsweat
Nanakaland
Neo-Tiburon
Allanea
---

Hardline Anti-Elfers:
Dontgonearthere
Mechant Guilds
Skeelzania
Iesus Christi

Anti-Elf Supporters:
Five Civilized Nations
Jennistraza

---

Neutralish:
Crazed Marines

Well, i'll be Anti-Elf... it's an excuse to commit mass elven genocide but you know it's fun :D

Well I have elves enough to to have risked making a thread when I was but a wee-little 300 million-pop nation, though none of the hard-core Elf-lovers saw it until I had managed to expel the population. So I'd be interested in a thread.

Cool :)
Just letting everbody know, this is futuretech, modern people join at your own risk.

So, two anti-elf people?

My nation could use some hot Elf women to serve as "Women of pleasure".

Liv Tyler / Arwen, anyone? ;)

Cool :)

Handy, I am primarily FT then :P

But yeah any volenteers to play Elves? or just be Elves generally?

Going to limit numbers on either side?

I'd ask you all if you want Serafima to join in. Her nation is elves apparently, and you'd be doing the rest of the world a favour.

-the Hardline-anti-elf side is closed until we get some elves to fight...
-No limits on either side, except that they must be roughly equal. If we get lots of nations we can just have more 'fronts'.

Go ahead and ask her, it would be nice ^_^

I'd ask you all if you want Serafima to join in. Her nation is elves apparently, and you'd be doing the rest of the world a favour.

I know Serafima slightly OOC, I'll ask her if I can find her. She's not that bad Sanctaphrax :P

Fine. You can sign me up as "Pro-elf" then...

As long as your promise not to own everybody else on your own :)

Serafima just does t3h s3>< rp.I am HARDLINE ANTIELF!

Whatever...if its your puppet you can jump in :P

Hmm... you placed me in the "anti-elf supporter" category.

I do not condone genocide or anything of that sort, so I will have to remain neutral towards the anti-elves factions. I'm a member of the CFA, which is aganist genocide and human / sentient rights violations.

However, my nation will take any Elvish women refugees, preferably young elves.

Alright then, everybody just post your affiliation 'cause I am now confused and lost.

I remember those days.... Put me in as pro-elf.

Done ^_^

Iesus Christi and the reich has and will help any nation destroying the elven and metahuman filth! (hehe hell we are still ethnic cleaning too...from syskeyia to North star we still are rounding up elven filth and giving 'em the quicklime treatment:D)

OOC: IT LIVES!!!!!!!

Pro Elf! There is an Elvish republic in Hogsweat! Ve vill oppose you!

To clarify my position:

I'll be neutral in this affair, BUT I might be convinced to join either the Pro-Elves or Anti-Elves.

Although my nation has a slight prejudice against elves, we maintain good relation with many of the elven nations on NS. But then again, we’ve been very pissed off since Aelosia destroyed one of our ships and we’ve had bad relations with Thelas… Hmm… Put us down as anti-elven.

We of the Nation of Jennistraza are a new nation of kender. As such, we are against war. However, we are against arrogance and tight rules. Thus, the elves must fall! We are completely against elves.

Fine. You can sign me up as "Pro-elf" then...

Aw crap, the one nation who stepped in during my thread on the elf-side. Good thing I've upgraded my shields somewhat from those "one-shot, one catastrophic reactor core breach" days.

hello my name is great ELVES united but the only reason the "Elves" is in it because we r honuring the great kingdom of Elves United.But we humans are preety elf-racist

I suggest we only let Experienced RPers in this RP.

I suggest we only let Experienced RPers in this RP.
Seconded.

Seconded.


OOC: IT LIVES!!!!!

Whoa, all the old timers are coming out of the woodwork!

ooc: only old role players? shame.. i will always be new until someone gives me a chance... *hint hint* I have role played before, but that was as characters, not as nations. Could i please observe and play a small role in this discussion?

Although my nation has a slight prejudice against elves, we maintain good relation with many of the elven nations on NS. But then again, we’ve been very pissed off since Aelosia destroyed one of our ships and we’ve had bad relations with Thelas… Hmm… Put us down as anti-elven.

*shakes fist* We still have to pay you back for meddling in our affairs!

Put me in as Elven (heck, I am an elf!) if for no other reason than the Thelasi have a score to settle.

Choices Choices... Well as we need people for the Elf Nation I volunteer my other Nation of Giltheran For the Job, as this is an OOC thread I can't be bothered logging out and in again just to make an OOC post so...

Sign Giltheran up

Okay, this is enough people to start.

Ill allow everybody whose posted in, though I wont be accepting any more below 500 million. Not allowing those who already posted in would be unfair.

So, Ill start a new thread. Maybe something about anti-elf legislation/riots in DGNT.
After that other nations can get started posting.

RULES:
2 people per side per war thread (political threads can have as many as you want)
Take turns posting, EX: Person 1, person 2, person 3, person 1, person 2 etc. etc. Dont post out of turn unless the person before you hasnt posted in at least one day.
No nukes, planet busters, and all weapons of mass destruction, unless its been pre-arranged by both sides, or in use as ship-to-ship weapons in space, just use your common sense.

(Just noticed, sorry Tor Yvresse, signed you up under your name...Ill change it soon)

*save from page two*

Iuthia would come under "Pro-Elven" purely because we have strong connections with some of the larger Elven nations and our largest metahuman minority are elves (at 3% of Iuthia's population).

This said, Iuthia isn't really the type to go to war over laws in another nation, at the most we may attempt to pressure anti-elf nations if we feel it would achieve anything, otherwise they just tend to keep an eye on it and make sure it's localised to your own nation.

I'll probably post a little and I'm only really declaring myself because I don't want to break any etiquette by barging into closed threads and making brief diplomatic statements... I'd rather at least have permission first and who knows, depending on how things turn out we may actually do something for a change.

Dontgothere, need some info on your nation, like where it is, is it landlocked etc, where I could park a flying sailing vessel etc you know the usual stuff:p

DGNT, do you mind if I join, taking in any willing refugees? I'll also have riots in my homeland and possible geurilla action in DGNT.

Just mind they aren't gay refugees though.

true. If they are gay, they'll be thrown out of the airlock. lol

Ill see if I can dig up the old DGNT map...
DGNT is mostly desert, the average noon temperature can go above 105 degrees (farenheit (sp?)), hurricane force winds.
Basicaly for about a thosand years the five big countries that used to control the continient fought and ruined the whole environment, and theres lots of wrecked machinery disentegrating out there.
The only way to move long distances is by the monorails, or month-long trips through the desert.
The north and south ends arent as bad, the north is mostly frozen waste, and the south is recovering, with occasional patches of rainforest. Mostly its just plains now though.
Rough description, more as needed and if I can locate my map...

Anybody who can take refugees etc. can...Ill make a new catagory.

Doh well I guess thats me for that as well... I have 14 more Spelljammers I guess. Plus when the Council meets the Entire Surface Navy. and Merchant Navy can be redirected. (Githras will get that much for certain. I'm hoping he won't need to ask for the rest)Refugees I mean add me to the accepting refugees group.

I suppose I could jump in on this, if the anti-elf nations are up for being put in a world of hurt. :D

I made this with you in mind ^_^
Just dont destroy us totaly, okay?

That depends when you surrender. ;)

This is not a November 2004 nation. It's a March 2003 one resurrected. I remember those days of elven discrimination. Nanakaland will be a pro-elf nation. Has an elven minority (of about 6% of the huge population) and used to have an elven vice president. Nanakaland won't do much fighting, though, because we're on the brink of a civil war and the civil war may break out before the end of this conflict.

[EDIT: And because 5CN is in an alliance with Nanakaland, expect technicalities to prevent almost any fighting.]

Neo-Tiburon will be a pro-elven nation, almost completely because of the commitment in the Constitution to fight against discrimination and stuff like that. And, yes, I know 5CN is an anti-elven nation, and, yes, I know I'm an APTO member (as The Forgotten Land).

And no, I'm not actually a Jul 2004 nation. I'm a Jan 2001 nation, Tiburon. The forum, for some reason, won't let me post as Tiburon.

I suppose I could jump in on this, if the anti-elf nations are up for being put in a world of hurt. :D

Told you she'd jump in :D *Eats a cookie in celebration*

I am now offically the truth personified :P

Btw, since most of you are teh oldies, I RP Shadow Future Tech from B5. My ground soldiers are a cross between the Bugs from Starship Troopers, Zerg from Starcraft and the Sandworms of Dune (I have about ten main types of what I call 'Dryal'). If you need lots more info give me a shout otherwise i'll release it during the RP...

Pro-Elf please...we just like elves.

OOC: Oh this looks interesting, most people who know me will have a rough idea of how I feel about elves: I hate them! I'd love to take part in this.

Put me down as hardcore-anti-elf if that's alright.

Thanks.

EDIT: This is MT Kriegorgrad.

Behold Asirnoth. He's getting more subtle. That almost looks like he's not threatening to do far worse things to DGNT than they can possibly do to the elves should they try anything. Almost.

I offer myself too.

The United States of Allanea wishes to join as a pro-elf nation.

Hhe im pro elf :P just a note. ..

Okay, we just need about 500 hardline anti-elf nations to balance out Menelmacar and Ctan, and we can start the actual war.

Anyway, please note that King Robert is the product of 1,357 years of royal inbreeding, so he can be quite clever, but most of the time he is a loudmouthed idiot. Most of the actual descisions are left up to somebody else.
Meh, maybe this is a good time to bring good 'ole 47 back. I kinda miss him.

How come you forgot to add me? Was my want ignored?

Okay, we just need about 500 hardline anti-elf nations to balance out Menelmacar and Ctan, and we can start the actual war.



I have a long tradition of reducing the power of my wank as is appropriate for the story. As the story isn't "DGNT dies horribly" you're not likely to be so badly mauled. :p

In the long tradition of II force declarations, Asirnoth is likely coming with between sixty one and ninety ships of assorted sizes and designations.

Incidentally, DGNT: How many elves do you have wanting to leave? Thousands, millions?

Don't worry DGNT... I, a former original GDA member, will back you up!

But not really...

If you need any extra muscle (either side) my nation is a mercenary one in FT. Im sure ther ewould be plenty of human or elven slaves (depending on the winner) that could serve as plentiful payment

OOC: I can commit quite a lot of ships to this if needs be to balance it out... but I am also about to help Sith in a huge war so don't blame me if I take a while to reply sometimes... doesn't help i'll be in Japan for five days soon so... botheration. :D

OOC: A most interesting thread.

OOC Since I am eventually going to unite with an elven nation, I feel I need to help them. Now, as soon as THe Ctan gives me my destroyer stats I can have my fleet stats up.

You can add DB into the vaguely anti-elf category. DB has something akin to a space defence network but it's still too backward to really go in guns blazing.

Would it be ok with you if my people had Naquadria mines and thus a Naquadria bomb? Don't worry, we have no means of deliverance! it would be a last defence against invasion. taking down as many of the invading armies with us basicly...

But thats an imaginary chemical...

DGNT, why don't you dring Mr. 47 back leading an elven-supported coup. It's not the actual Mr. 47, but a clone with a brain-chip (like in Brute force) that makes him have the same mind and soul of the original.

Would it be ok with you if my people had Naquadria mines and thus a Naquadria bomb? Don't worry, we have no means of deliverance! it would be a last defence against invasion. taking down as many of the invading armies with us basicly...
Well, I have Naquadah and Naquadria bombs, so I couldn't say no. We kind of "invented" it to our knowlege.

However, you're less than 1 month old, so no nOOks for you. [/sarcasm]

Elves are imaginary too. :rolleyes:

Well my nation is very low tech. They are fairly medeival, no robotics, no computers, stone buildings still, But they have excellent medical sciences and a large supply of Naquidria and Naquida. Kender are very strong and agile and intelligent. Unfortunately, they are are very distractable and hard to rally against any cause. So the military remains practically empty,chaotic and useless.

And of coruse, no nukes :)

However, you're less than 1 month old, so no nOOks for you. [/sarcasm]

Next thing you know you will be saying that they can't be space tech unless they have a population of at least 100 Million... nevermind that nationstates is a freeform roleplay and people can claim what they like providing they are reasonable...

I think it's a good rule in hindsight. It keeps n00bs like the old Hataria from saying, "I D3K|Aare \/\/aR on joo wif mai S00PUR UBeRHAXOrn00kz0rz!!!!!shift+11111"

[QUOTE=Jennistraza]Elves are imaginary too. :rolleyes:
[QUOTE]

Yeah but flip around with Genetics a bit and you could make an elf or something very similar at least. It also doesn't help that I have (without letting on exactly what I do) a very strong chemistry background. I'm not going to kick up a fuss if you ICly use the stuff, I just don't like it... from a Chemist's perspective. I tend to think "why use an imaginary chemical when there are real things than are tonnes more destructive?"

I think it's a good rule in hindsight.

Only it's not a rule... it's a guide line some players cite despite the fact that someone with a population of four billion could be just as badder roleplayer as someone who has just started the game.

If you don't like people like Hataria you do the smart thing and ignore him. Making silly rules (which aren't rules because it would go against the fact that Nationstates is described as freeform) to combat the problem isn't really too effective... it's better to help/ignore the players who can't RP properly and let the ones who can deal with what their nation can/can't have through reasonable explainations of their concept.

Naquadah's not a chemical, it's an element similar to Uranium. Naquadria is a by-product similar to Plutonium (the element number is around 250). Having such could be considered nuclear weaponry.

OOC: i am also very fond of chemistry. Sure there are more dangerous chemicals. I can make dangerous chemicals with my modeling materials! But Naquida and Naquadria are more logical to use from my medieval perspective. It can be harvested in base form and used quite easily without proper scientific knowledge. And I use this to do things I can't do in life. In real life, i'll never use Naquadria (who wants to guess why not?) but, it may be possible for me to gain explosives, hydrogen bombs, etc.

Meh, both Elves and Naquadria are fictional... so to be honest it's down to invidual roleplayers to make up their mind as to whether they ignore it or not. This thread being about Elves, you would expect anyone to be posting in this thread to accept them... this doesn't mean they have to accept Star Gates made up super nuclear material of doom.

Thank you.

"Naquadria" only 'makes sense' when you accept what they say about it on Stargate. What I mean by that is it doesn't have an Atomic Mass or a Molecular Formula.

OOC: science ruins everything good :( Well obviously if you do not accept Naquadria you can ignore every mention of it involving you.

OOC: science ruins everything good :( Well obviously if you do not accept Naquadria you can ignore every mention of it involving you.

You don't have to follow science perfectly, and I know alot of nations which will accept it... however there are a few which won't. I think that the guy running this thread is in between Modern Technology and Future Technology, so he will probably accept it... meanwhile just because one player ignore it doesn't mean you can't use it (you just can't use it in relation to their nation, like bombing them with it).

Ulimately such substances come down to what people work out between one another in a OOC manner.

Okay The Spelljammer itself is Ceremic/Crystal, if that has any effect on being detected, as for the people, well obviously they arn't going to have much presence on any detection equipment, it's seven man sized objects after all... However I am willing to accept the possibillity of them being detected should it be wanted. Assume my post was 'This i what they plan' if all goes well.

OOC: science ruins everything good :( Well obviously if you do not accept Naquadria you can ignore every mention of it involving you.


Actually if you read my post you'll see I said I'd accept it. I just don't like it, my original comment was more a sarcastic 'throwing my hands up' than anything else. I'm not trying to start a flame war or anything either, if you think I'm being offensive, I'm not trying to be.

Giltheran, would it be possible for a group of my people to greet you and request your help in liberating my nation? Of course eventually we will betray you to the huamns... but before that we'll have a jolly old party!

If that last bit is still a bit unclear, I mean I'm just voicing my opinion on this thread. It won't impact on the RP in any manner whatsoever.

As a random idea to throw to the wolves...
I am considering (as CM suggested) a coup in DGNT, resulting in lots of fun infighting. Possible medium-level use of WMDs will be allowed, just for fun and because there isnt much environment to ruin.
The coup will most likely be Elven supporters against Anti-Elf people, with additional groups (There are a good few Islamic hardliners in Al-Khali) popping up to harrass people.
Anybody else like it? Big war in the desert, lots of room to manuver, use of gas, germs and nuclear weapons less than 1 megaton on minor cities :P

Well that beats my idea of getting Giltheran drunk and selling him off to human's for drug money...

I'll agree to it! But my nation may be against everyone. it has been very undiplomatic of late...

That'd be right up our alley. Another State in the Federation falling into turmoil means there's an opportunity to get a pro-Dyelli Beybi Government set up.

Coup turmoil, perfect just the type of thing Seven Bladesingers would love to get mixed up in:)

Jezz hay if you meet them speak to them, I should warn people not to underestimate the Bladesingers they may have just qualified, but they have been being taught since about erm Day five real time of my nation being set up I think...

They are good, ((Bladesinger after all is an amalgamation of Two completly different professions both of which they had to be Elites in (Soldier and Mage.) BEFORE they where even considered for Bladesinging. Since then they have been taught in the school, In short it's taken about hell say erm Two Decades to train them.... (Flexi time plus Giltheran was OOCly quiet for a time, so I don't want to over use that silent time)

((Bladesinger disclaimer added because well I realised I have constantly been pointing out they are newly qualified and so people may have mistaken that for incompetance they are inexperianced but well taught, what remains now is putting theory into practice. Fortunatly the Teacher had had Practical experiance so it's not so bad))

OOC May I join? Please? I feel the need to help the poor elves, so let me join please.

Naquadriah eh? *Makes notes for his goa'uld nation.*

OOC Hey Ctan, I belive you owe me a ship deisgn. Please get that done, ASAP

I doubt you would succede in getting a permenant pro-forign govornment set up...DGNT has WAY too many competing political parties and differnt cultures, most of which always feel estranged and so forth.

If the main (surface) conflict is going to be in DGNT, Ill give a detailed desc for you all:
Geography:
DGNT is a VERY large desert island (About the size of Russia), most of which is uninhabited. There are two main island chains, the Stragetic Isles in the south are recovring and semi-tropical now. The other (unnamed) islands in the north are frozen wastelands used as military proving grounds.
Most of the mainland is desert, with a strip of semi-rainforest in the south and a lot of tundra in the north.
The capitol is G'oaway, situated in the southeast of the country on one of three rivers left.

Environment:
Desert, lots of it.
This is mostly 'Sahara' style, endless dunes and heat, with a very rare oiasis around. The daily tempreture usualy exceedes 100 degrees, along with high-winds and lots of sand. Most forms of sensor dont function well due to a high metal content of the sand, caused by the Big War and all the dead people in tanks/armour/whatever.

Cities:
All DGNT cities are domed for the above reasons, obviouly you dont want your city to be sandblasted daily. Most of these are equipped with decent defensive systems, good anti-orbital shields and weapon batteries and so forth.
The big dissadvantage is that more than three quarters of the (Earth based) population is concetrated in the cities.
The capitol building is Dontgoneart'he castle, which is basicaly a super-fortress. The castle is five hundred years old, with a number of additions, including a huge underground bunker systems, super-reinforced outer shielding and a uber-high tech defensive systems, all the standard paranoid tyrant gear.
The only reliable way to get from city to city is via monorail, there is a very extensive system which connects most of the cities to each other. The trains are well defended, but the lines might be vulnerable, unless you plan on using them to move troops, it might work if you can set up your own power supply.

Military:
About 15 million combat troops, split up amoung two large branches (Space and Planetary).
There is a third group, the Militia, which is basicaly a wartime army consisting of %5 of a cities male population between 18-35, they are generaly lightly armed and not well trained, but they arent generaly called upon to do much other than act as placeholders for the main army or as defensive troops for their own cities.
The ground forces are composed of the Tank Corps, the Mech Corps the Mobile Infantry and the Infantry. The tank corps uses (Duh) tanks, the Mech Corps uses large mechs, the Mobile Infantry uses powered armour, and the infantry are the poor unfourtunates who get sent into battle with a helmet and a rifle. They generaly make up the militia, often times the militia groups will mix Mobile Infantry and Infantry.
The space corps is basicaly everything that functions in the air or in space, since most of the air force can function both inside and outside of a planets atmosphere.
See my store on the International Mall for details as to equipment and such.

Questions?

Should we post stats about our nations too?

I have an interesting invasion idea. You have Uranium mines that "go 4 miles deep and sometimes into other countries" well my nation digs for Naquida in large cavernous mines. Might it be possible that my miners dig into your mines by accident? Thus opening a long and cold path that will avoid the bulk of the hot desert between our 2 nations? I'm sure we'll callopse it eventually though...

OOC Hey Ctan, I belive you owe me a ship deisgn. Please get that done, ASAP

I'm sorry, I wasn't aware I was under any obligation to make it. To be honest, I can't bring myself to have necrontyr designing anything that has 'wraithbone' in it.

If you feel that anything military is going to be happening in your nation you should post your stats.

The mines arent quite as extensive as Robert thought, but its a good idea, you would need some sort of transport, since the mines movers were blown out by the EMP blast.

They'll ride ponies, bearing daggers and staffs through mines to attack a civilisation with lasers and shields. It's a good thing they're stronger and more skilled than humans. but they may get distracted and end up eating posoous mushrooms in the mines...

OOC Did I say it had to be made of wraith bone? Meh, it can be made of whatever, since the Empire have three necron tombs controled by our psykers ((We smashed the lord to a pulpe and installed thirty psykers a tomb.)) we would be able to use Necron designs effectivly. The whole point was so I did not have to make the stats myself. Now, CAN I JOIN???

Well if your still taking people (since we know im slow) i'd be interested in Anti-elf supporters.....Although if you need stats from me i'll attempt to write those up too.

((Okay if Giltheran activates it's Military well we have a large number of Regiments that really I won't bother at this time describing... (Does anyone really care about my knights?:) ) We also however have many Mages and Fighter-Mages, along with a Large Clerical contingment, A Ancient Silver-Wyrm who is offically a Private Citizen and 'Unlikely' to get involved, unless it involves the rescue from a Holocaust type situation.

Our Navy is split into two, a Surface Navy and a Spelljammer Navy, all made from a Ceremic/Crystal type substance immune to Fire. ((Infact it is designed so that it can be set fire to through Magical means without the fire spreading and risking the entire vessel....))

Spelljammers number as mentioned 15 one of which is a Large Dragon-Class vessel (SJ) (Dragon-Class is in fact a Surface navy design adapted for the Spelljammer class) These could be classed as carriers and Supra-Troop Transports. Our 'Airforce' consists of Pegasus, Griffon and Giant Eagles with Riders. (Some of whom are Mages, some Archers, some Knights)

The Surface Navy is split into Four Task Forces centered around a Dragon-Class (S) Each Task Force is roughly about 20 Vessels in size, and it should be noted much research has been done by the Giltheran Government into 'Anti-Metal-Ship' Weapons. ((A Combination of spells upon Bolts and Catapults have created weapons that first alter the make up of a small area of the vessel into a highly inpure form of simple Iron, then that Iron is rusted by the second spell, 'Rusting Grasp' the third Spell is a Large delayed Fireball timed to go off as the effects of the Rusting grasp have reached their height. That it least is the current standard method used, other forms of the Bolts exist.))

Advantages and disadvantages of these weapons stem from the same source, they are Bolt Throwers and Catapults, enchanted to increase the range somewhat they still have a much smaller range than found on Modern or future tech ships. On the other hand when all is said and done, it's a piece of wood flying towards your ship, most methods of tracking and intercepting simply are not designed to intercept pieces of wood or stone, they usally look for a Heat signature or a Radar presence, imagine something designed to hit a rocket trying to track a piece of wood....

Anyway ground forces will be posted as and when needed.

Well my military pales in comparison with yours...

Land description: Jennistraza is a small but growing region. it is located in a very large and dense forest aporximately (sorry if this is unreasonbable...) 50 000 kilometres wide. It is slowly being hallowed out from the centre by kender to make room for their rapidly growing culture. There is one major city and a few small camps located in the forest. The large clearing is currently 12 km thick and is cleared of all trees, is grassy and has bushes here and there. The land is relatively unrocky due to the large usage of stone.

Buildings are made of stone or wood and the populace lives very independantly from government, forced to build their own houses and get their own food from neighbours. The roads between buildings are wide and are grassy dirt.

There are currently 3 Naquadria mines and 1 Naquida mine being used by the kender and they are run by the Plaguebearer family, so named for the lung disease which infected it's people before the discovery of Tritonin. The kender nation currently harvests approximately 25 pounds of naquadria and 4 pounds of Naquida each year. However, the scientific community has no use for it as of yet. However, tests are being done on Naquadria bombs which are proving successful. There are also 5 independant mines which harvest ores of iron, lead, zinc and many other metals. Diamonds are rare and treasured in Jennistraza as they are scarce and rarely reported in their soil.

Technologically, kender have hoopaks,iron daggers,iron short swords, Bronze swords, leather armour and on occasion chain mail. They have an extremely advanced medical system, however, and free of disease. Tritonin is also used to cure the populace of miners as no cure has yet been established for their lung disease. They have no electricity and depend upon oil and gas lamps. They have 10 pistols recovered from other nations and a single laser rifle. They have no vehicles of any kind and are dependant upon horses and cattle for transportation. For long range transportation they have a small family of 5 white dragons. However, these creatures are old and sterile and are unable to produce their glorious ice breath in large quantities any more and are only good for transporting kender. Anything heavier and they will not make it off the ground.

The military is in great disarray. The military consists of approximately 1 hundred thousand kender. however, 90 000 of these kender are in the militia and only bear arms if the town is attacked. The remaining 10 000 are hardly qualified and never receive training or orders. They have 2 small 10 man craft which carries them down the small river which winds around the forest.

Kender, as a people, are extremely strong, talented with daggers and short swords, and are agile. Unfortunately they hate monotony and war, so are never organised against the enemy. They are distractable and hard pressed to take a life. Thus, the kender will quickly gain the upper hand in a battle but in a prolonged siege, they will lose after a few days of stalemate.

Just post here that your signing up, Ive givin up on recording all you people O_O

What Im thinking of doing:
One war-thread per county in DGNT, that makes five war threads, plus however many politic threads.
Of course, I need other people to make some of the threads, I dont want to get a spam-deat :P
So...who wants to make invasion threads?
Also, if anybody wants to be involved, but doesnt want to risk their country, they can take over as one of the petty rulers in the area, EX: You like Islamic hardliner terrorists? Go for Al-Khali and so forth. Its all good :P

bring Mr. 47 back! That would kick, and we would suport him regaining his regieme...orbitally...lol

OOC: Well being as everyone is describing their military, so will I...

Dyelli Beybi will try to avoid open confrontation. But Tercionem ( read: Commandos) may end up taking part. They have access to plasma fired assault rifles but tend to use gas powered rifles as they're a lot quieter. If they're up against light vehicles or powered suits they also have something thats a cross between a magnum shotgun, a sniper rifle and a tank cannon. They wear powered body armour.
Regular Dyelli Beybian troops are armed with high calibre assault rifles and have fairly bog standard 21st century armour. Their tanks are more 22nd-23rd century quality and they have very advanced ground based AA. Some of the ships are fitted with some very impressive engine and EW arrays, but are mostly 21st century style.
Dyelli Beybi also has 200 star fighters and 6 enormous orbital rail guns for hitting incoming capitol vessels and roughly 50 gigantic space bombs. The fighters are extremely manouverable but have next to no armour and no shielding of any form. They carry a single swivel mounted laser in the belly of the hull and occasionally an anti-matter torpedo.

The only other thing worth mentioning is the Dyellians have a few tricks up their sleeves when dealing with magic users, most of which they don't actually understand. I'll explain them as they get bumped into so as not to give away too many secrets (that might be fun to get RPed out).

On a whole though the Dyelli Beybian Government will try to avoid war, and focus more on manipulating other people into doing it's dirty work for it.

OOC Did I say it had to be made of wraith bone? Meh, it can be made of whatever, since the Empire have three necron tombs controled by our psykers ((We smashed the lord to a pulpe and installed thirty psykers a tomb.)) we would be able to use Necron designs effectivly. The whole point was so I did not have to make the stats myself. Now, CAN I JOIN???

Oh? You were involved in that? The necrons that were 'OMG PSYCICALLY CONTROLLED' despite being totally psycically inert? The ones I do not recognise and never will except as a potential hoax by an exceptionally talented prankster? I especially liked the lack of understanding of necron gauss weaponary in that thread (a word to the wise gauss flayers =!= gauss guns) as well as the tiny and under-armed 'necron' ships.

I refuse to recognise such a blatant piece of 'Necrons are cool, but I'd rather take them as a part of my own nation's super army so I can have all kinds of other stuff too' any more than I recognise the numerous players with Jedi armies. Such rampant violation of the fluff on the necrons is bad, mmkay?

Just no.

Sweet... Necron... Are you Dragon, Outsider, Nightbringer or Deceiver controlled? Do you have Lords? Did you bring a Tomb Spyder with you? how many Tomb Worlds did you arise from? Have you transmogrified any pariahs yet?
*dying for info on another Necron player*

ADDED: Giltheran, perhaps we should create a thread for our negotiations. Since our negotiatons are hardly "space"

Deceiver, and the Dragon (The Nightbringer is around). Yes, many many lords. There is likely a Tomb Spyder around. A few dozen, but mostly Naogeddon itself. And yes, but not for a long time. It's complicated, and I must admit that there's some large divergances from the fluff, which are summarised on my history page. (http://www.necrontyr.plus.com/history.htm)

Giltheran: Please take the Naquadriah. You can buy Lord Atum off with it! :D

I'm going to have to withdraw from this RP, due to technical issues. The NS forums only load about one out of four times for me (II is more-or-less unaffected, strangely).

Negotiations Thread (http://forums2.jolt.co.uk/showthread.php?p=7863041#post7863041)

This is a negotiation thread for Giltheran and I but it is open for any who wish to negotiate alliances against the Anti-Elf Law

Now Giltheran, i believe i just offered you a bodyguard, troops, and 25 pounds of Naquadria.

This has got a *huge* #tag# from me. If only IC conditions didn't preclude me from exterminating my elves, and then exterminating elves throughout the universe.

<tag for further post; I’m interested in participating>

While Khrrck (http://ns.goobergunch.net/wiki/index.php/Khrrck) is not particularly fond of elves, we feel that we should stick up for our fellow non-humans and prevent senseless genocide. We shall be opposing any elf persecution.

WEll, the wars focus seems to have shifted from global elf-killings to a DGNT civil war. Its all good though, once the civil war is done with, we can go back to elf exterminating, or not.

I've got a spinoff thread going on here

I missed something. Is Mr. 47 back?
