[Post OOC comments here NOT in the IC thread]

Could i ask what the point of this war is?

To me it just seems like you are trying to become a war mongerer, not something you should be trying to become!

KDX: Actually, Kahta has had a past history of rascism, oppression, and perhaps even genocide. Thusly, a coalition of nations has risen to oppose him, including SafeHaven2 and Tyrandis. Since the Macabee Empire is an ally to the former and a friendly to the latter this operation is imperative to the stability of Macabee relations and the Macabee world.

Kahta: Although your IC was AOK, for future reference SSIXS transmissions, especially those which are encrypted, cannot be read - the US uses SSIXS to talk to their submarines. But, you could have known since you've probably seen the fleet leave through sattelites (although you don't know about the submarines), and past relations point towards possible Macabee intervention in Kahta.

well the MiG-41s could go Mach 4.2, but currently were only going Mach 2.5 to conserve fuel and due to the horrible weather conditions and the fact that they didn't want to arrive too soon in Kahta.

Can you tell me what super metal lets your aircraft reach Mach 4.2? You're plane would just tear to shreds against the air pressure... mine go around Mach 3.3, and even that's a huge stretch...but no matter, as long an RP is made.

OOC: This is exactly what I said back when I was planning a war on DA in Angola, there's no way you can hit Mach 4.2, esp. if all your plane is built is out of titanium and aluminium...

Not to mention the fact that DA's "MiG-41" has a total engine output of something like 27,000 lbs if I remember correctly, meaning that its thrust-to-weight ratio would make achieving Mach 2 a stretch...

Ooc- I can't explain it because I don't have the knowledge of aeronautics to do so, but there are aircraft the US military has, which have classified speeds (rumored to be Mach 5). My father, an engineer, assures me that it is not impossible to do, but it would require lots of research and would be expensive (and my MiG-41s took a long time to research and are expensive). But I am sorry I cannot give you the explanation you deserve because I have no background in aeronautical development.

OOC: Yes, the United States (and Russia) has aircraft that go up to Mach 5, perhaps more, however, there's a direct relationship between velocity/altitude/type of aircraft.

The aircraft which reach such high velocities (S-71) fly high in the upper atmospheres of the earth, not 40,000 feet to 60,000 feet altitude.

OOC: Kahta what did my massive missile strike do?

Ooc- Kahta just went to sleep, I'm sure he'll reply later. Speaking of which, I need to finish my work, finish my nightly drinking, and then go to sleep. I may make a few posts though if the opportunity presents itself. But I'm not really in a long sit down and write a massive post, mood, tonight, you know?

I will be interested in eventually joining this sharad but at the time being with time restriants, I cannot.

Ooc-

Please specify which Czar Fabus you are talking about.

There is Czar Roger Fabus of MS, and Czar Sam Fabus of Kahta, so please specify.

Thanks.

Man all those Fabusses... Does it really matter? Both are going down.

Sam isn't really a Fabus, I believe he just changed his name so that he could have a chance at Curtis Fabus' fortune, when Cutis dies. If that will happen waits to be seen.

The thing that always makes me confused is how a handful of families can control the entire GDP of a nation and somehow keep it running. How are you paying your workers? How are you maintaining your armed forces?

This has been explained, their wealth is independent of the national GDP. Bill Gates has billions of dollars, but that doesn't mean the USA has billions less just because he is rich.

You just don't get it, do you?

I think the argument is over were the money came from in the first place...

Other than that, as Guff has dropped out to fight an über war, do I get to take his place?

If Guff dropped officially then yes.

I am worried the RP is going to heck, it seems to be falling apart...

I don't see that at all...

Can I get in? *(oh for god sakes, I really did have an army planted in the Chesapeake before all this started)

I would but Momanguise did ask me first a loooong time ago.... I have to talk to Guff.

Dont forget about me, I want in to.

Ok, did Guff drop it officially? I have a huge list of people who want to get in...I can either go person by person or I can choose the best man of the list which would be obvious to me...well they're both obvious to me..what do you guys think?

Yes he did, quote follows:

I would also like to take the oppertunity to announce the pull back of all German vessels near Kahta and the Mississippi Federation
