Guffingford

An OOC Prologue
Intro
Yes this is it. A chance for players to invade Guffingford. Now, as everybody knows forced fun ain't no fun so let's come to the case. From the players who sign-up here can he picked as a candidate to invade me. Me and only me will choose from them to ensure only the best are selected. It will be a limited number, and that's all I allow. However, non-invading nations are free to whatever they want except supporting the attackers directly. With direct support I mean cash, ammunition, soldiers etc. Indirect support such as spying - has to be well roleplayed. Something that doesn't borderlines on reading secret IC and covering it up - or using spy satellites, observation balloons. Main thing is, there will be losers in this war. I don't care if it's me, and I don't care if it's anyone else.
Powerwankers will be ignored. People who come here just to get even for all the things I done don't produce good stories. If you come in, blow off your steam from all your bodily openings while stomping on all competition just to say "I destroyed Guffingford" will be laughed at, whipped and thrown into the lion pit. New nations who have not a single grasp of knowledge about Guffingford just being here for a quick kill will not be allowed in. The rules may sound very nasty but hey, the old days of freeform mild regulated RP are over. Live with it. Hell, even if you RP here with a single character I won't be bothered. As long as you play well.
Acceptable:
Everything considered modern tech;
Story writing;
Character RP;
Able to accept constructive criticism;
Able to accept losses means being able to lose.
Not acceptable:
Gaining advantage through means such as puppetwanking;
Dozens alliances;
Calling in random allies just for the hell of it;
Future tech;
Magic and all associated fantasy things;
Last but not least: no earth crap. No E2. No E3. No whatever Earth X that has popped up when I was on holiday or too intoxicated to check out NationStates. You are a NationState, that means you cannot be any of the 193 USA recognized nations of earth and other territories. You are a country your own imagination has created. This is not a duplicate of one of the 193 countries. Thus it is 100% original. I will accept nothing less. I am so fucking sick and tired of the earths this is the only way I play unless I say otherwise.
History
Still reading? You never cease to amaze me. Well, the story is as follows: Me and Sarzonia had a RP some time ago where I played Theohuanacu. The nation is a big jungle much like Holy Panooly but there are differences. First of all it's a socialist left leaning government which makes it the only left nation in a sea of right wingers. The nation is a democracy in dictatorial Imperial Armies. Two things, but most importantly, it's soaked in oil. Rebels there fight Guffingfordian troops and pirates of Panoolian origin who work for the Guffingfordian government as mercenaries, because the Theohuanacu rebel network is gaining significant advantages. The Guffingfordian administration therefore has decided to support some armed factions to terrorize innocent Theohuanacu families to destroy the morale of the rebels. Of course, none of this news could be kept within borders so now it spreads like wildfire around the globe. You can consider this part RPed, because I said in the end of that thread the Theohuanacu resistance is strong and growing stronger. Want to know more about Theohuanacu? TG me and I'll hook you up on some more information.

Cast of Characters of Guffingford
These are the main characters I will be using in this RP. Because I'm still a child in the body of an adult I don't like any of these dying. Capture them or let 'em run, just don't let anything permanent happen to them. I wrote many RPs where they are the main figures, and they're important to Guffingford. Your cooperation is appreciated, thanks.
Mr Blair Munroe - AKA Blair Manson, named after Charles Manson
Notorious pirate of Panoolian origin started working for the Guffingfordian homeland defence in the late sixties. The typical rolemodel of a crazed Panoolian who kills, pillages and burns down villages for cold hard cash.
Fleet Commander Maynard Blouff - AKA The Naval Dictator
A respected and decorated sea marshall, the fleet commander Blouff has a dark side. One you don't see at cocktail parties and other naval galas. In charge of major gold, cigaratte and booze smuggling operations, as well as a financer of large black antique markets, Blouff is the toughest opponent.
Captain Lorgan Vimes - AKA The Trickster
Another pirate captain of the Guffingfordian navy. A skilled seafarer, a brilliant tactician but a weakness for gold and other precious metals. Uses his logistical fleet for the illegal import of blood diamonds from Angola and other African nations.
Captain Max Merriweather Dafydd - AKA Foulweather Dafydd
A criminal in a uniform. Max was a typical mobster when he was recruited into the navy by nobody less than Lorgan Vimes after he saved Lorgan's life by shooting a few holes in some shady figures who tried to rip-deal poor Lorgan. Dafydd was promised fast promotion, and he appeared to be quite an interesting and clever captain. His alcohol addiction has stopped him of becoming a Fleet Commander.
Leonard Ynsson, Minister of Defence
Leonard Ynsson made his way all the way to the top from a mere Captain of the Guffingfordian navy. Once a smuggler and quite a nasty and cruel pirate, he redeemed his ways in the wars against The Upper Congo by leading his troops to victory time and time again. Mr Ynsson has a darker side: many swear he killed a more popular candidate just to make him minister. Under his rule military spending went through the roof.
Paul Kruger, President of Guffingford
The mysterious president of Guffingford is rarely seen, but many say he's one of the best leaders this nation ever had. He's the one who issues public statements, decrees and proclamations. He likes being called president but he's just the millionth tin pot dictator Guffingford has witnessed.
Mr Retief Gooshen
Mr Retief Gooshen is the liberal leader of the Gooshenite Freestate located in the heartland of Guffingford. Pro civil rights, anti-dictatorship but powerless against the other freestates. Gooshen is a bastion of homosexual people, alternative lifestyles and other cultures deemed "unlawful" by Hoogenbosch. Stauch nationalism and Hooglander solidarity make this a very strange state. Don't kid yourself: the people who have taken refuge in Gooshen are likely to kill any foreign, non-Guffingfordian invader who dares to set foot in their regional capital. Idiotic as it may sound, it's highly possible they will ally themselves with the government that tried to kill them rather than to live free in another country.
Captain Archibald Bloomsburry
Panoolian by blood, this is the only non-naval freebooter that roams through Guffingfordian waters. On his ship, the Black Angus (a vessel from Stevid hijacked by his mad crew) he rules the southern seas and the Straits of Lapincuta.
In short...
That's it! From now I'll just wait and see who's interested and from there I'll start writing the IC bit. Remember, I am not saying I won't take allies in. Me vs all, 2 vs 4... Who knows. At least this thread has more potential than the average II thread.
Another victory.
