...And that's precisely why I posted this thread. Anyone interested in some sort of roleplay with me, be it military, diplomatic, or terrorist (wouldn't be the first one), can request one. While I'm slightly ashamed to post this right now, in my prime, I constantly need to have a fast-paced RP life, despite my history. >_>

You see, my nation is new here (I just started playing Nation States). I had asked about a diplomatic RPG as I would like to have friends and/or allies with other more established nations. I have not RPed that much so I would like some help with it. Do you have any info on it or anything for me? Thanks.

Yeah, me too...I've never personally used nukes in an RP, but I suppose this could be a good time to start. :p

I've always wanted to do a more realistic piracy rp. About a month ago, there were several (at least three) different rps in which piracy was suddenly a threat to a nation. None were done well. So, perhaps either a ship of yours mutinies, with myself rping as the mutineers, or perhaps the pirates are ordinary (Indonesian-style) pirates? Of course, if you're not interested, then...

I have a third world country thats kind of based on West Virgina with a dash of Arabian Mountain Nomads that I would really like to start RPing with. I haven't found a place for it yet, so I could put it somewhere around yours and we could start a good RP.

Ah, yes...I know what you mean. I'd be happy to help your nation get settled. I'm up for a diplomatic RP.

I had an idea like that a few weeks ago. I'm confident we could make it work.

How about a couple destroyers from the Comatic navy mutiny, then go on to attack Comatic shipping and assorted vessels...?

Perhaps a general in my army, snapping from the pressures of the several wars that have recently swept over Comatica, begins having hallucinations and vivid dreams that he can't distinguish from reality. One of them involves a Spitzanian threat against the United Empire, so he orders a nuclear retaliation.

Alright. Would it be a closed RP?

Also, would this be closed?

One more thing: I don't want the mainland of my nation affected by the nukes, which holds about 20% of my poulation. Feel free to hit anywhere else on this map (besides the mainland, of course):

There is a very large naval base and airfield combination base in south-eastern Narien, with about 40 naval vessels and 600 planes. Also, there are two naval harbors on Ladinah; one just south of Nevultala, and the other on the north side of Pereteua.

Closed. The mutineers/pirates will be operating in and around Narien; they may also get help from local opposition groups in Narien.

Agreed. I'll post the actual mutiny on Sunday, then you take over their roles.

Let's see:

Jester class destroyer

6 170 mm heavy deck cannons
2 launchers (8 missiles each) for SSMs
1 launcher (8 missiles) for SAMs
30 Depth chargers
10 25 mm manually operated deck guns
Max speed 33 knots

Comatic class missile frigate

4 165 mm heavy deck cannons
3 launchers (8 missiles each) for SSMs
2 launchers (8 missiles each) for SAMs
1 launcher (6 missiles) for Skimmer missiles (missiles that fly very close to the surface of the water....within 6 inches. Makes it harder to defend against)
2 launchers (8 missiles each) for any various missiles
10 25 mm manually operated deck guns
Max speed 37 knots

Emperor class battleship

10 425 mm heavy deck cannons
2 launchers (8 missiles each) for SSMs
2 launchers (8 missiles each) for SAMs
40 depth chargers
4 torpedo tubes
2 launchers (8 missiles each) for any various missiles
18 25 mm manually operated deck guns
Max speed 30 knots

Stasis class cruisers

8 175 mm heavy deck cannons
2 launchers (8 missiles each) for SSMs
1 launcher (8 missiles) for SAMs
1 launcher (6 missiles) for Skimmer missiles
35 depth chargers
2 torpedo tubes
14 25 mm manually operated deck guns
Max speed 39 knots

I'm not exactly naval-hero extraordinaire, so let me know if this info isn't sufficient.

Also, I like the fact that you use your pirates as rebels against the Comatic Empire. Probably could be enough to incite a revolution. >_>

Speeds for the first two ships are a bit high; make them ten knots slower, and you'll be fine. The battleship should have 6-12 larger (406.4 mm (16")) guns, so as to make it a battleship.

All my ships will be a bit undermanned at first; hopefully, I'll secure rebel support.

What sort of defences and crew does the average Comatic container ship have? One of those will be my first target...

A military tanker has a crew of about 95, including engineers and technitions and such. Not much in the way of armaments...usually there's an automatic rifle for each man, some with attached grenade launchers. There are about 10 to 15 RPG launchers onboard. Also, there are about 9 1.5" deck guns, and 2 180 mm deck cannons. Plus 1 launcher with 4 SSMs on it.

Uhh...the destroyers and the frigate have 1 helipad, with two choppers. The cruisers have 2 pads, with 3 choppers, and the battleship has 3 pads with 6 choppers.

Excellent. Well, my idea is a combination of all three of those you mentioned. The plot, I suppose, is this:

A Comatican ambassador is visiting THL to secure closer ties after the Federation joined GAPTS. The first page or so will be about diplomacy. Anyway, you see, as a result of the Federations hegemony in it's region, a lot of nations have come to loathe the federals and all their allies. A sleeper cell in the Federation is activated, and both the Federal and Comatican ambassadors are killed in the ensuing attack. In the end, we both get an entire continent of religious fanatics to fight!

What do you think?

Ahh...alright, then. Narien (and the other Barrow Sea provinces too) is angry because of Comatica's imperialist government. Narien was conquered and annexed after a brutal war 150 years ago, and, in a sense, they haven't gotten over it. Quite recently, Comatica failed to protect Narien on several occasions, leaving their land and citizens open to attack. The most recent was the nuclear attack by Spizania, among other attacks by other nations. This accumulated, until someone was brave enough to act on it (Captain Marcus).
