NationStates Jolt Archive

If anyone wants to ask questions about my nation, about things like religion, capital and so on, go right ahead on this thread. You may give me ideas.

Not a question of your nation, but I was wondering if you wanted to RP a small invasion force invading your nation? I would be happy to provide the force, semi-closed RP perhaps? Im open to suggestions, or even a different idea.

If you like the idea, I will have a question. Got a rough guide so I can RP, preferably with landscape description, enemy force info, nation size etc.?

I don't know how to RP in a war though but I will consider it, Deltara. Also, do you know how to make a factbook? I have read ones of others and thought I would consider making one for Wittenburgia.

Perhaps a diplomacy thread, Deltara? I could do the war idea, of your forces invading my lands, I am new to war, etc.

With the war idea, you wouldnt have to worry about being a colony of Deltara or something. I would quite happily RP a loss, after all, you cant win them all!

To make a factbook, you can do one of two things. You can copy another nations, or you can put anything in that you feel is useful/stuff you can refer to. For example, you can have nation X, who has one like so:

Full Nation Name: The Kingdom of Nation X
Short form: Nation X
Population: 34,000,000
etc.

This would be laid out all in one post. On the other hand, you could do one like I chose to do it, with contents and posts with info for RPing and stuff, like the names of my ministers or my general and hero list.

Rping in a war.

Roleplaying a war is just like roleplaying anything else really, except there is death and general destruction. There are various links to help you, such as Euroslavias list of useful links or whatever its called. Just look at the stickies, its somewhere. (Euroslavias very helpful sticky (http://forums.jolt.co.uk/showthread.php?t=408855))

If you have any other questions, I would happily answer them. I would very much like a war RP, but until then, perhaps a diplomacy thread could be a good idea to build political tensions and set-up a basis for war? Im still open to ideas.

Remember, if everyone is having fun in the RP, you must be doing something right!

I wouldn't mind getting involved if this becomes war...

Some of my higher-ups are still miffed about Wittenburgia refusing to become a protectorate.

I do have a question though, to keep on topic. What is Wittenburgia's political system?

If this war happens, I would like to be involved

Thanks for the info, Deltara. I guess we could do either a diplomacy RP first then a war or a war RP first. To the Aeson, Wittenburgia's political system is a Consitutional Monarchy (may change later).

Perhaps, once my Kraven fiasco is finished and my nation rebuilt, we could have a small war/wargame?

That's a possibility.

Well, I will set-up a thread. I think war first, and I will introduce reasons why. Any ideas as to what previous circumstances could have occured? One thing that would link in with world events is that Queen Elizabeth has just given birth to a child, and since you are a monarchy also, this child could be within your family line also, and there was argument about the marriage of Queen Elizabeth with King William in the first place, causing much tension.

Just an idea. If you say so, I will open the thread and give you a link.

(For the information, it was my pleasure)

What is the state of Wittenburg's military

I don't know of the state of my military, Franberry. Deltara, that is a good storyline but how does the child come from my royality again?

King William married Queen Elizabeth, who it has never been said to what nation she was born. For the sake of the RP, I will say that she was from Wittenburgia, and married King William, despite political tensions already existing and rather controversially.

Now the Queen has given birth to a child, and the embers have ignited once again. Both nations are on the breaking point of war, and there can be an event where it just becomes too much (caused by you to trigger the following.. maybe even going as far as an assassination of the child?) and a force is sent into Wittenburgia.

I hope that made it a bit clearer.

That sounds like a good idea, Deltara. Create a thread if you want for it. Also, I would like to know is the child a boy or girl (does Deltara go from King to Son or King to Son or Daughter?). Wittenburgia can fight Deltara, though I may need help with RPing war. Your post made it clearer too.

Deltara, create a thread when you are ready to then.

I am just working on thread, you would eventually (first post) have found it the child is a male by the name of Harry Salvidor Richard Depletarian (Depletarian being the family name), and my plan before this was that if he came to power he would become King Salvidor. This is of no importance now of course, unless you decide to do something different.

Not to be a jerk or anything but I want to use my nation's Royal Family name for the child as I don't know if Harry Salvidor Richard Depletarian is supposed to be from Wittenburgia.

The child is technically son of King William Depletarian, hence the name. However, you have pointed out a potential reason for argument within the RP. You can RP this, and that could be where the dispute comes from. You could even RP the kidnapping of the child to claim it as your own, since it is the child of someone in your bloodline.

Almost done. Keep an eye out for the thread "A Child Is Born" in II.

For your millitary budget you would normally go to http://nseconomy.thirdgeek.com/, but you're in too big a region. If you move to something smaller you can go there. I don't know if there's a similar program that works for all regions.

Thanks for the info, Aeson and Deltara. I may consider kidnapping the child but I may not choose to. I will keep out for the thread too, Deltara.

A Child Is Born [Closed, ATTN: Wittenburgia] (http://forums.jolt.co.uk/showthread.php?p=10778954#post10778954) iscase you havent noticed it yet.

I've noticed it. I will reply soon.

I am allowed in, right?

I suppose, if you can think of a good way of becoming involved. If you are miffed about Wittenburgia refusing protectorate, I suppose you could always invade simultaneously but seperately. My force will barely be enough to win (and I will most probably RP a loss or retreat).

You will of course have to wait until the appropriate moment to enter I suppose also.

Hey there, it can't be two against one? Can it? Pythogria, would you like to aid a ally? If Aeson attacks along with Deltara then you can help fight them back. What do you say, Pythogria?

Well, I can't land troops.

But I can use my sattelite weaponry!

Satellite weapons are good. Why not land troops by the way?

remember, I am not sending in a substantial force, I was just thinking of a way to get Aeson in. If you wish them not to, thats fine with me.

I thought it was to be Deltara against Wittenburgia? Perhaps in another RP, Aeson vs. Wittenburgia?

Well, my troops are busy fighting Kraven right now. My sattelites are open though. I must ask though...

Wil lyou approve of the following?

Orbital Flare: Focuses sunlight into a laser-esque beam.

Rods of God: Dop nine-foot rods of steel to Earth. Focuses kinetic energy almost the equivalent of a nuclear blast. Mine explode once all energy is transferred.

Kabalts: Orbital cannonballs.

Avalanche System: Fires watermelon-sized projectiles at Mach 1. Targets enemy sattelites, enemy ships, and missiles in the atmosphere.

Fortress System: Contains an Avalance Launcher, a large point-defense laser, and missiles.

Did I do a good post on the Child is born RP? I have a idea for it. If I do kidnap Harry, perhaps Deltara can kidnap one of the Imperial Family's children in retaliation?

Pythogria, I could agree to that but Deltara will need to agree too.

I wasn't really planning on invading, just yet, and probably not allied with Deltara. But I'd like to have a hand in these events.

It would definetly, in the event Aeson does invade, not be in alliance with Deltara. We have nothing, and shall continue unless events turn out so, having nothing to do with them.

Pythagoria, your weapons sound PMT, not MT. Correct me if I am wrong. I think Aeson invading within this may be too much, as would having PMT weaponry within an MT thread. Having a hand in events could involve, remember, giving funding to Deltaran forces or lending them some firepower. It doesnt necessarily mean fighting you directly.

What kind of hand do you speak of, Aeson?

Deltara, what did you think of my idea? It could make things more interesting in the RP.

Well, I do RP 2015. I won'y be using God Rods and Orbital Flares too much.

From history of my nation, retaliation is soemthing we would happily engage in. I think its a good idea. The retaliation would come, most probably, as soon as we invade. Kind of the landmark of the start of the war.

Actually, I think that I might Rp a bit of an argument in my government onm who to support.

What kind of hand do you speak of, Aeson?

Probably covert ops. Maybe providing intelligence to one side or the other. Perhaps both. Sound reasonable?

I guess you could try that, Aeson. I don't know if you could, and ask Deltara too to see what Deltara thinks.

Probably covert ops. Maybe providing intelligence to one side or the other. Perhaps both. Sound reasonable?

It is completely reasonable. The Deltaran Intelligence Service (DIS) provides already excellent intelligence, but it works with other agencies worldwide to provide extra info, so it would fit in on that front.

Great. Deltara, I will send men to kidnap Harry (probably without orders, perhaps) and you can kidnap one of the Imperial children. I will post the number of Imperial children and info on the Imperial Family later.

Deltara, would you kidnap first or would I? Because you said ''The retaliation would come, most probably, as soon as we invade.''

You do, and then simultaneously with the invasion force would be the kidnapping, retaliation.

I guess I could do that. I will post on the Child is born thread, the children of the Imperial Family so that you could pick a target.
