The reborn Earth NA (for Not Another Earth. It's an inside joke, you had to be there :D ) Is open and accepting new members. If a diplomacy/ potential millitary RP set in Post Modern tech sounds like your thing, just sign up here, and when we have enough players (likely 6 to 12), I'll post the territorial Claims and IC threads.

Can I claim the pacific ocean, with no land?

In all due seriousness, I guess I could start up a second country. Let the nation of Havaco be formed! I shall claim the midwestern states of America, if that is alright. Let the nation of Havaco be formed.

My vice-thread mod and I have between us claimed all of Canada, the US, and Mexico. Everything else is open, we'll probably have a population cap on how much territory you can claim. Welcome aboard!

EDIT: You could claim the Islands in the Pacific if you wanted. We'll see how many players we have, that'll effect hte land claim limit, too. In fact, I may, if we gat enough players give up some of my claim.

Well, if we are talking about continents here, than I'll claim Russia, the countries west of them, and Iceland.

Please wait until we have enough players before you claim land. My vice-mod and I are reclaiming what we controlled on the original thread, but that's subject to change if we get a lot of people interested. Don't worry, lots of prime real estate available, (that includes Antarctica). Good to see you're enthusiasm, though. :D

I might be interested.

Count me in, when this starts.

I'm interested.

Great. Glad to have all of you aboard. I'll give it a little more time to see if anyone else signs up.

Bumpland. The location of the worlds greatest bump.

OK, I'm in. When do we start?

:D

OK, I'm in. When do we start?

:D

How does tomorrow sound to everyone?

How does tomorrow sound to everyone?

Depends on when tomorrow. Can we start after 3:30 PST?

Tomorrow's good. I'm in PST too.

What, is that 5:30 central? That works for me also.

And 6:30pm here on the East coast. I'll start the RP right after dinner.

Cool, so how are we going to determine how much territory one gets to claim?

That sounds good.

Sounds pretty good. I have a party to go to at 6, but I'll be back around 9ish.

Cool, so how are we going to determine how much territory one gets to claim?

It'll be by population, and a set amount of people per sq. mile. I'll explain on the RP thread.

I'll join perhaps. Depends which nations I end up with. (like if I end up with Greenland I'm not going to join). Hopefully I would like to claim the middle east.

You can't have Greenland Anywany, it's mine. We'll find out what eveyone ends up with this evening.

The reborn Earth NA (for Not Another Earth. It's an inside joke, you had to be there :D ) Is open and accepting new members. If a diplomacy/ potential millitary RP set in Post Modern tech sounds like your thing, just sign up here, and when we have enough players (likely 6 to 12), I'll post the territorial Claims and IC threads.

From WG Headline News, Wasted Genius News Network's 24 hour information service:


Breaking News: Earth NA To Add New Nations!

New and existing nations of Earth NA await the beginning of a conference to stake new territorial claims all over the world. The international meeting is expected to take place at 6:30 PM, Eastern Time and will be carried live on Maineiacs News Network.

The Liberal Utopia Maineaics will officially announce the rules and location of the meeting before it begins.

Stay tuned for more details as this story develops.


OOC: This is really just a bump.

OK, folks, sorry I'm late. Before we get into bidding, Let's lay down the rules:


1) No goddmoding. The era is post-modern tech, so while your nation may have a space program (if you can afford it, and RP the R&D), you do not have a fleet of Starships with warp drive and photon torpedos. Also, no pulling 50 million man armies out of your ass (or anyone else's ass, for that matter). Jet fighters can make intercontinental journeys in a few hours NOT 10 minutes, and they'll surely be seen on radar. and post your losses, not your opponent's.

2. The NS rules of RP ettiqute are in force here. I don't mind good-natured teasing, but if you have a serious problem with someone (even me), don't make verbal attacks on the thread, TG me, and we'll work it out.

3. Related to goddmoding, be realistic in your tech R&D. That means both in regards to timetables, and to having the usual setbacks, stalls, budgetary concerns, and mishaps.

4. RPing a war is fun, if it's done right, but try to come up with other stuff to RP as well. Anything from diplomatic and trade relations, to elections, to internal insurrections (I did that on the old thread, it was a blast), or even the pop culture of your nation.

Now some technical stuff:

The starting date is January, 2134. RP time progresses at 1 month per 1 day in RT.

claims can be posted here, so that the RP thread doesn't get clogged up with this stuff.

The amount of land you can claim is based on your NS population. Try to shoot for no more than 1000 people per sq. mile, and no less than 100. Hopefully this will leave some areas unclaimed, which can be either claimed by latecomers, or disputed diplomattically or millitarily IC.

Total land areas of nations can be found here.

http://www.infoplease.com/countries.html

just click on the nation you want, and it'll have its statistics listed.

OK, everyone, let's get this going. My last bit of business is to remind you all that the decisions of me, the God-emperor of Earth NA are final. If I'm not available, then talk to Wasted Genius, and his decision is final.

When you make your claim, let me know what color you want to be.


Antarctica is also open for bids. In this world, even though it wouldn't even be possible IRL, the Ice caps don't exist, except in the Arctic Ocean and seaonal ice around the shore of Antarctica. Coastal Antarctica and Greenland both have a cold-pine forest climate, Greenland like central Alaska, Antarctica is more like Siberia. The interiors are tundra. Antarctica can either be owned as a whole (5,400,000 sq. mi.) or split into hemishperes. The eastern hemisphere contains 2/3 of the land mass, but the western hemisphere has the only ports that don't freeze up in the winter.

I would like Senegal, Gambia, Guinea-Bissau, Guinea, Mali, Sierra Leone, Liberia, Cote D'Ivoire, Burkina Faso, Ghana, Togo, Benin, Nigeria, Niger, Cameroon, Central African Republic, Congo, Gabon, and Equatorial Guinea. This is 2,605,797 square miles and my NS population is 2.034 Billion so this is 781 people per square mile. For my color, I would like green.

Which Congo? Republic of, or DR Congo?

Republic of Congo, the smaller one.

OK, I'm here, but I'm going to lurk in the background for a bit because my claim looks good so far.

Yeah, your claim is secure, but who knows what kinf of naieghbors we're getting? ;)

I'll mainly be concerned with Africa...for the moment.

I would like to have the land mass of Austria-Hungary and Germany prior to WW1. Is that possible?

Also, can I wish it to be that we don't have to RP these lands grabs, and we just pretend they've been like that for the past 34 years.

Something like this:

On January 1st, 00:00, clocks around the world went berserk as they could not figure out what year it was. Systems crashed, and they could not be debugged. Riots happened everywhere, and overthrew much of the governments before starting huge governments to be in control of the world.

Scientists though, the next day developed a computer that they were working on for the past five years. It has three choices instead of just two, making binary obsolete for programs, and overall things went back into normal order, except for the countries.

The entire internet was wiped clean, and every gaming device with time also broke. The entertainment in America went towards sports, and soccer became the national sport there so that they could unionize with the rest of the world.

In only twenty years after the crash, computers were back onto the track of gaining speed. They were really expensive though, as many people went broke, and didn't have any money.

Obesity rates plummeted in the 34 years, and that is where we are currently...

Can this work as a backdrop or would we just have nothing going on for the next long period of time???

1) I can give you close to what you want. I can give you the present day boundaries of what they controlled back then; best I can do.

2) you only have to mention what happened prior to 2134 if it's germain to what you envision for your nation. For example, I will be mentioning something that happened to Maineiacs in the old thread in the year 2109. This had a lot to do with why I chose such an odd year; it's the 25th anniversary of that event. You do not have to RP obtaining your nation's boundaries.

BTW, what color do you want?

Can you do the jolt posting section (such as where you type this reply)? That would be cool.

huh? What are you talking about? :confused:

Oh well, just forget it. Any color you want.

A quick word about nukes and space programs. If none of the nations you control have nukes, you have to develop them in RP. Same for a space program.

I'll post the RP thread as soon as we hear from the others.

Can't we just ban nukes? They tend to ruin RPs and if someone gets angry they just launch hundreds of nukes at your nation and you are screwed.

I would like Albania, Bosnia & Herzegovina, Bulgaria, Croatia, Greece, Italy, Macedonia, Romania, and Serbia.

I'll take Blue.

But I see Bosnia and Croatia are already taken now that I post...

Not if they're smart, they won't. Only the most insane would launch a nuke attack when there's a 100% chance that somone wil retaliate. Form alliances. Make powerful friends. Or just RP the R&D of a missle defence system.

But I see Bosnia and Croatia are already taken now that I post...

The rest of your claim is noted.

I would like Cambodia, Japan, Laos, North Korea, the Philippines, South Korea, and Vietnam.

As for the color... orange sounds good.

Thanks.

I agree in principle. Or how about just calling them 'bad form.' We've tried this whole nuke thing before and it just doesn't work. And using more than tactical nukes borders on godmodding anyway in my opinion.

Or if you have a knowledge of late 60's cartoons, you could use the wayback machine in reverse mode. No kidding, its happened before - that's the beauty of Earth NA.

I'm inclined to agree, but I think "cold wars" can be interesting to RP, so I don't want to ban them altogether.

I propose that one of the first orders of business IC is to set up a world council to vote on such things. An Earth NA version of the UN. It could be just as toothless as the RL UN, but at least it would be a place where everyone could participate in the discussion.

If we decide to start an Earth NA UN, I'd like to propose that we discuss the nukes policy that will save us from having to start a war and find out what happens.

Worth considering.

But I see Bosnia and Croatia are already taken now that I post...

yeah, sorry. I gave you Montenegro as a consolation prize.

An Earth NA UN sounds like a decent way to start everything off.

Can we call it the World Council? UN is done to many times already.

Anyways, after all initial land grabs are completed, why don't we voluntarily close this thread so that we don't get 1,700 post threads...

Those are a huge waste of time in my opinion, and the server has to do a lot of processing to it.

yeah, sorry. I gave you Montenegro as a consolation prize.

I worked out my population density and I have to claim something else...
Also a UN might be good.

I'm interested, can I claim Brazil?

What color?

Oh, and when you change the map key, if my color shows "Havvy", can you change that to "Havaco"? I'm not sure if it isn't "Havaco", but if it's not, please change it as "Havaco" is my country name. Take away "s.

Yeah, my country will be called the Federation of African States (FAS).

Can I add Switzerland and Moldova to get my density right?

We still have one person to hear from, I'll TG him and see if he's still interested. If no one else shows up, I'll allow some more claims, although I would like there to be unclaimed land left over. Koramerica, welcome. Brazil is yours, choose a color. Cortellen, just tell me what you want, and its yours. Havvy and No Taxes, I'll make those name changes. Also, Havvy, are you talking about having our own page offsite? I'd do that, except I have no idea how. The Earth NA World Council is a good idea, and can meet in Maineiacs City.

I choose Mauve as my color. Can I use military equipment bought from NS Storefronts on Earth NA?

I choose Mauve as my color. Can I use military equipment bought from NS Storefronts on Earth NA?

I don't think I have mauve. How about purple? You'll have to be more specific about this millitary equipment. Tell me what it is, and I'll tell you if it's allowable.

I'm not talking about offsite forums. We'd get no new nations from that.

What I mean is that threads like "Reclamation of Earth V" are extraordinary long, and should be voluntarily closed, and that we could use NS Wiki to store the history of Earth NA II.

Anyways, I guess I'll be needing to do research about the countries in that area.

I don't think I have mauve. How about purple? You'll have to be more specific about this millitary equipment. Tell me what it is, and I'll tell you if it's allowable.


Purple is fine, I have bought many items from Kor MT Tech & Elite Arms Inc.
I hope you don't want the entire list. I could put together a Military Assessment Thread if needed.

I need to know if your stuff is acceptable. For example: no laser guns (I might allow slow and difficult R&D toward a laser cannon, but no rifles or pistols. Railgun R&D is acceptable), "primitive" hover tanks are acceptable, but nothing that resembles a giant anime robot, no warp-drive starfighters, no cyborgs (again, you can start R&D, but I won't allow you to have them right off), no clone armies, nothing super-exotic that can rip a wormhole open, or anything like that, and no time-travel.

So BF 2142 is a good example of what military equipment would be like?

No, they are air bases that carry troops and supplies to battlefields, have little weaponry and they are very slow.

This should be fine, but I'd want you to RP the R&D of that ship, and possibly the propulsion system, depending on what it is. Incidentally everyone, R&D for workable fusion power is allowed.

When do we start that?

Hmm. I never played Battefield 2142, but it looks like another game I'm a bit familiar with...

If we're going to do the pseudo-mech thing, just watch out for the 50 foot titanium punji sticks (http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b355/wasted_genius/Punji.jpg). :rolleyes:

The way I'm reading you Maineiacs is that you'd like to avoid the magical-nobody-knows-how-it-works-but-me tactic. We've been there and everybody just ends up scratching there head trying to figure out how to post a reply. I'm with you if thats the case. I like new tech, just as long as it doesn't involve learning a bunch of different stuff to RP it. Sorry No Taxes, no offense intended. I'll dive into your tech if you first can convince me that it'll be entertaining on some level.

Also, Havvy I'm on board with the name of World Council, sounds appropriate. Maybe the RL UN should take a clue and consider a name change too. The UN is n't all that united these days....

You've pretty much got it. If anyone does spring a mech on the rest of us, that post will simply be nullified. I'm not certain I'm being as clear as I'd like to be though, so I am thinking of judging weapons on a case-by-case basis.

BTW, Havvy, we'll start on Monday. I want to see if anyone else signs up.

I'm still working on R & D ( to be manufactured ) items, as far as lasers I will only use them as they exist in the RL. I'm working on a Rail Gun, a hover tank, and a few other things I will add later.

1230 KorStrike Fighters

http://usera.imagecave.com/Kormanthor/JSFLanding.jpg


The KorStrike Fighter (KSF) is a multi-role fighter optimized for the air-to-ground role, designed to affordably meet the needs of the Air Force, Navy, Marine Corps and allies, with improved survivability, precision engagement capability, the mobility necessary for future joint operations and the reduced life cycle costs associated with tomorrow’s fiscal environment. KSF will benefit from many of the same technologies developed for F-22 and will capitalize on commonality and modularity to maximize affordability. The KSF program will demonstrate two competing weapon system concepts for a tri-service family of aircraft to affordably meet these service needs:

456 V-22 Osprey

http://www.fas.org/man/dod-101/sys/ac/v-22.htm

The V-22 Osprey is a tiltrotor vertical/short takeoff and landing (VSTOL), multi-mission air-craft developed to fill multi-Service combat operational requirements. The MV-22 will replace the current Marine Corps assault helicopters in the medium lift category (CH-46E and CH-53D), contributing to the dominant maneuver of the Marine landing force, as well as supporting focused logistics in the days following commencement of an amphibious operation. The Air Force variant, the CV-22, will replace the MH-53J and MH-60G and augment the MC-130 fleet in the USSOCOM Special Operations mission. The Air Force requires the CV-22 to provide a long-range VTOL insertion and extraction capability. The tiltrotor design combines the vertical flight capabilities of a helicopter with the speed and range of a turboprop airplane and permits aerial refueling and world-wide self deployment.

The UES Space Shuttle

http://usera.imagecave.com/Kormanthor/x33-5_300-s.jpg

The UES flies much like the Space Shuttle. It takes off vertically and lands on a runway. However, there are differences between the two vehicles. The UES is a means of transport only. It is not used as a science platform like the original Space Shuttle. Also, the UES is a single-stage-to-orbit spacecraft it does not drop off components on its way to orbit. It relys totally on its own built-in engines to reach orbit, omitting the need for additional boosters. Unlike the original shuttle, the UES uses a new linear aerospike engine, which looks and runs much differently than the bell-shaped Space Shuttle Main Engine. Kore Tech considered the aerospike engine for the Space Shuttle 25 years ago, but opted to use the Space Shuttle Main Engine, also built by Koretdyne. The aerospike has been revived and enhanced to power the UES. The aerospike nozzle is shaped like an inverted bell nozzle. Where a bell nozzle begins small and widens toward the opening of the nozzle like a cone, the aerospike decreases in width toward the opening of the nozzle. The aerospike is 75 percent shorter than an equivalent bell nozzle engine. It is also lighter, and its form blends well with the UES's lifting body airframe for lower drag during flight. The shape spreads thrust loads evenly at the base of the vehicle, causing less structural weight, which allows it to obtain vehicle speeds in excess of Mach 15.

You can build the moonbase, but you don't get it for free. same for the floating cities. Don't expect to be the only one with these things though (I'm going to Mars, feel free to follow me;) ), The star fighter is out. Are these 12 Korde Class Spaceships civillian or millitary? If they're civillian, R&D them, or at least RP production (and convince me your nation can afford 12 of them). No one will have a starfleet. I need more info on this: Orbital Bomber Configuration. Everything else is fine. Thank you for having a realistic amount of them. In the original Earth NA, I had one guy who tried to convince me to let him have 1000 Battleships.

You'll be expecting my nation to be building a giant energy shield that would stop the ships from getting close to my country (Say 10 miles high it can be.)

I'll have to research what could stop them though.

I'm not building any spacey warcraft, as I don't like space as a battlefield.

The Korde Class Spaceship is civilian, the HJ-58 Phoenix’ has numerous versions one is an Orbital Passager liner. The Orbital Bomber version is military,
both are hyperspeed aircraft as they are powered by both scramjets and conventional rocket engines.

It's acceptable. I was planning on some scramjets myself.


OK, kiddies, we kick it off tomorrow. I think I'll allow you all to claim more territory. I still want to leave some areas unclaimed in case new people join, but your claims look rather small. So all of you may claim up to 1 million sq miles more (between all of us we could claim the territory of the former USSR, so it's not that much). My nation claims Bermuda, the Bahamas, and all the islands of the Carribean.

I'll take the Democratic Republic of Congo, Tanzania, Rwanda and Burundi. This is a little over 1 million sq. miles but my population density is still over 500 people per square mile.

I will take the Ukraine, Turkey, France, Spain, and Portugal.

I'll take Indonesia, Malaysia, and Taiwan.

All claims noted, and maps updated.

You forgot to add in Tanzania.

I'd like Argentina, Peru, Colombia, & Panama

That's way more than 1 million sq. mi, Argentina alone is 1 million. What's your population density with that?

OK ... how about Colombia, & Panama?

How about Bolivia, Paraguay, and Ururguay? that'll keep your claim in one piece. You'll also get much of the world's tin deposits, and a good harbor on Rio de la Plata, at Montevideo.

I want Panama for sure because of the canal, colombia just happens to be between Brazil and Panama.

I like my land grabs, but anyways, I think that is too much technology for me to grasp. Can we have a list of things that are acceptable somewhere (that could be a single post update by Maineiacs, and it has a description of what they are?

Maybe that'd be too much hard work, so I guess I could do it if you don't Maineiacs....

Ok, Columbia, Panama, Paraguay, and Uruguay? Can't include bolivia with that, because it'd be over the limit.

If you can find me a link that describes Post-modern tech, I'll put together a list.

Kormanthor's Post Modern Technology Storefront describes the Post Modern Technology Timeline as starting in 2026 & ending in 2105.

I'd like to claim the UK and Ireland. The UK includes Scotland, England, Wales, North Ireland, Shetland Islands and Rockall Islands.

I'd also like the Faroe Islands and Svalbard Islands. Faroe I. normally belongs to Denmark and Svalbard to Norway, but I'd like to separate them if possible, since nobody has claimed either Denmark or Norway. Svalbard is due north of Norway, just before you get to the arctic circle.

The total claim is about 146,000 square miles of some of the most miserable weather anywhere, but I think it has a certain homely charm, and I think I can fix the place up real nice.

Thanks, but I know where they are. You also get the Channel Islands (Jersey & Guernsey). I'll note your claims. Svalbard isn't on my maps, but I'll remember you have it.

Actually, I would like to claim the two small countries to the left of mine, and the two countries to the right of.

Actually, I would like to claim the two small countries to the left of mine, and the two countries to the right of.

More specific, please. There are 3 small countries to your left, and 4 to your right; not to mention Denmark to your north.

Netherlands, Belgium, Luxembourg, Poland, Denmark, and Czhech Rep.

I believe they are the names. It's hard to find any map on a computer with 16 colors on it.

That's going to fill in some gaps for me I guess.

Belarus, Latvia, Lithuania, and Estonia. Done. I'm also giving you Liechtenstien (between Switerland and Austria).

Alright. Sorry for making a bid deal about it. I'm not good with country names, and they are hard to find with a 16-color monitor.

Anyways, I am officially at the 250 post mark.

I post a lot more here, than I did at the last forum I was at.

Europe looks like it will be good.

I need people's opinions: do we leave the thread open for awhile longer, or go ahead and start the RP?

I am all for starting. I am assuming that our country's pop is our NS pop.

That's the plan, yes. W00t! 3.5 billion hippies! :D

I need people's opinions: do we leave the thread open for awhile longer, or go ahead and start the RP?


I vote to go ahead and start

Yeah I agree, the longer we wait, the more people that lose interest.

Thanks, is Koramerica your puppet?

My 600 million people feel left out of this huge population talk.

Anyways, is the thread started? I'll go look.

It'll be started this evening. I have some stuff to do IRL first.

BTW, look where? I'm stil not cleart on exactly what it is you're expecting me to do. I was going to have the thread on this site because I don't know any other way to do it.

I was going to have the thread on this site because I don't know any other way to do it.
I think it is best to keep it on this site, so it gets more visibility.

My pop feels very very small now...I have 187 million.

I need people's opinions: do we leave the thread open for awhile longer, or go ahead and start the RP?

I say we should start the RP as soon as we can. Now that I've got the Cow Islands I'm ready to er, get a moooove on. (thanks by the way for Jersey and Geurnsey, I missed those in my research)

Yeah, we should start pretty soon. By the way, nice pun.

Thanks, is Koramerica your puppet?


Thats what most people would call it I guess. Kormanthor is FT Only, plus it is rather large which makes some smaller countries nervous. So I made Koramerica to RP the NFT, PMT & MT Threads.

IC thread is up.

Is this still accepting members?

Would it be at all possible for me to claim Russia?

Wanderjar: yes, welcome. Make a claim.

Candistan: yes, as long as you understand that for now, that's all you're getting.

Both of you pick a color.

Well I made the first IC post in the thread.

*bump so the new applicants can reply*

Yeah, I'm cool with Only Russia for now. My color will be Dark Red.

Yeah, I'm cool with Only Russia for now. My color will be Dark Red.

I'm giving you the benefit of the doubt, and assuming you have at least the minimum 600,000,000 population to control that much land.

My NS nation has 1.111 Billion

That'll do. Russia's 6 million sq. mi. require a NS population of 600 million to 6 billion. You're fine. Welcome to the RP. Go on to the IC thread and introduce your country.

I'm still in. Can someone give me a update what have happened? witch countries have been claimed? Sorry for my abstains I have been sick...

Look on page 1 of this thread to see the maps; anything not colored in is available, as is Antarctica.

It is near the bottom of the 2nd page.

I forgot you would likely have your settings different than mine. The maps are on post #27.

Can you move them to post 1, or better yet, make a new thread altogether?

I would like to see the world as the first thread, because it helps people with a slow connection (as they don't have to wait to the 27th post to find the land grabs).

*bump*

OK I would claim, Yemen, Oman, Saudi Arabia, Egypt, Iraq, Iran, Jordan, Syria, Lebanon, Kuwait and the united Arab Emirates. In other words the muslim parts of the middle east

You need to pick a color.

ok I'll be black......

btw do we have a IC thread? has anything happened yet?

I'll take, red. I have a few questions.

Q1: This is PMT right?

Q2: Do we start out with the military our nation already has?

Q3: Or do we jsut make up PMT equipment?

Q4: What percentage of our pop do I use?

Q5: Do I use chinas real pop. or my NS nations pop.

By any chance can i claim anymore land?

You can't have red. I only have two shades of red, and they're both claimed.

A1: yes, PMT

A2: that depends on what millitary your nation has

A3: do research on what PMT tech is, and read the first page of this thread to see what's forbidden.

A4: all of it.

A5: Your NS nation.

What do you mean by depends on what your nation has?

I know pretty much what PMT is. Your front page donst really say what is forbidden or not.

What do you mean by depends on what your nation has?

I know pretty much what PMT is. Your front page donst really say what is forbidden or not.

You asked if you start with the millitary your nation has. That depends on if you fit the parameters of PMT and what I've set out here, and if your army size is realistic. Here are the relevant posts.

OK, folks, sorry I'm late. Before we get into bidding, Let's lay down the rules:


1) No goddmoding. The era is post-modern tech, so while your nation may have a space program (if you can afford it, and RP the R&D), you do not have a fleet of Starships with warp drive and photon torpedos. Also, no pulling 50 million man armies out of your ass (or anyone else's ass, for that matter). Jet fighters can make intercontinental journeys in a few hours NOT 10 minutes, and they'll surely be seen on radar. and post your losses, not your opponent's.

2. The NS rules of RP ettiqute are in force here. I don't mind good-natured teasing, but if you have a serious problem with someone (even me), don't make verbal attacks on the thread, TG me, and we'll work it out.

3. Related to goddmoding, be realistic in your tech R&D. That means both in regards to timetables, and to having the usual setbacks, stalls, budgetary concerns, and mishaps.

4. RPing a war is fun, if it's done right, but try to come up with other stuff to RP as well. Anything from diplomatic and trade relations, to elections, to internal insurrections (I did that on the old thread, it was a blast), or even the pop culture of your nation.

Now some technical stuff:

The starting date is January, 2134. RP time progresses at 1 month per 1 day in RT.

claims can be posted here, so that the RP thread doesn't get clogged up with this stuff.

The amount of land you can claim is based on your NS population. Try to shoot for no more than 1000 people per sq. mile, and no less than 100. Hopefully this will leave some areas unclaimed, which can be either claimed by latecomers, or disputed diplomattically or millitarily IC.

Total land areas of nations can be found here.

http://www.infoplease.com/countries.html

just click on the nation you want, and it'll have its statistics listed.

OK, everyone, let's get this going. My last bit of business is to remind you all that the decisions of me, the God-emperor of Earth NA are final. If I'm not available, then talk to Wasted Genius, and his decision is final.

When you make your claim, let me know what color you want to be.


Antarctica is also open for bids. In this world, even though it wouldn't even be possible IRL, the Ice caps don't exist, except in the Arctic Ocean and seaonal ice around the shore of Antarctica. Coastal Antarctica and Greenland both have a cold-pine forest climate, Greenland like central Alaska, Antarctica is more like Siberia. The interiors are tundra. Antarctica can either be owned as a whole (5,400,000 sq. mi.) or split into hemishperes. The eastern hemisphere contains 2/3 of the land mass, but the western hemisphere has the only ports that don't freeze up in the winter.

I need to know if your stuff is acceptable. For example: no laser guns (I might allow slow and difficult R&D toward a laser cannon, but no rifles or pistols. Railgun R&D is acceptable), "primitive" hover tanks are acceptable, but nothing that resembles a giant anime robot, no warp-drive starfighters, no cyborgs (again, you can start R&D, but I won't allow you to have them right off), no clone armies, nothing super-exotic that can rip a wormhole open, or anything like that, and no time-travel.

So BF 2142 is a good example of what military equipment would be like?

That depends on what, exactly, BF 2142 means.

Battlefield 2142 (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battlefield_2142), the PC game.

Possibly, but it looked like that had starfighters -- which aren't allowed -- or am I mistaken about that?

This should be fine, but I'd want you to RP the R&D of that ship, and possibly the propulsion system, depending on what it is. Incidentally everyone, R&D for workable fusion power is allowed.

Hmm. I never played Battefield 2142, but it looks like another game I'm a bit familiar with...

If we're going to do the pseudo-mech thing, just watch out for the 50 foot titanium punji sticks (http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b355/wasted_genius/Punji.jpg). :rolleyes:

The way I'm reading you Maineiacs is that you'd like to avoid the magical-nobody-knows-how-it-works-but-me tactic. We've been there and everybody just ends up scratching there head trying to figure out how to post a reply. I'm with you if thats the case. I like new tech, just as long as it doesn't involve learning a bunch of different stuff to RP it. Sorry No Taxes, no offense intended. I'll dive into your tech if you first can convince me that it'll be entertaining on some level.

Also, Havvy I'm on board with the name of World Council, sounds appropriate. Maybe the RL UN should take a clue and consider a name change too. The UN is n't all that united these days....

You've pretty much got it. If anyone does spring a mech on the rest of us, that post will simply be nullified. I'm not certain I'm being as clear as I'd like to be though, so I am thinking of judging weapons on a case-by-case basis.

BTW, Havvy, we'll start on Monday. I want to see if anyone else signs up.

I'm still working on R & D ( to be manufactured ) items, as far as lasers I will only use them as they exist in the RL. I'm working on a Rail Gun, a hover tank, and a few other things I will add later.

1230 KorStrike Fighters

http://usera.imagecave.com/Kormanthor/JSFLanding.jpg


The KorStrike Fighter (KSF) is a multi-role fighter optimized for the air-to-ground role, designed to affordably meet the needs of the Air Force, Navy, Marine Corps and allies, with improved survivability, precision engagement capability, the mobility necessary for future joint operations and the reduced life cycle costs associated with tomorrow’s fiscal environment. KSF will benefit from many of the same technologies developed for F-22 and will capitalize on commonality and modularity to maximize affordability. The KSF program will demonstrate two competing weapon system concepts for a tri-service family of aircraft to affordably meet these service needs:

456 V-22 Osprey

http://www.fas.org/man/dod-101/sys/ac/v-22.htm

The V-22 Osprey is a tiltrotor vertical/short takeoff and landing (VSTOL), multi-mission air-craft developed to fill multi-Service combat operational requirements. The MV-22 will replace the current Marine Corps assault helicopters in the medium lift category (CH-46E and CH-53D), contributing to the dominant maneuver of the Marine landing force, as well as supporting focused logistics in the days following commencement of an amphibious operation. The Air Force variant, the CV-22, will replace the MH-53J and MH-60G and augment the MC-130 fleet in the USSOCOM Special Operations mission. The Air Force requires the CV-22 to provide a long-range VTOL insertion and extraction capability. The tiltrotor design combines the vertical flight capabilities of a helicopter with the speed and range of a turboprop airplane and permits aerial refueling and world-wide self deployment.

The UES Space Shuttle

http://usera.imagecave.com/Kormanthor/x33-5_300-s.jpg

The UES flies much like the Space Shuttle. It takes off vertically and lands on a runway. However, there are differences between the two vehicles. The UES is a means of transport only. It is not used as a science platform like the original Space Shuttle. Also, the UES is a single-stage-to-orbit spacecraft it does not drop off components on its way to orbit. It relys totally on its own built-in engines to reach orbit, omitting the need for additional boosters. Unlike the original shuttle, the UES uses a new linear aerospike engine, which looks and runs much differently than the bell-shaped Space Shuttle Main Engine. Kore Tech considered the aerospike engine for the Space Shuttle 25 years ago, but opted to use the Space Shuttle Main Engine, also built by Koretdyne. The aerospike has been revived and enhanced to power the UES. The aerospike nozzle is shaped like an inverted bell nozzle. Where a bell nozzle begins small and widens toward the opening of the nozzle like a cone, the aerospike decreases in width toward the opening of the nozzle. The aerospike is 75 percent shorter than an equivalent bell nozzle engine. It is also lighter, and its form blends well with the UES's lifting body airframe for lower drag during flight. The shape spreads thrust loads evenly at the base of the vehicle, causing less structural weight, which allows it to obtain vehicle speeds in excess of Mach 15.

You can build the moonbase, but you don't get it for free. same for the floating cities. Don't expect to be the only one with these things though (I'm going to Mars, feel free to follow me;) ), The star fighter is out. Are these [other ships] civillian or millitary? If they're civillian, R&D them, or at least RP production (and convince me your nation can afford 12 of them). No one will have a starfleet. I need more info on this:[weapon system] . Everything else is fine. Thank you for having a realistic amount of them. In the original Earth NA, I had one guy who tried to convince me to let him have 1000 Battleships.



Sorry for the length of the post, but it contains a lot of pertenent info. If youi have more questions, feel free to ask. Whether you can claim more deppends on your NS population.

You asked if you start with the millitary your nation has. That depends on if you fit the parameters of PMT and what I've set out here, and if your army size is realistic. Here are the relevant posts.

Yes! I get it now. Alright. So basicly its MT on crack. So are SDs in or out here? I know some let them and some forbid them. I'm guessing by your post scram jets are in. so thanks!

Since my pop is 3.79 billion could i claim Mongolia to?

Accually I think this is PMT isn't it? I know scram jets are allowed.

Maineiacs do we need a military declaration page, if so will you make a thread for them to be posted in or should we make them individually?

Can I claim the pacific ocean, with no land?

In all due seriousness, I guess I could start up a second country. Let the nation of Havaco be formed! I shall claim the midwestern states of America, if that is alright. Let the nation of Havaco be formed.


An underwater community is an interesting concept

I would like to add the craft above as a new type of military transport in my military. What do you think Maineiacs?

Acceptable, if everyone gets them. I'm afraid that it would give an unfair advantage. I'd prefer millitary victory comes from superior number and/or superior tactics/logistics, not who has the coolest toys.

Good idea. I'll make one.

yes. Done, now pick a color other than red.

People Repbulic of China

So far i've looked at Chinas Military and all they have are some crappy older Russian copys of everything. So should I make my own units?

Yes, just keep it realistic, and PMT. Remember, China is Communist in name only, they're the real world's fastest-growing economy, and in 130 years, they're going to be rolling in cash, and spending a lot of it on millitary hardware.
