SupCom.

Well, if you have a good computer, than yes...but if no, then C&C is good, and I still own the original Red Alert 2 package.

AoM is good too, except that I don't like its population limits. With Rise of Nations, I edited the programming code of the game to change the pop cap from 200 to 100,000. The game isn't built for that though, so at around 1800ish, when you want to make more units, they don't appear for some reason.

Well, anyways....half day today at school, so hopefully I can stay on a bit more than usual.

May I have everyone's attention please?
Due to the ongoing situation we're all aware of involving me through several alliances, I shall have to take a leave of absence as an active ESS mod. I simply need to batten down my RP hatches and prepare for the very worst if what I fear happens, and with my off-site regional duties soon to balloon that only goes double.
I will be back whatever happens to my NS incarnation; after all, that's the beauty of Earths.:D But for now I need to concentrate on one situation or group thereof, so in my stead AB will be acting-mod and I shall not question his judgments. My best wishes, and I shall return.

Yeah, I was really looking forward to that, as it would give me something interesting to do. Hell, I was halfway finished with the intro post by that point; I still have it saved somewhere around here if I ever need it.

It is true that he has exams that will inevitably take up most of his time; this is the exam season, which may be why ESS business has slowed down so much. But hell, I have exams too, and I at least manage to get a word in every now and then. I'm disappointed that Eralineta can't even manage that much; a sentence of two every few weeks isn't so hard. if he doesn't have the time to play as China in ESS, he oughta drop the claim so that someone who does have time can do something with it instead, simple as that. By the time he's finished with exams and ready to RP again, there'll probably be another Earth in which he can claim China again anyway. Just my thoughts.

Oh, and one more thing. The FBR is NOT going to have a 10% population military. I am going to downsize in a little bit. I prefer quality over quantity, and the way I see it is that all of you guys with a 10 million man armies will most likely suffer horribly from a massive chain of command, extremely poor training, and a huge lack of equipment.

Lol, dont void him, just make it so that when he gets back on his country is being blasted to fuck and half his population is dead, including 90% of his military...

I was thinking more like 3/4, but I can do half. By the time Earth knocks back the alien scourge, anyway, China can be in ruins (by Thursday, Era!) which will make it easier for the rest of us to get (or some enterprising guy who wants in can try and rebuild it).

So are we going ahead with this alien thingy? Cause I really did want to aqquire the Balkan Lands and Greece before doing so, but it seems now my RPer for them is gone! Though, before Wagdog left we had basically had a handover deal for the Balkan states (I will leave Greece till after the alien thing I suppose) - it was that either me and Czech spilt the countries, or if he is not active I take them all. Well, there was the option of Czech taking them all, but after RP a bit of fighting I wasn't just going to give them up.

Yay, then I can finally get my hands on my much-desired Inner Mongolia! And maybe Manchuria too, if that's ok with y'all, as then I wouldn't be landlocked anymore. :D With the other parts of China, whatever, i'd love to see someone try to rebuild it; that would be cool, if a bit difficult.

Should someone TG Era and let him know, or just wait and see if he actually reads this? (Which I doubt.)

EDIT: Oh, and just for confirmation, what year is it now? 2009? Going by the one RL month=one ESS year system, I think that's it, but i'm making sure.

Could you tie up the thing in former Yugoslavia?

When the information is widely aviable I'll get my crazy Pope to denouce it - he'll be quite a big RPer for me in the build up at least to the invasion, as he will completely disagree with all alien thing, and maybe rustle up some Catholic demostrations against the governments lies about the aliens - and there's a lot of Catholics in the world. He'll also be used as Rome is one of the cities I plan to be attacked.

As for my government, I doubt they'll say much publically on the issue mostly behind the scenes stuff until Europe is hit. I don't really care about what alien type it is, I'll leave that to the more creative people who actually care ;)

Well, you see, the Bosporous is a UR base, 20 block out in each direction from the base is UR territory for settlers and workers. There is a prison camp in the East side of the city and a 1/3 mile buffer zone between the outermost Western UR Wall and the Kampferian side of the city.

I can let you have most of the way (since most of your cities, besides Lagos, are light pops). Besides, I don't have you scheduled for the opening attack run

Which is, if everyone's cool with it:

Washington D.C., Oslo, St. Petersburg, and Tokyo (if Courbornne can't make it much, I can switch that up for Johannesberg possibly, or New Delhi).

Well, since my nation is an authoritarian one, I have three percent of my total population in the military which comes out to be a little over 3.6 million people. I put a lot of money into defense and since I produce all of my own weapons, it lowers the price down quite a bit. Nations that aren't well supplied in natural resources and armaments with huge militaries tend to be underequipped, but an underequipped army can alwasy have that chance to hold its own against a technologically powerful one.

Accepted as Kenya, Nart. Basically, it is one of the remaining open nations that can actually make somewhat of an impact (it's strategically placed between the CAE and the SAD).

Honako, regarding military: If ou have higher forces, then the quality will go down-UNLESS, you pull funding from other areas. So, like in Candistan's case, maybe the military, larger than mine, is good, but other areas-like economy and society-will be lesser than mine, ie (going on the fact that the US only uses about .7% in the military).

I'll finish up the Amalgamation "factbook" (got their flag/logo made up), to explain their background.

I have increased numbers to compensate for my lack of a National Guard (I think it says something about a Home Guard in my factbook, but disregard that).

All the ones in Europe are taken (Andorra and Monaco are included as part of Spain and France really) - however , Greenland, Oman and United Arab Emirates may be open. Lebanon would launch you into a war possibly, and Kazakhstan I'm not so sure about...but we'll say it's Russia's or at least too much under there influence to even bother to take.

Also, there is Silvado's lands...Egypt, Yemen, Saudi Arabia. I recommend taking Egypt, Yemen, Lebanon, Saudi Arabia, Oman and United Arab Emirates (Greenland is a bit out on it's own) and forming quite a powerful group of countries, who will basically we the sole power in the Middle East.

Hundreds of billions including a bunch of little things that one can mow down with an MG with ease (I mean, look how easy it is to kill the Flood in Halo 2-now transfer that concept to the Infectors of the Amalgamation. Same concept).

The actual "tough guys" are in small numbers. The majority is Infectors or non-combat.

Yeah, but in one of your posts you mentioned the Infectors can change shapes and forms to let bullets go through them...I thought that the aliens had to shoot the infector with a special bullet/gun to kill it, otherwise it wouldn't affect it. Or maybe part of that was in your factbook? I think so. I understand that the flood ws easy to kill - but in number (especially hundreds of billions vs. 7 billion here - and our militaries don't even make a billion) they are effective. The civil war could be of some help to us, but still - that's a shitload of aliens.

Yeah, that was civilians saying that, and I doubt animarnia would do that anyways.

Maybe a rock, but you can't even see a bullet move-and neither can these guys. Once a bullet gets 'em, they're toast. It's too fast for something like that to intercept. I just mentioned "kinetic impact", meaning that maybe if you rolled a boulder at them, they might be able to latch on and slip around-but not shrapnel, or missiles, or the like.

As for the Flood: don't know about you, but with one SMG I found them easy on Halo 2 even on Heroic level...
