Mussle: I can find you some Saudi AF info.

Everyone: How does Terre have all that equipment (some of which I don't recall him buying), with such a low GDP? Nicaragua is a third-world country, pretty much, and fairly unstable as well. Especially if the turmoil he describes is going on.

Hell, like that, I could buy Russia. Entirely.

He doesn't. He claims to have a gdp of 194 billion, which is over 1000% higher than his actual GDP of 16 billion. we discussed this a few pages back, late last night, and determined it was god-moding

Well, for starters, the Kitty Hawk is the ONLY ship of her class. The only other ship that comes close to it's Design/Class/Etc would be the USS Constellation. That ship is Decom''d, and nations [including the UK] have offered to buy such ship but have all been turned down. Carriers are EXTREMELY difficult to build and maintain, which is why most nations outside the US/UK/Russia[This RP - USSR]/China don't even have a single damned carrier ship.

Also, why the hell does Nicaragua need a Carrier? For fucks' sake, a Carrier is meant to deal with far away threats...not threats that are less than a US-State away! Anyways, apart from that -

It is not completely unrealistic for Nicaragua to build a Carrier Ship, but one like the Kitty Hawk or anything past the late 40s is just...it's never going to happen.

Also, the GDP jump is a total Godmod whether you believe it or not Nic'. Anyways, I'd say just go back to your original GDP and sit there and actually come up with a way to make it climb. In the mean-time, I'd avoid any war unless you know your Government is completely Stable [Which you can write it as a stable Government, but knowing the country you are RPing...I'd say a lot of hidden Genocides and the such would be in order to keep people in-check. Something very Saddam like, also Central American countries really hate having wars that are between two nations...I'd expect a LOT of flak, even if it is from NPC nations.] and you actually have someone big and strong to back you, secretly and/or in-the spotlight. [IE - Talk with Honako, set up some crap, have US Navy Seals or Rangers or the Air Force par-take a little bit to help you topple whoever it was you're invading again. You only need that much, and to Mr. H...you can keep it totally secret as well. Think Panama, just without the stupid "OH YEA THAT WAS US!!" afterwards.]

Well...there's my two-cents I guess.

Japanese investment could certainly turn up Nicaragua...look how much Japanese immigrants did to South America's rise (especially Argentina) :D

[/Selfish Promotion]

Either way, Japan's government actually would likely assist in such a manuever against Honduras, possibly (by tomorrow, since tomorrow Article 9 gets overturned), but would have to keep a bit of a secret...but of course, Japanese efficiency is proved everyday by watching a road (see all those Hondas and Toyotas...)

Oh and mate I am buying Nuc reactors off someone so I don't need much economic power if there builden them for me. :D

Your buying nuclear reactors off the UK - they are one of America's closest allies, and trust me, we will be watching you. And, these are only for nuclear power - and the UK government no doubt will be keeping checks that is all they are used for. Again, if you want to have a chance of creating nuclear weapons, I suggest you try and make peace with the US. I don't want to crush your dreams about being a nuclear weapon fulled country - but when your classed by the US and probably the USSR (you insulted them really too) as dangerous, it's unlikely they are going to want you to have these weapons.

Anyway, all I have sold Terre is 295,000 guns - no planes, ships anything as of yet. So anything American on that list, if they is anything, can be crossed off. And Terre, I have MSN sure - however I'd prefer if you said whatever you want to say via TG's.

Also, you never really expressed any interest when I talked about an anti-aggression pact and economic agreements in my post in your factbook...be kind Japan.

Where exactly is this People's Democratic Liberation Army based out of? And how the hell is an organized army supposed to travel around the world wreaking havoc on capitalists? An Islamic state-sponsored terror group (Like what I plan to start in the coming months or so) would be much more believable than an army since it is more discreet and low-key. I also agree with Granate that we need more effort than "We want AShM's, how much." in a post.

BTW, has anyone ever heard of the Toyota War? Something like that might happen soon...

The US respect Japan being neutral and all, however if it plans to buy equipment from the USSR and help Saudi Arabi it is sort of trying to get them annoyed - all starting with the anti-aggression pact with the USSR. Japan is playing a sneaky game, and it's hard to know what side he leans towards. :p

Cali: An offer from Japan to South Korea in the Sales thread.

Honako: The increased tariff only applies to Britain (urgh! Japanese investors ANGRY). That was part of my motivation to go to Saudi Arabia and make my little devious oil deal.

About the economic and non-aggression pacts-I think I missed those. lemme go check my factbook, and I'll post a response there in a sec to 'em. I'm all for economic pacts that can help me out (but in Japan, Japan is number 1 :D)

Very boring I know (well not for me as I get to find out your stance on me) but it's nessecary really if your neutral and want to buy. And it's basically a way of me having an excuse so people don't bug me about buying stuff. Also, if you are trying to buy American retired equipment you will likely be accepted - if you want the good stuff, it is far less likely.

Oh, some highly favorable trade freeness (is that a word?) between nations, access to the high-end Japanese tech that Sony always seems to uncover that usually never leaves Japanese borders due to the government's nutty restrictions on tech leaving the border (IRL, it's horrible)...and possibly a joint program into further research into space ability, since Japan's space agency would be more than willing to shoulder a lot of the load. Imagine the possibilities in telecommunications, battlefield imaging, tactical ability, etc., etc...

Overall, an awfully good deal, and through it, plenty more looks for resource buying.

Obviously, that wouldn't all come off the first bat, but if things were looking up with the initial boosters, it could certainly come up that way.

I'm sorry if I irritated you, it was not my intention. However, to speak the simple truth, had Yugoslavia wanted to have a nuclear weapon it would have built one IRL. However, nukes are costly and they saw no real purpose for having one, for should NATO have attacked them SU would have had enough nukes for them, and vice versa, really.
In this gameworld, this nation held together. In this world, their economy is stronger and, in this world, I decide what this nation has done with its money for the last few decades. It has built nuclear reactors, a couple of submarines and now - atomic bombs. The material? Built. It's not that hard for a decent-sized modern European country. Uranium is easy to buy.

So, besides it being irritating to you, can you find any real arguments for the claim Yugoslavia could not have nuclear weapons?

I'm sorry if I irritated you, it was not my intention. However, to speak the simple truth, had Yugoslavia wanted to have a nuclear weapon it would have built one IRL. However, nukes are costly and they saw no real purpose for having one, for should NATO have attacked them SU would have had enough nukes for them, and vice versa, really.
In this gameworld, this nation held together. In this world, their economy is stronger and, in this world, I decide what this nation has done with its money for the last few decades. It has built nuclear reactors, a couple of submarines and now - atomic bombs. The material? Built. It's not that hard for a decent-sized modern European country. Uranium is easy to buy.

So, besides it being irritating to you, can you find any real arguments for the claim Yugoslavia could not have nuclear weapons?
Who said I was talking about Yugoslavia? To my knowledge, the former state Yugoslavia was quite the nuclear capable state as it has quite a history with the weapon itself.

Let me rephrase.

I sort of find it irratating how random nations from out of the blue start nuclear programs which can produce a nuclear weapons within the year without announcing a purchase of the nuclear missiles themselves, or the stuff to make the bomb.

Oh, some highly favorable trade freeness (is that a word?) between nations, access to the high-end Japanese tech that Sony always seems to uncover that usually never leaves Japanese borders due to the government's nutty restrictions on tech leaving the border (IRL, it's horrible)...and possibly a joint program into further research into space ability, since Japan's space agency would be more than willing to shoulder a lot of the load. Imagine the possibilities in telecommunications, battlefield imaging, tactical ability, etc., etc...

Overall, an awfully good deal, and through it, plenty more looks for resource buying.

Obviously, that wouldn't all come off the first bat, but if things were looking up with the initial boosters, it could certainly come up that way.

Nice idea, but I was actually looking the other way towards buying the Brazilian corvettes-I want to strengthen South American relations (none of you are aligned, miraculously), so that would also be in my intentions. Seeing as Brazil is the strongest South American nation...it would make sense.

I'll also keep that in mind, though, for future referance.

Are you saying you don't want the Tomcats? America, for the meantime only sell retired planes. If you don't, I'll suppose you can buy from Russia if you want - I mean, according to Wiki they don't even have 24 Su-35 - so if you take what they do have off there hands for me it will be useful. :p

And yeah AB, I was planning to sell them off anyway - you might as well have them if Granate doesn't want them.

They have more. Things have sped up considerably, considering you are putting the Zumwalt into service already when in reality it won't come into service for another two or three years.

Also, I said All or Nothing back in the market thread. You can't pick and choose, I need a standardized Air-Force so repairs are reduced, so having planes from two different nations kinda messes with that,

Honako: I'm always quiet about those things :P. I can keep that one as quiet as I need...Japanese intel and secrecy is pretty good right now.

I can stay out of it, it's just that it's not in Japan's interests to see a nation that seems to have no interest in Japanese goods come to dominate Central America...

I explained this already... just can't see what's the goddamn' problem here!

Yugoslavia was doing fine, until the late 70's decline of the Soviet block economies started to be felt there too. This is where they moved away from the block, became more neutral, and did libertanian reforms.

In 90's, when Tito died, 1.Soviet Union did not collapse, 2.There was no civil war, 3.There was no Kosovo war, 4.There were no international trade blockades or anything... and 5.The whole economical system went through a great reformation in 1999 "Unionist Revolution".

All this is explained in my factbook. Considering these 5 points and comparing them to the actual economy of Yugoslavia before the collapse and nowadays economies of the splinter-republics (keeping in mind the 5 points) I'd say that 17,500 USD's GDP/Capita is quite realistic.
