A future war (FT RP idea/sign up)

Firehelper
28-10-2007, 01:52
Well since I have decided to use firehelper in the FT community I want it to enter some RPs. However, even though I am such an old nation I have relatively little RP experience FT or MT.
So to improve my FT RPing style I want to enter a war. I have not yet the ablitily to wage a large war due to the fact that I have relatively "little" advanced technologies.
To wage this war I am willing to "lose" to a person should they have a good standing the the FT community and have a fair treatment of subject nations. If no one like that should sign up I would like the war to be fairly small with neither side winning. If any player would like some more detailed information on my current capabilities please message me at aquahelper@hotmail.com (preferably) or on AIM aquahelper

I'll do it, RPing a different people then the ones I have now. My current people will fight you if they label you as "unethical" (i.e., imperilism, slaughter of innocents, slavery, ect.)

yes.... looking for the right people is harder than it looks....
sorry Xiscapia, It wouldn't be as effective since unless you become that more technologically advanced nation im going to have a hard time defending my self should I ever be attacked. (which is also the reason Im looking for a kinder conqueror) You would also be hard pressed to find a reason to attack me if the reason is based on "ethics." though if you want you can join the RP should I find a good person.

To any would be conquror: just think of this as the "education of a barbaric culture"

I.. got.. here.. before.. Chron! Yes!

The Realm is mildly expansionist, and, from what I've seen of your nation, any invasion would probably be considered intervention. Assuming you're not giant aliens with tubes for arms, we'd treat you fairly, although, of course, we'd probably take control over your foreign policy, and spend a bit of time updating your infrastructure.

We're not Chronosian Chaos-worshippers, and, considering the state of your nation (having read the Green Hawk/Red Shark thread), we'd see it more as a liberation than as a conquest, from my people's point of view, in any case.

Whaddaya say?

What does Green Hawk and Red Shark have to do with this?

You guys aren't big enough, basically.

I'd be up for it, god knows the Covenant are imperialistic as hell, despite the reforms they've had, but HT seems to have gotten here first. Want any help, HT? =P

Finding someone who would attack you, yet treat you fairly after conquering you, is tricky business. Any alternative I would RP would simply destroy or absorb your culture, which you obviously don't want. I'd say go with HTs offer, although you'd have a harder time defending yourself from him than me.

Having looked at your thread, you've got governments that are warring incessantly. People are dying, and whatnot. For my nation, it's an excellent cause of war, because the war's been going on so long, and moving in, removing the government in power, and stopping the war satisfied the citizens at home.

Firehelper isn't in the war, but if you don't know that and think they are in the cross fire that can be good enough reason for a "liberation," right? Am I close or something?

..feel.. so.. silly. So very, very silly. I mistook one of you for the other! Nast faux paus right there. Actually, I was reading over Green Hawk's thing, and got the two names mixed up. Forgivable. After all, they're both two words, and both contain the word 'Green', right?

Damn.

But sorry about that. I was getting a tad excited thinking about some glorious liberations. Sorry, y'all. Nevertheless, I'm obviously still interested.

lol... Firehelper... Green Hawk... Red Shark... Okay... :p

Hey, can I get in this Firehelper? Since we're not that far apart I could help out (I'll send a few ships to help you) or is this going to be closed? Either way I'm fine with it.

Aye, I'd like a piece of this RPG pie too, if possible.

I think I will take TFU as the attacker on the grounds that I have had experience with him before. If anyone else would like to help (but not have an outcome on the ending of the war) please say so here

I'll join with Green Hawk and a small fleet of ships, but with the war the fleet would leave sooner or later so I won't affect the outcome that much. Is that okay?

TFU! Respond to our set up thread please!
Sorry about stealing the thread for a moment there.
Anyway...
I'm still unsure of what part I could play. I think I'll just send a spy to scout out events and watch the fighting. Is that okay?

I would love to get in on the action Firehelper!

(think of my role as the nation that is trading with the compeating nations and is reaping a profit, my nation depends on trade anyway for survival) ;)
Belkaros

I would like to join as a potential conqueror. If that role is unavalable, I will defend instead.
Firehelper
06-11-2007, 22:40
yo both can join as defenders but be warned your ships cannot in anyway alter the eventualy defeat but they may help to delay (also, Belkaros, even if the conqueror position was op-en, which it is not, i would not let you join as a conquerer since you are several years younger than my nation)
Belkaros
08-11-2007, 04:29
I understand. I am not as new to nationstates as Belakros would suggest, though. Fonzuania is the oldes active nation I have, which I have had for more than a year. It is one of 5 nations I have had in the past, and the only one, other than Belkaros, that has not been deleted due to inactivity. I started Belkaros just to RP.

Defense sounds good though. I'm glad to get in on the action.

I'd like to contribute a single cruiser, which will observe, and may intervene either way.

Assuming, that is, you allow non-human races in this RP.
