OOC: Lol. I thought "since I have so many colonies, why not make a commonwealth" so tadah.
Lynion

OOC: I do everything quietly. For example: The Vamperial Kingdom Alliance is made up of four nations jointly together because we're sub-Humans. You don't need to go telling the world at times. Sometimes the world needs to come to you to ask you questions.

OOC:

I'm a pretty active colonialist here on NS, so I congratulate you on makinig some colonies.

However, getting commonwealth states (Like Questers), Freely associated states (Like Alfegos and Uiri), protectorates(Like Scand), or foriegn provinces(Like Stevid), is something that works best when you're larger than a good deal of other nations, as you will become in time.

In the meanwhile, would you be interested in forming a joint colony?

OOC: A little bit of advice for you, young one. Those nations that stuck up for you in the CM conflict might not be as reliable as you think - sure everyone was happy to go after an incoherent or angry n00b, but what if you end up fighting LION or someone far larger and deadly? I doubt you'll find as many friends.

If anything, you want to be applying for protection rather than offering it.

*Begins evil plotting.*

Yet, really it is wise to consider submitting to yourself to an alliance lead by another, far large nation, as right now there are countries whose militaries surpass your entire population.

Strictly, yes. My brother wants to play NS so he may be using the Northwestern Drakovia account. For the others, I'm making flags for them so it will take a while before I make the accounts.

Right. I thought it was ood that only one of the listed nations exists. I would point out that lots of people have said

Check out OSAFU, the link is in my signature. Its a pretty fair trade off, other than you have to allow my business to operate in your nation, but I don't have to allow your business to operate in my nation, I can establish bases in your nation (for defense) but not the other way around and I have to give you natural disaster relief but not the other way around.

Assosciating. Continuous tense Kirav, continuous tense. Yay mention.

Errr....

It is against the rules to RP a puppet which is essentially an extension of your nation because it is a cheater's way to enlarge one's population.

It is not against the rules to RP a puppet nation with no relations at all with your main nation. Generally, one does not make puppets for colonies.

I don't think it is against the rules as a rule on the forum, people do it all the time on the Sports RP threads.

Uiri: You mentioned it is why?

I established East Drakovia, as a colony of sorts but not really, the point being that there may be in the future they will gain independent control from the Empire, whether there is a rebel war first or not I am still deciding. It isn't an extension of my nation, nor am I intending it as a way to enlarge my population, it may be against the 'rules' but I would like to understand why as I am still finding my feet within the RPing world.

Ustio North if his brother does take over from Northwestern Drakovia, I am sure that we will see a difference in posting style from it, rather than people saying that's not me it's my brother/sister/next door neighbour etc.

I know, but it was just a bit of friendly advice to him if that's what he was thinking - i've seen the crap that people get for having puppets.

I personally only have one - as a backup if my account gets hacked.

TO: Kingdom of Royal British States
FROM: Vamperial Alliance Treay Organisation (VATO), High King Vamp

We congulate on your efforts to establish a treaty with other countries but it would also be wise to find protection in the mean time. I know it may sound like we're putting you down, but you need to know that sometimes, you need to hide behind an ally while you build up your forces. That's why we want to put forward an offer.

In case you haven't notice this is from the Vamperial Kingdom Alliance which means it can't be sent back to Lynion even though it may sound like Lynion itself. However, we wish to put forward an offer of being the first Human state to join the Vamperial Alliance Treaty Organisation (VATO). It was originally desgined for what you refer to as: 'sub-Humans'. So far its being kept quiet but we would like to add you to our ranks alongside: The Vamperial Kingdom of Lynion, The Imperial Fungi Alliance and Treay of Imperial Australia. If you accept we can send you a report about the treaty that we sign to keep our 'sub-Human' nations alive and out of the hands of corrupted Humans in the world.

Ah. I was thinking of the FAS's of my RL home nation.



Errr....

Listen to Uiri.

I do, however, maintain puppets for two of my colonies (Xirya and Kaviska), for demographics and shit, but I calculate my population-based stats from Kirav alone.


It is not against the rules to RP a puppet nation with no relations at all with your main nation. Generally, one does not make puppets for colonies.

Again, listen to Uiri. He's good at colonisation.

-snip-

That's where I got the idea in the first place. I think it sounds better -ing rather than -ed.

lol, I just know how to RP and what is fair and what isn't. Actually, I've mostly let up on my colonisation for the time being, too many to keep track of.

Well, as long as it doesn't make you anymore powerful than you already are 'tis ok.

Uiri: You mentioned it is why?

I established East Drakovia, as a colony of sorts but not really, the point being that there may be in the future they will gain independent control from the Empire, whether there is a rebel war first or not I am still deciding. It isn't an extension of my nation, nor am I intending it as a way to enlarge my population, it may be against the 'rules' but I would like to understand why as I am still finding my feet within the RPing world.

Look, with a larger population, people can have larger militaries. So if someone makes a whole bunch of puppets, claims them as colonies and then says, "I send a n00k @ joo!!!!!!!!!!111oneoneone" because they made 50 or so and they've grown for a week or two and so they have over 500 million people altogether, well they are just cheating. I guess as long as it doesn't effect the status of your nation, it is ok.
Questers
28-08-2008, 18:50
...lol wut. It's not against the rules to make puppets. Just expect to get ignored, that's all. The only rules that deal with multiple nations is that you can only have one nation in the UN.
Uiri
28-08-2008, 19:01
OOC: Ah, yes, specifically in the rules, it is actually allowed. I guess what I'm saying is like saying you can't have more than 5% of your nation in your military is a rule.

They're not NS rules, they're RP rules, and anyone can break RP rules, just like anyone can break NS rules, the consequences are different.

RBS: You don't need to make puppets for colonies. I never did and I never will do.

Yes ok I understand that in the way someone may cheat, when having a war RP, but mine is similar to the way Kirav has it and I think that is how RBS is going to use it as well, though I can't speak for him.

My puppet nation at least the one which has any connection with the Empire is only being used because as I say I am looking at doing an RP where they gain independence again, though I wouldn't be using it in the way that you described.

Actually my brother is on NS as Adaptus Astrates and one look at that nation's posts on the forum's shows the difference in writing styles. You can always tell puppet nations are puppets due to writing styles on the forums.
