Retech

I have a busy week ahead of me, so I might not be on often until Saturday. I'll check in once in a while, and maybe come on for a session of Dungeoneering if I happen to have a timeslot open, but I won't be able to work stuff out on Hegemony until then. So if you're planning to surprise attack me, please wait until Saturday. If you need to contact me, please PM.

Jen hurredly puts the life crystal back into Wubbles before trying to find a way out of the cave.

Jen attempts to heal her leg, while firing a massive freezing ray at the pair, hoping to catch them both as they run away. She wonders how the flail man is running when he was frozen solid earlier. She also fires the auto-ice shards.

Jen attempts to heal her back, while swinging her polemace in a roundhouse blow against the swordsman, spinning around in the process. If she succeeds, then she quickly smashes him over the head if he's pretty injured. She fires freezing blasts at both people. She is careful to quickly turn, so that she is prepared for the flail person.

It would've killed over 3 million civilians, but the reason that I was planning on doing that in the first place was because of your killing of civilians. Normally, I try to avoid cities as much as possible.

Jen attempts to freeze the swordsmen's legs and entire arm using a freezing ray using her polemace. If she succeeds, she bashes the swordsman over the head, hoping to kill him.

So your alternative proposal is that everyone has ICBMs and civilians become a target? That's sorta true in a way, but people would probaly attack military targets, since attacking civilian targets would result in other nations teaming up on them.

^ I wasn't arguing about 30%. Japan proposes that instead of sanctions, ICBMs should be banned, at penalty of sanction.

Well of course literally building the cities will take a long time. It doesn't mean that people can't find other jobs elsewhere, or the many jobs within the system which are part-time. Honda-Toyota has its headquarters several hundred miles inside a mountain. You wouldn't be able to blow it up.

A large percentage of Japanese jobs, but not of the entire Republic. Probaly at most, 6% of jobs are located in Tokyo and the other places you were referring to. Also keep in mind that lots of those people were incinerated. Anyways, generally when GDP dips, it surges much faster until it reaches previous levels.

Done. I hope that in the future, if you have a score to settle with me, then you'll have a large enough military to do it. ^ Does the deal mean that those Italian troops withdraw from Indonesia? --------- I think Japan is much stronger than you think, industrially. Things can be rebuilt, and 30% of GDP being wiped out is 8 years worth of growth? Besides, generally when things go kablooey, things go back up faster.

Jen fires ice shards at the same time while swinging her polemace. The goal is to basically make it so that the swordsman cannot dodge the polemace without going into the path of the ice shards. Jen fires an ice beam at the Swordsman, which if it misses, will hopefully hit the flailman.

^ That is definitely the mark of a true world leader. I think he might be the antichrist. Japanese volunteers from around the country begin work to rebuild Tokyo. The plan is to have all the streets aligned with the sun, to make the light shine through when the sun is up. The vision is to make the grandest city on Earth, from the ashes of the old. Japan asks other nations to help craft a peace settlement. Civilians are hiding in the bunkers constructed for the event of such an event, and the military has pledged that it will fight as long as it has to, until either the enemy is defeated or peace is finally restored.

Of course not. That was just a crazy example. Anyways, I think I'm going out of my way here, considering I'm basically forgiving the worst single attack on civilians in history, unless you count the Holocaust. Point is, the world might tolerate you bombing once, but twice? You did what you said you had to do, so I'm sure that is quite enough.

Jen swings at the swordsman again, firing more ice shards. Then hopefully when the swordsman is dodging away, Jen fires a freezing ray at him.

Well, think about this. War would result in total destruction of all involved nations, guarenteed. You can't intercept my attacks, I can't intercept yours. Obviously none of us want this, so if we agree to peace, it'll be like MAD. Both sides can retaliate if the other declares war. If I backstab you, then you nuke me. If you backstab me, I blow up your country. Simple, no? Not to mention your populace must be getting a bit grumbly from this war here, especially since Japan never did anything to Turkey.

Japan proposes this treaty: -Cessetion of hostilities/troops return to where they came from -Turkish King apoligizes to the families of the civilians killed for their...well, killings. This doesn't mean he apoligizes to Japan, or apoligizes for the war, but apoligizes for the lives lost in the attack. Basically it's at a stage that you did kill 3 million civilians, and you should at least apoligize to their families.

Jen tries to heal, while firing auto-ice shards out of her polemace while swinging her polemace horizontally across her body.

Superpower status doesn't matter in the world of ICBMs. I will fight one on one when you stop their use on civilian targets. US is big. Japan is small. Big difference.

Errrr...no. Japan requests the assistance of other nations in negotiating a fair peace treaty, accounting for the attack that Japan was surprise attacked by ICBMs. Otherwise, Japan asks for other nations to help in its fight against the enemy. Archi said you'd need a multi billion project to make a 99% effective missle shield. Soooooo there was a multi billion dollar project.

Oh, that was negotiable. I was just giving a crazy example for effect. What are your terms for a peace treaty then? A possible idea would be: -Hostilities cease immediately between Turkey and her allies and the Empire of Japan -Turkey does not intervene in any Japanese affairs -Australia returns Guinea or -Hostilities cease -Turkey does not intervene in Japanese affairs -Australia gives Japan the exosuit technology that it has so far -Payments are made for the sunken ships (16 billion total, for the two super carriers) -An apology is made to the families of those killed in the destruction of Tokyo ---- Btw Archi, the anti-missle project was a 200 billion dollar project. Just so ya know...

Which thing do you have a problem with? The not losing Indonesia thing or the reperations thing.

Jen fires an ice ray at both the flail man and the swordsman with her polemace. Hopefully, this will make the swordsman vulnerable. She attempts to smash the swordsman in the side this time, and if she is given a bit of time, she attempt to heal her leg.

Errr, about this peace treaty. Does this mean that I don't get Indonesia back? I refuse to lose any territory. You also bombed and killed 3 million people. I can't just let that off the hook. If you let me have one round of equal counter offensives, then that would be fair. Basically I bomb Istanbul. If not, then I'm going ahead with my first plan. Oh yah, and Japan accepts that Madagascar thingy.

You know, I was actually prepared for that attack, though I thought my anti-missle defences could handle it. Also Archi, where did my numerous fleets that were guarding Indonesia head off to? To Turkey, I will kill all of your civilians. ----- Meanwhile, the 100 stratos Jets that were being built to replace the old fashioned and outdated stealth bombers (which I started in 2009, and it's already obsolete) have been completed. They will be used to raze Turkey to the ground. Oh yah, since Italy didn't do much destruction, after the recapture of Indonesia and Malaysia, then Japan offers a peace treaty. Likewise, Japan also offers one to Australia. It states that the business of war is fair, but a missle attack on civilians cannot be tolerated.
