That is because he is pming me... Me proxying is a stupid idea... First, I will get screamed at by Dusty Second, I will get screamed at by Dungeonal Third, I will get screamed at by everyone else Forth, there are other ways I could proxy...like just editing the map... Fifth, if I was going to start playing I will reinstate Switzerland, build a fortress and then spend my time thinking up harebrained schemes(and then proving that they could work) to give me an advantage...which would get me screamed at. So, in the interests of not getting screamed at, I have not taken over a country, proxyed, or otherwise involved myself in the gameplay. At worst I have suggested to people actions they could take, which are frequently ignored...like Sere annexing three countries...

No.... what makes you say that?

Argentina invades the Baltic States Cost: 22,500,000,000 Treasury: 889,472,800,000

It happens automatically, so he has to opt out.

K The salted mass of Pakistan is absorbed by India. Byzantina is also condemed by the UN.

Not really, they just counter attacked because your army looked like it had stalled...then it turned out to get lucky and beat your army. Anywho: Cost: 70,200,000,000 Treasury: 902,638,800,000 Infrastructure: 1.3

Not especially. It would be like the US army coming and kicking the USSR out....

You arn't invading an area the size of a school playground, you are invading a country and then randomly not going further into it. It would be like the USSR invading Rhode Island and then complaining that they didn't win despite it being a tiny area.

I am not sure why he is mad exactly. 'OMG didn't insta-win, clearly Archi killed my troops with a squeak toy.' Anywho, bombings occur....

Really? Well thats useful to know...No, rather that it costs a fairly large amount to maintain a nuclear arsnal, to build a nuclear arsnal, and that the game would be crap if nukes were free.

How many nukes, and how powerful?

:rolleyes: Your army.

Nowhereistan blows up the army. Cost: 9,000,000,000 Treasury: 972,838,800,000

Cost: 14,400,000,000 Treasury: 983,838,800,000

Cost: 9,000,000,000 Treasury: 573,287,932,900 Ps, not sure if Dusty is going ahead at all

South Africa has done what Europe did in the 19th century. "Hi, how would you like to be king of {Territory}?! "Sounds good." "All you have to do is turn up in a land, quickly access that it has no large cities and then proclaim your rulership" "Brilliant, when do I leave." However the Bahamas have sunk. On the plus side the Isle of Wight has appeared with a city on.

He asked... Anywho That would be fine, except that the Antifreeze Protien works at 1 or 2 degrees below zero, and the body would still shiver like crazy and the immune system would still be broken down over an extended period. All it does is remove the chance of frostbite at -1 Degrees celcius.... Probably do better with Xylomannan which works at -60 degrees, although currently research doesn't know how it works. God only knows. Pick a number between 500 million and 100 million.

On a mildly related note(probably accounting for the silliness) going to sleep for a while, not sure for how long, end of a 48 hour day(40 minutes ago :rolleyes: ) Hopefully will be back on form tommrow night, though, please note, with exams coming up, I may not be 100%. Anywho, just something that made me think 'The Tavern is more like the real world than other internet forums'

Cape Verde sinks as its boarders are destroyed by an errant pixal of South Africa Colour, and water floods in. South Africa is condemed by the UN and places sanctions against fishing for IAG where Cape Verde used to be. Remember annexation is damaging to infrastructure... Singapore and Brunei are absorbed into Malaysia, and due to some complicated economics, don't contribute or subtract anything from IAG. Cost: 18,000,000,000 Treasury: 82,427,200,000 Cost: 52,000,000,000 Treasury: 518,377,000,000 Cost: 54,000,000,000 Treasury: 341,759,700,000 Some more Islands sink. Once I have the Sudetenland, err, I mean, Somalia, I have no more asperations in Europe-Czech Republic-France, errr, Africa! Thats the ticket. Otherly a new poster is being displayed in Alaska, for the Lulz: Argentina carries out training exercises for the year, investing 105 billion in training to increase defencive fighting efficency, reducing the cost of defensive deployment to 29,000 per person.

Hmmm, so you are reintroducing naked warriors. I think history proved...pretty much since the Battle of Alesia onwards...that naked combat doesn't work. Otherly, you could just inject them with Stamulumab...It inhibts the thing that inhibits muscle growth....Would probably be about 1000 times more effective than Strength 1... Also you could use ice-cubes, or just cold water circulated inside a dry suit...Probably a lot cheaper than these 'Cold Pills'... I will just point out, though, that Cold breaks down the immune system....So in the intrests of balancing people taking 'Cold Pills' will pretty much be insta killed by the flu, and the like. Combination of minor surgery, with a high risk of infection, and the cold pills, will mean that the 1 in 10,000 who survive will definately be elite...Either that or they will be insanely lucky, which is equally as good for a solider :rolleyes: Anything else I can think of? Cold pills make it more difficult to function in regular(Between the Tropics and the Poles)) combat environements, and impossible in warm(Between the Tropics and the Equator) environements, and any and all bio weapons, even a man with a runny nose, could kill everyone Strength Pills/Drink/Whatever it is that isn't Stamulumab, cause sterility, and mass aggression. The implant procedure carries a risk of permenant damage to the optic nerve, and will halve the useful life of the eye, eventually make the person short sighted in the extreme. Oh, and deployment cost is around 2,000,000, since it has so many downsides that people will essentially be paid to give up their lives for 10 years(You still have to pay year for deployment) and then retire before the damage is too server....as well as the cost of the drugs, counciling and other general stuff like that.

As for being more detailed...we never used all that detail, and we certainly wouldn't start. The only possible benefit would be an amphibious assault on South America via Antactica....Or a Pacific Island that supports a garrison of a million...something like that.

Nah, switching maps would be too complicated now, and I never liked the V1 map, it was full of stupid lines and had far too many islands to be useful. The current map just does what is does. PS. Writing essays. 16 hours to write 1000 words and hand it in!

Hmmm...Interesting. I use the massive lens to set fire to Rocco, or at least to blind him. I carry on charging otherwise though.

Fixed

Their ability to slow down and speed up helps so much in tactical combat though...you just fill out your ships with rail guns and watch other people's ships spin off at angles. Although, the Morrigi are good with their drone combat.
