Its up.

Just as a side note, Britian is going to have to pull itself out of the economic downturn, it can't be aided or otherwise helped...since it's infrastructure problems are systemic.

Ok then. Time to wrap this up for Britian then. With the arrest of Sarah Palin, and the escape of Sarah Palin to Byzantia, and the escape of Sarah Palin to France, a secret becomes blatently obvouis...There is more than one Sarah Palin. With this bomb shell the American people turn their back on her, and begin to settle down within the British Zones, having been betrayed by their own politians. However, Britian, on the other hand, has totally freaked out. The complete injustice of it all has lead to a mass protest in London, Cardiff and a random Scottish city since I can't spell either of the ones I know...Inverness will do. The resulting protests have deposed the government and lead to months, potentially years, of confusion and conflict as riots over civil rights grips the nation....The over all effect has been to halve infrastructure and IAG. Finally, a new American Political Party has formed, the 'Anti-Federalists' which have also been called the 'Commonwealth' party. They have a growing following, and seem to advocating living within the British Commonwealth System, with power being devolved to them in the future. With America mostly pacified, Canada has calmed down. Florida has always remained calm. With these major problems resolved it now comes to dividing up the rest of the continent, since the various states no longer have much will to fight.

Palin has announced her disgust at this latest initive(Is she going to be arrested now?)

Can't blame a mod for trying :grin:

So it was 900 billion you lost.... Yeah alright, thanks for correcting Dusty

Cause they are screwing up and you are part of the Concert of Europe, to be fair it should probably be halved for you....but since you only had 2 cities it didn't really seem worth it. Byzantine: Treasury: 1,008,238,800,000 -10 billion 98,238,800,000

The budget is reset to whatever the new IAG is.

After, I think. It was never decided on, so it will just be whatever I think at the time.

All of the American states have an IAG of 200 billion.

Same Boat. The system was designed(by you lot, not me) to make it impossible to recover within the decade.

Aid missions and spending on infrastructure effects the next decade, not this decade. You would still lose the .125 of your budget.

Certaintly. However they changed the game dynamic with each of the mods. The Born of Blood Mod, was probably my favoured choice, but A Murder of Crows is the most interesting. There are no slumpings, although the disturbances to the power grids are aggravating people. Also, you notice that there is a medical entourage nearby already, in each case.

It doesn't annexing peacefully bypasses the whole process. So unless someone Conqueres Alaska and sticks two fingers up to you...you should be fine. Five actually. Anywho, not much happens, Palin makes a couple of speeches about her commitment to American Freedom, ect, ect

Retech wanted to contest it, which is his right, either concessions are made, or you convince Retech to stop contesting the situation...Or you go on a genocidal killing spree and make the area is cleansed of anyone who might make trouble. It should be fairly simple what I am saying. The Free Press in the Country You have Invaded is Saying that the Plebiscite you Held had a Turnout of Less than 5%. Therefore Implying that it is about as Representive as Asking the King if America should be a Monarchy. Naturally the Occupying Media have denied this.

With the American occupation continuing Britian has been charged 100 billion for the 20 cities it is occupying. France is charged 20 billion for the cities it is occupying. Byzantia 10 billion. British Treasury: 608,922,812,500 French Treasury: 2,725,903,357,532 Byzantian Treasury: 98,238,800,000 Turn out of the plebisicte is unpublished...though Palin Media services indicate that it is around 5% of the population. British Media services have denied this.

Even if we don't decide to add them, it will be a good to have a list.

Thinking about adding 5 new military wonders and was wondering if people had any preferances. Star Fleet Academy is my submission, and would provide an extra year of research ever 10 years, as well as improving military training-reducing operating costs. If anyone has any suggestions for names and functions then please post them. (If you don't want wonders then please post that too) I am going to be offline for a long while, its been a long day.

Yup...and if I wanted to access this information I would do it....how? Spend an hour or so trawelling... Probably. Though that is fairly common as well, and probably wouldn't be reached for years(RL time)

You don't...and I am not offering to. I merely want to show people how advanced they are relative to other people. Since Grim and Ico seem to be in competition over the thrusters, without any idea who is actually better...

Its OP.... Like Mather's 'Everything is made out of photons and I can destablise the universe and beam it across the universe.' Its not building on old tech or being creative, its just pulling something...to use a polite term...out of the stargate.

I don't think 'Invention' of a new tech was ever allowed....After all, if someone announced 'Dust Cloud that Kills Instantly' Tech, people would have a problem.

One would assume there were ways round that... Yeah, if you want to pm me with any relevant details I will send the new 'stats'

Well the Crysis suit could be reversed engineered...But it seems pretty unlikely that, if it is a good as you say, it would remain intact beyond the death of the wearer.

Ok, tiny rule update. Reverse Engineering...It takes 5 years, will never be 100% successful in stealing technology, and has a 66% chance of failure(destroying the thing you are trying to reverse engineer). The chance of failure will be increased by research into anti-reverse engineering technology, which the race/country you are stealing from has developed. You can steal whole ships or individual components. If you steal a whole ship then you get all the tech on the ship, but you are only able to reproduce it...you can't improve it or modify it. Researching the individual component furthers your understand in the field, and allows you to improve or modify the design based on your tech. Simply put... If a ship has Laser 21B, and your reverse engineer the ship, then you gain Laser 21B and whatever else is onboard the ship. If a ship has Laser 21B, and your reverse engineer Laser 21B, then you gain Laser 21B, along with research into lasers, and the ability to modify the lasers to make use of your technology as well... So you could turn Laser 21B into Pulsed Laser Cannon 21C(Or whatever you creatively call your weapons), if you have technology to do it. If we adopted my proposed system this might mean that... France steals America's Laser Cannon 50C and reverse engineers it. Succeeding. France would then gain some points in Laser Cannon research, which it could then use to develop its own Laser Cannons. France may be totally rubbish at lasers, but might be an expert on turrets, and so by stealing those points France would build Laser Turrets which were more powerful than turrets alone. It probably sounds a little confused, but thats only because of the openness of it, you can do anything or nothing with the technology. It is your choice, I just provide a system to keep things fair.
