The text, Ross, is tiny because it's a quote train. I do personally think that 2 million drones a year is absurdly high, but meh. Also, Dusty, for the third time, WHAT IS A TERRAVENGER?

Those drones can't be very powerful if you can build so many and it hasn't bankrupted your nation, surely.. I don't use tanks, only have a small navy, and only a small airforce, so almost all of my factories produce these guys. I also collect all materials and power myself, so the drones themselves are relatively cheap. Harvester ships are coming along nicely. Then where do you build your spaceships? Or your spacestation? Those things cost a lot! hmmm 2 more years till my spaceship is done

Those drones can't be very powerful if you can build so many and it hasn't bankrupted your nation, surely.. Never mind. Even costing 6k each, it'd only be 10b a year. Even for 60k each, 100b is still only just over a third of your budget iirc.

[hide=] It would be awesome if we renamed the NWO Eastasia. 40b surplus has been carried over into the Japanese budget for 2050. [i think we're in 2050 now?] Nor I think does he have the money to do what he wants to anyway.. Aside from the fact that I'm funding the project as well, what does his monetary status have to do with anything? Just because he doesn't have the funds to zerg-develop the thing, that doesn't mean that everyone somehow manages to get the plans to it. I'm pretty sure Lux was researching it for like 10 years. Oh you are? I thought we'd agreed to play somewhat realistically to our national budget. - wait, I think you mean the program not Malaysia's one.. I'm confused now though, heh. Also yes, I agree on the teching thingy. What exactly is it? I think I missed Lux's opening post about it.. [/hide] Where on earth did I say I was starting production on the TerraVenger? And please;

^ No it will not [yt]4fD0rCh-Tz8[/yt]

What style of government will the new nation have? Socialist? Democratic? I propose that we build the capital in Sweden, but I'm not sure what to name it. We need ideas, folks! Name the capital something from Greek mythology. And I'm a nasty little socialist. Do you see how that's a Russian propaganda song? Yeah? Just no. If we go with socialism; [yt]PqbQ_I_-HuQ[/yt] tbh

No, Sere, just no. I suggest this; [yt]9-cKfOUJoN8[/yt] Or even [yt]y06P8KpzsVA[/yt]

I don't think you intend to go for world domination Dusty, but NWO is cool. I'm happy for our NWO plan. Can I have Latvia as my sector? :) I vote for Gaia. Utopia is so cliché, I mean Gaia is a bit, but Utopia. Maybe we should call it Distopia instead. Hurrr.

#-o I know I lost the war, Findenland is in ruins, not a single civilian is alive because everyone freaking nuked it. Look at a map and see how close the UK is too Findenland. Now imagine me releasing tons of the Virus I've been cultivating for 20 years into the water. Now imagine a bunch of the viruses making their way into your country. I think it's safe to say my virus is spreading across the world, and there is little you guys can do about it. You killed all of my citizens that were immune to it, so you can't really study it now. You guys will just have to randomly test a million substances to see what would cure the virus. If we really did get infected (I'm sure people will ignore that anyway.), we could just take the DNA of the virus and find a cure. Besides, I'm sure some scientists from Findenland would not have agreed with you and would have allowed us to make some vaccines from their DNA in the name of peace and serenity. This. I'm okay with the original split; it's land we never expected to get so it really doesn't matter all that much to me. I'd be happy if Sere converted Sweden to a NWO state, but if you want to keep it that's also fine by me. Hedgehog, just stfu. The entire world working together against you would stop any spread of any stupid virus you have.

Please raise your hand if you're tired of Hedgehog's crap and will agree to ignore all his posts from now on? /raisehand Also, amazingly, 20 Finnish citizens have agreed for Japanese scientists to test their DNA to find the cure to the virus. As is the norm for events concerning Findenland, we found the vaccine in 4 minutes!

Doom, he won't stop unless we act now. I have already sent some Rods From God hurtling into Ivalo. I think my fake war played up the importance of Ivalo. It's just the closest large city to Findenland's northern border. Also, that's kind of an overreaction. His people aren't morons too. EDIT: Please raise your hand if you're tired of Hedgehog's crap and will agree to ignore all his posts from now on? /raisehand

Sell me some medgel :thumbup: Also, Hedgehog, you realise you just declared war on the entire world by releasing that virus, yeah? It's okay though Dusty, he's got 1 milliontroops in every major city in the world. [This is epic.] What is Medgel used for? I assume it's a metal of some sort? The Japanese navy is going to be anchored in the Barents sea until I get clarification that it's okay for my troops to rumble through 50 miles of Russia or Norway into Finland, I guess.

You know he won't do that. Yeah, imagine losing face on the internet! Oh the horrors of anonymity! All the same :( 2 minutes RL reaction time, that's what, half an hour RL time? at most? You won't even have got your planes off the ground. Dusty is a winner!

Why are people such [wagon] as to even deal these threats? Doom, you moan all about being realistic and then you don't give a crap when someone says "we'll bring down our satellites blowing up our land if things go bad!!one11" It's a stupid threat and you would lose all support from EVERYONE in the real world. There's no way your people would move your nuclear waste Hedgehog, they'd revolt. @Rocco, not without asking for money.. :P

Can I help kill Hedgehog too? I want me some pies. sigh Nobody here argued with Dusty taking Bangladesh. The treaty said he couldn't conquer anymore land. I think this means he can destroy you, but he can't keep the land for himself?

Okay, so if I say my spaceship has room for 12,000 people, can I send 8000 to my Mars Colony as well as more machines to improve their life? How long does it take for it to make a trip to Mars & back? Dusty, why can't I come? :( Ender Saga is a similar situation to AI vs Humans. Basically, the human race is commanding it's space fleet against the Buggers' fleet. Their fleet is controlled by their queen - one mass, hive mind i.e. makes no error, however the Human fleet is full of individuals who can all make their own decisions, have their own ideas etc. If you've basically taken a human's intelligence and put it into an AI then I tip my hat to you and say good show good sir, you've taken balance and twisted it inside out. ...What's Hedgehog getting?..

Ever read the Ender Saga? Yeah. Also, Dusty, you never said how "public" Midgard was?

Yeah, Gisele D is a planet around 18 light-years from Earth that's within the habitable zone. I sent a ship there a while ago, and then 2 ship shortly after, and then a fourth shortly after that. So I should soon have around 200,000 people on the planet. Is this planet publically available for colonisation or do you have a monopoly on it? Also FFFFFFFFFFF, need my spaceship. It's going to cost 1 trillion in total, and will be done in 3 more years. Dusty, you seem to have done a lot of stuff in space, what kind of ship is that going to get me? (This leaves me with 40 billion spare each year to carry on, I believe)

And what does the Elysium space station do? That's what I don't understand, really. Also, Gisele D, dusty, is this another planet that you've found? Sri Lanka's GDP: 3% for 3 years [Recession!], 6% for 5 years, 3.4% for 4 years, 3% for 6 years, 2.6% for 10 years, -1% for 2 years, 1.8% for 8 years. 268 billion. 20% of that is 53 billion 20% of that is 10 billion. Gabon: 3% growth for 8 years, 2% growth for 10 years, -1% growth for 3 years, 4% growth for 7 years, 2.6% growth for 10 years 53 billion 15% of that is 8 billion 20% of that is 1.6 billion Mauritius: 2% growth for 10 years, 1.5% growth for 8 years, 3% growth for 10 years, 2.4% growth for 10 years 35 billion 20% of that is 7 billion 20% of that is 1.4 billion Maldives: -3% for 6 years, -1% for 2 years, 2% for 10 years, 3% for 6 years, 1.8% for 15 years 1.268 billion 15% of that is 190 million 20% of that is 38 million As far as I can tell, any economy in Andaman and Nicobar is extremely small. Perhaps with your rule the GDP will climb to 10 million in a years time, but all of this should be reinvested back into the islands until they are at least 100 million GDP. Ergo; your budget is 13.038 billion. Plus the money I pay you from India's taxes in exchange for your help in India. @Sere, hurrr @Doom on navies; I thought cruisers were anti-air ships. In that case, consider my 4 cruisers to be 4 frigates with anti-air capabilities.

I calculated my GDP. I got 1.1 trillion. Someone can check that for me. The shrimp drug is very successful, so that adds a few billion a year. And its not like I'll be spending all that money at once. 20% of 1.1 trillion is 220b 20% of that is 44b hmmm

Japan's military budget of 125b is to spent as followers - all technology not researched by Japan acquired via the NWO. 12 stealth reconnaissance aircraft, 30b 6.24 million XTF_4000's, 5b 28080 Exobreaker X-4 suits, 3.4b 4 aircraft carriers, 20b 40,000 Lancelots (they were priced at 200k, I think?) 8b 16 naval transports 2b 4 Antagonist Class light cruisers, 1b 4 Shock Class frigates, 1b Training of 150,000 new troops per year [Current army size is 5 million] - 20b (is this reasonable to say that they're highly trained? That's 13k per troop, seems high enough) Building of 100 fighter jets & R+D on them each year to keep up to a reasonable level of tech, 25b This gives a 9.6b surplus to cover extra costs each year. Leaves 225b left for other non-military projects from Japan's national budget. K? ^_^ @Hedgehog - where on earth are you getting that money from

Those subs are fine.

Ross, can you explain all your space projects to me please? In PM if you'd prefer.
