Nero

Perhaps Romania? There was a thread about that on a different forum I use, which is full of history buffs. I think I saw Romania come up a few times. (and I believe Sweden if you don't want to count Napoleonic France) I'm kind of surprised at the lack of major natural disasters. Though with the knowledge we ended up gaining from Somalia's brilliant meteorologists, I suppose we were able to predict them all and avoid them perfectly. I had thought up a system where we take the number of countries, a roll that on a random number generator (meaning 18 countries would get a roll between 1-18, and then whatever number that landed, the country that has that number would get a natural disaster that is most likely in the region (typhoons in Asia, earth quakes in mainland areas, etc). This would be rolled once a week (irl time). Never proposed it though, since I figured most people would argue about land ratios and probability of natural disasters in certain areas, etc.

Than maybe I'll just keep it for myself :twisted: It was never claimed by South Africa (and it is an independant irl) so all this time it really has been up for grabs. Land is land. I still want it. A lot of my old civilians also had HIV, so adding another generation of it won't take long to fix. Besides, I clone all my people these days. The popluation will die off eventually, and then it will be as perfect as the rest of Luxembourg :D Which I'm considering renaming something more appropriate, since I no longer have Luxembourg :-k New Luxembourg.

We used to shoot rioters. Now we are a democracy so nobody really bothers.

More than once for a few of those ;) I'm really enjoying the inside jokes on this thread :lol: I never actually attacked you once in the last war that happened. :-k But yes, we have our own meme. Born from the twisted insane mind of a dictator, and brought to fruition by the cold calm rational mind of the free world. Hm.

HOW DARE YOU FORGET ME! JUST FOR THIS, I SECRETLY REVEAL 200,000 TROOPS IN BERLIN it never gets old I SECRETLY PUBLICLY KILL BORAT Sorry for skipping over you, though there was that little disclaimer:

Yeah, Stone, I'd say watch out for that pesky Europa. It has a tendency to go to war a lot. Hm. These are the countries I've been at war with at some point: Slovakia, Slovenia, Croatia, Yugoslavia (Bosnia), Hungary, Albania, Denmark, France, Luxembourg, Belarus, Latvia, Lithuania, Estonia, Serbia, Former Yugoslavian Republic of Macedonia, Georgia, Turkey, Poland, Romania, Iceland, Ukraine, Spain, Italy, Findenland (Finland, Sweden, Belarus, Latvia, Estonia, Lithuania), Somalia, Jerusalem, Australia, Malaysia, Japan, Kenya, Ethiopia, Aether, Holland, Belgium. I think that's all of them. May have missed a few. Though atm I'm pulling a Brazil and being very isolationist.

What are they working on? And who are my allies, if any. Is there war going on between any two or more nations at this time? If this is about the year 2060, then what technologies are worldwide known? Also, how is war wagged, as in deciding who loses and all. I am this year working on my peoples youth, working on universal college or tradeschool for all. In several years, my people will be harder working and smarter, resulting in a slightly higher GDP, less crime, and encouraging tourism. The military is working on increased enrollment. Am I doing anything wrong? sounds good. would you like to join the NWO? There are basicly 2 major alliances, the NWO (almost all of asia) and Eurasia, which is Russia, Europa and Britannia (altho hes also in the NWO somehow). brazil and australia are mostly independant. Eurasian Alliance is Europa, Russia, Britannia, Bulgaria, and Australia.

Nothing really, just maintaining the country. Projects have to be posted in the thread when they start, so people can't just pull tech out of thin air. None atm, until you make some. It's generally accepted that new players get a sort of a grace period, where no one attacks them, so you're fine. Not atm. Space travel, some random bio enhancements, better education, and a [cabbage] ton of military tech Number of factors, Ross would be better to explain. All's good.

Well then, costs for everyone should be next to nothing. I gather all the metal and whatnot for my Scorpion artillery tanks, so does that mean they only cost $50,000? They don't have AI in them, so all I need to pay for is the assembly, neh? And Doom, an asteroid miner. Hopefully I can find an asteroid that has the stuff I need it in *whistles to self*. Nope, nothing suspicious going on here guys.

Gathering the supplies yourself doesn't really cut down costs all that much, though.

You've only built battleships, though. Unless they are Battlemining ships :? Anyways, Doom, can you build me a mining ship?

Exactly how much do these things cost? If they have railguns and can run at 68 miles per hour they are not gonna be cheap. Apparently 60k each :roll: Since Europa has compulsory 18 month military service, its active military has been toned down to 15 million. In the event of a war, though, around 60 million trained soldiers can be called up, and millions more that could fight.

Sure thing.

[hide=updated map][/hide] Changes: Fixed some border issues in Africa (bright pixels) Added Kenya & Somalia Didn't include to Sweden-Finland trade, as it's not official yet.

What country are you?

Got another one. [yt]GnpXB6O6RDY[/yt]

South Africa was destroyed in the game. It's a wasteland. Europa has begun slow construction on another space shipyard, should be done in 6 years. Also, Doom, can I buy one of those mining ships off you?

R&D on Europa's new gun is coming along nicely, should be 6 years to completion. Improvements have started to be made to the agent that increases strength, give that 4 years. Another ship has made it to Midgard, bringing the population to around 260,000. Big population boom going on there, obviously. And fine, Europa has started research on E2S missiles.

[hide=Map of Midgard (yes I did it)][/hide]

I have: A spray that is put on crops to increase yield by 300% - hunger not a problem A drug that allows colonization of extremely cold areas - Antarctica/Canadian Arctic And developed a plant that can grow in tundra envrionments that provides 90% of the daily nutrients to human beings I don't think anyone else has done anything else though. Oh, and the drug that allows for toxic environment survival is done, been distributed to HAZMAT/civlian groups that deal with lethal toxins.

:-k

[hide=Old map incase anyone wants to add the new countries in][/hide] And no, I don't have Earth->Space missiles, but neither does anyone else. At least I've never seen mention of anyone actually researching it. Though I think Europa has the best defenses in the game (both land and space based). And Australia has joined the Eurasian Alliance.

Mostly Greek/Roman but I am Norway in this game so I went with Norse ;) . My colony on Mars is called Thorland, then I have Bifrost and Asgard stations. I'll eventually make it through all 8 worlds in Norse mythology and then work on other words. You might have to skip over Midgard, to avoid confusion. Midgard is what was formerly Gisele D.

Alright, I'll but the plans for the Dyson shard. Construction has started on a pair of them.

What exactly are dyson shards?
