The ship will be heading towards a planet around 20 light years away, traveling at near-light speed. It should take around 22 years to reach there, while the colonists spend most of their time in cryogenic sleep. Since the haitability of planets orbiting Alpha Centauri is disputable, we won't be heading there. Germania would like to start a project on Haven that would have every possible team researching it together (meaning your whole team on Haven would be put towards it). The finished research for this project would only be open to those who put teams towards researching it. We propose a dedicated effort to finding out a way of traveling faster than light. 12 years should probably be a reasonable time. Germania has already put around $1 trillion towards this project.

Joined. I'm Kapt Torbjorn btw.

Germania's spaceship has been completed, and colonists shuttled to the ship. It is now underway to the planet that German astronomers discovered a couple years back. They should reach it in around 7 years. The other smaller ship we have been building is almost complete, and should be ready for travel in a few months.

You don't have any cities anymore.

And here you were complaining about me wasting wishes.

I'm a bit disappointed there is no "None because Pokemon sucks" option in this poll.

Isn't that a bit redundant? Not being able to be hurt isnt the same as not being able to die. But if you were invulnerable wouldn't that mean you couldn't get killed? If you were invulnerable you couldn't be killed by a bullet, or any sort of external force. You could however die from something as silly as a fever. If you're immortal, then you have no worry of sickness, old age, or any other internal (natural) factor that would kill a normal human being. Sort of like how the elves in LOTR are immortal, but if you stick a knife if their heart, they die. It's still a waste of wishes. You could make one wish to be death-proof. *shrug* They're my wishes after all ;)

yeah i knew ur changed name, i just forgot to change in my sig because i hardly ever actually look @ it lolv somalia got destroyed while i was at school, i wasnt around for the fun Yea it got [wagon] raped by two super powers

War is over, Somalia has been destroyed. Oh and Walka, can you change your signature from The Fourth Reich to Germania. Name change :P

I need a big military to hold onto all my precioussss...land. 500,000 more volunteers from outer Germania are going through their training process. You should be more concerned with Russia. Oh, and yeah, I never fight fair :P

Having witnessed the destructive power of Germania's army, Djibouti has offered to join Germania, to spare its citizens any possible harm that might come should Germania decide to take the small country just off of Ethiopia. Diplomats have also been sent to Chad and Sudan, with several agents being sent to militant groups in Sudan with bribes should the Sudanese government not be amiable to the idea of joining Germania. [hide=updated map][/hide]

It's always been saved as a PNG, or else filling colours in would be ridiculously long. Germania is working on rebuilding Ethiopia, and has started building a naval base on Corsica. [hide=updated map][/hide] I think the age of imperialist expansionism is coming to an end soon.

Yea, there's no way a country like Somalia could even hope to stand up against what me and Doom can throw against it. So lets talk about division Doom. I get Corsica and Ethiopia, and you get Kenya and Somalia, kay?

Muslim nations had a heavier emphasis on cavalry, so curved swords were better for cutting down infantry, since the force of the blow would be dissipated and the sword wouldn't fly out of the cavalry soldier's hand. Western countries were heavily infantry based, so the straight swords were designed for piercing moreso than slashing. Since Muslim countries were in the desert, their troops couldn't wear such heavy armour, and most unprofessional soldiers had little more than a shield and some cloth clothing, so slashing weapons were devastating.

Why the hell do people feel the need to own a gun if they don't even know how to use it?

Says the guy with the mudkips signature...

No. How are you going to get to Corsica anyways? You have to move military either through the Sea of Marmara (Russian controlled), or off the Mediterranean (which you have no land bordering on). Corsica is mine. Germania shall be the Lord of the Mediterranean! Muwahaha. Take some countries in Africa. They're amiable to western prosperity. No one has any spaceships designed specifically for combat. The closest ones are either mine (that are sort of like Battlestar Galactica), or Doom's retrofitted large transport ones that have ARC cannons on them (I think?). Anyways, since I'm in the process of building my first one, you'll have to talk to Brazil. Other news: Germania has started building a smaller space-craft for transport only. Since much of the design is simply ported off of Germania's original spacecraft design (minus the weapons and whatnot) it should be completed within a year for a reasonable cost. It isn't capable of long travels through space, though, and is only aimed at grabbing some sweet juicy Martian land. It can carry roughly 2500 people - 200 mandatory personnel to keep it running, and 2300 extra. Moon went boom. I don't really feel like saying where the planet might be, since you have a mystery planet with colonists out there.

Hey, at least I'm not the aggressor in this one :lol: Maybe I'm reforming my ways? Doubt it though. Anyways, my astronomers have found a small planet around 12 light years away that could potentially be a habitable planet, though gravity will be pretty low since its so small.

Oh yeah! My navy in the Mediterranean has loaded up on troops, and the Germanian air force is currently bombarding military sites of Corsica, with troops staging an amphibious assault on the island. It should fall within a few months. I thought you withdrew from Vietnam? But fine, I'll update it. [hide=map][/hide] Nah i was to stubborn to retreat past the beach heads and then simply waited them out Waited them out? It's their country lol

In the map you updated, you took Tunisia. I colonized it as a vaca spot for my government officials :cry: . I demand you give it back, or atleast give me another good vacationing country. Edit: My advisor Einojuhani Haapalainen wants to go to Greece over Christmas. Oh. Ok, let me find something. I can give you Las Palmas, a small island off the coast of Western Sahara. It would actually be a bit warmer than Tunisia. I just like the Mediterranean :P. [hide=updated map][/hide] That ok? I'm sure two of the world's largest super-powers can restore order a lot easier then Malaysia. Hehe. I find it funny that he wanted to quit, but wanted to make sure Germania and Brazil didn't get his land. Oh well...

:( I didn't start this one though!

If the mouse wasn't that expensive, just buy a new one. I doubt you have some sort of a warranty for a mouse, but if you just want a 3 button mouse with a scroll wheel you can get those for like $5.

Oh hell, that reminds me about my missile shield. I started building it like 2 weeks ago haha. So yea, it's done now, and building of one to cover greenland/iceland and the African countries bordering on the Mediterranean has begun. Germania declares war on Somalia due to their recent aggression against the Brazilian Empire. Half of all Germanian troops that were stationed in Africa (roughly 6 million in total - so 3 million) have crossed Chad and Sudan, and are moving into Ethiopia. Around a million of these troops have the computer chips installed, and around 100,000 have Russian exosuits equipped. A portion of the Germanian airforce is now flying support for these units, and the ships that Germania had stationed just off of Somalian controlled waters has moved in, and is providing naval bombardment support to Brazilian forces attacking heartland Somalia.
