Wisp

Sorry about the confusion with country's a few pages ago. I quoted that and left the tab open, and didn't notice it wasn't Israel saying that. I do know who everyone is though, unless they're new. Brazil now has total control over angola, though most of the old government officials are still in place, they answer to us now. We are starting negotiations with Namibia, Botswana, and Zambia as well. All petroleum drilling is now being funded directly by the Brazilian government, and 50% of it is being put into reserve. We have also left the Opec Cartel, and are requesting admission to Nopec. 65% of iron is being shipped back to Brazil for refining and use in internal projects, the rest is being sold to the international market. Diamond smuggling has been cracked down upon, and diamonds are now being shipped back to Brazil en masse for construction of a torre dos céus. Construction of facilities for building ah helicopters is nearing completion. 50,000 troops are now stationed in angola, and our supercarrier, a normal carrier and two nuclear submarines are anchored off the coast. AIDS and malaria vaccines we received from argentina are finally being put to use in angola, and our scientists are replicating the cures in order to make more. So, luxembourg, we're now pretty close to you in zimbabwe. Solar panels are starting to be deployed in strategic locations throughout angola. Also, tristan da kuhna is now claimed by Brazil. This took about a week to take control of game time, due the fact that there are only like 200 people there.

If by there you mean Hawaii, then Israel knows that. The Israeli navy is speeding towards New York World City place thingy. That would be in America. In the highest populated city in the US. More people live there than in your entire country. Plus I doubt the US military usually likes navies sailing towards them.

Fair enough nick. Also, OP was talking about troop movements. Think of it this way, if you're taking a plane, consider it to be pretty much instant as each day is 8 minutes. So at most, a flight should take 6 minutes real time. For moving troops by sea, it could take up to an hour and a half to two hours real time. Ok, in Brazilian news our remaining aircraft carrier has been completed, along with the 4 other nuclear submarines. 12 cargo ships have been loaded with solar panels, and fuel cells. All of our amphibious ships have been filled with ground troops and equipment, taking approximately 55,000 active soldiers from the army. They are now en route to Angola, where negotiations with their government are near completion, and their leaders are expected to hand over control of the country to us shortly. This does not go against the rules, I've been working on this country diplomatically for the last 3 days if you look back. I'll post more on brazil later, but the basics are that we've increased space program funding by over 15 times thanks to a vote earlier this year. Our urban redistribution project is going well, to move people out of inner cities and either out into newly built suburbs or the country. Over 15 million citizens have volunteers for that. Finally, we've started production on apache helicopters, with a few improvements of our own, now that we have the schematics. Once again, I'll post more later but I have to go.

It also, unless I i misinterpreted it, looks like you can have multiple support powers at once. So you can get as many kills as you want without worrying about losing your airstrike for a mostly useless chopper (in most cases. Not counting snd or anything)

i have nz already. Darn! My plans are foiled.... What's a small and worthless island that nobody would claim? Svalbard.

i have nz already. Way to quote someone on the second page. Good job.

High caliber machine guns and sniper rifles. That will solve all of our problems with Rage zombies.

Maybe crack down on all violence between religions immensely, and promote tolerance programs? Speaking of religion, in my country the number of Catholics is falling, notably due to the takeover of the Vatican, and loss of faith in god due to this. Atheism/Agnosticism makes up 18% of the population now, up from 8% 3 years ago. Catholicism is down to 66% as well. Gauper, what country were you? EDIT: I don't think the moon can declare war on anyone, considering you are it's only inhabitant.

Ok, sub-saharan Africa is the unclaimed zone. And to the Argentinians, how do you have aircraft carriers? Each takes atleast a year to build, and Argentina had no aircraft carriers before this game. Also, destroyers have pretty much been declared useless. Almost all modern navies have ditched them. The US currently has no destroyers, for example. In Brazilian news, three of the four planned aircraft carriers have been completed and are now docked off our coast. The fourth, due to it's immense size will not be completed for 6 months atleast. 12 frigates and 6 cruisers have also been completed. Our older aircraft carrier, although slightly modernized will be decommissioned in a few years, though for now it is stationed just of the coast of Angola, where we now have a 20,000 man garrison on our leased land from the government. In other news, the Government HQ is being constructed at an undisclosed location. In Cultural news, Carnaval will take place in a few weeks, all the hotels in Rio are sold out, and tourism is expected to break records. In technological news, the first Brazilian underwater independent housing unit (UIHU) is being tested in 200 foot deep waters off our coast. If this is successful, we hope to move to deeper waters. Troubling news has reached our officials, guerrillas from one of our northernmost territories have seized control of a small town, one regiment of our special operations team, along with a regiment of standard troops have been dispatched to end this small rebellion. The BBN (Brazilian Broadcasting Network) is reporting riots over a local election in our territory of Brazilian Guyana (Formerly French Guyana) Though they are expected to blow over within the week. And that's the news from Brazil. And adrenal, how many of them are there? I might be able to take them to populate some future colonies I have planned.

I got my first million trading early weapons from the blacksmith to the fairfax traders. Then I made a few more selling high level weapons from the guy near the crucifix, to the fairfax people. Then I bought every property.

The SAR had control of all of south america, but it was dissolved 6 months game time ago. The IAC is Russia, China, and Japan. The EC is various countries in europe. I don't remember all of them. There's another asian alliance of india and taiwan that is sort of against the IAC, but not violently at this point. And then there's you and the US. That's all I remember. You can only pick one. Now you have to make plans for them (like their military, economy, culture, etc.) You could also join the EC if you wanted, a defensive alliance between various European countries.

Mexico, iran and poland might be good choices as well. Especially Iran. Seeing as greenland has only 60.000 people and is technically part of denmark. Okay, scratch those plans. I'll take one of those, either Mexico or Iraq, most likely. I'll check the economies of each and make a decision. PS. To whoever owns Denmark, I would really recommend looking into the Hydrocarbons that are presumed to be under the ice sheet. Actually, I could be wrong, but I don't think Denmark's owned. So you could probably get denmark and then control both that and greenland.

Yah, disapointed you don't get money for quests, either. (for fable II) But I guess jobs make up for it... :| Not like you get any money doing a job. Getting money was way too easy in fable 2.

Brazil will also keep the seeds and processed verde to ourselves until we have fully researched it. It's been around 5 months since my last update on brazil. Since the dissolution of the SAR, Brazilian moral has gone up, since the majority of taxes are now going towards our own country rather than our neighbors, and people see the merits of our spending. Our factories are slowing their production of planes and tanks. Here is the total makeup of the Brazilian Military at this point: [hide=Military]Total: 600,000 in active service. 1,554,000 in reserve. Army: 400,000 in active service. 950,000 in Reserve Technology and Vehicles: 511 T99 Tanks 322 T96 Tanks 392 Leopard Tanks 90 m60 tanks 420 Various Towed Howitzers 72 m108 Howitzers 38 m109 Howitzers 600 Various towed Mortars 420 various apcs 754 Various Fast troop transports (Humvees, jeeps etc.) Navy: 78,000 active personnel 350,000 Reserve 1 aircraft carrier (3 more in production) 7 submarines (2 more in production) 13 frigates (43 in production, larger project canceled due to budget restrictions) 12 corvettes 11 minehunters 7 amphibious ships 49 patrol boats 39 auxiliary ships Air Force 112,000 active personnel 250,000 Reserve 1 Airbus A319 51 AMX International AMX 40 Bell UH-1 Iroquois 4 Boeing KC-137 Stratoliner 2 Boeing 737 10 Mirage 2000 32 Mi-35M 4 Black Hawks 32 Northrop F-5E/F Tiger II 321 su-30 jets 112 jh-11 Jets. 7 AH-64 Apaches 2 Eurofighters (50 more in production)[/hide] The CAD Project is halfway completed. Civilian projects are going well, roadways have connected all but the most obscure amazon towns, and internal trade is booming. Exports of our solar technology is bringing in a large amount of money. Negotiations with the Angolan government have been successful, they have leased us a 12 mile bit of their coastline. Construction of an embassy/base is underway, 1,500 troops are stationed there for protection.

Rules 1 & 2 only apply to raids. It's funny how rules 1, 2, 34, and 35 are the only rules that people follow. 34 isn't exactly a rule, but a fact.

To whichever European country said they'd sell me a few jets like 6 pages back, I accept. You know who you are, and I don't want to re-read everything again. Ok, for fighting, here's my suggestion. Africa is mostly unclaimed. How about that is the main unclaimed part of the world, and thus that's where most fights will take place. If the two Asian factions want to fight, I think that's down to them. I don't think any countries should have protection from magical death rays in space. If they want protection, they should either train a military, or join an alliance. Most people won't be willing to attack any alliances, since it would result in too many casualties for them, so you'd be mostly safe. Also, I'm going to cut most diplomatic ties with anyone outside of the americas. I don't want to have to defend someone half way around the world.

Columbia, peru, and ecuador if I remember right.

Once more, I want to obtain either a eurofighter typhoon from any european country that uses them, or the schematics for it. The plane itself normally costs around 60m, but I'll pay 600m for it in fuel cells.

In that case, Brazil deploys it's aircraft carrier, and 4 cruisers into international waters 50 miles off the coast of Antarctica, to prevent any drilling. Also, brazil begins research on "Project CAD" Also, business proposition for the EC, or any other european countries. I want a eurofighter typhoon and the schematics. A eurofighter itself costs 60million or so, so I'll pay you with 1 million fuel cells. Each cell is equal to 200 gallons of gas, so in otherwords, each cell is worth about 600 dollars. So I'd be giving you 600 million dollars worth of stuff.

Don't compare it to the real world and there is a fair basis start and I have support too so I should be able to get the oil. No there's not. You're supposed to improve your country from where it is in the real world. You don't magically have billions of dollars. Why not work on increasing the cigar industry? EDIT: @Run4Runes - One word. Hyperinflation. Plus, the last thing the world needs is more oil being pumped into it. It goes against all the environmental progress many countries have worked towards. Do any other world leaders agree with me that drilling in antartica should not be allowed?

Also, considering cuba is still in an economic slump from the cold war and after, they don't have the resources to first, build drilling apparatus able to drill two miles through ice, then through the land below it, where there probably isn't oil at all, then build a pipeline to the coast, and build a massive port. That would 15 billion dollars or so. Plus maintenance.

Just woke up. A few realism factors first: Nuclear submarines cost probably billions of dollars to first research, and then a similar number to produce. To build one from scratch it would take over a year, iirc. Ok, I propose we end the SAR as it is, as in it's current organization, it makes each of our home country's spend too much on other countries, and it hampers each country's own improvement. As lent posted a few pages back, nick could have the central region, if he wanted. Now, assuming that goes through, if it doesn't and the SAR remains, brazil will leave the SAR within three months. Anyways, frakir_staer, I'll offer a close alliance with you. I'll protect you if you're country is in danger, Brazil currently has one of the strongest armies in the world (Our army made up almost 2/3 of the SAR army), and we can help you end your addiction to oil. The way to do that is a cartel indy500fan set up, called nopec. Basically, it would steadily raise the prices of oil, and slowly less people would buy. But, with the money you make from that immediately, you invest in alternative energy infrastructure. It will make the world stop using oil sooner rather than later. Also, it's now 6 months into the year. Here's what's happened. Military wise: Brazil has produced 300 t99 and 100 t96 tanks, and have produced our first nuclear submarine after years of prior research and construction (irl brazil has been researching nuclear subs for years). A twin vessel is expected to be completed within the following months. Over 200 su-30 planes and 50 jh-11's have been completed. More are on the way. We have started construction on four aircraft carriers, one being a "supercarrier". They are expected to be completed next year. 50 cruisers are planned for the year after that. Military personnel are being trained to use all of our new technology. Civilian Improvements: Brazil is now 90% energy independent, most cars are now powered or assisted by a solar charged fuel cell. With the enactment of the "energized cities" act, almost all roofs have been covered with solar panels. We are now exporting fuel cells to anyone who wish to buy them. Anyone? They are each equal to about 200 gallons of petrol, and can be shipped back to us for recharging. Our merchant fleet has been trading with the west coast of africa, along with china and many countries throughout the americas.. Poverty is almost nonexistant at this point. Tourism has gone through the roof with the completion of the Viava Spiral Tower in Rio de Janeiro. Also, brazil disaproves of colonization and exploitation of Antarctica. In the world leaders conference in new york, we have made a stand against it (That's happening right now.

The fault isn't facebooks, it's his. He linked to the pages the pictures are on rather than to the pictures themselves. 88, to post them, right click on the photo, hit copy image location, then add image tags to that.
