The Dark Lord

Hi. I just annexed you because you've been inactive for a while, but I can probably offer you a position in the Empire if you still want to at least hang around for the conversation. Well, technically, I annexed Belgium and the Netherlands. Grim got Luxembourg.

I did that once, but my neighbors never talked to me much after that for some odd reason...

Belgium and the Netherlands have been united under Commonwealth rule into the Kingdom of the Netherlands with both capitals at Brussels and Amsterdam. A viceroy has been selected as Governor of the Netherlands.

Wouldn't be the smartest of ideas... By the way, Arch, when do my battle plans go into effect? Well, somebody blocked one of my main routes of expansion, so I haven't much choice at this point. I need the money, not the land. How is the Congo blocking your route of expansion? Just as long as you don't harm the villagers or oust the Christians (including the Knights), there shouldn't be any problems. However, if you do go in and slaughter them, we won't do anything about it, but you will have the blood of well over a thousand martyrs on your hands... It's your choice, though. If you go into Europe, then you are guaranteed to be committing suicide. If you do expand further south in Africa and play your cards right, there shouldn't be any problems. The Grand Master never said that his men would automatically retaliate. He merely stated that they would protect the villagers at all costs.

Wouldn't be the smartest of ideas... By the way, Arch, when do my battle plans go into effect?

Dusty, Archi told me that he did that because they united against you. Sadly, resistance is futile. Anyway, I will go ahead and announce more techs: -New Exoskeleton suits ("MarineCom 1") [ 6 years ] -Strength I [ 400 million a year for 12 years ] Badass Sneakers [ 1000 a year for 1 year ]

Due to my lack of creativity and my desire to research new helicopters, I will steal Dusty's image from Avatar since I can't find anything better to use. It will be ready by 2040.

They're just Jungle Folk, guys. Quick! To the Racism Mobile! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1JMyrVZpe7g Yeeeeeeeeehaaaaaaaw!

They're just Jungle Folk, guys.

Sounds good.

I third that motion. Lol, Dusty.

Personally, we shouldn't go into space right now. Also, I believe that FTL shouldn't even be implemented since it is impossible. If we didn't allow my Falstad's Process to be that great, I don't see why we should go gung-hoe and implement FTL. Likewise, isn't it a bit unfair to vote in favor of aliens as NPCs, Archi? You purposefully didn't vote in the poll above that one because you thought it would be unfair. It kind of defeats the purpose if you abstain from voting on one thing then turn around and vote on another.

We used PEMDAS ("Please Excuse My Dear Aunt Sally") Parentheses, Exponents, Multiplication, Division, Addition, Subtraction It's the same thing, of course. It just may be easier, depending on who you are.

Honestly, I think that we should stay in the same solar system. The original Hegemony was tainted by the space exploration and all that jazz. I, for one, think that it would be best just to keep space exploration limited to Mars bases.

The Commonwealth has authorized another military increase for the Grand Army: -cap of 500,000 Active -cap of 1,200,000 Reserves -cap of 700,000 Colonial militia

We should be able to research whatever we want without any caps on the projects that we can have at a time. If you are creative and can afford it, go for it. @Icu, I will get back to you with that. I just need to think of some projects that I wouldn't mind you doing for me.

Icu, You said something about giving me a few free techs in exchange for me helping you (sending workers). I won't pay for research since that wasn't part of the deal.

Anyway, apparently annexing halves your IAG, which it totally doesn't state in the rules. Whatever. I now am arsed for the next few decades for no reason.

Front page. I now have one of the lowest IAGs for no reason.

The aid to Iran is being canceled for this decade due to half of Britannia's funds disappearing magically... IAG decreased from 1.47 trillion to 819 billion for no reason at all...

Honestly? What have I done to you...? You haven't done anything to me, but it is a reasonable assumption that you'll invade the Congo, which could potentially be dangerous for the Knights and volunteers that I already had stationed there. Assuming that some of your men will raid and pillage villages, it is pretty fair for the Grand Master to assume that the villagers are threatened.

Very well. They will help a lot in the Congo.

The Knights of the Order would very much appreciate assistance from the Knights of Thirteen. Archive purposes: Holy Imperial Order: -35,000 volunteers (missionaries, teachers, etc) Knights of the Order: -25,000 Knights -20,000 Squires -25 regional Grand Masters -200 Master-Commanders -250 Senechals -300 Turcopoliers -500 Marshals -550 Under-Marshals -1,000 Standard-Bearers -3000 Sergeants -25 Treasurers -10,000 Drapers -3,000 Lay-Servants -777 Chaplin brothers Grand Army: -450,000 Active -900,000 Reserve -400,000 Colonial militia Continental Army: -N/A -N/A -N/A Annexations: -Greenland -Nova Scotia -Newfoundland -New Brunswick -US land east of Mississippi River, minus Florida Research: -HUD optical implants [500 million a year for 7 years] ( 1/7 ) -Bio-engineered plants [100 million a year for 12 years] ( 1/12 ) -Carbon nanotube research [700 million a year for 5 years] ( 1/5 ) -Alternative energy research [1 billion a year for 10 years] ( 1/10 ) -Continue researching Falstad's Process -A new line of land vehicles for the military [300 million a year for 5 years] ( 1/5 ) -Thor-class tank (new generation) [400 million a year for 8 years] ( 1/8 ) -Cromwell-class frigate [200 million a year for 3 years] ( 1/3 ) -Valkyrie-class dropship for Royal Marines [600 million a year for 12 years] ( 1/12 ) -WATCHTOWER Advanced-Radar and Early Warning Network [800 million for 11 years] ( 1/11 ) -Knight-class Humanoid Assault Vehicle [750 million a year for 15 years] ( 1/15 )

Due to the Egyptian hostilities in the region, the 500 Knights and missionaries and teachers stationed in the Congo are using any resource that is available in order to set up makeshift fortifications around villages. "We will not yield to Islamofascism," said Sir Arthur Wilkes, "We will defend these poor villagers if necessary."

Oi there are two Californians on this forum! The main rule of thumb is mexico has less mexicans (at least in some parts). Anyways I think sere is giving me quebec for some reason (possibly to avoid a rebellion of Quebecois ) 2! There are at least three Britons...and A Briton counts for 40 Americans. :rolleyes: Anyway, I think getting offended by someone not knowing exactly where your homeland is, in a game where you daily commit genocide in places you didn't know existed(see Africa), is kinda hypocritcal. So there. Well I'm Canadian so I'm exempt from needing to know all of the US' bazillion states. You only need to know three states. New York, for being where I live. (Note that Earth, Poseidon, and Nex live there too, and a New Yorker = Briton) California for being the 7th largest economy in the world, and Texas for the heaven of Republicans. Debodiahs ah fwom New Yoik?
