Can someone fill me in?

 

 

 

There is a raging [fake] war going on testing Ross' suggestion for a war mechanic. Doom and Dusty have opted to manage their war themselves as they're reasonable about it.

 

 

 

India is being given away (in one piece) to Rocco and I. [More on this later]

 

 

 

My 300,000 troops attacking Ivalo in Finland still haven't been countered >.>

So Brazil and Germania are really at war? Don't think I'll be getting ten million weapons from Doom now. -.-

 

 

 

I was going to go ahead and post that some ships/aircraft/Lancelots have been build in my absence (I said I was going to be working on building some before my Internet went ka-put). I have about 200 million I'm willing to invest every year into the military, but I am not sure what to say that I made. :lol:

 

 

 

Destroyers are how much again? How long do they take on average to make?

 

How many hypersonic jets do you think I could have bought?

 

Considering that I have people willing to produce Lancelots for me in their factories, as well as the fact that I have factories of my own, think I could have made about another 300-500,000 Lancelots if I invested money into that funding since September 2?

I can see the ambiguity in what I said; but all wars going on are fake.

Your plane ran into a seagull. Going at that speed, it flew through the cockpit, killing the pilot and crashing the plane. Germanian scientists are now studying it.

 

Oh! Breakthrough! We've managed to build our own Talons, 4000 should be ready in a week, and for a cost of 10 cents each.

 

 

 

Actually, no. We've found the plans to build the Talon in Nigeria. Apparently one of your chief scientists got scam't hard.

 

What the hell?

Sorry I couldn't get on earlier.

 

How did you get troops all the way up to Ivalo with out them freezing to death? The average MAX temperature is rarely above freezing. If you sent 300,000 troops, then only about 30,000 could still fight adequately, after you account for hypothermia, frostbite, and cold fingers.

 

And that's ignoring how you even got them there. Your country is half the world away, so getting there would take an extremely long amount of time. You could boat through the solid-ice arctic ocean, fly over China and Russia (which possibly wouldn't go well). You would need to refill your jets multiple times, and when you finally got there, your engines would work with a lot less efficiency. Around 75% of your planes that flew over my land would have been shot down, so only 75,000 would make it too Findenland, and only 7500 would be able to fight after the first month.

 

 

 

And to Dusty: He could never have "snuck in by rivers through the cover of darkness" because in the summer, the only time the rivers flow, there is never enough darkness to cover up a large amount of troops. If he went during winter, when it is nearly always dark, all the rivers would be frozen over.

 

 

 

Any troops to make it into Finland would be easily taken care of.

 

 

 

EDIT: Propaganda is being used through out Findenland saying how badly Dungeonal treats his people, and how the Findens should put in end to this. We did this for our war against Germania too.

No they walked along the frozen rivers while your sentries were drinking tea.

 

 

 

What about a submarine fleet under the icecaps? Sounds sensible enough - though not for 300,000 troops. Let's call it 80,000.

 

 

 

Cold is an issue yes but as long as they're properly equipped it's not too bad; they've been training on top of the mountains of Japan and it's not exactly warm u there either.

 

 

 

[Hedgehog, just checking you realise this is a fake war?]

 

 

 

Also, Mage, are you a dirty idler or do you wear your halo with pride like myself?

Unless you've invested about 1.3 trillion and 40 years into building subs constantly, you have nowhere near that many.

why won't you just let me tease findenland

 

 

 

where is the most recent map, btw?

 

 

 

I give up on the war k

 

 

 

I was only in it for the lols

I was working on it, but gave up once all those Pacific islands gave me a headache.

 

And so what's going on with India?

 

I think I'll just hide while you guys have fun with your hallucination war.

[Wisp]

Eh, just take some cargo boats and send them on a long route through the southern atlantic. My ships won't shoot at them if they don't attack me.

Wonderful!

 

 

 

300,000 troops, with 280,000 still fit to fight running rampage in Northern Finland because Hedgehog failed to post a counter. He just assumed my troops were ill prepared. Sigh.

[The Dark Lord]

Okay, how much do modern destroyers cost, and how long do they take to build?

 

 

 

I wanna see how many I made while I was gone, considering that I said I was going to start buying weapons, building naval ships, building/updating my airforce, and building Lancelots.

WRONG. We don't have any tea. The deal with Penguingeek never worked.

 

You can't walk on the frozen rivers, you would easily fall through and then drown/hypothermia.

 

Assuming you trained your troops at the top of Mt. Fuji, the only spot in Japan that gets even close to the temperatures in Ivalo, your troops would need to be using air tanks to breathe. You would spend a bunch of money. The site I looked at sells 125 breathes of oxygen for around $50. According to WikiAnswers, you breath 17,280 times a day. Assuming you only take a breath every minute to conserve oxygen, you would take 1440 breaths a day. That's worth about $576 day per person. If you train 400,000 men, that's $230 million dollars a day. You can't afford that.

 

 

 

So the only reasonable way to train them would be at much lower elevations, where oxygen tanks are not necessary. At that point, your soldiers would be really under trained for the climate.

 

 

 

Even if they were used to the climate, they can still get cold related injuries.

 

 

 

You can go ahead and put troops in submarines and try to get them by my coastal protection in the arctic ocean. Even if you got by my subs, you'd have to send troops through Norway to get to Finland, then through 250 kilometers (no idea how many miles) to Ivalo in freezing temperatures.

 

 

 

So 80,000 troops in submarines. Lets say you get 40,000 onto land. I'm not sure how many vehicles you can fit on a submarine, but I will assume you have enough to outfit 75% of your troops. The 25% that aren't in a vehicle would likely be dead with in a single day. So the leaves you with 30,000 troops. Then it will be around 4 hours to get your troops to Ivalo. That's plenty of time for my planes in Rovaniemi to come and harass your troops before they even reach my troops in Ivalo. So you would have around 27500 soldiers in Ivalo, not hard to defeat, especially since I'm defending.

 

 

 

I know this is a fake war. Your methods still fail. Why would you even attack a small city in northern Finland? Makes no sense.

 

 

 

EDIT: Dungeonal, please continue your assault, I want to test out my military.

[Seraphi]

Hallucination:

 

The extra 3 million drones have now joined up with the 790,000 that are already there, accounting for 60,000 lost due to enemy harrasment.

 

 

 

Plan is still pitchfork formation, there are 1.2 million drones in the front squadron, the rest have now fled to the sides of the battlefield, ready to attack.

 

This tactic means that even if he turns to the side to attack a different group, he will still be hit from the side and back as well.

 

10,000 reaper drones have been directed to go to the nearby city of Putrajaya, and have instructions to eliminate police forces to throw the city into chaos, much the same as I did with Kuala Lumpur. I have also sent around 8000 Icarus drones to intercept supply convoys, again, much the same as I did with the capital.

 

 

 

By now, my ARC cannons have melted through those mirror shields, and have blown a large hole into the Malaysian space station.

 

Rhadamanthus I is moving to engage what remains of it.

 

 

 

Non Hallucination:

 

 

 

A new, armoured drone is being produced.

 

It will have only small weapons, probably just pistols, and will be designed as a mobile wall, with 4" thick iron plates covering the front side of it.

 

They shall be named Atlas drones.

 

 

 

 

 

Dusty, I posted a picture of the Icarus drones before.

 

They look like they would be mechanical ninjas to me.

[Hedgehog]

Non hallucination: Findenland has started work on several "blasters" that launch small rocks at the cockpits of high speed planes. If they hit the plane correctly, the plan will smash into the rock and kill the pilot. Many of these will be constructed across Findenland.

 

 

 

Also, around 90% of furniture produced in Findenland is assembled by the user so citizens will save money when redecorating houses, AKA, more money to tax for me.

 

 

 

Another recipe has been added to my cookbook: Shrimp cocktail, it is magical because it causes hallucinations.

How exactly do you plan to hit a plane with a single rock, if the plane is going like 4 miles every second.

 

And that would lead to less tax money for you.

I'm not sure, that is best left for the people inventing it. I think it involves anticipating where the plane would go. If a plane is flying straight for Helsinki from due south, the blaster would rotate and shoot rocks straight up into the air and hit the plane.

 

Even if it meant less money, my people would be happier.

 

 

 

EDIT: My 100th post in this thread. Go me.

[The Dark Lord]

We have declared London as the new official capital (it was basically the official capital of Britannia, anyway).

[Seraphi]

Just thought I'd show the map that I spent ten minutes stitching together from googlemaps.

 

This is basically the area of the current battle.

 

[hide=Large map][/hide]

 

 

 

Its Malaysia's capital and the surrounding areas.

 

I have my main force stationed northeast of the main city, with small drone squads ambushing anything that moves into or out of the city.

 

 

 

To get there, I marched through Burma, across the malaysian border and then into that location, I lost roughly 500,000 troops of the four million I sent on the way there. Malaysian casualties numbered at about 245,000.

 

 

 

I'll draw my troops locations in a minute, but I wont draw the ambush squads, as they are basically all around the outside area.

plsrewrite your post :/

 

 

 

I see what you're saying about Mount Fuji - but I don't have to train them all at once. And all the same, extreme cold can be simulated.

 

 

 

So let's say that during the march to Ivalo another 15,000 troops were incapacitated [via cold] and 5,000 were picked off by your patrol parties. Seeing as you admitted you weren't defending Ivalo, we've been able to commandeer the city so our troops clothes and food have been replenished. We're fortifying the city as we await your counter attack.

 

 

 

Non-Hallu:

 

Alright, I give India back to Dungeonal, as he probably deserves it more. I move my capitol back to Sri Lanka and the space ship project has been canceled due to lack of funding.

 

 

 

 

<3. We'll fund your space ship project as compensation, I'm not sure how much you need but I suspect we'll be able to pay you up to 50 million a year for it.

 

 

 

Immediate plans have been put in place to help fund education in India, and we're encouraging anyone who can't read or write to go back to school. More on this later.

Britannia, Japan, the Holy Empire of Jerusalem, and the Empire of Aether have worked together in order to co-found the New World Order.

 

 

 

Britannia is proud to have been apart of something that has been a step closer to World Peace.

 

 

 

EDIT: Would someone PLEASE tell me the cost of the most updated destroyers/frigates in the game and how long they take to build? I am also interested in hypersonic fighters for my airforce. Any money that hasn't been allotted for the navy and airforce has been put into buying infantry weapons and producing more Lancelots.

[Seraphi]

[hide=Massive map - Battle plan][/hide]

 

 

 

There we go.

 

There are three groups outside the city, one is very large, but the other two are not exactly small, either (They also contain experimental atlas drones.)

 

 

 

I lost roughly 500,000 drones getting to that location, leaving me with 3.5 million.

 

500,000 have been sent south to another nearby city though, since I think Malaysia's main army is waiting to engage me here.

 

 

 

Another good thing about drones, they all move in unison, so being able to maintain a complex formation is rendered simple.
