Hegemony-V2 begins page 302

[Nero]

If we play by the Hegemony's rules does that mean that the Forth Reich keep all that land?

 

What do you mean? Which rule?

 

The rule that countries can disappear when the leader becomes inactive.

 

 

 

He conquered much of europe while the leaders of those countries were inactive. If those countries "disappear" due to the Hegemony's rule, then he doesn't have all that new land right?

 

 

 

There were no leaders of those countries, they were all unclaimed.

 

 

 

German news:

 

1,000,000 more foreign volunteers have joined the German army, now that they realize that The Fourth Reich is not a genocidal empire like the third, and most citizens of recently conquered territory are happy with the medical advances and safety that being part of T4R brings.

 

Diplomats have been sent to Mauritania, Niger and the Western Sahara to speak about possible includement within T4R. They would benefit greatly from a move.

 

German troops have moved into Holland, since their leader has been banned.

 

Germany is going through a massive population boom right now, what with soldiers coming home from the war and makin' some lovin'.

 

 

 

Current countries who have sent scientists to Haven:

 

Jerusalem

 

Somalia

 

Britannia

 

Germany

 

 

 

Any research that is concluded there will currently only be available to those countries. Speak up if you're sending scientists. And no military of any kind, remember.

 

I demand your troops leave holland now as flodder has given me partial control of Holland. He gave me control of the militairy already so i think it would be fair. And i would appreciate if you leave the rest of Africa alone

 

 

 

Fine, I'll withdraw my troops from Holland, but I'm not going to leave North Africa alone.

 

edit: Wait, what? There are military forces in Holland?

[Ouchy]

Another update on New Zealand:

 

After surveying the land, and planning the build, we are aiming to build 3 production factories. This is going to create about 700 jobs, maybe less. Estimated that it will take about 3 years for them to be finished.

 

 

 

@Serephurus: I'm not going that early ;)

[Seraphi]

Can I have my damn soldiers back yet?

[Latinoking]

Good morning fellow rulers of the world! I bring you the updated map!

Thought, I'll bump this post to remind the newer people what happen before..

[Nero]

Yesyes, I'll send them back soon.

Hey it looks like WWIII is just about done now but I'm still gonna build up my AA and @penguin heck yes i would like Borneo

[paul191600]

I'll send some scientists to the Haven. Ross, since I sent a colony of about 1,600 to Mars, I'm assuming that I will take part in the program? Bulgaria's update: Medicial project is almost complete, will take another year. Shuttles are also near completion, and should be ready to send supplies/people next year. Thruster research is underway.

[Seraphi]

Uuuuh, well, I suppose so.

 

 

 

Just some updates:

 

The first building has been created on the planet surface itself, and it has been tested by scientists to make sure it is safe to live in.

 

With this in mind, we can truly begin to colonize the planet.

 

I have also started work on some other buildings, but thats another matter for now.

 

A lot of my scientists have been diverted to researching space travel, and hope to create faster/more efficient ships and other machines in the next 5-6 years.

 

I would also like to ask Doom if I can look at the engine she and Indy designed which is capable of near light speed travel.

Here's the updated map. If there are any errors, let me know.

[Furah]

If Japan is claimable. My military is ready to take over Japan now. Its former ally won't mind..I am their ally. :

 

If it's alright with you I'd like to claim Japan if it becomes available. You already own a few countries and Japan is much closer to me (geographically speaking) aswell Japan is one of the biggest export countries for me. I would also be willing to share with you information on something that Japan has further advanced than you do.

 

You don't have the military to take Japan. Be realistic. But if you want to try...I can fight on Japan's side (as they are my ally) and defeat you.

 

Fight them? Oh no, I wouldn't do that, I was planning through a diplomatic approach. If you plan on invading them however, look out. I am Japan's ally too.

 

 

 

Fine, I'll withdraw my troops from Holland, but I'm not going to leave North Africa alone.

 

edit: Wait, what? There are military forces in Holland?

 

Haven't you read all 95 pages? Also, Rocco is in control of most of North Africa IIRC. He may not like your plan on invading his land.

If you need any help, just let your next door neighbours know.

[Latinoking]

Oh me too. Hmmmm. We can discuss this matter later.

malaysia would like to post two possible flag options for us :D

Can Pirate answer my question - are there military forces in Holland currently?

Ok, I am in Adv. Applications class atm. (Very boring, is Word, Excel, Power Point and Access as well as integrating it, we are doing Excel at the moment. I have lunch next and then Hardware, we will be watching videos or slideshows so we can talk then.

All countries have a military force. Then you have to factor in the fact that not all people would like for someone to invade their country, and you'd have the citizens to worry about, and they like to strike when you can't defend against it.

[jasignhagj]

Sounds fun.

 

 

 

The Treaty of The New Republic of Kazakh is signed into action by its elected leader. A new prosperous future awaits this country of 3 million. volunteers eagerly join the army, bringing it up to 150,000 active members, and 250,000 reserve members. Diplomats have been sent to Uzbekistan and mongolia, which expressed intrest in joining the cause. A peace treaty with Russia has been offered. In other news, the government is offering $1m for Sacha Baron Cohen, dead or alive. (i couldn't resist)

Couldn't resist. And welcome to the Tipit hegemony.

[RpgGamer]

I'm having some issues in real life so if I suddenly stop posting here, it's not due to lack of interest. I'll do my best to keep up.

 

 

 

Luxembourg transport vehicles are 30% faster due to reseach. The first human clone has been created and is stable condition. We'll have to watch closely to see it's success.

 

 

 

The Pope has suddenly died. A new one is to be elected a.s.a.p. Hopefully one more pro-progress.

 

 

 

Brazilian marked planes continue to travel around, research continues.

[The Dark Lord]

malaysia would like to post two possible flag options for us :D

 

 

 

 

 

Very well. I will update your part of the map to include your flag once I get the chance. I have school starting, so I'll have to do it when I get home from that (which starts in several hours). Just also include any new territory that you have, please.

 

 

 

Kazakhstan just joined the game. Alright. I'll update the map when I can.

 

 

 

Also, the Holy Empire of Jerusalem has claims to those two small countries on the Arabian Peninsula. I'll update that when I get the chance.

 

 

 

I would also like to propose an amendment to the rule concerning newcomers and claiming occupied territory. Since there's still unoccupied land, there's no need for claiming half of someone's country. This can cause too many problems and squabbles among people that already play here. Instead, I propose that if a new player wishes to claim territory that someone else has a claim to, that they simply ask politely through PM if they could have co-ownership or if they could rule it independently. This can prevent any problems of someone getting pissed off because another person just claimed their land, which can interfere with other peoples' enjoyment of the game.

[Nero]

Man, Lantino is going to have one hell of a time trying to govern all those Muslims as a Christian nation.

 

 

 

German news:

 

The research into the new Mobile Anti Air systems (aka the Goliaths from Starcraft) is nearing completion, and they should be ready for production next year.

 

Building has begun on land forts along the border with Russian, and bunkers dotted across German controlled land.

 

Germany's land forces are now all properly equipped, with the capturing of several supply depots from enemy lands.

 

500,000 new recruits from Germany's land in North Africa have volunteered for the army, with jobs being scarce and under-paid in the area. They are undergoing their training currently and will make up the core of the German garrison in North Africa.

 

Niger has agreed to inclusion in the German empire, eager to reap the benefits that entail being tied to a western industrialized nation.

 

Germany has finished its research on BMD1 (Bone mineral density 1), which would eliminate degenerative bone diseases for good. This new tech is being shared freely with all nations that want it, at no cost (this is not a military tech, just medical related).

 

 

 

Research on Haven progresses smoothly, and the tech to turn desert land into arable land is around 3-4 years away.

[Wisp]

You realize what makes a desert a desert is the lack of precipitation? Your technology may help some arid areas, but in true deserts it would be near useless. Unless you are now a rain god.

 

Also, the average Nigerian makes less than a dollar a day, you're going to need to put a lot of work into that country to make it mildly decent.

 

We are designing a new type of Assault rifles, with the help of Mikhail Kalashnikov's protege and son, the aging Viktor Kalashnikov, who recently signed a contract with us. We expect them to be completed in 13 years. We are also working on a new bullet type to go coincide with that same gun.

 

Progress in the former united states is going well. Forests have overgrown nearly everything in the past ~25 years, but we are still doing well. There are a few dozen settlements built up mostly of pre-fabs.

 

 

 

All of our sea based mobile missile shield platforms (MMSP) boats are moving to just off of the US's east coast. Static defenses are being built on the northern border as well.

 

Argentina has joined the B.E., and we expected other countries to follow soon.

If we can colonize space, we can turn deserts into arable land. I don't quite see why you're so opposed to the idea, as it wouldn't exactly benefit me at all, since I don't control and deserts.

 

 

 

And no more money then you had to put into your territories in Africa :)

Sounds good to me.

 

 

 

Diplomats from Mauritania and the Western Sahara have returned, and have brought news that the head of government in Mauritania has agreed to assimilation, but the dictatorship in Western Sahara has declined. Fortunately, a coup in the country is under-way, which should put in place a government more amiable to the idea.

 

 

 

Also, The Fourth Reich has renamed itself to Germania, since some people seem to think we're Nazis, and therefore justification for their own expansions. :-w

[Wisp]

Colonies in space are possible.

 

Making deserts arable is not without a weather machine, or constant shipments of water.

Well then, I guess I'm a weather God like you said. Let it pour!

 

Question though, what do you benefit from arguing this point? I assume that one of your main goals right now in this game is to limit me, but I can't seem to see how this would do that.
