(Surprisingly I actually agree with Ross on this one)

 

Japan offers to help destroy the Rods from Gods project, or at least retaliate against China if it goes through with it. If the program is not immediately ceased, serious reprecussions could take place, such as the total destruction of Beijing. :D

Italy offers its support to China.

 

When questioned, the Italian Prime Minister revealed he suspected great lulz would be had.

 

Libya has fallen to Italian troops. Map updated whenever. With Rocco's blessing, Italian troops throw stones at Eygpt's and prepare to invade. African troops are being used for the first time.

 

Project Chronosphere has begun. Sere, if you care, PM me asking for details. It's that thing I told you about in IRC.

 

EGM is experimenting with properties of various thingies on the sea floor.

 

The sea floor of the mediterranean has been mapped out and is available for download online!

 

EGMM has built some useful, not overpowered, weaponry for our troops to use.

Japan calls off its retaliation, citing the ineffectiveness of such a response to an orbital weapon.

Switzerland refuses to support the destruction of a city to ensure compliance.

Rocco blesses Dungeonal in his invasion. When asked if we could quote him on this policy, he burped and then opened another can of beer.

 

Couldn't we just hit the RFGs with a missile or something?

Because their an almost undetectable metal rod traveling at probably mach four atleast. Same reason why you can't shoot down bullets with missiles, only on a larger scale.

Hehe, have fun with that.

*Imagines terrorist launching RPG at the sky*

Oh, right. Uh, space debris? Major issue if anyone else wants to go into space. That's my best reason. Oh, and the fact a missile might need to be located in China, if the satellite is above china.

What if I just hit it with a big soft pillow missile and pushed it into deep space?

 

it would just use its thrusters to get back in position.

I know I'm a bit late but Europe had Newton, Galileo, that Norwegian guy that created the coilgun, Tesla, etc. +20

We're talking about real life. ;)

 

Besides... It's not fair to compare the feats of Europe (multiple nations) to America, since America is essentially a European off-shoot anyway. I could argue that Americans could claim people such as Shakespeare as their own since, at the time, the American colonies were just an off-shoot of England. I would argue that American intellectual history separated from the mother country when the American Revolution happened.

 

Enough of me staying up late. I have school tomorrow. Later. (Or as archimage says, "Toodle-pip")

Ok Mongolia should of definitely fell to Russia by now..

 

Update please?

Since Sere won't do anything and Paul won't give me any statistics...Best I can offer is a vote...Or just say you invaded unopposed(except by the people) if no one objects in 9 hours time...

 

(Its difficult to be pragmatic when people decide to be silly and start annexing countries instantly because someone invaded a country after some years or work...)

Switzerland calls an International Tetris Convention, Stratos Jets are sent out to transport those who wish to participate. Those who do arrive are treated to be the wonders of Arcology Delta V, as well as a new massively multiplayer Tetris game, the complexity of which is beyond the comprehension of all but the best Tetris players, who greatly enjoy it.

After two weeks the invities are sent home via Stratos Jets with special Handheld Tetris Pads as something to remember the event by.

 

Anyone want to specifically say they turn up?

 

(Since this wonderous event is about showcase the wonders of Switzerland, and the awesomeness of Tetris, along with no direct contact with many Swiss people, there are no lynchings..though why there would be anyway is beyond me...)

I'll go.

Italy sends Leonardo Calcaci!

COSS update:

Module one - done.

External arms - done.

Thruster [specification needed] - done.

 

Scandinavia works on lifesupport module two.

Errrrr, didn't China invade as well?

 

------

 

Japan did not send any tetris players, as the Stratos Jets transporting people to the event were banned by the Japanese military for flying over Japanese air space, specifically since the instruments there have a high tendency to blow things up in that area of the atmosphere.

I vote that the small Mongolian army bogged down the Russian army in sneak and guirella attacks, combined with attrition killing 10,000 Russian troops. The Mongolian troops were crushed, and the Russian army moves in unopposed (unless China moved in, which I swear they did at some point)

is italy open? if so, can i take it and name it the republic of druids? :thumbsup: :unsure: but um.. if not, tell me, i dunno much yet.

Italy has been taken by Dungeonal. Saudi Arabia and India are the largest countries that I see that are open. There's also Mexico. Check the map. It's under a hide tag on the front page.

I thought Sere was moderator. I would choose Archi as moderator, but I think he puts too much emphasis on inflation and P-Jet power for my liking. Other than those specific things, he would be a great moderator.

Summary: he has a different view of economics and physics.

mah bad, i guess ill go with mexico.. but can i still name it the repiblic of druids?

Sure, but try to set up a plausible story for it. Maybe there was some sort of "arcane" looking phenomenon. So please make sure you get acquanted with your country, maybe by looking at Wikipedia about its GDP, wealth level, problems, etc. That'll help you portray your nation realistically.

thanks dude, i gues my countrys story is that a cult of druidistic monks overtook the government, and as the leader, im the most recent ruler of mexico. the cult is not as druidic as it sounds, sometimes it just goes for the other green.. money. but as well as working on changing that to a more usefull outlet, im working on converting evryone to the cult.. heheh :thumbsup:

-Scared of cultic Druid monks-

 

Japan sends an ambassador group (one minister and a monk) to Mexico to greet the new government. They note that religion can be the way forward to enlightenment, and seek friendship.

Scandinavia sends an ambassador to Mexico;

 

You are welcome to join the creation of the new space station (the old one crashed), also be shure to send some scientists to SIRO TEMP (shared research facility) at Svalbard.
