Hegemony

[Seraphi]

Africa is a pretty big place. And that country is pretty large as it is. Why don't you guys split it or something.

 

Hey, I'm just a messanger here, don't shoot me for saying this.

[Icuownage]

Rocco already has a deal going on, so he has no land to give up.

[Grim_]

As opposed to me taking a few acres of snow and getting yelled at?

[Guest Mrmegakirby]

Research of the Battlestation is complete. (Insert evil laughter here)

Research of the SB-27 is complete. (More evil laughter. Woot.)

Annexation of Malaysia continues.

Research of the Destroyer and it's cousin, the destroyer junior begins.

Torpedo launchers, gatling gun, machine guns, cannon, anti-air guns...The works.

Let's assume it has a propeller of some sort, and it's well drawn.

Troop count has reached 1.2 million, no more will be recruited.

 

Budget:

 

Research: 10%

Army: 15%

15%: Building (1 battle station and 50 SB-27s will be built annualy)

Annexation of Malaysia: 20% (8/10)

40%: Infrastructure

5% of Commonwealth citizens want to reverse all republican elements and return to a monarchy

 

*The proposed constitution will abolish the Lord Protectorate and create the office of President. The President will not be selected from a member of the royal family and will be elected democratically by the people and will be installed by a Committee of Electors.

Anywho, Byzantium guarantees the independence of Azerbaijan against attacks from countries that aren't Orthodox Christian.

 

So, guaranteed against everyone but Russia.

 

Research/testing starts on the Mark I Personnel Armour.

Solidus I and Hyperpyron I done testing. Production begins, estimated at 40 each per year.

Turn out of the plebisicte is unpublished...though Palin Media services indicate that it is around 5% of the population. British Media services have denied this.

[The Dark Lord]

Archi, please explain how my annexation is only an occupation and how come the American colonies are still "autonomous" despite the fact that I now control the government in that region... for at least a year now.

 

Anyway, what you're saying doesn't make a bit of sense, sorry.

[archimage_a]

Retech wanted to contest it, which is his right, either concessions are made, or you convince Retech to stop contesting the situation...Or you go on a genocidal killing spree and make the area is cleansed of anyone who might make trouble.

 

 

It should be fairly simple what I am saying. The Free Press in the Country You have Invaded is Saying that the Plebiscite you Held had a Turnout of Less than 5%.

Therefore Implying that it is about as Representive as Asking the King if America should be a Monarchy.

 

Naturally the Occupying Media have denied this.

[The Dark Lord]

I see now. I thought that Retech was no longer a valid player and couldn't do that, so that explains the confusion.

 

Very well. I will make contact with him and work out a deal somehow.

[Wisp]

How does this affect me, annexing Alaska peaceably?

[Grim_]

Ah that reminds me: The person controlling what appears to be sarah palin is asked to step out of the shadows. The actual response is "Yes it was funny the first few times but honestly? You put those... things up at three different locations after being nuked? Could you be any more blatant?" EDIT: Oh and that was a bit of a [bleep] move retech (along the lines of "If I can't have it noone can :angry: "

[archimage_a]

How does this affect me, annexing Alaska peaceably?

 

It doesn't annexing peacefully bypasses the whole process. So unless someone Conqueres Alaska and sticks two fingers up to you...you should be fine.

 

You put those... things up at three different locations after being nuked? Could you be any more blatant?"

 

Five actually.

 

Anywho, not much happens, Palin makes a couple of speeches about her commitment to American Freedom, ect, ect

[Grim_]

The French government repeats it's request (is sword of the stars worth buying or.... acquiring?)

Oh and a localized EMP is detonated near the location of where palin is giving a speech (ie within a 1/2 mile of her with an EMP of a 2 mile radius) While a spy satellite watches overhead. If Palin slumps over a paramedics team (read spies) checks her vitals and does a quick scan of her body.

[The Dark Lord]

It's Bill Clinton, of course.

[archimage_a]

The French government repeats it's request (is sword of the stars worth buying or.... acquiring?)

Certaintly. However they changed the game dynamic with each of the mods. The Born of Blood Mod, was probably my favoured choice, but A Murder of Crows is the most interesting.

 

There are no slumpings, although the disturbances to the power grids are aggravating people. Also, you notice that there is a medical entourage nearby already, in each case.

[Wisp]

So Archi, annexing Alaska will bring me to .875 infra? So if I put 300b into aid missions (around 20-25%) I would end up with 1.3 infra at the end of the decade? Assuming nothing else happens.

[archimage_a]

Aid missions and spending on infrastructure effects the next decade, not this decade. You would still lose the .125 of your budget.

[Wisp]

What if it went into infrastructure then? Or is that in the same boat.

[archimage_a]

Same Boat. The system was designed(by you lot, not me) to make it impossible to recover within the decade.

[Wisp]

Well, I suppose I could always take the hit. What IAG boost would I get from Alaska? I also think I get some of Canada, but I forget the agreement I had with Grim.

I think Alaska would give me like 40 billion, and Nigeria the same.. plus like 2 from Niger. Leaving me with 82 billion there. Is the 12% loss applied before or after this is added? So like I get 12% of 1.4t or 12% off 1.5? Not that it makes the biggest difference.

[archimage_a]

All of the American states have an IAG of 200 billion.

[Wisp]

All of the American states have an IAG of 200 billion.

Oh, sweet. So, is the 12% loss applied before or after that's added on?

 

Because if it's done before, I get like 1.56 trillion IAG, and done after I get like 30 billion less. Just curious.

[archimage_a]

After, I think. It was never decided on, so it will just be whatever I think at the time.

[Wisp]

Oh, almost forgot, the next decade after all this will my IAG regain the 200 billion or whatever that I lose if I get my infrastructure back above 1? Or is it I just don't drop any further.
