The United States as a country has completely disappeared from the world map. The people are feared missing, though the infrastructure still seems to be in place. The Canadians quickly swooped in, annexing all the land. Hehehe.

 

 

 

 

Country: Canada

Player: Retech9691

Leader Name: Emporer Henry the Fifth

National Anthem: O Canada!

Random Fact: Canada added the US to its territory, after all its inhabitants mysterious disappeared from the map.

IAG: Will add

Treasury: Will add

Since I am restarting as a new country for the sake of everyone, my researches have started today despite me not posting them, while I am annexing Singapore, New Zealand, and Greenland (without Denmark, considering Greenland is an independantly governed territory). Another ten percent is spent to build a decent military.

Research begins:

Project X: 0/10

Project Z: 0/15

You act like money is everything in this game. It's an advantage, but there are dozens of other factors.

Not if you don't have imagination.. Money is what it is all about otherwise.

Ooh, what are they?

With the current system, the US could annex every single country in south america, africa, and asia other than japan, I think. And no one could stop that. So i'm gonna go ahead and say that's an advantage.

Or you could bomb the USA...or you could gang up to stop America.

 

Anyway, as I already said, we should just nerf America and Japan to start with. America gets 2 Trillion and Japan gets 1.7 Trillion. Everything else stays the same.

 

(Doom, I like you system, by the way)

Ok, if no one is going to suggest anything else I am gonna start a poll.

 

Doom's System(correct me if I am wrong):

Countries with more money take longer to make more money

 

Archi's System:

The USA and Japan are nerfed to a reasonable level

 

Retech-Sere's System:

The USA ceases to exist and Canada takes over the land.

 

Hex's System:

We close the thread and move to the other Tip It Hegemony thread.

 

 

Any other suggestions in the next 20 minutes please.

The estimated time for making the Gunwalkers has lowered to 15.

 

Spending five billion a year I am creating a new weapon which will be ready in five years.

 

Atlas 1/5, I will have 150 atlas's by the end of the five years.

 

I think all secret things should be PMed to archi so people can't decide what they want after they've researched it.

 

Edit: my system is to keep things unequal and change the riles back to the old hegemony, with GDP and no other complicated systems.

I would either go with Archi's system or Doom's system. Leaning towards Doom's.

I have to say, Doom's seems the best in my opinion.

Vote away.

We dont actually need to do anything.

Yet again, adding stupid unrealistic fairness measures.

Retechs already done his thing, people don't want things to be like this.

 

And Archi, there was no problem with our old GDP system, why do we have to move to the more complicated IAG? It may not be what happens in real life, but in real life there's probably pages and pages of monetry issues, you said there was a flaw.

No-one complained!

everyone was happy.

 

And annexion, the systems confusing and unesceserry.

Yes. So if people agree they can vote that way.

The annexation system is simple. A person with half a brain could figure it out. It makes allot more sense than "I annex X amount of countries without any consiquences!"

You are kinda caught between the game being boring because you can't annex or fight anywhere and the game being boring because you have annexed and fought everywhere.

well im not doing this, sorrry to say. its gone... way to fast for me. sorry guys, i jsut cant deal with this anymore.

Anymore? You were never part of it..

 

By the way, to anybody looking for awesome anthems, I recommend something from Two Steps from Hell. The genre could literally be called "Monumentally Epic".

 

Speaking of which, Iranian Battle Anthem:

Well, more battle music really, since there are no lyrics.

Hehe, I showed those ones to you.

 

I'm not so much into half/um-developed countries and I want access to space, that leaves the US, Japan and Australia(I think) as the only ones not taken, considdering people wouldn't want me leading the country with the most reasearch capacity and that Australia's nature is [bleep]ed up enough without me trying to GM stuff that leaves only Japan.

 

The Æ is a norse letter, it is commonly used in Scandinavia it sounds like the a in ash or bad and looks like æ when not capital. Here are some random words with it:

Pære - pear

Æt - heritage

Trær - trees

Skjærm - screen

 

Æ (Lower case: æ) is a grapheme formed from the letters a and e. Originally a ligature representing a Latin diphthong, it has been promoted to the full status of a letter in the alphabets of some languages, including Danish and Norwegian. As a letter of the Old English alphabet, it was called æsc ("ash tree") after the Anglo-Saxon futhorc rune

Straight from wikipedia.

 

The ash is a saxon letter. It's used in Norway, but it didn't originate from there.

My vote for a system goes back to the GDP. Honestly, the only person who found it objectionable was Arch.

Random Fact: The term 'marathon' in modern context came from the legend of a Greek soldier, who, after the Battle of Marathon, ran all the way back to Athens to deliver news of the Greek victory, so that the city did not surrender to the Persians coming by sea if they managed to get there before the Greek army arrived.

I'm already 9 pages behind and you guys just started. I volunteer to be a 'puppet nation'. I love this game, but it's simply too time consuming for my schedule. SO to overcome this problem, I'm willing to split my reigns with someone so they can make executive decisions for me when I don't post enough. They also have the the responsibility of keeping me updated game wise if I fall too far behind. I'll be taking applications for this role, and who ever writes me the most compelling PM shall be declared winner of the honor. I'll try to be as unbias as possible, as over time I've gotten closer to some of you than others.

 

But, until we get that squared away, I'd like to make the following actions:

1) Open door policy

2) private banking

3) 2% tax hike for infrastructure

 

Negotiative diplomatic relations are open for discussion. But i recommend PMing me, as keeping up with this thread has already proven difficult

*Cough* Declare war on Belgium.

...why?

 

gonna have to present a better argument than that, my friend.

Because I'm pretty sure that Luxembourg only has one city. Not to mention that you won't be able to enjoy it.

 

We can probably work something out where you can get Belgium, though. That will at least give you enough territory so you aren't landlocked, thus allowing you to expand.

I didn't say it was Norwegian, I said it was of Norse origin, and Saxon was Norse too.

The Saxons (Latin: Saxones) were a confederation of Old Germanic tribes. Their modern-day descendants in Lower Saxony and Westphalia and other German states are considered ethnic Germans (the state of Sachsen is not inhabited by ethnic Saxons; the state of Sachsen-Anhalt though in its northern and western parts); those in the eastern Netherlands are considered to be ethnic Dutch; and those in Southern England ethnic English (see Anglo-Saxons). Their earliest known area of settlement is Northern Albingia, an area approximately that of modern Holstein.

Wikipedia, again.

 

No they weren't.
