That bottom line is 500km, not 5000km....

It might've been PeZook's version of the final map that had the scale.

Yes, this map has 5000km on it.

Edit, wrong image, oops.

Ahh! That's still to the same scale, though.

Eh, my guys will still keep their masks, and the reports of "low-flying Japanistani aircraft" will be considered Bad Intel. But since my guys would have masks, etc, anyway, it doesn't change much.

Skimmer, any reply to my diplomatic overture?

I did put the An-2 crop dusters right in my order of battle, flown by the glorious child pilots of the Youth Air Corps to aid the obedient farmer in his service to the Emperor! Also used mustard gas New Sumatran swamps on weekends, and dispense LSD and BZ for special occasions like welcoming paratroopers onto the continent of doom.

BZ will penetrate the skin like nerve gas , but that’s going to take higher concentrations then inhaled vapor to produce strong effects.

Skimmer, any reply to my diplomatic overture?

Yes.. but give me a bit to get something up on the fate of Soyu.

I did go delete that gas attack post BTW.

EDIT: I have an excellent corvette for littoral patrol and operations. Maybe Shroomania and Canissia should make a deal?

This will be acceptable.

I will be adding 10 LSTs to my OOB, BTW.

Here's what I figured out my Navy should look like.

Basically that's the USSR Navy Buildup program until 2005, with a little more standartization.

I'm lacking in submarines (the figure is more like the number of subs for the USA), but those are new Soviet types and I am focusing on making more patrols with what I have, instead of having shitloads of subs, but a very low patrol intensity per sub.

With various very small-tonnage patrol boats and aux ships not included here and exempt from the list Coyote made, my total navy should number around 1400 vessels, of them around 300 being fairly huge surface combat ships.

Army and Airforce will follow. Help still appreciated.

Oh... and how do we continue the FUN Conference? So much shit is happening...

Shep, have you descended to petty vandalism and destruction of foreign property?

Think about that for a moment. I tested (in a deniable manner), a weapons system that can do tons of thigns like tap underwater cables, cut them, et etc. For all you know, I might have already cut one of your major underwater landlines open and cross-connected a data recorder....

I already have been thinking of the strategic problems.

But more to the bloody point, could you possibly go and do a test else where instead of destroying something that will have to be paid for by someone else?

I have a black belt in Jew Jitsu (not really), and so I can do counters and shit very effectively.

Please do so! I would like to see some stuff about SHROOMANIAN SECRET AGENTS going by codenames of SOLID SHROOM and stuff walking around Shepistan and doing, shit and things, mang!

EDIT: YES! Stratellite! YES! Chucky!

I was referring to relocating your embassy to a (disused) maximum security prison in the middle of the desert.

And giving your embassy staff a bunch of (super car) Volkswagens.

Oh, and the embassy is really nice though - it might look like a prison from the outside, but we've really decorated and refurbished the interiors. It'll be really cozy, and spacious, and expect a lot of pink!

(Please don't fuck up my embassy. PeZook and other folks can, like, totally still do their SIGINT shit and secret agent Kulinsky stuff thanks to FUN passports and the Shroomanian embassy)

Mang.

That was nice. I now have essentially a literal fortress.

And I get super cars! Mang, whoever said being an international dickwad didn't pay off was full of shit.

As for the Shroomy embassy, well, worst that happens is perhaps the parking enforcement people change the signs outside your embassy so that parking there becomes a nightmarish experience with shifting and rotating parking times and limits.

Shroom Man 777 · Post by **Shroom Man 777** » 2008-08-27 04:54am

Your embassy gets to be in the middle of nowhere, and that's what's most important!

As an added benefit, the SAF can now bomb it without endangering civilians

Shroom, I took the liberty of declaring some of the stuff we planned between us two. Of course, it's a bunch of articles in the NMJ, which means it can still be modified and/or dismissed by the moderator if she doesn't like something.

Shroom Man 777 · Post by **Shroom Man 777** » 2008-08-27 05:19am

It's okay - thinking up this stuff is hard for my brain, anyway.

PeZook, next week and next-next week I will be off to the provinces to do nursing stuff - and I will not have any internet connections. Can I entrust you with Shroomania? Please?

You can share the work load with Coyote!

Thanks, mang!

And ZOR: You can't know that Shep was the one who disconnected the Shroomcable. How would Zoria know?

Where IS the Fourth Continent, anyway? Is it near Zoria? Which one is the Fourth Continent? Shepistan OD? MESSmerica?

EDIT:

Also, my Stephen Hawking also happens to be Stephen King.

He smiles!

He scowls!

He is Stephen Shroom-King!

Erm, PeZook, Hydrofoils are the worst possible platforms for ASW, chiefly because they are bloody noisy.

As for missiles, I and Stas are jointly working on some cool stuff to exceed even the P-800 missiles.
