Phew, people. You're giving the RT topographists a run for their money 
Next new participant, and we're going up to 1.3.0. meaning there's over 20 sovereign states (not counting the partitioned and occupied ones).

Heavy rioting reported in the southern part of Syndromia
Angry mobs demanding the release of known pirate leader Stanford Brant have clashed with LUN peacekeepers today when peaceful protests turned violent.
Continuing occupation of Syndromia has led to fragmentation of its internal politics ; Various faction now try to secure their positions in the future of the island nation, and some turn to violence rather than reconstruction efforts.
One of these faction were Brant's pirates. The charismatic ex-businessman has taken upon himself to, as he put it, "create a new and free Syndromia". Avid anarchist, Brant believed that foreign governments are choking Syndromia's recovery and pillaging the country,especially after the II Republic Of PeZookia introduced the Student Immigration Act, which is perceived by some as an attemp to drain the intellectual elite from the island.
His pirates have pillages international aid ships and occasionally attacked government forces ; However, his charisma has earned him quite a following in Southern and Central Syndromia.
He was captured recently by Shroomian forces, causing unrest amongst some Syndromians. Rioting in the south of the island is one result of this development.
Cars were being set on fire, store windows were smashed and perceived collaborators assaulted as LUN peacekeepers struggled to keep the peace. Currently there are no news on any dead or injured persons, but they can be expected later on.
[figured we needed a couple problems to go with the whole piracy angle

It suddenly struck me that that tiny pea, pretty and blue, was the Earth. I put up my thumb and shut one eye, and my thumb blotted out the planet Earth. I didn't feel like a giant. I felt very, very small.

NEWSFLASH:
Covered in Dirt and waving a shovel around, the Lord High CEO has annouced the design of a New Massive Battleship to act as Watchdog for Crossroadia as well as a National Symbol of the nations Power.
The Ship, codenamed "Studibaker" is only in the Design stages thus far, but is being putforth as a long term Goal for the Great Nation. Construction of the ship itself will most likely be put off untill the Mssive CCCT Progect is finished:
================
Über battleship Stats
Basic Statistics:
251,210 Tonnes, 255,265 Tonnes Fully Loaded
Length
2176 Feet
Beam
265 Feet
Power plant/Propulsion:
2 Nuclear Reactors, 8 MATS Pods and 2 Hydro Thrusters
Max 850,000 Horsepower
===========================
Weapon Systems:
“Screecher Turrets”
The primary aspect of this weapon system is a 400lb Depleted Uranium
Shell. The shell has a Scram-Jet Jacket built into it so, once fired from
the 20" Cannon, The Scram-Jet activates allowing it to do one of two
options.
#1: Using a 'Solid' Uranium Shell, The Scram-Jet Fires early, adding its
speed to the speed from cannon shot, turning it into a fearsome Kinetic
Energy Weapon that can easily tear into other ships.
#2: Using a 'Warhead' Half Uranium Shell, The Scram-Jet waits until the
initial arch from the Cannon shot begins to derad, then fires. This wil
l almost Double the effective range of the shot, giving the opportunity to
Bombard targets well out of range of any conventional counter attack.
===========================
Arsenal Multi Missile System:
The AMM system is a large sophisticated Missile system that can contain
500 missiles and 3 ICBM. The System is located under a massive
protective Dome on the prow of the ship. When activated, the dome
splits and retracts allowing the missiles to fire. The AMM system is
specifically designed for extreme long-range combat and as a first strike
against oncoming naval forces.
Mini Missile Turret System:
Designed for anti-air and anti-bomber combat. Turret mounted Missile
pods with 16 fast firing guided warhead, fires in volleys of two.
===========================
On Anti-Missile Systems:
The KASHTAN Air Defence Gun/Missile System is intended to provide self-
defence for surface ships against high precision weapons (anti-ship and
anti-radar missiles, air bombs), fixed and rotary wing aircraft, as well as
to engage small sea and coastal targets.
The system is developed as a modular structure comprising a command
module and combat modules (from one to six, depending on ship
displacement). The command module ensures IFF procedures, target
acquisition and designation, and data generation for gun/missile fire.
The combat module comprises a gun/missile mount; radar and optical
control systems, a computing system, and power supply system. The
integrated multi-channel control system provides simultaneous multi-
target tracking in the radar and TV-optical modes. The firing turret
mounts two blocks of GSh-30K six-barrel automatic guns with link less
feeding system and autonomous evaporation-type cooling system, and
two SAM clusters.
The system also includes storing and reloading system to keep 32 SAMs
in container-launchers in ship's under-deck spaces. Reloading time for a
cluster of four SAMs does not exceed 1.5 min.
The KASHTAN system can be installed on ships with displacement greater
than 400 t.
Basic Characteristics
===========================
Engagement zone range, km:
Missiles: 1.5 ... 8
Guns: 0.5 ...1.5
Altitude, m from: 5 to 4,000
Maximum target speed,: m/s 600
Kill probability: 0.96 ... 0.98
Number of targets engaged simultaneously: up to 6
Rate of gun fire, rds/min: 10,000 ... 12,000
Cartridge types: 30 mm with HE-Frag and Frag-T projectiles
===========================
Addition Systems
Mobile Aquatic Tug Submarine or
M.A.T.S.
These are basically, Immensely powerful underwater tugs attached by
rotatable gimbals to the ships hull. The ship has eight MATS that are all
independently controlled by computer. The MATS in theory could let the
Massive Edselon rotate a complete 360 in a virtual zero turning radius.

If the thing is ever constructed... Remember, Crossroadia enjoys putting forth Massive progects to enhance it's view in the International scene, the fact that such a beast could easily be dispactched with a single nuke is of course a large downside.

[OOC] I propose to all SD Nations the following rules of international war conduct:
- attacking another nation without a declaration of war (surprise attack post) is to be punished immediately by the relevant Military Treaty (generally most nations fall into one, so there's little issues here)
- attacking a nation should be done with a 1 real day private (PM) declaration of war to the Nation Leader, to give the opposing party the chance to respond - the maximum wait is 3 days, in case no reply, the nation's government is on hiatus for the game, possibly
- after the private declaration matters have been settled between attacker and attacked, a formal war declaration is issued in the thread, and the war starts!
This is to avoid problems with attacking nations that are inactive, or worse yet attacking an active nation and writing fort a war history before the other party can respond.
The fast assembly of the Zoria Multinational Defense Force was done in a legal mishmash when rules were not yet established, but henceforth we need to set at least this basic rule - all other affairs are more easily settled between members.[/OOC]

I humbly accept the Red Technocracy's offer. However "Frostwolf INC." uses the standard OS that is being used by most of the world so far in their computers in order to Universalize their product. However they are able to put in alternate Operating Systems or Open Source systems if a customer requests it.Stas Bush wrote:The Red Technocracy proposes to lay fiberoptic cables to the Republic of Vulpesia and give some of our supermassive computer servers for gaming, as well as places an order for several thousand high-powered computer units for our abroad contingents which cannot use the Standard RT Network Terminal Agent and actually need PCs. We would pay 5,000 dollars for each top notch computer for our ~100,000 contingent, resulting in a 500 million USD offer. Strike deal?
The Red Technocracy also wants to know if Vulpesia allows for open-source systems installed on it's personal computers, or develops such systems itself. The Red Technocracy is decisively against any proprietary software, especially for it's military installations where security is paramount.

Standard STGOD policy is that you don't hit someone who's not active, and you must give the opposition a post to react before you continue, preventing snowballs where all the action is by one alliance, and a nation is gone within a day, because the opposing force decided to have a life that day. This can be modified if both parties, say, get on AIM, and hash out what happens.Stas Bush wrote:[OOC] I propose to all SD Nations the following rules of international war conduct:

I'm also adding some more info about my nation:
Power Generation:
Nuclear: 60%
Solar: 25%
Wind: 5%
Geothermal: 10%
Areas of intrest:
Mt. Helios; a 3,421 foot tall sheild volcano that is active. Due to it's unique properties the lava that is oozing down fron it's caldera is very slow running only moving at a rate of 3 cm per year. However the risk of a major eruption is still viable so the citezens of the nation know to evacuate their villages and towns to the main cities in case of an eruption. Geological history shows that a majority of the time during an eruption the lava just oozes out at a much faster rage than normal making the volcano grow by about 2 feet in height and 15 feet wider. Geothermal Power plants are located near by the volcano where there are underwater hot springs which provide the heat necessary to generate the electricity.
Feros Depression: A desert area on the island where the land dips down about 121 feet below sea level. Some believe it's a small crater created when a small asteroid crashed into the Island millions years ago creating the depression however erosion has softened the crater into a sandy depression. This location is also where a majority of the solar panels giving Vulpesia it's Solar energy are located.

Mt. Helios; a 3,421 foot tall sheild volcano that is active. Due to it's unique properties the lava that is oozing down fron it's caldera is very slow running only moving at a rate of 3 cm per year. However the risk of a major eruption is still viable so the citezens of the nation know to evacuate their villages and towns to the main cities in case of an eruption. Geological history shows that a majority of the time during an eruption the lava just oozes out at a much faster rage than normal making the volcano grow by about 2 feet in height and 15 feet wider.

Additionally, since we have alliances and such, if you're going to be gone for awhile then you can probably have one of your allies "take over" to direct your defense, as well as using their own nation to assist of course. For example, If Brungardt is unavailable due to RL concerns, he's largely setting it up so that I'd pretty much be able to help him out and take over, if needed.Beowulf wrote:Standard STGOD policy is that you don't hit someone who's not active, and you must give the opposition a post to react before you continue, preventing snowballs where all the action is by one alliance, and a nation is gone within a day, because the opposing force decided to have a life that day. This can be modified if both parties, say, get on AIM, and hash out what happens.
Also as an FYI Stas, if Brungardt does get a map up, his nation would be fairly close to mine. Since he's only a Principality it shouldn't be too much of a hassle I hope.

Also, as for the weapons and technology inspectors, remember our tech level is pretty much what we have today:
EDIT: This can also go for building programs too, of course, WRT time taken to construct.
While we can certainly try and advance, we shouldn't get too far out there. Especially since I don't think we've even existed for a year yet.Technology level is basically that of modern day earth, with plenty of fossil fuels.

well since the BR's military is in it's self a style over substance fallacy. (the last time they fought a real war, they complained that the other side wasn't fallowing the script). We do have one bright side to our century+ experience in trying to make an airship a feasable military platform. We currently do have command/control Radar/EW platform Blimps. capable of searching the surface of the seas, and detecting magnetic anomalies rather well.Shroom Man 777 wrote:@ Stas: Besides, you've got the Supercomputer AI
The Shroomanian Naval Authorities regrettably announce that the II Republican Transport Ship Gdynia has not yet been found and though the outlook is dim, our sailors stand by their Republican allies in the continuation of search and rescue efforts.
Yes, the Emporer of Californication has legislated power to ignore laws of physics in his pronauncements. That just doesn't mean that they work.

depiction of the bear republic as the Spanish/Drake originally had it on their maps.
battle symbol of the BR.
so where are we on the map?
note since our entire military is mostly used making action and sci-fi movies as training/cost reduction, our body armour is the same stuff featured in Starship troopers (movie)/ Firefly (TV) with the most shitty futurisitic small arms. (P90s) Also our jets and helos all look like ones that have appeared in certain movies/TV shows in the past...
