Siege is my buddy and I'm protecting him! Goddamn, conflicting ideologies and interests!
But Siege says that he's not going to be a global dick, not like Shep and Skim. I'm sure his crime-infested city would be better suited for more interesting 'personal stories' like:
The hero San Dorado needs, not the hero San Dorado deserves.
We have to chase him, because he can take it.
He's not a hero. He's a silent guardian.
He is... The Dark Shroom!

That sounds like a pretty spiffy idea to me. "Keeping the natives down" could be our motto . Although since I'm a corporate state I'm still going to sell tons of weaponry to whoever wants to buy it...
By the way, wasn't the basic idea of your state that you are constantly experiencing urban unrest or something similar? That would certainly make living nearby interesting.
Yeah, San Dorado is a hybrid of a Dredd-style megacity and a deep noir version of New York. I already have the corporate security, corruption, constant riots and an influential mafia, the occasional rocket attack by militias from a neighboring shithole country would fit quite handsomely .
(Hell I wouldn't be surprised if someone in San Dorado sold them the rockets they shoot at San Dorado... It's just that kind of place...)
Well our motto shouldn't be oppress thy neighbor per se, just that we are local and while other people will want to do things with the third world area, they are just visiting, we have to live there. So only our fucked up arming militia schemes are allowed and no one else’s !

"The rifle itself has no moral stature, since it has no will of its own. Naturally, it may be used by evil men for evil purposes, but there are more good men than evil, and while the latter cannot be persuaded to the path of righteousness by propaganda, they can certainly be corrected by good men with rifles."

M3 - Rabbit Fever - Tularemia. Weaponized by US as Agent UL in the M143 bomblet. Fatality rate of 40-60%. Rate of Action 3 days, with duration of 1-3 weeks (treated) and 2-3 months (untreated). Sensitive to sunlight and loses virulence over time. Later reclassified as Agent TT (Wet Type) and Agent ZZ (Dry Type).
By the way, the classification system goes up to like 200+

Ok.... that means we will have to cart out the nukes when you start developing it.

I won't have all of them. There will be several weapons in the B and C categories which I will have stockpiled intensively. As for the others; you need something to designate internal developments...

In case you haven't noticed, that's the internal project designation for the bomb program. Doesn't mean I actually have it; because otherwise
N300 - Multi-Gigaton Doomsday Device, Buried under mountain; has multi-thousand ton cobalt jacket.
N301 - Orbiting Space Station armed with dozens of nukes. Known as Death Star.
N302 - Manned Lunar Outpost armed with dozens of missiles for last strike capability.
I'd already have those

With Shep's declarations, I could see the whole world preemptively declaring war on him as soon as the game starts . In this world, the neocons who say we need regime change in Shepnukistan are most likely right .
While that might be a bit much, I can certainly say most people are going to have a much lower tolerance for bullshit this time around. So if someone drops WMD's all over the place without entering negotiations at all, we can expect that person to be hit by most other nations.
Say, Shep, will your biochemical weapons be for sale?
Anyway, considering the way we seem to be heading right now I'll be sure to invest in an oversized multi-layered air defence system. Can't have people gassing my cities -- I don't have anything else!
Siegey, it wouldn't do if Big Shroomania finds Little San Dorado getting bioweapons from its Best Friend Forever, Shepistan

Something about Libertarianism always bothered me. Then one day, I realized what it was:
Libertarian philosophy can be boiled down to the phrase, "Work Will Make You Free."
In Libertarianism, there is no Government, so the Bosses are free to exploit the Workers.
In Communism, there is no Government, so the Workers are free to exploit the Bosses.
So in Libertarianism, man exploits man, but in Communism, its the other way around! If all you want to do is have some harmless, mindless fun, go H3RE INST3ADZ0RZ!! Grrr! Fight my Brute, you pansy!

Hey, why don't we do just that?
No need for regime change, though...

Yeah, it wouldn't do at all. How do you like your food imports, Siege?
