[Beowulf]

He should've really been executed, failing that: assassinated. Yeah, that's my inner evil voice speaking.

Right. My nation, my decisions. I'm a big softie, and decided he could be reformed by not being a ruling position. Also note: I removed his capability to do that again by integrating his forces with mine, and removing them from the control of the Governor of Tian Jiao.

[CmdrWilkens]

Yeah. Beo summarizes it perfectly.

Also, Stas, keep these things to yourself. This is not a referendum for you to involve your opinion in. It's up to Beowulf.

Relax dude its OOC where we can talk about the joyous end of the world (e.g. PeZook and I talking about a gigantic MESSvFUN/preCATO war and the destruction it would bring), or the elemination of figures standing between you and political or diplomatic advantage.

It's cool. I think things like that are fun. I just don't like Stas sticking his big red beak in my business.

[Beowulf]

Also, if you lost your nation in-game due to it's destruction, or your removal as a ruler, I guess that's tough luck.

STGODs have always had the option of rejoining later on. Usually with the penalty of having another starting nation, not a nation that's gone through all the increases from warring or build up in prelude to war. Another option is getting someone to give you their nation (which is what Klavo did).

[Czechmate]

Beo has suggested, on AIM, that I make a nation based on the exiled Eastchester family. I think it's an interesting idea. And before Stas opens his gods-damned mouth again, I have learned a fair bit of restraint under Beo's tutelage and am quite unlikely to nuke anyone.

Does anyone (who is not Stas) know if Misteria (Pollux's country) actually exists, or if it just disappeared into limbo? I'd like to use that island chain if it is available. Otherwise, I'll pick another cluster of islands from amongst the archipelagos north of Velaria.

Haw-haw-haooo. Relax man, I'm retired.

[Czechmate]

You just give off...bad vibes. Even in your fuhrerdiktatbunker. But I will lay this to rest if you do the same.

Anyhow. I'm planning to turn Misteria into the Royal Dominion of Amako, since Pollux seems to have disappeared. If anyone has a good reason to object, I'm all ears. My primary reason for taking Misteria is simply that it has a nice map I can use, instead of having to make one from scratch based on one of the Pacific island chains above Velaria.

[Steve]

I object, there are other island chains in the North Pacific you can use anyway.

[Czechmate]

I object, there are other island chains in the North Pacific you can use anyway.

EDITED: Okay, and what is your reasoning other than "I object, you can't do that"?

[Steve]

Because Misteria has already been involved in events in the STGOD (Like San Dorado showing off it's forces in taking the exiled Tsar prisoner) and I dislike retconning?

Because I find it completely ridiculous to have a land named one way, with one cultural leaning, then turn around and name it something completely different (for the same reason I opposed Zablorg taking over al-Ghazzara and calling it "Ford Prefect's Country" with an entirely different background than the region would mandate)?

Because Pollux might want to return eventually?

Because I think we have enough unclaimed, undefined territories of that size already that I think should be filled in first?

Consider them in any order you want.

[Czechmate]

That is proper reasoning. I will therefore choose a different island chain.

[Steve]

[Czechmate]

i was thinking of the one due north of Tanvarika.

[Ryan Thunder]

Random idea for my air defense; a nuclear-powered blended wing body aircraft about the size of one of these bastards, with its own point-defense and submarine-torpedo-style "missile tubes". It'd have its own targeting radar and carry, at a guess, some 50-60 Phoenix-equivalent missiles. Or perhaps a proportionally smaller number of Genie ( ! ) equivalent missiles with homing packages.

It's probably big enough to fit it all in there, I'm just wondering if it's worth the trouble to build one or two of them.

[K. A. Pital]

Something like this? Nah, too large and would never fly with real physics.

Like this maybe?

The UCSR could possibly sell you the plans for that... nuclear powered flying wing, the M-57.

[Czechmate]

I have that game, and that is a damn sexy Su-33 paintscheme. Pity they're the badguys.

[Ryan Thunder]

I suppose. I have a feeling that that's quite a bit larger than what I had in mind, though...

Not to mention; what's the deal with that ridiculous bay underneath it? Is that one of those retarded airborne aircraft carriers?

What's it got and what's it worth?

It would be cooler for the Crimsons to make use of the Yellow Squadron, mangs.

Shroomania already has the (I)S.A.F.



EDIT:

PEZOOK: What's the status of our Moonbeam Madness, anywhoo?

[RogueIce]

Because Pollux might want to return eventually?

I seem to recall reading somewhere that he was banned, but I can't remember and Parting Shots doesn't have anything. Maybe Beo as a mod would know something?

[PeZook]

Shroom, all I have to do is find a little time to write it

Perhaps today, probably tomorrow.

[RogueIce]

So I go to Baerne, trust you with my secret travel plans, and then you want to join CATO without even considering the MESS (yes we accept people outside the usergroup, FYI)?

This makes me sad...

[Shroom Man 777]

he must be afraids to contracts the GEOSTIGMA

You should totally go One-Winged Angel on his ass!

Hey RogueIce, when I end up in your place, what should I talks to you abouts? CATO-Shinran friendships regarding Japanistan?

How about some joint naval exercises? Shroomania is pretty tight with Canissia, all things considered.

[RogueIce]

I wasn't that big a fan of Advent Children, you know.

Only if I get the music, too.

I suppose that works. Maybe some other stuff, too. You'll find out when we meet up. Assuming my schedule doesn't make me vanish or something.

[Shroom Man 777]

I was totally intending to use Shinra's pictures in Advent Children, particularly with him under the robes on the wheelchair, when I go over there.

Like how Arik was Ozymandias! IT WAS TOTALLY APPROPRIATE!

The One Winged Angel Sephiroth Theme must totally be Shinra's national anthem.

[RogueIce]

But...why? There's no reason for me to be in a wheelchair, much less covered in robes. And despite the name I don't really look like the character. Though I do sport the suit from time to time.

Already have one
