SD.net's World (RAR!)

[WesFox13]

Here's a small map of my tiny island

Revel in it's crappiness! (I'm not the best artist in the world, ok?)

[Shroom Man 777]

The Shadow Empire does not care for your concerns and shall make a suggestion to shep that the FUNGAL AXIS be the first on our invasion list.

Shroomania expresses its disappointment in the petty posturings of the Shadow Empire and moves to begin unilateral military preparations with the constituent nations of the FUNGAL AXIS.

Shroomania will discuss recent events with the Fuck Yeah Treaty Organization, in light of the posturings of this wayward ally of the Shep.

you know this is the first "RAR" thats been really succesful since the infamous one that Spawned the republic of FY.

Normally during these things its usally SD.net on ONE island/nation/ whatever... and we spend all our time trying to figure out what to do, what techs to install, how to conuore the world.. And the other thing, is that its always on Earth, which we all know, and makes thinsg kinda boring..

But this, THIS is a whole WORLD of SD.net nations. Each one of us has our own little Empier, ready made army, ready made forces... Its really a hell of a thing to think about. We each of us get to be our own little Dictators, which is fuin in itself.

And more then all that, You get the snese that, unlike so many before, that if, just IF this one actually occured, and we WERE all wisked away to our own little Nations... it might NOT end in a massive pool of chos destruction and mayhem.

1-What do you do with your nation?
2-What happens to this world?

1) I'd turn my island nation into this world's equivalent to Switzerland as best I can and hope I'm not promptly invaded for doing so.
2) I'm starting to envision a united Earth government based on many of the posts in this thread.

Just as an update, Vympel would also be a "Mega Nation" as he is a Supermod. And while not part of the "Old Boys Network" exactly, my lot is in with the Mess and/or Senate (they haven't formally accepted our help, but the offer has been made). And Lonestar has also declared his intentions to be in the OBN

And obviously, you haven't read the other previous RAR threads; usually, I don't go all psychotic and start nuking people randomly; the only thread where I can remember doing that besides this one is the thread that the PRFY started in; where I just decided to nuke the middle east, because well, the ME deserves it.

Wasn't calling you out specifically (sorry if it came across that way) but in general this is how a lot of it goes. A bunch of people decide to either go on the warpath, run off on their own, or give up and die, depending on the scenario. The Mess decides to band together as a means of survival, and we stay out of the messy conflicts (where those erupt) and pick up the pieces afterward.

Sorry if our way is a little too rational for you.

The carrier's nice; but what really clinches it are the 20 or so fast attacks I have. They can pretty much shut off all internal commerce between island chains, etc.

Yeah, so I totally forgot about those. Whoops.

Still, if we put our DDGs, FFGs and SSKs to work, and allocate some of our "fighter jet" resources to S-3s and the like, we can work to deal with that threat.

I don't know offhand how uber Virginia-class SSNs are other than the US Navy's "latest and greatest" though.

Pffft. I've tried that for the last couple of ideas; it's time to try something fun.

Ok, how about this: you can go pick on those who nobody else really likes if you must (though it'd be nice if you spared the actual leaders and let them live; it'd be sad to have people that are real die, and it just sucks to be those who got created by the ROB because they're like action movie extras...sad, but true) but at least leave the rest of us alone.

It works on a practical level as hey, you guys have some firepower but then, so do we. So why waste everybody's hardware on pointless wars of aggression? Especially since you'll have to build up your transport shipping assets before you can really make good on it anyway.

Just a thought. As RedImperator said, we've just been given a pretty nice world where we could actually do some good for once (rather than being randomly plunked in the middle ages or given a bunch of SSDs for no apparent reason) and it'd be a real shame to turn it into a war-torn wasteland instead.

EDIT: Fixed a BBCode boo-boo.

[Losonti Tokash]

The Glorious People's Republican Democracy of Blasitification (or GPRDB) expresses its interest in becoming a member state of the Fungal Axis. We are intrigued by their depictions of cybernetic raptors with laser eyes and are eager to share in this technology.

[Mr. Coffee]

Well, now the PRFYNAFBTFC has ports to call home...

[Zixinus]

Zixinus: Deciding who to ally with

I want to be neutral regarding this warpath and not have my pretty little country nuked or bombed.

Althought, Hawkwing's and SiegeTank's persuit of ES@NR might I'd like to join, even with what little resources that can be offered.

I also would like to ally with RougeIce. Cause's he seems to be the only one that realizes just how fucking sweet this situation is.

That NOS Guy: (Small Nation) Intentions Unknown

Just as planned. No seriously, I'm part of the FYTO aka the little entente aka the booze & hookers front.

[DarthShady]

The Shadow Empire does not care for your concerns and shall make a suggestion to shep that the FUNGAL AXIS be the first on our invasion list.

Shroomania expresses its disappointment in the petty posturings of the Shadow Empire and moves to begin unilateral military preparations with the constituent nations of the FUNGAL AXIS.

Shroomania will discuss recent events with the Fuck Yeah Treaty Organization, in light of the posturings of this wayward ally of the Shep.

Considering that Shep has not formally accepted The Shadow Empire as an ally. I am forced to begin the training of special assassins which shall be used to assassinate the leaders of the FUNGAL AXIS.
I have also introduced marshal law and massive recruiting for the military.

A great number of new factories and shipyards for the production of war machines have been constructed. One of their first products shall be built from plans recently acquired by shadow agents.

[Marko Dash]

this RAR might be a little less bloody sense we really don't want to go around blowing each other up. we just like to have the capability to do so.

[Lonestar]

Because I am bored and enjoy making lists, I offer the following in the hopes of providing some information to those making alliances

Well, you screwed up then, because while I plan on sitting tight and not provoking anyone I will be engaged in the Old Boy's network(I was the first post in this thread to use that phrase, by the way) with regards to the Mess for security reasons.

I note that since everyone has the same class of naval vessels it'll be childs play to drive up to the coast in an unmarked DDG and lob some TLAMs at a target, then scoot off.

[Tiriol]

Tiriol (Tiny Nation) Pursuing alliance with Shep

False, since I expressed the desire to seek shelter FROM the trigger-happy megalomaniacs like Shep.

In reality (as Simplicus has already mentioned) geogprahy AND level of natural resources would greatly affect these alliances and also varying technology levels.

I, myself, would rather seek some level-headed and moderate assistance than tying myself to perhaps more powerful, but less rational nation or coalition. So if The Mess would decide to form a military coalition, my nation would humbly seek acceptance in rather the same way as Iceland in NATO or Naboo in Star Wars. Considering that my people's fate would rest on the fact that we would be either ignored, protected enough or influential enough that attacking Tiriola would be futile, I'd say that diplomacy and (if needed) economical warfare are the way to go - perhaps even disregarding economic warfare. My admittedly tiny army would be just a little better than an expanded Royal Guard, so military strength would be dismal.

It is my suggestion that the little nations would band together, if geography allows it, to form a sort of League of Non-Aligned Nations (like in Babylon 5) to better protect our citizens and as unified front have SOME political and even military and economic power. Furthermore, if the Senators truly get such large nations, then a sort of re-inforced UN might be created based on their strength.

Sadly, Tiriola will remain unseen, oft ignored and usually timid and rather weak. But hopefully diplomatic influence can grow and by concentrating on making the nation healthy, strong and open, we can survive, grow and peacefully co-exist in this strange world. The King has spoken, now may His Majesty's will be done.

Count the NeoGoombas of the Kingdom of Republicburgstatesville in the FUNGAL AXIS. And there is Vanasia and Triolia. Along with the WesFox Republic of Vulpesia.

The NeoGoombas of the Kingdom of Republicburgstatesville has been accepted into the FUNGAL AXIS alongside the Losonti Tokash's Glorious People's Republican Democracy of Blasitification.

In the spirit of mutual defense, Shroomania shall commence the exportation of Cyborg Dinosaur Deriviative Weapons Platform to her allies in the FUNGAL AXIS and perhaps also her allies in the Fuck Yeah Treaty Organization, should they deem Cyborg Dinosaurs a worthy endevour alongside booze and babes.

The harbors of Shroomania will be open to the brave crewmen of Taskforce Cuntpuncher, who has Shroomanians proudly serving with the men and women of FYTO!


Darth Shady of the Shadow Empire, your warrantless aggression, provocations, and threats to Shroomania and her allies in the FUNGAL AXIS forces Shroomania to propose the imposition of sanctions and blockades on your rogue nation!

Your despotism and tyranny shall lead your country to ruin!

Thought occurs to me that the Christians of this board, while a minority, would form a rather benevolent organization, universal Church of Christ or similar, or maybe a knightly organization around Knights Astrum Glades and Mother Superior LadyTevar would be a natural choice for leadership. May she guide us wisely, benevolently and with God's grace.

Shroom Man 777 I emperor Shady will not cover before your threats. My soldiers are ready to defend me to the last man. My newly built war machines shall crush your pathetic forces and my assassins shall bring swift death to you and your allies.

I hereby call to all of you Ruthless Genocidal Warmongers to assist me in the elimination of Shroom Man 777 and his FUNGAL AXIS lackeys.
Victory shall be ours, no matter the cost.

LadyT (Mister T?!) would be the Dalai Lama, John Paul II, Mother Theresa, and Princess D all in one. Minus all of their crappy bad aspects. And maybe a hint of the Queen of England too!

Shroomania would be privileged to have the Lady Tevar of the Astrum Glades to lead the spiritualities of the nation's religious citizens.

[Beowulf]

The Old Boy Network is the Mess. And I'm a Mod, not a Senator. The Senate forms a rather insanely powerful block if taken as a whole, though.

29 Large nations
2 Mega nations

And that doesn't count the Mods.

People of the world (of SDN), witness here the antagonistic acts of the Shadow Empire and its despot, Emperor Shady. The attempts to assassinate the good leader of Shroomania, the aggression against the peaceful nations of the FUNGAL AXIS. How this 'Emperor' Shady declared his intentions of hostility against others and - upon hearing the concerns voiced by Shroomania on behalf of her peaceful allies - how his aggression have now provoke Shroomania to regretfully declare a state of war against the Shadow Empire to depose their despot and liberate their people!

Shroom Man 777: 8301


In response to the Shadow Empire's pathetic and failed assassination attempts on Shroom the Seven Hundred Seventy Seventh, Shroomania has sent a task force of destroyers. The subsequent cruise missile strikes have decimated the Shadow "Empire's" navy and airforce composed of patrol boats and helicopters as well as key government buildings, sparing the capitol building of "Emperor" Shady.

Will the Emperor Shady surrender gracefully? Or will Shroomania and her allies in the FUNGAL AXIS be forced to cause more unneeded destruction due to the impudent insolence of Emperor Shady? The only casualties in this war will be the citizens of the Shadow Empire, and if the Emperor is truly a kind leader, then he will accept the terms offered by Shroomania and the FUNGAL AXIS. Shroomania and her allies do not wish a continuation of violence.

Terms include the cessation of hostilities, and a formal apology from the Emperor Shady to all the leaders of the world. The Emperor Shady will be allowed to continue his reign, on the condition that the Shadow Empire become an open harbor for the FUNGAL AXIS and all the nations of the Fuck Yeah Treaty Organization in their search for booze and babes.

Shroomania and her people are generous and forgiving, as are her allies in the FUNGAL AXIS and the Fuck Yeah Treaty Organization.

Shroom the Seven Hundred Seventy Seventh extends the hand of friendship to the people of the Shadow Empire.



The Kind Lady Tevar of the Astrum Glades condemns Emperor Shady's uncalled for actions and Christians all over the world of SDN are praying for peace and the end of the first-ever shooting war of the world.

[DarthShady]

I Emperor Shady of The Shadow Empire hereby surrender to the mighty Shroom and offer my sincere apology to him and his allies of the FUNGAL AXIS and all the nations of the Fuck Yeah Treaty Organization.
I also declare that all ports of the Shadow Empire are now open for the use of Shroom and his allies.
I accept Shroom man's offer of friendship and would formally like to ask that The Shadow Empire join the FUNGAL AXIS and the Fuck Yeah Treaty Organization.
I would also like to apologize to all the people who suffered in this war, and i promise to be a better ruler from now on.
As a sign of good will i now offer to Shroom Man and his allies my personal stash of booze and the finest babes of the Shadow Empire.

[Shroom Man 777]

Hooray!

Shroomania will nonetheless remain a state of readiness and preparedness, due to recent events, the security of Shroomania and her new allies in the FUNGAL AXIS is a tantamount concern.

We are nonetheless greatly pleased to see the situation with the Shadow Empire diffused with minimal loss of life and property.

However, recent events bring light to an increasingly disturbing trend in the world of SDnet. The threat of grave misunderstandings between nations leading to hasty and unwarranted acts that may impinge upon the relations of countries and peoples is a danger faced by all nations - both the large and prosperous powers and the small and nascent nations of SDnet.

Shroomania hopes to lead her allies in an international effort to ease global tensions between nations, hopefully with the blessing of friends in the FYTO.

We are all people who seek truth, freedom, justice, a lot of booze and really hot babes!

The Technoutopian Confederation will divert all available resources to Mad Science, which for the purposes of this RAR I define as trying to build as many of the insane superweapons and superplanes from the Ace Combat series as possible.

The Grand Duchy of Vanaheim approves of this measure and will support the construction of Excalibur and Stonehenge type devices to protect it's aerospace from any large spaceborne rocks. In return, we offer the use of our universities for your mad scientists to further their knowledge in the field of insane science.
