Shepnukistan isn't interested in the carriers either. We're just happy with our three carriers as it is.

Targets?
Pleasure barge?
I know your not interested, but try and at least give the impression that you have diabolic plans if people don't buy the ships I'm planning on cutting.

You can always scuttle the ships...

MKSheppard · Post by **MKSheppard** » 2008-05-26 09:33pm

Oh okay, we're interested in buying them for our war reserve fleet. Our people will contact you at five.

Will the fishs pay me for the... 910 million... 1billion 1.6 billion, 9 billion... add it all up to... roughly 12.51 billion dollars worth of ships I want to dump?

No blowing up bad, selling on black market good!

(Note I'm only expecting to make back around 5.5 billion at most, all that is for brand new ships)

*Edit
Eviler Sheppard, Eviler plans, like you want to load the carrier chock full of Puppys and Orphans then set it on fire while roasting marshmallows off the flames, evil plans make good sales for me.

Maybe we could buy the carriers. But if only the FUN gets to pay them in combine. Or if we get Bear to pay for it

Our plans are EVILLER than that. We plan to fill it with adorable little pugs and then set it on fire, and roast orphans like marshmallows.

Okay, clarified NEverhood's status a bit more. We now can have a Free Tibe---err Free Neverhood! movement! now with twice as much kitsch!

MKSheppard · Post by **MKSheppard** » 2008-05-26 10:31pm

And remember; you cannot be TOO blatantly obvious - unlike Libertopia; there is a strong central government in the region, and it's got nukes mang!

Well Mr. Bean, as you say you are now seling ships on the Black Market, Alendria would pobably wish to acquire 3-5 frigates if they could, to deal ewith the pirates and whatnot. Hell in the past pirates have had frigates themselves!

MKSheppard · Post by **MKSheppard** » 2008-05-27 12:28am

In case you haven't noticed; I'm borrowing heavily from Chinese COIN strategy; my long term plan is to build Neverhood into the China of this world; with NPCC-owned factories employing tens of thousands of people, and most of the profits from selling cheap Happy meal toys to the rest of the world used to fund the PAP's counter-insurgency campaign.

Post by **The Yosemite Bear** » 2008-05-27 12:35am

currently working on getting my system back up to 100%

oh and "Lillith" is a "Gallelao type probe, that should arrive at Yewah 15 years after launch.

Post by **K. A. Pital** » 2008-05-27 12:36am

Bwahaha. False reporting

Neverhood was 1st world just like most nations are; it's not Libertia. So you either really badly ravaged it (as well as created a truly gigantic training range which of course raised suspicions of even-present "tar reporters"

) or the situation is far off from what Shepnukistan's public releases point us to

Post by **Mr Bean** » 2008-05-27 12:39am

Black market is such a strong word, I prefer "international arms market"

Speaking of which final list of ships I'm offering.
I have(had)
3 Nimitz-class CVNs: HMS: Audacity, HMS:Valor, HMS: Triumph
16 Ticonderoga CG
30 Arleigh Burke-class Destroyers
50 Halifax Class Frigates
14 -Virginia class Submarines

I have(had)
Three Fleet's and a Task Force
South Seas Fleet
HMS Triumph (Nimitz)
3 Ticonderoga CG
6 Arleigh Burke-class Destroyers
14 Halifax Class Frigates

North Ocean Fleet
HMS Audacity (Nimitz)
4 Ticonderoga CG
8 Arleigh Burke-class Destroyers
8 Halifax Class Frigates

Home Fleet
HMS:Valor (Nimitz)
8 Ticonderoga CG
12 Arleigh Burke-class Destroyers
20 Halifax Class Frigates

Plus Task Force Zoro which had a Ticondergoa, four destroyers and eight Frigates.
Minus the ten I've already sold that gives me fifty Frigates. Time for a force-rebalance

North Sea Fleet
3 Ticonderoga CG
6 Arleigh Burke-class Destroyers
10 Halifax Class Frigates

South Seas Fleet
3 Ticonderoga CG
6 Arleigh Burke-class Destroyers
10 Halifax Class Frigates

Home Fleet
HMS:Valor (Nimitz)
6 Ticonderoga CG
12 Arleigh Burke-class Destroyers
18 Halifax Class Frigates

With that force balance it leaves me with

1 Nimitz-class CVNs:HMS:Valor
12- Ticonderoga CG
24- Arleigh Burke-class Destroyers
38- Halifax Class Frigates
14- Virginia class Submarines

Leaving me with, Two Nimitz, Four Ticondergo's, 6 Arleigh Burke's, and 12 more Frigates to offer for sale.

Preliminary pricing is up in the main thread

Post by **K. A. Pital** » 2008-05-27 12:41am

Wow. That's a gigantic downsize.

I fear most of it will just end up rusting decommissioned, like it happened with the Soviet Navy post-downfall.

Pity, but I only use Soviet hardware so I can't buy anything here

MKSheppard · Post by **MKSheppard** » 2008-05-27 12:42am

I'll buy the CVNs and SSNs.

Post by **Sea Skimmer** » 2008-05-27 12:53am

So officially how much time has elapsed in the game now?

2 years 10 months and twelve to twenty four days. Tomorrow it will be 2 years 11 months and change.

*And Sheppard I'm holding on to my subs I already de-commised six of them earlier for another project. If you want the reactor mass, I still have two left with the reactor still installed.

MKSheppard · Post by **MKSheppard** » 2008-05-27 01:13am

I'll just take the two SSNs and CVNs. *gets out pocketbook*

Right, I've finished translating communiques, and I've finished negotiations with the MESS representative. Namely, I'm now the bitch of yet another vast, faceless military-industry complex. (Making that the third one this year

).
Coyote is now the Kreat Klay Kaiser and Supreme "sayar" (Marshal) of The Neverhood. (Yes, yes I made a K.K.K and an SS joke, I'm just going with the times)

Also, naughty, naughty Shep,

Stas Bush was the one with shared research, Nuclear facilities and Uranium mining facilities in the Neverhood, you didn't even want to work on the armour project

. (I even left the budget to his discretion back in the day via IM).

Games are more fun when you don't care about winning (Unless you're going to win, which is the best possible case). It's amusing to see Shep gradually succeed through gradual diplomacy at begining a world nuclear war, and this despite everyone being sure he would do so right from the start

.
Reminds me never to play Chess with a Shep-nukistani, with Death on the Line!

The partially clad body was found in a desolate section of Amonk-ma-pork.

Post by **K. A. Pital** » 2008-05-27 01:28am

What the hell are you thinking Shep? Do you want to go to war with the FUN rght now?

Post by **The Yosemite Bear** » 2008-05-27 01:31am

obviously, he won't be satisified untill we are all ruled by our own versions of the Hmongus.

Post by **K. A. Pital** » 2008-05-27 01:33am

Speaking of which, I am appealing to the MESS to help us enforce the lockdown and put more pressure on UAR ...

*sigh*

Never thought it'd come to this, but it did

Post by **The Yosemite Bear** » 2008-05-27 01:35am

BTW due to virus problems I rushed the siege down to the conclusion.

did anyone like how I resolved it?

oh and once I'm not so tired from repairing/reinstalling my computer I'll write some more. basically they played possum, and wound up gaining some kids as citizens...
