HAHA! Langley! That's an inverted map of the Philippines, with Palawan removed! :lol:

Put it slightly North West of the nearest Green Islands off the Untamed Continent?
Flipped vertically and horizontally, with many of the Visayan islands either fused with each other (notably, Cebu, Negros, Bohol, and Panay all become one big island, while Samar and Leyte made up another) or taken out entirely (Palawan and a few others whose names I forgot). Not that it makes any difference, but it's good that you noticed. :lol:

Northwest of the green islands off the Untamed Continent sounds good.

I just moved you out to the Black Sea, FYI.

I'm in the process of adding labels and clearing up the little details now. And also wondering what to do with Norseman's maps :P

If you can do this on my final version instead, that would kinda be preferable. I figured I had to just put a stop to the modifications, so I issued a decisive one yesterday.. After you signed off. Sorries!

Well, I prefer working on the raw GIMP file because it has all the layers in place...but I'll just arrange it to be exactly the same as your final map, while adding labels and the equator and a proper scale and such. Then I can send the file to you, so that you can fiddle with it if you need to.

Sounds good?

Wow, Coiler is advocating going to war with Japanistan? Based on a single blurb in the NMJ in turn based on speculation by some PeZookian analyst? :D

Just as a question, what was the rationale for there being no SSGs/SSGNs? Your moderator doesn't think this limitation makes any sense at all.

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."

I will arrive personally since apparently Comrade Gromyko will have other things to do.

If it isn't clear, the CSR offers weapons to those who currently find themselves opposed to Japanistan and other empires, especially former and newly liberated colonies! ;) I'll present a new catalogue shortly, but you could figure out yourself, it's mostly late USSR stuff offered at discount prices.

My newest addition is a portable track-mounted nuclear plants at the price of, say, $100 million.

Possible variations are:
1) TES-8:
Image
Bury the nuclear plant machine into the ground, connect your wires and you have an asset useful for both military and civilian applications.. It's a newer version of the TES-3 mobile nuclear power plant that didn't quite make it to mass production in the CSR.

4 Tracked Chassis in total - reactor, turbines, control center, and personnel livng quarters

2) AES Pamir
The Pamir is a car-mounted atomic energy station.
Image

Cutaway models

4 MAZ-537 Chassis in total - reactor, turbines, control center, and personnel livng quarters.

The heaviest car, the one with the reactor, would weigh 60 tons, which does not exceed the weight that could be transported by ordinary railway cars

Hmm... maybe we ought to have a marketplace thread. I am loathe to dig through all those old threads just to get to what I want.

Once I get my shit in order, I'll send someone to the FUN conference.

A marketplace thread would be nice.

It would be better to just have those offerings consolidated in a single thread. That way, you don't have to jump from thread to thread just to check prices.

Sure, why not. I'm thinking of updating my OOB with my own shipyard/aircraft offerings.
