Hmm, interesting. Well I suppose someone will just have to end up getting a crateful of dead mousies with their neck's snapped as a warning.

The Charliesheen News Network proclaims its winning via tiger blood... 8) :roll:
"The 4th Earl of Hereford led the fight on the bridge, but he and his men were caught in the arrow fire. Then one of de Harclay's pikemen, concealed beneath the bridge, thrust upwards between the planks and skewered the Earl of Hereford through the anus, twisting the head of the iron pike into his intestines. His dying screams turned the advance into a panic."'

Surely victory must pass to the voice of liberation in the Feelipeens, the Communista's News Network? :D

Yay, yet another war I'm not involved in! Because honestly, there are 40 Locrians. I don't think they need a news network.

I think the Chamarrans can make a more credible claim to that than random crackheads.

Baerne, request that you scale that image down, OK? It's too wide.

Oh, sorry. How does one go about scaling an image down?

Simplest way prior to uploading is to copy-paste it into paint, go to image, go to stretch/skew, reduce size, and save.

Care to share why you decided to lob off your leader's head? It won't be the last time some player did it for either the lulz, or because they wanted to quit or do a reboot.

Reboot, basically, combined with setting up an internal conflict I intend to have down the road. Also, my part of the galaxy was getting boring - I thought I'd liven it up a bit. :D

Yeah, nukes tend to either liven things up a bit or make things very quiet, very fast, very permanently.

Be fun to see a Trudeau-type nutcase running, well, any of your nations. Mine sorta couldn't produce one, not enough of us... Likewise, no Karlack Trudeau. Still. Be fun to see what sort of lunacy he's able to correct.

CENINTERN debate! Those who are interested can either use Centralists from your PCs, existing NPCs, or made-up NPCs.

Shot you a PM, Force Lord. Browser was acting wonky, so forgive me if you got it twice/it didn't go through.

Hmmm... I'd try with an NPC from nowhere in particular, but I don't think I'm up-to-date enough with what's happened so far to play anyone who isn't clearly suffereing from Alzheimer's or outright insane.

Force Lord, I hope you don't mind me making these terrible, terrible people from way out in the wild black yonder where they haven't been brought into line, like, ever. And feel free to have them airlocked or shot or not show up since they're embarrassments.

I'm trying to figure out how to broach the topic of Hitler's embarrassing American nephew without it coming out really weird and bad.

Aaaand now we know why the Nova Atlantean Commonwealth, unlike the Technocracy of Umeria, seldom engages in moonwriting. It never ends well.

Good one, Shroomy.
