During the biowar Shep and the Stas (your ally Stas for the record there) threw enough chem and bio weapons at each other to obliterate an entire nation. I think Lonestar using three baby nukes on a limited military target is FAR less of a precedent than the utter and total destruction of Shepistan by Stas's bio-weapons.

But Stas' thing was totally secret, ninja style man! I think public perception is that the Astarians and Shepistanis ended up killing each other.

I modified the conspiracy in Klavostan post I did to reflect That the Sultan only temporarily nationalized the mercenaries.

Well you are the former colonial mastermind! My paranoid weirdo constituents still think you run the world.

Mang!
I think it would be best if we allowed the Frequesean boys to play in
their own backyard, mangs. Telling the F-ing dudes how to play with their own toys, in their own playpen, when they've been playing with their own toys in their own playpen for quite some time now... that's rather rude, I'd say.
Oh, you just don't understand Miratia, Shroom. That's just our way of saying, "Respectfully, no, thank you."

Just checking on something; the UCSR doesn't have any unit called Strigon, do they?
EDIT: I'm reasonably sure the newest UCSR fighter is the CFA-44 Nosferatu itself, so...

Current newest UCSR fighters are of the PAK-FA series, or Su-50/53/54.

Shady's got a picture of a Nosferatu with soviet stars photoshopped on in the UCSR's OOB, but no information on what he calls it, so I figured I'd check.

To expand on that, we probably would've ended up working with you through San Dorado, anyways. Then after some time with a relationship like that we'd come to realize that hey, maybe you aren't the nasty foreign devil gaijin we thought you were, after all!
So yeah, he meant everything we had him say. He just might've said it, uh,
differently if you were a local.

Eh, that's the CFB-01. Continental Fighter Bomber. Like the FB-22 concept.

Supreme Leader Gero is awesome! I love Miratia, especially with its strange custom of clapping hands with clenched fists!

I love everyone but I think these MESSheads could lighten up a *littel*.
Except Coyote, since he's kind of cool. But sometimes he gets kind of pretentious when he's all SRS BSNSS. But he's my favorite of the Messheads.
Second is RogueIce, just because his country is full of androgyne albinos and ravaged by GEOSTIGMA.
Wilkens is cool too.

North Veleria is primarily a blank slate, though way back during Japanistan's initial thrust into Veleria I had the local nations sign on with each other and Cascadia in a very shaky, house-of-cards Treaty of Hasiyah (the capital of al-Itani). It's still technically in place but with Japanistan isolationist again its purpose has pretty much disappeared. Furthermore a number of posts I did indicated that Fredonia has ongoing ethnic tensions that could result in civil war.
Having Estovakia mess around in Yulanti and Tanvarika would make things interesting.
Also, having Estovakia as Slavic fits in a way as Misteria was written as such too. Maybe both are former Tsarist CSR/UCSR colonies or something.

It's fine, just that I sent you the next little segment thinking it would be the same post.

Actually, the only edits I did was removing Shroom's "script" format parts after I noticed them. That's all Shroom's dialogue.
He's just being on best behavior while visiting Cascadia.

I'm working on a proper OOB on Syria, especially in light of the fact that Coyote is developing Japanistan a bit more, but is there a real world OOB I could look at and work on?
Also, is 750million economy, with 60 million population considered Second World? I'm not sure on the calcs.

Well considering that's about $12.50 per capita/year, that's well into the third world.

Nah. All those lines were actually exchanged turn-by-turn via AIM.
Well, all those lines
after Shroom went on about Rufus and Kamila.
(You do me too little credit, mang. I didn't make the FUN enormously massive in SDNW Game 1 just by posting silly acronyms or homoerotic content. Although those burly ISCA dockyards certainly did help!

)
But, yeah. I forgot to include a tiny something in the compilation of our IMs that I sent to Steve for posting.
CHECKUP CASCADIA wrote:How... Shroomanian, was the thought that crossed Stephen’s head, as he was not entirely surprised by the proposed organization name. Do they come up with these things in their spare time or is it some bizarre gift? Aloud he remarked, “A World Health Organization being founded is just what everyone needs to hear.” Why am I suddenly worried this’ll turn into another ‘Caymans/Gaymans’ thing?
Shroom laughed. "The World Health Organization it is, then. Ah, but GOPHER, what a name. I'm sure 'World Health Organization' can translate into 'GOPHER' in other languages, so at least some can have that great acronym. But the main point is, we'll be helping people, irregardless of alphabet soups. And that's just what the world needs in these troubling times."
Stephen: “Very much so.”
It was great working with Steve.
[And Prime Minister Shroom was no doubt afraid that if he pissed him off, Stephen Garrett would've blown him away with a frickin' bazooka! BAD ASS MOTHERFUCKER!
