Er, no, not quite. Considering the threat of massive disease outbreak from (1) the collapse of sanitation and general infrastructure and (2) the UAR's offensive bioweapons, um, we can't really do that much for some time. Trade is about to collapse, too.
At this point even if Saddamistani did not use bioweapons deliberately, a war is going to end up breaking enough of them open to cause plagues anyway. Unlike Iraq in 1991, Saddamistan will not destroy its own arsenal out of fear.

great I can now see the profits from Hughes/Kaiser being a large scale medical provider going through the roof. Worse as bad as this is looking, the sales of Soma are probalby going to net my criminal elements a small fortune...

I think I'm past the deadline where I should have said something about massive tsunami that had tragically devastated my nation. Oh well, I'll make the relevant post anyway... tomorrow. I'm very tired today and yesterday and the day before that.

Right when the Doomsday Clock strikes one minute to midnight, writer's block strikes for me. That's just GREAT.

I for one have gotten really tired of back room deal's and messages sent through PM's and all of that bullshit in this game. I have used such tools in the past, but from now on even "secret" deals from Alexandria and anything else I control is going in the main thread, and I'd prefer it to be done that way for everybody. The back room dealing has led to a great deal of the avoidable bullshit going on, that has nothing to do with in game events (such as people argueing about how many nukes so and so has or whatever. We state ythis shit openly, it can be worked out by the players immediatly instead of after events have happened.). If other people can't keep in character knowledge seperate from player knowledge too bad, that's their responsibility.

Someone really should make an essay comparing the back-doors diplomacy and invasion of a small, conquered country in this game as an analogy to the human errors that resulted in World War 1.
Lot's of fun paralels

Damn inbred Austro-Hungarian Habsburg bastard king!
I'm amazed that no ones written an attempted assasination attempt on, say, the VP of Phongonia or The son of the SAC commander of Shepnukistania
yet.

You know what, I'm going to let my citizens out of their bunkers. I see no reason to live in fear, and if someone lobs a nuke in my direction out of spite, sheesh, I'll just quit the game.

We could consider restarting the game without genocidal dicks in charge of the two most powerful nations
Shep's CT might end up with him earning an Imperium-sized shithole, just like Neverhood
And how do we restart the new game? With the Olympics held in Canissia!
Where communism shall be defeated by the Shroomanian Stallion, who will best the Reds' Ivan Drago in mortal combat.
I WILL CRUSH YOU!
FOR ME! FOR MEEEE!!!!!

If we ever restart the game, I am making a nation of underground bunker-dwellers adept at digging and digging and
digging.

No, no. They made the game fun. Kinda.
Next time, we'll just mobilize straight away and destroy them utterly before they can so much as blink

You can knock down hive cities, but in order to get at Dwarven PeZookians, you will have to blast through kilometers upon kilometers of soil and rock!

No, no. We're gonna be
cool dwarves, with good-looking dwarvettes, enjoying trade and diplomacy and importing Shroomelven hookers to our cities. Just, you know - paranoid about people trying to murder them with huge, huge nukes.

Goddamit man, I told you allready, the plan calls for women chosen on the basis of immense physical attractiveness and good genes. Not this strange dwarf jesus-person.

No. I still like to live on the surface.
EDIT: Oh, hey! I have an idea!
If SD.net world goes to hell, ruined and massacred by Shep and Skimmer, we can restart it...1000 years in the future!
It will be SD.net world...with mutants! And lost relics of Ancient Times! And weird cultures worshipping the Atomic Gods Of Death and digging underground to get away from them.

It can be like, so postapocalyptic. Screw nations, it'll be done on a person-by-person basis. We must survive!
The Atomic Gods of Death, the Shep and the Super Saddam Special!
And the grotesque heathen heresies of the 777th Shroom!
