I'm not Shep, man . San Dorado might be an occasional nuisance, but we're not suicidal. That would be bad for business...

So how about that observer status

Siege is my buddy and I'm protecting him! Goddamn, conflicting ideologies and interests!

But Siege says that he's not going to be a global dick, not like Shep and Skim. I'm sure his crime-infested city would be better suited for more interesting 'personal stories' like:



The hero San Dorado needs, not the hero San Dorado deserves.

We have to chase him, because he can take it.

He's not a hero. He's a silent guardian.

He is... The Dark Shroom!

Well, even though my nation gained its independence through violent rebellion, we've largely patched things up with the mother country.

Think of us as the Canada or Australia to Shroomy's UK. Although I might end up more like Uganda or Zimbabwe.

That sounds like a pretty spiffy idea to me. "Keeping the natives down" could be our motto . Although since I'm a corporate state I'm still going to sell tons of weaponry to whoever wants to buy it...

By the way, wasn't the basic idea of your state that you are constantly experiencing urban unrest or something similar? That would certainly make living nearby interesting.

Yeah, San Dorado is a hybrid of a Dredd-style megacity and a deep noir version of New York. I already have the corporate security, corruption, constant riots and an influential mafia, the occasional rocket attack by militias from a neighboring shithole country would fit quite handsomely .

(Hell I wouldn't be surprised if someone in San Dorado sold them the rockets they shoot at San Dorado... It's just that kind of place...)

Well our motto shouldn't be oppress thy neighbor per se, just that we are local and while other people will want to do things with the third world area, they are just visiting, we have to live there. So only our fucked up arming militia schemes are allowed and no one else’s !

I can't wait for this to start.

I am already getting the shakes.

I like the way you're thinking, man .

Weird-ass Filipino-style chicken on skewers?

M3 - Rabbit Fever - Tularemia. Weaponized by US as Agent UL in the M143 bomblet. Fatality rate of 40-60%. Rate of Action 3 days, with duration of 1-3 weeks (treated) and 2-3 months (untreated). Sensitive to sunlight and loses virulence over time. Later reclassified as Agent TT (Wet Type) and Agent ZZ (Dry Type).

By the way, the classification system goes up to like 200+

This is a big sugjestion of mine. One thing that i put into the OP of SD.net's world was a 'No power has a nuclear arsenal as of the start", i am going to say that this be...

A-Retained
B-Expanded to include Bioweapons.

Zor

I won't have all of them. There will be several weapons in the B and C categories which I will have stockpiled intensively. As for the others; you need something to designate internal developments...

I take it your nation will just be like N.Korea.

Uhm Shep?

In case you haven't noticed, that's the internal project designation for the bomb program. Doesn't mean I actually have it; because otherwise

N300 - Multi-Gigaton Doomsday Device, Buried under mountain; has multi-thousand ton cobalt jacket.
N301 - Orbiting Space Station armed with dozens of nukes. Known as Death Star.
N302 - Manned Lunar Outpost armed with dozens of missiles for last strike capability.

I'd already have those

I think his problem was that you, the Nuke God, mistook an implosion-type device with a gun-type device

How come Shep hasn't got a new "Butcher of Terra Nova" as a new sig?

This is why we can't have nice things...

With Shep's declarations, I could see the whole world preemptively declaring war on him as soon as the game starts . In this world, the neocons who say we need regime change in Shepnukistan are most likely right .

While that might be a bit much, I can certainly say most people are going to have a much lower tolerance for bullshit this time around. So if someone drops WMD's all over the place without entering negotiations at all, we can expect that person to be hit by most other nations.

Other way around. And I told him the mistake over IM.

Say, Shep, will your biochemical weapons be for sale?

Anyway, considering the way we seem to be heading right now I'll be sure to invest in an oversized multi-layered air defence system. Can't have people gassing my cities -- I don't have anything else!

Siegey, it wouldn't do if Big Shroomania finds Little San Dorado getting bioweapons from its Best Friend Forever, Shepistan

Battle of the obnoxious client states!

I can hear the banjos being tuned...

Hey, why don't we do just that?

No need for regime change, though...

*ominous music*

Yeah, it wouldn't do at all. How do you like your food imports, Siege?
