@Cale

Well…this certainly puts a dent in all our plans. I thought you were going to grab china this turn?

I took my half of china anyway, the rest up to you I suppose.

Also you took our jurbs!

@Vlad

Dude, you were supposed to take Korea, not Beijing, that bit was mine. Get with the program

I assumed that you both were going to do it this turn, since my military had to rest this passed one.

As for your economy, that certainly is a shame, but between Africa and Commu-China, what can I do?

Are we not going to discuss Star-Land.

@Cale

Not that I was expecting you to do anything about it. I'll need to expand my range of produce.

I'm the motherland, I've got a lot more cards than just oil.

Things change. I'm a capitalist, and uranium is in demand.

Sorry BSoD, but random, genocidal killing isn't my cup of tea (I'm not RussianFedora). I do, however, intend to make a killing (figuratively) by selling this on the open market.

Edit: Really? Deleting your post? Isn't that going a little far, BSoD?

I reflected on that post and decided it sounded like I was just being butthurt over not getting something so I removed it.

Would be a terrible shame if some Socialist states decided they don't like your form of Capitalism.
Be a shame if a Gray and a Blue man decided to help them.

Unofficial But Entirely Valid Warning Message From The Medicean Government
Howdy folks, it seems like quite a few of you are interested in nuclear warfare! While that in itself isn't much a problem, the use of such things could cause some mighty serious damage to the planet. While we may have taken a pacifist position just recently, we wouldn't be against showin' our nasty face to anybody who decides they want to go using the world as their personal shitter.

In short, I'm saying don't make nuclear weapons or I will personally devastate your every orifice.

have a nice day -your bff Medicea

^This nigga right here.

@RPP

That's right, I say we turn towards the people who are currently hogging more Uranium than they need to sustain their nation with nuclear power and demand they relinquish it

What other reason could they have for so much uranium? Hmm? They cannot be trusted with so much.

It's not like they would use it for Nuclear Deterrence or anything because they're a smallish nation, right?

There are other ways to deter hostilities.

yeah! like a metal gear!
oh wait that was designed to be a nuke launcher…

Yes, but nuclear weapons work really, really well. Particularly when you're the only people with them.

You know, perhaps some people don't quite feel like heeding my warning, but that is alright. After all, it would prove I'm not all talk if I got to make an example of a hoodlum.

I am missing turns from Crimson Locks and RocketPropelledPanda.

Oh, and none of you mention the armies on the map?
Does this mean it's a bad idea, or did you just not notice?

Just sent.
Also I like the armies on the map, helps visualize conflicts.

Uh….

What?

So I did some research.

Angmar: Has no nuclear capabilities or research.
Medecia: One of the most advanced countries in atomic research.
Morrowind: Has no nuclear capabilities or research.
Syserror: No nuclear research, large uranium fields.
Frasier: Limited nuclear research.
Victoria: Nuclear capable country. May soon be fielding short-range nuclear missiles.

D'aww you are making me blush.

Turn 14
NEXT TURN: WEDNESDAY
Political Map
-Colonial governors of New Navarra, Javertus, and Pretoria gather to formally divide the great desert between their states. The region is definitely not settled, and likely never will be, but the land is now claimed and governed as seen on the map.
-I have decided that, ultimately, units on the map are too much of a hassle to manage, and so few people reacted to it that it wasn't worth the extra work.

The United Socialist States of Victoria
Dictatorship of the Proletariat

-Monoplanes and Seaplane ships enter production.
-An atomic bomb test is successfully made in Nevada.
-Missile technology advances further with Intermediate Range Ballistic Missiles capable of striking nearly anything on the same continent.
-A missile launch facility is constructed on Detroit Island.
-Large scale uranium mining has begun.
-A series of manned missile launches are begun, with most landing and being recovered in the Summerset Sea. Valuable information is gathered on the effects of gravity and the composition of the upper atmosphere.

The Kingdom of Fasier
DarkErmac

-The digital computer and the telephone are invented. Bureaucratic efficiency skyrockets as individuals are able to communicate more easily, and compute complicated equations quickly.-Strategic bombers and battleships enter production.
-Highways are constructed throughout Iberia, and into Vascon lands. Steam cars become increasingly popular among middle class citizens.
-Uranium mines open in Aggara. Production is very small-scale due to the limited use Fasier has for fissile elements.
-The Vascon non-aggression pact with Victoria is extended to include Fasier.

The United States of the Syserror Republic
Blue Screen (of death)

-Biplanes, SRBMs, and crude tanks enter the military production line.
-Farms in the Central Black Earth Region are arranged so that varying crop types create a text visible from space reading 'BSOD IS THE BEST.' If there were people in space, they might notice. But there aren't, so they don't.
-Uranium mining and refining begins in Ukraine.
-Experiments with fissile elements leads to the discovery of the atomic model, and the creation of a nuclear reactor.
-To make up for the loss of the oil market, steel production is subsidized. Unemployment rates drop.
-Agricultural reforms are also made, and the USSR quickly becomes the leading food exporter.
-Military supplies are sent to the PRC. The Kuomintang is infuriated, and has done all they can to put a stop to it, including sinking several shipping freighters traveling through the East China Sea.
-Diplomatic gestures are made to repair relations with Persia, but they mostly fall flat.

The Most Serene Republic of Crimsonia
Crimson Locks

-Seccia launches an attack from Oldenburg. Their troops successfully overrun border defenses and capture several key German cities, as well as Prague.
-Superior air power proves to be crutial in modern combat, as the Seccian bombers decimate supply lines and defensive installations.
-A series of precision strikes on key military industrial from the air by both bombers and rockets has severely damaged military production capabilities.
-Angmar declares war, and invades central Poland. Their attack deals a devastating blow, and puts the army on two fronts. Unable to contain the attack, the nation crumbles, and the capital is lost to Angmar.
-With no friendly ports to flee to, the fleet is scuttled, to prevent it from falling into enemy hands.

The Most Serene Republic of Seccia
Slappy the Fish

-SRBMs, aircraft carriers, and destroyers enter production.
-Radar is invented.
-Friendly relations have been established with Yomi through a weapons trade. They respond by immediately utilizing the advanced weaponry in the conquest of their neighbors.
-A massive attack against Crimsonia is carried out. Their African holdings fall quickly and surrender, and their colonial governors are replaced.
-Polish military installations in Europe are bombed, and SRBMs are put to use in shelling distant targets, especially the industrial sectors of major cities.

The Noble Republic of Angmar
Cale the Witch King of Cats

-Gliders, green energy, and the atomic model are experimented with.
-Armored cars enter production.
-A series of bills are passed to protect the working class from exploitation.
-The Sahara desert is claimed, and a series of oases are claimed. Nomadic Berbers and Bedouins are either conquered or join the republic peacefully through trade agreements.
-A plan to transform the Bosphorus into a hydro-power plant receives significant backlash from both merchants and engineers. The former rely upon Black Sea trade through the channel and claim that the Constantinople's economy would collapse if the channel were blocked, and the latter can find no evidence that the channel flows from one sea to another as a river does with enough force to turn a generator.
-Crimsonia is invaded. The land forces make much progress, having delayed their attack until the Polish army was exhausted on the opposite front.

The United Kingdom of Vascony
MDFification

-Knowledge of interchangeable parts and vaccines is sent from Forseti.
-The mechanical computer is invented. So is radar, and high yield explosives.
-Various support weapons, including anti-aircraft guns and depth charges, are developed for the Destroyer class ship to help counter planes, submarines, and other small, elusive craft.
-An alliance is forged with both Persia and Iraq, and wealthy corporations move in to start drilling oil there.

The Noble Republic of Medicea
RocketPropelledPanda

-Morrowind sends tactical bomber schematics.
-The digital computer is invented.
-Genetic engineering is utilized to eradicate various genetic disorders and diseases. There is promising potential in creating unique forms of life, or augmenting humans before birth. The nation's fundamental conservatives are railing against this new technology, particularly those in Ireland and Scotland.
-Medicea has the greenest of all green energies. Coal has been by and large phased out entirely, although some plants still use it due to proximity to mines and traditional infrastructure.
-A mandatory vaccination is distributed for various non-existant or non-threatening diseases. Conspiracy theories arise surrounding this, and many people are refusing to take it.
-The nation's largest telephone company is instructed to establish a branch in every nation on earth, sharing their engineering and technological secrets with all who will hear it.

The Most Serene Republic of Morrowind
Fridge Logic

-Atomic theories and the nuclear reactor come to be.
-Vaccines are developed.
-Missile technology is invested into via a project known as "Tower." A satellite is put into orbit shortly afterwards.
-The war with Vascony is put to an end.
-Uranium mining in Vinland and oil drilling in Aldmeris and Skyrim begin large scale.
-Petroleum production has become enough to support domestic requirements, making a cheaper alternative to importing it from abroad.
-Morocco is added as a foreign dependency via coup, and Uranium mines open to the southeast.
-Passenger airlines become very popular for long distance travel. Dunmer Airlines have opened a few air strips in other countries as well.
-A free trade agreement is made with Victoria.
-The friendly atmosphere between Morrowind and the world's most notorious communist state has drawn the concern of many Dunmer aristocrats and wealthy businessmen. Lobbyists propose legislation that would abolish the nation's tiny communist party. Victoria has threatened to sever friendly relations should such a thing happen.

The Federal Republic of Forseti
Vlad

-Submachine guns and Torpedo boats arrive from Vascony.
-The first atomic bomb test is carried out on a remote Pacific island.
-Crude tanks are built. The radio and the telephone are invented.
-Cavalry units are by and large disbanded, with only a few mounted units being retained for ceremonial purposes. Military horses are now used only in logistics and scouting.
-An extremely bad case of flu arrives in Copenhagen and spreads into Sweden. Several cities are quarantined, and medical supplies are distributed. Thousands of lives are claimed, but a vaccine is successfully developed.
-Beijing is reinforced with additional troops, including the new tanks.
-War is declared upon the Incan empire. Cuzco is very quickly captured, and the nation crumbles.
-Propaganda continues to be spread throughout Skyrim. Very little effect is observed.

FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF!!!
The one time I'm not on KYM several times a day and I completely miss a turn

Message in a Bottle from Vascony

His holiness the pope demands that the Orthodox Angmar menace, which has supplied the pagans with arms, withdraw from its invasion of our fellow Catholic nation. We urge the patriarch of Constantinople to either condemn this measure or, as the saying goes, eat a dick.
As for Seccia, we intend to write you nasty letters. Very nasty ones. You have no idea.

Hand over yer booty infidels;
His Holiness the Pope,
Rear Buccaneer of Vascony

EDIT:
>Victoria tests weapon
>Sets it off on perfectly fertile land
>Right next to a huge useless desert
>Communism

We'll see how Gung-Ho you are when your Pope is nailed to the roof of his palace, his eyes stitched skyward so he may watch his God die.

-Crude tanks are built. The radio and the telephone are invented.

But I thought I already researched crude tanks.

You did. Text error resulted in the tech not being in your list, so I didn't notice. I'll amend that for next turn, dropping the "crude" part from the tech list.

Alright, thanks.

Hey everyone, check out who's been doing nuclear bomb tests.

Capitalist profit? Amiright? Hmmm? Don't suppose we should be questioning a few motives here?

Also RPP, about that threat you issued to anyone who starts threatening the planet with nukes; Good time to follow up on that, no?

Angmar supports this statement. Victoria and friends have leapt into the Nuclear Age with unprecedented speed and power, and these powers are ones that threaten not only themselves, but the entire world. They seek destructive power at the most gross level;

Wait a second,
you guys didn't think I was joking?

God damn I'm like one of the smallest player nations here I was being sardonic.

@RPP

Goddamit man, this is Nation RP! This is no joking matter!

THE ENTIRE FICTIONAL, SIMULATED WORLD IS AT STAKE!

Except for planet Australia.

I find your lack of Christian values disturbing.

Y'all leave Vlad alone.

According to today's news, your lack is even more disturbing.

I've wanted, lately, to start an adventure/RPG type of thread, but the sheer number of them is a little disconcerting to me. It seems like a noobish thing to do, with a new one appearing nearly every day, so I have been very hesitant to actually make a thread. I was thinking of narrating the story, perhaps accompanied by some extremely mediocre animations/illustrations, and uploading it to YouTube.

The reason I post this here is because the story, as I have imagined it thus far, will have it's setting in the Nations RP world. I made this map for everyone's favorite island, which will be the focal location of the adventure.

Would such a thread interest you guys and girl(s)?

Do thou even have time for this, what with special friends and NatRPs?

Sure.
If it's like the one I did a while back, I think it'd be fun.
And it could be influenced by this game, too.

I'm interested in all coherent adventures in the forums. Would this be restricted to players from NatRP, or would it be open to all?

Let us assume for a moment that I'm capable of multitasking it. Besides, it can't possibly take any more time out of the day than this thread does. I'll be fine.

It would be open for anybody, but natRP players will get priority for anything.

Sounds like a good bit of fun, at what point in the timeline would the story take place?
(Turn in writing process btw)

It sounds interesting, but it would be difficult to pull off. To create a smaller focus (since NatRP spans decades) the colonies could be controlled by their respective player, who would decide what to do. It would also be a welcomed break from the standard medieval fantasy drivel. I'd gladly play an adventure game set on an island covered in competing empires vying for a massive uranium deposit set in what would be similar to the Late Imperialism period and the Atomic Era/World War II.

In a hypothetical timeline in the distant future, possibly hundreds of years after some kind of apocalypse or other global crisis. I didn't want present natRP events mucking about with the story as it goes, and I didn't want to have to retcon things as I went along because somebody decided to do something nasty to the region.

(huh?)

It won't be another nations RP. The story would be character driven, and your proposed actions would be directed towards individual people, not entire nations. I'm not entirely sure what tech level the story would take place in, but it would definitely something regressed from the current game's level.

Sounds cool.

Eh, I'm not 100% on the idea of an AdventureRP, although I may wait until Syndic makes the thread and see how things turn out before I make a decision on joining or not.

I'm not really interested in playing the adventure RPG myself, but it sounds pretty cool.
BTW Syndic, just to clarify, did I get the radar I tried to research or not?

EDIT: If the future catastrophe is a nuclear war, our little Star-shaped Island is likely to be the first thing to get bombed. Perhaps the catastrophe is in fact something along the lines of an EMP that destroyed all electric-based tech?

I'm for it. Think of the possibilities, we could end up as rebels fighting the full power of the nations controlling us.

Like this guy.

Edit: But I do suggest that we finish KYMnatRP first.

>Finish KYMnatRP

It never ends motherfucker.

It ends when RF descends on us from his abode upon Mars.

Speaking of which, who wants to help me in my decision to just skip the whole nuclear arms race and try to get to space?
And by help I don't mean try to get to space yourselves. I mean tech trade with me.
