Ah, Atlantic acquisition. Do nations who didn't send in their turn not appear in the turn, or did Kickassia just implode?

@Cale
Sure, although I'd probably have to expand out and claim that city state to the east first.

Uhh.. What happened to ayeria(don't judge)?
AND WHY CAN'T I BOAT!?!??!!

@Madcat: Italy is broken just come into the Med.
@Carnotaur: Because it's just now becoming the Industrial Age. Ships made with Steel is a new concept, let alone Missiles, and the computers to guide them.

So now you want to trade with the Vascon master race.

…

Ok then.

Okay, I am going to pursue trade with Syserror and Not Soviet Russia this turn. While I like the idea of banding together to put an end to Aeriya, at this point in time, the main bulk of our military force is going to be aimed at dealing with China. If anyone is going to face off with Aeriya near our border, we will support with basic supplies such as food and shelter, but not armaments.

Oh, and in the matter of trade, if specifics are needed, I think our main need is coal, and our likeliest surplus is agricultural products.

Also, in difficult times such as this, what really concerns the citizens of Sagarmatha is the memory of what an awesome flag Nepal used to have, and considerations to design a new one anywhere near as awesome. Suggestions welcome.

No one touches Aeriya.

Fine. No coal for you guys.
Also, don't anyone dare touch me, I'm doing what I want, and I don't want any interference. Don't touch me and I won't touch you.

@Otak Empire
I won't harm you, I'll just provide some coal for all of you if you have such techs.
We will trade metals, resources, oh it will be so much fun!

@Leninland
Don't strike me just because I left the trade routes. I don't want to have to use my military, it's just a big waste of time and resources.
If you want me back, let me keep my current territories at this moment and I'll come back and still provide coal and metals. Military will be used if you attempt to make any offensive or aggressive moves.

@Sastrei
Same with you. Don't touch me and I won't do the same. I keep my territories and I will still provide coal. I won't hurt you because you're the closest to me and I want you to be my pal.

@hipsternepal
My country's flag is a perfect square. How's that for hipster?
@noboaters
You do realize that this isn't 1902, but 2152? Battleships have existed forcenturies! Same goes with rocketry: it was developed millenia ago by The chinese(srsly, Google it.)
And for people who are against my ICBMs (thanks old US missile silos!) the original rockets were found in TURN 1.
@weasel:
We're cool bro, if you give me lots of coal and oil, I'll supply some food, beacause it seems you're running low.

"Tech: Imperial Age"
The Age isn't tied to a year. Humanity is at the Late Nineteenth Century in technological terms.. Scavenging became outmoded long ago, it's effectively starting at such a time, but more interesting.

But the design is tied to the age, just the way I'm building it is tied to the era.

@Wastelands: You'd best watch yourself. I don't like your "give me what I want or else" attitude, especially when it's happening on the same continent as me.

I'm not afraid to declare war on you if you don't stop acting like this.

@Eurasia: I'm going through with my plans to invade Charlie Brooker's Reich. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

@Carnotaur: You're still limited to the technological standards of the "late 1800's". Granted, the fact that "modern" technologies have already existed in the past has made advancing current technologies much quicker, as we do have a basic understanding of "modern" technology.

However, you have to keep in mind that civilization has taken a deep plunge, and we're only now rebuilding what used to be. That's why we're just getting out the Imperial Age, yet are already able to produce things like tanks and electricity fairly easily compared to the first time around.

I think the problem with your plans for battleships is that despite those techs already having been invented, we've lost them due to age. It takes time to reinvent things like computers and missiles.

@Robotnik

We've got our own matters to attend toward. But by all means go ahead and attack the CBR

@Eggman Empire

I'll look out for you then.
I won't do anything to you if you want to know.
My rant about what I want doesn't affect you. It's factory and production space, and you so you don't want, or didn't want any more coal or fuel production from my nation? Okay. Eventhough I don't have the technology to survive in the harsh glaciated areas of Northern Canada, I can still take territory for future use and easy access to other nations. Not yours though because you crave my blood it seems.

I'm also trying to execute trade routes to Otak and NERV, both of which aren't related to you in any way. Trying to rile me up because I want space to be productive seems a bit selfish on my part, but that's just me. I will still produce coal, but I'm still getting technology to survive in the glaciated Northern Canada.

You can declare war on me, but I wouldn't recommend it at all because we would both be fairly weak to be picked off by the nations around us. Many resources and land will be lost on my side, and we wouldn't be friendly to the nations around us in the aftermath. I would never do any sort if I were you, and I don't want to risk it just for the glaciated wastelands The Wastelands own.

I know you hate me for tearing the T.G.C, but I won't attack anyone for the sake of fun, and I would never attempt to conquer the trade country that was so precious to me. You other nations may have booted me off of it for recklessness and a bit of a scare, but I won't be pleased to have someone go after me for taking some area close to it. I would be happy to make a reappearance, and I would be glad to trade for food and fuel, but I'm not very active to do so because you, Eggman Empire and possibly Leninland don't want me to and would wage war. I am only neutral to Sastrei because he is probably the only one who doesn't hate me.
Sastrei-sempai I would never hurt you

Remember, if you want me back for coal, metals and fuel productions you can just ask, and I would be pleased to do so. Please don't threaten me for taking Wasteland's new wastelands.

@The Wastelands

Now now, no need to get all hostile. I'd rather prefer to stay out of any wars at the moment. My nation is doing well, so I don't see any need at the moment in starting pointless conflicts. If a war does arise however, I will try to stay out of it until absolutely necessary.

With that being said, I regret to say that at least for now, Leninland will not be engaging in trade with the Wastelands. Tensions between you and the T.G.C are high, and I'd prefer not to get on their bad side. In short, as long as you don't attack me,encroach on my territory, or affect my trading routes we should be fine.

@Weasel: "We would both be fairly weak…"

Hope you have an anus of steel, because that looks like a mighty rape train to me.

SHIT MAN I missed a turn

Thanks for pointing that out, now by that I know I'm royally fucked by him at any time.

I'm going to pretend I don't exist and I don't cause a hissy fit among this continent. Such a thing is going to happen, and I'm going to do down extremely damn fast if I keep acting like a sucker. I should try to make little effort to become at least not a nuisance here in the eyes of Eggman Empire.

pls don't hurt me m8
i promise nothing else i have can effect you
i'll stop

I would actually prefer if you could refrain from being in Europe thank you kindly.

My apologies, but the Reich had this coming. Not only did they cut off my trade routes which I was attempting to set up in Europe, but they also directly threatened me for merely wanting to trade. (Notice that I made no aggressive actions towards Europe to provoke any sort of response.) Charlie Brooker's Reich will pay for its insolence.

@Wastelands:

I may have made it sound like I was against your trading expansions. Let me be clear:

I don't care for the territories you already own, nor do I care about your trade deals in Asia.

The only thing which bothers me is that you seem to be acting rather aggressively, and then you start threatening the nations surrounding you.

"Also, don’t anyone dare touch me, I’m doing what I want, and I don’t want any interference."

I don't want a North American version of Kickassia to deal with on top of my war with the Reich.

In the case that war between our two nations does come to pass, I can easily reach the Wastelands. After all, I'm certain that The Glacier Community would be more than happy to allow my military to use their trading routes as a pathway into your nation, considering the way you've been treating them. However, I also see your need for expansion. I don't blame you for trying to get more land and resources, especially considering your current predicament (being wastelands and all).

I don't really want to go to war with you at the moment, but I'll do what it takes to defend my trading rights. You seizing Glacier Community pathways does affect me, and if you continue this expansion, you'll likely cause the collapse of T.G.C., which would result in my losing a valuable trading resource.

I won't tolerate any further aggression against T.G.C., and I'll resume trade with you only if you agree to halt your expansions in North America. Until then, I'm placing trade sanctions on the Wastelands.

@Robotnik

My apologies, but the Reich had this coming. Not only did they cut off my trade routes which I was attempting to set up in Europe, but they also directly threatened me for merely wanting to trade. (Notice that I made no aggressive actions towards Europe to provoke any sort of response.) Charlie Brooker’s Reich will pay for its insolence.

This is a European matter. We will deal with the Reich while you sit tight and wait for us to secure the west coast for your trade.

I welcome you to soften them up for us while you are here, but after the CBR is defeated, you will be asked to leave.

Europe for the Europeans, thanks

@weasel
Yeah. Enough with the bitching, ok? I want to have an alliance but you're making it hard. We don't care for your don't touch me I'm beautiful tactics. I'm confident that you can get your butt kicked by anyone on this continent if they rly wanted to. So stop! You've been warned

@Blue Screen

I can assure you that I'm not leaving Europe until the CBR has been soundly crushed beneath the Empire's heal.

But why must I leave afterwards? At the time I began colonizing Europe, there was an expanse of uninhabited land between the coast of Europe and the rest of the European nations.

Must I be denied my right to colonize uninhabited lands simply because a war-mongering European nation decided to expand and threaten my territory?

@Carnotaur

As I said earlier, the last thing this continent needs is another Kickassia. This goes for you as well. Please don't provoke the Wastelands unnecessarily.

What right? You only have the right to seek vengeance against the CBR. But this does not grant you the right to colonize what rightfully belongs to the European people.

Continue populating your side of the planet. This one is ours

You will be asked to leave for reasons of Cultural Homogeneity, and quite frankly, as a matter of elbow room.

Land you wanted to claim is no longer in supply, and is in our interest (and none to your harm) that we minimize the number of major powers in the area. You have several NPCs nearby if you wish to expand. As for warmongering, you'll be doing the same against the CBR in order to expand, if not warring against other locals to the European continent. I'll ask that you respect our declarations

@BSoD: Calm yourself friend.

@weasel
I just looked up what sempai meant. Thanks for the obscure compliment!
I like to be self sustaining, and a large economy is a bit overated IN MY OPINION, but, we need to do it more so yay friendship!
It's almost 2 am in Florida. I'm done for tonight.

@Cale & Robotnik

My apologies.

This does not change the fact that Charlie Brooker's Reich is an enemy of the Eggman Empire.

However, I understand your want to keep Europe for yourselves. Perhaps Eurasia would be willing to compromise?

How about this:

I leave mainland Europe completely without quarrel after the CBR is defeated, and for my cooperation, I get to keep that island to the north of Europe that I currently possess purely for trading purposes. I won't hoard military supplies on my island; it will only be used to make trade between our two continents easier.

You'd get to keep mainland Europe all to yourselves.

@Syserror

No offense taken. As I said, I understand your want to keep the Eurasian continent to yourself. All I'm asking is for a relatively small portion of land off the coast of Europe to facilitate trade between the Empire and the European nations after the Reich has been defeated.

I for one welcome our new CBR Overlords, and welcome them to invest in my stock market.

@Eggman: I can agree to that, but I'll wait for BSoD or Vlad to confirm.

No seriously, I welcome our CBR overlords. I hope they irradiate your asses, Vlad and Eggman.
Their boats can reach space. What can ur boats do fgt?

But seriously go fight the CBR, I beg of ye. I'll just sit here in Brazil, aye?
Also not sure if should fight Kickassia now while it's weakened or not…

Now would be the best time to deal with Kickassia. It's unlikely that the rebels will hold out against the kickassian military for long on their own, leaving the rogue state room the grow and a powerful wartime economy.

So what's this CBR everyone's dingdonging about.

Wow, you go away for a day and the whole world goes chat-happy. I know Verbose and I have reputations, but I didn't expect to log on today and find that I have to read a short novel on who gets to have their ass handed to them by the British Space Nazis or which stock exchange gets a corner on the North American sno-cone market.

British space nazis

Space Nahtzees.

BTW, since I got no suggestions for flag design, I threw this together:

Probably ugly, but it's not about winning beauty contests.

Ah, so I'm certain it wouldn't end up with me doing all the dirty work and accepting all the risks, now would it?

Shame Marmot appears to be gone. My forces are a continent away, I'll loose 2 cities straight a way if I engage, and he has a massive conscript army.
"The Rogue State" looks like it will get away with whatever it feels like doing bar massive international efforts.

Ok.

Hey, whatever happened to that Iron Skies movie anyway?

it was shit and everyone forgot about it

@Robotnik

I leave mainland Europe completely without quarrel after the CBR is defeated, and for my cooperation, I get to keep that island to the north of Europe that I currently possess purely for trading purposes. I won’t hoard military supplies on my island; it will only be used to make trade between our two continents easier.
You’d get to keep mainland Europe all to yourselves.

I'll agree to these terms. You may have that brand new, unnamed land lass off the coast

@MDF

Maybe you can convince Madcat to help you out

And yes. I implore Robotnik to fight CBR

@Fridge

So what’s this CBR everyone’s dingdonging about.

Just to elaborate further on what 404 and Vlad said…

British Space Nazi's

No really, that's all that is needed to be said.

Turn 10
Summer 2153

Map

Angmar
Cale the Witch King of Cats
Government: Representative Republic
Military: Good
Economy: Great
Tech: Industrial Age
-Italy refuses to surrender, fighting to the end. Their armies fall apart and route, and the government goes into exile in Iberia.
-Coal mining is subsidized, making rail travel even cheaper.
-New ships with armor plating smash the Italian fleet, ending the blockade and opening Angmar to pan-Atlantic trade once again.
-With the influx of new trade, prices drop on almost everything and competition soars. This, combined with good economic policies, results in an explosion of industrial growth.

The Wastelands
Weasel
Government: Republic
Military: Average
Economy: Average
Tech: Imperial Age ==> Industrial Age
-Locomotive projects turn towards developing air travel. Failed automobile start-ups start studying aviation.
-The Glacier Community opens up trade once more after an official apology, resting their fears of invasion.
-TGC remains much less dominant in Wasteland trade than they used to be, despite opened borders. A national bank, mint, and central stock exchange have risen up during TGC's absence in the Wasteland economy, resulting in significantly higher financial self-sufficiency.

Eggman Empire
Dr. Ivo Robotnik
Government: Monarchy
Military: Great
Economy: Good
Tech: Imperial Age ==> Industrial Age
-Faroe is claimed.
-The Reich launches a massive invasion of continental territories with aid from Königsberg. Eggmen counterattacks prove futile. They offer to end the war, being that they now control all of the British homelands that they were seeking.

Leninland
Crouching Sloth
Government: Socialist Democratic Republic
Military: Good
Economy: Good
Tech: Imperial Age ==> Industrial Age
-A colonial invasion is launched into Mexico.
-A historical organization is established to catalogue the great achievements of Leninland.
-Money is literally poured into the industrial sector. Buckets filled with money.
-Free public health care is made.
-Rising taxes are making it difficult to compete with government businesses. Even subsidized companies are starting to see their profits decrease.

Königsberg
Vlad
Government: Representative Republic
Military: Great
Economy: Good
Tech: Imperial Age ==> Industrial Age
-The Reich's peace accord is accepted, and British troops occupy their former Earth territories. The Scandinavians are then threatened and, seeing the humility made upon Königsberg, willfully surrender lands under the condition that CBR not expand any more in Europe.
-CBR adopts the Königsberg currency, made fairly easy due to it already being present in the lands they have annexed from Königsberg. Trade relations are extremely strong.
-A few regiments are borrowed out to the Reich to aid in the destruction of the Eggman Empire in Europe. It should be noted that the Reich is either hiding their advanced weapons, or have run out of their supply; they are now using mostly muskets and rifles, like Königsberg.

NERV
Fridge Logic
Government: "Democratic" Military Oligarchy
Military: Good, Glorious Navy
Economy: Good
Tech: Imperial Age ==> Industrial Age
-NERV is competing to become the first and foremost shipbuilding power in the Pacific. Shipyards are heavily funded by the government, and export tariffs are subsidized to make it cheaper to buy from Japan than from anywhere else in the world.
-Universal public health care is put into place.
-A stock exchange and central banking is established.
-After significant military encouragement, aviation becomes a thing many people are willing to invest in greatly.
-The invasion of China continues unbridled. Vietnam issues a "warrant of concern" which essentially is requesting NERV to cease their functions mainland Asia.

Cattonia
madcat
Government: Socialist Democratic Republic
Military: Good
Economy: Good
Tech: Imperial Age ==> Industrial Age
-The Nigerian city states are invaded and successfully occupied.
-Air bases are being established upon the Atlantic isles. Vehicular warfare is being invested in with new planes and tanks being built.
-A national bank and a stock exchange are established.

Sagarmatha
Brucker
Government: Anarcho-communist People's Republic
Military: Average
Economy: Good
Tech: Imperial Age ==> Industrial Age
-Tensions between Hindus and Neo-Buddhists in Bengal reach a tipping point, and riots have broken out on the streets. The issue at hand appears to be the fact that devout Neo-Buddhists refuse to accept the currency system, and Hindus are not hiring or selling to them, resulting in a stark dichotomy of the two groups, forming their own two economic regions within the city.
-Chinese forces perish, largely from attrition, while invading the edge of the glacier region. A massive number of them are captured after an odd sleeping sickness put the lot of them into a deep sleep during the middle of a daytime march. Others suffer from mysterious depression, losing their will to fight and surrendering as quickly as they are found.
-A counter-attack into Communist China after the total defeat of their army captures the region with ease.
-Dirigible and train operators are encouraged to cooperate and coordinate their movements of freight and passengers for maximum efficiency.

Vascony
MDFification
Government: Federal Republic
Military: Average
Economy: Good
Tech: Imperial Age ==> Industrial Age
-Kickassia is invaded and the capital quickly falls. Leader figures either flee or commit suicide, and very few are captured. The entire nation reels with the loss of the central government and most powerful city, and the military-industrial machine implodes.
-Rebels overrun Kickassia and establish their own country, the African Union, obviously completely oblivious to the existence of a similarly named organization to their north.
-Woah, blimps everywhere. Also radio production and medical education.
-The African protectorates remain under Vascon control, despite no good reason for them to remain so.

Military: Average
Economy: Good
Tech: Imperial Age ==> Industrial Age
-Beautification projects are keeping the islands clean and pristine, reserving the uglier, more resource rich locations for factories.
-The economy flourishes as more vacation resorts open and prices drop. Immigrants, especially from SingSong and Vietnam, are helping to populate the western Pacific islands.

Otak Economic Union
Sir Crona Orunitia Equire
Government: Corporate Republic

-Prisons legally become labor camps. Private prisons start lobbying to outlaw a number of mundane activities in order to fill their factories with free workers.
-The nation is renamed to Otak Economic Union.
-The army is trained in guerrilla warfare as their primary tactic. The military is regulated now by the unions, which have imposed complete volunteerism to recruitment.

>tfw you one-shot an emerging superpower

@Syndic U gave me blimps u beatufiul bastard ;-;
i love u 5ever

What. I didnt invade finland.

Finland is a bro. I wanted to invade those two little cities to the southeast of me.

Edit: You know what? fuck it. Everyone else teats NPCs like tasty land cookies, I might as well continue on with this rather than have to retcon stuff.

One last thing, in regards to NERV and their airplane research. We Not-soviets are quite interested in this technology, as we have long been looking for a way to cross the radiation zone into Europe without having to deal with its harmful environment. Not Soviet Russia could easily Elisabeth trade routs into Europe and interior Asia for you in exchange for some airplanes.

Err…is there trouble with the second half of the post?

Morussania? Syserror? Zyergonia? Aeriya? Infitus?

Anyway I would just like to point something out so we are all clear on this:

LOL KICKASSIA GOT PWNED! TROLOLOLOLOL

That is all.

I honestly didn't expect that to work at all. My goal this game is to avoid war as much as possible. Two players getting eliminated by turn 10 was not the plan.

Anyway Morussania and Aeriya are NPC's now. Infinitus was on there. Idk about Syserror and Zyergonia, but odds are they aren't important.

Idk about Syserror and Zyergonia, but odds are they aren’t important.

Oh, Hah Hah. Very funny

ಠ_ಠ

But it looks like you are right. Those nations, including Zyrgonia, have since dropped out

( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

Anyway if my project works out (Syndic knows the one) you could use this flag I guess?

Since you're expanding eastward, can you allow Otak merchants to pass freely through your Chinese borders since I want to trade w/ Vietnam?

Official Message from Vascony

If everything goes according to plan, Vascony Pacific™ will be open for business as of next turn. Pacific nations who wish to trade with Vascony will be happy to know that Vascony will now function as the global hub for trade between the Asian, European and North American continents.

Vascony would also be interested in purchasing Cattonia's Atlantic islands. If you'd care to name your price?
