How many potatoes in one airdrop and how large are the potatoes on average?

Depends on the aircraft but the average spud is usually around the size of a baseball or two.

Har. Regardless, I did recall that at one point in the discord (I think? Or maybe it was the forums, or the message board...) someone pitched their little thing for three different RP planets, one of which was for straight survival in an area of near constant conflict. Anyone got the links from that? As I do recall they were forum roleplays. Just curious, granted, if my hazy memory failed me, I suppose I'm easily debunked.

I got an international incident set up involving pirates. Could go the easy "lets kill em all" route or a more complex route.

I guess it all depends on the message you want to send to allies, enemies and the actual pirates. One of fear where there is consequences for messing with your nation. Or one of cooperation where you deal with others fairly and evenly.

It's mostly ex-pats from various other minor nations, so honestly, Gonswanza is considering just dumping marines on it to kill 'em all and retake the ships. The problem is that trackers are off, radios were shut down. The navy's blind in that respect, hence, allies and others are invited to try to intervene.

Indeed. Especially if the pirates can be dealt with in a more peaceful and bloodless manner, rather than blind fury that will put the lives of civilians in danger. Civilians that again come from various nations, Gonswanza included. The media's response would be a harsh stab in the back for the current administration with calls to defund the military or cull the marines and possibly even scale back the mandatory military service given it has "bred nothing but serial killers with a penchant for destruction"

Alas if it's someone else doing it they may have a far better way of handling it.

Makes a lot of sense. You donÂ’t want to lose your reputation or power to an incident like this. Hopefully one of your allies (if they intervene) might be able to get more information on them without having to go in blind.

So far I got one biter, but it seems (at least, on discord) that few if any are actually interested in these kinds of things, preferring to go for trade instead.
