Great! Thanks, Wyoming! The engines and industries of Sodor are very grateful for your coal, and we were happy to work with your fine nation! My Finance Minister Edward is processing your payment, and you should get your money for the coal in a few days.

There's more, but they aren't done. Some of these are due to be rewritten. I'm working on an FCS style network RN too.

Checking it out now.

Kinda, it's pretty important but it's not a big part in terms of time spent unless you make your own stuff.

Yeah, it honestly depends with my nation. It's not that hard to get cleared for trading military wares with my country unless you

1) Commit crimes against humanity

2) Commit war crimes

3) Threaten Concord Nations

4) Also maybe having Chemical Weapons

Those are pretty big items that dissuade us, though admittedly, The quality of one's RP conduct is also a factor.

Humorously, at one point, Kalaron was embargoed by a guy named Latrovia for selling """WMDs""" in the form of bullets. For his embargo, three-fourths of the world embargoed him after a day.

The effect on your government would be nearly the same, but I think a Principate would be easier to get along with. Speaking for me personally.

Kalaron, would it be possible to build essentially modern-day versions of the WWII Battleships? I'm only planning on 5.

I am not Kalaron. However, I will tell you. An actual honest to goodness Battleship, with the guns, and size, and the armor. Yes. It could be done, no real problem. However it probably will not be very effective as a warship.

However if you mean a modern version of a battleship, then what you are probably looking for is what is now called an Arsenal Ship. There are a few of them floating around in our RP world, I myself have one. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arsenal_ship I would classify that as a modern Battleship.

It depends, you could but they are effectively useless for all intents and purposes but shore-bombardment, and they aren't that good at that either. There are a lot of reasons that BBs got phased out, but I'll spare you them now :P

Those too are possible, though upon reviewing the idea I really can't say it's that great unless one does it for cultural reasons.

What's the difference between a Principate and Dominate? Also, why would the former be better for you, Tse?

You guessed it! I'm doing it for cultural reasons. (I'm a history buff IRL, and I love the WWII BB's. So... even if they don't see combat, why not?) xD
