Region: The Confederacy of Free Nations

History

I cast my vote today for my local council. I hope the SNP win as many councils as possible across Scotland but if not, I hope they at least win my local council.

Thats really kinda dumb. ive never heard of anything like that in the states.

A man without his organs in 1940's would die of massive internal hemorrhaging from ripping out his own organs, and that's if he got excellent medical care. Men without it would be dead in a matter of hours.

Furthermore, the little bit where they all speak as one is patently dubious for obvious reasons -though some form of nervous response involving echoing what others say is valid, it would take place after the first was done speaking, or would have kept going- and that's ignoring how owlish the whole tale reads as.

But that's all unrelated to using it in NS...which won't really work.

The thing is, it'll have to be an extreme duration exposure, and it's unlikely for that to occur before they leave and their body cleanses itself. At best you give those soldiers extra-time on watch, at worst they get into NBC protected vehicles and leave.

You belive what you want and ill do the same. Work in this Region

no

In others

yes

Also it's really more along the lines of. It dissolves your organs, rots your flesh, and you throw up blood before you fall over and you just throw up what's left in there. Basically it kills you from the inside and rots your flesh. Yes it is volatile and yes it has its weaknesses but I didn't put that in for obvious reasons. It's supposed to sound OP but it's not supposed be. Only sound like it is. If I really wanted to make it OP I would just say it kills everything instantly and leave it at that. It's meant to be ingested in its normal form because it's a clear liquid that seeps into the ground and water systems. The gas variant is far less effective because it's diluted and extremely volatile. That's why you'll never see the gas version.

How are we supposed to get that sort of information?

How in the world are we supposed to find out that it is volatile and dangerous (even for your own people) when the only information about it is in a factbook?

From just reading what little information there is about it (OOC, I might add; little to no reason to embellish your toy's capabilities there), you're making it sound both unrealistic and really unfair in a game sense.

If I told you OOC that I had a plague that I could deploy at any time that was both undetectable and so strong that it melted your organs and could be so infectious that it infected the water supply, would that seem fair to you? How are you, an OOC person, supposed to know that it is very dangerous for everyone involved and only useful when it is in the water, when the only person that knows such is me?

In 2001 an international phenomenon began in which people reported their religion as “Jedi” in censuses.

70 000 Australians (or 0.37% of the population) and 21 000 Canadians listed themselves as Jedi in 2001, and 15 000 Czechs said they were Jedi in 2011.

In England and Wales, Jedi was the fourth largest reported religion in the 2001 census, with 390 000 Jedi (0.7% of the population), surpassing Sikhism, Judaism, and Buddhism.

New Zealand had the highest number of Jedi per capita, with 53 000, 1.5% of the population in 2001. It was the second largest religion in the country.

This has also been observed in Croatia, Ireland, Montenegro, Serbia, and Scotland.

As someone with a personal vandetta against the census- or, rather, the threat of fine or imprisonment for not completing the census- this makes me so happy.

As an admirer of the Sith and their emphasis on ambition and meritocracy, this is alarming.

"Jedi is a religion of peace" my left testicle. With all these Jedi "Warriors" running around trying to establish a Jedi Republic, am I really supposed to believe that?

Yukona wrote:Please, if you wouldn't mind on both the closures and the new embassies

The closure reason is quite easy actually. During the second administration the MoFA released a new policy allowing us to create embassies and consulates with foreign regions. This new policy allowed us to start negotiations and start diplomatic ties with the Pacifics, Europeia and other significant regions. Relations which quite ended with the fall of the second administration and the rise of the third.

I don't want to be critical about MD's reign over our Foreign Affairs, but from what I can tell is that he/she wasn't aware about this policy and they seemed to be accepting everyone without having the staff or the ability to maintain such an enormous expansion, plus our already started relations with big regions stopped and nobody cared from our side to prevent that.

The regions that I chose to close embassies with were simply small, or with no official links to their forums or constitution or were on their way to increase. Either way, my philosophy is, that we should be looking for quality partners rather than quantity partners. I want our region to be working closely with its partners and not become just another number in the long list of these regions embassy section.

As for the two regions we're currently opening embassies with. I am too skeptical about The Versutian Federation as I was informed that Valt is in there? That Embassy was agreed to be constructed before I was yet in office and two of our members, Oelesa and Unf asked me to be negotiating from our regions side with them.

As for the second one, I have worked before with them and they are cool guys that we can (always in my opinion) start great things together :)

I'd like to contribute to this discussion:

It's right that we need active and qualified partners. But I don't think that just the big names like the Pacifics or Europeia can fulfill those requirements. There are many small regions that are very active and have the potential to be valid partners. We shouldn't just look for the big guys and turn away from the small regions because some of the big guys with their already huge foreign relations doesn't care that much for their 'newbies' among them.

So I say, even if it isn't my department and none of my business, that we need to look at all regions not just the big names.

It's like with computer games: The big studios make good games but there are also indie studios which can make great games.

When I was MoFA I just made sure they at least had a working government, a founder and over 30 citizens. Another thing was if we had room, back with Ambassadors. Too many regions and not enough Ambassadors would have some issues.

Of course, of course. Never said that we should take more than we can handle. Just said that we shouldn't do an onesided unbalanced search for new regions.

Not gonna say a lot because there isn't a lot of weird stuff with it, TBH.

The V-22 is basically a more expensive -I know the US military doesn't say it is, they like to falsify reports though- helicopter. Losing it is like using a more expensive helicopter TBH.

This "Sparrow-Hawk" will have trouble marketing it's ATG capability if it tries to attack at super-sonic speeds. You still need to lock on, which either means you're flying straight into their guns and missiles to get a clear sight-line, or you have half a second to drop the bomb. Beyond that, I ain't certain if you mean variable as in "Variable Wing Geometry" like the F-14 did, or that it can alter it's engine performance. The wing is going to screw you because of how complex and heavy the mechanism is, the engine meanwhile is Gen-Six tech.

Like I said, not much to say but yeah. Wasn't that bad, actually.

Gen-6 is the next generation of fighters and bombers. They are advanced in today's aspect and aren't supposed to be in full service production till about 2025 unless Northrop and Boeing pull another oh we have to delay again gib us more moneys. Yet there have been successful tests of the engines and weapons systems they are far from being implemented into an actual ground or air vehicle.

Kinda, though there isn't a plan for such planes yet and only concepts of what may be put on it have been tested to slight extents.

Specifically, Gen Six is a concept for the next generation of aircraft. The United States doesn't know much about what they want but they're stupidly reaching for mountains again.

My reference was to the engine, which possibly might need to be variable bypass for it to happen.

Would a Variable Bypass Engine be allowed in our MT gameplay? If so that's the option I'm probably going with.

As the resident know it all on weapons -and mod- I would say you can, provided you give it a weakness.

Much like a multifuel engine -non-turbine, that is- I recomend placing a limitation upon it for why every engine wouldn't provide the same (example, though it can sustain a high speed, it's heavy and acceleration is low)

We're building an RP world, so give reason.

Frankly, NG can provide as many ads for planes as it wants to, it means literally nothing about the plane itself. The Air force doesn't actually know what they want if they plan to add all the things they say they will.

Tbf, the culminative cost is such that they'll probably settle for F-18XT if they even want to change...which they wont.
