The Weekly Update: Week One

This week marked the start of the game. Many things have happened and we're still open for applicants. To help bring people up to speed, there will be an update every week covering all things that nations have done. This includes everything from new nations, to new projects and operations, to new alliances and a variety of stuff. This week started the roleplay strong with the introduction of eleven sovereign nations, one of whom have yet to introduce themselves.


The New Nations

-Kingdom of the Rockies @Fishman Lord;


-The IV Republic of Poland @JJKab;


-The Socialist Republic of Britain @Agent141;


-The Union of Hallelujah @Pat;


-Republic of Korea @okmangeez;


-Singaporean Federation @Alteras;


-The Empire of Manchuria @Emperor Ploppa;


-Free Lands of New Varmadr Vestan @Domini Regum;


-The Empire of Texas @ArisenMoon;


-Great Realm of Yamatai @beakershell;


-Las Gentes Unidas de la República de Oroguay @Macflare;


New Alliances

Singaporean Federation-The Socialist Republic of Britain (Singapore has not received reply from the British, so technically not in effect);


New Trade Partners

The IV Republic of Poland - The Socialist Republic of Britain;


Singaporean Federation - The Socialist Republic of Britain;


Ongoing Wars

The Empire of Manchuria - Republic of Korea;

Battles

The Battle of Pyongyang started off the Manchurian-Korean war. Through a series of miscommunications and the misinterpretation of enemy units, Manchuria moved forward to take the city of Pyongyang from the "organized mercenaries" (Korean Army). Korea was unable to respond in a timely manner to these advances and ignored Manchurian signals (irl Korea is inactive). In a large show of power to those who watched via satellite (Singapore, Manchuria, and Korea), Manchuria has definitely defined themselves as a force to be reckoned with. More information on Manchuria and Korea can be found in the character sign up page.


Technological advances

The Union of Hallelujah is about to complete the Lazarus Project, a system to purify air in the metros of Moscow. Britain retains a communication satellite. Korea, Manchuria, and Poland retains old world surveillance satellites. Singapore has decrypted the Korean satellite signal but has not gained control. Singapore is currently attempting to attach a giant laser to an old battleship. Singapore has established a rail system between Bangkok, Ho Chi Minh, Hanoi, and Singapore. Free Lands of New Varmadr Vestan continues to move resources to scientific output, education, and industrial output.


Territorial Gains

The Socialist Republic of Britain has unified the British Isles and taken France. Republic of Poland has taken Lithuania, Latvia, Belarus, Slovakia, part of the Czech Republicand Half of Ukraine. Singaporean Federation has taken, Kalimantan Island, Sulawesi Island, Bangkok, Ho Chi Minh, Hanoi, and Java Island. The Great Realm of Yamatai has landed at the northern most point of Taiwan. They intend to take the Philippines as well. Free Lands of New Varmadr Vestan has gained Columbia, Peru, north half of Chile, Amazon rainforest, Fort on Baja bay. The Empire of Manchuria has taken Pyongyang. The Empire of Texas steadily expands to include the majority of the USA.


Diplomatic Channels

Poland and Britain has agreed to a non-aggression pact. Britain has sent scout planes in all directions. Poland has sent planes as well. The Union of Hallelujah maintains hostilities. The Kingdom of the Rockies has contacted the British scouts. Singaporean Federation is awaiting the British Asian Squadron to escort a representative back to Britain. Singapore has sent a fleet to greet Manchuria, Korea, and possibly Japan. They have set planes to the southern most city of Taiwan to resupply the fleet. Varmadr Vestan has setup embassies in Rome and Lisbon. Poland has setup a respective embassy in Belem, Brazil.


Small Stuff

Texas found an old fishermen.


Bottom Line

Nations are rapidly expanding to account for food, technology, and protection. Non-aggression pacts have been made to allow for more time to grow. Manchuria is quite possibly the strongest nation so far in terms of military (see battles).

Actually, the Lazarus Project will make the air of the surface of Moscow breathable. If the Moscow Metro's air was toxic my nation wouldn't exist, a majority of my country still being underground, people being stuffed into every nook and cranny and fed with oily protein bars from roaches.

(But still, ye gotta admit, this is pretty nice)

haha, sorry, I'll fix

(But still, ye gotta admit, this is pretty nice)

Thank you very much.

This is OCC, isn't it? But yeah, its pretty nice.

 

[Rysesaka]

Guys I'm gonna be inactive for several days because I'm going to enjoy my vacation with my family. So yeah.

 

[Lord Bradorian]

Well I'm a little late.

 

[wulfle]

Hey guys. I can has nation or is this full?

 

[Clockwork_Magic]

Go ahead.

 

[Dominus Regum]

Well I'm a little late.

Hey guys. I can has nation or is this full?

Nah bros, y'all good.

 

[Dominus Regum]

Second, is it just me or is it getting a little bit more advanced than imagined?

 

[Alteras]

[QUOTE="Domini Regum]Second, is it just me or is it getting a little bit more advanced than imagined?

[/QUOTE]
i'm feeling the same way... I was under the assumption that there are technology (laser pistols and the like) but in very low amounts, sorta like an elite team instead of standard issue.

Ya... I thought my nation was advanced with modern tech. I was thinking that it would be ww 2 era tech mainly

 

[Grammatic]

I'm just following everyone else's leads.

I'm just following everyone else's leads.

I know.


Tbh, the way it seems to be going is very advanced (e.g. Photon Railguns, advanced power armour, orbital nukes)

 

[wulfle]

Well I was going to have a military of a few thousand but have them use power armor and Gauss rifles and all kinds of crazy shit but if that's how we're doing it, then okay.

If your military is only a few thousand, i don't have a problem with it. That's possible. Arming 500 thousand troops is different

Oh cool then. So how many would you be okay with to have the "average" trooper using an exoskeleton (I don't like COD so it's going to be hard to not draw parallels between this and that...) that increases their strength, speed, accuracy and mental acuity (<- haven't decided on this one either...Maybe with genetic modification or cybernetics.)? I mean, it would obviously be unfair if I had hundred of thousands of these guys shot to earth in drop-pods from aircraft that can go ten to fifteen times the speed of sound. Also, on that note, how fast can my aircraft go, how many weapons would be considered "fair" and what tech would be applicable to them? I don't want to give myself an unfair advantage but I'd also like to be a civilization that values technology and knowledge very, very highly, to almost the point of currency.


Also, last thing in this wall of text, I want to claim the eastern part of Canada, if no one has already...

About less than a half of a quarter is fine, like your Elite Troops or something. Aircraft, and all other large mechanisms like tanks and ships, are the same as in our time. Most of the population of Earth fled to underground bunkers when the nukes hit. Everyone else mutated/died. They would have not developed better aircraft, tanks, etc. as they were too big for those bunkers, and not needed at all. Now that your people fled from the underground, they could develop on those things. So, the average speed of aircraft is around the speed of a jet fighter, until you improve on that, but don't make it so that they are so fast nothing can hit it. The Eastern part of Canada looks free so go ahead.


Also, can we not have anymore nukes.

What about miniaturized, combat, fission projectiles?

I'm sorry, didn't quite get that.
