Colonies of Nibiru XI

He had a courtier, you didn't. it's perfectly fair. Pic related

It's not about this.
It's about potential ally being taken over by a guy who will going to antagonise me for the sake of it and I can pretty much forget about all the plans I had. And when (if) Javmoj will return, the damage will be done already.

It's probably even bigger setback than Newt leaving the game in the moment I needed him most.

[Blatwurst]
Lava magic is still being researched [5/11], and there's only slight progress on the Rune Cannon [2/6].

[New Albion]
The trade route is established [+2 currency/turn], and the techs are sent. The new commandos are nearly ready [4/5]. There's slight progress with Operation Fawkes [1/8] and espionage research [5/6], however Investigation techniques see huge breakthroughs [Investigation IV]!

[Machina]
The powergrid is nearly ready [5/6], and better self-repair protocols are ready [Self-repairing III]. Another Clockwork Man is ready [+9.4 [Siege][Heavy][Anti-personnel][armor-piercing][armored][Bombard: 1][Self-healing][Anti-Air] (-.5 power/turn). A trade route with New Albion is established [+2/turn], and the ALPENE project progresses slowly [1/4].

[Nova America]
The Twin Palaces show great progress [18/25], and the Nova American Engineers are barely helpful to the fairies [9/20; -15 power]

[Dominion]
Rearming is halfway done [5/10], and further Small Arms research begins [2/12]. Only slight progress on the new power plant [1/4], but the farm progresses better [2/4].

[The Circle]
Odab's tools are refined [3/6], and Photosynthesis research plods along [4/5]. Biofuel stalls, and there isn't any accounting project {Progress doesn't carry over}, and the Biolab is nearly expanded [3/5].

[Altech]
Afairika is assisted [11/20], and the programming AI is finally complete [Programming AI I]. An advanced AI is reprogrammed [Advanced AI ---> Intelligence AI], and another [Advanced AI ---> Combat AI].

[Afairika]
Project Libertiria Primus is more than halfway ready [13/20], and another Dropship starts [1/4]. The first Danmaku tank makes progress [3/6], and the second is ready [+7.6 [Bombard: 1]{-2 power/turn}]. The final stretch of portal research begins [3/12].

[Royal Society]
Work on Ethanol power progresses well [5/12].

[Odab]
The quarry is nearly complete [7/8], and ammunition research nearly completes [4/6]. Engineering tech nears completion as well [9/10], but the power plant stalls.

[Mad Medicine/Railgun]
Medicinal research barely shows any progress [9/12], and waterproofing tech completes [waterproofing II]! Espionage tech also completes [Espionage II]. A missile facility is underway [3/6], as wel as the silos [2/4]. Production of the prototype missile begins [3/5], and another doppelganger is nearly turned [4/6]. The security team is nowhere to be found, and small trade routes to New Albion and Afairika are established [+1 currency/turn each].

[Devil Ants]
The invasion finally completes; the ants are in control of the Hunger's former lands! Flyer breeding is nearly complete [3/4], and the general drone undergoes training [3/6]. Greater telepathic abilities are nearly had [4/5].

[STRATOS]
Still no streamlining progress, though another UNIT is made [+4.8 {Flight}[-1 food/turn] ]. Further tech development nears completion [7/8], and STRATOS expands [+5 hex]. Further propulsion rockets are done [Propulsion III], and yet another UNIT is made [+4.8 {Flight}[-1 food/turn] ]. Finally, the final leg of streamlining research begins [1/5], and once again, STRATOS is lucky to expand [+5 hex]

ADDENDUM- MACHINA
Powergrid complete [+4 power/turn]

Even if it doesn't carry over, I've just started the Accounting II anyway, so I would kindly ask for progress on it. Because now it's most definitely +1

Fine, [1/6]

You don't get it, do you? It could have a higher value if you've trade it on higher level. OR you could save yourself the hussle, wait for me to finish it and then ask.

Your post reads pretty much like pic related

Let me do the damage assesment.
Space Vikings dropped from the game.
Hunger got conquered after two threads of inactivity.
Mad Medicine probably dropped too, leaving the nation for taking for own puppet.
The big-ass alliance is still threre and growing in members.
Dominion will most likely join the alliance too.
That leaves me, two barely active guys and ants.
Which means after the ants (I expect 5 turns maximum), I'm next on the list.

Sounds like a lot of fun. Gonna catch a smoke and either post or leave. Because the sole fact without Javmoj I'm now behind by at least 80 progress (which is 35 turns, given or taken) doesn't sound anything, but trouble.

bump

This is accurate as thats exactly what he is doing.

So why dont you go be retarded somewhere else.

Should be +17 a turn

Power I mean

Ok, to cut the crap to minimum and streamline it all to single "yes/no". For obvious reasons I would trade for those in parts, as it's simply impossible to get this done in single diplo-action.

Stop being a prick and you might get some friends.

All I need to know from any of you if you are at all interested in future trade deals.

I will get turn prepared, but most likely won't post it till midnight. Till then I will wait for their answers and my turn most likely won't be accounted up until turn after it, so go figure.
Either way, so far it looks like there might be no turn to account at all.

Yes, because I'm such a prick for past since I've started playing with another nations, while still getting shit in tune of "HURRR KURT DURRR"...
Besides, maybe it didn't occure to you, but there are not enough players left in the game without Javmoj now to get allies that actually both stand a chance and are active enough to matter.

All deals are handled in character and based on previous dealings with a nation. If you wish to interact with STRATOS for any such actions, they need either previous dealings with you or a proper reason to reach for your tech at the time.

So far you basically told me to fuck off when I showed up to strike an opening trade deal, so I'm not exactly sure where you are heading with this whole "we need to make other deals first".

Plus I don't really engage in the whole RP stuff, so it's not going to happen if you are expecting this from me.
But I need clear and to the point statements on that matter instead of going back and forth in circles.

Fine then, don't be upset when you get turned down then.

I'm not upset. I need to know simple "yes/no" to equally simple question of "are you dealing in tech".
Besides, the trade offer is still hanging ( ) and you still dodn't even said a word about it, assuming I'm adressing the right guy now.

That's not me. And once again, it's wholly dependent on how your nation and/or group handles the deal in character. There is not a clear yes or no I can give you at this time.

But for me it's very clear "no". Because I'm not going to write a story about swapping two techs for another two techs, previously writing story about patting each others backs to express friendship. That's the Fairy Guy schtick, not mine.
Guess that's also means "no" to the trade route deal.

One done, two to go.

And honest question - what difference does it make? Just a quick check
>Radio screetches
>Diplo-offer text

>Bunch of treants shows on borders
>Diplo-offer text

It's so meaningless I'm actually curious what difference does it make. Unless you are seriously expecting something really fitting a story, which I don't understand at all.

The Ambassador arrives by Albonian ship to the cold north, nursing the warm cup of tea he had been using to maintain body temperature in these frigid temperatures.

Once they were granted permission to land, he deboarded and entered the sophisticated structures of the STRATOS operation, the insides being much more suited to human life and living.

"My name is Mr. Abersworth, I'm here to speak on behalf of my government and to extend warm feelings of goodwill.

I also have this, an official document detailing a request from our government regarding certain genome technologies.

The Blatwurst Academy has recently reopened for business, and we are interested in sending able bodied future wizards to the academy. Earth science was able to determine that those with the 'Psyker Gene', or 'Wizards Blood' as it were called, were the only ones able to manipulate the Aether, the source of all magic, and this separated them from non-psions or 'muggles' as it were. The knowledge of how to detect this gene in our populace was lost with contact to Earth, hence we have heard it you have managed to map these gene. Access to information of the Psyker Gene would allow us to pinpoint which of our denizes has psionic potential, and thus magical potential.

We are interested in aquiring it, and would like to know if your government would desire a price for it."

Color: green

Fluff: The Taach Okaan (Steel Ones) were once part of a great Bio-ship, a self contained biosphere contained within a large ship, the creators of which where long disappeared. Originally mindless like many of the creatures on the ship, the Taach Okaan evolved to sentience over the course of the ships long journey. Gripped with a powerful curiosity, they soon began tinkering with the ships workings itself, damaging the navigation systems. Eventually the damage from the goblins incessant reverse engineering and cannibalising of the ships engine led the ship to crash on a strange world known as Nibiru. Some of the goblins and exotic life of the ship survived, and spilled out onto the planets surface. Their curiosity as powerful as ever, the Taach Okaan began constructing a new civilisation.

A portal opened up in what was once Mad Medicine's main communication sector. A small arm gingerly throws a suitcase across the room, aiming and missing a desk. After making a flippant gesture, it reclined back into the tear, which afterward quickly sealed itself.

Anybody whom would happen upon said suitcase would most likely find a letter within it.

"Greetings from Afairika;

As you know, the Afairikan Armed Forces remain the strongest in Nibiru, playing an important role in keeping the central Nibirian subcontinent safe and secrure. With the recent developments going on the southern "Hell's Island" as well as the disaster that occured in the halls of Mad Medicine, it has become more important than ever to continue moving forward in order to maintain this positon to ensure the safetey of our future.

Accross the various radio frequencies and even some magical ones, a world pervading radio message shouts out.

"Today, september fourth, 2XXX,

the Kingdom of Devil Ants has invaded the sovereign nation of Hunger,

they have occupied their territories, and all contact with the denizens of Hunger has ceased, the fate of its citizens is hiterto unknown

today is a black day for civilized society, when one nation, in an unprovoked and unwarranted attack has despoiled its neighbor who had lived in peace for many years, and had attempted to communicate with the colony

the Albion Government denounces the actions of the Queen of Ants and the wanton aggression of the Kingdom of Devil Ants and her collective government. The Zombies of Hunger are a strange and curious people, but people nonetheless they have been. Our hopes lie in that they have been taken as prisoner of war, but rumors persist of far worse fates that have befallen these fellow intelligent beings.

Such attrocities have been visited on the world not long ago with the tyrannical Free Army, yet the world, in its devotion to liberty and fraternity of all beings, rose as one to oppose this. Now again the conqueror has shown its face, now again the age of war and aggression lay upon us

This treacherous act and a crime against peace, without just cause or warning upon Hunger, should not go unnoticed and forgotten in the annals of our planets history.

New Albion sends this plea to the world, that we do not let the morals and ethics of civilized society be swifted away by the negligence of those too far to be affected yet close enough to act."

A Radio signal comes up reaching the orcs of Odab.

Igorova stood with a few of the other "notables" in her little madhouse. The only important person in the room other than herself was Madame Carlise: a self proclaimed Mystic and convicted Psychic. Of all the people in the room she was probably the least comfortable. Second to her was Igorova, who never really did like Psychic mumbo jumbo.

"I want you to contact Delta Phoenix and get her status." Igorova repeated for the second time to the stunned and bewilded mystic. Carlise simply shrugged after a long moment and said, "I can try, Madame President, but I did not know Miss Phoenix."

"No of course you didn't. If everyone knew of the program there would be no need for the program in the first place. Just contact her to see if she's alive or not."

Carlise raised her hand slowly, like a diver testing the water of a pool. "Why not just call her on the communication systems?" She asked meekly. There was a long silence as the various sycophants looked between one another, then the President, then the Mystic, then back to the President. "You have tried that haven't you?" She continued, looking confused.

"Of course we have!" Ana Igorova snapped before shooting a glare so hot it could melt neo-steel at two of the uniformed men slinking away like snails covered in salt. "Make contact with the Agent, Madame Carlise. Or you won't leave this room."

"Fine."

The Mystic sat stock still for several long moments. Long enough for Igorovoa to tap her foot and look at the watch around her wrist. Eventually the Mystic's mouth opened and a very different voice came out.

"This is Delta Phoenix, go ahead Command."

"Oh, Agent, good, we were wondering about your whereabouts. We've had reports of an ant invasion by our office in New Kazan."

"Oh there's ants." Came the response. It was distant and hollow, like listening down a well. "They're actually friendly. Just sort of showed up under us one day. A few can speak as well. Have anything you'd like to ask?"

"Quite a few things."

The electro-sensitive drone perked up a bit as a radio wave began to pass, but went back to patrolling when it determined the source was too far away to be an intruder. The drone ignored the zombies that moaned and meandered aimlessly through their city. They had been like this long before the ants set up their nests in the city sewers. The zombie ignored the ant as well as it went on it's search for what ever it was moaning about. The drone did not understand humans speech.

Truth is stranger than fiction, so they say. Perhaps in time, the true nature of the zombie nation would be revealed to the world.

If the world chose to see it.

For now, the ants had no means to communicate, neither did the zombies, all the world new was that the intelligent zombie nation was silent and no more, and the only evidence to what befell them lay covered in ant incursion.

Caesar Meadows greets Aversworth, seating him in his office, now more tidied than when he had previously answered treaties. He pauses at the request for access to the genetic research previously executed by STRATOS before responding, "I understand your want for the locating of those with the gene, but I am uncertain if scientists like Dr. Franz Herrier, who have put most of their life into such research, would be okay with sharing it in its current state. Perhaps once we've progressed such research further, it would be more beneficial to your search. The psycher gene we've heard about is also not naturally occurring to the best of my understanding, and as such is highly unstable. While this may be true, we could artificially introduce the gene to a number of your citizens' DNA, altering them and later their offspring to carry the trait, though the problems that arise with the gene's destabilizing properties are yet to be fully researched. If you have willing subjects, we may be able to introduce the gene to a number of them. Adversely, future investment in the gene will yield a more stable and more prominent result. A lack of magical understanding also bars us from testing whether psychic ability functions under the same rules as magic or an entirely separate system."

"While STRATOS recognizes the act of aggression is not to be tolerated under regular circumstances, we must state that such an actions have not directly affected any of the parties included in this conversation, and it may not be our place to act on such a series of events. A charter built around responding to future aggression by the ants may be necessary and marking them as on a probationary status, but immediate action should not be deemed as an appropriate response as, again, no nation included in current decisions is suffering from any effects of aforementioned conflict."

>Exchange of the GARM maineframe and Plague Missile to New Dominion using my action.

I am the Devil Ants and I support this message.

"Patient is a virtue that is not lost upon Albion. We are open to waiting for the fruition of your tech.

However, while we cannot say that /all/ psionics or magic are the same, the psionics Albion are familiar with are indeed, the same vein as many magics.

However, we admit, there are more things between heaven and heal than dreamt of in our philosophy. Perhaps STRATOS has tapped into a form of psionics unknown to us.

We shall await the day your technology has come to fruition, and return with a better deal."

[STRATOS]
=FLUFF INFORMATION=
-Nation Name: STRATOS
-Nation Race(s): Cloned near-humans with highly reactive skin, binding to materials during the cloning process.
-Color: Maroon
-Fluff: Prior to the resurgence of Nibiru, humanity recognized its eventual downfall that could occur from any number of potential sources. In response, many scientific communities came together to launch the Human Preservation Project [H.P.P.], a series of satellites containing and maintained by clones of some of Earth’s brightest minds in order to extend humanity’s survival. One of these satellites was STRATOS, successfully maintaining its orbit path for dozens of years before being pulled into the orbit of, and eventually colliding with, Nibiru. Minimal damage occurred to STRATOS itself, and the surviving clones began redevelopment of the satellite and furthering H.P.P. tech.

Which one? The one I want or the one I'm offering as "the hottest"?

Scouting helps with search actions and is considered military tech when producing units, can grant [Infiltrate] tag.
Engineering helps with construction - both mechanical elements and buildings. Especially buildings.
Efficiency is catch-them-all tech that streamlines more complex constructions and/or can can decrease the Power use for upkeep of really costly stuff.
Tools are helpful with pretty much everything.
Robotics can be both used for making units and for organising serious factories, which helps with production of stuff.
Material Science allows to pretend your stuff is stronger, but will be most definitely helpful for any vehicle or armor-wearing unit
Green Economy is +1 Currency/turn, while Accounting is +2. Accounting can be also used as weaker version of efficiency.

In short - a bunch of techs that allows to make your basic unit - an infantry with power armor - easier to make, less costly to make and maintain and slightly stronger.

British propaganda in action.

I don't have an attachment to any of the techs you want so I'm open to trades.

I'll do Tactics II and Inf II for Mat Sci 2 and Efficiency 2 AP ammo 1 for Scouting I Ballistics 2 for Engi 3 and Aircraft or Psionics for Accounting. Call me back when you get to a level 3 tech and I'll trade you some mecha or power armor for it or small arms which are coming along nicely.

I'm not interested in any other techs than those I've listed. Really. So I'm not after your Power Armor V or other stuff - just those I've already listed. And will most likely open trade soon.

We already have a trade route.

Add 37 Currency and 12 Power to action 1 to get it done (should be just right enough)

Assuming Wheelie will account me under the just updated turn, I will start the exchange soon

[STRATOS]
Streamlining technology finally completes [Streamlining V]! Preparations to launch STRATOS into orbit begin [4/25], and Tech Development increases [Tech Development III]. Psyker genes are improved [Psyker II].

[Dominion]
Rearming Dominion military continues [7/10], and Small Arms research barely progresses [3/10]. The powerplant is nearly finished [3/4], and action is taken against the ants! The Dominion's military will arrive at the now-defunct GARM Mainframe soon [Next Turn]

[Mad Medicine {Courtier}]
Afairika is assisted [15/25], and submersibles are underway [2/4], as are underwater structures [2/4]. Medicinal research finally completes [Medicine V]! Energy weapons progress nicely [4/12].

[Afairika]
Work continues slowly on Libertiria Primus [16/25], as well as the Dropship [2/4]. The tank is nearly battle-ready [5/6], portals research slows [4/12], and a flight to the moon begins [1/10]! It will be hard to survive there, though.

[Devil Ants]
No psionics progress, and uranium is sprinkled into the food supply [1/6]. Carrier drones are ready [Carrier Drones], and the leader is complete [General Drone +5.6 {Flight}{Leader}{-1 food/turn}. Greater telepathic properties are had [Telepathy II]!

[The Circle]
Tools progress [Tools II]! Photosynthetic abilities are also improved [Photosynthesis II; +2 power/currency//turn]. Biofuel is made more efficient [Biofuel II; +2 power/turn], and scouts are sent to the ruins of the confederation, though it's been a while [2/8]. The Biolab is expanded [Biolab II]!

Eccentricities:
[Industrial Center]: Mining has long been a way of life for the people of Machinia, though they aren't so good at handling other resources.
[Small]: Even the humans of Machinia are small, and so the colony consumes less food than others. However, the constructs they produce are costly in power

Spend 43 currency, 17 ore and 38 power on action 2. We will master the art on construct self-repair now.

"Through the actions of intrepid and pioneering xenobiologists and xenolinguists, the New Dominion has opened contact with the Bug species. They are simply hungry and eating the Hunger's uranium fuel waste. They pose no threat no anyone, and are actually quite nice. If crude. They will defend themselves, and are quite capable of doing so. It is advised that the nations of the world kindly stay away from Bug-Hunger territory, as it's largely an irradiated wasteland now suitable only for the bugs anyway."

"We hear you're the world's first and best creator of Energy Weapons. We'd like your help, and I think we can make a mutual trade for it. We've got both small arms and power armor that we're willing to trade for the latest energy weapon designs."
