Botwawki 2.6

I KNEW IT! And they called me MAD, MAD!


...now to go hide.
 
The only question I want to ask is if New Panama will develop as an npc. I would hate to have made it an npc only for it to stay weak. My goal was to have a faction consisting of independence coastal settlements like how Greek was in the past.

Spoiler Doctor’s Challenge :

We have imprisoned the young killer in a basement and this has led to a new dispute. He is only six years old, and yet has been responsible for the cold-blooded murder of so many people. Some believe we should execute him for his crimes, while others balk at killing such a young child. How do we respond to this issue?


Spoiler Doctor’s Solution :

The child in question will be transferred to the new jail once finished construction. Rehabilitation will continue.


Spoiler Orders :

-Construct Jail for 300 scrap.

- a 100 strong scavenging expedition (70 1-H, 25 2-H, 5 HW) will probe deeper into Savannah, stopping if they hit heavy resistance or incur heavy casualties.
 
Imperial American News

The official Newspaper of the Empire of America



- His Imperial Majesty Emperor Felix V

Hello American citizens! In this paper, you will read about the interview of His Imperial Majesty (story 1), the Government Announcement on the Education of French Language (story 2) and the expedition of General Michael Petraeus in the unknown lands (story 3).

Interview of His Imperial Majesty

- The article was written by reporter Jimmy Lincoln

Three days ago, I talked with the Secretary of His Imperial Majesty about my idea to have an interview with His Imperial Majesty. Yesterday, the Secretary came to my office and told me that His Imperial Majesty has accepted with delight my offer. And thus, here is the interview:

Jimmy (J): Your Imperial Majesty, I want to thank you for accepting my invitation.

Felix (F): Your are welcome.

J: My first question is about the expedition of General Michael Petraeus in the unknown lands. Why should we explore the outside world?

F: The main axons of the American Empire are Bonapartism and Autarky. The first part of our ideology, Bonapartism, has mostly succeeded: America is a strong and centralized state under one enlightened Emperor, me. The second part of our ideology, however, Autarky, is still far from a success.

Autarky means self-reliance, something that America does not have right now, as our resources are limited. So, we need to expand our Empire and gain control of new resources. America needs a Lebensraum. So, the expedition of General Michael Petraeus is of vital importance for the survival of the Empire.

J: On the issue of French language, why do you think that it should be a mandatory skill?

F: Except for paying tribute to Napoleon Bonaparte, French have practical military use: our soldiers can communicate in French, a language that almost no one will know in the wastelands, so even if a potential enemy manages to overhear our soldiers or has send spies to infiltrate our ranks, they will not be able to understand a thing. It is like secret military codes.

J: Indeed. Why do you think that Bonapartism will succeed?

F: Because France has shown twice that Bonapartism can take a nation and make it an Empire. The collapse of both French Empires was a result more of military mistakes than a fault of Bonapartism itself. Bonapartism, as I have said above, represents the need for a strong and efficient centralized state able to secure the welfare of the people and Imperial Expansion of state in new territories. Those are our goals and we have so far had success.

J: Thank you for answering my questions.

F: You are welcome.

Government Announcement on the Education of French Language

The Government of the Empire of America hereby announces:

Law #1345
Education of French Language
- Authorized by the Emperor Felix V Jackson and the Imperial Government

The Emperor of the Empire of America, Emperor Felix V Jackson, with the authorization of the Minister of Internal Affairs, Alexander Klerk, hereby announces:

  1. The French language is to become a mandatory skill for all soldiers of the Empire.
  2. Soldiers who take lessons have to take part in Imperial Exams which shall give them a certificate of having knowledge of French.
  3. On military operations, units with French Speakers will communicate in French.

- Signed,

Emperor Felix V Jackson
Minister of Internal Affairs, Alexander Klerk

Expedition of General Petraeus


60 soldiers under the command of General Michael Petraeus are expected to begin an expedition in the wastelands to find new resources and conquer new land for the Empire and the Nation. The soldiers will all be heavily armed and ready to fight hard against any potential enemy, but General Petraeus has been given orders not to risk the lives of his men and to orderly retreat if he faces very tough opposition.

The men selected for the expedition were paid a visit yesterday by His Imperial Majesty himself, who talked to them about the importance of the mission and that the fate of the Empire lies with them. The Emperor has also stated that those who return from the expedition shall be awarded with an Imperial Eagle standard as well as with a "Napoleon Bonaparte" bravery medal.

One of the soldiers, named Nick, stated to one of our reporters: "I feel very honored to be able to be part of this expedition and to be able to render my services to the Emperor and the Empire. I will do my best and if we face any enemies, I shall either defeat them or I will die fighting."
 
A Letter to Headman Julie Keyes, Survivalist Union
From Queen Jayne Bede, Sunshine Kingdom

We are planning on sending the planned expedition to Southern Florida within the year. Is that acceptable to the Survivalist Union?
 
@poketwo: There were three weeks, and numerous warnings between the two updates. There's no objection to rejoining as a new faction elsewhere, but the Citadel is dead and gone.
 
I will be theoretically beginning the next update on Wednesday, get those orders in by then!

In about 6-seven months time, or a month or two? If the former, we can probably accommodate.


EQ:

Any information milked from those merchants about the south?
Order in tomorrow during the day.
 
@Darksaber: There is no one to trade with to the south, so no.

Headman’s Challenge solution:
Spoiler :
Well, my personal favourite star would, of course, be Vera Keyes but then her films were fairly awful. Of the two sets being debated, I would suppose that I would favour Gable. Although, I did like The Treasure of the Sierra Madre. Saw that years ago when we found a copy of it. Does anyone in town have one?


Orders:
Spoiler :
Scavenging/Military
We will send a hundred men (10 lasers, 40 2-H, 50 1-H guns, as well as with 30 LT melee) south with the Sunshine Kingdom Expedition. Stick close with them, but don’t trust them blindly. Share the work, and keep an eye out for finds, to make sure they are evenly shared. If it seems that the expedition is becoming too dangerous (as in, mass casualties likely) then stop advancing. If the Royalists want to continue, then offer to wait for a few weeks, keeping their back and the route clear. While cooperation and profits are important, blindly marching into the Swamp to die won’t help anyone.

In addition

A smaller force will camp out in the areas scouted last turn, setting up a depot in a suitable spot for a settlement. They will be composed of 35 men (5 lasers, 15 2-H, 15 1-H guns) as well a lot selected group of 50-70 odd people, and will gather salvage from the area and take in to the depot site to save travel time. This loot will be stored for the planned settlement construction. In the event of trouble, the armed team will cover the unarmed group to retreat to Liberty City.


Construction:
No construction this turn. Saving up.


To: Kingdom

Ok, we'll meet at my place. Just so you know, I have ordered given order to my team about extreme danger. We don't have a standing army, and these guys are mostly volunteers. Also, I cannot order our citizens to march to there death without a maldito good reason. So if thing look to hopeless they will hold position to cover your forces rear for a few weeks. I don't expect your leaders to do something like that but... well, worth the failsafe, ya sabes?
 
Orders are to be send tomorrow.
