IOT: Here and Now

[spaceman98]

Buy 1 Infantry. If this is not allowed without a base, take money out of the factory budget to build a Military Base in the same province where the city goes
Put the rest into factories (evenly distributed between the provinces), except 5, which will go to build 1 city in the capital.
Put extra into espionage research
We would like to join the African Union

 

[Tyo]

I'ma join as Israel. More on that, later.

Holy mackerel, I can see why this took a while! Great work on this! Just to confirm against my own tables, you're applying the penalty to net income, including trade?

Also, will you be posting full stats each update? Cuz... that'd be crazy generous.

Well I don't see why. Physically. I can't open .xlsx files because I use the (superior) 2004 form of Office.

 

[Thorvald of Lym]

OpenOffice.

 

[Double A]

I don't know the meanin of the word!

... Literally.

 

[Thorvald of Lym]

Free, open-source office suite.

 

[Double A]

It's gonna take 45-60 minutes to download. Not happening.

 

[christos200]

Germany proposes the European Union, to promote trade and conduct diplomacy amongst all European nations (Includes Turkey and Malta)

Greece would join if turkey was not included. They are muslims and the rest of europe is christan.

Also North Epirus, South albania, has a huge greek population!!!!!!! This territory should be Greek.

built 2 factories, 1 Military Base and the rest into Infantry.

 

[Mosher]

France'll join the EU

Britian tells you that if you want it so badly, then stop whining and try to take it. Ortherwise, we don't want to hear it.

Anyways, we do not join the EU. We are in Europe but not a part of it and you know why.

We instead propose a new Commonwealth of Nations for the free nations of the former British Empire. Much like the EU and the African Union, it will exist to promote trade and diplomacy throughout the English speaking world. So why not join? We have free tea and crumpets at every meeting!

 

[Double A]

Ok, I'm obviously not downloading OpenOffice, so can someone just tell me how much money I have? And CO, can you save it as a version comapatible with 2004 next time? I doubt I'm the only person who still uses it in this game.

Greece would join if turkey was not included. They are muslims and the rest of europe is christan.

Also North Epirus, South albania, has a huge greek population!!!!!!! This territory should be Greek.

built 3 factories and the rest into Infantry.

I'm not even going to begin to go into how many Muslims and Hindus there are in countries which don't have it as their national religion, so I'll just mention Albania and call it a day.

Ed. note: Previous excerpts from the Chronicles of King John of Canada may have been interpreted to infer some sort of worldwide catastrophe. The staff wishes to assure readers that the phrase "global collapse of infrastructure" is not intended to imply apocalyptic events. We apologize for any misunderstanding.

INDUSTRIAL REVITALIZATION was well underway as more and more cities were reconnected with federal and provincial offices. The economy was slowly finding traction, but it would likely be a few years before national productivity was back to full speed. Speaking of economy, an article had landed on the king's desk concerning a British proposal for a trade alliance amongst the Commonwealth. King John pondered for a moment, then tore off a sheet of paper and began drafting a submission for application. Given Canada's prior relations with the commonwealth states, solidifying economic exchange seemed a most logical course of action. He decided to investigate the American Trade League once GDP had stabilized.

The next order of business was to reconstitute the RCMP. Beginnings being such delicate times, especially in these circumstances, the national police force would soon be playing an active role in overseeing the reconstruction effort. King John was somewhat irked that in spite of the nebulous subsidies that allowed urban planning and manufacturing to sell for a pittance, hiring an able officer cost five times the capital.


6 cities, 13 factories, 1 army base.
Train 2 police officers.

Ok, so, here's the old excel tables. Let me know if any data failed to properly transfer.
Also:
Research labs will now give a 15% research bonus.

A question came up in chat about peacefully annexing a country.
For this purpose, I have created Confederations.

Confederations are comprised of two or more nations, who have both agreed to join together. Each nation will have votes (based upon its original power), which I will determine. Every action of a confederation must go to a vote. In addition, confederations will be more likely to suffer from revolutionaries, and NPC diplomacy will be made more complicated.

If they still become overpowered, I will give economic issues, as well.

Note that, for sake of gameplay, players cannot make Confederations with another player nation.

OP will be updated with these changes soon.

Edit for Rules Clarification:
Unless you are using a sneak attack or black ops, wars and battle sites must be posted in this thread.

Diplomacy Notices:
Barbados, Jamaica, and Belize apply to join the Commonwealth of Nations.
Venezuela and Namibia reject their respective offers.

World News:
Greece's irredentist claims on Albania have been met with hostility from the majority of the international community, though a few notable exceptions have occurred.
Most notably, Macedonia has offered assistance to the Greeks in any potential conflict with Albania.

Likewise, the Greco-Turkish tensions have raced across the globe, with far-reaching consequences. All EU members have been called upon to vote for the nation they wish to admit.
As a result of this conflict, Greco-Muslims are revolting in Eastern Greece.

Elsewhere in the world, a series of attacks were carried out by three organizations:
The Order of Malum, based in Italy
A Mexican-Empire Reconquista organisation
The Brotherhood of the Pacific, an international operation aiming to create a united indigenous Polynesian state.

 

[Mosher]

France supports the admission of Turkey

 

[Double A]

AssumingI'm in the EU, I support the addition of Turkey. If not, I ask admittance and then support Turkey.

Spain, Portugal: Confederation?

 

[CivOasis]

Spain and Portugal both decline confederacy. (OOC: Probably good for you, as they would completely dominate you in votes)
However, both would be interested in an alliance.

 

[christos200]

1) Sent 1/3 of the army to destroy the rebels. Before destroying them ask them if they want to make peace by giving Thrace an autonomus province status.

2) Greece asks a confederacion with Macedonia under the name << United Republics >> (UR).

3) Greece declares war on Albania.

Note: We will occupy only North epirus. The rest of Albania that[ has an alabnian population will remain free. We only want to free the Greek population.

 

[christos200]

If i am in the EU, Greece will accept turkey only if turkey becomes more democratic and have a greater freedom of speech and religion. If these things happen then Greece will accept turkey. If not then we wont accept turkey. Also before turkey enters the EU we will have to solve this problem: the Aegean dispute.(http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aegean_dispute)

Christos:
You can only afford 1 army.
You are not a member of the EU yet (and from the sound of things, likely won't be), butthose are issues the EU could help resolve...
