You mean like that?
I will decide upon the color at a later date. Let that be a provisionary one.
Strange. It was much larger when I viewed it... what shrunk it, I wonder.

OK, this is for everyone: when you send the maps, try to send only the pieces. Or, if you are sending the whole map, send it at the whole size, don't send a smaller version, it makes it impossible to actually know where the buildings are.

Seon, certain hosting sites will adjust the size without asking you, and you just have to read all the details and unselect resize. (with imageshack, you can have it "optimize without resize".)
I've kept trying to use this Paint.net program, but now I'm having difficulties with pasting the buildings over after painstakingly drawing the tower. I don't think I'm literate enough with this program and will have to withdraw. I'm sorry, perhaps I should have been more definite when encountering the first problems earlier.
Good Luck

I'm quite surprised that it was so difficult for you to draw with Paint.NET, but I'll have to accept your retiring from this NES.

@Everyone: I'm working with Update 0 right now. Hopefully, I'll have it soon.

EUROPEAN FEDERATION ELECTIONS
Last May 9th the elections for both the President of the European Federation and the regional Prime Ministers were held. The incumbent President, Jane Hathaway from the United European Socialist Party was chosen with a 58% of the popular vote and 321 European Members of Parliament, while Silvio Minalli from the European People's Party took 35% of the popular vote and 145 EMPs, with the remaining 9% of the vote and 34 EMPs went to third parties, such as several nationalist parties from around Europe. Also, regional Prime Ministers were elected, with a balance of 20 UESP PMs and 16 EPP PMs. President Jane Hathaway has promised that the current policies of improving healthcare all over Europe, as well as infrastructure, will continue, as well as collaboration with the United Nations to continue policing worlds to prevent rogue organizations such as Al-Qaida from gaining the technology required to expand operations to other worlds and funding the Alterrestrial Corps to provide for more resources.
SKIRMISHES IN IRAN-IRAQ BORDER
Starting on June 14th , several low and middle level skirmishes have erupted between Iranian Revolutionary Guards and Iraqi border forces, with a result of 13 dead and 50 injured on the Iraqi side, and at least 15 dead and 40 injured on the Iranian side. Islamic Republic of Iran Broadcaster (IRIB) has released a video in which Ayatollah Jamenei, current Supreme Leader of the Revolution, in which he places the blame of the first skirmishes on Iraqi troops, and demands economic compensation as well as the extradition of the soldiers that caused the Iranian deaths to be judged, but soon proof was revealed in the form of actual video footage of said border incidents, in which it could be seen how Iraqi troops patrol the border and are then attacked by Iranian troops. This situation was seen repeated in most of the incidents across the border. Iraq Foreign Minister Abdul Mashmahad has replied to the Ayatollah's demand by stating that the proof clearly shows that it is the Irani Army who is in the wrong in this situation. After more than a century in peace, the Middle East could explode once more in warfare.
ATTACK AGAINST VAN WERUN-VELLION'S MAIN HEADQUARTERS IN ARGENTINA
An unknown attacker entered Van Werun-Vellion's HQ in the Republic of Argentina, armed with several guns and a belt full of military-grade explosives, and demanded to be allowed access to the headquarters' Machine. Attempts by the unarmed personnel to stop him there were met by shooting into the air and continuous demands to access it, on pain of death to everyone if they weren't met. One of the workers there managed to gain enough nerve to lead the would-be suicide killer on a wild goose chase around the building while some other people managed to call the police and evacuate everyone. As the police arrived and surrounded the building, the brave worker managed to lose the attacker in the labyrinth of offices and get away from him. Upon realising that he was alone, the attacker attempted to seek the machine on his own, but a Agrupación de Fuerzas de Operaciones Especiales battallion managed to enter the building and apprehend the madman. The identity of the worker hasn't transpired yet, but the Argentinian government has given him the highest civil condecoration in the country for his valiant action.
RAIDS ON REICH-3 LEAVE 1 DEAD, 6 INJURED, RESCUES 4000 PEOPLE FROM DEATH CAMPS
In a raid on the world known as Reich-3 (a world in the year 1950 where Germany reigns unopposed in Continental Europe and in a Cold War with the British Empire and the United States), Israelite Maccabees managed to launch an attack on a death camp in that Earth's Palestine, managing to subdue the guards and saving 4000 people of both Jewish and Arab extraction, resettling them on Israel and their colony in Masada-1. The success of this attack has not only provided for proof that can be presented to that Earth's British Empire and United States of Nazi Germany's evils, but also for an opening in potentially saving more people and helping defeat them in the future. Amnesty International has applauded their work and encouraged other nations to follow Israel's example.
MYSTERIOUS DISAPPEARANCE OF 10 COLONISTS IN LYANNON
The city of New Manchester in Lyannon has warned about the mysterious disappearance of 10 colonists. So far, the reasons behind this disappearance are unknown. The only common point between the ten people is that all of them worked at a construction company in charge of expanding the city's borders, and that all of them had been present at a certain place, making plans for the eventual construction of a new flat block in there, and that, at the following day, all of them had disappeared from their homes without a trace. Policemen have been investigating the whole scene, and, while they believe they might have been kidnapped, no hypothesis is being discarded.
WEGENER-2 OPENED TO EXPLORATION
After a 6-month long study of Wegener-2, Van Werun-Vellion Incorporated released the coordinates to this planet, which holds great quantity of utapped resources that may as well be amongst the most important ever to be found in an alternate world. It is the belief of VWV Inc that this great quantity of resources may have something to do with the different movement of the plate tectonics, as well as the collateral effects of such a situation. Several nations, such as the United States, the European Federation or China, and corporations like Blackwater, have already stated that they will establish bases in Wegener-2 in order to exploit those resources.

Cool. Your update doesn't mention much about whats going on on Wegener-2 though... I take it we all got there and set up our first camps, etc?
Milarqui
Deity
Correct. Update 0 is explaining the moment when you come and set up camp (Radio Tower, Power Plants, House). Update 1 will deal with your first expansion, as well as your attempts to comprehend local flora and fauna (which can be quite problematic, I assure you) and making sure your bosses back home are willing to continue supporting you until it comes to you supporting them.
Also, the news about what happens on Earth and other places are because they can be important for potential future missions.

Cool.
So what would you like from players now?

The basics: what you want to do in the first month, what you want to build, whether you want to start training a few Marines (of course, you need a Barracks for this)... I'll be sending out some messages to everyone in order to make you aware of the potential missions you may follow.
Milarqui
Deity
I have sent everyone a set of orders from their governments and bosses about what they are to do (or at least attempt).
I'd like orders to be sent before next Wednesday (you have 1 week, so don't complain).
Remember that, in this turn, you can't ask for resources to be brought to you from Homeline. This first turn you will have to go through without any help from home (save for helpful - or not - advice).
Also, in bad news, NedimNapoleon has decided to abandon ship before it even set sail. See if you guys can get someone else to join this NES.

So Happy I Could Die
It would be helpful if you could post a "orders layout" scheduling what our orders should contain and how and why, sort of like BirdJaguar or Immaculate does. I have no idea how to write orders currently.
Milarqui
Deity
OK, the Orders layout (as requested by Diamondeye) is now on post 4. I have to recant on one thing: you may ask to Homeline for what you need on turn 1, but you won't be getting it until turn 2, so you'd better be able to make good planning.

OK, it's official. I don't even know why I attempted to make a potentially original NES. Should have realised NO ONE would play it despite their (apparently fake) enthusiasm for it.
That's it. I'm not gonna mod this NES. If you want to play, do it yourselves.
If I ever make other NES, I'll make one like Amon Savag's.

Milarqui,
I have made up really nice orders. I cant send them from my work computer but i can send them tonight.
I also made up a spreadsheet of how i wanted to expand and in what order over the next 4 turns.
My point is that my enthusiasm wasn't fake- only yesterday and monday i worked 13h each day and had a crying baby when i got home so... not much time to do stuff.
I'm sorry they are late but i didn't get to finish them until yesterday and I wanted to review them tonight before i sent them.
I'm going to send them anyway so you at least know my enthusiasm wasn't 'fake'.
If you continue, i would love to play. if player interest is lacking, i understand.

Believe me, Immac, I want to mod this NES, but you are the only one that has sent something similar to orders, and it gets me irky that the others haven't done anything yet. Everybody knew that they had 1 week to send orders, and they haven't even made comments on the thread re: their opinions or some stories or something of the kind.
Look, I feel really generous, so, if I get all the orders before next Saturday (that's three days) then I'll continue it. Otherwise, everyone will be getting out of the planet due to a meteor hitting the planet and provoking a nuclear winter.
