Multipolarity II - Game Thread

Those Roman fleets who came to assist Partitionania and whose continued presence ensured Partitionania didn't get blockaded and lose a huge chunk of its income "didn't help at all..." :mischief:

Thanks to some bad@*& Anatolian fleets who were out numbered 2:1
 
A Chinese Pact

-

"My Emperor, the Chinese Union has agreed in principle to the signing of a defensive pact against a certain other chinese nation."

Katter smiled as his Foreign Minister come Chief Inquisitor Abbott reported this good news to him. Ordinarily Abbott was all about stopping the boats and keeping Katterland in glorious isolation from rogue nuclear states in North East Asia, but on the Union at least he could turn his gaze elsewhere for something constructive, which is to say, doing exactly what Katter said to do.

"Ah Excellent, containing that malignant nation, which even had the gall to insult us, US, is a top priority. It is good that the Union could look up from its ideological navel gazing internationalist stupidity and dip its toe into the world of practical reality for once. Perhaps we can come to a modus vivendi after all."

Abbott, not a fan of the Union, made an attempt at a smile lest Katter call in the ONI agents.

" Yes... Incidentally, I would like to report to you that a certain North-East Asian nation that shall remain nameless, but happens to speak Chinese, sent corresponence today. They threatened hostile action against us should we fail to sell our sovereign territory in China to them..... although I must add that they have backed away somewhat when we pointed out the likely result of such an initiative on their part."

Katter laughed, laughed quite substantially.

"That so called Emperor is as mad as old King George, which isn't surprising considering the absurd measures he goes through to deny the truth. Good to see he knows who his betters are at any rate. Anyways what are the terms of this treaty that has been agreed too between us and the Union of China?"

Abbott, straightening his typical form of attire, produced a piece of parchment upon which was written the following.

-

Treaty of Darwin

-

Article I: Katterland and the Chinese Union agree to come to the others defence if they are attacked by the Empire of China

Article II: Katterland and the Chinese Union understand that this relationship does not extend to conflicts with the Empire of China initiated by either party, or to conflicts with other states.

Article III: Katterland and the Chinese Union agree to a pact of Non-Agression as a sign of benevolent intent towards eachother now and into the future.

-

Katter quickly signed the pact to be sent to the Chinese Union for their ratification, pleased that through this treaty he would be taking another chip out of the diplomatic and ideological wall separating nations, and serving the noble goal of establishing genuine unity and co-operation amongst nations based on complimentarity and mutual respect.
 
As much as I hate to do this, I'm afraid I have to drop this. Things are cropping up and I don't have the time to work on this. Sorry.

Strange how Katterland exploits China into giving them "aid" (ha-ha-ha), then offers up an alliance.

The USSR has no formal comment on this, however.
 
A Defensive Pact, not an alliance, and one oriented solely towards a certain other China at that. Ergo if anyone but the Empire of China attacks the Union and vice versa in regards to Katterland, neither of us are obliged to lift a finger to help the other.

-

Incidentally I proposed the alliance primarily because Christos was becoming a little bit too belligerent for his own good, and I thought we'd share an interest in reminding him of his place. He may want my little chinese stronghold that is a fact, but unfortunately for him two T1 nukes as a threat doesn't phase me, and indeed the manner of his "request" that I sell my province makes me less inclined to sell at the present time... EDIT: oh did I say he has nukes out loud, slip of the tongue ;)
 
What a waste of money! Bwyhaha.

Tani did a calculation: a t1 nuke dropped on Moscow would kill like, 200> pop and destroy 20> industry.

A nuke costs 50.

Give me 10 armies any day.

(also, who do you think he got the nukes from? little b**t*rd)
 
I have been saying this for pretty much ever. Also, you can't reuse the nuke if it wins.
 
Moderator Action: Hello Patriotic fool, I see from your post count that you may be new to civ fanatics. Welcome. In our efforts to keep our site fun and friendly, we don't allow swearing and what is traditionally called "bad language". We have an auto censor in place that generally keeps such words out of the forums. I can see that you have "discovered" one of the many ways to bypass that censoring. Please don't. You can use as many strings of *^)$@(& characters as you like to express yourself though. I appreciate your cooperation in this. Thanks.

Unfortunately the "bypassing" of the system was due to a misclick (or mis-tap) on my crappy tablet.

I assure you I had the fullest intentions of being grammatically correct when spewing forth Satan's tongue onto these forums.

Well I know about the rule now. [Redacted] it, I really love my language. :|
 
Needless to say your use of one of the many words that referentially point to the idea of feces in your response to the descent of one of CFC's Lords and Masters to your language use reminds me of the response of the assembled faculty and student body of my school (back in the day) when I referred to a primitive radio I had assembled for some science day thing as "a bit crap". The sudden silence, looks from the teachers and the occasional snicker from the other students was exceedingly awkward. :p

Point being though, when in a large group of people, the highest moral standards apply no matter how degenerate, laissez faire or absent ones own morality or language standards may be. The moderati's rebuke to you serves as a timely reminder to us I think to this regard in regards to interactions on both CFC and elsewhere.
 
OOC: depends. Something Awful is a place that is large and it is rather tolerent of swearing.

So happens it is also among the most debative places of the internet...
 
OOC: debative /= good.

Anyways I would rather not start some massive off-topic conversation. I made a statement because I believe its pertinent to certain other areas apart from PF's own actions here and thats that.
 
Fair enough, Electric!

On that note, State of Denial reinstated! Thorvald will be gleeful. :p

Babylon's seat on the World Bank given to the Empire of China.

===

Well, PF, a nuke that did that would slice 12 income from your revenue. That is but a start.

Then you have the fact that would jack up revolt risk by 1 extra percent a turn (it adds up).

And, it would most certainly raise instability just a little bit. When you're being atomised your people are going to become more and more anxious.

Of course, at the end of the day, it's supposed to reflect that the Hiroshima-Nagasaki bombs, when put up against later nuclear weapons, are rather crap. Accordingly, the scale of how expensive the next tier gets is going to keep shrinking... ;)
 
Separate post so no one misses it.

Prussia:

We are still awaiting a response from the USSR.

Would you be content with economic aid instead? We need our troops to protect settlers moving into the interior. We've heard many rumors of increasing discontent in the Soviet Union, and some bread and circuses would likely assist in this regard.

Louisiana:

Hoooookay. No one wants to give 100 gold. So let's sweeten the pot, eh?

Give us 20 gold this turn, and we can give you 30 gold next turn. Deal?

Heck, you can borrow the money from the World Bank, pay 1 interest on it, and just leverage it to us, making a profit of 9 gold (45%) without touching your own pockets.

*hint dropped*

Catalonia:

Showing our appreciation of our allies Rome ceding our territory back to Barcelona's control, we are issuing a clear ultimatum to Anatolia: the Ionians are rebels, but they are Byzantine. If Anatolia takes even one Ionian territory for itself, we will consider it an act of war against the Byzantines and Rome, and thus, Catalonia.

The USSR has made peace with Rome and Catalonia, and we doubt Premier Stalin is eager to start a war again because the Sultan is opportunistic. Tread carefully.

What're you going to do- bwahaha just kidding I don't care. But seriously, though, what's collateral?
 
Prussia:

40 gold invested into Russia's economy!

What're you going to do- bwahaha just kidding I don't care. But seriously, though, what's collateral?

Louisiana is performing an economic experiment.
