Sursum Corda - An Imperium OffTopicum Game

Teneon continues to increase Market Share

A new player on the scene, Teneon, is astonishing analysts with their aggressive business tactics and shockingly low prices.

"Well our opponents," explained COO Ramirez at a recent press conference, "just aren't ahh, 'willing to go as low' as we are. With their prices."

Many have speculated that their efficient supply chain management, strong customer loyalty program, and ruthless cost-cutting. Ramirez, clearly in touch with his workers, posed for pictures with some lower-level employees, who cheerfully held their well-polished sub-machine guns above their heads. "Our CSRs really are the public face of this company," continued Ramirez, "We make sure they're taken care of."

With new supermarkets opening daily in Hispaniola, Teneon's widely lauded Tenecare® customer service department has been ensuring customer satisfaction, while passing on important market data to the head office.

"Our attractive bargains aside, our attention to the customer really sets us apart from our competitors, and ultimately, most have avoided 'paying the price' of business."

We look forward to the welcoming of the new clans and future members too!

OOC: for RP purposes the Scottish isles yet to be claimed will be regarded to this, combined with Scotland (once they are claimed) to essentially allow Scotland to be treated as three clans.

The Minister of Public Order, Lex Luthor, has announced a major police operation to bring to justice the so called 'bushrangers'. The police will cooperate with the military Special Forces to bring down those criminals. In a press conference Mr. Luthor said, "We shall enforce justice and ensure that all citizens are safe from those criminals. Our forces shall hunt them down and bring them to court of law. I can assure you that it will be only a matter of weeks before they are all brought to prison."

The Foreign Minister Felix Kjellberg has released ads online advertising Australia and New Guinea, with the hope of promoting tourism in the area. Among the ads is a video showing Australian beaches, the Australian desert and jungles in New Guinea. He has also released a couple of videos of himself traveling in several of those locations in YouTube. Mr. Kjellberg said, "I believe that our country is among the most beautiful in the entire world. You should all travel to Australia and New Guinea and see for yourselves all the beautiful locations I've shown you in my videos."


President announces increase in military spending

QhgY19H.jpg

President James Guster has announced an increase in military spending. Speaking in the 'Australian and New Guinea Defense Conference', a conference which many military analysts attended, the President made known his wish to build a strong Australian-New Guinean military. "Our foreign policy is one of strict neutrality and commitment to pacifism. If we want our independence to be safeguarded, though, we need a strong military force. I am pleased to announce that our government has taken steps to increase military spending and so strengthen our defensive capabilities."

Labor leader Charlie Harper has criticized the move. He said to reporters that those tax dollars used to fund the increased military spending could be funding the welfare state instead. "Instead of increasing the funding of our small and underfunded welfare state, the government opts to spend more money on the military. I believe that it is clear to the people whose interests the government serves." The Liberal Party has replied by calling Mr. Harper a 'populist': "Mr. Harper and his Labor Party continue down the road of populism. They pretend not to understand the need for a strong military force to defend our independence and insult our military personnel. They should be ashamed themselves. It is now abundantly clear that under Mr. Harper the Labor Party has moved to the far left."

South Island accepted into the Union

A referendum has taken place in Te Waipounamu (South Island), of the former New Zealand. The inhabitants have voted to join the United States of Australia and New Guinea. The House of Representatives has unanimously voted to accept the island into the Union and grant it statehood. The President has said, "It is a day of joy today as we accept our bothers of New Zealand into our Union."

The peoples of Corsica, feeling nor Italian, nor French, much less Spanish at all, have came at us with a plea of joining our island republic, especially following the arrival of our navy on the Baleares, feeling we could provide them security.

Now that we have a navy to dominate the seas, we must focus on our economic development. 8 DP will go into this goal, while 4 DP shall be spent to make sure our navy remains competitive.

LIBERAL PARTY CONFERENCE

President James Guster and Vice-president Lucifer Smith have both spoken in the annual Liberal Party Conference. They have detailed an agenda of law and order and deregulation of the economy. Recent moves by the government, such as the legalization of marijuana and the open border policy, have angered conservatives in the Liberal Party and the conservative faction, led by Lex Luthor, has made its dissatisfaction known. Thus the tough law and order agenda adopted by the President can be seen as an attempt to satisfy the right wing of the party. The libertarian faction of the party, led by the Vice-president, has also tried to exact concessions from the President regarding cuts in welfare spending. The President seems to have accepted those proposals despite some dissatisfaction by the more populist right wing faction of the party. So far the President has managed to satisfy all factions and keep the delicate balance in the party between the conservative and libertarian factions but his job gets tougher.

LABOR PARTY CONFERENCE

Charlie Harper has announced his agenda for government in the annual Labor Party Conference. He hopes that his policy proposals will allow Labor to gain momentum in the polls, though so far in all polls they are lagging behind the Liberals. Charlie Harper has announced his support for increasing the corporate tax to 35%, cuts in military spending, increase of income tax for the rich and the use of that money to fund an expanded welfare state. He has also called for a more active foreign policy, promotion of Australian-New Guinean values overseas and blasted the mainstream media for being 'too conservative'. Economists have called his proposals populistic and unrealistic. The drift of the Labor Party towards the far left and its rhetoric against the mainstream media will backfire as centrists will prefer the Liberal Party to the communistic platform of the Labor Party.

An excerpt from the introduction to Christendom and Vice
Otto Frederick Brahm, 2023

Whatever the claims of the secularist, the liberal, or the Communist, those thorny and loathsome devil-worshiping pretenders, it is an undeniable fact that the onset of the Christmas Plague was timed and placed without coincidence. The earliest of the cases were recorded to have originated in New York City or within travelers returning from New York City to cities around the world. New York City: the center from which the Zionist world agenda radiated, the city in which the idolatry of market capitalism saw entire skyscrapers erected in the names of false gods, and the capital, the holy city of sexual immorality where the liberal heresy concentrated; the modern Gomorrah. This city was the first landing place of the disease that killed seven billion sinners, returning them to heaven or to hell, and left the survivors, mutated for sin or preserved for virtue, to scramble in preparation for the Second Coming of the son of God and the battle for the Earth. Yet, the "skeptic"-- a euphemism for the fork-tongued agents of the devil-- claims the location was a coincidence.

The plague is named after the holiest day of the year, when it was first reported in hospitals. This, again, is dismissed as coincidence by the skeptic. In the city of billboards, where millions of lost souls scrambled to buy and to sell, to participate in the false worship of the dollar, where millions from around the world converged to corrupt and distort the true meaning of the day called CHRIST MASS, where millions would later die a horrible, mutant death, scratching at their skin as boils and burning rashes turned them inhuman; in this city, God saw the ugly thing humanity had become since His last messenger was sent, and sought to cleanse the world of sin as he had in the days of the flood. This time, He did not warn us, and yet again by His grace some portion of us were allowed to survive. Here in Germany, the efforts of the liberal government have failed, but have been supplemented by the holy militias of the people.

Today, ten years after the plague came to remind the human race of their place, it seems the mission of God's microscopic agents is not yet done. Most of the more powerful national governments have collapsed, or are nearly collapsed. Merkel fled on the SX-213, along with many of the other world leaders. Her radio addresses no longer reach the ears of the German people; most of the local militias have banned the frequency on which they are broadcast. Germany has begun the process of rebuilding. The federal government lost most communications with the rest of the country in the harsh winter of 2015, and gradually the state governments lost communications, meaning that by 2017 the people were left to their own defense. Radical measures were needed and, as expanded on in other texts, the Christian Coalition was the most trusted authority to organize local militias for the cleansing of impure communities and households. While the battle rages on south of Berlin, the northern cities and much of their countryside was declared mutant-free by 2021, and disease-free by today. This means that the next step to reconsolidating the German state is the unification under a single authority all the local militias and their territories; this process has begun, centered again in that centuries-old bastion of Prussian culture, Berlin. Soon I will travel there and assist in the drafting of a new Constitution. The church and its doctrine must be the supreme law of the land again.

This world we find ourselves in is one the liberal nation-states of old would have been ill equipped to handle. Tolerance of vice is as dangerous to the souls of the people as vice itself. Already the people of France and old Russia have turned to the old theologies and righteous forms of government, and the sooner that the whole of Germany can be so united, the sooner Christianity can be restored to its full power over all of Christendom. The following text will be a manuscript of tactics to this purpose, a collection of accounts and analyses of the state of things abroad, and a philosophical proof of the responsibility of the old liberal's impurities for the destruction of the Christmas Plague.

New Rule: Conscription

A Nation can choose to conscript its population into the armed forces in times of dire need. In these cases the territory value of a nation is halved and that vale gets added onto the nation's military score. In future turns the population can be demobilised by transferring the points back from military to territory while incurring an additional 1dp cost per point moved. This can be done back up to the actual on map size of the nation's territory.
Conscription must be posted in the thread and before the softlock

Rule Clarification: Military Power

Combat occurs before spending so any military power raised in a turn can not be used until the next turn. However conscription will occur before combat is calculated so it is there if you find yourself in a war you were unprepared for.

Rule Clarification: War

War must be declared in thread and before the softlock

Good Evening, my fellow Americans, I hope you had a wonderful time since last I spoke to you. First, I want to thank each and every one of you for tuning in to this week’s Fireside Chat. Without you, this great nation of ours, indivisible under God, would be nothing but a half forgotten dream. This great experiment would be stillborn, and, for your contribution and love, I thank you.


I want to talk to you today about the American Dream, and what it means for each and every one of us. When I was growing up out on the colorado range, this was before the christmas plague, of course, my grandpappy used to take me out to the very edge of our land, and point out into the untamed wilderness. “Look out there,” he’d say, “What do you see?” I’d answer “Nothing, I just see trees and mountains.” He’d smile, and nod, and say “That, my girl, is what it means to be American. To take the harshest of lands, the harshest of circumstances, and make something great from it. It doesn’t matter if you are in the wilderness of the frontier or in the great glass cities of the east, Americans persevere and triumph over every challenge thrown our way.” And we have, my friends, haven’t we? The Christmas plague didn’t dampen our spirits, we’re back, bigger and stronger.


But the christmas plague isn’t the only threat we’ve faced in recent years. There are heathens amongst us, my friends, and we must be vigilant, for they want nothing more than to tear out the Great Tree that is America, root, leaf, and stem. They wish nothing more than to upend the Second Directive that is our lifehood, to bulldoze the white picket fences and smash the apple pies that are who we are. I ask you, I implore you, no, I beg of you all, keep a weather eye out for Un-American activity, and report it to your nearest Second Directive official.


Together, my friends, this threat will fall, just as the British and the Commies and the Plague have.


Now, it’s getting late, so it’s time for bed. Goodnight, everyone.

Excuse me, valued organic, but your recent claims are strategically detrimental to our own progress. We are quite pleased that you wish to be so close to so much despair, but we would humbly request that you claim some islands that matter less. Thank you for your time!
