*In a Scottish accent* I shall create a country called Old Worchestershirelandania and proclaim myself as the Almighty Smiter. And the people shall kneel before me and say, "Smite us, O mighty smiter!" And I shall say unto them, "Consider yourselves smote, you bleedin' ****ers!" And then I shall smite them with my Army of Smiters. Then I shall invade other countries with my great Army and I shall smite their peoples. No one will stand against the Almighty Smiter! Mwahahahahahaha...hack..cough. Water!

Unity Newsflash-
We have decided to accept Aranias peace, despite the blatant falsity of his statement.

Meanwhile, the latest and most deadly creation of the Unitarian Navy has just entered active military service. The T-101 Devastator currently numbers at thirty, with almost a thousand planned for construction. This new breed of warship was built from a mixture of our very own Unitarian technology (namely the kick-ass weapons and shields, as well as several holographic emmitters) and Aranic technology salvaged from the debris (Jump-drive technology, cloaking devices, adapted by us, and few other small things).
The Overlord has stated "As an emerging threat faces our grrrrrrrr-eat nation from certain unnamed militaristic dictators, the need for adequate military strength is more apparent than ever. These new Warships are a symbol of that."

On their first mission, the warships have shown their power well, in combat.
The OOPS (Of the Overlords Proud Service) Kraken was the first warship was on a mission to scan a convoy of Rheinbackers warships (which, without Jump-drive technology would be inpossibly far away), when their Aranic cloak flickered, allowing them to be detected.( It is suspected that these cloaking devices manfunctioned due to compatibilty issues with Unitarian technology. Either that or they're just crap) The Rheinbacker ships attacked the Kraken, with the Kraken quickly showing it's superiority in every area and completely destroying the convoy. The Kraken then Jumped home in victory.

Already, our brilliant scientists are working on improvements, although the defective cloak is by far their first priority.

Meanwhile, the doors are STILL open for negotiation with Rheinbacker.
Rheinbacker, we have no intention of remaining at war with you. It is of no benefit to us- do you think we like living behind a massive forcefield with city-sized super lasers orbiting our planet?
We only want peace. It is hoped by the Overlord that one day, the Ring of Fire can be dismantled, the people of the universe free from the tyranny of war, the doors of trade re-opened.
But, only with the help of all parties, can our weapons be silent.

In other news, we have decided to split our Empire into two seperate administrative zones. Our colony on Earth will be known as Neo-Draconia.
Our colony in Alpha Centauri will be known as Unity.
That is all.

Except...
@Starlancerace- I happen to rule half that planet, and if you so much as lay a nuke on it, I'll wipe your puny nation off the face of the universe.
@Stormtrooper- What's your country called anyway?
EDIT- Stormtrooper, I think you probably meant me when you talked about making peace with the "3rd person". Unfortunately, your proposal reached me after the attack. I still intend to make peace though, but one thing- THE DEATH CAMPS STAY! No-one can take away a mans right to incarcerate his people before torturing amd killing them. You should be ashamed of yourself. .

PS- Has anyone noticed how people tend to create a nation, then stop posting here? It's quite irritating.

that's because the borders of the People's Tawakalanian Republic are inviolate and we/I don't want the purity of the Revolution polluted by foreign ideas. The teachings of the Dear Leader (me) and the Prophet Arcon are enough and contain all other ideas worth knowing.

Post Fri Mar 19, 2004 5:27 pm

@ corsair: id say its a compatibility issue, six thousand years has taught me many things, the least of which is that my stuff works, the reason it failed on your ships is probably due to irreversible damage on a crystal matrix generator in the emmitter. The matrixes are lab-grown by bacteria and a fully functional one takes uppards of two months to grow, the device will function without, but only at one percent efficincey, and on ships that are too large (i.e. bigger than a house) the device will most likely completely fail. plus, your probably either feeding it too much or too little power, the generator is usually powered either by a fusion energy extractor, or a BCE canister, both of which are unstable energy sources and require a Aranic-built MODEM device to feed the generator the three different power supplies needed, one of which is measured as a complex number, much like tachyon cannon energy requirements.
The jump drives need a similar system, but use five supplies instead of three, as the system senerates a 'bubble' around the craft to travel at speeds in excess of 30 Million times the speed of light. If you dont give the system the proper energy supplies and monitor the entire system(we use an OS called AI-3) the drive core will burn out and you will either get trapped in this 'bubble' forever or it will destroy the entire ship and everything within 1.556 light years of the ship.

My advice: take the technology off you ships and stop using it, or, obey rhienbackers requests and i will mount the necessary eqipment on your ships.

and for the record: yes i do know what the hell im talking about, this stuff is very advanced, and you have a chance less than being struck by lightning 600 times in 10 seconds on pluto to developing the technology required to govern these systems



Small things entertain small minds, while smaller minds look on in wonder.

Actually, Arania, we have now completely solved the cloaking device problem, by using nanobots instead of bacteria (the radiation on our world makes it next to impossible to construct the correct kind of bacteria). This method is also quicker and a lot more efficient, although it has meant that our cloaking devices are several times more expensive to build.

As for the jump-drives, we have seen no problem with them so far, and in fact, we have tried out a major upgrade for them. Whereas normally, the energy created by our jump-drives would simply be wasted after the jump was complete, a new kind of drive reactor has enabled us to re-absorb almost 75% of the energy used up by the drive. This has enabled Unitarian warships to make as many jumps as they wish, without needing to return home. This will be of great use to us. We have tried a different kind of reactor that can re-absorb 100% of the energy,at up to 100x the speed of the current reactor, but this has proved very difficult. Our first test resulted in a T-101 being destroyed. The ship was unable to cope with the rush of energy, and was ripped apart in seconds. Testing is continuing, although extra safety precautions have forced us to slow things down somewhat.

In other progress, we have discovered a means to use a minute amount of energy, cycled through a special reactor, to create even more energy, via a series of perpetual motions machines. This will, we hope, be able to provide us with an infinite supply of energy in the future. While the scale of the energy produced is currently very small, advances in Nano-technology will enable us to increase the energy produced billions of times.

It would seem that Arania has under-estimated us. Perhaps he is scared that his technological sovereignty over the rest of the universe may soon end?

And Arania, the reason I repeatedly diss your technology is:
A- Because most of the posts I make, if you look at the top of them, are in the form of news broadcasts. This means that the message is being shown to the Unitarian public. As you could imagine, this means these messages will treat all foreigners as being deranged ,aggressive and barely sentient, which includes dissing their technology.(although, after your recent attempt at wiping Unity of the face of the universe, as well as supplying armoury to a certain dictator, I have begun to wonder if my broadcasts were right all along)
B- Because it's fun .

And I still stand strong on the diplomatic front- I will make no concessions to anybody. To do so, especially to people who recently embarked upon completely unprovoked attempts to destroy my nation, would be lunacy.

@Stormtrooper- I meant what does it stand for?

OIN (Orillian Imperial Navy) Newsflash:

Orillion, the Great Leader, yesterday announced, that anyone trying to touch the allies of the Orillan Empire, will be crushed.

Under 4000 long years, the Empire have been builing up one of the strongest battleforces ever seen. We have 30 four-times sun objects called Motherships. These dock into my flagship. Both the Motherships and Flagships can cloak, and uses warping technollogy to get anywhere.

From a trustable source, i know that the Empire refered to as Unity, or Neo-Draconia, have been so called "reverse-engineering" my ally Arania's technollogy. Therefore, im declaring open war on Unity, and i will put every ship i have into crushing Unity.

If you'd be foolish enough to beleive that my three hundred systems now are unprotected, you are wrong. My railguns will tear you to pieces, and to enter the systems you will need to fly for 250 years, if you not use my Hyper-gates.

Arania Transmission, FTL frequency 5546GHz at 23.6i+85 power:

Attention all aranic forces, any ships under the designation of 11-A emergency attack is too immediatly head towards Alpha Centuris by the fastest means possible, you will then be fitted with unuptanium (see 'the core' if you dont know what it is) hull panelling.

The nuclear frigate 'Uranide' is en route. all munitions and all fighters desingnated in this group are to arm and prepare to fly, this is a pre-scramble order.

All robotic and remote ops-X troop squads degingnated in this group are to get to thier transports immeditley, launch in five minutes, repeat, launch in FIVE MINUTES!

This is an official atttack announcement, i repeat, this is an OFFICIAL ATTACK ORDER! a threat has been dignosed and we are going to neutralise it.
OIN units will meet us at centuris.

To all security personell: all aranic bases are to be locked down until further notice, no-one is to go in or out except 11-A personell

All tech security personell, all jump drives and cloaking systems that are not fitted with the latest ASP-443-1/Eq security card patch are to be scanned for nature and slf destructed if found to not be on an authorised ship, Im talking about it being on unity's crap, this is an official order, i repeat, engage techon S-D mechanisms.

@Arania- did you really think that I forgot to remove the self-destruct function? I mean, we took the things apart, put them back together again, then upgraded them. There is no self-destruct function.
Anyway, does this mean you're at war with me?

@Orillion- I fail to see how using someones technology (which, by the way, I salvaged from an invasion force) provokes an open declaration of war. If you do intend to proceed with your unprovoked invasion, you have been warned of the consequences.

Unity News Flash

We have realsised that there is no way to negotiate with the deranged Arania.
We are now at war.

We are preparing all defense systems, includind our latest, the jump disruptor. Any jump system activated near this device, (ie. anywhere in our system)will instantly destabilise due to the field and create a miniature black hole.

We doubt that even Arania would fall for the old "holographic fleet" ruse again, so we must be prepared to try out many of our most radical inventions in the face of this new threat.

Fortunately, before we activated the device, we sent five T-101s on a sortie attack on Arania's missile silo in our neighbouring system, Gamma Tauro Beta. The silo was completely destroyed. Hopefully this will delay any plans he might have to use nuclear weaponry against us.

We also launched another attack on Orillion. One T-101 fired it's jumpdrive reactor at the Alpha Centauri hyper gate, thus creating a black hole, which destroyed the OOPS Tyradon as well as the hyper gate and almost a hundred Orillion ships, about 90 of which were fighters and civilian cargo, and ten being a mixture of 4 battleships as well as 5 cruisers and a missile frigate.
We were able to damage the flagship of the fleet, which we suspect had Orillion on board. It is believed to be en-route to dock for repairs.

We have also perfected a new kind of black-hole torpedo, with the destructive power to destroy entire worlds. It has been mounted on several T-101s already, including the flagship, the OOPS Kraken.

The Overlord wonders, though, could negotiation still be possible?

refuse to surrender and i destroy you
surrender, and i will spare the lives of you people.

as you may see, surrender is your only option, i have enough fierpower on my world to destroy the entire universe 200 times over, so dont try anything funny!

Arania has not lost a battle in six thousand years and does not intend to start now.
