Just a notice, you fine folks, of the new nation springing up to your north; no, I did not randomly pull it from my flabby Arse. Fact of the matter is that my old guild, Psiram, did a valid RP, took it over, and with the dissolvation of Psiram, I'm left holding the reigns. As far as it's relation to Gaia itself goes, it was considered an independent nation, and, well, now it's under new control. It's none to big, it's not producing nukes, it's just a lil something for you all to think about.
Any problems, friends?

Josef Gafencu no, I did not randomly pull it from my flabby Arse. Fact of the matter is that my old guild, Psiram, did a valid RP, took it over OOC: St. Augustine would be proud. OOC: RPs in another canon are no more valid than something brand new. I don't care if you've RPed your nation building for 30 years, "It happened in another RP" does not justify anything that's unreasonable. OOC: That said, I look forward to having a force to RP with/against/around/etc...

((Ah, thank you Chan. Look foward to RPing with you as well.
As for you Tanasha, meh. whee Either or, I'll send one of my newer recruits as a delegate once I finish updating my guild, and such not. RP wise, this should get interesting, seeing how Westphalia is headed by a mildly evil man, with mildly evil ideals.))

((Theres only one OOC problem I see with Westphalia interacting with the GG...
According to your M/O Guild first post you state that Westphalia is a modern tech only nation. The problem being that the GG is NOT a modern tech nation... and hasnt been since its inception. So as long as you are a modern tech nation that does not allow post-modern tech, interaction is limited to pure conversation. So the question remains, are you intending to change to accept post-modern tech (obviously munching is never allowed regardless of tech level) or stay a modern tech nation and either be 'behind the times' or what?))

Josef Gafencu Rules 1. Know the AMP. Obey it, k? 2. Look, RP actually entering Westphalia. Or I kill j00. 3. Know my defences. Or I kill j00. 4. A lil Magick, that's all. Fireballs, sure. My men know a few tricks too. But dragons and spells capable of nuking entire battlefields? I kill j00. 5. No Spaceships or Mechas. This is modern, f00s. Ganale, that means CRISAT is right out of the picture, you whore. ((Im not entirely sure how macross is considered modern-tech... but in short, what I beleive hes alludeing to is "if it aint ticking now ( as in IRL) it wont be tickin' here." sort of thing. Im not sure theres a simpler definition of modern tech... sweatdrop ))

The problem being that the GG is NOT a modern tech nation... and hasnt been since its inception.)) ((FILTHY LIES! Wooden doors, for god's sake! WOODEN DOORS! If you want to get technical, "Gaian Government" is at this time nothing more than a synonym for "a few mech guilds who allied themselves and hid 'emselves with a different name". I haven't seen much real government-ing going on here, save for a Justice Department which had flammable doors last time I checked. However, I do believe a government should have a bit more backstory than "a bunch of armies who got together and formed Gaia's government"; you might as well call yourselves fascists. When you get right down to it, it'll be the Gaian Army and their various space/mecha divisions making a government headed by their leaders and enforced by their military power and the GPD. And until you get some actual government together, you might as well change the guild name back to The Gaian Army. This may be a government in theory, but in reality nothing's complete except armed forces and law enforcement, both of which existed long before this effort began. Besides which, while Westphalia is essentially a military state, it does not attempt what the Gaian Government does, it does not attempt to govern the country of Gaia and the people - the RP characters of real people - inside, and it does not attempt to lay out its legislation and lawmaking practices for all to see; also, it does not act under a guise of democracy. Paying attention to the Gaian Government lately, I admit I expected much more than I got.))

We can't even find *five people* to run the country! OOC: By the by, you misused the word "fascist".

(( *clears throat* Then allow me to clarify then... The majority of guilds associated with the GG are not, and have not been modern tech organizations, any of them really.
Regardless of our current efficency at governing the people (which was never in question in this post, and was COMPLETELY off topic gel...) if they intend to RP with us and do not accept post-modern tech (as stated) then the problem still remains...
The fact we have more than one guild regardless of affiliation invovled instead of one person RPing the entire thing or declaring themselves the ruler is pretty good start. The GG is really still a shadow mass of NPC's that help combine several guilds together as it has been since the GA decided they didnt want to be considered a ruling party. At the moment we havent tried to force our rule on anyone -hell we havent even advertised yet- so I fail to see how that makes us facists.. it makes us the same thing "we" as in the original offshoots of the GA have always been a group of committed military guilds who intend to do their best to defend gaia.
If it means that we end up in conflict before congress then so be it, we wouldnt be the first nation formed in crucible of fire...
As a side point, I dont see how an elemental items base properties decides its time table... I somehow have a feeling there will be wood (be it recycled or otherwise) for a long time to come... and I still have the slightest inclination that it will be flamable at that point in time as well. ))

((I'm the "criminal liason", remember? As the leader of a criminal/terrorist organization, a high-profile guild like this with flammable materials ANYWHERE draws my attention like a free stripper. Imagine if the GPD were built from wood; they wouldn't last another month. Fire is the most cost-efficient destructive tool most people have, and it is quite easy to use. If you use wood, be aware that it can burn; but, more importantly, be aware that it WILL burn.
Feh, my brain is slowly shutting down. Hence my off-topic-ness earlier. Still, I don't particularly like mech guilds...))

((Im not a peticularly big fan of them either, but that has no relavance here. In all fairness whether I like Gundams, or Mechs,or TA's, elementals, Arm Slaves, or the pure Incarnate summoned form of Gasara; has no real relavance here... neither really does the GG beyond the fact that if he intends to Roleplay here he has to understand this is our turf and thus paradigm rests with the organization not an individual group.
as T-Boss put it "They choose to RP with us" so im assumeing they understand the timeline we are involved in. I simply would like to confirm that they understand that and OOC find out how this will all work out so we dont have a similar encounter to the following one.
A: "My army marches through the mountain pass onto gaian native soul where they begin to rape and pilliage"
B: "From above the village a passing orbital carrier craft recieved the updated thermal images of the beginning conflict below and ordered a massive scramble of all aerospace fighters. as the craft began to scorch through the atmosphere their weapon systems began to wake from their slumber readying for the impending battle."
A: ((Hey wait a sec I said this was modern! I fires my ignorz c4nn0|\| at it!))
B: ((What do you mean this is modern tech!? you invaded a known post-modern tech nation?))
A: ((I dont care I wont accept anything thats not modern tech)) *the soliders continue raping and pilliageing with an added side of raping.*
This was just an example not an insult or slight at anyone.
as a side note: Get some sleep Gel))

((Well, I suppose it's not big deal to let ya'll use your overpowered mechas and crap. Westphalia is mostly mountians and marsh, and Mountians and Marsh = Crappy Mecha Terrian, not to mention bad land for tanks. I have no real problem with mechas, as long as people acknowledge that a 155mm SABOT round can, and will, leave most mechas reeling and with a few damaged interior systems on the hit part, at least. Even if your Mecha is liek, wh0a, I still have a few tanks with Naval Guns, as much as I hate to use them, as they suck up so much gas and = bad economy.
Only thing that really concerns me is Orbitial Bombardment, i.e., Satellite Cannons. Aerospace Fighters? We have missles, not to mention the fact that it's rather hard to hit a bunc hof men running in various directions. Mechas? See above. Laser Beams falling from the heavens? Crap.
Oh, and Magic. Eh... I'm really, really iffy on Magic. I'm going to modify the rules to allow it, but anything on the level of Ganale/Edymion I'm probaly going to ignore, as last time I checked, they could claim a range of abilities from full fledged one hit kills, and seeing into the future and such. If you can set people on fire, why not. Blow up a several dozen tonne tank? Probaly not.))
