I personally RP mostly through News Reporting perspective since I'm not that good with first person action type of RPing. Everyone has their own style in RPing.


I do most kinds, news, first person, overview. It depends on the situation and what other people are doing.

Just ask stuff if you're unsure. People are usually happy with that :)

I've been itching for a war RP ever since my victory in the Eid Revolution. Although all I really did was bomb enemy positions while other nations were responsible for fighting on the ground. :p

I guess jumping into wars isn't a good idea though.


Why, I used to do it all the time & look where it got me :p

Happy to start ours soon if you want... we could make it more open?

Yeah Korongo definitely stood out there.
I used to run an alliance, and a region. Not that it matters now.

There should be a "military strategy consultation thread" like the realism thread…

A few helpful guides for the basics:




This one is probably the most useful, and my personal favourite; its on doctrine and strategy

On how to build your military.

Excelent stuff on the aspects of modern war.

The overlooked aspects of war by the infamous AMFG

Not important nd really long, but Tzun Tzu quotes modified for NS :P

Don't feel the need to read all of them (especially not that last one), but but do skim. Also I can answer questions, or direct you to some military firends on NS.

I know. Mine would lead to a governmental coup and subsequent war of reclamation....... I've had it planned for ages but never really found a large enough atrocity committed by this nation. So you'll basically get attacked with nukes if you participate.

Can I get a briefing from one of the SG about intelligence? As in what alliances should I focus on, what information is most pertinent, etc.

I'm some 17 year old psuedo-libertarian who leans to the left in social terms, is fiercly right economically, and centrist in foriegn policy. Unapologetically Pro-American, Pro-NATO, even if we do fuck up (a lot). If you can find real sources that disagree with me I will change my opinion. Call me IHOP cause I'm always flipping.

Will do, I'll focus on those two. Does anyone want to be deputy to keep minor tabs on the others?

Oh and Roski, is my emblem complete yet?

The rest seems fine to me.





No puppets for me yet. I just had an intensive crash course on NS :p

Well, that impressive.
