It doesn't read good to use "soldiers" twice like that. Drop the second occurence.Brilliania wrote:Many @@DENOMYMADJECTIVE@@ soldiers, both current and former soldiers, have pointed out the bad quality of @@DENOMYM@@ rations.
Any reason he has to be male? You don't use any pronouns or other gender-dependent stuff. Some nations have male-only militaries, but NationStates also allows you to have female-only militaries, so it's not feasible to accomodate that.Brilliania wrote:Former army Sergeant @@RANDOMMALENAME@@ replies angrily to your question.
It's spelled "unbearably", but this argument is just really bland and needs to be spiced up (but read below first).Brilliania wrote:"These meals were unbearbly bad! I have seen poor Bigtopians having nicer meals than our rations! We need to create rations which are actually palatable!"
Now now, you can do better than that. No NationStates option should ever tell you that you did something reasonable. Exaggerate, exaggerate, exaggerate!Brilliania wrote:Effect: Soldiers get proper rations with variation.
So on that note, this option is basically "the previous option, but more", which makes it not interesting enough to be its own option. Unless you can think of something better to distinguish them, the two should be combined into one option.Brilliania wrote:option 2: Food producing tycoon @@RANDOMNAME@@ proposes something else: "Maybe we could use our food industries and culinary experience to create rations suitable for a king. We could have canned @@ANIMAL@@ stew, some traditional @@DENONYM@@ patê and even some luxurious caviar! Our army could be the most cultured in the @@REGION@@!"
Effect: Soldiers enscript just for the rations.
If you do something like this, it will generate three different @@RANDOMNAME@@s. I don't think that's your intent.Brilliania wrote:option 3: Noted civil rights and neutrality activist @@RANDOMNAME@@ protests against the army. "Why do we need to feed the soldiers? Why do we even have soldiers? We should abolish the military for a peaceful and tolerant future! If we did that, we can also spare some hard-earned @@CURRENCY@@s to defend ourselves!" says @@RANDOMNAME@@ while holding up several protest signs. "ABOLISH THE ARMY! ABOLISH THE ARMY!" are the last things you hear before @@RANDOMNAME@@ marches away to protest.

Use @@RANDOMMALENAME@@ or @@RANDOMFEMALENAME@@ the first time, then pronouns. (Or rephrase the whole option so the person doesn't get mentioned so many times.)
