Annex

by **Sedgistan** » Mon Sep 14, 2009 4:34 pm

2 updates actually took a lot of lobbying, and we had to wait to see how the liberation resolutions worked out first. That said, I do think that most the issues here have been settled, so its more just a case of when the admins have the time to introduce this.

Don't look at me.

In their position I'd prefer staying on the sofa.

But anyway I think this idea will be totally amazing when it comes into force. I have to say the fall of Nationstates 2 has been absolutely amazing for us. Many more updates are being coming into the game, nation numbers and the number of people on at one time is all up. Annexing will add to a great list of recently more military based additions to the game. So even though I doubt those that want a totally perfect military system will be happy it is certainly an amazing start to increasing the presence of a clearer military side of the game without everything being built in unlike most other games.

Sorry about that, I tend to go offtopic.

Any progress on this?

Yes!

I have one question: Say Region A was annexed by Region B, but one of the region's founder and delegate CTE'd, will Region B still have a hold on Region A?

Regions now seem to have a History page, but it eludes me which events are listed there, or how stuff can be added/removed from it. Well, it's progress! (or the opposite, I guess, for those who don't like the feature)

Why can't the Alliances or annexes be listed on the World Factbook entry?

If a raider does become a delegate ...and obtains enough influence....the region he came from...would annex...the region already in a way.

I'm pretty sure your questions have already been answered in this thread, but for completeness, this way would be:
1) Easier: No need to gather up enough influence to ban everyone, just enough to annexe the region
2) Less Destructive: you wouldn't have to ban every single nation just in order to leave a permanent mark on the region

by **The Blaatschapen** » Thu Oct 01, 2009 8:17 am

So it becomes easier to leave permanent marks on the region. Tell me how is that exactly a good thing?

by **JURISDICTIONS** » Thu Oct 01, 2009 8:59 am

But, the raider does not have to ban everyone...once they become delegate...they can implement a regional password....so if the original nations leave they cannot come back!

Fendas can always remove the password of a region within some 20 days, through the new liberation category. Don't worry, this new feature will do practically no harm to natives, and much good. Same goes for raiders. Fendas too I guess, they won't have to bother liberating regions who are being held for months (even years) by one invader delegate.

Experience tells me that invaders don't have to invade either, but they do. Because they can. And kicking everyone out of the region is still an option. They can. So they will.

This feature isn't an alternative to region griefing. It's an addition to it.

Dy is drunk and on the wrong thread again.

I'm sorry, I don't follow this forum much. Just certain topics I deem relevant. If I'm on the wrong one, could someone link the right one (concerning the History button) here?

It's right below the regional happenings.

by **Sedgistan** » Fri Oct 02, 2009 12:26 pm

He means link the topic where it was discussed. I think that the history page was actually first mentioned in this topic, and I haven't seen it discussed elsewhere.

@Dysian, only the history page has been added, not the annex feature, so far.

by **West-Flanders** » Fri Oct 02, 2009 12:29 pm

I think Dysian means the link to the topic with more information conserning the implemenation of the history-button or a possible implementation of the annex-possibility.

@Dysian: This is "the thread", as far as Im aware there're no others.

EDIT: Sedgistan beat me to it..

by **Dysian** » Fri Oct 02, 2009 1:23 pm

indeed I mean so, Daynor mentioned I was on the wrong thread and confused me

so it is a sign of Annex being implemented after all

btw WF, after it's done, I'll send you a request to write down that Mencer annexed Belgium in the past. I know you'll decline, but I'll do it just for "the heck of it"

by **Daynor** » Fri Oct 02, 2009 1:58 pm

So wait... are we talking about annex being added? I thought he meant that history had been added, and meant to post in the thread about regional history...

I missed it if it was added!

by **West-Flanders** » Fri Oct 02, 2009 2:48 pm

*checks regional controls again*
Nope, no annex-buttons yet. But I suppose when/if the annex-thingy is implemented the annexations will be visible on the history-page.

Maybe the alteration of a regional flag could be something worth mentioning on a history page? Or would this be something people could exploit to spam the regional history page?

by **Darkesia** » Fri Oct 02, 2009 6:38 pm

*gets all giddy and bubbly* It's even on feeder regions. This progress makes me wanna :hug:

I think Delegate Voting history could be neat to have tracked. I keep a record for my region anyway, but it would still be a good reference especially to see how sovereigntist/liberal delegates are in their voting.

And the changement of delegate positions, would be nice to have some kind of overview of that too.
