Coalition of Steel [PMT | Recruiting]

[Xanixi]

[Original thread created by Super Bwitain.]

And So We Meet, CoS RP.

ICly formed in the year 2024.

Please be sure to read through the Charter clearly in order to understand the views and political standings of all nations within the Coalition of Steel. Additionally, remember that we retain the right to deny a member for whatever reason we see fit, so long as a simple majority of the Coalition’s Council States disapprove of an applicant.

Also, remember that - for budget counts - it is best to add everything in Universal Standard Dollars in order to ensure that we all get a general grasp of the size of the economy.

Regarding the economic sector of the registration form, when stated “Industry Regulation”, I imply to state whether it is “High”, “Medium”, or “Low”.

Light, Courage and Steel

The Coalition of Steel is a political-economic-military pact formed in a world that saw the smallest of nations incapable of holding their own be eradicated by the more technologically sophisticated nations that willingly carried out imperialist acts to gain more territory and surpass other nations and gain power. The Coalition of Steel - a union directed by four Council States - was signed into existence by the Waltch Dominion, the Imperial Theoneysian Reich, the Altarian Empire and the Thedosian Empire in order to give financial, humanitarian and - in the worst of cases - military aid to poor and developing nations finding themselves in troubling situations, though it has recently taken a role in countering civil and human rights violations in the world.

The capital of the Coalition of Steel has been set - through vote - at Miranthous, Thedosian Empire. As such, a headquarters has also been constructed.

Your definition of WMD seems strange.

[New Zepuha]

Wasn't I just accepted to membership? I'd also like to inform everyone I'm watching a nation play with nukes. Not sure that he's hostile but announcing it says something.

Dat rape face.

So NSEconomy says my total military manpower is 573,589,490. I don't know who I should believe, NStracker or NSEconomy.

Neither. I hate calculators, and would advise you not to use them.

I was rushing and just threw whatever I could. I revamped the charter last. However, I've replaced that definition with a more viable one.

Rules of engagement? Civilians expendable.

See, that's the kind of behaviour that falls under III.v.

And why aren't I a member you rascals?

I'll just consider you to be under the Holy Britannian Empire for now.

Wasn't I just accepted to membership? I'd also like to inform everyone I'm watching a nation play with nukes. Not sure that he's hostile but announcing it says something.

Not that I've noticed. You've obtained the approval of the Altarian Empire, but not that of the Alliance nor the UESR (or Helvetica, whatever). This is a democratic system requiring the majority to approve your entrance. I haven't approved because of real life time-taking issues. I'll try to say something tomorrow.

We're generally just going to steer the other way from nuclear players; they tend to disobey the rules of logic.

So NSEconomy says my total military manpower is 573,589,490. I don't know who I should believe, NStracker or NSEconomy.

Neither. Firstly, they're trackers, which means you can set your own military population (Absolution, anyhow) at 100%. Bad. NSEconomy is trying to tell you how many people are fit for service. Also bad, seeing as its 10.93%.

Just calculate your own. Make a population (unless you use NS populations) and calculate your own military population.

[Hochste Helvetica]

Y U NO CHANGE UESR TO HELVETICA?

Well, if my neutrality isn't needed here, than I'll be leaving to play Minecraft....

SPEAKING OF NEUTRALITY...I'm screwed if someone attacks the Coalition.

*sets aside a brigade or two to deploy during coalition-wide wars*

The Coalizione Difesa Divisione! We only intervene if Helvetian citizens are in danger, major human rights violations have been verified, etc...

*sets off to write those rules up*

Then again, Switzerland did deploy some elite troops to Kosovo...meh.

[YellowApple]

I know I'm not supposed to tag threads anymore, but screw the rules, I have green hair!

So tag.

So NSEconomy says my total military manpower is 573,589,490. I don't know who I should believe, NStracker or NSEconomy.

Your call. NationStates seems to be divided quite evenly among Absolution fans, NSEconomy fans, and no-tracker fans. I personally use Absolution's tracker as a guideline and adjust things appropriately (since my RPing doesn't exactly follow my NS data).

Also have to add Velkanika.

NOTING that the United Emperican Socialist Republics have fallen due to a mass outbreak of White Fever;

FURTHER NOTING that the White Fever epidemic was caused by a breach of security in the Emperican biological arsenal;

LAMENTING the horrendous loss of life caused by the disease and the Emperican government itself;

BELIEVING order must be restored to the former UESR as soon as possible;

THE ALTARIAN EMPIRE DECREES:

i.) Due to the decisions made by the Emperican government, Altair hereby renounces all recognition of the Emperican government's legitimacy;

ii.) As the Emperican government is not legitimate, Altair hereby recognizes Emperica's sovereignty as a nation as void;

iii.) Altair declares the former UESR, as it no longer has a legitimate functioning government, an Altarian territory;

iv.) Meeting the Edicts' definition of a "territory in chaos," Altair hereby declares Arch Knight martial law upon the former UESR;

v.) Being an Altarian territory, the former UESR is hereby considered protected by Altarian sovereignty;

vi.) Any attempts to encroach on Altarian territory will be responded to with any and all necessary measures;

vii.) Due to the White Fever outbreak, Altair hereby declares the former UESR a quarantined zone and all travel to and from the former UESR is banned accordingly;

viii.) Any foreign aid sent to the former UESR must be submitted to the Altarian Empire for appropiate allocation.

*grabs Alti by the ear and squirts him with water*

NO! BAD NATION!.

Emperica/Emprussia won't become anyone's territory. Just leave it be and let it die in peace, because I'll probably retcon that in the future and use both Helvetica and the UESR.

The idea behind where I intend to take that RP is that Altair eventually creates and distributes the vaccine, rebuilds the UESR, and leaves, thus allowing you to use it again. Of course, as you know with Altair, the military is going to be the one doing the rebuilding... By making it a "territory," I have created a wonderful conflict! Now there are plenty of opportunities for cool subplots to arise. Xanixi tries to press Altair politically to let them in, remnants of the Emperican armed forces fighting against the Altarians, bandits and shit trying to raid rebuilt towns... Yeah. Cool stuff.
