OOC Thread for LGBT Protestors Attacked by Government Forces

[The Shrailleeni Empire]

The only reason we're not sending a combined fleet as promised is because of New Edom's policy regarding this person. This policy states that Fatiman and his puppets are to be ignored until they actually learn to communicate. So for now, we are totally ignoring them until they decide to reply properly. I honestly believe that no matter what we post, fatiman will not read/respond to it and just continue posting whatever they please. But if they could prove us wrong, I'd be happy to see it.

Yes that seems likely. It probably wouldn't hurt to try to get whatever they post deleted as well.

Agreed.

The OP to the IC thread now includes a description of Fineberg mostly for a sense of atmosphere that I hope people will find helpful.

[Kylarnatia]

Hahaha, I was wondering how long it'd take for you to notice we both worship a Mother. ^^ As far as I can tell from what I've read in your factbook, the similarities stop there (since yours is a Goddess, the Grand Mother is an entity higher than divinity in the Kylarnatian theology) besides the matriarchal overtones. Still, it'd be something worth exploring in our interactions for sure. :)

The Silvier Sacerdotium is much more spiritualist - it rejects the power of gods (believing them unstable with their power) and believes in the power of universal and natural forces and ancestor spirits embodied in the Seraphim, the greatest of which is the Grand Mother.

This sounds likes a somewhat theological debate, the Mother Goddess is not conceived of as having any partners or subordinates but rather is a single, universal, feminine entity who both made and is made of all creation. I see the difference in which the Grand Mother could be conceived as only one of several universal forces, whereas the Mother Goddess or Leena'i is seen as THE universal force, but overall there may be room for comparison. As a heterodox faith, Leenism is always interested in exploring these matters.

The Grand Mother is also seen as the core universal force, but not as a creator, more as someone who sacrificed her very soul to free the forces of the universe from the clutches of the Gods, and in return they gave her new life as part of them, ergo existing in all things. In the Kylarnatian worldview, she exists on a higher plane of reality than all living things - including gods - and in their hubris when they try to touch her they are burnt and ultimately destroyed by the Eternal Flame that she embodies (the same flame she used to free humankind from divine influence).

We can talk about it more over telegram or on Discord if you want, but there shouldn't be any need for either of us to compromise our nation's worldviews or faiths. Of course our individual characters will have their own perceptions, but there's enough distinction between the two that they don't have to overlap but also enough in common for our characters to be amicable towards each other based on that alone. :)

OP sorry to bother you/interrupt a post you may be writing but just wanted to be of help by mentioning that my delegate is still meeting with your Deputy Assistant of Transmarine Affairs. Do take your time, ‘cause I won’t get to writing a reply anyway today. My most recent post is all for today.

Appreciate the reminder, I'm busier than the proverbial one legged man in this thread.

Glad you found it helpful. well, I'm calling it a night. See ya

I Had Another RP Similar to this but not LGBT is the Problem.

And your point? This looks like you're just trying to advertise on someone elses thread while failing to cooperate on said thread. So I honestly don't see the connection being made here between your post just now and the topic that is this thread.

[New Visayan Islands]

Shrai, since I'm on mobile at the moment, my response to you will be somewhat delayed. Response already up, Shrai.

Gong Xi Fa Cai to the ladies and gents in the thread!

[Ardoki]

Does New Edom have an embassy in Ardoki?

[New Edom]

Does New Edom have an embassy in Ardoki?

I would think so, unless you would not permit one.

[Kahanistan]

I think I'd like to join. Haven't really interacted much since a few years ago when LGBT policy led to a diplomatic row, but I think we still have embassies. I could send in a news crew from Kahanistan National News to gather information and possibly start another international incident. I skimmed the IC thread but could use a TLDR recap in case I missed anything important regarding plot progression.

@Lanorth, I hope you don't mind, but I need to voice it up; I honestly do not think your nation, deployment or not, could even field anywhere close to 5000 ships, considering that greatest navy in the modern world has 490 ships in both active service and the reserve.

I understand that you may not be most knowledgeable person on those topics; so by all means, PM me and I will eagerly help you design your armed forces if you want. However, it's my duty to point out unrealistic number, and I have no ill-will nor disrespect towards you.

On another note, I would like to know more about the "space borne ballistic missile", considering that aside from impracticality of such a design, any kind of use of an ICBM (if this is the kind of missile supposedly mounted) risks a nuclear retaliation.

I have telegrammed Lanorth as well requesting an orbat but I approve of what you have written here.

You know, Lord's willing I am going to make a generic set of TO&Es for units that people could just copy and use in RPs.

After all, not everyone here has knowledge of military affairs, and it's fully okay and understandable. That is why we are here to provide such a help .

[Late Roman Empire]

It would realistically take a lot of time to mobilize, let alone deploy, such a massive military and naval expeditionary force to the shores of New Edom, and once should point out that New Edom has a rapidly growing number of allies ready to throw their full support to its national defense. We Cornellians are like a Mafia family: we squabble among each other, but should anyone attack us from outside, out come the knives. Speaking IC, of course.

In any case, it will take a lengthy time to complete full mobilization of all such forces, and one can only hope that this gives all players a chance to make peace instead of war. I should add that the Roman military is no joke, and while it typically deploys small, rapid reaction forces in most of its engagements, it reserves the right to make larger deployments as necessary.

[Lanorth]

Alright. May I point out some things, that I think, are important? Well, one is important, the other not so much.

• Our demonym, adjective and plural is Tyronian, not Lanorthian(s). We are a completely different race to humans, we have just evolved to look like them. We have 2 hearts, 2 brains and much more differences.
  
  
• I have a much higher Scientific Advancement than New Edom, and Rome. So I have the advantage there. Remember this.
  
  
• Us Tyronian can die more than once in one life. This is too complicated to explain, I am making a Dispatch on it.

I hope you don't mind me, but you do realize that this is an MT thread, and MT means only technology that is currently in use?

May I say, we have not invaded yet. So invade us before we do anything aggresive, it will be classed, by the Tyronian, as thus:
An Invasion For An Action Not Yet Completed.
If this does happen, Lanorth will have to start using nuclear force. It is protocal. You have been warned.

Yes, it is one of the first things I saw. We are using what is being used today. Trust me, if I end up going to war, it will make sense.

[New Aeyariss]

Yes, it is one of the first things I saw. We are using what is being used today. Trust me, if I end up going to war, it will make sense.

Okay. Please do explain how coming back to life again is possible with a modern day technology.

That doesn't have anything to do with technology. It is what Tyronian are able to do. Remember, they are a completely different race. That has nothing to do with technology.

Okay, then please explain me how it's biologically possible. You do not need to do so in great detail.

[New Edom]

That won't do. There has to be general agreement about what tech is used, what populations and what ecnomic capabilities exist. I will not accept things that come across as PMT, nor will I accept someone just declaring "My nation is superior". You had better explain it more clearly. I don't mind being challenged, but this kind of hyperbole and vagary is not acceptable to me.
