Hi No Moto wrote:Not sure I understand this rule properly so I will ask:

Can I drop my initial claim for Primorsky Krai & add Indonesia [Banten, Jakarta, West Java, Central Java, Yogyakarta, East Java, Bali & West Nusa Tenggara]?

Primorsky Krai is 165,900 and I believe that all comes to 156,628


The modification is in place to prevent endless claim changes and perpetually adding to claims. So how it stands is that it can be modified once without question but after that it's got to be reviewed. It's not to hamper things - a good justification means it'll get approved - but it's there to make people commit to the claim.

I think it's a case of being able to change your existing claim by adding to it (or dropping stuff to add stuff to it) one time for free, but if you want to do it multiple times for the same claim block then Lay has to approve it. I'd hazard a guess that approval would probably be easier to get if justification is provided. Admittedly that's just my interpretation.

Anyhoo, I would like to claim the following please:

Poland - 312,969km
Czech Republic - 78,866km
Slovakia - 49,035km
Cameroon - 475,442km

Total: 916,312km

Now that the Shenzhen Pact has been established, two nations are going to be expressing an interest. The Republic of Cameroon and the Republic of Zapadoslavia. Both will be handled in the same thread.

Therefore, I would like to, instead, calim the following:

Austria
Switerzland
Liechtenstein

Because our threads will be occuring at the same time, and similar but contrasting storylines, Mari and I have agreed that we would play them out in one thread.


I prepped the map & claims so when you post the thread I'll add it.

Bolivia (La Paz [Manco Kapac])


So this was a bit of an oops. After discussing with Terran Tribes, he's allowed me to reclaim the western shores of Manco Kapac since they're basically connected to Peru. The image below shows the entire province. The red circle area will stay with Terran Tribes. Overall it's 367 km² with the red circle being about 10 km²

Majorly overlooked this but Yugovia has claim to Grisons & Ticino in Switzerland so any claim would be a partial of Switzerland or you'd have to contest.

Please fill out the form below to announce a new thread. You should list yourself as the Thread Owner unless this a joint-effort. Then please list all owners alphabetically.

The Classification Tag(s) should include one, some, or all of the following and any additional tags you wish to cite: "Claim," "Introduction," "NPC," "Story," "War." The Synopsis should include a brief summary in two or three sentences about the thread and lastly the Miscellaneous Notes should include any OOC comments. If there is an OOC Thread attached, link it here and also advise if this thread is "Closed" as in it is a story.

  • The Filipino-Layartebian War: Falling Skies
    • Thread Owner(s): Layarteb
    • Location: Eurasia, Southeast Asia, Philippines
    • Classification Tag(s): Claim, Story, War
    • Synopsis: The first part of the Filipino-Layartebian War detailing the events leading up to the outbreak of major hostilities between these two nations.
    • Miscellaneous Notes: OOC Thread


So some bad news. I wound up going off my outline tremendously, which is the byproduct of trying to write posts while actively falling asleep. The good news is that I've retweaked the outline and I shall recommence the commencing. Same thread just going to edit some of my posts. Nothing major changes, just the sequence of events (though not dramatically so that it nullifies what HNM & UFN posted). Progress starts immediately!

EDIT: All posts have been reworked as of Sun Jan 12, 2020 22:35 [UTC-5].

I'm going to consider my claim thread Operation Ferrante complete. The thread was kind of crippled by the fact that I was going more for a vibe than a coherent plot (Miami Vice Deathsquads) and halfway through I decided instead I was going to in broad strokes paint the history of my claim.

I mentioned it in the IRC but I'm going to get together a thread of one-shot stories of the Caliphate/prior states to flesh out some history and establish characters and ideas. I feel like coming back to NS after a break I've struggled to write creatively so I'm hoping that after plugging away at this thread for a bit (I'll link once it's up/rolling) I'll be in a place where I can start Black Flags over Rum which outline the birth of the Caliphate.

Special Announcements
I have changed the layout of our threads. Previously, we listed threads by their geographic area. This was a suggestion a long time ago and it made perfect sense then. We had a lot of threads happening at once and it was a good way to figure out what was and what wasn't in proximity to one's claims. However, over time, this has become something of an eyesore both in terms of aesthetics and in management. As such, I've moved to going back to listing threads simply in alphabetical order, though I am maintaining the geographic identifier. Let's try this out for a while.

Tolorian Empire you have preliminary approval. Go ahead and post up your thread. I just have to check the land area to make sure it conforms. I’m sure it does just looking at those claims but I just have to do the math. Don’t let it stop you though.
