I'm just recovering from hunger shock because I'm a distracted moron and then I go work on comics.

I just got home and getting on working my upcoming post.

Working on post = Sitting in front of a computer and procrastinating for the whole day

That feel is known well. But if things normalize then this RP could go back to going several days to a week without a post. So I wouldn't say "feel rushed". Unless you're me, then you got a schedule on some things.

I do find it amusing that our ratio of IC to OOC pages is like 1-12 thus far.

It only has been a day...

Aight, so should I put my expanded nation sheet straight in the characters tab or put it here first?

That wasn't really intended to be an attack, more of a humorous statement.

If it's what you're going to use to keep track of characters and posts and all sorts of updated info: yes.

Since we are an NRP, I think you can squeeze by putting nation sheets in the character tab even if they aren't strictly listing characters. That being said, listing characters is a very good idea. Don't want to start forgetting names when you need them.

Aight, there we go. Will probably work on an introductory post tomorrow.

The Byrd Man does not promise posts, he makes them. Also with House of Cards season 3 dropping that may be my last post for at least a week or two.

Alright, a minor update on the Precipice mod for Civ V: I've finalized a list of playable civs that will be added to the game. This list may be updated as more users join the game, but so far it has been limited to those that have been accepted/played by the time this mod began production (though a few of said accepted/played nations have been excluded, including Australia and India). They are as follows, with their UA names next to them (if available; those that are marked N/A mean I simply have not come up with them yet, don't worry): China - Third International (Hellenic League) Spain - Anticomunista Ethiopia - Pan-Africanism United States - N/A Canada - Blame Canada Muscovian Russia/The Russian Republic - Post-Tsardom Great Britain - Imperial Reclamation France - N/A Italy - N/A Brazil - Confederation (Diplomatic Marriage) Mexico - La Vanguardia Partidos Armenia - N/A Serbia - One Balkan Kingdom Romania - Trade Alliance Polekraine/The Slavic Union - N/A Japan - Old Empire (Bushido) Persia - Land of the Shah Prussia - Wilhelm's Legacy (Iklwa + Extra Bitches) I've also decided that, for the time being, I will simply modify existing civs instead of making new ones entirely. This means that, say, China will remain China with it's own UU/UB and colours; however, it will have a new UA (Third International) and leader (Hou). The same will also apply to non-existing countries like Canada, which will replace Austria. As for my first post as Mexico: I would like to apologize for it not being out yet. Schoolwork, theatrical performances, and illness aside, my procrastination has been killing my motivation to write. It's more or less been like this for the past few days.

Which reminds me, I need to get back into that. Maybe when I come home sometime I can take over the TV before my sister gets on to watch Criminal Minds. EDIT - And will there be new leader characters and shit like Napoleon, or is that too much work? ;p

You should try to check it out more. *Audience aside* The poor fool. He has no idea of that trap that I have laid. House of Cards, like the red mud of a South Carolina backroad, is akin to quicksand. The more he struggles, the more he shall find himself unable to break free. I almost pity him. Almost.

EDIT - And will there be new leader characters and shit like Napoleon, or is that too much work? ;p

There should be. As I said, I've got Hou set to be the leader for China, and I'm planning on using a snippet of your artwork for him. Of course, there isn't artwork for all of the leaders, so I've had to work around that limitation. I've been scouting on some irl images of other unrelated leaders to use as leader screens; for my own leader in Mexico, I've designed my own. In the case of Canada, I decided on the...erm...realistic route.

(The New and Improved CS! WOOOOHOOOO!!!!) Nation: The Republic of Aotearoa (aka The Republic of New Zealand) History When the Commonwealth fell, New Zealand fell in the dark. Forgotten and alone in the big wide world, the country was pretty much left on it's own devices. Their neighbours across the ditch also seemed a bit preoccupied with their own problems to deal with their little brother. New Zealand was lonely, shoved to their own little corner in the world. After a few years in their corner, people going on with their own lives and trying to find ways to completely forget what was happening in the outside world, something change. A spark happened. There was a sudden click, and people's look and feel on things took on massive renovations. New Zealand was alone, and people are going to use that to their advantage. At the year 1951, normal everyday civilians started to argue the status of their country. Was New Zealand really a British colony anymore? The riots started, people screaming for an identity. An identity not behind a foreign culture. They wanted change. They wanted an individual culture that could develop into something more. Not to hide behind the non existent Union Jack, something that most didn't feel was appropriate anymore. With riots, come violence. They started peacefully, people holding signs and protesting in the streets. The violence came at the winter of 1952. The protesters were in Auckland, shouting at the disgrace of a government and how they should "hold their own". Two police officers, both juniors, were patrolling and stumbled over the protests. One of them, barely 19, stepped in front of the crowd and told them all to stop. It was 2 degrees outside, hardly the weather for this kind of thing. The memories were blurry and the storm brewed. Something happened that resulted in the death of 20 people. 2 of them the officers. This caused a roar in the population. The civilians blamed the government and the government blamed the civilians. Violence spread throughout the nation. People who believed in the government and people who believed in the protesters took it out in the streets, punches thrown and beer bottle smashed. The cities were utter brawls. These were the first few weeks. And then the guns came into play. Firefights, brawls, gunfire and death were the norm in the cities. The death count rose. The idiot who thought of bringing guns into the fight was certainly regretting it now. The loyalists seemed to break down, breaking into pieces and smaller armies. They hid into the large forests, waiting for another chance Civil unrest was still apparent in New Zealand. The so called "government" was a few handful diehards that the people resented and didn't respect. New Zealand was basically lawless. The few untouched cities and towns were fending off the diehard guerrillas from the city borders while some like Auckland, the current capital, was struck hard and rebuilding. Rebuilding was slow but after 5 strained years, the diehards retreated further and further into the forests until disappearing from the map. A new government was set up, same old system but with people with a different perspective. Former Prime Minister Jane Taumopea changed the national flag and essentially turned New Zealand into a republic over night. The Land of the Long White Cloud had an identity. Taumopea had a lot to work with. She started by bolstering the Army, to prepare for any hostile actions against Aotearoa. The previous New Zealand had a pitiful army. A minuscule 5,000. She boosted that up by sneaking in money into the Minister of Defence's pocket. She also had to worry about outside influence. Maui Squadron were sent into the world beyond and the reports weren't good. The once distant idea of communism was edging closer and closer. To prevent this, political disaster as Jane called it, to reach Aotearoa, Jane set up a plan. She set propaganda documentaries, showing the undemocratic communist states in a bad light. Power to the government and only for the government. This scared the populace, the late Civil War showed them that full governmental power always leads to disaster. Taumopea also set safety precautions if Britain wanted to take back what was "rightly theirs". She ordered Fortress Camps to be built in the major cities and a military defence force spread out through the towns. She ordered Project Get Out and Project Aqua to begin. Two of the most secret projects in New Zealand governmental history. She was voted out the following year. Her successor was informed of what Jane has done in the years she was Prime Minister. David decided to keep Project Aqua but trashed the money vacuum and inhuman Project Get Out. Kiwi civilians just continued with their lives, again almost ignoring the outside. They don't know that the boat heading to Britain was going to change kiwi lives.

He was sympathised by many for all New Zealanders were affected, one way or another. But it wasn't this that made him the leader of modern Aotearoa. His charm, skills and political wit drove him through the ranks, and the fact that he was actually likeable was a big factor. David in renown for his genius and know how, about the political world and beyond. The outlook for next year's polls look good. Minister of Defence Fetuao Lotomau - New Zealand born Samoan and a childhood friend of David Randen, this beast of a rugby player and politician is the most interesting Minister in the government. His down to earth nature and "kick-back" demeanour has appealed to many kiwi's and is one of the few politicians most New Zealanders actually respect. He was with David Randen and was his Captain for a time before David switched to the Armoured Infantry. Diplomat Engelbart Kappa - Diplomat for Aotearoa. Thats all for now. Wait for the introduction. Military First Sergeant Benjamin Tark - Brave, bold, and fully Irish, this First Sergeant is respected and won his men over. Private First Class Tane Kamana - Fast mouthed and called a bit "stupid" by his superiors, this native loves imitating 1920's gangsters. Don't ask.

Which is exactly why I'm planning on posting on the 26th~

Alright, a minor update on the Precipice mod for Civ V: -snip-

I think America's UA should be called "Last, Best Hope for Liberty" and give them like a +25% bonus to all defense, considering all the stuff they've endured. Then again Armenia might deserve it for holding off against the Turks. Polekraine deserves a science bonus, since it can into space. And lots of weapons.

I suppose you fixed the date and interim details I asked for. And I asked a few people and they thought you were OK. I see Feo viewing the thread so unless he has complaints you're good.

Alright, I am pushing it. But, I will get it done by Thursday or Friday.
