Omega, I can trade you raw materials (iron, steel, coal etc.) in return for food. What is your average surplus per year, in the number of people it could feed?


I am taking a shot in the dark due to not knowing what to go off of but I am thinking like food surplus to feed 200 million.

If you could provide enough food to feed sixty million, we would provide you with sixty percent of our raw material surplus and also offer military alliance. We'd also offer to wipe out any religion in your nation, should you so desire...

We do not need religion removed though would gladly accept your raw materials. If you provide us more raw materials we can turn it into refined or machined goods as well.

Heheh, yeah, the Administration likes to try asking anyway, just in case...

However, I unfortunately messed up: I meant thirty percent of our surplus- it's equal in percentage to the amount of food you are providing.
If you agree to the trade, by the way, do you want to enter a millitary alliance? I mean, either way the Administration is going to become pretty skittish relying so much on someone they're not even allied with.

If it will help the fears of your people a military alliance can be agreed up.

In return for food for 60 million people though I would like 40% of excess mineral resources and another 30% of which 50% will be returned in a refined state or as machined goods.

We don't need machined goods- it's our primary produce- and we can refine our own materials. Furthermore, you are asking for seventy percent of our materials in exchange for thirty percent of your produce. This seems...somewhat unbalanced.

We can offer (as we are fairly desperate) to give you thirty-five percent of our surplus materials, in return for enough food to feed sixty million people.

Hey, you cannot blame a guy for trying. 35% is a deal.

Awh. I guess no one saw my question; I was inquiring upon the north eastern island's status of vacancy, and if I could claim it.

It is vacant

Things can always be renegotiated as things change. With your population and me providing much of your food means you need me more than i need you which is always nice leverage in any political climate.

@Omega exactly. Which is why the Administration was willing to take the thirty-five percent...

Quick question. The technology level is obviously very fantasy tech and whatnot. How does that affect medical progress? Is crazy genetic science along the lines of "The Island of Dr. Moreau" too far out? If not, what would be too far out?

Yeah sure! Just give me a sec to update the map and nation list with the new additions to get a better idea of what the current situation is.

Hmmm.... I never had thought about it in that aspect, PM me what you have in mind specifically.

Sounds good, I should probably look through the whole thread though. Kinda just skipped.

As long as you read the rules, maybe even look at a few NS sheets to compare to, you'll be fine. Most of it is just international trade discussion.
