[OOC] Colonial Powers NRP

[Darthpaul]

Poppies eh? As someone from Hong Kong I don't think I like where this is going.

[The Incredible John]

I don't really plan on starting the opium wars if I do find poppies. If anything, it would be my people who would get hooked on the stuff.

Maybe I could instead start a Philippines-esque colony instead. Seeing as I'm Filipino, it should be perfect fpr me. Funny how the Germano-Scandanavians colonize it though. xD

[Meth Quokka]

So gowia, did sending a bunch of experts over to the colony have no impact on finding out what resources I have there? Also does committing money out of your budget personally have any impact on the success of the colony?

[Dedonus]

gowia said @Winston, yeah I keep doing it in Photoshop and I cant get the same colour every time so I make it roughly the same.

Can't you use the eye drop tool to get the exact color?

[gowia]

Yeah I could...but normally I can't be arsed.

[Winston Smith]

it really dosen't matter guys! just something noticed thats all :-)

[Darthpaul]

. Gowia, How does the Imperial Trading Company Work? I don't think I've seen any other faction with one. Do you control it?

[gowia]

Just means I will give you events at random times to do with it.

[Meth Quokka]

Did you see my questions gowia? I'm just trying to work out for my future choices.

[gowia]

Sorry I didnt:L You will soon receive a list of 'special' resources that other countries don't have access too. All other colonies just collect the basics, ore, wood etc. And remember you wont actually bring a profit in for a while since a colony takes a while to become profitable.

Will collecting resources, such as wood, reduce the cost of building naval ships, especially for factions with the depleted resources trait?

Ah okay good.

I wasn't expecting an instant profit but I did commit 1B to the first colonial venture personally then got docked a little more in the update so I just thought I should check it'd actual have an impact :)

[The Incredible John]

I hope you guys don't mind me doing a bit of exploring in Aventia.
They'd probably get killed by natives though. :(

[Asura]

Agggh. I need to start my 'The emperor wants you to get into a wooden box and sail across the ocean!' post. Also need to get to ignoring them filthy greeks and their 'stahp makin money' pleads.

[Sadko]

ERGHH THIS IS NOT GOING TO DO YOU ANY GOOD, YOU VALMISH SCUM >:(

let's get those posts rolling brothers

[Meth Quokka]

Done. Gowia what's the cost of raising new troops for me?

[The Incredible John]

I see a very profitable unfortunate war looming in the horizon.

I won't be starting it.

Just a quick note after skimming through on my phone...John the people of Dont are Aznavarian, they are angry about having alliance leaders and close alliance relations, next ti none of its people are going to happily move to the alliamce, you are going to have to take them by force or suffice with the minuscule number of workers you would get.

And Kangaroo, if you post a recruitment campain plus some money I will tell you how succesful it is. Roughly 1billion will get you between 100 and 1000 rregulars.
