OH NO! SOMEONE ON THE INTERNET HAS A FETISH!

Being fiddled at a young age doesn't make you have 50 fetishes. I've had friends who were raped at a young age, one by her own uncle, and they're very clear cut individuals. They don't LIKE to try weird shit. You're just weird, Seed. :v: [editline]12th April 2012[/editline] [QUOTE=Obnobs;35549337]OH NO!

1872; Previous year turn for the [b]South American Empire[/b] by [b]Stethor[/b] - Ireland is issued food and general aid supplies along with the materials to establish industry within those regions wrecked by rebellion and civil unrest. - Large amounts of military personnel, hardware and equipment are mobilized to the Irish island. It becomes compulsory that each and every unit should stand to serve at least one tour of duty there. - Factories within Ireland are geared to independently produce war materials. These are serviced and put to the use by directly supplying the SAE military. Resultantly, the required goods no longer have to be exported across the Atlantic and the ordeal is much more efficient. - It is explained to the present RoNC forces rather aggressively that they will leave Ireland or suffer forced eviction. - SAE aircraft and mechanized units receive greater investment. Chinese models and designs are copied and production commences. - Some SAE men join the Canadian expedition to the South Pole. They all die alongside their Canadian colleagues before the Pole is reached. - A nationwide search for all promising inventors begins. Those who are discovered participate in a conference to display their individual and overall talent. Still waiting for SAE, Portugal, Canada, India and the People's Caliphate.

I texted him about it and he forwarded his from wizard

Ven, send your turn, and India hasn't been online for 10 days, I don't think he is going to post it this time, and Portugal hasn't been on for 3 days also

I did send my fuckin turn

I'm looking at my Inbox right now. There is no Canadian or People's Caliphate turn.

Just stop your bellyaching and send in another turn Ven. It's obvious Children did not get the turn.

Hrm you know what it might be because for some reason it sent the turn to "EatChildren" not "Eat Children"

1873 [b]Inventions and discoveries of 1873[/b] - Radar by China. - Desalination techniques by the People's Caliphate and China. - Railway operating weapon design by the People's Caliphate. - Hazmat suits by West Germany. - Sealable Tanks by West Germany. - The Tabulating Computer by Russia. - Nerve Gas by Austria. - Botulism poison gas by Austria. - A treatment for Mustard Gas wounds by Austria. - Long range ballistic missiles by Canada. [b]World Events of 1873.[/b] - With military and espionage efforts escalating on both sides of the German split, war in Europe is beginning to look increasingly unpreventable. - With the submissive nature of the weak Luxembourg government, West German troops march into the nation to a cold but subdued reception having annexed the nation. - A mysterious religious sect has appeared in Eastern France. Defined by their limited yet fanatically devoted support they have held meetings and services across Western Europe during which they pray to the strung-up corpses of deceased Catholics and give their life servitude to the supposed three Gods who oversee the goings of the world. - Beyond the absolute control of the supreme council of the 'Eight Enlightened Apostles' there is little internal order and the matter of recruitment is achieved entirely through word of mouth or through pamphlets. Those who dare to refuse the attempted conversion are brutally murdered. - Due to the secrecy in their operations and to the bizarre nature of their rituals, most authorities simply refuse to believe that the sect exists. Those who do believe can only determine that they initially originated in Lyon. This discovery matters little however, as members of the sect have already infiltrated far beyond the French borders. The increase in their popularity is slow but highly extensive. - The Russian and Indian forces are struggling to crush the civil disobedience that has developed in Kazakhstan. The matter intensifies somewhat when the uprising spilling over into the land that was once Afghanistan with some unrest occurring even in far western China. Beginning initially as lowly objections to the imperialistic efforts of Russia and India on Kazakhstan, a mighty rebellion has occurred with order and authority ceasing completely in some regions of central Asia. - From nothing, a large scale guerrilla effort emerges within Ireland to attempt to oust the SAE presence and their incumbent puppet government. With clashes centered in the western and northern reaches of Ireland, rebels and government forces claw for supremacy in tight urban combat within Derry and the small villages surrounding Belfast. In addition, armed unrest is reported deep inside Dublin. - While any lesser government may have collapsed, the SAE forces are comprehensively trained for such a uprising and the sheer weight of their military occupation of the island ensures that the rebels do not gain any large swathes of territory nor do they manage to maintain any settlements captured. Regardless, industry and order across the island have taken a heavy knock. - The capability of these Irish rebels is amazing. Despite their position in the world, they are well trained, well armed and well supplied. Your guess is as good as mine. (This is my legacy? Fuck.) - Piracy within the Atlantic Ocean has witnessed a considerable comeback with the rise of globalism and international trade. These are not common criminals. They are organised and attack in large numbers with fleets to rival those of professional navies. - There are instances of raids across the western coast of Portuguese Africa where the people, Native or Colonial, are pillaged and massacred. Oil depots on the Nigerian Delta are set ablaze and burn without end for months. The SAE and Gran Colombia are not exempt from occurrences of this type. Attempts are made on the Chinese holdings although the pirates are blown out of the water due to the extend of the Chinese defenses. (Chinese ships suffer standard procedure). - How these scum came to be so well armed and well financed are matters unknown and 'untraceable'. - The world is essentially becoming more liberal to notions such as Prostitution, pornography and sexuality in general. This combined with rising standards of living and healthcare, the world is experiencing a 'baby boom'. The situation in Europe suggests it may need it. [b]Austria[/b] by KriegsMar1ne - A large fortification effort takes place consisting of entrenched gun placements, anti-mechanized and anti-aircraft weaponry constructed above a hefty network of underground networks and bunkers. Quite predictably, the 'Luzendorf Stronghold' is positioned by the border with those pesky West Germans. - A series of reforms are enacted which over-arch to include seemingly all aspects of the Austrian military with numerous new designs and models forwarded for mass production followed by field service. - Flamethrowers are produced and make their appearance on the battlefield within special 'Sturm Pioneer' squadrons. Additionally, the tank is tweaked so that the flamethrower may potentially function as the primary weapon. - The existing Semi-Automatic Rifle, gas mask, smoke grenade, body armor and camouflage designs all undertake standard improvements to increase their performance. Notably, the new battledress is produced from a lightweight, durable plastic and rubber material and with the incorporation of a gas mask it covers the body entirely. Thus, rendering the use of airborne based chemical weaponry useless and completely ineffective. - A program to introduce a unique wave of super-soldiers through the use of steroid drugs concludes as an absolute failure. Many patients begin to experience violent Heart failures, expiring within the first week. Those who do survive abandon all sense of duty or loyalty to Austria, working together to gruesomely butcher their commanding officers in a single, coordinated assault. The exiled leader of the program now lives in California where he is seeking a political career. - A pioneering coma inducing nerve gas is manufactured. As well as this, a destructive new poison gas is discovered. The byproduct of heating Botulism to intense heats, it attacks the Lungs of the victim, rendering them dead within moments. - The buddy system of a two-man sniper unit is realized and quickly becomes a proven tactic. Such that an entire division is created to host these Sniper-Spotter pairs. - Three battleships, Three Destroyers and Five Submarines are hastily constructed and await command. Austrian industry is now almost entirely devoted to the possibility of an outbreak of war. - Many projects involving artillery, tanks and bomber aircraft are suggested yet they remain in development. This is due to the allocation of funding to developing the terrifying bad asses of the Austrian infantry. - Manufacturing, logistics and healthcare all witness general improvements. A treatment for Mustard Gas wounds is discovered. - Television sets have become commonplace. The government exploits them to full measure as an instrument to distribute propaganda, recruitment advertisements and pornography. - Horst Wessel Lied is made the national anthem. This combined with the endless degree of propaganda leads morale and public hatred of West Germany to delirious levels. - A refugee camp is constructed on the border with West German administrated Switzerland. There is some success with local villagers leaving with their families. However, the border is now so heavily guarded and patrolled that it is near impossible to ferry people through. - Swiss politicians in exile are welcomed into Austria. - West Germany is publicly berated for their holdings of Switzerland. Their punishment is issued in the shape of an embargo. - Fascists, Communists and espionage agents are both imprisoned for lengthy periods or executed. - Ties with Gran Colombia and East Germany are reinforced with a sharp increase of trade - The Austrian President has become most likely the most heavily guarded official in the world. Testament to the overall paranoia of the country. [b]East Germany[/b] by Mr.Face - The 2nd, 4th, 5th, 7th and 13th armies position themselves on the Rhine border where they begin a major preemptive defensive campaign. By the fall of the year the defenses of the natural border are such that many view them as impenetrable. - The takeover of Switzerland by West Germany is a declared unjust and against the will of the Swiss people. Resultantly, all trade is ended with West Germany. - Reforms are made with the aim of improving healthcare in the nation. [b]Gran Colombia[/b] by Eli45 - The lucrative industry of exploiting the Earth's riches is increasingly invested into. Mining projects are continued and multiply. Oil rigs are refined so that they are more efficient and therefore more profitable. However, this has the nasty aftereffect of a slight rise in fatalities as the incentive to make more money causes dastardly managers to make cuts in the wrong areas. - A new model of gas mask is distributed to all infantry units that is successful in filtering even the most volatile of chemicals. - The efforts to manufacture and weaponize a highly toxic and deadly gas are successful. - While auto loading tank weaponry remains in the prototype stage more accomplishment is found in developing a 60mm Stub cannon. - Pornography is invested into. Filthy Latino women enter the field and the world is forever changed. - Trade is reopened with Oceania. [b]West Germany[/b] by [Seed Eater] - Wurttemberg is blamed for the bombing incident that murdered countless West German agents as well as the entire Wurttemberg political assembly at the time. - Hans Guttenberg, the President of Wurttemberg is imprisoned indefinitely until it is possible for him to be cleared of charges. - Luxembourg is leaned on to join West Germany with emphasis placed on the fact that the two nations share valued ideologies and were already within an alliance. Arguably a mere puppet state to begin with, the Luxembourg government submits and the small nation is peacefully annexed. - The same cannot be told for Switzerland however. Protesting and unrest is heavy across the Swiss people with many frightened of the unfamiliar, extensive and thorough social change that is promised by the West German controlling body. Though these protests are typically violent and some West German troops are indeed killed, the protests are sporadic and quickly subdued by the heavy military presence present within the land. - Trade is opened with Russia. - West Germany works with the RoNC to establish ComRADE (Communists and Reds for Democracy on Earth). - Financial aid and technology is received from the RoNC. - Propaganda predominantly focused on the military now consists of 10% of the West German economy. Those who volunteer are promised a set pay increase of 10% of their current wage. The weight of the military bulges. - Tanks which can be completely sealed are researched. Secondly, full body battledresses familiar to modern Hazmat uniforms are also researched. These assure that the West German military can effectively combat the chemical warfare propounded by Austria and East Germany. Motivation and performance within the military grows as a result. [b]Republic of Nordic Communes[/b] by Obnobs - ComRADE is established with West Germany. - The RoNC comply by the demands of the SAE. As requested, all RoNC troops leave Ireland. - A new military concept known as 'Black OP' warfare is introduced. Scopes, individually issued high explosives, portable radio equipment and weapons with silencer technology additions all become the recognized standard for RoNC forces. - A portion of the armed forces positioned on the border with Russia are moved to the Danish border with East Germany. - West Germany is ensured that their occupation of Switzerland has the full military backing of the RoNC. - The straight that separates Jutland and the remainder of Scandinavia is blocked. All ships that wish to pass must first be checked for shipments of weapons. Ships that disobey the maneuver are shot at with order to sink. [b]Russia[/b] by Eat Children - The Department of Economic Motion (DoEM) is created to discover why the Russian Economy is failing and then find solutions. It begins with a large budget which is tripled by the year's end. - Huge parcels of Siberian land are promised, free of charge, to those who can successfully 'tame' and exploit the tundra for means of industry & enterprise. - Many aspiring industrialists head east to discover their fortunes. Resultantly, there are direct increases in Timber, Iron, Oil and Rare Metal yields as reserves are located beneath the Siberian forests. - A Crude oil pipeline is constructed along the Trans-Siberian Railway. It begins at Novosibirsk and connects the mines of the east and the factories of the west. - More factories are build, primarily in the Oil and metal production industries. - Minimum wage is increased by 15%. - Greece is declared an 'administrative zone' under Russian control. Greek politicians are allowed to govern their nation through the Russian parliament but they are not allowed into the Russian parliament. Taxes are lowered, direct military and economic assistance is given and work begins to rebuild the nation before they are fully incorporated. - Hoping to profit from the rapidly liberalizing nature of the world, sex laws across the nation are heavily relaxed. - A district in the center of Moscow is created named 'Sodom'. Two whole blocks dedicated to sex theaters, seedy hotels, poker halls, drug dens, Burlesque clubs and other crude shows. In the streets there are acrobats and other performers. Prostitution is legalised and taxed. Maple Syrup fountains flow freely as decorations. - To enter Sodom, an expensive pass is required but this is mainly to keep locals out. Large discounts are offered to foreigners. Sodom quickly becomes popular and is higly successful in seperating horny fools and their money. - The Tabulating Computer is invented. - Work on the 'Moscow Underground' train network is continued. It is 75% finished now. - A new carbonated soft drink is brewed. Renowned for it's sweet, pleasurable taste and low cost. Due to it's Cocaine contents, it is named Coca-Cola. - Kazakhstan research into rocket engines and missile is found and exploited. It is quickly implemented into military use. - The budget of the Armed Forces is doubled. The technological branch has it's individual budget quadrupled. - The R73-SIR 'Standard Infantry Rifle' is introduced. Semi-Automatic Rifle known for it's simple and rudimentary design but also it's hardiness and accuracy. - The R73-T is derived from the SIR. An anti-armor, bolt-action rifle, it fires large, steel core 13.2mm bullets that punch through the thick shell of a tank. Based on the Mauser 1918 T-Gewehr. - The R73-PM, Heavy Machine Gun is introduced, firing 7.62x54mm rounds. - The modern 'Helicopter' structure is developed and implemented for military use. Two models of the new Helicopter design are introduced, both made from an alloy of Aluminium and Titanium: - A single-rotor, Close-air support/Attack Helicopter, named the R73-HA. Carrying a crew of two (Driver, Radio operator) it is designed to fly low at high speeds and strike artillery and mechanized infantry with rocket fire. - A double-rotor, Troop Transport/Evac Helicopter, named the R73-HB. Carrying a crew of three (Driver, Radio operator, Gunner) it much larger than the R73-HA class and serves to carry teams of men to the battlefield and evacuate the wounded. - The battledress of the Russian infantry is re-imagined. It is nicknamed 'Bear Armor' by the troops. Light, water-resistant fibers are woven between two layers of cloth to create the new fabric of the uniform. Other inclusions are puttees, a gas mask and a Stahlhelm, steel helmet. All white during winter and standard khaki shades otherwise. - Officer training is intensified heavily to increase military strength/performance - 25 tank and 25 Airplane/Helicopter production facilities are built. - Russia and West Germany have become trade partners. - Orders are given for regular patrol of the Kazakh steppes and for troops to be raw and unforgiving when dealing with rebels. [b]People's Caliphate of United Islam[/b] by UrbanMachismo - An alliance is entered with China. - Named the greatest engineering project of its time, Arabian and Chinese scientists work to develop Desalination plants capable of removing the irregularities of sea water and making it consumable. The Persian Gulf, the Red Sea and the Mediterranean feed colossal networks of pipes that traverse the Caliphate. Further ambitions are to irrigate, fertilize and genetically alter the Saharan Desert into a replenished state from which crops can be drawn. It will be several more years before this can be achieved. - Algeria and Nigeria are asked to join the Caliphate. The Caliphate noting that they will benefit greatly from the Saharan project. The two nations refuse, deploring the claims as insane and impossible to the hands of man. Only once they see results will they agree to join. - Two pieces of artillery are produced: A 210mm Heavy Howitzer and a Rocket launching mechanism mounted onto a flatbed truck. Of a maximum 20 rockets it fires at 2 per second. - The heavily financed 'railway' project is half successful. The 240mm beast of a cannon successfully attached to a railway line works, yet the mount requires further refinement. It will be ready next year. - The remaining military projects you noted will also be ready next year. - Oil and rare metal industries are invested into and the railway is expanded. - Grants into the field of scientific education results in a more literate and aware populace. However, this leads more people to question Allah. Believe in a God drops below 98% for the first time in the Caliphate's history. - A counter-espionage organization is established. They take great pride in the strength and security of their operations. - Those discovered to be agents operating against the Caliphate are tried for treason and publicly executed. Hanging in urban areas, beheading, stoning and other means of mutilation in rural areas. A sickening display for a civilized nation. [b]China[/b] by Ruskie - Typical Chinese procedure. The military is overhauled and the economy is engaged to expand into those sectors either with great promise and potential or at risk of becoming neglected. - Those weapons noted in the 1872 turn begin regular service after replacing the previous models completely. - The effort of mechanizing the armed force's supply lines continues into the second year. The Horse or Mule system of delivering necessary supplies is abandoned completely. Half-tracks capable of off road delivery are now tasked with handling the role. - With large investment into education, 75% of the nation's citizens can now read and write. Those who cannot read or write either live away from the urban areas and maintain the peasant life of their ancestors or they belong to a culture that is hastily dying out. - The newly formed Chinese police force happens on their first major issue. Impoverished Korean and Japanese are emigrating to China in their hundreds of thousands having preferred their own nations when they were under Chinese governance. They bring their criminal underlings with them. Consequently, crime rates witness a sharp rise. - The Navy and Airforce receive many new toys to play with: > 7,500 Type (A-F/B)71 fighter aircraft. > 2,500 Type (A-S/B)71 heavy bomber aircraft. > 7 Type NS(AC)-72 Aircraft Carriers > 30 Type Ns(DN)-72 Battleships > 70 Type NS(SD)-72 Destroyers with a revolutionary inbuilt radar system. [b]Oceania[/b] by Intoxicated Spy - Communist and Socialist ideologies are declared impure diseases and crimes against humanity that require swift eradication. - Those accused of been Communists or Socialists are rounded up and executed alongside their sympathizers. There is no mercy by the government nor is there any major cry out by the Oceanic people. - The mass of the collective armed forces bulges as recruitment is intensified. - Phallic shaped Airships are designed. What sets them apart from the Airships of Russia and West Germany is the inclusion of a frontal cannon. - The barrel and scope of the adopted Bolt-Action Rifle are improved providing better accuracy and service for the armed forces. - A Tank is produced with 55mm armor and 100mm cannon. It is by far the slowest tank in service. [b]Confederacy of Democratic Socialist Canadian Territories[/b] by Ven Kaeo (happy birthday) - The name of the country is changed as displayed above. - The invasion of the United States continues: - Group designated 'Alpha' advances though Central Eastern America before becoming bogged down on the Appalachians. The cities of Memphis, Nashville, Baltimore and Washington DC are completely encircled. The besieged defenders, starved and forced to resort to using their own urine in manufacturing gunpowder, battle on. But by the fall of the year Canadian forces break through the trenches and DC is finally overrun. A flag of triumph is risen over the remains of the White House and the battalion that fought to the last man defending it. Following this, Memphis, Nashville, Baltimore all surrender. Atlanta is announced as the new capital. - Group designated 'Beta' is stopped completely at the Mississippi with some of the most ferocious and desperate fighting witnessed in the war. All bridges are destroyed before they can be crossed. As Canadian forces attempt to cross, Steamers filled with explosives crash into the side of the Canadian ship before detonating. The river turns grey with soot. - New Orleans is assaulted after the Canadian forces finally traverse the Bayou. It is like hitting a rotted wooden door with a siege ram and the city is quickly liberated. - Group designated Delta has had the easiest task of the three Army groups. They smash through Florida, capturing Carolina and linking with Group Alpha as they do so. - The loyalty of the Confederacy is called into question. They are asked for their support in dissolving the United States. Only Minnesota, New York, Vermont and New Hampshire assist. The others remain rigid regardless of the Canadian propaganda effort. - Long range ballistic missiles are research. They receive extensive testing during the war. - Nuclear reactors receive better shielding from the harmful effects of radiation. - Work on the Bering Straight bridge continues with railways extended to meet it. Just one more year. - A large counter-espionage organization is established. They are highly successful in discovering numerous spy cells within the country. They are quickly given show trials for treason and executed. I don't have any music to give you so here's a nice drawing: [IMG]http://i.imgur.com/114LC.jpg[/IMG] [QUOTE][b]Airship City[/b] by jollyjack@DeviantArt [i]"What if Europe was taller?"[/i][/QUOTE]

Yes, I'm okay with this. We're not-so-inching towards war, here, Feds. [editline]13th April 2012[/editline] Also, can you tell what I'm doing there? With those tanks and suits? Get what I'm getting at?

[QUOTE=Eat Children;35562820]1873 [/QUOTE] All my diplomatic and Internal affairs were not sent as the message didn't go through, Could I possible resend them and have them edited in?

[quote=Eat Children]- Pornography is invested into. Filthy Latino women enter the field and the world is forever changed.[/quote] You did well

I think this would be an appropriate musical score for this turn considering what's happening. [video=youtube;U5oO6wBrp8s]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U5oO6wBrp8s[/video] [editline]13th April 2012[/editline] Also I really love how EC did the turn. LOTS of detail. I loved how he described the battle for the United States. Although I did mention that soldiers should offer surrender to every group of Americans possible...

Lovely. It seems I will have to slightly modify how Allah is perceived to maintain religious unity. Should not be too hard if I just very subtlety make Allah out more to be the personification of the wisdom, courage, and dedication of man.

[QUOTE=Eat Children;35562820]1873 [b]Inventions and discoveries of 1873[/b] - Radar by China. - Desalination techniques by the People's Caliphate and China. - Railgun weapon design by the People's Caliphate. - Hazmat suits by West Germany. - Sealable Tanks by West Germany. - The Tabulating Computer by Russia. - Nerve Gas by Austria. - Botulism poison gas by Austria. - A treatment for Mustard Gas wounds by Austria. - Long range ballistic missiles by Canada. [/QUOTE] 1st a few things, The making of Botulism gas wasn't to really be told worldwide, Secondly "Railgun"? Like a Railway gun or a Magnetically Accelerated Cannon. The Latter I think would be massively out of date, If Arabia can have a MAC I should have nuke's? Also, you said injecting the Things with steroids went Awry, It has been done before and these were the Mutants that Kim made awhile back. I just gave them the same amount once again, It wouldn't have gone wrong.

Read Arabia's turn. It's a railway gun. [editline]14th April 2012[/editline] A bloody massive one at that. Holy fuck, Urban.

Don't allow nukes or MACs, they're way out of the world's range of technology at this point.

[QUOTE=Mr. Face;35563276]Don't allow nukes or MACs, they're way out of the world's range of technology at this point.[/QUOTE] Nuke thing was a joke. But technically a MAC COULD be created, It would just need some massive freaking magnets and a few other things.

Still out of the tech range for now. I'd have given it maybe 5-10 years.

Depends on how you look at it. We know exactly what does what and what causes what. So we can be much more focused in terms of research than they really were back then (As evidenced by there being nuclear reactors, submarines, battleships, and automatic weapons in 1873)

I really don't like this focused research, I find it really game breaking.

We are if the people of the 19th century knew about the tech of today, of course its going to go a bit faster
