You find yourself in an office just off some of the Nation's most important government offices in your best suit with sweat slowly beginning to roll down your forehead as the woman in front of you types away at a beige, bulky computer that takes up the majority of your desk. She finally looks up, and as if only just now noticing you were there she greets you in the bitter sweet voice of someone who hates their job, but is trying to hide it.

"Hello, I assume you're here to fill out the required forms for a Defense Contractor or Agency that has taken up roots in this nation, if not you have the wrong room and will find the Draft Offices next door if you're attempting to get out of them, and the Welfare Agency next door to that if you're yet another jobless hobo with nice clothes. You're still here? Good then I'll assume you actually are here for legitimate reasons, take this, sit over there, and once you're done filling it out hand it back to me and you'll be free to go back and start your work."

With that the woman slides a clipboard with a single sheet of paper covered in neat lines, blank spaces for signing, and very clear warnings against minor things like domestic terrorism, espionage, and informing on the nation to other nations. Sighing you pick up the clipboard, take a pen from a nearby cup, and set to filling it out ...

     - University Backing (Effect: More starting scientists)

For those of you wondering this is a suggestion game where you the players will be controlling a Defense Contractor working for whichever nation you choose to start in (and possibly more if you wish to delve into more illegal trafficking means) where your role is to research, and develop weapons for use in the various wars, struggles, and disputes they encounter. Your basic goal is to keep researching new techs, developing new and better weapons, and just generally try to survive in an alternate universe version of Earth where Nazi Germany survived World War 2, the USSR gained substantial power, and numerous powerful states appeared out of the post WW2 chaos.

Its meant to be a fairly serious game with some silly elements to it that will probably quickly become apparent as the game progresses, all in all the point of it is to have fun, and see how badly you guys can manage to fuck over the world in the process. :P

Quote from: RAM
You should really look to the wilderness for your stealth ideas, it has been doing it much longer than you have after all. Take squids for example, that ink trick works pretty well, and in water too! So you just sneak into the dam upsteam, dump several megatons of distressed squid into it, then break the dam. Boom, you suddenly have enough water-proof stealth for a whole city!

There is, but the Papal States don't allow any Defense Contractors within their borders unless they are directly ran, and funded by them.

We can always be Nazis. Not all of them were horrible people, only most of them.

Which is EXACTLY why we should be them, Generic is pretty rare on Bay12. It would almost be NON Generic because it is so abnormal.

I don't know, I do have a Nazi character set aside who is blind and wears a swastika-inscribed red blindfold.

Agree, plus that's about the LAST thing *I* want to see from this kind of game - author spending valuable development time on useless graphics.
