If the USSR is going to invade, we should probably pack our belongings.


Hey, Harold. You should join Dante on his trip to sweden. I bet Swedish ice-cream is worth studying.

Edit: I could visit China.

Well it's gonna be a short trip. Offer gold for materials, preach a little about getting rich if they move to our islands then home to make guns.

Okay new idea. What if we talked to Germany?

The German marks (or dollars w.e currency was used then) is still near useless. With the gold we have we can surely negotiate something? Maybe get them to ensure our independance?

United Kingdom and France could also be asked to do the same thing. Gold in exchange for materials or Ensuring our Independence from the red menace.

Believe it or not the best option we have is to make our forces as formidable as possible to take on the soviet amphibious forces when they get here. Machine guns, Commandos, and Naval bombers to keep their battleships from shelling us to death. Heck submarines to take out any aircraft carriers would be immensely helpful.

No germany. After 2 world wars if we start funding them we turn the rest of the planet against us. But the UK and USA are in. The USA can supply almost all the materials we need and is full of poor people we can convince to join us.
As for the UK, whooping the ass of vastly numerically superior enemies through quality and training is what enabled them to build the biggest empire in human history. Especially the Royal Navy and the Royal Air Force so we need them.
Sweden already likes us so no reason not to bring them on board.

Commandos is my plan as well as hopefully getting some US Marines and or British Infantry to come train our soldiers. I'm gonna whip up a good MG to arm them with that can be dualed up to mount on ships.
We could use a good stable explosive for charges but I'm ballistics so not my area.

The UK and the USA basically cover everything we need but oil.

The Island of Plokhoy Ostrov: Small, remote, mostly undeveloped, communist, and with supplies of gold that (combined with the relative lack of a military) make it a temping target for the world at large. This was a situation clearly not acceptable to any of The Council, and one they took steps to fix. Offering free transport to any ex-military personnel, particularly any who say combat service, was one of the actions they took. Another was the implementation of the Militia, consisting of nearly citizen over the age of sixteen and under twenty-five. A third action they took was the creation of The Department of Ordinances, created to supply, and develop for, the military with arms and ammunition, along with almost anything else required by the military. It started small, a board of eight and a staff of thirty, made up of experts (Or any native citizen who signed on for it) from around the world, they where given little to start with,  A office building, a warehouse, and access to whatever materials the island had access to.

Dog dang people, eleven posts while I was putting this together? Shocking.

Also, your job descriptions do not include recruiting people, and the nation was not part of the USSR. They split off of Imperial Russia at the same time and let in people the USSR probally wanted to kill though.

ANd another two posts. ALso, the USA had oil, and to spare, at the time period.

We kinda need to recruit or we're going to get crushed by the first person to attack us. We don't have even a fraction of the man power we'd need to actually defend ourselves for any length of time.

But it will be done?
Can we atleast recruit specialist engineers? We know what we need and if were already negotiating in other countries a few personnel could easily be part of the deal.

Or request that this other department do it?

No. I suppose there are similarities, but I'm fairly certain angry birds doesn't let me charge into a battalion of knights with a car made of circular saws.

Well I'm a worker so I can't do any negotiations. So somebody else will need to do that.
