Need to actually have an ability to get into space before putting guns up there...

185000 will be used to start reasearch on basic orbital habitats, we can improve on these but we don't yet have the technology.

Just so you know, you can make life support pods already (Something everyone can do). However, these pods cannot support many people. A basic orbital habitat would increase the number of people that can be supported, which reduces the number of life support pods needed in a space station.
Exactly, we also need hydroponics to feed them more cheaply and AIs to effectivly manage it.

And mass drivers would of been another T2 unit tech, but oh well. Lasers+Mass drivers=Weaponized Mass drivers  :D

From mass drivers, it's a short jump to rail guns.

Didn't I attempt to invade Italy as well? What happened to that?

I sent the intire force in france to take back Italy. Including some in Switz.
Why did nothing happen?

Things did happen. It's just that Egypt had better units in Italy, and defeated your attack force. I forgot to put it in the memo.

Aw well. So there goes any chance of living through this. Now I gues theres just one thing left to do...

I give switzerland, all my money and tech, AND the service of Alexander Julius Maximus to...

The Imperialist Bastard. Hey, I gotta leave my people in the hands of someone that can defend them, and I just really want to spite the United Empire.

Edit: I also hope Germany dies slowly in a fire for helping to kill off any chance of my survival.

...Fuck, THEY GOT AMERICA! THAT WAS MY JOB!

The Actions of the Socialist Union of Free Alaska:
Eight Infantry Divisions shall be trained and baptized in our fellow American's blood, from inside Alaska.

The First Alaskan Liberators shall invade the weakened Canada. Which is all my Ground Forces in Alaska.

Naval Units operating under Sheb shall continue.

Oh no? How horrible? Whatever will I do? This is extremely inconvenient, oh wait

Well, Switzerland then. I mean, it's not fair if you get to swat all the annoying little dictators out there alone!
Oh, you're totally welcome to Switzerland.  :D

This is me, doing my best to remove any satisfaction you may have in your attempts to spite me.

I lol'ed  :D

So, by the way, my, Sheb's and Halsantium's embargo of the USA and II had no effect?

Fanatic in Morroco should be Laser Fanatic.

So the entirety Fleet 2 was annihilated? Ouch.

How many sea zones do I control by the way?

With victory following upon glorious victoy we have also conquered the chief territory of that vile pretender, the United Nations! Our glorious empire stretches from the northern most point of Africa all the way to the most Southern! Our power grows greater with each passing day and our loyal legions will soon vanquish the wretched remains of the United Nations! WE WILL REIGN SUPREME IN AFRICA!"

The crowd roars in approval at the last sentence.

Excerpt from the book "Deadly Times", by Edgar R. Marton.
The United States of America, Looking Back:

While large parts of the world expressed shock and surprise of the sudden crumbling of the USA empire and the swift capitulation of its remnants to the the UE, in hindsight it should come as no surprise. The corpulent, walking corpse that was the USA had become a slothful, gluttonous, consumerist, morally deficient country with a neverending appetite for consumer goods, fast food and energy. With the rapid rise of new dictators in Russia, Egypt, and Australia, all of which were respectable sized world powers with relatively strong economies, the USA, in fear of being swarmed by masses of smaller but more numerous countries, adopted agressive, shortsighted, desperate tactics to prevent its doom, ironically enough sealing their doomed fate.

Annexing neigbouring countries like Canada and Mexico and subsuming former protectorates and allies like Japan, the USA hoped to become too large for even the rest of the world combined to be able to defeat them. Shock, rage and fear was the general response to these sudden imperial moves on the part of the Americans. And then China fell to the Russians. Rather than realizing that this mean they should immediately seek peace with the Russians to prevent a catastrophic war would ruin both America and Russia, this only drove the Americans on.

With the chief supplier of their consumer goods and trinkets in what they viewed as enemy hands, the USA became more and more desperate. Worse, the II blockaded the Russians, preventing them from trading with the USA, while pretending to be the USA to the Russians and vice versa, rising tensions on both sides. The move also caused unrest in American territories as prices soared and goods became more and more scarce. And the Russians continued their expansion into India and other exporters to America, making the USA's problems worse and worse as they lost more revenue. The Americans were facing dire straits and did the only thing they could do in this sort of situation. No, not stop the blockade and attempt to repair the serious problems in their system. Oh no.

They nuked Asia into a glowing wasteland. Unprecendented mass slaughter on a global scale. The Americans killed more people in a week than were killed in the entirety of WWII. Riots boke out like a wildfire across American soil in protest to these inhuman deeds, the UN officially rebuked the USA, strikes were omnipresent as people refused to work under such a evil regime and the USA was on the verge of collapsing.

Meanwhile, Egypt had conquered the Middle East and large chunks of Africa. Between them, Egypt, Australia and Russia had control over large parts of the food and biofuel producing territoties of the Earth. Outraged at the heinous actions of the United States of America, they then proceeded to cut off the lifeblood of that once great nation. For while America produced large quantities of food and biofuel, their population and fuel needs had simply become too large for them to supply all their own needs and they imported large amounts of their food and biofuel in order to satiate their insatiable needs. And as their chief suppliers cut them off, and their own stores ran out, famine, turmoil and anarchy descended upon America.

Riots ran rampant. The streets flowed with blood and the federal government imploded under the enormous weight of the chaos their had been plunged into. Desperate to save something, the remains of the state governments looked for a saviour. Someone that could restore their once formiddable economy, someone who could restore law and order, someone who could protect them from their outraged, avaricious, aggressive neighbours, someone who could once more lead them to greatness. And then they found their saviour. The United Empire.

Slowly at first, one by one, and then in a great tidal flood, the States of America swore their fealty to the United Empire. And that was a beginning of a great new dawn for America.

So, is it happening?  ???

How many sea zones do I control by the way?

The effects of the blockade of the USA and II has occured (It's why II lost 97,000 this turn.)

You currently control 1 sea zone.

With the chief supplier of their consumer goods and trinkets in what they viewed as enemy hands, they blockaded Russia in order to destroy them financially, they it is believed that the economic damage this caused to their own country than it ever did to the Russians. The move also caused unrest in American territories as prices soared and goods became more and more scarce. And the Russians continued their expansion into India and other exporters to America, making the USA's problems worse and worse as they lost more revenue. The Americans were facing dire straits and did the only thing they could do in this sort of situation. No, not stop the blockade and attempt to repair the serious problems in their system. Oh no.

The US never blockaded Russia. It was the II, remember?

Meanwhile, Egypt had conquered the Middle East and some chunks of Africa. Between them, Egypt and Russia had control over the majority of the oil reserves of Earth.
Outraged at the heinous actions of the United States of America, they then proceeded to cut off the lifeblood of that once great nation, oil. While it took a few months for the flow to completely dry up and for their reserves to be utterly exhausted, the panic that ensued was inevitable.

Actually, all the oil in the Middle East and Africa have already been used up. Not much oil is left in the world. Plus, when the UN was actually something to be feared, they weaned the world off its oil dependency and onto alternative fuel sources.

Besides that, everything else is okay story wise.

Aw, well I wrote that thing in about half a hour after a sudden flash of inspiration. I'm tempted to keep it like it is and pretend the UE bribed Edgar to take a bit of artistic licence with it, but I respect Edgar and his principles too much to believe he would do such a thing so I'll to change it a bit to fit into the lore. I completely forgot that it was actually the II that blockaded Russia. Thanks for reminding me. Was that common knowledge however? The Russians certainly believed it was the USA and I know of no reason for the UE to believe differently. Certainly the II hasn't revealed this ingame have they? And Edgar is probably living in either Russia or the UE probably? Since we are in control of most the Earth.

Ah okay on the embargo. I was confused cos it said "Due to rioting, police overtime, and minster termination"

What exactly are the alternative fuel sources? Biofuel? Hydrogen? Renewable electric? It'll affect how I edit the oil part of my little wall of text.

I WAS THE ONE EMBARGOING YOU!!!

I believe that it is common knowledge now.

Also, I put "Due to rioting, police overtime, and minster termination", since he lost most of his west coast. Having a minister complain about losing money in countries you no long have seems kinda stupid.

Biofuel and Hydrogen cells powers our vehicles, while we get electricity from a variety of sources, like wind, tidal, hydro and nuclear.

Is this all you need?

Phantom doesn't have the tech to send secret underwater subs.

At least, not yet.
