Movement Question
Say Country 1 has units A and B and Country 2 has units C and D. What would happen if A supports B to C, and C supports D to B at the same time? Do the moves cancel out, or does B move to C (dislodging it) and D moves to B?

No Build phase
Hey guys. I'm a new user and I'm playing a game with friend (ID is 206642) and I'm wondering if there is a bug or a rule we missed. I'm playing as Germany and I have 6 supply centers, 5 units and no build phase. I'm also curious if the game didn't register a capture of a supply center. I was in Warsaw and then took Moscow the next turn. I captured Moscow and not Warsaw. Can a vet help out some newbies?

Study music recommendations
Hey guys I'd appreciate it if you could recommend music that's helpful for studying. I ( like many) find it difficult to concentrate on immediate concerns like getting physics homework out of the way or starting a paper on whatever subject. I've tried classical music and it helps though some classical music I imagine is better than others for this. If you can recommend artists I'd appreciate it.

BRAINBOT:
The shuttle helm is able to escape the gravity of Ynbar (8.76m/s).
It is a craft able to hold several people. It can also perform re-entry and has a plated heat shield. As well as deployable parachutes. It floats and wont sink. We have had little time to check its heat shield which bore the brunt of our atmospheric entry to ynbar. We have not run the standard checks for a normal shuttle launch. However the weight of the shuttle helm is 1/27th the weight we left earth with.

This mission to get him (commando) to the warhead will cost us 1 fuel.

We have around 16 hours til we must launch the shuttle helm if that is our plan.
----
I am flagging SpaceX as they wanted to declare war and assist vs ATK. Xavier apparently was compelled by your desire for peace with ATK. He seems to think launching a nuke at you is malicious and unforgiveable.

As a side note - I imagine a cyborg taking bonerjams2090 would be quite hilarious.

CEO and Chairman Xavier Musk


Hey I understand guys. You need to realize that you chose us as financiers and investors. We care about you. I dont want some two-bit jerks attacking you.

However you want us to practice restraint. That is admirable. These peope are trying to nuke you. If thats some funny mind game and they wanna see what you do; frankly thats really disgusting.

We will establish a military presence in the region and not attack them. If they agree to a cease fire our ships can remain as a peacekeeping force.

Additionally I noted you guys had some issues with a lack of metals. We can provide you some assistance in this. In two phases Space X (phase IV) will provide you a stipend of 3000 Steel to help you get up and running. We will.also give you additional Populace and a Specialist if you are interested.

This chat is open you can ask me anything.

can i offer a suggestion to fellow councilors - can we not make official proposals or at least not make our votes until at least 24 hours into a phase... following things gets pretty disjointed with proposals being added all the time, and ongoing voting .... just imo

let's do more role play and planning ... then do our voting...
Bladerunners (804 D)
05 Aug 17 UTC
ok - we seem to have a plan to stop the nuke and get some help from space x ...i'm with the chairman though, why do we want to make peace with russian terrorists who fired a nuke at us?

we have some good building, research, fishing, metals coming etc.

what else do we want to do to build/protect our colony ... i think we need to look into making some land arable for crops, reforestation? also - should we start building some housing for our population instead of having them live on the ship
Bladerunners (804 D)
05 Aug 17 UTC
also - we should agree on who can make decisions 'in phase; ... our president logical but he may want to assign authority in phase too or permanently

BRAINBOT:
I have noted an issue.
The scientist cannot remove a device from the cyborg; and also rush a tech discovery. Its one or the other.
leon1122 (190 D)
05 Aug 17 UTC
Message to Space X: Many thanks for the assistance!

Bladerunners, I'll try to refrain from making proposals within 24 hours of phase change in the future.

Anyone can send instant messages as long as it isn't controversial. If it is controversial, we should get a consensus.

As for Brainbot's issue, I suggest rushing the tech and keeping the device in place for now as long as we keep the cyborg in a place where he can't hear us.

I have another proposal, but it's late in the phase now, so I'll save it for next phase. I noticed that we have a stat on education level. We should keep people educated, so I suggest starting up K-12 education soon.

I would expect the beetle to be extinct on this planet now since it single-handedly destroyed its habitat.

@Leon- Possibly we could request an expert in the area of terraforming. That type of knowledge should help us redevelop this planets lush jungles. Alternatively if we ever leave this planet for any reason that knowledge can be useful anywhere. ??

BRAINBOT:
Ynbar is experiencing rapid Desertification.

Desertification is a type of land degradation in which relatively dry area of land becomes increasingly arid, typically losing its bodies of water as well as vegetation and wildlife. It is caused by a variety of factors, such as through climate change and through the overexploitation of soil through human activity. When deserts appear automatically over the natural course of a planet's life cycle, then it can be called a natural phenomenon; however, when deserts emerge due to the rampant and unchecked depletion of nutrients in soil that are essential for it to remain arable, then a virtual "soil death" can be spoken of, which traces its cause back to human overexploitation. Desertification is a significant global ecological and environmental problem.

Desertification has played a significant role in human history, contributing to the collapse of several large empires, such as Carthage, Greece, and the Roman Empire, as well as causing displacement of local populations. Historical evidence shows that the serious and extensive land deterioration occurring several centuries ago in arid regions had three epicenters: the Mediterranean, the Mesopotamian Valley, and the Loess Plateau of China, where population was dense.

Counter Measures and Obstacles.

The problem on Ynbar is manmade. The raimforests were abundant and lush around the start of the 21st century. The Emerald Borer Beetle, left unchecked ruined the ecosystem of Ynbar. It is assumed however that the food source of the beetle has driven the beetle to its own near extinction as well. To ensure the beetle does not come back, transportation of wood from an old area to a new area is strongly advised against

A solution for clearing areas to bring back forests would be removal of sand layers to search for soil beneath. Then planting trees and providing a dome over these areas - or greenhouses could create the beginnings of rainforest restoration.

If a solution to Ynbar is discovered it may be instrumental in saving parts of Earth as well (South America, North Africa, Australia) Rainforests on earth are similarly devastated by land clearance.

I would like to import Mangroves to our area, they specialize in growing in low-oxygen soil near bodies of water, If we can start by redeveloping the ecology around the water we can inch our way inland.

Leon, your 10 man guard would remove them from the work force wouldn't it?
Also, I don't think more colonists right now would be wise, we need to build a surplus of food and get more ways of producing food before we take on more people.
