The Republic has better cookies and pastries. If the Empire has their way, nobody will ever have another proper cake.

Fool, we have rice treats of superior quality to your desserts! Rice, marshmallow, and chocolate formed into squares is a national treat. Caramel and other such sweeteners may be added as necessary.  Plus, it is well known that rice goes better with meat than bread! Look how it is eaten! Wheat is a sideshow, placed away from the meat and main course as not to taint it. Rice, on the other hand, is mixed in with the meat, creating a chorus of food as they work together to create a perfect dish. What of sandwiches you ask? The bread is only used to protect the insides, which people really want to eat. And noodles? An exception to the usual rule.

Your puny grain-based alcohols are no match for our noble rice-based alcohols!
Our rice products are pure and honest. We do not permeate ourselves with an endless torrent of yeast-infections! But you, filthy vermin that you are, pride yourselves upon it!

Does anyone else see the thread title and imagine upside-down blind people running on their hands?

Reports in respective thread.



You need a flag!

In this age of nationalism, its only proper that your nation needs a flag to be immediately recognizable in the larger world. Post your idea in the main thread. The best design gains a revision credit. You should choose and cull your design among yourselves if needed.

Minor rule revision:

Its understood that not everyone need a scoped rifle, or an HMG. Even if they are expensive, they should be able to provide for the needs of the whole army, as they are never needed in large amounts.

In future rounds, such support weapons will be treated as one step less expensive in game terms. Meaning if you design an expensive sniper rifle, they should be enough to cover the needs of the army.

Use your judgment to decide what weapons will be treated as support. As a consequence, I may declare some weapons expensive or expressly support weapons only. Discuss this change in the main thread, and protest changes to your weapons in your respective threads. I'm still mulling over what exactly I'm going to change.

Didn't we get the pilot? Can't we scan his brain?
If we did, +1, but I think they either got scrambled by the tractor beam or got blown out into space.
This is a normal discussion, folks.

PTW

I'm basically watching both threads and eating popcorn while both sides try to figure out what the other side is doing.

So the food of choice for spectators is corn. Makes sense, they have ears after all.

Cornbread is superior to wheat bread and rice bread anyway.  ;D

A minor request: Can both sides elaborate a bit on their flag? Like what represents what or so.
