Maybe make guns cheaper? Or you could deport all the non-owners to New Yorkaliforniachusetts.

Cultural Officer Betmet has informed us that Fort Triumph is hosting an event the likes of which has never been seen on NS.

The Forces of Mordor and the Forces of Triumph will do battle to gain control over Fort Triumph. The Alliance has chosen to side with Triumph. We suggest you do the same!

This is a three-phase event of epic proportions. The event include aspects of dice rolling, spamming, roleplay and gameplay. Join the forum (http://forttriumph.proboards.com/) and the Discord server (https://discordapp.com/invite/v6quvum) to participate.

The Battle of Fort Triumph!

by Benevolent thomas

Its just another peaceful day in Fort Triumph. Thomas, sweeping the entrance of The Globalist, waves to Dead West who is on their way to work. Dead West then swerves round a visibly drunk Shizensky as he, with the help of Deadeye Jack, stumbles outside of Straight-Shooters Saloon. Just then, the sound of thunder echos in the distance. The Marshals rush to raise the alarm as any amount of rain poses a great risk to the town. As the thunder rumbles closer and closer to the town, everyone is off the streets and accounted for, with one noticeable exception. No one has seen a trace of Sauron. The Dead West volunteers to search for the town's wealthiest benefactor, while Thomas and Jack gather the town's resources. Shizensky attempt to calm the public, but his inebriated state is doing little to soothe the worries of some.

Just as soon as it started, the thundering stopped. The Dead West looks up to the sky and realizes that there were no clouds. He reaches the outskirts of town and notices a standing army of thousands of monstrous beasts in the distance. As he passes the outer walls of the fort, the town falls under a sinister red glow. Mystified by the sight, Thomas and Jack head to the walls. Shizensky is overrun and the townspeople fill the streets. "I see you" a voice hisses from above. One can feel the heat rising in the desert. A horn sounds, the legions of darkness charge toward the Fort. The Dead West points his pistol towards the sky and fires. The sound echos off the hills and the rushing army halts. It was at this time Thomas and Jack reach The Dead West's position. A few of the creatures take a step backward, but are met with another sounding of the horn. The Forces of Mordor descend upon the town.

The battle of Fort Triumph begins!

Welcome, everyone, to the latest campaign brought on by the curious minds of the Event Planning Committee! This story will see the Forces of Triumph, led by Shizensky , face off against the invading Forces of Mordor, led by Evil Lord Sauron. The event will take place in four stages. The first stage starts now and the rest will take place during the event itself.

Recruiting
From now until the start of the event, the respective sides are expected to recruit in order to bolster their forces. Those who plan to participate in this event must declare which side they will be representing either in Linkthis thread, by contacting the Marshals on our Discord Server (torture us with pings or DMs please) or by sending a telegram to Benevolent thomas on NationStates. Participants should make this decision carefully, as the punishment for defection on both sides is death. Sauron and Shizensky, as the heads of their respective forces, should spearhead these efforts. Players from within and outside of Fort Triumph are welcome to participate. The size of your force is only limited to how many people you can bring along for the ride. The amount of players you recruit prior to the start of the event lead to advantages during the event itself.

The Marshals (BT, Jack and TDW) will be conscripted to the Forces of Triumph. All other forum staff is up for grabs.

The Event
The event will combine elements of dice rolling, spamming, roleplay and gameplay (NSGP). These elements will be separated into three stages known as "Flashpoints". Each phase will begin with dice rolls. I will be rolling three dice for each side. One of these dice will be known as the "event die" (its green in color, so the die itself never changes). Each side takes turns rolling the dice. The accumulative number reached by the dice, including any bonuses, must reach a minimum of eleven. If this threshold has been reached, the number represented on the "event die" will be added to that team's "score" for that phase. The score each side needs to win a phase is twenty. Once a side is within five points of reaching the threshold of twenty, a Flashpoint will be triggered. The winner of each Flashpoint will have 5 points added to their score. If neither side has reached twenty points following the Flashpoint, the phase will be concluded in the same way it started, via dice rolls.

First Phase
The First Phase of the Battle will be a skirmish along the walls of the Fort. Shizensky will receive a +1 bonus in dice rolls for having the Marshals (an elite unit) for this battle. Sauron will have a +2 advantage for having the greater number of NPC forces.

First Flashpoint
A series of segregated Monster Hunter threads. Whichever side can fell the most foes in the time frame wins.
For those unfamiliar with Monster Hunter, its a game played in threads on our forum in which you post in order to attack and hopefully kill monsters that can attack you in return.

Second Phase
The Second Phase of the Battle will be the Main Engagement. Depending on which side won phase one, the battle will either be taking place within the Fort or outside of it. The winner receiving a +2 advantage in dice rolls. For this phase, Shizensky loses the Marshal Bonus, but Sauron forces advantage increases to +3.

Second Flashpoint
The two sides will roleplay on the RMB for a period of time. We will lay out some ground rules like no double-posting or spamming. These efforts will be scored via each side's total word count multiplied by the amount of unique users posting. Each unique player will add 0.1 to the multiplier that starts at 1. Double-posts or other spam will lose its team 25 words. Players will mark the top of their posts with their faction name. Attempts to game this system will lead to the death of the offender and their multiplying effect as well as their word count.

Third Phase
The Third Phase of the Battle is the final moves. If Shizensky wins phase two, Sauron's forces advantage shrinks to just +1. If Suaron won phase two, his forces advantage will be +2. If reinforcements came in during the battle (people who joined the event after its start), their numbers will be factored into their leader's advantage at this point. Shizensky regains the Marshals advantage +1.

Third Flashpoint
A representative of each side will join the WA (preferably Sauron and Shiz themselves, but they can choose others). Each side will attempt to seize the delegacy of Fort Triumph for themselves. Whoever holds the seat at the end of the allotted time will win the Flashpoint.

Hey is Siguruis still here

The latest Force Flyer is out!

Headlines:

A New Constitution has been announced, Sword BJ has been given Dot Citizenship, three Cabinet members have resigned, the population decline has finally ended and growth has come back, Salibaic has been elected Prime Minister of Heart, and efforts are being made to grow RGBN's population.

A New Constitution for Force
Following nearly 8 months of work, a new Constitution has been implemented. This Constitution introduces the House of Representatives, rights of citizenship, classifications of law, the position of judge, shortened elections with fixed dates, and appropriate punishments for different crimes. Each region of Force shall elect one representative to the House for every 5 WA members it has. These representatives shall form the House of Representatives who are given the power to pass any new law (as long as it doesn't go against the Constitution) as well as remove any old law (laws originally passed by the House only). The creation of this House removes The Assembly which was only able to amend the Constitution and was made up of all citizens. Citizens now have the power to remove a representative by a simple majority vote; ensuring that representatives act in the best interests of the citizens. The rights of citizenship are also an important part of the new Constitution. Citizens who previously held no legal rights now hold these rights, preventing the government from stopping a fair trial, free protest, running in an election, publishing through an independent media outlet, or holding and expressing one's political views. Now, onto the next change. The judge is now responsible for handing out punishments on the advice of the jury while the prosecutor has the power to choose whether or not to pursue a case. This is a major change because it means that the Court's power is no longer concentrated in just one position. The addition of defined punishments for different crimes is also important because it means that the judge and jury can't arbritrarily hand out a punishment; they must only hand out an appropriate punishment for the crime. The shortening of elections is important because it means that more time can be spent on getting things done rather than focusing on elections. It's also true that people often vote only in the first few days of an election, so time that could be used working is instead used waiting for the results to be announced. The new Constitution of Force is a game-changer and will prove vital for the causes of democracy and prosperity in the region.
Sword BJ given Dot Citizenship
Following their resignation as Foreign Minister, Sword BJ was granted Dot Citizenship by the Founder, Renegalle. Dot Citizenship is the most prestigious award Force has to offer. Sword BJ was granted it for his extremely hard work, passion, and dedication to his office. What was seen from him is something that has never been seen in this office before; plans to change things actually being acted upon. Such passion and hardwork from a Minister has not been seen since Bieth resigned as Roleplay Minister almost a year ago. In Sword's tenure, he established embassies with The East Pacific and Wintreath among many others, convinced The North Pacific against building an embassy with the New Western Atlantic for its inaction against Bennisia, and remained omnipresent in the Cabinet, always willing to find solutions to problems, whether they related to his office or not. Sword will be missed as Minister of Foreign Affairs and his work for the office will not be forgotten.
Three Resignations: Ingloniania, Sword BJ, Lashnakia
This past month, the Force Government has been rocked by the resignations of some of its key members. On August 21, Minister of Roleplay Ingloniania resigned. Then on September 8, Minister of Foreign Affairs Sword BJ resigned. Just a day later on September 9, Deputy Prime Minister Lashnakia announced their resignation. In just 3 weeks, 3 Cabinet Members were gone. Why, some ask? We contacted them to find out.

Question Asked: Why did you resign?

Ingloniania: Well I resigned because I was getting really stressed because of the things I was expected of because I had a lot of other things that I had to do daily and I got really busy with other things such as friends, school, projects, etc.

Sword BJ: The real reason is I have no will to play NS anymore and the other reason is RL issues that prevented me from doing my tasks.

Lashnakia: As real life commitments and problems build up, I no longer feel able to serve Force to the best of my ability.

Population Decline Ends; Growth Comes Back
After months of slowly waning population in Force, new nations are finally coming again. Over the summer we went from 184 nations (in our capital region, Force) at the end of April to just 130 on September 19th. Luckily though, since September 19th, the capital has gained 25 nations; nearly a 17% increase. Summer in NationStates always is characterized by a drop in activity and the collapse of some regions, but Force has survived its second summer and is still going strong.
Rebooting RGBN
In our last edition, we discussed how we had taken over RGBN from its founder, Shenifar, to help to bring back activity and try to make it the large, friendly region it once was. Since then, Roleplay in the region has resumed and the population has almost doubled. Efforts are currently being made to re-establish law and a functioning government so that RGBN has a long future ahead of it.
Statistics
[156 nations; 29 WA nations] Force
[62 nations; 7 WA nations] Heart
[36 nations; 6 WA nations] The New Kingdom
[18 nations; 4 WA nations] RGBN

[272 nations; 46 WA nations] Total (excluding provinces)
