I know you're all thinking we should put this off, but I think now is a perfect time to start. It's better to have something concrete set up now that we can just let newer members into later. I already have an idea for a few missions, mostly invasions on regions people I know in RL have founded. So nothing serious, but raiding is a bit easier that fending, so I think we should definitely start with that. Also, as a newer member of the Founderless Regions Alliance, I feel like I should at least try to draft some of you into that. I wouldn't go as far as to try and get the whole region involved, but we could certainly set up some sort of recruitment booth. Or just PM me and I'll supply you with a handful of links. ![]() If anybody would be interested in joining the military, just post here and I'll set up something unofficial until we can get our Dual Matriarchs Zdenka and Keita to agree to it. And if they decide to delete this post for being too presumptuous, I guess I'll just have to mass PM the entire forums...

1. Keita is still male and is therefore disqualified from being a Matriarch. (Also, how old do you think I am? )2. My thought on a regional military is basically "meh." Individual citizens can join whatever they like, but it seems like a bad idea to make a formal army and start attacking or defending other regions until we have a government and a foreign policy. I don't really approve of raiding anyway, but that's a personal preference. I'm not sure I have the right to say "no raiding ever" if that's what the region wants to do -- but anything which affects diplomatic relations should be authorized either by the founder (which I'm not going to do while the region is still small) or the duly elected government (which we don't have yet). If the elected government wants to have an army later on, okay. As founder, I have an important role to play in Barrayar's security, so I do think it's important that I be kept informed of anything that might lead to retaliatory raids. The WAD should be kept informed likewise. (Once we grow a little larger, I intend to return executive powers to the WAD.) Make sense? |

Don't found a military now. Barrayar is very vulnerable if someone like the Black Riders invaded here. A military would make us vulnerable in every way, as you'd have to grant power to the delegate to help get rid of hostiles. Then the invaders would get us. |

We can't really be invaded as long as our founder is here. |

Unfortunately that's not the case, Clever. I've seen regions invaded with active founders taken down by Black Ridets and Hawks. |

You can't take a region down if the founder is around. Its just impossible. Thats the end of this discussion. |

Kid, I have been on the internet longer than you have been alive. I have played Nation States long enough to know how raiding works. Yes we can be raided. Effect of raid. Some sore arses until the founder gets on, then the raiding party will wander off or rather, skulk off. |

Oh? Really, try living in a raided region. It's very simple. The delegate will eject the founder as soon as he has power. Then he ejects everyone else and password protects the region. And don't call me "kid". |

Nerod, that's a lie. I already know that you're 15. QLB, you said you were born in 1997 and that means you're 15. |
