| What is New Hyperion? New Hyperion (NH) is a region of NationStates. It is an empire built on the principles of Hyperionism, our guiding philosophy. Great! How do I sign up? Hold on there, buddy, you haven't even registered yet! You'll have to scroll up (or just click here) and take care of that first. After that, take a look at those four forums at the top of the list. The Low Orbit Welcome Wagon is where you can apply for Plebeianship and introduce yourself. You can undergo Patricianship if you're interested in leadership. For everything else, go to Imperial Service. What if I'm a diplomat? Go to the Immigration Desk instead, and we'll get you masked. What's the government situation look like? Our region has three main levels of command: the Imperial Council, the Inquisition, and the Hyperion Senate. The Imperial Council (IC) consists of the Autarch, Chancellor, Lord Inquisitor, High Lords, and military command. It assembles when sensitive or secret decisions need to be made. Its members otherwise act separately as department heads and administrators. The Inquisition is the law enforcement of the region. Inquisitors ensure that all members are complying with any requirements currently set in place, and, along with the Lord of Development, also controls admission into the Patrician caste. The Judiciary, our courts system, also exists as part of the Inquisition. The Hyperion Senate consists of all our Patricians, and is the primary body of law and policy. The Senate operates somewhere between a democracy and a mob, and doesn't necessarily need hard votes to get things done. While the IC is technically superior to the Senate, it is more common for the Councillors to participate as Senators. As such, the Hyperion Senate tends to be the most important part of the entire government. Is that it? Of course not, that would be dry and boring. Granted, the Hyperion Senate is about as boring as a discussion on abortion, but you probably don't want to deal with its squabbles and silliness 24/7. That's why we have the Imperial Service and the military. The Imperial Service consists of the various departments, such as Foreign Affairs and Recruitment. All departments are volunteer-only, though enlistment and training in the Hyperian Guard is highly recommended for all members. In general, however, you will be encouraged to join under-staffed departments. Oh yeah, didn't your recruitment telegram mention an RP? Why yes it did! While we allow other RPs, of course, our main RP is the one that sets the standard of our theme and culture. It's kind of complex and involved, but once you get the ball rolling it's about as smooth sailing as any other RP. What if I need help? Pop us a question. Our patience is legendary. You may also check the Great Library of Trantor for answers to some of the more common questions. |

Okay, so there's a new RP. My first question is... how the fuck does this actually work? |

Good point Laurentus. But then again, your provocation of the nation with your hacking is something Ramos does know about. So he does have a bit of a reason to shoot down your planes. But, your reasoning is sound. |

Trust me, the rain forest is coming.
Laurentus, even with higher scientific advancement, I think it'd be pretty dificult for an aircraft to outrun a SAM. Edited by Colberius X, Feb 8 2015, 08:04 PM.

Remember that we've got to actually give me some sort of advantage for my higher SA score. Either maneuverability or speed. One thing we should keep in mind is that this isn't reality, so i don't know how well SAM missiles would fit into our decision to use WH40K tech. |

Defender upon the Wall

The Interceptor -- Class I, II and III The Interceptor is a staple in the Miricano Armed Forces. Its medium range capabilities and versatility make it an all year round type of weapon. Conventionally launched from a missile silo on land or sea, this missile can be launched from a mobile missile command center. When attached with a multiple stage equipment, the rocket can break up into several smaller, less potent rockets to hit multiple targets or be equipped and used as a tactical nuke, in order to rout enemies. Length: 16 feet Diameter: 15 inches Weight: 3,300 lbs Warhead: Anti-aircraft explosive (1500 lbs of explosive), Multi-stage ballistic explosive (Class II) (4 missiles -- 375 lbs each), Nuclear Warhead with 100 kT capacity (Class III) Speed: With a regular warhead (650 mph), With a multi-stage warhead (550 mph per warhead), with a nuclear warhead (600 mph) Targeting and Guidance system: Heat signatures along with live satellite guidance from missile control |

Hmm... I was only going to write that first message, and it just grew from there. Interesting. For reference, the encrypt/decrypt shown is only a small part of the security measures placed on these messages and is not a full representation of the security placed on these communications. |

I covered three areas with my post. I thought a little news from my homeland would make things more interesting. |

I have a few questions. First, what is the correct way to address the Reichskanzler, Emperor Laurentus, and Jarl? Second, is the Emperor Laurentus dead or is it only the Interim-Emperor who is? If he is alive, where is he? |

By people not of equivalent rank (i.e. the Imperial Family) technically that would be "My Lord Chancellor" (as opposed to the Lord Chancellor who would just be referred to as "Lord Chancellor") or simply My Lord. If you just refer to him as "Falkenwalde" or something else it will be noticed. Not necessarily acted upon in some violent way as he's not a child, but it may have repercussions of varying levels of amusing. |
