View Full Version : New home for the org? Another island for sale
http://www.dailymail.co.uk/pages/live/articles/news/news.html?in_article_id=468609&in_page_id=1770
Another of those fortress islands for sale, I think this one looks even better than the last one, only problem is, it's not it's own state yet and we will have to declare one, which is why this belongs to the Backroom I think. :2thumbsup:
an island paradise really isn´t the same thing if you don´t have coconut trees so that the naked indigenous babes can frolic under them...
seem like a nice pad nonetheless......does it come with broadband internet connection?...seems like a cool place to spend the winter....:book:
I remember the old thread!
The .Org nation should celebrate the national day playing M2TW in LAN all the day!
All we need is 4 million euros. I'm currently taking donations. ~;)

I think Tosa Inu should pay.
Private fortress islands are so 2006. Please, try to keep up. Now it's all about four-story luxury submarines.
We can place our orders here (http://www.ussubs.com/). I think the Phoenix 1000 (http://www.ussubs.com/submarines/phoenix_1000.php3) would hold all of the regular Orgahs in style ...

Hmm, still lacks nukes. Being a mobile, nuclear nation would be awesome.

And then the org could demand a seat on the UN security council :yes:
The submarine comes at 78.000.000 $. We have +/- 20.000 members.
That'll be 3.900 $ each... Seems reasonable.
Got a cheaper one for ya, old russian sub only 15.000 euro, now that is a great deal. It's orange though.

Is it capable of firing nukes?
In that article, the interior of his establishment looks too... cheery and neat, as if it's nothing special.
In any case, an Org private island would be splendid.
* submarines to patrol the area
* tactical nuclear-capable submarines to launch sneak attacks on lands
* a new version of Metal Gear constructed by kidnapped military scientists -- with it we can launch atom bombs anywhere on the world
* the island fortress will have large built-in protected howitzer cannons to defend against sea attacks
* high-tech choppers to control the skies
* we will have spies to steal information from every other nation, military information, economical, etc., especially including the theft of military weapons/technology
* we will enforce an open WWIII (or is it IV?) by launching nukes on America and blaming the East
* we will provide monetary and military resources to third-world countries, including their own nuclear weapons
* we will control them all by having them fight each other, and while this occurs we keep the power in balance so that their war will never end and we will profit maximally
* etc.

Ahh, the Org. If it only had this power :saint:
I see a certain problem with the end of your plan, it's no use to profit from a big war if the whole world including all shops is destroyed in that big war. Also to go shopping would be rather dangerous, not to mention the fallout.

Possibly. Of course by then our scientists will have developed rapid increase of artificial evolution to render humans immune to nuclear influence. We will then sell this technology. Only a few parts of the world would be struck by atom bombs anyway... no big deal :saint: Enough people alive. And there is always conventional warfare which we would have to constantly feed and manipulate. Improvise, constant war, constant profit.
Ah, I would make a good arms manufacturer :saint: That's where the money's at.
Hey I live by the Solent! Those islands are a bit weatherbeaten, but are quite fascinating.
In addition to submarines, we're going to need unmanned robot combat drones (http://gizmodo.com/gadgets/video/armored-rc-military-robotic-vehicle-defends-soldiers-fires-rockets-kills-baddies-279830.php) to patrol our island fastness ...
... but really, why do I think that an island utopia founded by Orgahs would wind up looking like Bioshock?

Not really sure something like that would be useful for island defense. Since this is my "expertise", I would suggest these instead: MQ-9 Reapers (http://www.networkworld.com/community/?q=node/17560) :smug:

Under water luxury subs? Private island bases? I go away for a week and the org comes over all Thunderbirds.....
Can I point out a fundamental problem with buying this island, which is you would have to do all your shopping in Portsmouth. Which is a hole.
Hey, as a local I resent that remark! While the city as a whole is indeed a hole (haha, so you see what I did?) the new Gun Wharf development is quite nice. All we need to do now is knock down the rest of Pompey and rebuild it. Preferably with adequate road access this time. Honestly, if only the Luftwaffe had done it's job properly....

Aha! I now have definitive proof that EA is in fact, Boris Johnson. Not only does he hide a keen conservative political mind behind buffoonery and wit, but he publicly restates his contempt for Pompey.
Away for a week Boris? Launching that campaign go well, did it? :wink:

You should never have knocked the Tricorn down, mate, that was world class awful, now Pompey's just bad.

Bah, we take some of the new North Korean technology (http://www.theonion.com/content/node/27590) for defensive purposes.
So what ends up as "Adam"? I would say that it would be impressive for the Org to even get a Rapture to rupture ~;)

Teleportation is splendid. General space technology is also to be researched. When Earth has fallen before the Org, other planets are to fall as well beneath the crushing boot of conquest. Warp technology must be achieved and its utilization must aid in bringing forth victory as sweet and refreshing as a pear's nectar whereof the Org shall drink to rejoice.
Let us not forget the creation of giant spider robots armed with high-energy rapid-firing lasers on every leg and a giant impenetrable shield for protection. These mechanical creatures will have advanced artificial intelligence.

We need...Stealth Tanks...
And, where exactly would these tanks go on this island? I guess they could rotate their turrets.
I can't believe no one has suggested octosquids for island defenses - at least until they take over the world, which most of us would welcome anyway.

It's just to show our military might. Though nukes would work much better.

Fine. FINE. No stealth tanks. No spider robots. You guys are a bunch of downers.
Can we at least agree that we'll get around in our personal hovercrafts (http://gizmodo.com/gadgets/the-future-is-now/moller-m200g-hover+car-in-production-and-selling-for-125k-280546.php)?

Those can betray us.
A splendid idea eluded me but now has fortuitously arrived: the creation and training of deadly sharks armed with (underwater) lasers on their heads controlled by their advanced scientifically artificially influenced intelligence and heightened natural detection systems. They will function as militaries would, adjoined in units, with their respective shark commanders who are to be armed with rapid-fire lasers instead of the standard quick single-shot ones.
An array of lawyers is also required. They will have to be evil lawyers. Hmmm, but when one says evil lawyers one errs, for the word evil then serves redundancy :saint:

Laser armed sharks will provoke the attention of the octosquids. You don't want that. (For this reason I personally will be accessing our island via one man airship http://www.personalblimp.com/ rather than hovercraft, which are within a tentacle's reach of the water).
However, I endorse the second part of your plan.
Lemur, could you explain how come a man who can afford a $125,000 personal hovercraft is wearing a tank top knitted by his granny? Or has he also invented time travel, and just arrived from 1974?
However, I endorse the second part of your plan.
It comes as no surprise.
Another idea: there should be someone who suffers from the alien hand syndrome. It just has something... evil and sinister about it (and humorous too might I add).

Hehe, I saw this and can't help but quote Austin Powers in this instance.

Why don't we buy the island, then levy a tax on all marine traffic.
A couple euros here, couple euros there, we could see some serious revenue.
Then we can move onto the subs.
And hovercraft
and ultra-cool black ninja outfits.
Okay, we could buy a pirate ship too.

Great, you can be our minister of economy when the coup sets me up as high commander of Org Island (the regime will be enlightened despotism of course). I'll even buy you the black body suit, eyepatch and parrot for you to command the ninja pirate crew.
But since when do we need all that GI Joe garbage (I distinctly remember an armoured vehicle called the warthog and a a one-man hoovercraft)? We should just cloak our island so to never be attacked in the first place. Maybe even create a second Bermuda triangle of the coast of England (you know ships and planes dissapearing).

You mean that we'll have an entire island filled with people that've conquered the world multiple times over and not even letting them running amok with weapon development? Not to mention the impossibillity of a proper war as we're unseen.
Although if this Bermuda triangle is used to get raw material to new equipment for later use, I do like your thinking :2thumbsup:

I don't know if we're the best placed to develop weapons. I think that shieldwalls and trebuchets are already outdated. But a war would be very proper if we put our ninja pirate crew to good use, people just wouldn't know who they are at war with.
Although if this Bermuda triangle is used to get raw material to new equipment for later use, I do like your thinking :2thumbsup:
Raw materials like goods, booze and human compagnions (be it male or female according to our liking)
