"Put to death? Is this really the type of person you want to listen to?" says Randy Han. "Every day I thank God that I'm an agnostic and don't need to believe this nonsense. Religion shouldn't have anything to do with our government. You should get rid of it immediately!"
and what exactly is being proposed here? either don't let the government interfere with religion, or get rid of religion altogether.
don't interfere with the government's business with religion
1. The method of entering the city's territory (as I already wrote, this can be done by sea, by air (also in different ways) (or something else) for individual squads. I could, of course, determine this myself, but then the blame for the shot-down helicopter/sunk yacht would lie with my choice, and that's not interesting.
2. And where, from where, and in what sequence these squads arrive.
Information Technology I. Free knowledge of the commercial method.II. Free technology of choice.[/COLOR] | Virtual Environment Immersion Creation of a system in which a person loses self-awareness of their physical body, and consciousness is placed in virtual reality. The spectrum of possible applications is unimaginably wide. | Neurocomputer Interface Creation of a system for exchanging information between the brain and a computer. Used in various moments of human life, ranging from "virtual reading" and combat interfaces to "artificial vision" systems and other achievements of this kind. | Artificial Intelligence Used for performing difficult calculations (analysis and planning), controlling machinery, as well as commercial, military, and medical (diagnostics and treatment) applications. | Commercial Method Research in the field of scientific studies aimed at profit has led to the emergence of things such as screenless displays, holography, etc. Used by workers of various professions, in everyday life, and also in the armed forces. |
Genetic Engineering I. Correction of genetic defects at the fetal development stage. Health: +3.II. Future generations of the nation's people are born at least attractive. Happiness: +2 | Agricultural Biotechnology Agricultural products become more resistant to cold, seasonal changes, insect pests, etc.; growth speed decreases, quality improves. Sector: Agriculture: +150% Health: +1 for every two units of S:A but no more than +3 per country. | Cloning Creation of an embryo and subsequent growth of humans from it. Capabilities: — Creation of people, a) according to a designed template (physical characteristics, consciousness, skills and abilities) in large quantities for performing specific work, military service, etc. b) exact copy of a single individual. — Growing organs for subsequent transplantation for medical or scientific purposes. — Regenerative medicine. Health: +3 | Anti-Aging Cure Having leading specialists in genetic engineering at their disposal and the necessary resources, project leaders can prevent the wear and tear of the human body (cells, bones, etc.), thus preventing aging (lost youth cannot be returned). Such an operation is extremely expensive and requires regular repetition (every 1-5 years depending on compatibility) to maintain the effect. | Additional 1. Artificial meat. In order to save natural resources, space, and also due to numerous requests from animal rights activists, scientific researchers have created a way to produce meat and other similar food products artificially. 2. Anabiosis. Project holders have access to a special system that allows suspending the life activity of any organism for an indefinite period (given a constant energy source). 3. Biological weapons; ability to change characteristics of a living organism. |
Pharmaceuticals I. Production +100%II. Effect +100% [/COLOR] | Boosters Recent achievements in medicine have allowed for stunning success in unlocking human potential and improving quality of life. These drugs improve brain activity, enhance physical capabilities, regulate the proper functioning of the body, and most importantly — lift the mood. Health: +2 Intelligence: +2 Happiness: +2 Bonuses during Competitive sports events | "Bad" Drugs Medical research of psychoactive substances in the sphere of entertainment, law enforcement, and armed forces. Individual for each player | Panacea A medicine capable of curing any disease, provided it does not require surgical intervention and is not a problem at the genetic level. Additionally, it removes all negative substances from the body, reduces the impact of radiation, smooths its effect, etc. | Additional 1. Miraculous extract. A medicine in the form of an ointment that restores external damage to the body (burns, cuts, etc.); treatment occurs relatively quickly, however, the downside is that the healing effect does not manifest on old wounds (two weeks or more). 2. Chemical weapons. |
Cybernetics I. Cost and production speed of robotics and implants -/+50%II. Implants and robotics are produced with better quality. Additionally +1 to all industry (robotics); automation bonuses increase further by 15% for industry and 25% for self-defense forces (given the presence of robotics and military robotics respectively).[/COLOR] | Implants Artificial replacement for lost limbs (prosthetics), teeth, replacement of organs of vision, hearing, etc. Increasing human capabilities through cybernetization. | Robotics Development and subsequent creation of automated machines for performing construction, industrial, commercial, and household tasks. +1 to all industry, production +50% — Requires artificial intelligence research | Military Robotics Development and subsequent creation of automated machines for performing military tasks. — Requires robotics research | Automation Transfers AI control over the transport system, city planning, national defense, etc. All industry +20% (+35% given robotics) Self-defense forces +10% (+50% given military robotics) — Requires artificial intelligence research. — Cannot be canceled at the player's will |
Atomic Energy I.II. Nuclear weapons cost -50%[/COLOR] | Nuclear Weapons Opens access to the construction of nuclear weapons. Contrary to common myth, in reality, not every country of Actea possesses a nuclear arsenal, only those who engaged in research and development in this direction. | |||
Orbital Technologies II. Orbital flights are faster and safer, space stations are stronger, ABM has increased efficiency, more powerful ion cannon. [/COLOR] | Orbital Flights A kind of replacement for traditional aviation; it is too early to dream of flights into deep space, but flights in the planet's orbit are gradually becoming commonplace. With the development of this technology, humanity began using orbital flights for delivering passengers (including on excursions), goods, and troops (military use). | Orbital ABM A more powerful analog of the traditional strategic anti-ballistic missile defense system. In addition to its usual tasks, it protects other spacecraft from the encroachments of ill-wishers or collisions with space debris. | Ion Cannon Orbital-based weapon (space station). Along with nuclear weapons, it is a weapon of mass destruction. + Has no countermeasures. + Pure energy does not harm the ecology. + Fast launch, high-precision targeting. + Minimization of civilian losses - Much smaller area damage. - Extremely high construction cost - Control center is located on the planet - Need for recharging | Next-Generation Surveillance System Opens access to the exact location of enemy troops on the map in case of military action. — Requires artificial intelligence research |
Advanced Warfare I. Production cost of military equipment -40%II. Improvement of all characteristics of military equipment.[/COLOR] | Laser Technologies Open access to the production of various modifications for existing types of military equipment (for example, the use of a laser anti-missile system can be very effective when installed on aircraft). The creation of non-handheld weapons aimed at destroying heavy enemy equipment is permissible. | Electromagnetic Pulse Technologies Weapons of this type disable computer systems and, as a result, are very effective against modern combat equipment, including robots. | Force Field Development of systems aimed at creating a barrier that eliminates (or reduces) damage inside the force field from external sources of damage. | |

The numbers are still symbolic, some descriptions are missing, and some cells are completely empty, but here is the essence:
Technologies will be purchased with NTP points on NS;
Production depends on the availability of necessary means;
Countries will be able to conduct joint scientific research to reduce research costs;
Each country can choose its specialties — primary and secondary. A secondary one reduces the research cost, say, by 25%, and opens the first feature. Accordingly, a primary one reduces the research cost by 50% and opens the second feature.
I am creating this thread to bring ideas into this project (new technologies and branches, changes to those I've already thought of, etc.) and discuss them — several heads are better than one.
Basically, I'm working on something right now and will probably post a preview tomorrow. The idea looks promising, but I think that with our combined efforts, it can become even better.
