Bill: Realistic Military Policy

Details

Submitted by[?]: Rationalist Party

Status[?]: defeated

Votes: This is an ordinary bill. It requires more yes votes than no votes. This bill will not pass any sooner than the deadline.

Voting deadline: September 2112

Description[?]:

Due to the unreliable nature of biological and chemical ordinances we see no reason to continue stockpiling them. We support continued research in these areas for defensive purposes, and will not currently reduce nuclear arsenals which could be used as deterrence.

MessageNo.

This just grants us the power to build them in the first place, as of now technically we have none.

So do not use words like stockpilng unless you can show numbers that Telamon has started bulding them.

Do not worry about numbers, as Defense Minister that is my worry, on how much we need and their maintenance.

MessageThat's not my arguement with them, what I said was they are basically useless on the battlefield and (in the case of biological) unworkable strategically

MessageThey are deterrents if anything. Technically it is a clean way to kill all people in a military base, while the base is active, as to capture it. So there's a strategy right there.

As said, they are useful, and although they might be used a last resort, a last resort is the last thing you have, when losing a war to facists who want to occupy our glorious nation.

MessageClearly you overestimate the effectiveness of these ordinences. No chemical weapon could kill an entire military base without destroying the usefulness of the land and no biological weapon is 100% effective, nor are they predictable. They are entirely useless as deterrent as they are unable to kill off large numbers of people without significant risk to Telamon. They are expensive to maintain should we decide to stockpile them and difficult to deploy.

MessageClearly you do not understand how retaliation works.

Regardless of what you think, i shall decide how many of what kind of WMD's we have. And suggest to the HoS and HoG, whoever they are at the time, when i think they be deployed.

Random fact: "OOC", "IC" and "IG" are commonly-used acronyms in Particracy. "OOC" refers to comments, discussions and actions which are out-of-character, meaning they are done player-to-player rather than party-to-party. "IC" refers to in-character interactions (ie. party-to-party). Similarly, "IG" means in-game, although this term may also simply refer to what happens in the actual game interface, as opposed to on the forum or elsewhere. "RP" just means "role-play".
