Building a Museum

[Vedran]

Probably the Staatspresident. He was reported killed in the nuclear blast that destroyed Pretoria, but they Never Found the Body, so a guy can hope.

[Shadowsage]

Anything from the defunct HAE.

[Lynneth]

There's probbaly a lot of communist memorabilia from Canada, if you might remember. ComIntern and all that.
As for persons, perhaps Fjodor Leclerc, who lead Canada for a good while, and the ComIntern at the height of its power? lol
He also was a scientist, plenty of science getting done under him.

Something related to the space elevator would be nice. . .

No catgirls, those were euthanised before I rerolled.
For anything else, there's bound to be some stuff in my news threads from back then. I don't remember anything right now, though.

Anything I can think of (that includes the sentry and old Portuguese weapons) you can have.
[/quote][quote name='Markus Wilding' timestamp='1276015938' post='2328927']With the war over, Tanya begins work on a new Sentry gun design, seeing as the older version failed miserably in the field. This design would be named the Sentry TG3A, TG3 for the combination of Disparu's target systems. This version would have more rounds, a different caliber and rockets designed to take out both advancing trucks and light aircraft. Of course, with these new features come new problems. For one, the overall armor of the TG3A needs to be increased, but doing so with slow the gun down and even adversely affect performance. With the .30 caliber round obviously not powerful enough to do any sort of damage, requests have been made to manufacture .408 and possibly even .50 caliber rounds for use in the Sentry. Incendiary ammo would most likely be used in the Sentry as well. The rockets may also be inaccurate, due to their length and the short "tube" they fly out from. A design of the Sentry TG3A is shown below.

How about any memorabilia from the Dragon Cult, from its defunct temple in Bangalore? The cult is long since destroyed, but I could cook up some remnants,

Don't worry, I'll come up with something else.
Maybe a powered down and derelict Artificial Intelligence or hull of a prototype super fighting robot?
While I can’t fit the entire space elevator in a museum how about stuff from the groundbreaking Canadian space program?

– with Maelstrom nothing can surprise me anymore.

Once the museum has everything from the Dragon temple in Bangalore I’m worried that it will unintentionally be a holey site for fringe cultists. . . not that will stop me.

Still, I suppose I’ll have to add a Botha exhibit.

No, no nuclear materials or weaponry of any sorts which have all been destroyed anyway. I would however send over "Users Manuals" describing some of the crazy techs like the Se Crawler since I am unsure whether or not its real existence has ever been permitted in CNRP.

Sea Crawlers. Those were delightfully controversial.
Like lots of technology that is discarded with various rulings they once existed, but aren’t practically functional these days, that’s why CNRP is full of ‘lost’ technologies.
That said, I wouldn’t mind having a Sea Crawler on display.

Most of those 'catgirls' were just humans with cat ears :V
It's like taxidermy on a normal person. =P

Anyways. I only ever had one AI, and that was in the GDR... Though I suppose you might find the first attempts at this stuff, even if I have no idea what such a prototype AI would be like.
Space programm, there's probably those old shuttles and all still somewhere, either in Canada or Rebel Army (whom I gave much of my space stuff via treaty due to reroll).

I'm sure I could rustle up some old possessions of Tom Dobbs, Sir Michael Harland, and Louis Egon. I could even find the pink ribbon that Sarah Tintagyl tied around Louis Egon's neck after killing him.

A vague description would be something like, “The [i]Procinctia National Museum[/i] will host personal possessions of Tom Dobbs, Sir Michael Harland, and Louis Egon. . .”
If you want to write descriptions of anything feel free to post it here and I’ll add it in.

If your old space stuff is in Rebel Army I’ll have to ask Rebel Army.
Something related to the space elevator would be awesome, what sort of vehicles were used to build it?
What about the Singapore/GDR/Sri-Lanka spacecraft? Anything particularly noteworthy?

There's a museum in the defunct Great Lakes States' abandoned capital, New City (located on the RL location of St Ignace), containing some of their military's equipments that were used in their civil wars. I'm pretty sure the artifacts are at least 50 years old according to the 1 RL month=1 RP year.

And when I mean "abandoned", it's been used by Midwest Republic Air Force as a practice live bombing site. That includes the museum. And no, the Midwest Republic's government won't stop it because it's cheaper to bomb a ruin than to build a new bombing site.


There's also Great Lakes Provinces' military stuff, surprisingly some of them are still intact as most of them were destroyed. The problem is that they're sitting on the bottom of the Great Lakes.

As for the AI, it'd basically be rows upon rows of stupidly powerful computers, cooled by liquid helium for maximum efficiency. If I remember right, the room in which you could talk with Lynneth (who was the person turned AI) was around 20 degrees celsius below zero. That temperature was what lead to Fjodor Leclerc's death when he sat down with Lynneth [url="http://forums.cybernations.net/index.php?showtopic=62364&view=findpost&p=2360314"]for a last chat.[/url]

You should totally get one of the Tupolev Tu-160s the Xinyan military used to napalm-bomb the city of Bouake and the crowds of refugees who attempted to escape back during the war with the Ottoman republic.

Good times.

Is there anything you might want donate that would counterbalance opinions of people visiting the museum about your former country?

As an exhibit the AI would be a room (or warehouse) full of rows upon rows of stupidly powerful computers, with the deterioration from years of disuse, all completely unpowered, at room temperature without liquid helium. Everything would be set up as it was, yet with nothing anywhere near functional. . . but that’s kind of dry.
How can I make an exhibit that capture the [u]real[/u] significance of it?
