Got spare money?

Um, Squebles, you're allowed 3 total spots. With Al Mastif and Archie Cap, you can only have one more (in fact, if you're claiming 190, you actually can't expand at all).

None of this, of course, prevents you from trying to block Auldoninna's expansion.

For roleplay, yes. You can roleplay sending your troops there or whatever. But you don't actually get possession of it (ie, nothing shows up on the map)

IIRC, his idea was to send troops to take the area over and stomp on the local inhabitants, rather than just claiming an area and saying it was part of Al Mastif and always had been.

Bah, it made sense in my head, anyway.

as time rolls by the new Arabian state is producing much oil and the Auldonina citizens ar eflocking to the paradise that they are making of the area.

Large citys are springing up almost overnight as the oil riches pay for mass construction. Contracts are being let worls wide as their insufficnet labour available to complete all the projects. Any nation itnerested in bidding for a construction contract please contact the new Engineering Minister for the State Peter Bell. He will process the tenders as quick as he is able.

Current plans are in place for a mass airlift to bring not only more construction material but also other luxury items.

The State is going to hold a celebration next month, inviting all the heads of the worlds governemnts to partake as they celebrate the new found nation.

Irrigation is the next key item to be completed so that the desert interior can match the lush coastline. Once this is done, construction of new large inland citys can commence.

Completion of the highway system linking us to our neighbours is almost complete too. This will allow our friendly neighbours to work in our state but retunr to their homelands much easier.

Border patrols are of course increasing and whilst a few radicals have been found carrying illegal arms, most of the time the border patrol are jsut their to wave through the friendly people.

The Rogue Nation of Boondi would like to discuss the possibility of a trade agreement with the Auldonian Oil Companies.

In exchange for crude oil and perhaps the possibility of future development in the region, Boondi offers Naval escorts to Auldonian ships from the Ceroo Sea to the Oil States.

What Arabian state, Raspie?
I've still got quite a few troops stationed there, and you'd have major problems setting up any sort of puppet state there without having the sh!t blown out of you by troops superior in training, equipment, supplies and numbers.
Besides, you stated earlier that you retreated, and I'm not about to let you take that one back.

You have no need for concern, Boondi.
If Auldonnina's oil supply is halted, Al Mastif will gladly fill the void.
