No way! How come I never thought of that? Driving a tank on top of a gold crate, that's genius. Though, considering my luck I'm wondering how long that would last; seriously, it's like I'm a magnet for grenades, hundreds and hundreds of grenades! There anything to fly in that game? I hadn't noticed any usable aircraft. |

I hadn't noticed any usable aircraft. Yep. To date I've seen at least four aircraft: the AH-64D Longbow Apache, the Mil Mi-28 Havoc, the Kamov Ka-52 Alligator, and . . . Well, I'll let Preston explain it. ". . . So there we were. Flying out of Sadaristan in a pimped-out Russian Hind with a megalomaniac and a collection of bad CDs . . ." |

Try blowing into one. It makes a cool loud noise. Oh, I've done that before. Though I really don't think that's an instrument. Nonsense! Anything can be used to make music! I mean an instrument that would be used in a orchestra . . . Anywho. You know, I'm a little bit surprised no-one has asked me what Typuran means . . . |

At last.  Just kidding. ;D Uh, OK, Typuran . . . Well, Typuran is a adjective to describe someone or something whose origins lie on the planet Typura. Which is a planet that I made for my Nexus Wars series of stories. Basically, it's my ideal place to live, didn't used to be that, but it's grown on me. It is the third planet in it's system of the same name, slightly larger then Earth, has a cool climate that peaks around 75 degrees at the equator, two moons, five continents that feature mountains prominent, and several large fresh water oceans that cover approximately 70% of the planet's surface. Non-arthropodic wildlife consists mainly of various kinds of warm blooded dragons - commonly known as dinosaurs - ranging is size from the colossal ocean predators known as Leviathans ( Liopleurodon Anthea), to the ever so annoying Fenix ( Compsognathus Vulpus), to the ever dependable Feuer-Pferd ( Parasaurolophus Napalmi). Less prominent types of animals consist of thousands kinds of amphibians and mammals, the most prominent being the Aquadog (Essentially a large warm-blooded salamander, preferred as pets throughout the USNA), the Typuran Wolf (Very intelligent canine whose form is dominated by two colored stripes that run from the tip of it's snout to the end of it's tail), and the Smith's Dolphin (The USNA national animal, alongside the lamb). However, while all these things are intriguing and interesting, what really peaks in interest in the planet is the culture and it's influence. They are the most influential state in the United States of Neo America (So named because of the galaxy in which it was founded), mostly due to their leading role in the founding of the USNA, and their culture is one of protection and morality, the most prominent part of which is the abundance of firearms in the society. Typuran children often are able to build, strip, clean, and fire a M-16 by their tenth birthday, three of the largest weapons manufacturers in the USNA are headquartered on the planet, the planet has the highest military enlistment rate of any state in the union, the USAF central command - located in a building simply called 'The Octagon' - is based in the national capital of New Berlin on the Northren continent of Eusien, Typurans (And Neo Americans in general for that matter) have a ultra-hyper-defensive nature about children (Partly stemming from the USNA having one of the lowest birthrates in the multiverse), and the system where Typura is located has the highest rate of spacial defense stations - big freaken' space guns - per capita of anywhere in the multiverse (Though that might stem from the NA capital being located in-system). It is also worth noting that the population in-system is: 59% zoomorphic, 41% anthromorphic (All human); 1% Earth-based political parties, 99% NA Traditionalist; 99% Christian, 1% other. Also, the total Typuran population, including all colonies and space-based living quarters, as of 2006 is . . . 28.6 trillion!  Ohhhh . . . *Thud* There, that enough intel for ya'll? I can provide more if you want. |

Whoa, a lot of info Very thorough, though. Thanks, but this is really only a fraction of what I got swimming around my head. I haven't even touched public opinion polls or the concepts of Neo American interstellar travel. I'd like to though.  And trillion? That is beaucoup des personnes! Well, that's only really a fraction of the total NA population of 300 trillion. Of course, that number did drop significantly by the time the 1500 year anniversary of the founding of the USNA rolled around in 2013. |
