very hard nation states issue


argh so many choices can't choose

"Clearly the army requires the greatest increase in funds this year," says Field Marshal Larry Steele. "After all, wars were never won by air or sea and in this dangerous world we must be able to protect the interests of Pernica. Currently our men get hand-me-down weapons, rations I wouldn't feed a pig - the army is increasingly looking like a bad career option and we can't have that. If we're going to get recruits, we need more funding to support our brave lads in their duty."
[Accept]


"Hah! It's the Navy who needs the money, mate," says Grand Admiral Jean-Paul du Pont. "The army and the police forces can protect us domestically, but can they protect us from having our foreign trade cut off? Can they protect us from terrorists and pirates? How are the soldiers going to get to the enemy's borders? Swim? I think not. Fund us, the Navy, the true protectors of Pernica!"
[Accept]


"Despite the statements of my colleagues," says Jennifer Jong-Il, Marshal of the Air Force. "The Air Force requires more money than these men playing around with boats. We are increasingly seeing terrorists taking to the air, and more ships or guns are not going to stop that. Our people will only be safe when the Air Force has the power it needs to defend us - and for that we need more funding and more government support for industries geared towards the development of new aircraft."
[Accept]


"You're all thinking too small!" exclaims Aaron Dodinas, an avid Star Wars fan. "What we need is more research into the possibilities of space weapons! Big laser cannon and satellites with complete annihilation power! And cool spaceships! Boom! Rat-a-tata! Bang! Bang! It'll be expensive, sure, but think of the power! THE POWER!"
[Accept]


"It's simply not good enough!" wails Fleur Rifkin, the Minister of Defence. "It's not about the money - it's the manpower. Not enough people by far are signing up! All we seem to be getting nowadays are drunks and people who volunteered for a dare. The current conscription laws need to be either more strictly enforced or drastically rewritten. What I propose is a universal draft: everyone capable of pulling a trigger should become a part of the Army, Navy or Air Force. Only in this way can we ensure the dominance of Pernica in the region."
[Accept]


"The military is a stain on the peace-loving nature of our nation!" cries Violet Clinton, while sporting a Rastifarian hat. "People should be allowed to choose what they do for a living! Conscription is wrong and I don't see why our tax credits should go to such a despicable cause! The money should be going to more important places - like our pockets!"
[Accept]

Army. Army covers everything, you got anti-air guns, cannons/missles for sea attacks and tanks and infantry to kill ground. Navy can only fight sea and air and AF is best suited for air and sea tho they can take ground out its not as effective as having troops down there.

Got to go with air.

Focus on a fast strike capability that can cripple an enemy before they know what hit them.

Seriously, who the hell goes into space these days besides the Chinese and the United States? You'd have almost no competition up there.

Army, it mabey the airforce that kills all the tanks, or navy that sinks all the ships, but the only force that can occupy territory, is, and always has been, an Army....infantry if you dont understand what i mean.

I took army because its the backbone of the military. A good navy or airforce isn't helpful if you don't have a solid army.
