slander would be saying the government actually did something it didint do and the government having evidence to the contrary

the media didint do that, all they did was say in their opinion what the government was doing violated what the government should do

An intergalactic mega corp is basically a nation unto themselves

Treat them as a foreign nation, not as a business

i think they are entitled but they arnt slanderous

if they said the govenrment threatened them with more than a cease and dissist and it wasent true then that would count

Just level a massive fine against them with the stated intent to distribute it to the families of the soldiers

Point to the laws they broke and say that if they cannot abide by the rules their operating permits will be revoked

That's the general process, Blackhawk- if they refuse to pay the fine we're shutting them down

yeah its more useful to be a hardass than play their game, if you come at them with the "you told teacher on me" arguement its not going to work out well for you, and if the dm simply thinks your wrong and has control over the entire universe and will punish you nomatter what you do so coming down on them fairly leads them turning the universe against you even though that should be a stupid event for anyone in the universe to do that for then your dm is a dick or ignorent or both

Speaking as a DM theres nothing worse than being questioned and I have no idea how mature whoever is running this game

Id guess they're in highschool

its john cena

Its not a dick move so much as it is a punishment tactic

Nothing pisses people off more than one player wasting time by arguing with the DM

it can be a dick move

agreed

Im also guessing that this hypothetical mega corp has a very large security force

stupid and evil sit shoulder to shoulder on the bus

Be prepared for something dumb to happen as you shut them down

I think what's going to happen is the DM is gonna have their security kill a bunch of my men, then there'll be a slanderous news broadcast about me to other nations

So I'm just launching my own broadcast

@Paladin308 I know there is a republican movement in Australia to break away from the Crown is there anything like that in Canada?

Not as such, at least not to a significant degree

The Crown is largely seen as symbolic, with no real power

Governor General just acts a tourist atraction?

Basically

They rubber stamp everything passed by the government

If they ever chose not to it would probably lead to Canada renouncing ties to the crown

There are people who like having a figurehead like that, and people who don't, but most don't care enough to do anything about it

So the current state of affairs continues because tradition

If the UK collapsed into civil war, d o you think the Queen would visit canada?

Frankly I couldn't speculate

I could see civil conflict in the UK in the next few years

Doesn't seem any more likely than civil war in the U.S. IMO

yeah. I got belts ready

Civil war in the u.k will start most likely when the queen passes (peacefully)

I would suspect that Civil War (in the UK) in some form may be a risk when Brexit date comes and goes with no actual changes...

Civil war in the UK will only happen if the leaders bow to the French.

no
