Exile the Nobility
Our people have been shocked by the horrors of the mainland, and by the contemptible behavior of the so called nobility. However, we can not bring their crimes to a true account, and therefore the best and most politically expedient answer is to exile them. They shall go in peace, and never return.
|
| |
The Hardest Choice
The crimes committed against the people of the mainland states by the nobility placed over them by The Empire are incalculable. We can not therefore assign specific blame, and so we must come to the hardest decision anyone can make. We must forgive them, and allow them to go free. They shall never again hold power, but life on the bottom is still life.
|
| |
Reinstitute Asterionese Governance
Now that Kyanoia is back under the control of our people after so many years in the dark and our government's direction is decided, it's time to transition from military occupation of the mainland to normal governance. This will be a long process, but it will be nothing compared to the years of vassalage.
|
||
| ||
Reintegrate Cannabia
Once one of the wealthiest states in Asterion, Cannabia's historical careful management of resources was thrown out the window by the Vassalage. While some might despair, there is still life in those jungles, still minerals in those hills, still some souls left to carry on. The people need only be reminded of what they still have, and what they can get back.

The Nest of Vipers
Thymíaushafen was the capital of the Imperial occupation, and much was done to "griffonise" it. Temples of the old pantheon were torn down, Actualist philosophers were imprisoned or executed. Hundreds of thousands of griffons immigrated into the city and its surrounding area from all across the Empire. The scars of Néachóra, as it was once known, are the deepest ones. Healing them will be difficult...

Reintegrate the Creeper Mountains
The Creeper Mountain state was the furthest inland the old Asterionese Confederation ever got, and the minotaurs who lived there were a hearty group, bravely guarding the frontier of Asterion from foreign invaders. Years of Imperial plundering of the mines followed by occupation by a bandit army has left the land in ruins. The minotaurs who remain greet us with open arms as liberators, and it is our duty to aid them.
|
| |
Found The AAF
While we have generally been at the forefront of Naval innovation for a long time, we have lagged behind in developing technology for the skies. Currently the only thing that we have that could pass for an air force are a few reconnaissance aircraft and a griffon who thinks he is a Minotaur. Because of this we should now endevour to found an official airforce branch of our military to serve in the skies.
|
||
Airborne Divisions
The importation of a simple safety device for aircraft called a parachute has led our military planners to a startling conclusion. By giving these parachutes to soldiers and their equipment entire armies would be able to be inserted behind enemy lines to sow confusion. Should a sea landing become unviable these daring bulls of action will become invaluable.

Acquire Strategic Bomber Designs
While shooting enemy soldiers from the sky is cool it is also important to note that they can be replaced and will still have weapons to fire back at us. To remedy this we must develop Aircraft for the sole purpose of striking at enemy industrial and population centers.
|
| |
| ||
| ||
Purchase Civilian Shipyards
As the time for retaking the mainland grows ever closer we must enlarge military ship production to provide the escorts and fire support needed for a successful amphibious assault. Purchases of civilian shipyards will allow for the facilitation of this once the shipyards have been properly converted.
|
||
Expand the ACG
For decades the Asterion Coast Guard has been the sword arm of the nation's anti-piracy operations. The image of guardsbulls leading the charge into pirate ships to rescue slaves and clean up the sapient garbage of the sea is an enduring image in the culture of Asterion. Expanding the organization will no doubt help preparations for the upcoming reclamation.

Smokeless Powder
For many years now smokeless powder has been the standard propellent of almost every single firearms cartridge in civilian hands, but the standard infantry weapons of the military have yet to advance in the time since the Fall of The Empire and the succession wars that followed. It's time for the continuing resolution and deadlocked committees to end. The military needs modern firearms, and it needs them now.
|
| |
Motorised Infantry
With the new 'automobiles' proving their worth in the private sector every day it's time we capitalize on them for the Asterionese military. Since the minotaurs that make up the majority of the troops don't have flight or magic manipulation mechanization will more than make up for any shortcomings.
|
| |
Armoured Vehicle Development
Recently the Coast Guard has seized an illegal weapons trade seemingly headed for Gryphus coming from some port near Sicameon, interestingly though this shipment contained several armored vehicles that we can put to use be reverse engineering them for our military purposes.
|
| |
Modernized Artillery
For too long our artillery corps has been left our of the greater picture, though with the stiffening position of many of our opponents in our region our generals are starting to see the advantages of a powerful artillery force, and have begun to petition for more funds to be granted to this research.
|
| |
Arms Development Fund
With newer larger armies hitting the field across Griffonia, every day we see examples of how mass mobilization will be needed on a scale never before conceived. Part of this is the mobilization of materials of war, we can set up a special government body for the specific purpose of streamlining the process of manufacturing and delivering basic weapons to all of our soldiers.

LabCom
The many islands of the archipelago have equally as many schools, universities, and singular scientific laboratories. By setting up a system for these disconnected research centers to communicate and collaborate we shall greatly increase our capacity for research. Coincidently, there are a number of military testing grounds that shall be integrated into the system.
|
| |
| ||
Legacy Of Asterionese Industry
For generations we have stood proud, even while under yoke we fought with everything we had and with that came the need for innovation. Though now we have fallen behind other nations in regards to industry and the like, it is time to once more move to the forefront of a new age in manufacturing!
|
| |
Synthetic Resources
Whether they run on crystals, petroleum, or one of the more exotic power sources it is undeniable that aircraft require many resources to run that are just not found in sufficient numbers in Asterion. Therefore we must create our own supplies out of the resources we do have available.
|
||
Expand Rubber Plantations
Rubber has long been the primary export of Asterion. This is partly due to Imperial investment in the plantations, which meant that most of the produce was confiscated in the name of the Emperor to supply their own economy. But now that we are free, the plantations belong to us and so do their profits. We should plant even more rubber trees and become the rubber capital of Griffonia.
|
||
Synthetic Crystals
Magic crystals can store a great amount of power in them. It is becoming increasingly clear to us that they can be used for all kinds of purposes. However, our domestic supply is lacking, so we must experiment with "growing" artificial crystals and see if they are as good as the natural ones.
|
||
Continued Urbanisation
As the largest of the islands in the Asterion Archipelago, Kainourgio Spiti has a great amount of land usable for agriculture and mining, and as a result it has a relatively low urbanisation rate despite its large cities. By providing public jobs and building affordable housing, we can encourage further urban expansion.
|
||
Island Investment
There are many many small islands in the Asterion Archipelago, with many being grouped in larger states. Many of them have small populations and thus small economies. By investing in each of the states not on Kyanoia or Kainourgio Spiti we shall spread out our wealth more equally across the nation.
|
|
|
| ||
|
||
Archipelago Expansion
While the mainland states are still being restored to their former glory the states in the Home Islands are still ripe for military development. The plan for this expansion is simple: one state, one plot of land. This shall surely be a massive boon to our fighting capability once all plots are fully operational.
|
|
|
Import Foreign Machinery
After years of slavery under the Empire we have fallen behind many countries in the world that have, in the meantime, become quite advanced. Our only hope of catching up and joining the ranks of civilized nations of the world is by cooperating with them and purchasing the latest industrial designs, implementing similar reforms and learning their practices.
|
| |
Kókkino Mountain Complex
Kókkino Mountain might not be the largest mountain in the state of Ketta, but its unique and recently classified structure allows it to have a very valuable purpose for our war efforts; the inside can be hollowed out and filled with a heavily armored research complex. This shall allow us conduct all manner of research in secret without destroying the countryside.
|
| |
| ||
Divided We Are Weak!
The squabbling and disputes between the Unity party and the increasingly popular Fascio-Communist coalition must end! We are getting distracted from our main duty: Retaking our lost lands, liberating our race and safeguarding our freedom at any cost. If we keep arguing, unable to have a single, shared vision of the future, we will crumble and once again become slaves.
|
||
Unity Party Victorious!
After many debates and a swiftly prepared election, the Unity Party has emerged victorious! Konstantine Oplí keeps his position as the Protector of the Realm and promises to preserve liberty and republicanism on Asterion. Few outside might notice the difference, but something big has indeed happened.

Formalize the CFN
In recent years there has been a movement to formalize our alliance with our democratic amigos in Sicameon to allow for military and logistic cooperation. In a world filled with monarchs, dictators, and evil wizards, it is argued, the free peoples of the world need to band together for defense against those who would see them as slaves. The Concordat of Free Nations will evolve to become that band, and together we happy few shall make the world safe for liberty.
|
| |
| ||
Concordat Command Council
As forces from different nations in the CFN continue to fight alongside each other the need for a unified command at the strategic level becomes more clear. By setting up a council of war we can prevent further incidents like what happened with our sailors and the Sicameonese marines back in '02. We're still playing back that family for what happened to their penguins.
|
||
CFN Cadet Exchange Program
Each of the militaries of the Concordat brings something unique and interesting to the table, not only in terms of material but also in terms of tradition and tactics. Allowing our cadets the chance to spend a semester in a foreign school will those give them different perspectives that will make them better officers.
|
| |
Concordat Work Visa
As the need for military contractors to travel through different nations to do their jobs increases the paperwork involved also increases. By issuing a visa that is accepted by all CFN member states to those individuals deemed worthy of the privilege of free movement we can greatly reduce overhead costs. As a side effect, member states might see slight increases in their working populations.

Operation Outstretched Hand
The FToG has been an ally of Asterion in the past, with sailors from both nations cooperating with each other. It appears that some things have changed, however, and so it would be best to send a formal inquiry. If they still stand by democracy, then they should be invited to the CFN. If they have fallen to imperialism or anarchy, then we shall intervene.

Operation Ornithes
Macawia has long stood as an invincible bastion of democracy on Zebrica, and have been our neighbours since time immemorial. Many historical ties were cut during the Imperial rule, but it is time to restore them. Together, we will ensure that the bright light of liberty will never fade!

Office of Nonstandard Interventions
With the world becoming ever more dangerous we are faced with an uncomfortable truth which we can deny no longer - tyranny prevails in most of the world. To counteract it and encourage the spread of democracy we shall establish an intelligence agency to affect change in foreign countries. Basil Zacharias shall be the first head of this agency.
|
| |
Asterionese Ground and Air Expeditionary Force
With more under the table methods of liberation now firmly established it's time we deployed our forces in a more public manner. The AGAEF will allow our generals and the armies under them to publically volunteer to fight in foreign wars, surely allowing for a greater morale boost among the oppressed people of the world.
|
| |
Asterionese Citizen Soldiers
We can not rely on aggravated conscripts or brutish thugs to field in the ranks of our armies. No. Instead we must make our nation proud by fighting with only the greatest citizen soldiers for the defense of our nation. And with freedom and prestige on the line, we know many will accept the offer to join.
|

Operation Odysseus
After decades of planning the time has come to finally launch Operation Odysseus, the reconquering of the last four states of the old Asterion Confederation still under foreign occupation. The whole of the nation is dedicated to this one task, when it is finally complete we will be able to move on with the rest of our issues.

Negotiate For Our Lands
Now that the Imperialist oppressors have been disposed of it's time to secure the rest of our states which were lost during our subjugation. We shall open negotiations with whoever controls them now, and show the world how peace loving we are by taking back our lands without firing a shot. If they do not accept then we shall still show the world our resolve.

Operation Final Liberation
It's time to take back those states which remain in foreign control, one way or the other. A plan for a rapid seizure of land using no more than six divisions is being drawn up, and all will need to do once it is completed is position the correct divisions into position before sending the go ahead. This is it, after all this time our nation will be one once again.

Operation Aegis
While Blackrock and her henchgriffs overthrew the decadent monarchy of Blackhollow, they did not liberate their people. Instead, they were happy to let their homeland collapse into chaos and crime and have turned it into a vile hive of scum and villainy. Her disgusting rule shall not continue any longer.

Asterion Foreign Legion
There are many people across the globe who long to be part of the Asterionese way of life. To service these poor downtrodden we should establish a military unit made up entirely of perspective citizens. Once proven to be ideologically pure they shall be able to join the military in Asterion, and take their families too. Service will guarantee citizenship for these hopefuls.
|
| |
Fascio-Communist Victory!
Many said it couldn't be done, but the unified coalition of the fascists and the communists have finally secured an electoral majority. Asterion waits with bated breath for how these parties made up of minotaurs, who once swore that real change could only come through violent revolution, will govern.

Collective Construction
To allow for the construction of the immense bulwark that will keep the collective masses of Asterion safe from imperialist scum, sacrifices will have to be made. Individuality is great in times of peace, but this is a crisis with war but a hair's breadth away. Civilians will be organized into construction crews under the military's command to accomplish this great project.

Declare a State of Emergency
With our election victory over the Harmonists we were put into a power struggle within our own coalition, and it seems we finally have the upper hand. We can force the legislature to pass a movement declaring any action taken by the communist party a threat to national security. They will, of course, react. Making our victory just a bit more legal.
|
|
|
Encourage Asterionese Culture
Our nation, emanating like a beacon from our island, is unique in every possible way. We been before no tyrants, we fight eternally against impossible odds, and we leave to bones of imperialists in our wake. All of these ideas support our new idealogical goals, and we should promote them as such.
|
||
Support the Megali idea
Recently, political theorists and members of our party have begun to paint an image of a greater Asterion, encompassing land where there are any historical claims, or minotaur minorities. We should embrace this idea and begin to take a more aggressive stance towards our neighbors.
|
||
Operation Harpy
Macawia was once a friendly nation, long ago. But when the griffons came, the harpies did nothing and allowed us to be conquered. When the Restoration War was declared, they provided minimal support. They claim to fight for freedom, but allowed us to remain in slavery! Punishment is necessary to teach them a lesson.

Oppose Imperialism
The minotaurs have suffered under an Imperial yoke for far to long! First of the Griffons, then under the Unity party, who wished for every minotaur to stay subservient to their ideal of peace! But no longer! OUr nation shall oppose Imperialism in all forms, and always strive for the freedom of peoples!
|
||
Support the Honorary Minotaurs
Unlike griffons of the north who are happy to lick the boots of their lords and masters, the griffons of the south love freedom like we do. It is clear we should make a distinction between imperialist Herzlander filth and native southern griffons. Let the latter therefore be honorary minotaurs and receive our aid and protection!
