32 Yes 33Would Heerema try to become direct leader of Ukrainian SS to control it/place figurehead as a leader?
33 Not sure on how Heerema will handle the SS yet
(33 alrigh so the ss are not under rk justridcation its complicated its more up to germany but since rk are more their own state
you can have it proably be something like well it depends what exactly the ss is in ukraine does it still manage the police if so then he could proably take the police away from them and integrate it into his own thing.
same with the w-ss but i dont know the exact details of the ss in ulkraine-ewatta posting) 34Would Heerema built huge trade fleet to export goods poduced by NOC?
34 Not a huge one but if he finds markets outside of continental Europe he'd invest in at least some trade ships 35Would Heerema spend huge amounts of money on PR department that would advertise NOC goods worldwide?
35 Not a huge amount but Heerema would try to break into markets outside of the Pakt with varying degrees of success 36Would Heerema be interested in computers/guangdong techonologies if someone told him they would help NOC to become more profitable?
36 Too far away to have much access to them 37Would Heerema Ukraine had bigger GDP growth than 10%?
37 Haven't gotten to focus effects and such for Heerema yet so I'm not sure 38What is gonna happen with Leibbrandt and Brautigam if Heerema wins UCW?
38 TBD 39Would Heerema be executed if RK wins UCW?
39 Need to talk to Kyiv about that 40What would happen when Bormann/Speer start slave repatriations, Heerema would try to not change anything in Ukraine besides de iure situation in papers?
40 Heerema would try to avoid real change to the system 41What Heerema thinks about Koch and what would happen with Koch in his Ukraine?
41 Heerema thinks of Koch as unworthy of ruling Ukraine and that he would be much better than Koch 42What would be Heerema’s reaction to Gorby win in Moskowien?
42 Heerema wouldn't like Gorby winning out but it wouldn't cause him to panic or anything 43Would Heerema try to kindle divisions between Slavs and other minorities(divide et impere)?
43 Yes 44Would corruption be rampant in his Ukraine?
44 Of course 45Would settlers enjoy quality of life similar to reich if Heerema achieves full success?
45 Not sure if it'd be on par with Germany itself but under Heerema can improve the quality of life of settlers 46What is Heerema’s type of economy?
46 Nazi corporate monopoly (Heerema would try to control as much of the Ukrainian economy as he possibly can) 47Are there any important supporters of Ohlendorf that would later change side and work for Heerema?
47 Maybe some SS men but I would need to check with Kyiv 48Are there any important division between NOC members?
48 So far I only have 2 that I'm 100% sure I'm using and one of those is Heerema so :funnyclockman: (finding NOC guys with portrait sources is hard)
48 what about the second one?
the second one (Frederic Louis Rambonnet, Treasurer (also seen it as Treasury) General of the NOC) isn't very liked by Heerema since he's corrupt in a way that doesn't benefit the NOC (leeching off company resources) 49Would Heerem visit Netherlands and react differently to each leader?
49 Yeah he probably would 50Would Heerema after tno1 think about expanding NOC into other RKs and would he rule Ukraine until his death?
50 He'd try to do that in TNO1 though whether he can successfully revive the NOC branches in the other Eastern RKs is a different question. He'd like to rule Ukraine as long as possible, though I'm not sure if he'll rule it until he dies 51Would NOC influence be permanently purged if Heerema loses UCW?
51 Yes, the NOC under Heerema betrayed the Reich. And if the partisans win, well, they aren't going to let a Nazi company survive 52Would Heerema be on good terms with Donitz?
52 No but they aren't enemies either 53Would Heerema try encourage the investments from other Pakt countries (but investors would be forced to cooperate with NOC)?
53 Absolutely 54Would any Heerema kid get important post during tno1?
54 They are pretty young but I do have some ideas for them 55Would NOC don’t have any possibility to expand into Moskowien/Ostland if they are ruled by Gorby/Landrut?
55 Yeah but operating there would be pretty hard since there'd actually be competition and government oversight unlike Ukraine where the NOC rules undisputed 56What Heerema do during SS coup and wrw?
56 Take advantage of the economic chaos to expand the NOC as Krupp (the main corporation in Ukraine) suffered from the crisis
57Would Heerema try to earn some money on smuggling?
57 No, he'd want to run a legal business 58Would Heerema give alcohol and narcotics to non-germans to make them obedient?
58 If it doesn't impede profits Heerema would do a lot of things to non-Germanic (the idea of equal rights between all Germanic/Aryan people is very important to him) people 59What Heerema think about Waldheim, Speer’s minister for East?
59 idk who Waldheim is 60Can Frederic Louis Rambonnet become de facto ruler of Ukraine or lost entire power?
60 TBD but I have some ideas 61Would Heerema and his company become the richest in Europe?
61 No, but he will try
62Does NOC have any ties with NSB?
62 Yes, Heerema was an NSB member. Not sure what the status of the NSB is at game start
63Is Meinoud Rost van Tonningen dead in 62?
63 I'm not sure what I want to do with him. He's not going to be as influential as he was at the founding of the NOC though
64Does NOC is considered as modern successor of dutch east indian company?
64 From my understanding the company sort of larped as a new VOC but no one would actually consider it a modern successor
65Why Heerema basically leads NOC while irl he was deposed due to “poor management”?
65 Because Heerema has led the NOC in TNO for a long time and replacing him is too much effort at this point

68Would Heerema do any megaprojects?
68 I have some ideas
69Would Heerema build nuclear plant?
69 I've considered it but it wouldn't lead to a Chernobyl type disaster
70Who are the most important members of NOC besides Heerema and Rambonnet?
70 Daniël Krantz (at the very least I'm pretty sure he's the right Krantz) and Franciscus Bernardus Johannes Gips but I couldn't find a portrait source for either of them so I can't use them as ministers or heads of state for anything
71Does Heerema and Rambonnet have different approaches to economy?
71 Heerema's more interested in an actual business, Rambonnet just wants to make money for himself
72Would Heerema have the best possible healthcare for settlers?
72 It would be pretty good, not as good as in Germany proper
73Would Heerema create a welfare state for settlers?
73 Not really a welfare state but he does create a program very similar to Strength Through Joy for them and subsidizes education and healthcare (in exchange for them being loyal employees and customers)
74Would Heerema be more or less effective in combatting partisans in comparison to rk?
74 About the same
75Will Heerema Ukraine change Speer content,like when he deals with megacorps would in his mechanic(that shows which states are controlled by each megacorp) Ukraine be marked as controlled by NOC or after Speer kicks german megacorps from Ukraine he gets an event when he realises his efforts make Ukraine NOC state?
75 Need to talk to Speer team about it but I have some ideas as for how Heerema can suffer less from Speer's megacorp stuff
76Would tensions between Heerema and Frauenfeld lead to war?
76 No

77 I don't have a maximum number yet

79 I have one I might use but he wasn't in the NOC OTL and I'm not sure if I'm going to use him
80What would be the most important collab groups in Heerema Ukraine?
80 Heerema mostly allows the collabs from the RK to work with him (he does replace their leaders with men who can be more easily bought)

81 None outside the Pakt
82Would Heerema have easier negotiations with Speer than Leibbrant?
82 Not sure
83Does Heerema have any friends in ukrainian SS?
83 No, Ohlendorf has a monopoly on the Ukrainian SS
84Are there any Waffen SS division in 63 in Ukraine(if yes, would they fight on Volksdirektorat side)?
The Waffen SS would exist, but they'd fight on the RK's side, and be expanded through conscription leading up to and during the UCW
85Would Heerema try to establish NOC branches in Paktkomission Kongo and Boer Republic?
85 If he does they'd be small ones
86What would be favorite Pakt of Heerema- Bormann, Stahlecker, Helldorf, Sidos and Pleiger?
86 Helldorf wouldn't be that good for Heerema for reasons I can't leak now
87Are there any regions Heerema wants to “aryanize” first?
87 He doesn't have a region he really focuses his Germanization on
88Which other Rk would be in Heerema’s opinion the most important for NOC to expand?
88 Stahlecker for Ostland, idk for Moskowien
89Where are the NOC headquarters in 62?
89 Kharkov, it was initially in Kiev but Heerema moved it to get away from potential government snooping

92 No

94 The Germans (at least in the RK administration) wouldn't treat the Dutch as true equals
95Are there any Heerema views that can be considered not-nazi?
95 Not really non-Nazi but Heerema held the belief that all Aryans were equal (so Germans were no more Aryan than Dutch people or Scandinavians in his eyes)
96Would Bormann highway project after being built in Ukraine be very beneficial for Heerema?
96 Yes, it'd be very good for logistics
97How would Bormann-Heerema negotiations look” Hello mein furer,I had to end mismanagment of Koch administration” and then Heerema promise to deliver resources, goods etc. to reich and status of Crimea is settled?
97 They'd be relatively smooth (considering that Heerema launched a coup against the legitimate government) so long as Heerema keeps the money flowing. Heerema would tell Bormann that he prevented Leibbrandt from subverting the RK with his pro-Ukrainian agenda and fixed the mismanagement and instability of the RK while delivering lots of grain and other resources to sweeten the deal
98Would Heerema prefer development of railways or roads?
98 Railways for shipping resources, roads for settler use

100 Not really unless he thinks they're necessary for logistics
