Nation Information:
My personal standpoint: research your nation's government at the time, and act accordingly.

I will, however, give you military sizes and populations.

Populations:
France - 39,500,000

Gameplay:

Turns: Each turn is 1 week long in real life, and takes up one month time in game. (prepare for a long ass game) In these turns, you may perform any of the following actions, which will be sent to me by pm:

Recruiting: You may not recruit, but will get 1/10th of your army back every two turns. (Germany has 5,000,000 troops. They get an extra 500,000 troops to make 5,500,000 troops total)

Moving: Mobilizations for attack will cost you $400 per soldier. (germany makes $650,000,000. This can mobilize 1,625,000 troops.) To attack or move, simply name the city you wish to attack, and designate number of troops you are sending. Also notify me of how you are getting there. Movement is 450 miles per turn. You must have a fleet in order to move an army overseas.

Fortifications: You may build fortifications. they are as follows:
Trench - cost ($0) - requirements (soldiers in area) - speed of build (per 1,000 troops: 30 miles per turn)
Large Fort - cost ($10,000,000) - requirements (soldiers in area) - speed of build (per 20,000 troops: 1 turns)
Small fort - cost ($5,000,000) - requirements (soldiers in area) - speed of build (per 10,000 troops: 1 turn)
fortified wall - cost ($2,000,000 per mile) - requirements (soldiers in area) - speed of build (per 20,000 troops: 1 turn per 10 miles)

For Defenders
trenches give defense of 30-100, attack of 20-100
small forts give defense of 35-100, attack of 30-100
large forts give defense of 45-100, attack of 45-100


Battles: Will be done in much the style of RoC.
Defender - Unit defence determined randomly from 20-100. Attack determined from 10-100.
Attacker - Unit attack determined from 20-100. Defence determined from 10-100.

The attacker rolls a die, and this is taken as the number who successfully attack the enemy. the defence than rolls, and this is taken as the percent who block it. The remaining attacks are then multiplied by .15 to get the casualties. If more than 1/2 of the army is killed at once, the army retreats, and is captured. If less than 1/4 are remaining, the army retreats, and is captured. Now, for an example on how this works out.

City defense: + 10
national city (in possesion before 1914): +10
Hostile city defense (belonged to enemy in last two turns): -10
civillian casualties taken in city battles (prevented by forts) (times .25 for round 1, times .1 for round 2, times .5 for consecutive rounds)
1/3 of casualties recover from wounds
No 100, only 99
If an army is captured, they get one round of fight first.



Example:
Round 1:
France (attacker comes first) vs. Germany(then the defender)
400,000 vs. 1,000,000 (soldiers in battle)

France rolls 60 attack. Germany rolls 40 defence. (400,000 x .60 x .60 x .35 = 50,400 germans killed) [reverse of def is taken to produce casualties]

round 2:
France (defending now) vs. germany (counterattacking)
400,000 vs. 949,600

Germany rolls 92 for attack. France rolls 24 for defence. (949,600 x .92 x .78 x .35 = 238,502 french killed) [decimals are rounded up] France Retreats with 161,498 troops remaining, and is captured by germans.

Ransoms: If you capture an enemy army, you may sell them back to the enemy for $1,000 per soldier. Or, you may execute them, or maybe use them to build stuff...

Losing cities: If you lose a city, you lose a fraction of your total population and un-deployed troops. Say, You have 4 cities, and you have a population of 4 million. You have 100,000 undeployed men. One city is taken, along with 1 million people, and your use of 25,000 of those men. (You lose a fraction of your people dependent on your number of cities. 4 cities, 1/4th per city. 24 cities, 1/24th per city.

Naval Actions:
Naval battles work in the same fashion as regular battles. Retreating ships will be captured.
Defender - Unit defence determined randomly from 20-100. Attack determined from 10-100. U-Boat defence from 50-100.
Attacker - Unit attack determined from 20-100. Defence determined from 10-100. U-Boat attack from 50-100.

Blockading a major city reduces the recipitent nations income, and halts troop movement to and from the city. Also halts naval production in the city. However, you have to fight any navy present.(Germany blockades Briton and France. France has two major cities remaining, income reduced by 1/2 per city blockaded. Britan has 10, income reduced by 1/10 for each city blockaded)

Naval recruitment:
Ships cost $500,000 each. U-Boat is $1,000,000.

Overseas speed is 2000 miles per turn. You must have a fleet in order to move an army overseas. If fleet is lost, army is lost. Max capacity is 3,000 soldiers per ship. If ships are lost, half of the soldiers aboard will be lost as well. Storms may damage fleet in travel. (exept for u-boats)





Income: total population multiplied by ten (except for russia, where it is total population multiplied by 5)

[Julian the apostate]

I will take Russia. if possible

I was almost afraid somebody would beat you to it. Just wouldnt be the same without you...

[Motep]

[RoadKill]

Julian, I'll give you the U.K, for russia.

[Csargo]

I was almost afraid somebody would beat you to it. Just wouldnt be the same without you...

:grin: No one can take it before me. With you taking France it'll probably get complicated.

[ELITEofWARMANGINGERYBREADMEN88]

Oh Jesus, in the SPanish War, I got a bigger empire then you, here, you bigger then me, uh nos! :laugh4:

:grin: No one can take it before me. With you taking France it'll probably get complicated.

If you had never taken germany, I would never have taken France. Just like the good ol' days, eh? *nudges Ichigo*

I think there should be a poll as to whether everyone is okay with Motep playing France.

I don't mind, I think it's odd the Host is playing as a crucial Country, but doesn't mainly bother me as long as he plays Fairly :yes:


To The German States,


Are you intersted in signing a Non-Agression Pact? Mabye even sent up a Trade Argeement?










OCC:

Gotta find out what Swissland's Leader was,and how big my army is in case I get attack (mind you, trying to be netrual,but this is IH,anything can happen) :yes:

[Stig]

Belgium not in?

If possible I'd love to be Holland

[Warmaster Horus]

Call me when Canada's available, okay?

I never did this before, so I'll have some time to see what happens before I get in to play.

[shlin28]

Grr....... all the countries I like are taken :no:

I'll take Serbia then.

[Don Corleone]

I think Austria-Hungary is still open. If so, I would like to sign up for them. If not, no problem.

[Csargo]

Welcome esteemed ally. ~:cheers:

[seireikhaan]

Welcome esteemed ally. ~:cheers:
So you plan on going the historical route, then? Good luck with that, didn't seem to work out too good in real life.:skull: Anywho's, all shall bow before the might of the Moroccan Sultanate! Long live Casablanca!

EDIT: Not so hot on the host playing in the game. No offense, Motep, I just feel its way to easy to even subconciously tip the odds in your favor.

[Csargo]

I just assumed we started off allies...

[ELITEofWARMANGINGERYBREADMEN88]

So you plan on going the historical route, then? Good luck with that, didn't seem to work out too good in real life.:skull: Anywho's, all shall bow before the might of the Moroccan Sultanate! Long live Casablanca!

Yes, but this time the Italians(me) will keep our word and stick with the Triple Alliance.

[Csargo]

All the major nations are taken ~:cheers:

[Ignoramus]

Morocco was part owned by France in 1914...

[seireikhaan]

Oooh, slight problem for the Moroccan Sultanate. Just did a quick skim on research, and it turns out that Morocco become under French Protectorate in 1912. So, either I'll have to pick a new faction, or we'll have to give history a little bit more of a tweak than usual. If I need a new faction, I'll go with Norway/Sweden.

[seireikhaan]

Morocco was part owned by France in 1914...
:laugh4: Beat me by two minutes...

[woad&fangs]

Morocco can just fight for independence against France.

"Italy would like to extend the hand of brotherhood and be the first to recognize the Sultanate of Morocco as an independent and Sovereign state."

[Caius]

I claim Portugal to be mine also.

[Csargo]

Japan should be added to the Minor nations list, China also I believe.

[Motep]

Japan should be added to the Minor nations list, China also I believe.

No. I dont feel like including asia.

Garcilaso, you cant have portugal.

I, as leader of France and game administrator, declare that Morocco is It's own nice little country.

As for us starting of affiliated, no. We start off all neutral, and at the assasination of the Arch-Duke. We pick sides from there (Entete, central powers, and Neutral.).

I will remain as france. My backup nation of Greece has been taken. (And I want to play, too, damnit :grin2: . I will formulate my plans before I release the next turn, so I am not left with such temptation.)

I will start this as sson as I get some game stuff put together.

[Csargo]

Ok.

[Caius]

Garcilaso, you cant have portugal.
Cant I have it?

:bigcry:

[Csargo]

You'd have to invade, and I don't think too many people will be happy with that

[woad&fangs]

"Italy respects the sovereignty of Portugal and will kick Spain's @$$ if they attempt an invasion of Portugal."

[Csargo]

You and what army??? :grin:

https://img411.imageshack.us/img411/8093/1190764161940qy5.jpg

The German Army, we only stop for kittens.

[RoadKill]

Okay just to admit, I have no idea how this game works, and my marks with history isn't too good either.

[Motep]

Okay just to admit, I have no idea how this game works, and my marks with history isn't too good either.

Ill explain it later.

I am changing from France to portugal, need a new person for france.

[woad&fangs]

Oh, In that case I don't give a baboon's backside about the sovereignty of Portugal.

[seireikhaan]

Okay, since apparently I can still play as Morocco, I shall. I am leading the Sultanate(again).

[Motep]

Okay, since apparently I can still play as Morocco, I shall. I am leading the Sultanate(again).

Not so fast, I am still tweaking game issues. Morocco may yet be removed for lack of information. (sorry)

[seireikhaan]

:inquisitive: Okaaay...
Ahh, never mind. I'll just play as France if I can't play as Morocco then.

UNFINISHED


I read Swiss had 3,900,000-4,000,000 people then, but I will research more.

[Csargo]

At its birth Germany occupied an area of 208,825 square miles (540,854 square km) and had a population of more than 41 million, which was to grow to 67 million by 1914

http://www.britannica.com/eb/article-58192/Germany

[Motep]

They will be factored in.

Also, Give me time, I still have to balance the system. If you have an addition or correction to make, please, say so.

[RoadKill]

Seriously could someone explain what I'm suppose to do.

[Motep]

Updated....finally

Need someone to play France, so we can start.

Onc more, if you have something to add or edit, contact me.

Roadkill, look at the first post. If you are still confused, pm me, and I will try to help you.

[seireikhaan]

Soo... Morocco's out then. In that case, I'll get this game started and play as France.

[RoadKill]

I still dont get it..... :sweatdrop:. This is so confusing, all this math and stuff, could someone just guide me through the game.

[Csargo]

I think you need to work on the economics more Motep. Russia makes more than me :sweatdrop:

[Motep]

I still dont get it..... :sweatdrop:. This is so confusing, all this math and stuff, could someone just guide me through the game.

Do not worry, Roadkill, ask me what you need help with when you do, and I will help you. As it is, I dont know what you want help with




The Game Begins! Turn One:

Archduke Ferdinand assaninated!
The Archduke, heir to the Austrian-Hungarian throne, was assasinated by The Black Hand (for those in the furure, look online for details). Austria-Hungary demanded that Serbia do something. They did not act fast enough, however, and Austria-Hungary deemed them non-compliant, and soon declared war. The rest of Europe now much decide if they should aid either Austria-Hungary (Don Corleaone), or the serbs (Shlin28). Or even if they should remain neutral.

This turn will end on friday (by U.S standards), or when everybody is affiliated with either party, or has chsoen to remain neutral. When you choose your side, declare it publically, a tally will be kept. Also, send me the deployment locations of your armies by pm.





-------------------------------------------------------------------







I, Motep, Leader of the Republic of Portugal, will keep my neutrality in this war.

[ELITEofWARMANGINGERYBREADMEN88]

I, Warman8 of Switzerland, will keep my neutrality in this war. We will not risk our destruction of our country.


(I look to see if I find the name of my Swiss Leader, and Motep, I PM you soon :-) )

[RoadKill]

Wait so I can just tell you anywhere on teh map to send my armies to? In the pm, can you just show me how the basic pm would look like for me to send it.

[Tiberius of the Drake]

wat about Poland? I know it wasnt a country at the time but could someone take over the population and potentially cede from Russia?

[Csargo]

I think the threat of Polish revolution was long gone by this time.

[CountArach]

Gah! My beloved Serbia is taken!

Are there any free nations?

[Warmaster Horus]

What happened to Canada on the list?

If I can't be them, I'll be the US, then.

[Stig]

Motep, I'm Holland (as I want to be a neutral from the start)


So: Neutrality here we come

[Prince Cobra]

OOC: Well, I am Bulgaria. Since I do not have much PM space and I am a bit busy for polite denials, I will communicate only with my neighbours discussing the neutral position Bulgaria have (so far). To all: you may read the previous Interactive but it is not obligatory I will have the same decisions. Depending how hard you try, mates, I can be either your enemy or ally :beam: :bow:

We of Bulgaria declare we are neutral and we ask our borders to be respected. We also note that despite the territorial disputes with Serbia, Greece and Romania for the territories where Bulgarian population live, we will not change our stance so far. We sincerely hope a peaceful way out of the world crisis would be found!

Ferdinand, Tzar of Bulgaria

Vasil Radoslavov, Prime-minister

P.S. I will be replying on Wednesday and Friday on the messages. Do not worry if i am not fast.

[woad&fangs]

"The assasination of Archduke Ferdinand is considered by the Italians as an act of war upon our Allies, Austria-Hungary. Italy declares war on Serbia."

[shlin28]

:furious3: I'm so screwed... and here I was thinking of making a speech about how it wasn't our fault :wall:

Meh... might as well...

"The strong had once again declared war against a poor defenceless country... and though the kingdom of Serbia grieves also for the death of the Archduke, it should be noted that it was only the action of a few from the violent Black Hands that commited this horrendous crime, we, the government of Serbia, and its civilians, its army and its affiliated organisations, played no part in this hideous plot! But our borders will be violated, and our peaceful country destroyed soon... who will aid us? Who will take up the torch of Slavic freedom now? We, the people of Serbia, beg for the world to intervene, stop this conflict, and resolve the problem once and for all. But now, it is with heavy heart that we mobilise our troops, so as to defend our little realm... For now we stand alone, and alone we will surely fall...we who will answer the call of the weak? of freedom? of peace?"


Петар I Карађорђевић (King Peter I of Serbia)

[Csargo]

A leader who cannot control his people is not a leader at all. You must take the blame for what your people have done, because it is your fault that you cannot control them. I will not declare war as of yet, but will await Franz Joseph to contact us with what he wishes my people to do.

[shlin28]

And I see that Germany has no dissidents? Perhaps because your military crushed and massacred them all? :book:

My secret police have a list of approximately 50 known associates of the Black Hand. Simply take them into custody, turn them over to us, and this can all be avoided. I'm a reasaonable man, and I have no desire to flatten Sarajevo. But I will not allow the death of my nephew and heir to go unpunished.

[Csargo]

And I see that Germany has no dissidents? Perhaps because your military crushed and massacred them all? :book:

A group of know terrorists would of course be crushed.

Isn't Sarajevo in your land? By all means, flatten it if you want :clown:

We will consider handing over the associates, if only they were tried in an international court, and be treated fairly.

[Don Corleone]

I meant Belgrade. You do not get to set conditions. We will not have you shuttle them off on a train to Moscow in the night where their Slavic brothers stage a false court to rubber-stamp their innocence. You asked how to avoid war and this is how. You do not have much time. Either turn the 50 suspects over to Imperial Austrian forces, AT ONCE, or prepare for war. But do not protect murderers and then claim you had no choices. Your choice is simple, turn over the Bosnian nationalists to whom you have granted asylum, or share their fate.

[ELITEofWARMANGINGERYBREADMEN88]

I hope That the countries involved settle this issue. I do not wish to see war break out, escally close to our small,peaceful country.


-Messanger from the Swiss

awwww. Actually, you should have picked Sweden for old time sake :laugh4:

[shlin28]

I meant Belgrade. You do not get to set conditions. We will not have you shuttle them off on a train to Moscow in the night where their Slavic brothers stage a false court to rubber-stamp their innocence. You asked how to avoid war and this is how. You do not have much time. Either turn the 50 suspects over to Imperial Austrian forces, AT ONCE, or prepare for war. But do not protect murderers and then claim you had no choices. Your choice is simple, turn over the Bosnian nationalists to whom you have granted asylum, or share their fate.

To whoever person that rules Austria:

If we hand this people to you, won't they recieve an unfair trail from you too? We only ask for an internation court, but if you continue to behave this way, your troops will face a hard fight across the land of Serbia...

Canada's military is added onto Britain, so I removed Canada as a playable faction.

I'll go for Don Corleone's offer and take over as Austria, if I'm allowed.

[Motep]

Okay.

I might need sombody to do the map. I tried three times to update morocco, using paint (my computer sucks and cant run adobe photoshop, the only other editing program i have) and it keeps doing the thing where it makes a giant line through the whole thing. So, I have to start over...This is really pissing me off....

[RoadKill]

So i'm taking I can't send Airaids, send in tanks, send in warships?

[woad&fangs]

So i'm taking I can't send Airaids, send in tanks, send in warships?
Tanks were not used until the Somme offensive in 1916 so you'll probably have to wait a little while. Also, tanks in the First World War were slow, vulnerable to artillery fire and mechanically unreliable. Aircraft in WWI were mostly used for reconaisscance and destroying Deutch Zeppelins. They also were not large enough to carry serious payloads of explosives. As for warships, They actually played a large role in causing Britain's entrance into the war and if the naval battle of Jutland had swung in favor of Deutschland than the war could have turned out vastly differently. So feel free to unleash your Castles of Steel upon us.

[ELITEofWARMANGINGERYBREADMEN88]

Swissland is landlocked, Thank God, so no Naval attacks on my Country. Tanks weren't good. They were good for killing over the Barbed Wire and scarign your foes at force, but later on, people got used to them.

[Motep]

Ill have to make something for naval and air actions...If any of you have a standing policy...

As for tanks, those deathtraps wont be involved untill 1916.

Damn you Ig! I shall be first on the waiting list then I guess.

As an outside observer I say let them hand over the Black Hand if they wish. WWI is still bound to happen and it would be interesting if it occurred without Serbia or with a Serbian Aggressor... something like that.

Norway announces strict Neutrality in the Austro-Serbian war. However, I will make it clear that any aggression with no reason shall no go unpunished.

[Csargo]

OOC:I think you should have started us out as it was in history, but that is my opinion. It would get the game moving faster.

[Ignoramus]

We wish to uphold our neutrality in any conflicts between the major powers. Should our neutrality be violated, we shall have no hesitation in joining the enemies of our enemies.

Albert, King of the Belgians.

[Csargo]

I formally declare war on Serbia and her allies. I shall mobilize 50% of my total military might.

[woad&fangs]

Leaders of Austria-Hungary, The Serbians have repeatedly tried to make amends. It is now clear to us that you are nothing more than a petty and imperialistic country. Our alliance is based off of self defense so we wish to inform you that you will not have the aid of Italy in this war. Serbia's sovereignty should not be threatened because of the actions of a few of its citizens. I'm sure you too have some riff-raff in your country. Let the Black Hand be tried in an international court or else we will be forced by dignity, honor, and chivalry to protect the weaker Serbians from your expansionist ways.

In short, I switch to the Entente.

Edit: It seems that war has begun and Serbia's right to freedom has been violated. We officially declare war on Deutchland(Germany). I too will mobilize 50% of my total military might.

[Csargo]

No matter cowards will always be cowards.

[Ignoramus]

OOC: This shouldn't be allowed. The major powers should follow history, otherwise it is going to be a very short interactive.

How can Germany survive against France, Russia, and Austria? It can't. As a result, the Germans will stay neutral, and this game will grind to a halt.

I suggest that the Entente(Britain, France, and Russia) and the Central Powers(Germany and Austria-Hungary), should at least follow history until 1915.

Edit: And the Austrians hated the Serbs, they wouldn't merely accept the assasination of the heir to the throne by a Serbian as not being important.

[Seign Thelas]

What you say bears weight. Allow the Black Hand to be tried in an international court. I will formally acquit them of all charges in my country. Either way, if I release them or not, however, Serbia will bear the weight of the Black Hand's sin. The murder of my heir must be paid for in the blood of the culprits, and if the Black Hand is vindicated, their countrymen must take the fall for them.

[Seign Thelas]

I hereby declare that, as the British, the Belgians, the Swiss, and the Dutch, although claiming neutrality, are all of the same root as the Austrian people, that root being Germanic, they will always be seen through respectful eyes in Austria-Hungary, even if relations will sour between us. No aggression will ever be declared by The Austro-Hungarian Empire upon any of the aforementioned peoples. But if aggression is made upon us, a reaction can not be avoided.

And to the Leader of Italy:

You are a traitor and a coward. You are motivated by ambition to turn against us. You had no place in this conflict to begin with, and now you seek to take our land. Your regime's demise will be swift and amusing.

[King Jan III Sobieski]

Greece (This will be on the exam!!!
"In March 1821, the Greeks rebelled against the Ottoman Empire. Their struggle lasted until 1829, when the independence of the nascent Greek state was finally recognised under the London Protocol, although the Ottomans delayed recognition until the Treaty of Constantinople of 1832. In 1827, the Russian ex-minister of foreign affairs, Ioannis Kapodistrias (Ιωάννης Καποδίστριας), a noble Greek from the Ionian Islands, was chosen as the governor of the new Republic. However, the Great Powers soon dissolved that republic and installed a monarchy. The first king, Otto, was of the Bavarian House of Wittelsbach. The War of Independence also set in motion the establishment of major new cities and centres of trade such as Hermoupolis, Athens and Pireaus. In 1843 King Otto was forced, as a result of an uprising, to grant his subjects a constitution and a representative assembly. He was deposed in 1863 and replaced by Prince Vilhelm (William) of Denmark, of the Schleswig-Holstein-Sonderburg-Glücksburg line of the House of Oldenburg, who took the name George I and brought with him the Ionian Islands as a coronation gift from Britain. On 29 March 1864, the Treaty of London pledged the transfer of sovereignty to Greece upon ratification. Thus, on May 28, by proclamation of the Lord High Commissioner, the Ionian Islands were united with Greece.

Greece was growing economically, whilst becoming politically more liberal. In 1877, Prime Minister Charilaos Trikoupis curbed the power of the monarchy to interfere in the Assembly. This period was punctuated by the undertaking of one of the largest construction initiatives on the European continent, one of significant commercial importance; the creation of the Corinth Canal, lasting from 1881 to 1893. In 1896 the Olympic Games were revived in Athens, and hailed as a success.

As a result of the Balkan Wars of 1912-13, Crete, Chios, Samos, most of Epirus and southern Macedonia, including Thessaloniki, were incorporated into Greece. King George, monarch for five decades, was assassinated in Thessaloniki in 1913; he was succeeded by his eldest son, King Constantine I." (That's me!!! :yes:)

"The Hellenic Army (Greek: Ελληνικός Στρατός) is the land force of Greece. The Army of the modern nation of Greece has a history of nearly 190 years and came to its present form, gradually through those years.

Motto of the Hellenic Army is "Freedom Stems from Valor" (Greek: "Ελεύθερον το Εύψυχον") and the Hellenic Army Emblem represents the two-headed eagle looking both left and right and the white cross in blue background placed in the middle."

[shlin28]

Do not Worry Franz Joseph. We, The Swiss, are Netrual, and wish to remain peaceful. But I am worried that the countries, including Austria-Hungray, that are bording our peaceful nation, might invade us to try to attack another.

We are not trying to goat or flex our mitliart might since our army is small, or to cause touble, But we are just wanting to say that We will remain netrual, but if any country wishes to invade us, we will defend our nation to push the invading force out, so we could become netural and peacefull again :yes: .

Also Switzerland would you like to consider a Non-agressinal-Pact, with Britain, it will surly be a good decision for the both of us.

Nay, this is not so, my good King George. Again, if a nation chooses to stay neutral, Greece respects that decision and will in no way violate said nations' sovereignty. I am merely saying that there are much larger powers out there who may not take as honorable a stance toward neutral states as I have.

Constantine I., King of Greece :egypt:

[Seign Thelas]

The only reason Greece is taking a neutral stance is because they don't have any power to do anything otherwise.

Yes, and those 3 men and the goat you have in your army look verrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrry scary:laugh4: Just stand back and let the Italians do the real fighting. We'll call you if we need any cannon fodder.

[Csargo]

Very nice way of supporting your allies...we Germans would never do such a thing.

[woad&fangs]

Just got around to finding Italies Prime minister at the time, Antonio Salandra.

[RoadKill]

What are we suppose to do now?

[Motep]

...ummm...You be patient. We still have people who have not sent in turns. I dont think Ill think of something for the navy for a while. As for the airforces, they become available in 1916.

Warluster, glad to see you in the game. Ill mark you down as sweeden.

[RoadKill]

Kal' Motep my British troop's most important weapon is warships. I'll help you make the system, how about this each turn the ships can travel *so many #* of miles, if needed to fight, just do the caculatingthe way you would caculate troops fighting. Then the one that loses will lose all the troops in the ships. Or something along hte lines of that.

[King Jan III Sobieski]

Yes, and those 3 men and the goat you have in your army look verrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrry scary:laugh4: Just stand back and let the Italians do the real fighting. We'll call you if we need any cannon fodder.

You forget Greece is the successor to the great Eastern Roman Empire!

Umm, actually, that would be the Ottoman Empire...

Yea, OK, so they got Constantinople, big deal! Byzantium and Greece are synonymous!

[Motep]

Not a bad Idea Roadkill. I still need blockading options and stuff, so i will develop that now.

[Motep]

Navy done. Also, retreating enemy soldiers and ships will be captured.

[shlin28]

Wow the navy looks expensive... thankfully Serbia is land-locked country :laugh4:

[Motep]

Wow the navy looks expensive... thankfully Serbia is land-locked country :laugh4:

They are, we cant have 30 million ships running around. Besides, the costs have to cover labor pay and everything else.

[RoadKill]

I'm still confused how is my countries amount of money caculated?

[Motep]

I'm still confused how is my countries amount of money caculated?

The population of your country (45,500,000) times 10. (Your income is $455,000,000 per turn)

[ELITEofWARMANGINGERYBREADMEN88]

The population of your country (45,500,000) times 10. (Your income is $455,000,000 per turn)


SO Next Turn I will get $40,000,000 since I have 4,000,000 People? Plus, will we get 1/10 of our troops back next turn also?

You know, the Greeks have an old story about a pony... well, it was more of a horse. A big horse. And it was made out of wood. :laugh4:

Nice Mr. Motep. When is the Deadline??

[RoadKill]

Wow seems like Austria is really kicking Serbias butt.

[Motep]

umm...sunday?

Also, everybody has an extra 10% troops they have to make use of.

[RoadKill]

Alright, Britain is bored and we want to waste wisly use some of our soldier to demolish some countries

-King George V

[Csargo]

Hmm?

[CountArach]

Wow, that is far more casuallties than a month's fighting warrants.

[King Jan III Sobieski]

Greece congratulates Italy on its victory. Shall you be able to hold onto your new aquisitions?

Let u know if you shall need any...canon fodder. :whip:

[Julian the apostate]

The Great Empire of Russia demands passage through the Bosporus and enquires the Ottoman Sultanate if this demand will be met with or without resistance?

Also France, If our Great Nation has not yet aligned with yours I would like to offer our aid to you

[shlin28]

-Franz Joseph

Is this really what a civilised country would do? We Serbians had bowed to all but one of your conditions, yet you still vehemently started the war? No, Sarajevo is a city of Slavs, and it will remain a city of the Slavs! Our country might fall... but our spirit will live on!

Comrades and friends of Serbia, we urge you to aid our beleagured country! Long live the Entente (minus Britain and possibly Russia), Greece, Italy and Slavs of the world!

Edit: Isn't it a bit weird how one million Austrian soldiers were manouvered to attack one city? I swear that wasnt possible...

[RoadKill]

Kal' Motep if I could make a suggestion, maybe we should create a disadvantage for those who send more troops then 600 000 to attack someone, becuase in real life it would be a complete mess.

[shlin28]

Yar, I mean, my entire army is no where near one million :no:

[Julian the apostate]

Mother Russia must be able to deploy its 13,000,000 troops somehow

Also Austria you face a fearful attack if you continue this crazed assault on Russia's Friends and kin the Serbs. Do not attempt to face our hordes

[Csargo]

The Great Empire of Russia demands passage through the Bosporus and enquires the Ottoman Sultanate if this demand will be met with or without resistance?

Also France, If our Great Nation has not yet aligned with yours I would like to offer our aid to you

Is this a declaration of war?

Roadkill&shlin:It's possible to attack with a million men over a period of time. It's not like a million went at once.

[Motep]

Is this a declaration of war?

Roadkill&shlin:It's possible to attack with a million men over a period of time. It's not like a million went at once.

Yes. Each round is about a day's time. Stilll, I had to redo the battle withg the new defensive stuff. (In the first battle, serb had 300,000 left; aust had 800,000...pretty even...might have to redo some stufff...)

Would it be better if I would make it "1,000,000 x .1 x blah x blah"?

[RoadKill]

All up to you Kal' Motep.

----------------

The Kingdom of Britain has seen the onsalught between Austria and Serbia. We have watched enough, our neutrality will be ended, we have decided to declare war against Austria, prepare to face the mighty power of Britain.

[Julian the apostate]

No, but if you continue to attack Serbian and indeed do choose to destroy the serbs then War will be declared.

(so basically this turn I'm not going to strike)

[ELITEofWARMANGINGERYBREADMEN88]

All up to you Kal' Motep.

Swissland (easiler for me to spell) will allow King George to Use our country as a base. We will also declare War on Austria.
