WWI Inerative MK II

[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

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.

"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."

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

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?

[Don Corleone]

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]

A group of know terrorists would of course be crushed.

[Caius]

I'm willing to do nothin.

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

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

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

[Csargo]

I do believe you two are already at war though.

[ELITEofWARMANGINGERYBREADMEN88]

OCC:Arthur Hoffmann was the Swiss Preisdent in 1914 for your information.

[Seign Thelas]

Any open spots?

[Don Corleone]

Actually, Seignthales, why don't you take over as Austria. I've already got my hands full, and I really shouldn't have signed up for this. I'll watch intently though!

[Csargo]

AWWWW

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

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...

[Csargo]

This can't be a WWI Interactive if there is no WWI.

[ELITEofWARMANGINGERYBREADMEN88]

argeed. just because it's a IH, doesn't mean WWI can't happen. it needs to happen to make this work

[Motep]

Exactly! No turning over the black hand...ummm...they have escaped Serbia...yeah.

Open slots: belgium

Map will be edited soon

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

(As game moderator, I am more or less forced to remain neutral in the game at this point. So do not attack me, or you will have a plague.)

[Seign Thelas]

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....
