    Sign me up for hosting assistant if you need help with the writeups. To be fair, you have to just give me the results, I can't determine them myself.

    That was what I was thinking when I asked for sub hosts. Ok then.

    I will go with Iran.

    I believe this is the beginning of the Islamic Republic of Iran, and in the time-frame of Iranian-Iraqi war and disagreements with the Afghanistan Taliban. All sorts of various events during this time period.

    Unless some one who is Iranian wants to take over, I will allow them priority.

    How much are we going to follow history and the alliances in place at that time? I am aware that once the game starts we will be changing the course of history, but will we basing ourselves on all the previous events during the Cold War and the current crisises and wars in 1980?

    Having majored in history and minored in international relations, I am very interested in this.

    If pever really wants Italy he can have it, and I'll take Turkey. If he doesn't then I'll take Italy.

    Italy, Turkey, UK Yugoslavia, USSR.

    From most wanted to the least.

    Cool store, bro! I want some ham.
    No ham, pepsi.
    They make deli slices of frozen pepsi now? Awesome!
    You also need to purchase a small freezer for storage of your pepsi.
    It runs on batteries. You'll need a few.
    Uhh, I guess I won't have pepsi then. Do you have change for a twenty?

    Having majored in history and minored in international relations, I am very interested in this.
    The main 4 alliances will be Nato, the countries that have been persuaded not to becomne communist or being supported by a nato faction, Warsaw pact and other russian allies and their supporters.
    The main game will be each side trying to convert undecided nations and destroy or cripple any active supporters of the other side while using espionage, sabotage, assassination, coup attempts and generaly terror to make the enemy weak enough so that you can win should Defcom 2 ever be declared. But that will be if neither side is willing to go on allout warfare over europe and alaska staright away and risk nuclear holocaust.
