West and east germany are their own factions and as far as I am aware vietnam was in one piece by 1980.

O this is just 1980s of the cold war?

[Askthepizzaguy]

1980 and beyond only.

China wants to announce that it prefers to tend to its own matters of state and does not wish to become a puppet of the Soviet regime or of the American Empire.

Just noticed something else Greyblades, you took out Afghanistan from my list of countries, does that mean it is unplayable?

[A Very Super Market]

Somalia wants to state that we've got your oil.

[Greyblades]

^ Huh, I thought they got their oil from the middle east, Texas and Venesuala.
@The flax: No just a typo, I'm going to look up afganistan's status in 1980 before I put it back up there though.

[Greyblades]

I looked it up, Afghanistan was invaded by Russia in 1979 so I would guess that you cant play Afghanistan unless you want to be an occupied nation with no military until 1989 or at least until you are liberated.

[TheFlax]

Afghanistan was occupied by the USSR in 1980, but they really didn't control the country at all. Russian troops mainly held the big cities and got bogged down in asymmetric warfare with various guerrilla factions.

In my mind it would be playable, but not as a standard country. Basically a player could control the opposition forces in the country and make appeals to other countries for help. Anyhow, its sort of moot since I'd much rather play Pakistan.

[Greyblades]

Technically its not moot seeing as it is a 50/50 chance between you and White eyes... So do you want heads or tails?

1980 and beyond only.

We long ago gave up our Imperialistic notions through conquest, thank you very much. And stop calling the Kettle black - You design to have as much or more influence in the world as either us or the USSR.

[White_eyes:D]

Fine......I well go with....whatever one that has not been claimed yet......(this is not very balanced, if people are claiming 100 countries and getting them.... I can understand supwerpowers like...USA or USSR...but most of middle east?????!!!)

[Greyblades]

100 countries? Mate there is only going to be 20 players with one country each. Allthough I guess I should have thought about the method of assigning countries some more.

[White_eyes:D]

Well....The Flax is getting Pakistan, Turkey and West Germany....WHY in the hell would Pakistan help NATO???? he should choose a nation in middle east again or just rename his country or something....I was thinking of only one country per player....otherwise it is a confusing mess....(unless someone helps host.....I can't...10-20 mins day is not enough time for this kind of thing)

[Greyblades]

Huh? They're the countries that he had a claim to. He's only getting Pakistan.
No I havent updated the tally.
