A wave of uneasiness sweeps Europe as the 19th century dawns. An artillery officer has risen to the throne of France, his power aping that of the very people he overthrew, while in India a British general is making a name for himself.
Years later, these two shall meet on the battlefield of Waterloo, where the Emperor's dreams will be shattered.
In the east, the Romanovs struggle to maintain power in Russia, assassination attempts becoming almost daily. In Prussia, the new order is uncertain, and in Italy the small states quarrel, ignoring the word of the Pope, who they are supposed to pay homage to.
The Austro-Hungarian Empire of the Hapsburgs struggle for dominance of an increasingly separatist Balkan region with the Turkish, while in Sweden hopes are high for a return to the glorious years of Peter the Great.
In Spain, the Moors are long gone, Castile and Aragon united, but the rulers have much to prove, while in the sands of El Alamein the Moors gather their strength, and could prove strong enough to once again bring their faith to Europe.
These are uncertain times, and it seems almost inevitable that the fate of these rulers will be forged in the flames of war...
Welcome to UKNES3 Reloaded: Forged in the Flames of War...
This NES will be fairly simple, following the ruleset of UKNES3, with a few streamlined rules. Please read the few rules below, and then join only if you are able to send orders every two days.
Provinces and Starting
The coloured provinces are the starting locations for each country. You may choose one of these to start.
Each province is worth 1 gold to begin with, and you start with 3 gold in the bank, giving you a grand total of 4 gold to spend on your first turn. To take over a province, simply move an army into it (this also happens against other nations. Move an army into an undefended province and it becomes yours. If there are defenders, you can attack, and if you win the battle, it becomes yours.)
To upgrade the amount a province gives you, you can buy the following upgrades:
Town - costs 3 gold and increases income to 2 gold from the province it is built in
City - costs 5 gold, can only be built AFTER a town has been built in that province, and increases the income to 3 gold from that province
Barracks and Ports
Barracks and ports must be built to be able to produce armies or fleets. Your starting province contains a barracks to begin with. To build a barracks or port in a province costs 3 gold.
Building Armies and Fleets
There are only two units in this game - armies and fleets. Armies cost 2 gold to build, fleets cost 3. They can only be built in provinces that are capable of building them - ie; a province must contain a port to be able to build a fleet, or a barracks to be able to build an army. Fleets are placed in the sea adjacent to a province. If more than one sea is adjacent to the province, the player can decide which.
Armies and fleets can move the turn they are built, but they CANNOT attack. If they are attacked, they will of course defend themselves (so yes, if you see an invasion fleet two seas away, you can build a fleet, move it to the sea adjacent to the invasion fleet, and let them attack you so that you get to fight them that turn rather than the next).
Armies CAN annex provinces the turn they are built, unless they are annexing another player's territory. If two units try to annex the same province, they will fight unless told not to.
Armies and fleets can only move one province or sea a turn.
Armies and fleets, when above the number of provinces you have, cost you 1 gold per army or fleet more in number than you have number of provinces (ie; 3 provinces, 1 fleet and 3 armies, you would pay 1 gold upkeep). This is already deducted from your income per turn.
Sea Invasions
Embarking upon a fleet costs an army its move for that turn, as does disembarking. These do not affect the movement of the fleet.
An example: You have an army in Iceland you wish to invade Normandy with. Your army takes its turn to embark the fleet, the fleet uses its move to move down to the sea adjacent to Normandy, and the next turn your army uses its turn to disembark and attack Normandy. The fleet is free to move again as it hasn't used the second turn's movement point.
You can load a maximum of four armies onto a fleet.
Combat System
Orders and Updates
Orders are sent via PM to me (time to clear out my inbox lol). Updates will hopefully occur every two days, time allowing.
Map
Barracks are shown by white squares with black borders. Ports are shown by black squares with white borders.
Towns are shown by white circles with black borders. Cities are shown by black circles with white borders.
Armies are shown by small black or white squares on a province, while five armies in one province are shown by one big black or white square.
Fleets are shown by small squares in your country's colour in a sea, while five fleets are shown by one big square in your country's colour.
Armies on board a fleet are shown by little black squares on the corners of the fleet, or by big black squares on the corners of a big square that represents five fleets in the event of a massive invasion fleet!
Anyway ignore this and look at the map lol, you'll soon get it...
