Epic IOT I- The War to End them All

[bestrfcplayer]

I DoW'ed because I wanted to pressure the United States to enter the war (thinking if they join Austria-Hungry I could reclaim the territories that I lost during the Mexican-America War). I also wanted to keep an eye on the other Latin American nations just in case they tried to do anything funny.

Ok, new colonial integration rules:

You can only integrate 1 colony a turn
It costs 10 CP
The colony being reformed doesn't do anything for that turn.

Hey, I had to put limits on it, or everyone would do it instantly.

Ok, new colonial integration rules:

You can only integrate 1 colony a turn
It costs 30 CP

lurker's comment: You might want to lower the cost.

Otherwise, there's no reason to integrate a colony.

An integrated territory generates only 1 LP per turn. A colony integrated in 1914 would take until 1944 to pay off integration costs. 5 CP and unlimited integration would mean it would take only five years to pay off (therefore still a costly investment but a better one than a 30 year investment that'll take 31 to pay off)

Also, a reminder that if you want to attack or defend, you have to tell me where you want to attack/defend.

Ninja'd by Sonoreal: I guess I'll change it to 10.

Well then. Cancel my integration. However, you might want to get the numbers for when I integrate Hawi'i and Alaska next turn.

Good luck with that.

And now, some RP

Referendum Held In Alaska and Hawi'i
Both Opt For Statehood

Sign Held By Supporters Of Hawi'ian Statehood​

Today the territories of Alaska and Hawi'i, by the order of President Tambien Tomphson, held a referendum on statehood. Alaska was below the required population levels, but Congress passed a bill promoted by President Tambien to waive the limits for Alaska's admission to the Union.

Regardless, both territories recieved a resounding YES from their populace. They are now in the process of writing state constitutions. Integration into the Union is not expected to take place for at least a year.

United States Says No To War
Announcement From the Whitehouse​

President Tomphson Tambien announced from the Whitehouse today that the United States of America would not participate in what he called "A meaningless and insane war between the nations of faraway Europe." When interviewed, most Congressmen, including Republicans and Democrats, agreed with the President.

Congressman Taylor Baxter (MOD, VA) said...

~~~

He stood watching the gleaming gray hull of the United States' newest battleship, the Washington. He held the bottle of champagne in his hand, and pulled his arm back. He swung it forward and hit the ship. It began sliding off of its dock, out into the ocean. As it steamed away, President Tambien Tomphson heard the crowd gathered below cheer....

And that ends my RP, for now...

ooc: METY, i thnk that you should balance the game becuase:

1) I dont like that territries= armies because even thought just 2 years before the start of the game the ottoman army was collapsing and the greek better and in 1914 the ottomans were collapsing, now if i declare war they will kick my ass because of their numbers.

2) 5 players took first the great powers and now all other players have to be a puppet state and can do nothing to change the situation. If i say anything against russia or england they will surely kick my ass, while in other IOTs all players start equal and have to have an ability and good role play to become superpowers but here even if yu are very good at IOT's you loose. There is no way for a player to do something on his own. For every action a player must ask those 5 players and if they dont agree you just do nothing.

My opinion:

Give the other players the ability to play 3 or more nations together or have stability.

I think you should make the economy be based off of an Industry system. Have regular provinces go towards direct CP, but Colonial provinces give you another type of spendable unit used to make different kinds of infrastructure. It would simulate economies of the era a little better, imo.

That's what I was thinking. I'm making a map right now of real 1914 borders and basing the rules off of Iron and Blood - a turn would = a month though starting in July 1914((Austria would not have declared war yet - but if you are Austria, think about how you would feel if the entire American Congress was suddenly assassinated and their replacements were also assassinated.))

There would be balancing issues of course but, I'm planning an industrial system, less provinces, ((Russia will have alot less - In this one they are extremely overpowered, just like the turks.)), random events, cities, and detailed war plans.

To Grece; Again WE ARE NOT giving up our Aegean holdings.

 

[christos200]

but you are illegaly occuping them. They should be given to Greece. They have greek population and you only took them over 5 years ago.

 

[christos200]

The greek civil war ended!!

Mr. Eleutherios Venizelos came to an agreement with king George I about a new more democratic constitution. Until the new constitution is complete he will be prime minister.

No. They were owned by the Ottoman Empire and they officially handed them along with Libya to us, we don't care that they have ethnic Greeks they are being treated fairly under our rule and even prospering, stop pestering us.

 

[Double A]

I don't know what's going on from a rules standpoint or in-game. I quit.

You try to kill all greeks their and you colonize italians there. Greece will declare war if you dont give up this islands.

I'm sure the Italian Armed forces will completely destroy the Greek one, but if you must, we can't guarantee that when we win we will be merciful.

 

[Tyo]

Yeah, not happening. Britain Declines.

 

[christos200]

We wont declare war but we dont recognise italian holdings in the agean sea.

ooc: Why you cant give up those small islands?

 

[christos200]

Yeah, not happening. Britain Declines.

official answear: We are realy sorry to hear that.

unofficial reaction of the king: F*ck you britain. Greece may not have the armies of england but at least greece has real men not some gay scums.
