HarlNESIII - The Decline of France

Bah **** it, i think this is being totally clique so i'll forget about it. I might crop up elsewhere but i really would have enjoyed Russia.

If HQ's policy is first come first served, then you'll have it. I would recommend waiting for the mod's decision first before getting fed up with the system. Mayhaps this can be your first major power experience? After all, most experienced NESers had to get their feet wet in a powerful power before getting used to it (although I personally perfer building up minor powers into great powers)
 
As Contempt said, its experience. In most cases it is best if a great power is ran by an experienced NESer; still, it is between you two in the end. As a compromise variant I'd like to propose... a civil war! After all, a Decembrist uprising equivalent seems to have occured, so Nicholas' powerbase is probably still rather shaky, while there still are some secret societies out there...

I rooted them out last turn with my secreat police. Contempt I can you my previous turn order if you want so you get an idea of where I was going.

Oh and Russia is mildly democratic not quite the iron fisted monarchy. And Russia's army sucks that can't be changed without large amounts of money. And I mean massive.
 
mildly democratic

You mean the Senate? Its kinda powerless, you know.

I mean the Duma. I instituted them last turn. They are elected...but the elections are heavily..how shall you say..rigged?
 
You do realise that the Senate is/was the Duma renamed and cosmetically changed, right? :p

Don't tell me you abolished serfdom as well. ;)

Hmm....for some reason I have both an Senate and a Duma. I'm not entirely sure why....damn wikipedia.

Nah I oppressed them some more.
 
Fair enough, its alright then; I was afraid you'd go on a social reform spree like you usually do. Do the nobles get to vote for their serfs as well as for themselves? :p
 
Due to it seeming a large part of my orders were ignored and Im already playing an Argentina in another NES that has much more potential, I'll be dropping.

I was about to but I decided to take it gradually.
 
I think Abaddon has first right to it, but Contempt has as much right to start a civil war if he wants to :p Considering it's Russia, basically any point in it's history (save most of the USSR period) it's ok to start a rebellion ;)

Since when do noobs know which NESes have potential?
 
I meant my other country has much more potential, not this NES. Probably should have been worded "An Argentina with alot more potential in another NES" but whatever. And please dont call me a noob as I have been NESing a while now, just not very often.

And Luckymoose, again part of the reason I am quitting. My orders just didnt seem to be read that well which lead to things I didnt want. I'd rather not argue it and am just going to drop.
 
To: The United Provinces
From: Spain

In these increasingly dangerous times, it is good to have friends. Both of us have colonial empires. Perhaps we could sign a defensive pact

OOC:
 
To the United States of America
From the Empire of Mexico

We would like to form a non-aggression pact with your nation and look towards ways that the governments of Washington and Mexico City can co-operate and work towards a greater place for the Americas in world affairs.
 
Sheep, are you high? I'm Mexico!!! It says so in the stats and i reserved it before you did!
