If WW3 explodes in 2017....

[Dachs]

That's like saying Burma is going to conquer East Asia in just nine years.

You underestimate the power of the Myanmar enlightened despotism...next thing you'll be saying crazy things like "Juche is bad for North Korea" and "Kyrgyzstan has no ability to overrun Central Asia and create a new steppe empire".

 

[Sharwood]

Oh come on, the situations of Kyrgyzstan and Myanmar are totally different. Myanmar has jungles. Kyrgyzstan doesn't. That means Kyrgyzstan is free to spend its money on its horse archers, whreas Burma needs to clear jungles to end disease. If you're going to post here, at least try to understand a little about geopolitics. Sheesh.

 

[Taras Bulba]

bahh.... too many teams

Team 1: US, UK, France, Germany, Spain, Italy, Turkey, Israel, most of South America, Australia, Japan, South Korea

Team 2: China, Russia, Serbia (although that's just mainly a chaos area), Venezuela, Cuba (maybe), Iran, North Korea, South East Asian Block, post-Soviet Middle East, some Eastern European nations, Sudan, and other civil wars break out in more unstable African nations

Moderator Action: Moved to OT.

 

[Perfection]

Team AWESOME STRIKE FORCE (Me, my loyal followers, and our Giant Death Robots)
VERSUS
Team GLOBAL HEGEMONY ESTABLISHMENT (the rest of the world)

 

[bender19]

Team 7 (team down under)
Australia

Since we weren't important enough to rate a mention in any other team.

But I concur with the other opinions, terrible thread with no a shread of realism.

This thread wasn't even worth the read...

Much of the world versus Russia.

 

[Winner]

Which countries will fight and what are the teams (can be more than 2)?

Assuming no nukes will be used, which team will triumph?

---------------------
My opinion:

Team 1: (Team Democracy)
US, England, Israel, Poland, former USSR satellites and others

Team 2: (Team Communism)
Russia, their satellites, Cuba, Venezuela and others (south American nations?)

Team 3: (Team Asians)
China, India, Japan and others

Team 4: (Team Romans)
France, Germany, Italy (merged into Roman Empire ), and other Europeans

Team 4: (Team Islam)
Iran, Turkey, Pakistan, Indonesia and other Muslim nations

Team 5: (Team Africans)
Zimbawae, South Africans and other African nations

Let me guess, you're an American...

Stop playing civ for a while. Go outside and walk around, and for God's sake, breathe some fresh air.

Outside is interesting and full of people. Let us stay here and fantasize about mass destruction.

I... don't think that's how it goes exactly...

And this thread is hilarious, but I must now go to sleep.
Team Bravo = Me and reincarnated Jesus. Oh, we will win... we will win.

 

[philippe]

Let me guess, you're an American...

i had the exact same thought;

 

[Tee Kay]

Team 6: (Team CFC)
Sark

 

[Abaddon]

Why 2017?

Team 6: (Team Penguins)
Antarctica

They would win hands down, they will be the only ones with old by then.

 

[GoodGame]

You need a cause of war, as that will create last minute fractures in relationships, as well as alliances of convenience.

For instance a free for all in Asia is just as possible as US+Asia taking on the EU+Russia. Just as possible is the EU+USA taking on Russia+middle east.

 

[Rashiminos]

Teams are incorrect, and the assumption about nukes is wrong.

 

[aronnax]

Actually a better thread would be, how WW3 would get started.

 

[Mowque]

maybe it is Laser Tag or something?

 

[Rashiminos]

Excess of weapons, lack of resources...

Kill an economy, start a revolution.

I'm embarrassed
