Second Epic War

[Tambien]

Recently spam has increased in CIV S&T, most of it related to the Second Epic War. So, I have tried to create a Forum Game that will help relieve some of that pressure.

~~~

Backstory

Spoiler :

The First Epic War spread across the planet Ceefcee like lightning. The neutral nation of Civfoursandt was quickly overrun by the forces of the Empire of Thanyou and the Imperium of Tambien. The fighting continued for many long years until the nation of Yoshiegg managed to broker a peace. The nations would withdraw to their pre-war borders and send aid to Civfoursandt so that it could recover.

However, the underlying tensions still existed. They reemerged 40 years later when the Imperium of Tambien annexed some of the northern lands of Civfoursandt. The Empire of Thanyou quickly called out Tambien for its actions, while annexing some of Civfoursandt's southern lands. War quickly errupted. Lelouchia quickly jumped in, and it began to build up for war.

The War has just begun, and the scale is quickly escalating.

Rules

Spoiler :

Each nation will have the following stats:
Status: Peace/CeaseFire/War
Armies/Navies/Airforce: #A/#N/#AF
Territories: #T
Generals:
List of Generals declared part of the War by this nation. If at peace this stat does not apply.

Each provinces provides 1 EP (Economic Point, or Epic Point if you wish) which are used to build military units.

Each type costs 1 EP for 5.

Armies are the only ones that can conquer anything. Navies and Airforces help soften up defenses or carry around soldiers.

At the begining of each turn each nation involved in the war must post orders. These might include building orders, trade offers, or anything else. However, if a nation is involved in the War it MUST include attack orders. (Ceasefire does not count as War) These can be as fancy or as simple as you like, but MUST be a map of some sort.

Attack orders MUST include the # of troops you are sending to a certain province.

You may attack 10 provinces per turn.

Attack orders can be changed, but you MUST post finalized orders before the turn can end.

At this point you are probably are thinking this is a glorified IOT, right? WRONG! You, the Forum Gamers, will decide the outcome of the attacks based on the Roleplay quality, and just who you plain like better.

10 people vote on the outcome of the attacks. For every Yes vote one province is gained by the attacker. For every No vote one is not gained.When voting specify WHICH province that do/don't get. Also specify how many troops are lost (on BOTH sides). Any commentary on the battle is appreciated.

Votes will be called by me.

If anything here isn't clear, or you have an idea on how to improve the rules, just say so! Preferably here, but VM and PM work as well.

We have some nations that need to be led! If you want to lead one then feel free to post. "[Name] taking over [nation]."

 

[Lelouch]

If I can, I'll change my empire's name to The Holy Brittanian Empire.
EDIT: when do we start?

 

[Yoshiegg737]

I like how I get dragged into this despite not really doing anything

Joining. I claim the Yoshiegg Empire

 

[Tambien]

@Lelouch: No. Sorry, but I want to keep this as simple as possible.

@Yoshi: I needed SOMEONE to explain the peace, don't I?

 

[Lelouch]

darn

 

[Omega124]

No Untied Federation of Snapir. Incrediblly illegit.

 

[Gem Hound]

Rethink. Not joining.

 

[Tambien]

Yep... well..... I guess that means TAMBIEN CONQUERED TEH WORLD!!!!!!
I iz more Epic.

 

[Lelouch]

No way read my sig!

 

[Tambien]

You LIE!!!!!!!!

 

[Lelouch]

I do not lie! All hail lelouch! All hail lelouch!

 

[Dumanios]

Is there any chance I can be rebels in the Thanyou Empire?

 

[trexeric]

Perhaps I could establish myself as a trading port in a small district near the sea? If so:

Port of Trexeric
Status: Peace
Armies/Navies/Airforce: 100/200/25
Territories: 1

 

[SouthernKing]

No nation for me? BLASPHEMY!

 

[Yoshiegg737]

Without METY, this game has no use

 

[Tambien]

For without him, whom is there to conquer, destory, and utterly rape argue with?

 

[Dhoomstriker]

Dhoom enters the fray as Civfoursandt. In a cunning and swift move, Dhoom intimidates MoreEpic sufficiently that MoreEpic immediately capitulates to Dhoom. Dhoom then signs a Cease Fire with Tambien, forcing a peace, although potentially fleeting, between the two world powers.

Next, Dhoom, along with his Vassal MoreEpic, declares war on Civfivesandt. MoreEpic sacrifices 1/5th of his air power and 1/4 of his navy to completely decimate Civfivesandt's forces, then uses his Bombers and Frigates to pound the life out of Civfivesandt's armies. Dhoom then swoops in for the kill, taking credit for the capture of Civfivesandt's 20 territories and all without losing a single unit. Thanks, MoreEpic.

Suddently, Dhoom is a world power all of his own, with 30 territories and a willing Vassal. (Please update the stats. You guys had your chances to make moves on that turn but you chose not to. Now it's the next turn... and at least a temporary peace has been achieved...)

But, questions arise... will the peace with Tambien's empire last, and if so, for how long? Will MoreEpic use his greater land size and population to break away from the Master-Vassal relationship or will he continue to hide under Dhoom's shadow? And what of the other players? Will they challenge Dhoom or will they side with him? Only time (and further posts) will answer these questions.

 

[Yoshiegg737]

The Yoshiegg Empire joins the Trexeric port and make large amounts of money out of a fishing economy away from the madness

 

[SouthernKing]

The armies of the Southern Kingdom sail from a far continent on a mighty armada. Consisting of two divisions of two hundred thousand well equipped and well trained men each, one lands in the Yoshiegg Empire, the other on the eastern archipelago. They proceed to rampage all over the entire map, conquering every province easily.

 

[Dumanios]

Dumanios uses a Terror Star. The End.
