Nation Background:
Players, stories, orders, countries, NPCs, updates, map.
Players - no limit. Anybody can join.
Stories - not necessary, but very encouraged. Good story-writers would get bonuses based on their stories. In the immortal words of stalin006, storywriters get random events!. Or something like that.
Orders - orders in a list. Please, not only stat-based and military orders - I encourage innovative solutions of various problems, like attaching AT mines to dogs, removing swamps and rainforests in massive programs, making government reforms and many other such. Please be detailed do not give vauge orders. PM required.
Countries - pick a NPC, create your own (tell me where and tell me some details - ruler, brief history, culture - and I will give you the stats) or start a rebellion or demand for independence. Note that these are not bound to succeed. If your country is in dire straits, you can switch country or flee and establish a government in exile and lead the resistance movement. Also, please read your nation background, and dont act uncharacteristically for it.
If two or more players claim one nation and all of them really want it, they are encouraged to start a civil war and try to outrule the other players ruler.
NPCs - lol, considering theyre NPC, I will play them, kinda. Same as the NPCs in all other NESes of late but dont expect them to roll over just because theyre NPC. As Im the one playing them fear them (almost) as much as PCs!
Updates I will, set a date and deadline for orders and stuff so I can update.
Map - I will use Jasons - much as I would like to use NKs modification, but Im too lazy to draw the map again. Anyone is welcome to do that, though. I will put in cities (black circles), fortifications (line of black squares) and dissent areas (white area within nations). Some might want to know that a large light gray circle means a nuke. I know nothing about maps so help is requuired.
Government
Your nation needs a system by which is manages its people. This is your Government. You can have different types of Governments, and can invent your own (For Example, Monarchy Communism), but keep it realistic, please. They all have their advantages and disadvantage, and switching between them carries its risks/benefits. Please think it over when you swtich between Giovernment types, as it will have an effect, sometime irreversible.
Example types of Government:
Fundamentalism, Fascist Dictatorship, Communism, Democratic Communism, Totalitarian Communism, Monarchial Communism, Multiparty Democracy, Theocracy, Monarchy, Constitutional Monarchy, Parliamentary Monarchy, 2-Party Democracy, DemoFascism, FundoSocialism.
Different types of Governments, obviously, have different ways of doing things. Also, depending on your type of Government, companies might be more or less inclined to invest in your nation, and your citizens mood will be affected. Also, for some kinda of Governments, your action can be overuled by your Senate, or Parliament, or whatever you call your Legislative Representiative Body. Below is a brief run-down of various Government-tuypes, and how they work in this NES.
Democracy: This is what many consider the best type of Governemnt. It is transparent, iot is fairly effecient, and it truly represents the people. As we all know, this is the Government where the people choose their leaders. Most nations are democratic. You are generally in charge of things, you control the agenda, hows you spend the eco, to a certain extent. As with all Governments, the Congress or Parliament or Congress must pass your initiative into law. Same with this NES. Now, usually your Government goes along with you. Want to increase the military? Sure. Want to spend on industry? Sure. However, for decisions which are controversial, such as supporting a Fascist regime, , or invading another country, you must get your Parliament or Congress (me) to approve of the measure. If they don't, then the matter dies. If you commit irrational decisions, as I, and thus your Congress or parliament sees fit, then they can overrule you. I will rarely overrule your actions, unless it is totally irrational. Irrational decisions include changing your nation's name to something weird, or randomly joining a nation. Democracy comes in different forms. They range from Mutliparty Democracy to 2 Party Democracy to DemoCommunism to DemoFascist. They are all fairly self explanatory.
Fascism - In this system of Government, you have total control. You usually are kept in power by your Military, or Secret Police, like Hitler. Sometimes, your people hate you, but they are forced to be under your rule anyway. Other times, people love you, and flock to your side. Either way, you have total control. usually your population cannot and will not rebel, unless incited to, or aided by a foreign nation. If your Police or Military joins the people in rebelling, then you have usually done something very stupid, and, well, it's game overl. Gednerally, not many nations are Fascist. Fascism also uses heavy propaganda, which is usually effective.
Communism - We all know what Communism is. Game-wise, it works a bit like Fascism. You can be a severe Stalinist regime, or a more Liberal regime, verging on DemoCommunism. Your people generally won't like the propaganda and such, and you might need to rely on the military to keep you in power. Your people will generally not revolt unless you do something really stupid.
Fundamentalism - This is a very Religious Government type. The religion varies, but generally this is in a nation with its population being a large majority of one religion or another. One Supreme Leader, usually chosen by God, or so they think, is in control. Generally, the people are very supportive of the regime, unless you do stupid things. Your people can rebel, but it is rare. Religious Fervor keeps you in power.
Changing Government types is generally an unstable and difficult affair. It takes skill to do so, and will cause upheavel. Do so only when abolustely necessary.
Technology Level
Will use the age system. It is the same as in other NESes of other people, ofcourse the ages are not identical. You can always try to invent something that was invented later in OTL, or you can, if giving me a good reason why this should work within your current technocapabilities, invent something which was never invented. This begins in the Late Modern Age, and I know this isnt completely realistic, but I am quite sure some players will get into the next age absurdly quickly.
Early Modern Age: early tanks, early planes, machine guns, armored trains, heavy non-rocket artillery, grandships, U-boats, poison gas, outemperors.
Middle Modern Age: advanced tanks, advanced planes, mechanized infantry, rocket artillery, primitive nukes, space satellites, total wars, professional genocides and ruler impersonators. And whatever you people think off by then.
Late Modern Age: guided missiles, stealth planes, early robots, modern armor, ICBMs, advanced space programs, night-vision, Internet, NESes. See above.
[insert something about what the future holds here]
Military
That will, as of now, consist of army, navy and air wings. These will be number-based as it gives more versatility. These will be represented in divisions, ships and air wings respectively. In the future you can get
What will you have in it? Anything that is allowed by your tech. level! Infantry, cavalry, artillery, engineers - you name it. Each stat-growth will increase any part of military by 5.
Using advanced tactics and strategy is advised. If you just order attack enemy on the border with 10 divisions, I will think that you order me to launch a mere charge at the enemy. That might work, but rarely.
Mercenaries - if you pay 2 economy points, you will get 5 divisions of well-trained fighting men. They will be separated from your own battalions in the stats, and will leave after two turns, unless you pay them economy point. Yes, they are expensive, but they are quite worth the price. Btw, you can also hire mercenary ships that can also act as privateers.
Mobilization-Rather like Mobilization in all other Games. You can only spend your eco on military units and troops, but you get more of them. This is basically for going to war, and you get a bonus eco every turns while in mobilization. Like Conscription, this is not popular, and will lead to trouble if it goes on too far. Note that this and Martial Law are different.
Conscription-If you want, you can conscript your citizens into your army. Not that these conscripts will not be very well trained, basically just regular people in uniforms and with guns, and will be easily killled, and will run away if the going gets too tough. But, if you need troops, then, well, good cheap source. This will be VERY unpopular, and, if, you conscript too much, and for too long, your people get unhappy, your stability goes down, and you get civil unrest. Not that good Stories might help with that. Volunteers are like Conscripts, but they volunteered. They are still poorly trained, but very eger to defend against whomever is attacking, etc. Their morale, and spirit is higher then conscripts.
