The Spirit of Man - Part 2: Brave New World! Sign up thread

[Celticfury]

I am still in. Viva la Mexico!

 

[Ailedhoo]

Forgive me for my lack of a sign up thingy on this thread: alas I have been diverted.

I had mistakenly thought it was a case of saying "we here" in links to the sign up back in Part 2's first occurrence.

In any rate I give permission for me to be exiled from this game on grounds of failing to sign up and letting IOT down.

What ever the case I will not be able to give a grand response today due to volunteering I am doing on Wednesday; if I do have a chance to make up I will attempt tonight if possible. However I will understand if the liberty of rejecting me that I am providing is used; I am providing it because I am very, very sorry for RC and for Imperium Offtopicum in general. It deserves betters and I will hence promise to improve myself from this day forward.

If I do end up in the game I will using this for my sign up.

Again: I am giving the right to be rejected. This game will be magical and I would wish to be in it but my failures are present and have to be accounted for.

If I do end up in game... PREPARE TO KEEP OUT OR BE KICKED OUT OF EGYPT, IMPERIAL SWINES!

Using the exact same sign up as last time is fine. All I ask is that people add a couple of lines in their history explaining what happened in the 10 year gap.

With provinces all having individual stats the update is taking some time. I currently have Europe and Africa finished and I'm about half war through Asia. I don't think I'll give an ETA until i'm sure how long this is going to take.

Good to know you're still working on it. Keep up the good work.

Hey, ah, where are the rules and the previous thread? I'm looking back to get back into IOT, i'd like a basic idea of where my nation is coming from, and how this particular game is played.

 

[Robert Can't]

Well as of yet the full rule set we'll be using hasn't be posted in a single location but it is basically the same as the first try at The Spirit of Man Part 2 apart from the changes noted in the DDs.

The Original Classic: Imperium OffTopicum: The Spirit of Man
The Failed 2nd Part: The Spirit of Man II - Brave New World

DD on Economy, Spending and Factions
Explanation of Leadership and Army Strength

10 years under a revolutionary government; Egypt has strived on despite the efforts of those who not wish to recognise it or wish it to exist as an independent state, especially one leaded by a challenge to the imperial mood of international relations. Under Hatim Tawfeek Egypt begin a process of its own industrialisation while at the same time warding off imperial attempts to end independence via the establishing of the arms forces to maximum effect and economic attempts to influence its way to keep guard of the Islamic democracy. Resisting the Birmingham Trade League the Federal United Republic of Egypt saw Tawfeek after his terms succeeded by Wadud Mustafa.

Alas domestic disturbance, not foreign affairs, would be the most notable blow to Egypt, as while the nation has peaceful established the rise of the Burning Blade of the Pius leaded to other groups, such as the pro-Western Glorius Civilized Guardians and the republic’s own defence force the Islamic Republican Guard. The True Warriors of Islam’s formation in response to the moderate nature of the Burning Blade had triggered the rise of the pacifist Islamic Army of Peace in response. Alas in the rise of this chaos a young Tahmid Arian would shoot Mustafa fatally, with Arian caught and beaten to death by members of the Islamic Republican Guard.

With Wadud Mustafa’s assassination his emergency replacement, Abdur-Rashid El-Ghazzeway, faces great challenges. Egypt has to be cleanse of the violence that has risen in frustration to the Burning Blade, whose presence has proved a plague upon all houses. Yet Egypt is not a land of violence as the BTL might dictate; much of the nation is in order, with the violence restricted in few areas and even the Republican Guard facing the wroth of the Egyptian Army. Yet the domestic issues will, like the foreign issues, have to be shorted if Wadud Mustafa is not only to lead Egypt to be recognised as a sovereign nation but also to ensure he earns a election victory.

Trait: Spirit of the Revolution: the Egyptians are determent to defend their revolution and to guard it to the death. While this means a morally powerful defence that would be willing to stand before giants like David it also means that groups like the Burning Blade of the Pius exist and hence a steadiness must be performed to ensure that the moral union against those who question Egypt's sovereignty does not turn on itself.
