Ummm... enjoy?

Spoiler Napoleonic IRCNES Updates 1-4 :

[15:26] <flyingchicken> Update 1: The French, under the military genius Napoleon, invade the German states! The Dictate supports him vehemently while plotting his downfall. (few casualties for france, lots of casualties for German states); Britain reacts by forming an alliance with Hannover and brings the Royal Navy to blockade the French ports. (France gets less income, therefore less reinforcements). Austria reacts by declaring war on France. Prussia is neutral but is mobilizing troops. The Russians are experiencing technical difficulties.

...​

[15:32] <flyingchicken> Update 2: French crush revolts with extreme measures. German states are losing confidence in their partisan commanders. (more control in German states for France). Austria attacks! The back flanks of the French armies are backstabbed by the Austrians as they move into the Netherlands! The Dutch hold their own as the Prussians come into their aid! Napoleon is doing his best, and is fighting as well as any genius general. (equally harsh casualties for all, France not captured Dutch fleet yet, heavy fighting)

...​

[15:38] <flyingchicken> Update 3: French conscripts flood into the German states region of Southern Germany under the command of one of Napoleon's cousins! They hold the French hold the Austrians there for a while as napoleon continues his bloody campaign against the Netherlands. The Prussians are held back for long enough for the French to capture much of the Dutch fleet, which was engaged by the British in a quick fight! The Dutch-then-French fleet is captured by the Royal navy! The Prussian mass mobilization brings forth new recruiits to fight the napoleonic meance, and France is pushed back from the Netherlands. Napoleon's army is exhausted, but it is still a formidable force. Russians gain land at the expense of Prussia, mass discontent and protesting in the German state! (conscripts take heavy casualties, Austria too, also Prussia, Napoleon's army, Russia is getting bigger_

...​

[15:49] <flyingchicken> UPDATE 4: The French build up their Grande Frenche Fleet, at the expense of the ground forces being supplied to Napoleon! This comes as very distressing news for Napoleon, but he soldiers on. The Royal Navy is engaged! Battle in the high seas between the new French fleet and the abominally large British fleet leads to a round-and-round battle around the English channel. Though th Brits are ultimately victorious, this came at a greivous price for the Brits (-Brit confidence on a war against France, heavy sea casualties). Prussia calls for allies! It is rebuffed by Spain, but the Ottomans send troops to Marsailles. The Prussians also continue their advance through the netherlands, liberating the country bit by bit. The Austrians and the French are reduced to a stalemate, but since the Austrians weren't busy building a navy they have enough men to push a few more kilometers through! The Russians invade Austria! The Ottomans help the Austrians. Europe is a bloody battlefield now (fights everywhere, Fracne is losing a bit, Russia is rogue, casualties everywhere)

Ended. Luckymoose had to sleep and Masada proceeded to do better things.

And thus, Lord Iggy's plan has succeeded.

[~Darkening~]

Mhm- For the record, yes I know that I am being OOC. Please don't try to point that (obvious) point out as I don't feel really feel like phrasing this is such a nice way.

Why is it so difficult to believe that Guangfei isn't merely helping out civilization?

Because this alex we're talking about. He doesn't go right out and do something (at least not in LINES) without having a very good reason.

we know it exists. Let's not debate that, at least.

Thats the problem- you know what you're going up against, along with three other players (Valins, Guangfei, and Zamdar). The rest are being left in the dark considering this whole army thing, and I'm not sure whether I should be preparing or not, especially considering a very few select comments.

Veritas seconds Achostai's (pseudo OOC) objections.

Seconding it while ignoring it?

Only Guangfei and the Citadel know of the Others, so it's OOC to mention them as an objection

You're joking right? Turtlemen suddenly come up out of the woodwork and visit in a nation as large as Guangfei, and you expect it to stay there? haven't you heard of mankind's greatest ability- gossiping? The news of the Turtlemen would have been spread far and wide as soon as they set foot inside a city.

There's a massive army bent on destroying all civilization, with hyperadvanced weaponry. I think that's a pretty damn good reason.

What exactly do you think we know that you don't know?

No, I'm going by what Iggy and jal told me.

WW2 IRCNES update log:

1936: POLAND DECLARES WAR! In a stunning move, Poland delcares waro n the Baltic state of Lithuania. Polish troops are mobilized into the Poland-Lithuania border as tensions rise. The UK is condemning the Polish actions as evil and completely insane (Poland is at war with Lithuania). Germans reclaim the Rhineland! In addition to the Polish aggression, Adolf Hitler led his country to remilitarize the demilitarized zone of the Rhineland. The allied powers are worried about this but they are impotent and suck. Except for France. FRANCE MOVES INTO SPAIN! In a stunningly aggressive move, the Republic of France under that Social Democrat guy invaded Spain. The Spanish Nationalists have declared war on the Republicans after seceding, and are now asking the people to fight against France. (France -5 army, Spain -7 army, -Spain, +Fascist Spain).

We were only able to churn out one update because some people quit prematurely and one of the two players lost interest (because there were too few players!).

[Azale]

It's probably bunk. 99.9999999%

I don't deal in absolutes

 

[Shadowbound]

It's been debunked. The dna sample was actually two different samples, one human, one possum.
