ZPNESV: Flowers on the Razor Wire (World Conquest)

Iggy, Thlayli, I still haven't received an answer to my PM. I hope you guys read it.

Orders coming.
 
1954
War Without End

It is the turn of the Duckistani forces to advance unchecked across northwest Asia. There is only sporadic fighting in the middle east and western Europe. It seems that vast armies are building up for the final showdown.

Doctrines

Eurasian Alliance (Duckistani Empire, ?) has the following:

Spoiler :
Spoiler Doctrine: Requisition :

Effects:
  • Receive a one-time +$8 bonus when first implemented (but not if this doctrine is shared from an ally). This bonus can be spent immediately.
  • Receive +$2 bonus for every successful battle that involves land units on both sides, offensive or defensive. If multiple allies are involved, this bonus only goes to one faction.

Spoiler Doctrine: Intelligence :

Effects:
  • target any one territory per turn, can include sea zones and enemy capitols.
  • on a dice roll of 2 or more, you get a +1 strength bonus against all enemy forces there during the turn.
  • on a dice roll of 5 or 6, you get a +2 strength bonus against all enemy forces there during the turn.
  • allies will share this information. If multiple allies use this on the same territory, the bonus is not cumulative, however the highest bonus will be used for all.
  • if left unused, you will automatically roll to cancel out any enemy intelligence efforts in your territory or adjacent sea zones.

Spoiler Doctrine: Combined Arms :
(newly implemented by Duckistan. Now available to Khilāfat Qurṭuba)
Effects:
  • any battle involving your foot soldiers, tanks/vehicles and aircraft together (foot, mechanised and air ALL needed) will gain +1 strength for all units. Allied units have their own command structure and do not count towards this!
  • if triggered, and on a dice roll (at the start of combat) of 5 or 6, you gain a +2 strength bonus instead.
  • these bonuses will apply for every following combat round, regardless of losses or retreats.

Spoiler Doctrine: Airpower :

Effects:
  • all air units have +1 maximum range compared to normal, and +1 strength when fighting within their normal (original) range.
  • helicopters receive no bonus from this.

Trans-Oceanic Alliance (Technocrats, Iron Fascists, Union of Soviet Socialist Belki, COBRA, People's Republic, Afrikaan Forces Suud, Shogunate of Great Honshu, New Zealand) has the following:

Spoiler :
Spoiler Doctrine: Requisition :
(newly implemented by Duckistan. Now available to Khilāfat Qurṭuba)
Effects:
  • Receive a one-time +$8 bonus when first implemented (but not if this doctrine is shared from an ally). This bonus can be spent immediately.

Spoiler Doctrine: Airpower :

Effects:
  • all air units have +1 maximum range compared to normal, and +1 strength when fighting within their normal (original) range.
  • helicopters receive no bonus from this.

Spoiler Doctrine: Guerrilla Warfare :

Effects:
  • you can build militia for $2.
  • infantry can morph into militia at will. They cannot morph back to infantry, however.
  • although militia have Strength 0, they gain a saving throw of Hide: 3. This means, on a saving roll of 1 to 3, they will not be destroyed, but will inflitrate/lurk in the territory till next turn, without contesting control of the territory.
  • instead of attacking normally, militia can optionally sabotage an enemy city/factory. A roll of 6 is success (or 5+ if the militia begins the turn already in the target territory), but a roll of 1 is being automatically caught and destroyed. Each militia gets a separate roll for this and it takes place before normal combat.
  • if an enemy territory is attacked (by non-militia ground units) while already infiltrated by allied militia at the start of the turn, all enemy defenders suffer a -1 strength penalty.
  • when you lose a territory, you will gain random (one dice roll, divided by 2 if not your capitol, rounded up) militia infiltrators behind enemy lines, provided the territory has been held for two consecutive turns.

Duckistani Empire: King Tank perfected!

Map



Diplomacy

From: Khilāfat Liberation Army
To: COBRA

'Please hand over Gallicia to us and leave us in peace, brother.'

From: Gran Colombians
To: Technofacists

'We ask you to release the independent republic of Venezuela-Amazonia-Peruvia. If you do this, we will remain your loyal allies.'

Notes

Duckistani base income is $33
Combined Oceanic base income is $90 according to my calculations.

Perhaps its time to end this, maybe have a massively abstracted final turn where things you buy can be used straight away, etc?

Turn #20 is a nice number to end on, just like the NEB1 game :)
 
Lurker Speaking: Massive Battles Ahead! Winner Takes All!:)

I agree that 20 turn is a great number to end on, mostly cause the game will be decided next turn unless those armies keep on stalling.
 
I want to see the destruction of Duckistan and the division of Eurasia. Correction...I MUST see it!

Also...why does it seem like Duckistan always steals my tank designs? :mad:
 
To the General of Duckistan
From your loyal advisor

I suggest that you or send in infantry to your 'Homeland.' to fend off the rebelion.

I also advise to persue a slighty more mixed arms strategy. I find that a good ratio is of 3 heavy tanks to every 10 light, Kings can be subed for heavies, and mediums for light.

Military Suggestions: Persia needs reinforcements, the Asian Coast need more fighters and a slightly stronger navy, but safe for now if raids are carried upon Japan.

Outflank kar with tanks and fighters, and reinforce Siber and AS with Novogradian recuits!

Finally, these territories currently can be easily overrun: Great Arabia, Adriatia, others need decive battle.

BTW, learn to recuit infantry in the cities, full of recuits, and the tanks in the Factories behind the lines. This lets us to use combined arms formations.
 
Update was fantastic. 2-3 more turns and we should have this thing fully wrapped up. I think we'd all like to finish using conventional means. I'm assuming I have 17$ as per the map as opposed to 13$ as per the accounting tally.

Also...overeager allies much? :p
 
From: Commanding Officer, Britannic Revolutionary Armies
To: The Oceanic Alliance

Victory is at hand. But we cannot let our victory degenerate into a new era of border wars and petty squabbles. We cannot risk the rise of a new Duckistan, and yet another epoch of grueling war that sweeps across our planet with ever more terrifying weapons. In order to secure peace, we must establish a global doctrine of overwhelming strength. But we must allow the free expression of regional interests under our broad global banner. A federation, of sorts, to link us all as members of the human race.

There is only one solution to end war for all time: World Government. We propose the immediate combination of all Oceanic Alliance command structures, units, into a combined global army.

We must abandon our petty regional interests, or be forced to repeat the mistakes of the past. Let us establish a Global Technowealth of Nations, to unite humanity under the iron fist of absolute freedom. A cooperative government of civilian and military leaders, headquartered at a capital chosen by global referendum, shall bring peace to our planet for all time.
 
The Grand Technofascist Union of the Americas applauds this forward thought. Upon the defeat of Duckistan, the last enemy of the Trans-Oceanic peoples of the world, we shall merge our command structures into a single, unprecedented union.

From: Comrade Squylanov, Leader of the Soyuz Sovetskikh Sotsialisticheskikh Belki
To: The Oceanic Alliance

We agree with this wholeheartedly. The rise of another evil menace like the Duckistanis would be a travesty for this planet and all it's inhabitants and we must prevent that from happening. However, we suggest that each nation which is to form the Global Technowealth of Nations first establish order in their lands and divided territories. Once this is done, we can merge into one beautiful, hegemonic entity.
 
I'm completely fine with ending this next turn, Daft. There's no point in drawing it out much longer than it already has been.

When do you want next orders by?

Bil, give us unconditional surrender and we can end this right now.
