Historical RP restart

We should restart here. But first let us make sure everyone understands the rules. We began the other one without understanding and Italy managed to seize swathes of land in minutes without everyone understanding. We need a turn system otherwise it doesn't work so debate it here and when everyone is happy we'll start again.

While I appreciate the idea, and the game does need fine-tuning, I don't support a restart.

Mainly not because it would take away Italian territory I've just gained() but because what you're suggesting with turns and whatnot will add SO FREAKING MUCH RED TAPE!!! Look at our NATO vs. Warsaw game, I haven't been able to liberate the world because you didn't respond for 3 weeks. You know?

I have an alternative proposition, instead of turns, we make actions daily, so you can invade a territory once daily, roll for troops once daily etc... I do not particularly like it because it still adds too much unnecessary red tape, but it is far better then turns.

But for now, I'm unlocking the other threads, we'll continue playing until we agree on a restart or we add to the current game.

I vote no on this restart I do agree with New Roosevelt here. However if things get to slow we may need some sort of revision of the way to play. Maybe if everyone makes an action in one day we can start again after that. It isnt turns but it still allows for everyone to play in the course of a day and still perhaps allow for further work to be done that day.

I like the one action a day thing but I do think we need to restart, only from the start of free play but it must be done.

Perhaps. I see your point. Umm... We could do that. I want to hear what the others think though.

Yes, I'll approve a restart if a few others think it should be restarted.

The One action a day seems like the plan.

Yes. Well in the meantime let us get back to the NS2 RP until we get this situation done.

Well this won't come as much of a surprise, but I'm going to say that NR's plan is best. We keep playing, just add this new rule to the game.

I think what everyone is forgetting about is that this is going to be a long game(the historical rp) think about it! We're just starting with WW1, we've got big events like Russian Civil War, Spanish Civil War, WW2, Korean War, Vietnam War, Cuban Revolution, Soviet War in Afghanistan...etc... And I gather that we'll be adding our own events in here too. So I don't understand the big deal if Italy took over an extra few territories, we've got a lot of gameplay left before this game is over. And I really think it's pointless because if we keep this up, we'll never get to the end of WW1 let alone the game


I say we keep playing with the new one invasion a day, AS A TEST RUN!!!! But, does the one action a day include the rolling for more men, if so, you don't have my support on this.

Alright, so I've been thinking, and I realize that the Historical world map RP was never really ready to start. But I think I've figured it out...










It's big I know, let me know if you can't see it all. But I'm down for the restart with one action a day. But we need different theaters of the game, or else everyone is going to get really bored really quick. So the RPA official and the historical aid can figure out different places where fighting can ensue that does NOT follow history. And then there will be times when multiple events are occurring WW2 in europe and WW2 in the pacific. So we need further planning of this.

But the map you see above can be looked better at via this!

(If the link doesn't work, let me know)

A link to the picture on my photobucket account. So the Empires are going to be needed to be incorporated, perhaps we have an African theatre for more gameplay in WW1 and then we create some hard core action in South America. Who knows, but I do know that if we stay in europe only with only one action a day, people are going to stop playing...


I've tried to make the empires as realistic as they were in the early 1900's, I know Gracania as Britain has basically the entire map, but the British Empire at one point covered 1/3 of the globe's land mass... Scary. And what we can do later on is break up the territories, much like the Allies did after WW2, and form new countries. So Rhodesia can become, Egypt, Sudan, Kenya, South Africa... etc... And French Indochina can become Vietnam, Laos, Cambodia. You get the picture.

So let's keep these thoughts going, anyone?

Ok, I have no idea what that map is supposed to represent.

It's the most confusing thing I've ever seen.

Germany controlled Namibia, Taganika and part of Cameroon, and the Northern part of New Guinea.

Laughs. Yeah its supposed to be representing the empires. I know for a fact though that germany had colonies on the african coast, because they were able to almost cut Rhodesia in two separate areas, which was Bismarck's plan to begin with.

I'm also confused as to how Italy turned up in Southern Africa, rather than Somalia, and why Austria-Hungary has a colony. That is probably good for fairness, though.

Well I don't think they took the Somailiand until later, but if they did I'll fix it up.


And yes, Austria was given it out of fairness. Honestly, look at the size of the British Empire, we'll need to figure out a way to make the game somewhat fair throughout WW1 before the empire releases some of it's countries...

The map is a monstrosity. I can probably fix it up whilst keeping some form of historical realism.

Laughs. Don't see how its a monstrosity, but ok. Laughs. Be my guess. It's the map that Lynneth uses for the AoSS.

I know I've got a lot already but what about Canada? They're still part of HRH's domain (the queen is the head of state)

I will play as the Dominion of Canada

Laughs, V.


You're a little late to this party. This alliance died about a month ago...

about two weeks by my reckoning lol. Thought I would snoop, see if there was anything I could pick up lol.

Laughs. Yep. It all kinda happened cause we just started the Historical World Map RP, then the admin closed it because he didn't like the way it was going. Laughs.

Not true. It just wasn't working properly. We started before it was ready, it was a safety issue

Doesn't really matter. It died. And it died after you closed it.
