Hello everyone :D

I'm back from Visby!!! It was awesome.

And i've just read through what happened in my absence and from what i can tell.... or what matters for me. F**k all has happened.

Gm's. When i calculated roughly how long the journey would take i looked at maps and real speeds of warships and ran some math. Although seeing how this RP is running along i have little clue as to how long time have passed.
So i wonder if i could somehow get somewhere faster than logically, or should i just come up with something of my own along the way.

Since 7 days travel would probably mean like a month or something IRL. And that's not overly interesting just sitting around. And you can do only so much with nothing.

Hmmm, i've got it. I suppose players are allowed to "use" other nations assets to enhance roleplay, right?
So i will do just that.
Let's start the rumor of the existence of what might be the most powerful vessel on the planet shall we? :P

I'll just PM the player whom owns the nation i am considering.

Edit: Also, how do you make those pretty radio messages? i can't seem to figure it out.

I think I'm gonna go ahead and post again. Objections?


Feel free to roleplay arriving in Murmansk however you like, if I have any objections I'll just let you know (not likely)

Edit: I just quoted what the person had before mine and got rid of everything except the message, then changed the message.

@mrambo90

Aight, quick question. Since you took over Japan, I assume you'll be taking over the pacific theatre. Should we discuss the likely ending to the war?

Before you took over, I was (can't stress this enough) going to do the historic events for the most part. The unfortunate end would be the loss of the naval war for japan.

That said, Are you ok sort of sticking to what I was doing, at least early on? I have decent portions of soon to occur naval battles written up already. I'm totally cool if you'd rather take immediate control over everything but I am just curious if i can still set certain events up.

I actually started writing midway last night. Did ALOT of research (I thought I knew enough about ww2 already..) the carrier bombing part was gonna be epic!!!

@Isotope
Hey, if I do the doolittle raid in this timeline, will the Mitchell bombers get shot down by china??

With your written history I could see your forces mistaking them for an incoming attack, which will really suck for the raiders as they're already outta fuel.

I was planning on keeping japan Histrionically accurate like i am doing with Canada for a while before i started to show changes, but my idea but not a complete copy and paste of japan its self but a Japan that didn't commit all the war crimes like the Rape of nanking but a country that attempted to retain its honor dignity and respect that tried to win the hearts and minds of the Chinese people with the new territories that would give a little more challenge and with captured territories send supplies and needed resources more openly but along with correcting also some military blunders like losing four carriers in Midway. But i am open to ideas and maybe send a draft and we work it out if their are more issues.

And it is still pending approval

@Monkeypants

That's hard to answer.

See, the Ming are not used to American presence anywhere in the pacific, and all your planes and roundels would be almost certainly be different. So even if it happened immediately after the Ming arrived there is a chance your planes would merely be forced into landing somewhere remote (or shot down if they refused), but that opens the question of timing.

Depending on when you do it, the answer changes as RP relations change.

So, I honestly don't know!

*shrugs*

@mrambo90

Oh dang, if I get accepted as alternate China all your gains there are pretty much erased. :/

Well, losing four carriers during midway wasn't really a mistake at the time. It was only in hind sight do we see things as they are. At the time, they thought they had the upper hand against an American carrier group. The only way to "correct" that battle is to simply not partake in it.

Also, I never intended to copy paste but quite a few things would be kept intact. The next thing I was going to post is a Japanese soldier during the invasion and capture of wake island.

@Isotope oh, and mihndar said you're good to go.

Well, you've got a naval fleet parked fourteen clicks out of Halifax, and I'm pretty sure Halifax is in Newfoundland, not Yamatai.

Neither. Halifax is in Nova Scotia.

Saint John is also not in Newfoundland, but rather New Brunswick (which is situated west of Nova Scotia). St. John's, an entirely different city, is Newfoundland's capital.

When I say Newfoundland, I mean the alternate universe one that was ported to the current world that has New Brunswick, Nova Scotia and Prince Edward Island as parts of their territory; so when I say it is part of Newfoundland, I mean my version, not the IRL version.

And I know St Johns is the Capital of Newfoundland, that'w why the talks are taking place there because it is also the capital of my version as well.
