26 MPH for the main battle tank, around 38-40 MPH for the light, around 18 MPH for the Super Heavy.

Is that good or is it too low?

Kilo mind if i ask you how you made your map?

Also, for comparison on the tanks the Char B1 had a top speed of 28 KPH on road and 21 KPH off road.
The Churchill tank series had a top speed of around 25 KPH.

Thanks, I was trying to base their stuff on actual tanks, with a few upgrades due to the setting.

No problem, I have a large amount of real world knowledge on military hardware if you want any information on something I likely either know it or can find it in my documents somewhere.

if you want on my off days I can even build a tank from scratch and give you an idea of it's capability based on size, ground pressure, weight, and horsepower.

Looks like it could be in the 300mm range for the main guns.

@Omega

I didn't make the map to be honest. I just slightly edited the original one and made it a bit bigger. If it helps, I used GIMP to do it.

Anyway, since I'm gunning for a nation that helps act as a mediator and humanitarian relief force, does any nations have any wars in their more recent history that helped give Arcis a name of "The Red Cross of nations" ?

Done and done, the Federation is up and running. Now time to just figure out how tall the mechs are (for fun) and add the explanation of a Myth Drop

@Kilo6 Oh yeah, the vast majority of the population was going to not be in the desert area (because that's how people would move...). Working on the rest.

It seems our nations share similar tank designs! ;)

@Usurper King

Still want you to lower your population to below 90,000,000. If you choose exactly 90,000,000 you might want to start writing up how crowded the living space is. With that, you gonna want to downsize your military as well. It just seems a bit to far fetch, even for me.

Sorry, I meant that I was changing it to your specifications when I said I was working on it. It's up now, although I do like your idea of overcrowding...
When you said 'Large Nations' I thought you meant like Germany or France, so I thought it could be reasonable. Sorted it out now...

Hey- can I say that I have a large industrial base, more so than average, but to compensate my nation has an agricultural sector that is far too small to support it- which I thought would feed in well with the overcrowding issues I was going to give myself. This would mean that I would trade away most of my excess trade goods for food, meaning that in the end my nation doesn't have any advantage over others.

The reason I'd like this change is twofold: it would create some economic variety in our continent, and also create a dependence on foreign trade for my nation. This would create some problems for me, as well as potentially provide some interesting international politics. It would also fit my territory: it isn't the most agricultural of places. I feel I need some down-sides, as my nation seems too overpowered to me...

Of course, you could just decide this isn't worth doing (I get the same amount of goods and food either way), which is understandable. I'll just figure out some other weaknesses to put into my nation- I have a few ideas...

I dunno about wars, but a Commonwealth Tycoon who felt guilty about inventing and mass-producing TNT could have been one of the backers for the Red Cross equivlent.

Disputes over who holds the patents and who let the design notes leak may be a serious point of contention between Engine's East Academy and whatever tank design board you have.

Who ripped off who? Which side had a inventor defect? An argument that may never be answered.

If you two do decide on who had a defector that would make for a very interesting point of contention in your histories.

Possibly could be this world's version of the Snowden incident if its a Inventor who leaks a ton of military-industrial complex info out.

But to which side? I might be up for it being a commonwealth inventor who went rogue. What do you think Kilo?

Member Offline since relaunch

Before I continue reading all these interesting nation sheets, I've half a mind to create a smaller, independent nation reminiscent of late 1700s to early to mid 1800s America, with different technology than those time periods to fit the Steampunk feel of course. I had in mind this nation would have branched off from a stricter, more religious and taxing country, of which I see a few already put up. Anyone want to do a national history collaboration to fit this idea? It'd be leaning moreso near the end of your nation's history, so you wouldn't have to change up too much/would leave more than enough room for your own history.

Oooooooh! Good idea! I say it was your inventor who defected to Arcis since it's a nation built on immigrants banished peoples, so it would make sense. How about the inventor, for reasons we will discuss later, defected to Arcis, gave them the tank designs, then help develop the new, unique "Arcis Rounds" to give the tanks a greater edge? Oh and upon learning this, let's just say our nations relations are going to be quiet the cluster fuck. XD
