Did that recruitment thread ever get started? And has the UK developed Nuclear Weapons yet? What's happening with the UK in brief?

Considering I was Finland to begin with I'm not too sure where I'm taking the UK. I'll just say that the UK has nuclear weapons if France and the other nations have them? I guess that's up to the GM.

[AegonVI]

Just looked it up. UK didn't get nukes until 1952, though if I were I'd try and push to be a Space-faring Nation before anyone else, because that would be cool.

[Ozymandias]

Ah, ok. I'm not too bothered about having nuclear weapons though. Unless we're planning on turning this RP into a nuclear apocalypse RP at some point :P

[AegonVI]

Minister for Foreign Affairs, Fernandes
Minister of War, Gen. Canrobert

(ARCHIVING NAMES)

Question! Considering our main leader could have been anyone prominent enough at the time to hold the role, do you think the same could be said for other minor roles, such as ministers?

SHOOT FOR THE MOON, UK.

EDIT: The reason I'm so interested in Antarctica, by the way, is because the Antarctic treaty hasn't been signed yet *maniacal laugh*

[Ozymandias]

I don't see why you couldn't change the ministers. It's alternate history after all.

[AegonVI]

Awesome. I'm gonna work under that assumption, because it's incredibly hard to figure out who various ministers were in Brazil in 1950.

[Ozymandias]

Yeah, I know what you mean. I don't particularly feel like trawling the internet for ages just for names. I'm a lazy Brit I need information in less than five seconds or I lose interest.

João Neves da Fontoura is Brazil's foreign minister, Pedro Aurélio de Góis Monteiro is the war minister. Brazil has seperate ministries for its army, navy and air force.

I'd rather not have people set off nukes. Both sides in the Cold War did everything they could to prevent that.

Yeah, that was the point of my comment.

Nearly 13000 characters later and EVEN LONGER than my first post, Brazil has posted again. This time it involves both the United States and South Africa.

I thank you, but I think I will keep it as I did. Those were actual ministers for Brazil, too (except for Carlos Luz, but I needed someone), and those were their actual departments. Plus they aren't really major characters. But thank you anyways, Dutch.

Yea, so who has nukes at this point is pretty irrelevant. We can just assume it's currently only USA and USSR who have them.

Also, Cuba player, you need to post soon. I can't really do much until you do since East Germans are kind of obsessed with Cuba right now.

[AegonVI]

We also need a PRC, ROC, France, and India post. And I need a U.S. and South Africa post, but I also just posted, so I'm good for a bit... Right...?

EDIT: If anyone is keeping up with Brazil, what d'ya think? Any suggestions to add to realism? (Also, I think I might add an extra viewpoint character next post.)

You'll be glad to hear that MagnificentOne and I are about to spice this game up.
