Outcast and I have spoken about this because I attempted to make an order that wouldn't work. Here is his response (edited out vital information):So basically this makes jumping points so important. Like...I couldn't land all my conscripts in North Russia, but I could in Netherlands cause of the short distance in the English channel.

Provided you were travelling from the eastern-most point of England, crossing over to the Netherlands (specifically Flanders) would require traversing about 100km of sea—three times the distance necessary to cross from England to France, and about twenty times the distance to cross from mainland Italy to Sicily.

Outcast is online.

Get hyped.

Fair enough. Was using it more as an example but the distance was larger. I think that's up to Outcast to decide on that.

@Stein, You will receive many virtual cookies tonight I foresee.

WiR: 1900?!

I don't even know what country I'd play. Maybe the dragon. Maybe South Africa. Guatemala maybe.

Assuming a 10 knot warship speed, an England Flanders round trip is 10 hours, 48 minutes.

I'm leaning strongly towards Japan.

Edit cause submitted before ready: You should be Korea.

I would love to be Russia circa 1900. Plenty of fun stuff coming up in the Motherland around that time.

[Byrd Man]

I would really like to play the US. I know it's a bit selfish, but I love that period of US history when America is coming into its own and my favorite president is at the helm, but I'll defer so someone else can have a chance.

[So Boerd]

I don't want to be in the driver's seat all too much. Sweden here. Or Portugal.

Id declare armed neutrality

Neutrality is only relevant when there is another conflict. Without Germany, what other war can there be?

Trust me, we'll find reasons for plenty of wars. And then drag them on longer than we should.
