[OOC] World in Revolution: 1861

I know, but appropriate for the REAL Second American Revolution.

Byrd Man, just curious as I'm not too familar with WIR; but is it possible for nations to be conquered in WIR? Like I know the Confederacy can be, but is that a special case for this RP? How does a complete annexation work?

(Disclaimer: This is asked out of curiosity for the system and organization of this kind of RP. It has no effects for or against any mythological plans to annex the Union.)

[Byrd Man]

Yeah, any nation can be conquered if you have the means and army to do it. Depending on the country, it could take a long while.

[bigscreech]

I got a fiery response to the union!:D

[Rare]

Why is anyone going to war with the Union? I say that Europe is rough with war. Also Greece is owning colonies, that colony will rebelled in a matter of time.

[Outcast]

War orders are due Thursday at the latest. If Byrd and Aegon both get their orders in soon enough, I might slip in an update to the war with the other mini-update I'm writing, but it's no biggie.

[bigscreech]

Rare I pmed you dude and I'm not going to war with the union just preventing those European creditors ready to declare war and take my land so I compromised.

[Pasta Sentient]

Greece! France! Lend me your ears! Let us move quickly and get our war orders in! Let us hope that we can slip unseen into this update!

Haha. If we don't get in on this one, that is fine; but I sent you my orders for this one Outcast. This is 1862 now right?

Just saw this post in the Update and wondered how I missed it:

"Seeing the rest of Europe militarize, the Romanian Government thought it wise to raise more troops. A propaganda campaign was drawn up, with posters and leaflets planned to be scattered all over Romania. Unfortunately, a secretary misheard some crucial orders, and the leaflets were sent to Australia instead. Due to the long distance and a poor grasp of the Romanian language, very few Australians signed up for the Romanian army."

How badly was the roll for that to happen? ANd also...what the heck are any of my colonists doing joining Romania?

[Roran Hawkins]

/me eats popcorn. This is a gem to read. Sadly noone is really playing into the industrial revolution much,or caring about the colonisation of mainland Africa. That'd prove to be a nice incentive for potential war in Europe.

Facepalm.... :(

The Spurgeon post was more flavor than anything else, but I thought it apt. :)

Ya'll becoming really dependent on Chinese exports. The Boxer Rebellion isn't going to be a good time for you.

Though, I think I might hop aboard the China train as well.

Agreed but we have a , little while to wait and that rebellion was quashed fairly quickly after the world powers intervened so I expect the same to happen here maybe even quicker than it took them to do in RL

[thorgili]

Plus the rebellion I should be worrying about is the bolsheviks and the Russian revolution

[So Boerd]

Any word from Denmark?

[Pasta Sentient]

Nada.

Also, I really wanna see some more of those comics! They are hilarious!

[So Boerd]

Denmark has made exactly one post on this forum, exactly six days ago. I think it is safe to say he's out.

Outcast, will Denmark resist? I'd like to know soon so I can send in war orders.

I agree I think he is either dead or missing

[NarcolepticSailor]

If he doesn't resurface we should just let him go so we can have someone take the Netherlands or Argentina. Something a bit more important.

I can whip another one up in paint if the situation presents itself.
