[OOC] World in Revolution: 1861

[AegonVI]

Nothing happened while I slept?? That's disappointing...

[Giant]

Shit, wasn't the starting date 1860?

Nope, shit.

Requesting permission to move the start of the Colombian Civil War one year forward.

[MagnificentOne]

@Outcast; As we're starting in April, I thought I should mention that the Xianfeng Emperor should still be reigning.

[Outcast]

@MagnificentOne; right you are, Mag. Changed it.

@Giant; sorry bud, already had to deny a similar request earlier, so it wouldn't be fair if I accepted yours. Colombian Civil War is in full swing. You can either roll with it or change nations.

[Ampharos]

How do civil wars work? Do you control the opposition/anti-government forces?

[Outcast]

Yes, I control all successionist/anti-government movements (except the CSA) and all NPC nations. However, they will only launch attacks that occurred in the OTL, and sometimes not even then if it doesn't fit/make sense,

[Byrd Man]

We're getting three war orders in addition to the regular orders right?

[Giant]

Changed Mosquera's escape to Antioquia, which ended in him being captured, to him going to Santander. If you don't mind, that is.

Also, how many orders do I get as a minor nation in Civil War?

[AegonVI]

@Giant your post still says 1860 and we start on the 15th of the month of April.

[Outcast]

@Byrd; yes, three war orders. Use them wisely.

@Giant; thats fine. You get four normal orders. If you recognise the opposition as being a war, you also get three war orders, but it could give your enemy some legitimacy and other nations might recognise them as the rightful government. Plus, your people (and people in every country, in fact) don't like being in a war, so watch out for that.

Uh, technically the war has already been going on for a year so...

[AegonVI]

Does your yearly balance automatically get added/subtracted from your bank?

[Outcast]

Yes.

[AegonVI]

Awesome. I'm curious to see how Europe reacts. So far only been Greece that's made note.

[NarcolepticSailor]

I'm in the middle of writing something up myself.

And you totally want to recognize me, right???

[Giant]

Oh, dayumn. You're indirectly threatening the rebels, Rare, since they're the ones in the South who have set up a provisional government.

Not to mention that Brazil hasn't exactly done away with slavery themselves at this time. It wasn't fully abolished OTL until 1888 with the passing of the Golden Law.

Which is why I had hoped he would support me...:/

He's supporting you, morally, at least. I was referring to the rebels on my war.
