[OOC] God, Gatling, and Glory [Steampunk/Imperialism NRP]

Well you could always just BS stuff based on common tropes. Not everybody have clear-cut analogues (Except of course Honorable Chairman Stein, but he is so goddamn endearing that its okay)

Duck, don't be a nerd. Make something original, or at least not-german. For example, "Libertarian Frenchmen". [but if you steal my fucking nation I will geld you]

@rextremendum

The problem is when it comes to RPs like this I tend to need some IRL country to inspire my nation. I really only know about Germany to feel comfortable about creating a Pseudo version of it.

So Bored, I like you. I am willing to ignore it on the grounds of "muh steampunk", but if we want to go full fun times we could say that they are sail driven until someone creates rocket engines or good propellers.

Oh I'm getting so many compliments today. I feel almost as though Mao-Senpai noticed me! Edit: To be fair the AUNS is a mixture of Maoist China and Stalinist Russia. The ideology has a lot of the 'People's War' ideas of Maoism but the more Euro-centric ideas of Stalinism. So imagine it as a weird 1930s Mongolia.

I rather not spend my limited freetime reading wikipedia. Gonna juggle a few ideas, and see where to from there.

"Gosh, learning is just not a good use of my time. Who like to enrich themselves and broaden their understanding of the world? I'm just going to ardently refuse to leave my comfort zone even when it will not only help me but also everyone else in the game."

[null123]

But you sure seem to like spending your limited freetime arguing about things on the internet.

@Samebito

I do not do that as much as you nearly think I do. A lot of it just comes from being a GM and trying to keep things under control.

[rextremendum]

I don't know how slow you read, but unless you are a fucking fourth grader, you could have read half the fucking article by now. Instead you are here with us, defending willing ignorance when it conflicts with your oh so busy schedule.

@So Boerd https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4Ugebzq3juE I appreciate the maths you have done because I love me some maths. Forcing aerial ships to go with the wind would be a rather interesting turn considering that Steamships have only just recently dethroned a need to obey the winds on the sea. Or maybe we're all just over thinking it and should consider the above link. I'm open for either route really. My inner scientist calls for the former, but my inner goofball calls for the later. In the end I throw it to the Proles to decide.

[Chairman Stein]

Let's all be nice to Duck! He's a GM of a stunningly successful NRP that I cannot help but follow just a teenie-tiny bit. Let him make his own nation! However, I would still be happy to see something less Germanic, we could always use a Anglo Nation or heck, I'd really think a pseudo-Kalmar Union* (Scandinavia) would be interesting. * For anyone that doesn't know; the Kalmar Union was the union of predominantly Danish kings that united Scandinavia in Personal Unions up until the mid 15th century.

I just spent a few hours reading over various Inventions for a piece of homework for World, I do like doing that, its just that there is only so much of it I can put up with, and most of my reading goes into World History and English. Especially English.

Dude, jesus christ. You could be a bit nicer.

[Commodore Robot]

@rextremendum Cool down fair brother, if the boy wishes to not go too deep into things let him. No need to harsh his buzz.

[rextremendum]

So let me get this straight. >You read mostly English and World History >you know nothing but German history enough to feign knowledge enough to play a nations RP ONE OF THESE THINGS IS NOT LIKE THE OTHER

Chill with the fat krauts homies. Lets not fill this OOC with too many negative waves.
