"Hello there, USSR. It's the German Empire. No hard feelings?"
"Um. What is this USSR you speak of?"

Even if it were still our USSR:

"Hello there, USSR. It's the German Empire. No hard feelings?"
"Oh, look. A Nazi ship broadcasting its location. How convenient."

@Queen Raidne

How dare you bring logic into this mystical land. Besides the Germans are in the midst of The Siege of Leningrad and there probably wont be a response.

Give me a minute to fix the post.

EDIT: Before you say it, yes Svalbard was mostly evacuated because of Operation Gauntlet, however some of the facilities (minus the mines) are still intact and there is a Norwegian garrison at Spitsbergen.

Post is in progress, will likely be finished tomorrow.

@Voltus_Ventus You're accepted. Note that you're Navy's over-specialized, though. It's kind-of like the RP equivalent of min-maxing; while you'll be really great at submarine warfare, you've got weaknesses in other areas, like your air force and surface ships (landing and support craft come to mind especially). However, that's not an OOC issue, that's one that will end up being worked out IC.

I expect, in other words, that someone will at some point complain about how completely imbalanced your Navy is, and I'd like to point out to that future person that said imbalance can be leveraged against said Navy.

Anyway, yay! Posts! Things are progressing and that makes me happy! Cupcakes for everyone!

[Voltus_Ventus]

@Queen Raidne I could change it, it wouldn't be an issue.

[Nerevarine]

I'll get a post up soon, just thinking of the best way to introduce a bunch of angry Boers ripping across the South African Border reacting to suddenly being in a new universe

[SgtEasy]

I'll my post mine soon as well, I'm trying to figure out how the UFS will react.... Wait, is the American contingent in my borders carried on?

[ClocktowerEchos]

Well, got a post out. Not sure how good it is but oh well >.<"

[Voltus_Ventus]

I have a bruised thumbed after typing that on my phone and my eyes hurt. Let's hope my pain yielded good results.

[Deaddlife]

@Voltus_Ventus I'm a bit confused with your post, are you adding in Franco-Nazi Canada into this world? Or is this the minutes before your nation shifts into the world?

[mrambo90]

I second that

[Klomster]

Nah, it's sorta like my post.

He speaks a lot of the enemies from his timeline, since the troops haven't realized the shift yet, so naturally they think the border is as it was.

Hence why i speak of the "Commonwealth alliance" which i imagine are made up from mainly brits, an america where the confederacy won and texas along with their south european allies.
All while i sail towards southern africa, thinking its ruled by some backwater tribal government with no chance of resisting a battleship. While it is actually the republic of south africa i'm headed for.
Whom probably have a bit more juice behind them.

All in all, everyone will be rather confused :P Especially our "characters".

[mrambo90]

Alot of Canadians just went missing according to the 1941 census

@Deaddlife

This was right before the Cut'n'Paste, of you'd like a little backdrop for the Franco-Nazi Montrealans, I'd be glad to provide.

@Queen Raidne I could change it, it wouldn't be an issue.

@Voltus_Ventus

Don't worry about it. I like it!

[Deaddlife]

@Klomster Thank you for clarifying.

Should I post an IC update or wait a bit longer?

[Monkeypants]

Sorry for afk ness, I'm working on a post. It should be done some time tonight.

On that note, @Iluvatar, do you have active forces in north Africa?

[Meiyuuhi]

@Klomster Thank you for clarifying.

@Deaddlife

I'll respond to you soonish, and we'll have no hostility towards you because we have no idea who Germany even is other than that they're the people who have suddenly appeared and are occupying our land.

[SgtEasy]

Well, busy weekend so I can't promise a post till Monday hits. Sorry guys, I'll lack behind probably XD

@Monkeypants

Should be some in Egypt/Libya, and the Sudan. But some of those may have to be shipped off south to hold of the South Africans.

Expect my second post tomorrow BST, once I've read over all the new posts.
