Precipice of War - We Write Under The Sign Of The Goat

Did you guys hear that El Chapo placed a $100 million dollar bounty on Donald Trump because of all the stuff he said?

Precipice of War - We Write Under The Sign Of The Goat

Imma have to reregister as a Democrat to vote in the primary I suppose.

I registered as a Republican when I was 18 during the 2008 election because I was young and dumb and a Ron Paul nut back then (I kno, I apologize)

@Vilageidiotx

Still better than Clinton.

In Europe, or at least in France, you can have a perfectly standard subscription for less than 20€ (22$), and 45€ will get you a premium offer with unlimited everything. That's for cellphones.

@Veoline

Sure. But inflation is coming to get you, Frenchie~ I hear CK2 is 43 euros now on Steam. Such a tragedy.

I don't doubt it. We definitely gotta get our shit together over here if we are going to rejoin the western world.

I went to his rally in New Orleans yesterday. I have a sign in my window now.

Well at least you can buy machine guns and stuff.

@Veoline

And "better" healthcare than what everyone else gets.

Point of Departure: World War II

<Snipped quote by Iluvatar>

Basically, Akron and Macon never crashed, and the US passed “An Act for the Establishment of a Commercial Airship Transportation Industry in the United States” - something briefly brought up and failed as a bill in our timeline as the "Transoceanic Merchant Airship Bill" (I think; I actually have zero information about that bill besides its name). Then airships slowly prove that they're not completely worthless in a fleet exercise.

So, we end up with more airships. They only last until planes get longer range. And then helicopters fill their ASW role. Airships are awesome, but even in alternate timelines they can't last.

Or, if you want to read the whole thing, it's here.

@Queen Raidne

So I'm imagining in the RP the Tulsa will end up trying to rejoin the United States? Or do you have another plan in mind?

Does the Moons atmosphere ever encounter with the planets atmosphere to form a temporary bridge that a balloon could possibly cross to moon?

<Snipped quote by Aweirdgamer>

I'm gonna have to go read some of old roleplay. Memory isn't the greatest and lost a lot of notepads with random stuff I wrote down.

@Neruu

I would imagine that in order for that to happen the moon and planet would have to be very close. And in that case there would be absolutely insane tidal forces.

In other words, no one living anywhere near the coast would be safe.

@Klomster

That's a fairly impressive sheet you have there. I'm not an expert on naval warfare, but nothing seems overpowered, and your back story is fine. Welcome aboard.

If the moon is big enough to have an atmosphere, retain water and even have a flora, wouldn't it severely impact the stability of our planet's tilt and orbit? Unless they're more like twin planets than an actual planet-satellite system.

@Veoline

Both the planet and moon are more massive but not larger than our Earth and moon.

But our races all evolved in this gravity so we're used to it.

Civilization Roleplay: Rise of Races (The Tribes of Nova Mondial Want You!)

Edit: How many moons are there orbiting the planet?

@Veoline

One large moon, with oceans and plant life, so it would be blue and green much like the Earth would seem from space. Except the land covers a significantly larger portion of the surface, say half and half.

<Snipped quote by Veoline>

Speaking of moons, I was thinking recently about a "global event" (for the southern regions, at least). How often would an eclipse happen? Has one already happen (I didn't notice any when reading through old IC posts)? How big is the actual world compared to this continent, for reference of how many of us would see said eclipse? Do "global events" even happen at all, or is this wishful thinking?

On that question, would there be any climate change as the years go on, like a new ice age?

@Father Dagon

Not sure about the eclipse, if you guys agree on it happening now or on a definite cycle we can include it. Same with any other global events, since this is after all a collaborative writing process. I like the idea myself. I have not seen any eclipses, and I've read all the IC up until the last page.

In terms of a mercator projection, which is how the actual whole map is, the current map is roughly one quarter of the world, the northeast corner. I do wish that there was a tool where you could convert a mercator projection map to an actual globe, but I have not found one. This continent is essentially a parallel to Europe-Asia-Africa, so think the distance between the tip of the western peninsula and the mouth of the desert river is roughly equivalent to the distance between Istanbul and Beijing. Which according to the internet is 4710 miles.

I don't think I can keep up with you guys anymore. I just haven't felt in the mood to sit down and write for a long while. I've been busy with other things, and I just don't feel creative enough. I think maybe I just need some time to refuel my brain. So, sorry guys, I'll have to drop this one and take a break from the guild for a while.

Feel free to come back anytime and continue, we'll leave the door open for you. And yours were my favorite posts, too xD

I'm thinking about a second post, probably try to interact with SgtEasy.

GalaxyQuest, you say?

<Snipped quote by Mihndar>
It feels odd to read this, yet the logic holds.

Also, even with the original Civ RP, I don't think there was a timeline followed very strictly.

@Aweirdgamer

Indeed. One of my favorite movies.

Well, to be fair, I don't remember the last time you took a very strong position on anything. Not that that's a bad thing. If there were more people like you in the world we might all get along for a change
