Of course I didn't make it.

That is pretty much what I thought. I don't see any reason why such a letter would be sent in the first place, why bother trying to provoke the British when we knew they'd end up winning the 'rebellion' in the first place. I want to know more about this, he's claiming Russia told him.

'To our brother Karl Marx,

We applaud your efforts in moving against the new government of the United Kingdom and ask that you would continue. Maintain your rebellion and you may rest assured that assistance will be on the way as soon as we are done with France. We ask that you continue working with the 'British Aristocrats' until such a time that our soldiers can depose of them. Rest assured Mr. Marx, that when the United Republic is finished; that you will be amply rewarded. We support your cause.'

If you're just kind of pulling stuff out of your butt with that letter for a justified declaration of war I imagine that it does matter. That is a pretty substantial claim to be making and while I generally don't want to get involved on the bickering here I think it should be clarified.

Edit: It isn't fake? Can Prussia confirm they made it?

Did you read the DoW?

You made a fake letter?

Pasta Sentient said
Yup. I doubt this will cause provocation. They will be more worried about Prussia than any new Government. That said, if things get too rough I know how to handle it quickly.

Why would they be worried about Prussia? They had no reason to be worried until you declared war, rofl.

Yes. Their alliance is a perfectly genuine reason for going to war together, just like it was against the Union.

Well, the French were abiding by the Treaty of Constantinople I imagine in coming to the aid of the Austrians. Which gave them a proper reason to declare war, then the British are allowed to join as well through their existing alliance. Although the British themselves said that they were done with the Treaty, so I don't know.

The standard has already been set that Britain does not require so petty a thing as a "Casus Belli" before going to war. The British Empire does not need a reason for war, after all, but a reason for peace. Let us not forget the blockade of the North Atlantic. Victoria may be gone, but the mind behind her insanity (Pasta's mind), is still very much active.

Can't he simply claim he was abiding by the FFGB alliance by getting involved? I would be more concerned with the fact that war is a possibility immediately after their revolt. Not so much a casus belli.

Oh my god. It's like softcore hentai.

Outcast please hand over all information regarding WiR stats and how rolls are done, so Sailor can do a Fallout WiR

Oh golly. I'm not sure Outcast even fully know how it all actually functions.

Personally, I wouldn't take on GMing one of these without at least one co-GM though.

Neither would I, thought that would in part have to do with the fact that I would play to play as well.

World in Revolution: Ice and Fire would be a cool thing to do... Too bad I don't know how to run WiR, otherwise I'd try to make a conversion.

I'm currently in the same boat, have a few things drawn up for a WiR involving either Warcraft or Fallout but don't know how to do the whole stats thing. So it just kind of sits there.
