Idk if me and Doom really need a war judge, unless an argument starts over something. Hmm. Bugger. Okay, here goes. Germanian troops rush into the opening in Somalia, but quickly find themselves bogged down by heavy fighting by guerrilla fighters. Germanian artillery support has been brought up, and the laborious exercise of urban warfare is being fought. Outside of the cities, guerrillas are being combated with napalm dropped from low-flying bombers, which is particularly effective against the guerrillas as they have no anti-air weapons. Due to the hit and run tactics by Brazilian forces, Germanian troops have begun to lay traps and roll with false convoys, in order to tempt the Brazilian forces. It was successful at first, resulting in some pretty nasty Brazilian casualties, but the Brazilians quickly stopped hitting such tempting targets, or at least thought twice about it (reasonable, Doom?). Facing heavy pressure from the Brazilian navy, the Germanian navy has retreated back along the coast. The plan is still to intercept supplies and reinforcements, but not expose Germanian naval vessels so much, as along the coast they'll still have air support from the Germanian air force. Germanian troops have been taking heavy losses along the Portugese front, though they've managed to break through in a couple places along the line, thanks in part to the Scorpion heavy artillery tanks that were brought up into close combat (much to the behest of their designer), and used to blow apart bunkers. The Scorpions involved were hit hard by Brazilian air planes and ground troops armed with anti-tank weapons, suffering nearly 80% casualties (meaning around 16 of the 20 that attacked are either destroyed or so badly damaged that they're just scrap metal now). Germanian troops are stubbornly holding onto these positions, and a further million troops have been called up into the attack, bringing fresh reinforcements and a much need boost of morale to the assaulting Germanian troops. Btw Doom, I have that amphibious assault going on in Quebec, in case you missed it.

Alright, you lose 1 drone for every 3 that the roll comes up to, to compensate for defense systems knocking them off course, or navigation on the pods failing. Result: 68 You lost 22 pods due to error. Total of 178 pods make their way into Malaysia. You lose 1 pod for the roll divided by 5, to compensate for them falling somewhere where they are useless (a drone operating by electricity can't exactly swim up from a lake that the pod lands in), or somehow being destroyed on contact. Result: 28 (round up to 30) You lose 6 pods due to crashing in weird places/destruction Of the 200 pods launched, 172 make it in intact. These pods can't really carry a lot of drones, though. IF they're small enough to be so fast and heavily armoured that they can just brush past missile defense, I'd say 5 drones per pod is reasonable.

Those battalions have been crushed by my 5 million man standing army... No, they havn't. Those bataillions had well over 1000 men each, along with tanks, planes and other vehicles. Plus, you didn't know where they were, so you couldn't have crushed them. yes and my HAW's are sent out in scouting missions in groups of 10 along with general scouting by UMRF's Cambodia is now being invaded by 3 million infantry half of my airforce 2,000 planes and 250 HAW's also civillians have been evacuated from all major cities... WHAT DO YOU NOT UNDERSTAND ABOUT THIS Read the last few pages. Specifically, my posts, as they contain the basic rules for our new war mechanic. Hehehe. He's sending 20 stories high things out scouting. They'd see those things from miles off hahaha.

Alright, you can't really judge battles unless people post how many people they have attacking. "a bunch of battalions" (I see you've expanded on this above kirby :) ) isn't a number, as it could range from 5000-100,000. So, for each side, someone posts their attacking forces, and their strategy, and the defender posts their defending troops, and their strategy, and then the war judge works out the probability and rolls for them. And just because someone's military has x amount of people in it, that doesn't mean that they have that many people defending a certain point. If you have a 5 million man army, and an empire seperated by the sea, you won't be able to pull them all into one place to defend against an attack. From now on the "My whole army defeated your assault" isn't a viable tactic, as it means that everywhere else has nobody defending it.

Oh dear, I lol'd. And if Hedgehog argues about that, just say they got there by sailing through Findenland's rivers in dingy boats made out of unicorn flesh. It's a bullet-proof plan.

People probably won't like me being a judge. But seeing as you're never at war.. ACTUALLY WAIT. I'm not invading Jerusalem. I'm invading Brazil! Let's do some fisticuffs Doom. 2 million troops swarm over the Portugese border, howling like wild animals (we are pagans after all), while 3 million move forward all along the African border, and start pushing hard against Brazilian positions. Air support for Africa is heaviest, as well as having the highest concentration of MAASs and Scorpions, and those are being used to their fullest potential. The German navy has also moved into the Atlantic, to try and cut off any supplies going from SA to Africa, or any troops being sent as reinforcements to the defending Brazilian forces in either Africa or Portugal. The Iceland navy is being mobilized as well, and has picked up troops from both Iceland and Greenland, and is staging an amphibious assault on Quebec's shoreline. LET'S DO THIS Let's see how the "end of days" war plays out, yeh?

Never mind, you are correct. I misspelled "like".

Yes/no? I have some fun plans for India... I already said no, but the end decision is Adrenal's. And I'm in for a weird war, as long as it has no effect on the actual game. But you said that the reason you didn't want let me have it was because you were concerned that I'd declare war on you again. I don't plan to do that. So where's the harm? :( I think we should do a free for all so we don't cause any more bad feeling tbh You don't plan to do it at the moment. And here's the border security project I have going on (will take around 8 years to complete): The plan is to bring as many big ol' rocks to the borders that Germania shares with other countries, then lay them on top of eachother, putting reinforced concrete to fill in the gaps (Libya-Egypt, Africa-Brazil, Spain-Portugal, Germania-Findenland, and lastly Germania-Russia). It'll provide a logistical nightmare for anyone wanting to get heavy equipment into Germanian controlled land. To do so, they'd have to either bring it into the tunnels (which will be closed), or bring a crane and lift them high up onto the raised ledge, and then take them across that distance, and then somehow get them down the other side again (all the while taking artillery fire, and fire from the troops in the bunkers). Either that or they'll have to stage an amphibious assault against my heavily defended shorelines, and get them there like that. The drawing isn't really to scale, though. It'll be more life 500 feet to bring it up, then a mile to cross. Finally, if the wall falls into enemy hands, the high explosives will be remotely detonated (they're completely protected, and won't go off unless they get the correct signal, from the correct terminal, from the correct blahblah, etc), which will turn that section into a completely impassable (by heavy stuff) mini-mountain. Anyways, I'm up for a FFA. I've invaded Jerusalem with around 3 million troops, with the MAASs advancing with them, and the Scorpions blasting at any resistance-heavy location.

Why ? Rocco is highly underqualified. Well then you choose someone :lol: Germania is reinforcing its borders, I'll draw something up to show you when I get around to it. It should take 7 or 8 years for the project to be completed, and will provide employment for around 300,000 workers.

I could go dig up the sequence of events, but I can't be arsed to. No worries, I do the same.

To do that I would've had to acknowledge that you actually had control of Berlin, which wasn't going to happen. And the fact that such a stupid weapon could exist, which also wasn't going to happen. It's not a win button. It's a deterrant button. It would [bleep] everyone up, including the person who used it. That's actually exactly what happened. -- It looks good Ross.

Not to mention that if either of us somehow ended up getting the upper-hand, the other person would just start crashing spaceships into Earth. I can do that too :( Gonna take a look for my suggested rules myself. Yea, but once we start running out of spaceships me and Doom can start crashing shipyard and battle stations as well.

The war was stopped because nobody was doing anything reasonable. Findenland "captured" my capital and lost 300 men, somehow managing to sneak 200,000 troops into Germany. And then Latino kept going back and forth as to what he was doing, so it was impossible to post my response, since it went something like this: Latino: I attack in Africa Me: Germanian troops pulling back in the face of massive attack, scorched earth strategy Latino: Haha I only attacked with my air force, you just killed your people! Me: ... Ok, then my troops haven't pulled back, since you never attacked with land forces Latino: No! I attacked with drones! :?

Yep.

We don't have a non-aggression pact, but we both realize that attacking each-other would get no where and pretty much destroy the planet. Sort of like how the US and the Soviets didn't escalate into full-scale war from the cold war. Not because of a treaty, but because of mutually assured destruction. I'm still at a loss to what SMA means. I doubt it means spinal muscular atrophy, though. edit: Nevermind, I'm an idiot. Super Mega Alliance lol. But then again, how is Findenland, Jerusalem, Aether, Malaysia, Luxembourg, and Japan not a "super mega alliance"?

A tithe is a tax.

I have no idea what that means.

Oh not this [cabbage]e again.

I've changed my mind, India will go to Rocco. And sorry Deungeon, I forgot who it was that was actually being reasonable about the war (it was mired by all the people who weren't). Neither Brazil nor Sri Lanka are in an alliance with me. If I wanted to be a [bleep] I could give it to one of my allies, but that doesn't really make much sense (the only one with a semblance of claim to India is Britannia, and that would not end well). 1,2,3.

So it can throw 5 ton objects for 20 feet? That sounds more realistic. I am adjusting my drones, the material that makes up a lot of the legs is now made up of a special plastic coating, with metal on the inside. This stops my drones from being badly affected by electrical weapons. Edit: Damnit Dusty, what the hell is that for? Doom has already said she is going to GIVE AWAY land to new players for free. Japan is a tiny Island nation, they could do with more land so they aren't packed together like sardines. Why are you holding a grudge on Japan? Lol. Japan controls Japan, New Guinea, and the Philipines, they're not "packed together like sardines". The grudge is not so much a grudge as a political move. Japan has gone to war with me before, and so could very well do so again. Brazil hasn't, and won't, so *shrug* it is better for me to give it to Brazil. Brings up an interesting point. Except Indians hate the Sri Lankans. I will consider it though. Obviously I have to give it to someone who plays realistically, as India in the hands of someone who doesn't would cause so many arguments (eg. "I conscript 1b troops and invade the world"). I could also just hold it for myself if everyone whines about who should get it. To prevent conflict, of course :roll: .

I would mind, yes. I abdicate India to the control of Doom and the Brazilian Empire.

They got scared off by the amount of people India could bring up to fight them.

Naval construction yard in Tunisia is done, and is churning out 1 carrier, 4 destroyers, and 3 subs per year (this is just so I don't have to post it every day).
