:lol: You think they'll spare you because you claim to be neutral? If they want Europe, they have the power to take it. If anything I just spared you with this comment, as Germany has a habit of spiting me. if it matters, russia and T4R are currently deciding on their next moves, in secret. I think basically everybody is doing that. yep, probably. my point was, they were discussing safety of their countries, and none are safe right now, really. none in europe anyway Norway is safe. As is Bulgaria, and Holland since I have a peace agreement with them. Don't get too polluted with meglomania Walka. Merely a deterrent. Once the war is over they will be sent back to you unharmed. :( I like you Rpg, it's just that your geographical location meant you were a prime enemy. [hide=New updated map (voice up if anyone objects)][/hide] And I'll update Israel the next go around Doom.

The virus is being contained fairly effectively, as anything infected is being killed by my soldiers and airborne birds shot down by auto-turrets erected along the line. The only place for it to go is across the channel into Britannia, though that is highly unlikely. You might want to set up some of your ships to shoot and kill birds over the English Channel though, Sere.

makes me sad :( I liked being in Europe. But certainly they would have lost something in my small counter attack. It's not like they went unscathed. LAARTs have been ordered to burn and destroy everything in France/Belgium/Vatican/Luxembourg on their way out. Yes, this is effectively what the Russians did to the Germans in WWII. Nothing personal, France. Ahh stop burning my future stuff!

Sieg Heil Germany! German forces pushing heavily against the retreating Luxembourg army. Heavy losses are being sustained attacking Luxembourg's remaining line of defense in the hope of breaking through before the majority of Luxembourg's army gets away. The troops that retreated from the assault on Vatican City have landed in Southern France and are now marching with as much speed as possible (eg a snail's pace - they're all infantry) north.

Why would you surrender to Russia but not me? :( Scientific Military research :P Hm. I have to find out a way to find these unfindable things then... There's that big alliance that's currently active. It does bode well for me though that the US and China were destroyed - two of the world's biggest super powers at the start. I don't have any plans for world domination though, I just want a big power-base in Europe so I can have the production to produce space craft and whatnot on my own without relying on Brazil.

Dan built 'em. Well, why have you been building your military up for so long if you don't want to use it? Eh, they're pretty loud things iirc from the Star Wars movies. They were there before I declared war though, and you never mentioned them moved to there, that's all. I only have control of a large part of Poland, and tiny parts of France, Slovakia, Slovenia, and Hungary. It'll take me a while to overtake the other countries. Hm..

You do realize that Vatican City is only like 1/2 a square kilometer, right? 30,000 troops would have to be pretty much squished shoulder to shoulder there hehe. edit: ahh, Vatican area. So you have control of Italy now? :S Oh well, my troops have been given the order to retreat due to this new information - estimated losses during the assault ~5000 troops (includes the ones left behind to secure the retreat). I have a question though...why are all your spec ops troops in the Vatican City? *shrugs* Bulgaria seemed to have dealt with the disease in a couple days without any problems. 500,000 of my troops have been given gas masks and full body suits and are being stationed along the line of territory not currently infected as a precaution. Though, I'm not quite sure how such a massive air bombing only managed to take out 1 hangar of LAARTs... More than acceptable for the losses : Your soldiers are going to have to hurry if they plan on getting to Luxembourg, as that arrowing leading into France isn't composed of tourists out to go have a picnic :P. Hm. That's alright considering my new fighter-interceptors have been kept for the battle for Luxembourg. Your LAARTs will be in dangerous waters if they venture too far into German territory. And my men are being moved through the tunnels btw, so I don't know what your artillery is hitting. We are shelling into Luxembourg's capital in response. Unless of course someone decides to crash a spaceship into the planet :P

Thanks for the demo link mlclm Dug up some gameplay footage: [yt]UYywhZ8ju7A[/yt] [yt]6o35A0NRq4g[/yt]

There's no guaranteed, granted. However, there's no guarantee that the Brazilian Empire would not have invaded you eventually, or the Iran/Jerusalem/Luxembourg/Venezuela alliance. The whole thread is about politics really, you just have to ride the winds and hope for the best. However, I would say that you're getting quite a good deal here. Considering that you're coming in around 10 years behind in tech, and have a military strength around 1/20th of what I have, a guarantee of independence is almost unimaginable. Also, your annexation of Iceland is not going to happen now though, considering my forces are fighting for control of the island right now. Considering that we have our own ambitions to make Britannia a legitimate superpower like it once was, we may consider some sort of deal. However, knowing that your politics revolve around deception, we need more benefits brought onto the table. You could have considered a pact similar to one that Germany formed during WWII with Japan, without of course, the deception that you committed against the USSR. Although some ideas are out on the table, no formal decisions will be made yet. True, and that is quite apparent by your push to bring back the old colonial era United Kingdom, we could talk perhaps. Politics always revolve around deception though; what would be considered a knife in the back in other lines of work are considered a frontal attack in politics. It is unfortunate that such deception happened, but the maskirovka was somewhat necessary to ensure that my military could prepare for war without drawing in too much suspicion. Contact with other nations to form some sort of rough alliance were also very risky, considering the first peep of it to one of the countries we have attacked would've meant they had time to prepare proper defenses. However, I did leave quite a few clues lying around for people to find if they looked hard enough. The biggest one was of course the fact that I conscripted 14 million troops into my military, that tensions seemed to rise between me and Russia out of pretty much nowhere (a war over a plane? hehe), the little 'sad' smiley left after I said 50,000 of my troops were lost in a storm (since I had previously stated when me and Somalia had a little fighting that I didn't care much about my citizens at all), and then the final piece was that when I took over Germany I named the leader as Lahtor Field, which actually unscrambles to Adolf Hitler. I have made no assumptions on whether or not my attacks will succeed, except in the case of non-player occupied countries (since these are stuck 20 years tech behind, and assumed to be at the military strength of the present day IRL - eg. useless to combat the new European superpowers). That said, I have conquered no-one yet, except parts of Poland (but that was a guarantee as hundreds of thousands of mine and Russia's troops were already in Poland). I will have fun crossing names out from my signature as they fall, though.

Iran has the option of declaring war or not. They're allies of Luxembourg so I'm assuming they will join the war against me and Russia, but the option is there for them. If they do then their troops I have prisoner will be executed though.

A truce sounds good. Well, technically its not a truce, but more of a non-aggression pact. And, though Germany has in the past had a less than stellar record with non-aggression pacts, it will be held up on my end. Oh and Holland, I haven't declared war on you. But if you start building up your military I will (it would be breaking our peace treaty if you did).

No, they're pointed at countries that have a high probability to interfere. The Brazilian Empire is too isolationist to even remotely consider getting involved in a European war, so the weapons are not aimed at you. Anyways, I don't think you have any spaceships up, the only ones are out lightyears away to go colonize, or are being built (iirc).

mmm fiddlesticks

Lol they'll be little better than militia units with antique rifles at that rate of accelerated training. Do you accept my guarantee of independence for Britannia in exchange for an agreement for non-interference?

The German and Russian militaries have met in an orgy of violence in Torun, Poland andwell, thats not really what happened actually. You were thinking thats what it was going to be, yeh? Eh, this is more like what happened: [yt]Tyx0K4WrElo[/yt] (except for that bit about the Irish there at the end...) Germany declares war on: Slovakia, Slovenia, Croatia, Yugoslavia (Bosnia), Hungary, Albania, Denmark, France, Luxembourg, Belarus, Latvia, Lithuania, Estonia, Serbia, Former Yugoslavian Republic of Macedonia, Georgia, Turkey, Poland, Romania, Iceland and Ukraine. Germany is also glad that it can do away with its false pretenses, and has renamed itself the Fourth Reich. Oh look, a new flag! Related news: The explosives that were put underneath the buildings in Belgium that I helped repair have been detonated, causing the partial and full destruction of numerous factories, hospitals, and a few military outposts/bases. German air force has staged a massive bombing on Luxembourg, with the main areas being targeted the Luxembourg parliamentary buildings and military air bases in Luxembourg, destroying a huge number of LAARTs before they could get off the ground (yay sneak attack). Also, the 100,000 troops that Iran placed under my command for the invasion of Russia have been taken prisoner in case Iran decides to interfere with this European conflict. Air Germanys commercial airliners had been converted to carry military bombs, and were used to bomb the parliamentary buildings of France, Denmark, Hungary, Slovakia, Croatia, Romania, and Ukraine. This should impede their response to the German invasion, as their governments have taken a huge hit, in some cases losing both presidents and vice-presidents. 1.5 million German troops have surfaced from the tunnels, and are now attacking Luxembourgs capital. The 50,000 German troops that were lost at sea a few pages back have also resurfaced. They were taken back into German ports at night-time and repainted as civilian ships, and have been waiting in a smugglers port in Algeria (in exchange for a copious amount of money) for orders. They received their orders a short while ago, and have landed their troops in Italy as of last night. The troops are now attacking Vatican City. 1 million troops have moved from Poland (half of which is under complete German control) into Ukraine. Another 1 million troops have invaded Hungary and Slovenia, with 750,000 invading Slovakia. An additional 750,000 troops are invading the former lands of Belgium. The transports loaded with troops at Bremerhaven have left port, with a large navy escort, and are presently heading for France; around 85,000 in total. Air supports and artillery support is there for these assaults, as well as several units with the new anti-tank weapons. Around 8000 German civilians (they were soldiers, actually) that emigrated to Iceland after the coup were actually part of an operation that was put in place for control of the island. They have come together, and using the arms that were smuggled into the country, are currently fighting for control of the island. Their numbers have been bolstered by a further 4000 that were taken over hidden inside civilian merchant vessels (their arrival timed to coincide with the declaration of war). These vessels also carried several APCs and LAVs and hand-held SAMs to assist in the takeover of the island. Germany would like to take this opportunity to guarantee the independence of the UK, Norway, Bulgaria, Finland, and Somalia, as long as they do not take part in this war.

Except that you have a giant wasteland separating you. Hm, I will send some diplomats to Canada as well. And you have a much gianter ocean. Eh whatever. At least the cultures are actually similar. You're a totalitarian pagan society, iirc. Yes, but we're a white totalitarian western pagan society.

Is there pay by phone in NZ?

I lol'd when he said "save game" and "put book in inventory" :lol: Did you make that up or is there a site that has narratives on it, and you only make up answers to the ridiculous requests? Nah those are ones that others have done. I tried doing it, but I could never find anyone who either played a MUD/actually wanted to take part. I tried playing british-legends.com. It was so confusing all of the controls. I'm sure if I gave it enough time I'd figure it out though. I did learn how to shout. It was fun because someone else was playing so they shouted back and tried to teach me how to play.. "go west" "I don't understand that command" "Go west." "I don't understand that command" "GO WEST" "I don't understand that command" "TURN LEFT AND WALK WEST GOD DAMNIT" "I don't understand that command" I give up...

Post. Change the thread title to "Would you rather" or just hit the OP.

PM Lionheart first. He controls Canada IIRC. And as a Canadian I can tell you that they'd never accept annexation by Britain (or especially Ireland).
