SonNES (Sonic's Never Ending Story)

[civman2000]

OOC: I will be going on vacation for awhile Sunday.

To Free World (SECRET): How about only 5 years? And if Mexico wants independence, they will be allowed to have it.

To Greenland: Perhaps we should occupy north america for a few years first to set up a good system for voting and sort little things out.

[Sonic]

Indonesian government said to Russia that they should translate all messages they sends into every language which are spoken in Indonesia by at least 1% of the population and only then wait answer. Polytologists things this is yet another attempt of the Indonesia to gain time.

Greenland suggests Free World to also sign the New North America agreement:
Come on... verybody signed it, even Japan proposed help. You, as the country of free people, should encourage such decition. Most likely most states you control would like to stay in Free World anyway...

OOC: sorry, can't post map this time cause there are some trouble with Adobe Photoshop, thus I cannot tranmute it into jpeg format (so I tried to add bmp file but it was too big).

OOC: Go Russia! And anyway, what is all this?

ooc - to Tassadar5000:
NES - Never Ending Story
It is like a role-playing game, but there are no dice or anything. Everybody rules their country and says what they are doing in each post. NES-mod (me in this NES, but could be different in other NESes) posts maps of the world under his/her posts. Wars could also arise between countries. NES-mod or other users stops people from making unrealistic claims (like "I invade and defeat country_x immidietly"), thus game remains realistic. Each country also has stats (differs in different NESes, but mostly includes navy, army and air force size) which helps to decide the outcome of wars. Diplomacy between countries is done via posts.

OOC: Oh that sounds fun Can I join?

[Sonic]

Yup . I'd probably suggest you to have Australia, as it is currently the biggest still unruled country. If you like you can also choose Burma, Greenalnd or Indonesia. Others aren't signigficant, thus I wouldn't recommend them.

OOC: Australia it is. Who is who? What are the rules? Tell me more! Tell me more!!

[Sonic]

OOC: OK. So you are Australia from now on.
Who is who:
JackWWW is Free World (purple on all maps)
Civman2000 is New European Union (green on all maps)
Sheep is Islamic Empire of Faith (fark green/blue on all maps)
Foolish_Icarus is Japan (light blue on all maps)
Easthaven I is Novaya Russia (dark red on all maps)
Tassadar5000 is Australia (light purple on all maps)
I control all unclaimed countries.

Rules:
Each country has it's own parameters. Sizes of army/navy/air force has significance when deciding outcome of wars, size of economy allows (or disallows) country to buy something (e. g. territories), intelligence capacity means countries ability to spy, steal techs, do terror acts, etc. (and counter against all those things). Here are Australian stats:

Land army: Medium
Navy: Large
Air Force: Medium
Economy: Good
Intelligence: Bad
Government: Democracy; federation; mediocre right

Note: you can improve army-economy-intelligence (only on slow rate), you have to note on your major projects bellow your posts). Army and economy can't be improved at a time.

In game now (so that you'd have what to do ):
Indonesia asks Australia to help in the war against Russia

Burma asks Australia to form a mutual protection pact called "Indian Ocean Treaty"

OOC: You mean at the same time? OK. Also, how do I "improve" intelligence or whatever? Does it go up a level each time I say I want to improve it? WHen can I imrpove it? How do I shift governments? How do I find a countries stats? How do I know if I will/won't be defeated? How can I make a good guess? What do you mean major projects? Also, don't you think Russia is a bit...big?

Indonesia asks Australia to help in the war against Russia

Australia would like to know more details about this war before any intervention.

Burma asks Australia to form a mutual protection pact called "Indian Ocean Treaty"

Australia politely declines saying that it currently wishes to have neutral relations with Burma.

Welcome to SonNES!!

[Sonic]

OOC: by improving you have to post in your posts something like "Australia is going to improve it's intelligence to medium in the following years. "That costs much, but we can handle it - says the prime minister"", etc. As for what can be improved and what would be too much, just have the common sense and everything should be OK and realistic. As for governments, you can shift anytime, you'd have to post something like "There was a revolution in Australia, terrorists overpowered government and installed a dictatorship". Of course, revolutions can't happen too frequently and other countries might not recognise the ne w government, etc. Yet again, just have common snese on what is realistic and what isn't. As for projects, I meant mostly size improvements. Russia is big mostly because it annexed this much of land in wars, etc. You may read some pages of this NES for more info how everything goes on and sizes, etc. I now have to go to sleep .
