Alternate History NES

[Methril]

Welcome to the Alternate History Storytelling NES, made by Methril (Azale).

This a my first NES, so be easy on me . It is based on a alternate history book For Want of a Nail, a book I actually haven’t found, but I have read enough of it to infer on the nations of the world and their boundaries. The book asks the question, What if the British had Won the Revolutionary War? It starts in 1972, so the era is nearly modern. As for the orders, just post them (or PM them, depending on the level of secrecy), if you don’t post within 5 days, your spot is cleared. The template is very simple:

Civilization
Capital
Army Size
Navy Size
Air Force Size
Economy
Government
Diplomatic History

I’m sure most of you what these mean, but for those who don’t , here it is:

Army Size : the size of the army
Navy Size : the size of the navy
Air Force Size : the size of the air forces
Economy : level and stability of economy
Government : the ruling party of the nation

There are different levels of these attributes:

Military
none
minute
small
average
above average
large
huge
enormous
immeasurable

Economy Levels
backwards
depression
recession
stable
steady
growing
booming
World Class

Diplomatic Relation Levels
horrendous
terrible
bad
medium
o.k.
good
perfect


Tips

Air Force
1. To begin building an air force, you need at least a stable economy.

Army Effectiveness
1. To make an army more effective, try upgrading the economy and pouring some funds into the army’s effectiveness.
2. You could also seek help from other nations.

i'll be the Kramer Associates. who are they and how did they get so powerful with such relatively small amounts of land, and why so widespread and such disconnected territory?

[Methril]

They are a company. This is based on a book, in the book they were a superpower. I think you'll have fun playing as them.
