Night of the Living Alternate History (Map Game)

Welcome to Night of the Living Alternate History, a map game about teamwork, Zombies, warfare, and leading your makeshift country to controlling the remnants of the old world. Please read all rules and guidelines before joining the game.

On October 1, 1968 George A Romero released the film, Night of the Living Dead. Today it is viewed as the beginning of Zombies on the big screen, but what if that’s not all it inspired? In this map game we explore what would happen if a group of scientists decided to recreate some of the effects detailed in this movie...

Even if it means the death of thousands of people.

Please read the Pre-Apocalypse Timeline for information on some nations and events leading up to the start of the game.

If you are new to the game please visit the portal page, where you can find a tutorial and other information.

Here is a copy of the start map with less Zombies on it: Outdated.

Map creation Rules
A few general rules concerning the map so as to ensure "success:"
 * See the full-size version of the map to avoid pixelation.
 * Make all nations different colors.
 * Try to make one for each half-year.
 * Colored circles on nations mean they are a protectorate, client/satellite state, etc. of another nation.
 * It's not always beneficial to draw border lines willy-nilly; if possible, try to find resources displaying previously existing borders.

Changelog and Map Discussion
The changelog and discussion of the map is on the talk page.

Nations
If you have a creative idea for your nation that is not listed here, add it, but make sure you include some sort of back story when you make your first post. Even if an existing nation is not listed here you can still claim it if it is not already claimed. Make sure you read the Pre-Apocalypse Timeline. The United States, (the nation, not the remnants of it) is moderator only as of right now.

The Game
Previous archive: 1986 to 1988.25 See archive section.

1988.50
'The Italian invasion of Venice and Lombardy begins. The Italians manage to push as far north as the city of Ferrara, where the alliance forces have barricaded themselves. The Italian War has begun. '

'The Italian forces are pinned down along the advance toward Ferrari. The Allies successfully defend the city (see algorithm).'

'Switzerland, Croatia and Venice mobilize their forces and deploy them for war in northern Italy. They ask that Austria do the same. Militia from Germany and the Holy Roman Empire are gathered to await further orders.'

'Rafael Gallegos’ followers, armed with weapons from Brazil, continue their campaign in the Guineas. Desmond Hoyte deploys armed forces to help quell violence. He once again asks the UR to remove their claims to the coastline. '

'The government of Salton fears that they may fall into civil war. The eastern section of the nation, the Imperial Valley, and Slab City all have fallen under the sway of Abelino Gutierrez. Armed forces are deployed near the Mexican border, accounting for dozens of deaths. Perceived rebels are executed, although many believe that the military actions are racist.'

'The prize of Los Angeles still remains to be taken. Salton, hoping to improve its forces in case of a civil war, enters San Diego. The city is divided between those from Tijuana, and the northern inhabitants. The border of Salton is expanded so that the southern border is the same as the Mexican-Californian border, while the west border is pushed to Route 15.'

Japan: Japan continues to build up the Self Defence Forces and infrastructure is improved. Some of the Maritime Self Defence Force still continues to patrol around Japan. Synthpop, Electro and Techno continue to rise in popularity. Tatsunori Katsumata continues working on the game. Sega continues creating their next console. The Republic of Kyushu continues to rebuild the island.

Kingdom of Italy: The king goes on tour asking many other nations to help. The Navy is upgraded by 0.25 as troops land in the city of Venice. The official plan for this invasion is that the navy will keep pushing in from the south while the army will push from the north. An elite detachment of the Peatrion guard invades Venice and kidnaps the head Marshall.

Scandnavia: In the light of our ally Italy being invaded we upgrade the military by 0.25. We send mobilizer troops to Croatia and begin an occupation. We have officially honored the Pact of Diamond. Venice also did not meet our demands. '''Note: Rex asked me to post for him in the next three or four days, and he said if Venice invaded or did not make my demands I should invade. Octivian Marius (talk) 20:07, June 6, 2013 (UTC)'''

Republic of Susquehanna: War still rages on as the military attempts to quell the enemy through bombings. Fighters hit a group of pickup trucks, and destroy them as infantry push in. A missile strike in Berwick damages rail lines. The Texan unit is moved back to Danville as a re-inforcement, and the evacuation of Bloomsburg begins. The army upgrades by 0.25 due to increased recruits. The army strenthens by 3000 troops.

Rebels in Berwick are discovered to be armed with M72 Laws, M-16's, K-22 Bullpups, and have Sikorsky UH-60 Blackhawks, F-100 jets, B-17 bombers, and several Point-class cutters refitted as gunboats.

The spy network for the RoS discovers a gun smuggling group that has provided the rebels with arms. Traces back lead them to Venice. After arresting an RoS citizen, it is revealed that the hardware came from Turkey, hoping to overthrow the government, install a pro-Turkish government, then attack the US.

A IED damages the US embassy.

Texas: The exploration group has made it as far as San Diego by now. However, they had to escape from forces of a man named Gutierrez. Some of them perished, and the group is now led by Jeb Bush. He tries to phone home, but the call doesn't go through. Instead, they decide to carry on their mission. They ask the local governments about the situation in California. Personally, Jeb had hoped it wasn't fractured as New Mexico is, but those hopes have been defeated.

Meanwhile, the Presidential primaries have ended. George Bush is the Republican nominee, Carlos Truan the Unionist nominee, and the KNP also has put up a more moderate candidate. George leads the polls, but Carlos also has widespread support. In Italy, troops begin being withdrawn as it becomes increasingly clear that Italy is more interested in invading than it is rebuilding. Some of them are sent to Susquehanna.


 * Kingdom Diplomacy: We would like Texas to stay in the war. Here is proof you should: http://althistory.wikia.com/wiki/Night_of_the_Living_Alternate_History_(Map_Game)#1988.25 and we have bought Phalanx and it is not the Kingdom's fault that we are enemies.
 * Just so you know, the first thing people see with that link is that the terrorist attacks were orchestrated by the government. Bad move. Doctor Evulz (talk) 00:35, June 7, 2013 (UTC)

United Islamic Caliphate: A new subsector in the United Islamic Military Science and Development Department is created, and is the ''United Islamic Military Naval Science and Development Department. ''The reason for their creation is the military wanting to create a new, and large military ship style, hoping to build up a naval presence in the Arabian Peninsula. The industry sector continues to grow, hitting 1.50 from a small economic boom created from a new natural gas mining company. The new company is called NatruG and was supposibly inspired by the Caliph to create their own business, rely on their own profits, and compete against the government in the national markets since the nation has recovered from the civil war and needs much less government help. However, time will tell whether this business venture was a good idea or not. Commonwealth: The gas is to be sold at $80/litre. All those who requested gas are shipped 2000 litres at $160,000 dollars. The president declares that the war against Zombies will climax within the next ten years. Development and expansion continues. We gas the remainder of infected Malaysia.
 * UIC Diplomacy: The Council of the UIC offers to buy one hundred tons of steel from Scandanavia for $175,000\
 * RoS Diplomacy: We offer to sell the UIC 100 tons of steel for $125,000.
 * Kingdom Diplomacy:We would love if the UIC supports us.

Austria: After many months of political campaigning and debating, the Austrian election happens. However, the election is a controversial one and a new re-election is done after the two re-counts were viewed by an independent inquiry to be rigged and full of problems. The new election sets out the future style of Austrian elections and the election process is the pinnacle of modern technology to allow almost no bias and rigging. Anyway, after those months of scandal (a good reason for me not posting the past few turns, no?), the election is won by Deidrich Dopfer. His more liberal style of nationalism appealed to the majority of voters, though this majority was rather minimum. One of his first actions as president is to honour Austria's alliance and troops are mobilized, following the suit of Switzerland, Croatia and Venice.

Northern California: Californian monarchists file a not-guilty plea for Anita Klaubarg, which they think had Habsburg blood. However, the Desert Republic continues to expand. The failure of the federation with the Bay Republic extinguishes almost every hope of unification, which caused President Ronald Reagan to announce his resignation. But the National Assembly and Prime Minister Manuel Perez encourages him to stay in power.

East Africa: East African forces amass outside of the ruins of Dodoma for their planned assault on the city. The industry is developed by 0.25 to 0.75, and the construction of light armored vehicles begins in the capital city of Zanzibar. The government program to expand the population continues with strict criteria set out by the government, with increased rations provided to women who agree to join the program, and the military service for men willing to start a family lowered from ten to five years. Men who father ten children are granted a two-year tour of duty instead of five, and those who father twenty children are exempt from military service.

Wu: Army builds up and modernizes. Tractors are used in farming and massive water projects begin in the Yangtze river. Settlers arrive in the freed provinces. Exports resources. Quiet Year.

Chan Santa Cruz: We push north slightly from Mexico City, reaching Tuxpan on the east coast. We also reach the west coast at Zihuatanejo. Fortification takes place.

1988.75
'Deidrich Dopfer is elected Austrian speaker of the house, with Arnold Schwarzenegger as his vice speaker of the house. Dopfer’s ideology, known as Progressive-Nationalism, becomes popular among the people of Austria. While heavily nationalist, the new regime incorporates elements of progressive ideology. Dopfer is extremely popular, opposed only by hard-line nationalists and radical liberals. '

'100,000 Croatian veterans of the Yugoslavian conflict are deployed to Venice. Reserves are mobilized to defend the coastline from attack.'

'Yugoslavia, which was severely weakened by zombies and the Croatian revolution, officially falls apart. Bosnia erupts in civil war, with Communists and Democrats meeting across the nation. Serbia remains mainly intact, aiding the Bosnian resistance. Montenegro declares its independence, although is claimed by Serbia. No clear government in Slovenia rises to power, leaving the nation governed by a transitional communist government, under fire from several factions. The nations of Bosnia and Croatia both place claims to Slovenia, with Croatia even stationing some troops inside the nation.'

'The nation of Malaysia thanks the Commonwealth for their assistance in clearing their nation. Soldiers are recruited to scout on the ground for large concentrations of zombies. Some Malaysian soldiers begin to report strange side effects from the gas attacks. Soldiers report severe dehydration and fatigue. A few causes are also found resulting in cancerous tumors.'

'The Northern Californian government asks Ronald Reagan, their most charismatic leader to continue ruling the nation. He reluctantly accepts after Prime Minister Brown states, “California isn’t yet unified, but you’ve unified our people.”'
