Principia Moderni Treaty
From Emperor Pimpisara II of Hanthawaddy and its posessions to King of Sweden:

The current engagement our countries are in is coming to a halt and Hanthawaddy wishes to engage in a fair treaty. Hanthawaddy has captured most of Norway and Iceland, and it does not appear as if Sweden could regain those territories by fighting, so we wish that the territories be returned to Sweden through peace. The territories shown in red, Hanthawaddy wishes to keep. This includes Iceland and Finnmark as far as the Reisa River. Hanthawaddy will ensure that the traditional way of life of the areas are kept, and Sweden will have a say in how they are managed. Hanthawaddy will renounce claim over the area shown in green on the following conditions:


 * 1) Sweden allows Mons to settle islands off the west Norwegian coast, although the immigration is not to exceed 1,000 per year.
 * 2) Sweden favours Mon products in Swedish ports, allowing Hanthawaddy to account for 30% of the spice trade, and giving Mons living in Sweden privileges equal to those of locals.
 * 3) Sweden promises not to incite further violence in the territories of Toeh Ngoa Nyoing, and as a sign that the promise will be kept, Sweden presents three of its finest whales to Hanthawaddy each year via the port of Purongcham. Detectivekenny (Info; Talk)  19:09, July 31, 2011 (UTC)

American Empire
Greetings,

I was looking at your Imperialist America thing and would like to ask if I could be your other implausibility detector/grammar nazi as I am very OCD and great at both.

Sincerely,

PrinceofPrussia

Sure as long as you take a country and quickly!!

All the players are dividing up the big nonplayer nations and devouring them. But China is still open.

Yeah, I'll take China.

Mabe something could happen where the old Qing governement is pushed firther inland but never disapears like Taiwan(Republic of China) and what we currently call China(People's Republic of China or PRC)-2 chinas could exist-Qing China and Han China if the allies win, and Han china could be open to another player? I will propose a map later today. Qing China could stay its player but with a government-in-exile and mabe Han China could become a new nation? thoughts(respond on my talk page with the same headline please)

Hey, I was not here and I left Bobulgee in charge of the USA, and yet he did nothing, and you cant use your mod powers to win the war, I didnt do that, I am creating a second map game that currently is before the war, my country couldnt have been taken that quickly, its not right. DeanSims 19:00, August 22, 2011 (UTC)

I didn't use my mod powers to win at all. I merely blocked implausability from Russia, China and Austria. China at one point stated they were marching from the Urals to Oslo in one year!!!! I admit Bobulgee didn't take care of your country properly but your side was against Japan, Russia, France, Britain, Prussia and the Muslim Caliphate. We just hit one country at a time on all sides. Austria first, then China and finally the US. Scandinator 21:38, August 22, 2011 (UTC)

Axis vs Allies Revised

 * United Kingdom: The British declare war on the Soviet Union and Poland, and 200,000 thousand troops are sent to help Finland while the British Navy begins attacking ALL Soviet ships and much of its coastline cities. The UK response to the Soiets is that yes you were on the defensive, but how many other nations were on the defensive that you conquered, it is time to teach you communist scum what you deserve. Britain withfraws all penalties from Germany due to the Treaty of Versailes and other treaies thereafter, Germany is given the green light to fully mobilize its entire armed forces and navy to attack Poland asnd the USSR, of which all of European Poland and Russia will be ceded to it, the Baltic States, and Finland. The British Army invades the Soviet Union through Persia, and the army, numbering 200,000 men, begins to destroy the Soviet countryside and cities, hoping that Germany will launch an attack soon though Poland, draining more Soviet-Polish troops to another front.
 * You and I are now allies, I hope you will allow me to use your naval and air bases so I can attack Russia.

From Poland
From Corvin Szabolcs, aka Lech II, King of Poland to the King of Sweden

The engagement between Venice and Hungary is ending, but other is about to begin.I see that you are trying to take over Poland, and i have a offer to make to you.Before the war, you were an ally of Hungary.However, a Civil war (or war of succession, since the objective is simply overthrow him and replace him with me or the crown prince) looks like its about to happen in Hungary.The king is against the already-signed peace treaty between Venice and Hungary and this war proved itself as a disaster, and any more year of fighting would exhaust the remainder of the Hungarian army, and it would end in defeat, since he is terrible with tactics and a somewhat incompetent ruler.Since Hungary will declare war on you anyway, Poland proposes a alliance in trade for your help in overthrow the king of Hungary.Your army can use the Polish cities as a base.However, you won't be allowed any territorial gains on Hungary, but you can make Prussia (a only nominal part of our territory, since it is rebelling against the Polish crown)a vassal state, or part of your territory.--Collie Kaltenbrunner 11:24, September 10, 2011 (UTC)


 * Yes, but the alliance only will be resumed after Béla (the current king of Hungary) is overthrown, and the new king (not defined yet. but will be either Szabolcs or the crown prince András) is crowned, because he (Béla) will be at war with you.i suggest that you move your troops (secretly) in the end of 1653 and start to attack in 1654.--Collie Kaltenbrunner 12:13, September 10, 2011 (UTC)

Shanghai
Even if that were the case it wouldn't help. Between the massive population of the city and the flames, nothing is going to exist within probably 50 miles of the destroyed city. A slightly off airburst would take out the entire city anyways, too. Lordganon 15:13, September 14, 2011 (UTC)

Nope. Fires, Debris, and Radiation, with refugees worse than anywhere on earth. No survivors.

There is a strike recorded near Ningbo. Have a look at the China page. Not sure what it is, but I assume a naval base.

Not only would Hangzhou get a ton of radiation, but near as I can tell, it would get overwhelmed by refugees, given its proximity to strikes, and get raided by the Dragons, or those fleeing them. Unlikely that there's any real number of survivors.

Have a look at the China map on that article. It'd be your best bet to find anywhere you could manage something.

Lordganon 22:24, September 14, 2011 (UTC)

The area is regularly ravaged by the Dragons, various refugees and warlords, covered in radiation, and suffering from the impacts of three separate strikes. You're still talking about the area around Shanghai, where a nation, or even any large number of survivors, is just impossible.

Look at the map on http://althistory.wikia.com/wiki/China_(1983%3A_Doomsday) and think about it.

Lordganon 07:00, September 15, 2011 (UTC)

Radiation does not only go in one direction - sure, it is concentrated in one, but it goes everywhere. You're also completely ignoring strikes that will land radiation right smack on that area.

You have completely failed to get my point about the refugees, fires, warlords, starvation, and above all, the Dragons. All four factors mean that millions die.

Again, have a look at the map on the China page. Have a good, hard look at that area. It is too close to those strike zones, and is right in the path of radiation from the strikes on the Southern Coast. Within a year, combined with the other factors, you are looking at more than 95% dead, probably closer to 99%. Hangzhou would be almost entirely depopulated, far worse than the rest of the region. There is no chance of a state existing there.

With major cities, especially ones the size of Shanghai, you need to remember that a massive death zone surrounds them. The blast will level most of the city, and the fires will take care of the rest within hours. Those who survive flee, causing others to flee as they find them. It is a cycle that lasts for weeks, until enough die off to live. The figures from that are never pretty.

Lordganon 09:35, September 15, 2011 (UTC)

About the only area left on the map that another Chinese state could possibly work in is somewhere along the border between Guangxi and Guizhou. The radiation from the strikes on the capitals of those two provinces, as well as the city of Hanoi in Vietnam, would miss almost entirely.

Lordganon 09:44, September 15, 2011 (UTC)

You are still failing to get the point. The radiation is largely irrelevant.

The radiation would be unaffected by that storm, btw. Have a look at the maps. It did not get anywhere near the area in question until the 28th or so, when it was largely burned out, and when it did, the radiation had already set in or had yet to arrive in force.

It is too close to Shanghai, and the other blasts. All there is to it. I have now even gone out of my way to supply you with a location that works 100%.

Lordganon 10:28, September 15, 2011 (UTC)

"New China" doesn't really make much sense. They are still in China, after all. Guangxi is a Autonomous Region for the Zhuang people, it would probably be best to play that card for the name, identity, etc. of the state.

"Most" is definitely out, too. As would any control over parts of Hunan. Some influence outside of their area of control, as virtually all the Chinese states have, would work as going into parts - not most - of the three provinces, but the core territory would need to be along that border.

Lordganon 13:47, September 15, 2011 (UTC)

Probably, it would remain Guangxi. The state would still have a large Chinese population, have to think of them too.

A probable capital, btw, would be Hechi.

Dear Sweden. We have been watching the rapid Russian expansion and are incredibily concerned. We send an offer to join arms in the period between 1673 to 1682 where we will reveal ourselves. We are a current ally of yours as well. Sweden has the chance to gain huge advantages in land. We are also approaching the nations of Vietnam, Joeson, China (to hit Russia in the east) and Venice and Naples (to help you block Hungary, France and Anglo-Germany if they get involved). You have a vast territory open for possible expansion if you take this deal. Respond on this talk page if you are interested.

Ya, I'm confused, what are the trade routes you "missed" that gained Sweden a 10 point boost in stability? and you are only supposed to count stability every 5 years! not every Turn! So I am resetting the Stability things to their prior positions of 40 and 35 becasue for some reason Sweden ended up with more trade routes than Russia which I find very bizzareLxCaucassus 17:49, October 30, 2011 (UTC)

Hungary has 8 trade routes. There are land routes between Hungary and the following, Venice, AGC, Russia (via Lithuania), Russia (via Caucasians), Venice (Crusader States). Sea routes arrive at Naples, Tunisia and Libya.

Also the stabilty bonus for algorythms are calculated on an Excel spreadsheet EVERY year. I upload the full set of data every 5 as it takes a while. However I will input the current data into the algorythms.Scandinator

yes and they only take effect every 5 years when they are updated, so it doesnt change every year! you seem to change it whenever it is conveniant. Change it in 1705, then 1710 and so on, keep calculating it but it only takes effect on the 5th year, not whenever! and please define Russia's Trade routes pleaseLxCaucassus 21:07, October 30, 2011 (UTC)

Sorry if the last post is bit naggy and if it offended you a bit I didnt mean it but this is what I mean by trade routes: Russia has more than 9 trade routes and i find it strange that sweden has more(no offense), but on my own I could find these for Russia: Russia-Sweden(most probably very closed), Silk road, Russia-china trade, Russia-manchuria, Russia-Turik states, Russia-Kazakhstan, Russia-AGC/rest of europe, Crimea-Rest of europe ,Northeast passage, Oceania-Russia(via pacific), Russia-India(via pacific ocean), Africa-Russia, Canada/Novorossiya-Russia/Lithuania, North America-Africa, Novorossiya-Itsahagi/orthagi, India-Africa,Kazakhstan-India/Persia and so on…that’s more than 9 routes, 15 at least.If I tried I could think of some more.LxCaucassus 21:19, October 30, 2011 (UTC)

Nice Destroyer of worlds title BTW(im not being sarcastic, truely)LxCaucassus 22:21, October 30, 2011 (UTC)

Russia has 9 trade routes. there are 3 land routes with China, two with Hungary, two with Persia, one with each of the AGC and Hanthawaddians. Trade only occurs between player nations as NPN's are in isolation. Sweden has more due to the strategic economic positions of Scotland, Libya and the Netherlands. The Dutch were essentially the Venice of Northern Europe and with Libya opens many routes across Continental Europe and the Med. Sweden proper has only 5 trade routes with 3 from the Scots and Netherlands each and 4 from Libya.Scandinator

You are still forgetting about sea trade, you cant get to scotland without using a boat, you are only counting land routes you shouldnt count Scotland at all(except one with AGC), and who forgot about trade with Itsahagi? even if they are not in play they are still "Player nations" and if you are not counting sea trade LxCaucassus 11:08, October 31, 2011 (UTC)

you forgot about the Northeast passage, and by you logic of by country you should only have one trade route with each nation so your logic on that is bogus. I have 2 trade routes with Hanthawaddy(the colony and the northeast passage). I also trade alot with Itsahagi via Orthagi and the orthagians are basicaly dependant on trade with Russia for their economy, thats 3 routes right there that you "missed"LxCaucassus 13:30, October 31, 2011 (UTC)

It was offered by Baltika to split Japan and China into several parts. They offered this to me, but this just seems stupid. And since we have very similar ideologies, I will do everything to defend chinese and your rights.=====

Stability
One problem I have with the system is that most countries shouldn't have an "effective tax system." That means bureaucracy, with specifically appointed government workers sent to every village, field, and town, to collect a uniform value of taxes. This also implies strict punishment on tax enforcement among other things, and should be money and not crops. Just to avoid excessive controversy, I'm going to limit "effective" taxation to after industrialization stage 3 and only for highly centralized states. If I draw the line anywhere else then it would be too controversial. What do you think?

How is the map going? Detectivekenny (Info; Talk) 01:25, November 11, 2011 (UTC)

More problems I have:

1) War won in less than 5 years/Wars lasting five years: we don't really have any way of determining how long a war will last. Now that I think of it, winning wars should have 0 points, and lost wars should have 500*percent lost.  The reason you are fighting a war is to achieve a certain ends, and it has nothing to do with stability.  However, you might gain trade routes or other valuable commodities.

2) In general, people's stabilities are just getting bigger and bigger with no end in sight. We need to set a cap, or if you're up to it a curve, like maybe the logarithmic curve.

3) We should also differentiate not posting versus a non-improvement turn. The policy since the beginning of the game has been that not posting implies "minor economic improvement."  Thus, not posting can stay at -20, but expansion, military, etc. is usually very costly and should be at -50 per turn.  Posts that include large amounts of colonial expansion but nothing else will also be -20. Detectivekenny (Info; Talk)  19:21, November 11, 2011 (UTC)

Mabe have the Danish military as a whole and some Swedish units pledge allegiance to Karl and then the others keep their allegiance to the Nobles? Russia will back Karl as, even if Russian Tsar Peter Has a grudge with Karl due to the previous war and Finland, Peter Despises the Nobles more. how about it, starting the Swedish civil war?-Lx (leave me a message) 22:54, November 12, 2011 (UTC)

RE
But they would have lots of stuff that they would need to buy from Naples to set up their new nation. They might go into debt for it, but they need to support themselves. But in any case, it would be easy just to say it was blocked, as they can't get through the Danish straights.

How does Sweden control all the Baltic? Anglo-Germany and Russia and Finland all possess Baltic Ports. Together, they could probably at least hold a trade route within the Baltic, even if Sweden could stop up the Danish straights.

The picture is from the video game folklore, and it is really cool. LurkerLordB 16:42, November 13, 2011 (UTC)

Response
It is very obvious that you are not being neutral with regards to anything on that blasted game that your nation is involved in. You may not think so, but it is obviously the case.

Simply put, your actions and behavior have violated the wikia rules on several occasions. I have warned you, repeatedly, to quit. You have not done so. The extent I have been lenient with you is unprecedented, simply because of your age, and that you think you are doing your "job." As stated before, one more step over the line and you will get a vacation - such behavior will no longer be tolerated. Kenny has had to tell you such things, too.

You are harassing and bullying the users of that game, and I am tired of it. Of that there is absolutely no question.

Those who consider themselves free of "bias" are almost never actually so. This is a proven fact.

If ending trouble on this site means losing a "valued contributor" then so be it.

Lordganon 00:29, November 14, 2011 (UTC)

I read what you said to LG too Scandinator. Although I do not regret what I stated (the accusations of bias themselves) I do apoligize if I phrased something in a manner far more harsh than it should have been (as I fear may have been the case). LurkerLordB 01:13, November 14, 2011 (UTC)

All I'm going to say is if we're going to start a huge Wikia-wide controversy, let's at least clear everything up with stability. While Scandinator was probably not completely objective with his stability and algorithms, it is also true that he likely tailored his own country specifically to meet the needs of the algorithm. It is probable that his own actions for his country represent his ideas of stability. So in a sense it is not bias, but appears as so. I'm going to review the stability algorithm once this is over.

@Scandinator, you're not innocent… You probably should not have invaded Finland, and there may be eventual consequences. But overall this thing is a huge headache… so let's not start a controversy. @LG I can handle the conflict as it is on the game, feel free to interject, but we can deal with "harassing and bullying" once this chaos is over with.

Fix Stability
You might have missed this, but I did not add that thing saying that we would just be using the stability curve until the algorithm was fixed on a whim Detectivekenny, under the Finnish, war, stated " The stability curve is 100% objective, so for now we're going to use it, until we can get an objective stability system." That means until you can get the stability thing to be objective, we will use the curve. Since it wasn't objective when he posted that (or else he wouldn't have done so) and since it hasn't been modified in any way since then, it is therefore still not objective. I think some ideas to make it more objective might be to remove the soil quality thing, since that doesn't seem like there is any direct scale to say "this place has good soil, this doesn't" and also maybe define the size thing as well. LurkerLordB 00:51, November 19, 2011 (UTC)

Incas
I don't think you noticed, but I posted that I wanted a small bit of the Incan Empire as well. Since China's main purpose is to get Argentina, I took a part of OTL Chile that was in the south. Also, I thought it a bit unfair for China not to have a pathway to the Atlantic, so I decided to give them a small amount of Swedish Territory in the south and give Sweden a tiny amount of chinese in the north.LurkerLordB 14:50, November 22, 2011 (UTC)

I haven't made the map yet, but my strategy is to take over the entire empire. The plan is to take the area around Cuzco. Since the area is hard to invade, we'll just have to starve the city. At any rate, I was hoping to have borders with some of the black areas, but I am not entirely unhappy with the map Lurker proposed. CrimsonAssassin 00:41, November 23, 2011 (UTC)

Personally, I think it would look the best to just give China all of of the Argentine part except the French area, and give Naples the Part right above the "L" bend, and then give Sweden the northern part around Cuzco, but I figured that Sweden wanted a pathway from the Pacific to atlantic LurkerLordB 02:59, November 23, 2011 (UTC)

West Africa
It would be unrealistic for the borders to have remained the same for so long and then to suddenly change all at once. It would be more realistic for them to have changed during the course of the game. What is concerning me, however, is your constant use of the phrase "leave it to me" in this situation. Every time this is brought up, you say the same thing again and again. This seems to show that you don't want anyone else's imput on what you do (other than Kenny's mandatory imput). Scandinator, it seems unfair for you to just take over what was my idea and not allow any of my ideas or Lx's ideas in. However, just recently you did begin to talk about it on the talk page after I made my remarks there, which I appreciate, but it did seem before as if you wanted to just take over the whole idea, having us all leave it to you, and then just do what you pleased.

Second Swedish Civil War/ War of Swedish Sucession
I would definitely not want to be in your place right now. It's just shameful that our fellow users have plans to divide Sweden amongst themselves while you are still playing. And while I will not get directly involved in your civil war, let me assure you that you have a near-infinite amount of Vietnamese volunteers to help you defeat the warring factions. Would you be able to accept a Swedish Republic? It would be free of undue Vietnamese influence, which is more than I can say about the rest of the players involved.

Scotland
You cannot retake Scotland! That was the agreement, that Scotland would remain totally independent. Remember, you can't do anything now without Galaguerra's approval, as he now controls your government, and his king, who is also king of Sweden, pledged to allow Scotland to remain independent. Furthermore, the Scots are not going to rejoice to be dominated again, they just fought a war for independence. This would be like The American Congress voting to rejoin Britain, totally ASB. That's why I am striking your post down, because it is totally implausible.

This is just like when you abused your moderator powers to attempt to get Prussia to break away from another player nation right after you lost it by a treaty, or when you defied a moderator action to attempt to gain Finland back after being punished by losing it. You need to accept the fact that Sweden will sometimes lose territory, and you need to respect the agreements we reach on the talk page. It's no fun playing the game with someone who just ignores all of our agreements whenever they cause his nation to lose territory. If Sweden just keeps conquering land after land and never loses, it will end up like what you did on Imperial Europe 2. LurkerLordB 22:28, December 18, 2011 (UTC)

Taiwan-Guangxi Relations
What communist nation is this in particular, one thats already made or one that your planning to make? If its based out of Jiangxi or Fujian, especially Fujian, I would have to say that maybe you should look for another area for your nation as canon. Canon dictates that this was pretty much a disaster area and was under some pretty uncivilized regimes. If its a state based further inland in southern China or another SouthEast Asian state I'm interested in your proposal and working with you but Taiwan would definitely be hostile, maybe not physically but this "expedition" would likely get a staredown from the Taiwanese. They claim all of China sans Tibet already, but southern China is definitely their backyard even outside their official borders.

Nevertheless I'd be interested to hear your ideas and please contact me. I will be posting this on both your talkpage and mine but I'd prefer if we talked in this one. Arstar 04:37, January 5, 2012 (UTC)

Sure, lets discuss it on my page.

LG recommended the location to me. I have started work on my Guangxi article. It is near Yunan and claims five of the Chinese provinces; Gunagxi, Guangdong, Hunan, Guizhou and Sichuan. Its communist but moving away from that, when the supreme leader dies the state will become a technocracy. I have loose control over half of Guangxi and Guizhou and part of Hunan.Scandinator

For the record, Scan, Kenny has no say in Macau's affairs. Lordganon 07:35, January 5, 2012 (UTC)

It's Arstar's article. If he's not around, talk to me about it. Lordganon 08:12, January 5, 2012 (UTC)

Thanks LG for offering to help. To Scan, I would size it down quite a bit. Don't build nations by provinces but rather by the towns you are going to have rule the rest. If you could make a map that would be great. Meanwhile I think that all of the Chinese nation editors (including you) should get together to discuss the future of the region since progress on it has been slow moving after 1983DD's recession around January '11. All I'm going to say is that In terms of my two nations in the area "Imperial China" and Taiwanese China" I think that Taiwanese China might get all land-claimy but the Imperialist China might form an uneasy alliance with Guangxi so long as they are anti-Soviet. Arstar 20:45, January 6, 2012 (UTC)

Considering I created the nation, and Yank and Arstar built a basic frame article, then Kenny wrote 90% of the content, I think its unfair to say he has no say in the article considering both I and Yank support Kenny.Oerwinde 00:49, January 8, 2012 (UTC)

I agree with LG. Just because he wrote a lot of it, he still defied the conditions that I gave him in terms of editing it. Arstar 01:16, January 8, 2012 (UTC)

Re:Doomsday Tibet and Yunan relations with Guangxi
Well, I believe that they would not be hostile to them, as they do conduct trade with Nanchung and the Dragon State, so having a fellow communist government next to them wouldn't hurt. They'd probably try and convince them to join their "War with the USSR", though.--Vladivostok 09:18, January 5, 2012 (UTC)

Well, I thought I was done with 1983: Doomsday… I have only a narrow band that Arstarpool allowed me to edit within Macau, so you would have to ask him, if he is even active…  But as self-proclaimed Chief of South Chinese exploration, I will take an educated guess. Macau is willing to create relations with the nation, as Macau can provide valuable outlets for trade in return for raw materials and food. The politics would be very interesting, though, given the diverse parties. I leave you to be creative, just don't stray too far off the article.

Why are you so possessive of the moderator events?
Scandinator, I am recently becoming upset with your behavior once again, but I don't want to start anymore fights, so I want to resolve this peacefully for once. First off, you are not in charge of the moderator events in Principia Moderni, you have no more authority over them than any other moderator. Yet you appear to be very possessive over the moderator events that occur in the game. First, you have now twice changed my posts, without even giving any reason for or even mentioning it beneath it, which should be a common courtesy''. ''Furthermore, you now have recently begun adding them hours in advance to make sure you get to add them first. I'm tired of you doing the vast majority off the moderator events and controlling all of them, and now you control stability and industrialization and the algorithm as well, you just control too much, it seems like you are in charge off everything. That's why you get into so many disputes with other players, it's because anything anyone does is somehow connected to you Can't you please let some other moderators do some things? And at least leave a comment when you change other moderator's posts so it doesn't look like you're doing it for no reason? LurkerLordB 22:03, January 13, 2012 (UTC)

Also, the reason Prussia would be seperate would be for cultural reasons. Mazovia was never part of Anglo-Germany, they would have recieved no English culture like the rest of Germany, and any cultural changes that occured Anglo-Germany wide would be lost. Furthermore, the northern part was ruled by Japan for more than a century. Massive Japanese cultural diffusion would have occured, including that entire region being heavily Schmittist. Many other aspects of Japanese culture would have been absorbed as well. Furthermore,  after Japan lost control, Sweden took over, so they then may have absorbed a small amount of Swedish culture from that brief period (not enough to give them any loyalty to Sweden after so many years though). Finally, Anglo-Germany did take over, but by then Prussia would culturally be no closer to the rest of Germany than the Czechs and Swiss would be, perhaps even less so due to the extremely foreign nature of Japanese culture. Neither the Czechs nor the Swiss would be able to control parts of Germany that are not dominated by their culture, especially if the German parts of their nations outnumbered the Czech/Swiss parts. Your current situation has Prussia controlling an area which outnumbers it, yet possesses a culture with vast religious, cultural, and perhaps even language differences (as Prussian may now be a combo of Japanese and German). They would be unable to control that territory, and it would break away and join either Brandenburg or Saxony.

Plus, Brandenburg was Zagoria's nation. If he did come back post break-up, it seems that it would at least be nice to give the nation he controls a seaport so that he isn't totally surrounded and landlocked. Furthermore, having a superlong, skinny Prussia like that just looks ugly in shape. Why would they have that tiny length to the Atlantic Ocean? I can see how you, not considering cultural differences, would have them take over north Brandenburg, but why that narrow strip to the Atlantic? It just seems strange, and it would make more sense for the unique Prussian culture to break away to form their own nation of just them, just like the unique Czech and Swiss cultures did when they broke away. Imagine the Swiss controlling all of Austria and Bavaria. It just doesn't work. LurkerLordB 05:00, January 14, 2012 (UTC)

Stability List
I know you said you had trouble with the table formatting (with the visual mode edtting of tables half-broken and the source mode really complicated, I can see why) so you said you weren't going to post the stabilities of the nations, however, this makes it hard to estimate whether or not it is feasible to enter a war, or whether or not your nation is about to collapse into revolts. You don't have to do a table, you can just make something like: Example: Or, you could put them on some other site, but it's invonvenient to be inable to make our own algorithms. I'll even make a table if you want me too and give me the numbers. LurkerLordB 22:34, January 17, 2012 (UTC)

 * France-1747 (union with Sweden)
 * China- 1732 (government reform & new nobility&provinces after a rebellion)
 * Nippon- 1750 (independent from Vietnam)

Say, what's the Neapolitan current stability (for the algorithm)? I need to see whether or not it would be feasible to attack Malaysia now, or if I should wait until later. LurkerLordB 01:12, January 21, 2012 (UTC)

We really need a list, like 3 wars are currently stalled because no one knows the stability. LurkerLordB (Talk) 03:08, January 25, 2012 (UTC)

wait, does the new stability for player-states even include population as a factor at all??????-Lx (leave me a message) 03:30, January 25, 2012 (UTC)

Say, what would my stability be in 1801, assuming that every year until then I build up my military and industrialize more due to having to increase production for the buildup and have no more expansion? And can I count on Sweden and its vassals, puppets, and union states to be ready for war by then to honor their agreement with Naples. LurkerLordB (Talk) 23:38, January 31, 2012 (UTC)

About Finland and Kola
The new Emperor of France and King of Sweden, August I Harold, asks the Chancellors of Sweden and its colonies for a confirmation of their loyalty. He also questions how will a war with Kola benefit the Parliament and the Crown? He also says that, if the war is fought and Finland is conquest, it must remain as a independent state under the Emperor (who will be Grand Prince), as Sweden. --Galaguerra1 22:48, January 18, 2012 (UTC)

Ok, I thought so and I diceded I will support you in your campaign to conquest Kola and Finland, but you msut support the campaign of Burgundy to conquest Lombardy and let me conquest Wales for myself. --Galaguerra1 19:39, January 20, 2012 (UTC)

Say, how long is Sweden going to remain under the rule of the French King? For it will take some planning as to who gets what new territory gained. LurkerLordB 22:20, January 20, 2012 (UTC)

I'm thinking about Saarland, or even Hannover. Anyway, I'm ot planning to kep Sweden under my control for ever. Just until Scan considers it necessary. --Galaguerra1 03:00, January 21, 2012 (UTC)

If Sweden&France will promise to help Naples in the war against Malaysia and not get any territory, Naples will help them in this war with no plans to get territory (or, you can give me something in this war and I'll give you something in mine, but I prefer the first offer). Anyways, we should not help Poland in their war, and then wait right afterwards for Russia to beat them, then when Russia has the lowest stability due to the war draining their CSS and their expansion penalty, we attack them at their weakest & take them out. Helping Poland is a lost cause. LurkerLordB (Talk) 02:58, January 23, 2012 (UTC)

Naples, my 2 vassals, and Israel will all join in the war to help Sweden, that give you +9. My main goal is to take out the Malays. Getting more of the Dravidan-speaking parts of Swedish India would be good too, but getting help with Malaysia is more important. LurkerLordB (Talk) 03:46, January 23, 2012 (UTC)

Puppet States on Principia Moderni
Hey, can I get a reason why you think the current system is superior to any of my alternatives? Because the current systesm is really unfair, a user with 1 vassal state is penalized as much as a user with 2+3 puppets. Every other factor into war, good or bad (expansion, military buildup, amount of allies, etc.) all depends on how much of the factor there is or has been. The vassal/puppet state negative is the only thing which has absoutely no change based on amount. Plus it is open to abuse. I don't really care what alternative there is, but why is there such a big support for not changing the system? I don't get it. LurkerLordB (Talk) 01:24, January 29, 2012 (UTC) I don't see why 2 would be so dificult to implement, just for the war (not for the purposes of nation collapse or whatever) subtract the number of vassals/puppets from the total score they get from stability. Or, even better, just not put it with stability at all and have a seperate line in the algorithm for "number of vassals (-1 for each vassal)" which the number would be put (it would have the same effect, and probably be easier to keep track of). Would that change be enough? LurkerLordB (Talk) 02:03, January 29, 2012 (UTC)
 * 1) Good Point, I hadn't really liked this one after thinking about it.
 * 2) Each puppet adds +2 on military, this subtracts -1 for each puppet. So basically what this does is halve the benefit you get from the puppets.  So I don't see why it would be equating to instantly losing, unless you got so many you had less than 1 stability, and since that would be like 20 puppets, that's the problem I'm trying to fix.
 * 3) The point would be to make people make less puppet nations, so if they wanted territory from the black portion they would have to not have as many puppet states.
 * 4) I agree it is probably unrealistic, it was just a prior way to manage large numbers of puppets so I thought I'd include it.
 * 5) THe one I'm trying to delete.
