Berlin-Denmark War
can you figure the algorithm for the Berlin-Denmark war? France, USG, Flanders and Nubia have joined on Denmark's side. Andr3w777 00:00, May 30, 2012 (UTC)

I northern Africa, they are sending supplies to France via Italy (and some military aid I think Andr3w777 00:18, May 30, 2012 (UTC)

How would Wales- a Celtic nation- vassal South Ireland(also Celtic) our ancestry is similar historically isn't it? I am curious because Wales wants to expand while avoiding war. Andr3w777 17:44, May 31, 2012 (UTC)

Sorry about the confusion. I attempted the alogorithm and got it partially correct, then i saked Ezra to correct my mistakes. I took control of Wales in 1911 if that helps you. Andr3w777 20:23, June 2, 2012 (UTC)

Re: Georgia
Anybody can come and start controling Georgia, I will not object, and I will not do anything to stop it, that was the point. and I am not stopping anyone from asking to control poland either, they are just in personal union with Russia. ask a friend to take control of them if you want, i couldnt care less-Lx (leave me a message) 01:50, June 4, 2012 (UTC)

Your revolts in Georgia are actualy making me fast-track my original plans for a "Russian Commonwealth". Around 1930 Ukraine will ask for Commonwealth State Status, then soon after Kazakhstan will follow, and then Lithuania, and thats about it unless you can see another state that can be formed.-Lx (leave me a message) 01:56, June 4, 2012 (UTC)

What I was doing was saying that All the South Caucassian Lands are no longer uner russian control, and it is more like a "you are now part of Transcaucasia, if the Georgians want out, its no longer russia's problem"-Lx (leave me a message) 02:04, June 4, 2012 (UTC)

And also, the choices you gave me are rather insulting: you go to war, or your country is completely destroyed by a domino effect of you let that go why not us(thats how I understood it).-Lx (leave me a message) 02:06, June 4, 2012 (UTC)

The commonwealth is still going to be created, georgia is just probably going to go screw that when its all done and then russias just going to get fed up and stop dealing with it, is that good? But the commonwealth will be created, maybe without the part labeled Gruzia(my best attempt at drawing the modern borders of Gerogia without south osetia and Abkhazia, witch are not realy georgian peoples).-Lx (leave me a message) 02:21, June 4, 2012 (UTC)

I decided to go the easy route, and I added this at the end and uncrossed my post, is it ok?

Georgia however, is just not realy moving, and nearly a week after the creation they start rumbling again. Russia gets fed up with it and says its no longer their problem, The Weak Trascaucasian Governement does noting, and after long strife, Georgia is finaly independant. Lenin resigns and Trotsky steps up as Chancelor.  Iosif Vissarionovich Dzhugashvili(Stalin) Steps up as the Leader of Georgia, and starts to act just as he did in OTL. -Lx (leave me a message) 02:31, June 4, 2012 (UTC)

Question (PM)
Hello.

Is it okay if I re-edit 1918 and 1919? I accidentally wrote Tenshi Mäkeläinen instead of Katriin Mägi (Tenshi Mäkeläinen was only Prime Minister of the Republic of Kazami, and the Eesti Vabariik didn't had it's Prime Minister changed yet.) I know that past turns are not to be allowed to edit, but I made a mistake in putting Tenshi Mäkeläinen for Eesti Vabariik when it was supposed to be Katriin Mägi. -Kogasa 20:24, June 4, 2012 (UTC)

As long as you have more mod events for the NPCs than we currently have in PM1 in PM2, then I'm game. It just bugs me how you have player nations doing stuff, and the NPCs don't react at all hardly. Its not life like at all VonGlusenburg (talk to Von!) 22:16, June 4, 2012 (UTC).

Welcome Back (PM)
Her Lurker, welcome back from your break. As you can see, Bharat has been busy. A nuclear project and arms race is going on and Dravidia has begun its production of its own aircraft. You might want to state the production finishes and it starts to become mass-produced. Bharat already has its own Spitfire and Hurricane counter-parts, and the plane Dravidia is producing is a Messeschimt 109 counter-part. I have also managed to keep expanding Dravidia's colony and it has seems to have done well.

In other news, Onguayal and the USA along with Kwasihirio have been at work in South America to give Imperial powers the boot. Also, Australia is now also in a dynastical union with Bharat after its war with the country and the following negociations (there was quite a bit of roleplay, lol). Afghanistan has started research on how to condense water-vapour into clouds to form rain so its rains more and the country gets to grow more crops.

Apart from all this, the union of Bharat, Dravidia, Afghanistan and Australia has been given a new name, the United Kingdom of Hindustan (I know it should be Empire but oh well). Bengal has also come under Bharat's protection after a government change which had something to do with Bharat. The country is right now getting back up onto its feet.

That's all I think. Is there anything you would like to ask? :D Imperium Guy 12:18, June 23, 2012 (UTC)

Easternised World question
Hello.

Do you think there will be a or a Touhou Project equivalent in the time-line, or no? If so, can I make a proposal page for it if it's okay? -Kogasa 17:30, June 24, 2012 (UTC)


 * I'll be sure to keep it in mind. Anyway, I made the proposal page here already. I plan to make the series different from OTL, and since the OTL Touhou Project has only very few Western elements (examples: Palace of the Earth Spirits is a Western-styled mansion and the Scarlet Devil Mansion is a European-styled mansion), it should be very easy to take out/change. If there are any problems, let me know. -Kogasa [[Image:Symbol of Natori, Miyagi.png|23px|border]][[Image:宮城県.png|23px|border]][[Image:Flag of Japan.png|23px|border]] 19:22, June 24, 2012 (UTC)

1450 (PM II)
I think that the map was designed by you, and i have lots of errors to report.such as:
 * existance of non-existing yet states such as:
 * Sibir (1490)
 * Uzbek Khanate (1500)
 * non-existance of still existing nations sych as:
 * Oyo (1400)
 * Despotate Of Epirus (only was annexed in 1479.)
 * Nogai Horde (broke off from the Golden Horde circa 1440)
 * Serbian Despotate (annexed in 1459)
 * League of Lezhë (founded in 1444)
 * wrongly designed borders
 * Hungary/Moldavia/Wallachia (smaller than it was) /Bosnia (on OTL Croatia.)/Croatia (on northern Croatia/Hungary)
 * Ryazan is south from where it actually was.
 * Kazan may be actually northeast of its actual location.
 * In OTL, the Akan states only occupied a area roughly equivalent to Ghana and Ivory Coast.In the map, they got to Guinea-Bissau.

among some other smaller errors. i already corrected some of them, and also were those Russian states (Pskov, Muscovy, Novgorod, Yaroslavl, Ryazan, Rostov, Tver), as people would assume that only Novgorod and Muscovy existed.when i tried to correct it, finding a map of the area was very difficult.This was just to warn you of the errors present, and that i couldn't add the subtitles. (in the proccess of editing Moldavia, i lost their subtitles, and i didn't managed to add one for Serbia or Oyo.--Collie Kaltenbrunner 16:25, June 25, 2012 (UTC)

Yes. I will try to make more corrections, such as finding a map of the Timurids so i can see what their borders were, and then, set the borders of the Golden Horde (correction of Kazan's position included), and overall, try to add nations.specially on Southwest Asia.By the way, Do you use MS Paint?--Collie Kaltenbrunner 21:45, June 25, 2012 (UTC)

No. Between the impact of the democratic changes happening around them, and the movement of military forces, not possible.

The Soviet military would not have let it happen, either.

They broke up my country in PM!!! I was not on for awhile due to internet issues and had no possible way of editing my posts. How do I undue this? It seems really unfair.

Excuse Lurk, Andrew current argument is this: It is implausible for Ireland to leave the PCU because Ireland's national party holds a great majority of the parliament and Ireland's national party members have been the PMs since the collectivist revolt.

Russian States in PMII
I looked at the map, and its a pretty good job, but The Russian States and Lithuania are not very well represented(especialy novgorod). Novgorod is not badly done, but its territory does extend to the Urals. I don't mean to be rude, but I put RUssian states indented and under one heading(not realy, just Russians states in bold). If its ok then I'll edit the map for Russia and Lithuania according to these maps, if not, then please try to make them look a bit like this. I think that Lithuania extends to far east, and thati where moscow is supposed to be, but I recongnize the difficulty in actualy making a working map form scratch, I did georgia and that took a lot of time. I cant imagine what doing all of the world was. Russian states bordered the Chrimea khanate in every map of this era that I found, and on this one it doesnt. I'm sorry if any of this comes out as rude, but its becasue i'm not sure that I can edit the



actual map.



I have a question in regards to PM II, why not end the game in 1999 or 2000 instead of 89, i mean it is recent but it is still the past. I was just curious about it. Shouls i continue the propaganda in Britanny now the France might be back?Andr3w777 06:10, June 29, 2012 (UTC)

You are correct. 'And another thing... ' was written by E. Colfer in 2010 (I think)

Hungary in PMII
Hey, I've been researching the 15th century history of Hungary for the past two days, and I'm wondering if I could play as Hungary in PMII. Doctor261  (Talk to Doctor261) 13:22, June 29, 2012 (UTC)

Yeah, I know, but when I signed up as Hungary yesterday, when I looked there today, I've noticed that my name was removed from it. :P Doctor261  (Talk to Doctor261) 13:27, June 29, 2012 (UTC)

Ah, alright then xD It explains everything on that matter then. By the way, from what I understood Sigsimund(ruler of Hungary until 1437) was a king of Bohemia, what's the situation of Bohemia in 1450? I couldn't really find any sources. Doctor261  (Talk to Doctor261) 13:49, June 29, 2012 (UTC)

But, was it actually the part of Hungary, or...? Doctor261  (Talk to Doctor261) 13:59, June 29, 2012 (UTC)

Can you give me an idea, on how should it be done? I mean, what should I do, to make it fully plausible. As from what I'm thinking, I'd just connect Bohemia in 1453 into Hungary, and then I'd have to do something about "rebels"? I'm not quite sure. Doctor261  (Talk to Doctor261) 04:35, June 30, 2012 (UTC)

Hello? Lurker? :D Doctor261  (Talk to Doctor261) 13:55, June 30, 2012 (UTC)

Can I do it in 1450, or should I wait for 1452/1453 for some reason? Doctor261  (Talk to Doctor261) 14:15, June 30, 2012 (UTC)

Well, I have no huge desire of being an empire(yet), but Bohemia was on my list of interest, so I guess I'll go with uniting. What should I know about uniting by the way? What are the conditions and the aftermath of uniting? Doctor261  (Talk to Doctor261) 14:46, June 30, 2012 (UTC)

I see. But would there be some kind of way to get the out of HRE and then invade them with my forces? Doctor261  (Talk to Doctor261) 15:02, June 30, 2012 (UTC)

PM II and former colonies/Sovereignity defense league (PM I)

And the rest?How can we assure that other nations won't colonize them after their indpendence?--Collie Kaltenbrunner 07:33, June 30, 2012 (UTC)

Micronationalism exists everywhere, that doesn't mean it always succeeds. We do not even have many supergiant empires in this game. Example: America even today has Mexican nationalists in the Southwest (New Mexico, Arizona, Mexican Cession lands, Texas) but you don't see California, Nevada, Utah, Colorado, Arizona, New Mexico, and Texas seceding and joining Mexico or forming a new nation. They are still part of America. Furthermore, a lie is a lie when someone presents it as a fact. I stated it once and as my opinion, and I am entitled to my opinion.

And as a side note, I will tell you that all the part of Denmark (Denmark, Sweden, Greenland) are similar: they are all Scandinavian (or have Scan. people in Greenland's case), they are all Nordic, they have one majority religion, one culture, etc, etc.

As a last not, if I have offended you, please accept my apology.

Bengali Discussion
I don't hate them, but Muslims are a huge problem for Bharat, as we are trapped from all sides. So what should I do now? :/ Imperium Guy 16:34, June 30, 2012 (UTC)

I'll let Akaran break away from Bengal, but I don't need to give Bengal semi-autonomy as it is not even a part of Bharat, just a protectorate. I will place the muslims at around 70%, its a stretch but I think it is enough. All I need to do now is handle the country well. :D Imperium Guy 22:40, July 1, 2012 (UTC)

BTW, I saw what you said about the conquering of the country next to Bhutan. I did not conquer that country, it is just Begal's vassal.

I also plan to impose an aparahiet system in Bengal when the Prime Minister would impose segregation by religion (he will be Buddhist). A Nelso Mandela figure will arise, in the form of a Buddhist Agnostic. However, the government would be doing this to increase Buddhists, and over the years there will be a increase. Back to the Nelson Mandela figure. He will be exiled to New Hattanwaddy, but will eventually return in the 90s.

By this time, the Bengalis have been succesful(ish) in their goal and only 35% of the population remain muslim. Still, he manages to do what Nelson Mandela did and he ends Aparthied and make the country secular. Then, the country will hold a referendum to join Bharat as an SAR in the late 00s and will narrowly pass. After that I don't know!! :D Imperium Guy 13:22, July 2, 2012 (UTC)

C'mon I said 70% muslim (I added the "its a stretch" bit after it as well). I will say to around 45% then. I will aslo say that more of the muslims which have changed religion became free-thinkers (around 20%) as their belief in allah dwindled because he did not "save" them from aparthied. This will also happen with the Buddhists, mind.

But I think having the figure as a Buddhist would gve it more of a twang if you know what I mean (I did say he was agnostic). He might become more agnostic and maybe even come into the free-thinker category starting the "free-thinking revolution".

About the genocide, no. There might be some in the choas when the nation is entering Aparthied but none will be carried out by the government intentionally or officially.

What do you think now? :/ Imperium Guy 14:47, July 2, 2012 (UTC)

The Buddhists will be hit. But its a shame that they wouldn't rally around him cause it would have been brilliant if he would have started of the revolution.

On second thoughts, the muslim Nelson Mandela figure could begin the "free-thinker revolution" as well, could he not? :D Imperium Guy 17:33, July 2, 2012 (UTC)

PM II Lithuania
I changed from Hungary to Lithuania as Imperium suggested to me. Is there any way to play as Poland, and if not, any way to fully annex Poland in some kind of way? Even though they both were equal, it says that Poland was dominant power. Is there any way of civil war then, or anything else? Doctor261  (Talk to me!) 04:12, July 4, 2012 (UTC)

Then, do you think there is a way for Poland-Lithuanian Commonwealth become powerful? Also, look at this. It says that there was no dynastic union(commonwealth) before 1569!!! Doctor261  (Talk to me!) 04:31, July 4, 2012 (UTC)

Strange thing. Even tho I knew a lot about Polish-Lithuanian history, I hear of Casimir IV first time. I only knew about Jogaila so far. But alright. So basically I can control both Poland and Lithuania fully? So I'll just follow the basic successor-predecessor timeline by Wikipedia? Also, do you think it would be possible to defeat Teutonic Knights and then Pskov at the beginning of the game? :P (Hungary is too hard subject for me to research xD) Doctor261  (Talk to me!) 04:48, July 4, 2012 (UTC)

I followed your advise about Britanny, when would be a good time to have them slit. I am open to optionsAndr3w777 (talk) 02:19, July 5, 2012 (UTC)

Just a heads up on the sign ups, you say personal union for a lot of nations but in reality it was one nation taking over another's foreign affairs. Poland led, and so did Denmark in theirs. If it is ok with you I can fix these up as I have multiple sources on the Middle Ages. Scandinator (talk) 10:49, July 6, 2012 (UTC)

There is too big a difference between dynastic unions, personal unions and vassals. Vassals usually have a leader that must obey certain types of orders from their liege kingdom. These can vary but the usuals arefollowing the leading kingdom in foreign affairs and wars. Personal Unions are two nations that share the same king who rules both nations however they can't integrate the two nations into one unless a signficant period of time has passed under a stable rule allowing cultural assimilation and dilution. Dynastical unions are two nations that share the same family but are ruled by different people. They usually co-operate much better in times of crisis but schisms can occur and one may attack the other.

To govern the various types of unions and vassals I propose the following rules. Vassals must obey every word of their liege kingdom unless occupied by another kingdom or going up against unbeatable odds. Personal Unions will listen to the leading kingdom's every word as they are ruled by the same king, however in wars, occupation by a foreign nation and unbeatable odds there is a large chance of revolt in the kingdom that the king did not originate from (eg Hungary revolts in Austria-Hungary). In dynastical unions the senior member of that dynasty has greater influence and the junior member acts like a vassal in wars but can revolt in peacetime and start a war against the senior branch of that dynasty. Scandinator (talk) 01:28, July 7, 2012 (UTC)

Also how did you put the words on the map? I can't do that without blurring the words and the image around the word. Scandinator (talk) 01:33, July 7, 2012 (UTC)

About Japanisation of PMII
Thanks. I guess ever since you told me to stop copy pasting, I have tried to be more detailed with my posts. Even though I still copy paste, I try to add something new if I can (and if I have any ideas). ^^

I know. Though the only reason why I did it is because Japan itself was conquered at the time, and I wanted to really play as Japan. Though, I ended up taking Finland. Since I wanted to have a Japanese-styled nation, I asked Japan for an alliance and to have Kōchi (city in Kōchi Prefecture, Japan) as a trading post, and went from there. Though at least I had Finnish paganism have a revival, and kept a few of the Finnish cultures, I know that it still was unlikely. I know it was all implausible, and I'm sorry for that.

As for the Shinto/Japanising Thailand in the next game, I wasn't planning on it, don't worry (it's still an East/South East Asian nation, and I usually intend to play nations from that region, if I can't get Japan itself to play). And actually, I did wanted to play as Japan in the next game, but Yank beat me to it, hence why I chose Thailand instead. I'll try asking him if he can switch nations. If not, then I can go with option two or three. -Kogasa 17:21, July 6, 2012 (UTC)

I was actually thinking about that, having the Ainu become an empire and being Japanised, but I wasn't sure if you would have accepted it or not.

I'm also interested in having Japan be split into two. As long as I have Shikoku and maybe Kyushu it be fine for me. I'll think I'll take the Japan split in two option instead. :D -Kogasa 18:47, July 6, 2012 (UTC)

Spread of Communism
Hello Lurk, I don't who else I can resort to, but you came to my mind first.

A couple of the users in the Spread of Communism Map Game deleted the game's content. They erased all the users and started a whole brand new game.

I'm not too sure what should be done about this, but as of now, I, as the last remaining active mod from the original game, have banned the leaders of this movement from the game temporarily. They are Scandinator, Stewdio333, and RWG.

Please help me, because I don't know what to do right now, with the game's creator GRSGov currently inactive. I am seeking your counsel because I know you are both an admin and an active map gamer, so I think you are fully capable of making the right decision.

If I shouldn't have done anything to them, please tell me and I will undo it immediately and apologize to them.

If further action should be taken, tell me and I will see if I can do so.

If you could please help me in this situation it would be greatly appreciated. :)

Hey, Lurk, with all this Wonderlaand stuff going on in PM, do I run the risk of losing Sweden?

He curently says that he poured billions of Kronas into funding Swedish seperatist parties, then I told him that unless some folks from Wonderlaand got in there, there would not have been any seperatists to begin with.

Currently I'm pondering war with Wonderlaand, with the intentions of replacing Wonderlaand's current government. Would the SDL step in in this case? (Lol, "in in")

Syngraféas Enallaktikí̱ Istoría, Dic mihi lingua Anglorum. 18:07, July 9, 2012 (UTC)

Well, Von said that he did pour billions of dollars into the effort when I said "there are little to no seperatists in Denmark" and he responded along the lines of "I poured billions of Krona into the effort and you're saying there are no seperatists?"

Well, I do suppose that could free me over worrying over war. In fact I was close to asking him where he got all the money from.

Syngraféas Enallaktikí̱ Istoría, Dic mihi lingua Anglorum. 18:16, July 9, 2012 (UTC)


 * I said millions of Krona not billions of dollars for starters Scraw. Secondly I mean like 10s millions not the 100s of millions that you've probably got in your head. And its like 7 krona to 1 US dollar using today's conversion rates in OTL anyway so its not that much. Thirdly this is over the cause of the past 8 years while Wonderlaand has been supporting Swedish independence, not millions every year. Finally why would a government spend so much for something like this, that it would put themselves into financial difficulty? Wonderlaand is in no way spending the amounts which would put themselves into economic troubles, that was never my intention.


 * I thought by now there would of been a mod event showing Swedish revolt seeing how Wonderlaand have been supporting Swedish independence since they got independence in 1947, and they've also been supporting it while as a colony of Nippon too (albeit not as much as they have been doing since independence). I've been doing this for 8 years now and a lot of propaganda has been sent. If Norway, got independence, then how come Sweden a nation which to be one of the world's greatest powers, has successfully rebelled against Finnish rule, not decided to rebel against Denmark when they know there declaration of independence would definitely have foreign support? VonGlusenburg (talk to Von!) 19:17, July 9, 2012 (UTC)
 * Ah, millions' and not billions'''. Meh. I'd estimate you'd have spent at least 63 million US dollars by now, although my former math led to believe that the number was closer to 910 or something.
 * Also, as I said, it's because they don't give a cent and don't want it either. Norway got it, simply put, because, Denmark was weak then. Besides, once I asked why Norway left and not Sweden. Sweden was weak, ravaged war-torn, in an economic slump, crime was rampant all over the place, again, they were far too weak to pull it off.

Deletions
Just wondering - why do we delete pages? I mean, I get that some are deleted to keep the site looking nice, but others, like defunct map games, I would think would be kept for future reference. I don't care either way, just curious. CourageousLife (talk) 18:17, July 9, 2012 (UTC)

SoA 5 does not qualify for deletion: "If a game goes defunct (Hasn't been edited in 7 days), hasn't advanced past 10 turns, and can't be successfully revived, place a " " template on the page."

The game advanced well past 15 turns so it doesn't meet deletion requirements.

Principia modeni Mars
Well, realisticaly, the only reason we arent at mars yet is because we spenr money on the Space shuttle(witch costs a lot of Moulah to operate...witch is why it was shut down and US now pigybacks on Russian Rocketrs) rather than going to mars in rockets. So realisticaly, you could argue that its either Mars or the Shuttle for one side in the Asia-Europe Pseudo-cold war. Also, if the Emperor of Russia becomes the Danish Ruler, then the process would be similar to Joining the Russian commonwealt(as what happened to Whales).

Dear LurkerLord,

It's been a while, and I'm looking to have some insight on other's ideas.

I took a look in the List of Althists and I couldn't find anything, and I figure there must be a bunch of orphaned articles that haven't even been added to the list yet.

So, do you know some Althists that I could adopt? If you could get back to me on this, it'd be great.

Thanks,

PMII Map
I have spent the last 3 days in three different libraries looking for elusive maps of the time period 1445-1455. Needless to say, after going to the three biggest libraries in Sydney, I found maps that cover small patches of the world. I now have enough mini maps to form a world picture and fix the borders of all the states in; Europe minus HRE minors (as in the tiny ones), America minus Mississipi states (which had all collapsed by the last 15th century), Africa and Asia. If you allow me to then I will fix up the map to 1450 but I estimate it will take two months (uni entrance tests in early August plus OCD). If having the map on the week before PMII is launched is too tight for you then I will give all the maps I have gathered to someone else. But be warned, I sourced about 60% of the maps from French and German books (I have a basic grasp of both languages) so I was wondering if you are fine with letting me rework the entire map over the next two months? I sent this to Collie too. Thanks Scandinator (talk)

Most nations are only getting slight modifications but there are many player nations heavily affected. Brandenburg is two times larger than in 1450. Scraw has already picked it. Novogrod (Lx) should be quite a bit larger on the eastern side at the expense of Moscow. And about half the African states don't exist yet. The Incan Empire (Yank) is also about three times too large and France (RWG) is a lot smaller as this map has not shown English (Gala) held territory in the hundred years war and part of Burgundy is lumped into France; Bavaria is also quite a bit too big (Andr3w), Muenster (no-one yet) is massively oversized in the north of HRE, Venice is undersized (me lol) and a lot of the other Balkan and Italian terriotries are too small or too big or non existant on the map. China (Crim) needs to be a bit bigger on the map and the Ottomans are too big in Asia Minor (Dean Sims). Aztec (Kunarian)  and Maya are also too big. India and the Middle East need some resizing with missing nations and border fixes. Cambodia is too big and some SE Asian states are non-existant. Indonesian states are too small. Thats kinda all the major changes... The only region not getting a big change is the Iberian Peninsula.

So it kinda seems quite a few players have indentified "larger" nations and picked them -.- SE Asia is really accurate for 1400 and I think you worked off the maps on the net? The problem with them is that they are REALLY limited and vague on years. Thats why I use libraries, head to 911 on the Dewey System for Historical Maps. I think we should add a warning onto the signup list and I'll contact the player nations majorly affected if you want. Also I am proposing giving player nations an idea of what their nation has been through so far before they start. It seems really unrealistic if France and England suddenly became friends before the 1600s, they fought countless times in OTL history and WWI was the first time they allied together O.O. Scandinator (talk) 08:31, July 11, 2012 (UTC)

The biggest nations that no longer exist are Naples, Sicily, Most of the african ones, several in SE Asia and India. But most of the changes are adding nations and shrinking borders. No player nation is non-existant in 1450 though some die out within 50 years. Scandinator (talk) 09:12, July 11, 2012 (UTC)

What's Scandinator saying is true, and I also think that it could be a good idea to play as regions if your nation is annexed/occupied, for example as I play as Australia in PM1. It was part of Bharat for many years now.  Doctor261  (Talk to me!) 09:21, July 11, 2012 (UTC)

Venice needs more land on the Italain Peninsula at the expense of Milan. They also need shriking on the Greek Peninsula. There's one nation in Burma that no longer exists and a few more in India, sorry I lumped them together and just said SE Asia and India. For Indonesia we need to add the vassal states. I have a map of Atjeh and the rest of SE Asia in 1450 so I'll use that. Brunei is fine as it is. I just saw too much black in Indonesia so I assumed the states were too small but then I looked at the map I found and saw we were missing a couple of other states. I assumed Naples still existed since their name was on the signups still. Also should we contact the other players about their nation's size decreasing or increasing? Scandinator (talk) 22:10, July 11, 2012 (UTC)

I misread one of the maps... It said Burmese Kingdoms and grouped two of the states together. My bad. Scandinator (talk) 08:54, July 12, 2012 (UTC)

Scandinavia vs. Hanover and Flanders (PM)
Hello Lurk. Apparently Schlewsig-Holstein, a predominantly Nordic are, has joined with Hanover. I am sending propaganda to convince the area or even the whole of Hanover into joining my nation. How long would this take? Is it plausible? I know Hanover is a predominantly German area, but I want to go to war with it, take Schleswig Holstein, overthrow Hanover's government, and make it a puppet or client state. Will the SDL step in?

Also, I know Flanders is French, and hardly Nordic, and that Japan colonized in the past, but I want to get back the area that Sweden used to control in the days of Scandinator. I am sending propaganda there too. Plausible? Possible? If yes, how long will it take?

Also I am requesting that Israel join the Europe-Asia War.

Doctor261 and Seven Years' War Game
Since you play The Seven Years' War the Map Game, and also understand that this game was created to see the French side win, I decided it would be best to come to you. Doctor261 has accused of me of making biased mod actions to make a certain side win on the game. That put me on his blacklist for a year. Then on his talk page I told him that the game was created for Britain to lose. He removed the message, calling it spam. Thoughts? Reactions? I honestly have no idea what to do with this situation. Syngraféas Enallaktikí̱ Istoría, Dic mihi lingua Anglorum. 05:05, July 23, 2012 (UTC)

Your blacklist is why I told you what I told you, which is why you erased what I told you, which is why I came here.

Aid in PMII
So I know that we're both playing the 2nd PM game, but since this will be the first time I will be playing a full on game of this scale, I just have a few questions here, both about how to play and more nation specific ones: If you could answer those questions, that would be good. I think I might have more questions, but so far I forgotten them.
 * How easy is it to make dynastic unions? Is it just "XXX of the Kingdom of XXX marries XXX of XXX?
 * How exactly did the whole Japanese-Finland thing come together anyway? Is that likely to happen again?
 * At the start of the game, how strong is the HRE? I know that the states have difficulty getting along, but if someone invaded them, could they win?
 * Assuming that the three strongest states of the HRE work together to centralize the union (you know our plan I think), how long would it take, realistically?

Monster Pumpkin (talk) 16:59, July 23, 2012 (UTC) Okay. Thanks! Monster Pumpkin (talk) 23:29, July 23, 2012 (UTC)
 * 1) I assumed the religious thing, but here is another question: "Suppose John of England, who was married to Anne of Scotland, marries Constance of France. His son by his previous marriage marries the Welsh king's daughter." I am assuming that France and England would enter a union, and then England and Wales would join a union when the son became the king. Is that right?
 * 2) Okay. I was unsure how that happened, and I felt it was kind of unrealistic.
 * 3) I figured. So if all the states work together, we're basically the strongest state in Europe?
 * 4) I have a plan to handle the Protestant Reformation. How long do you think it would take to unify the HRE by force, diplomacy, or both?
 * 5) Monster Pumpkin (talk) 22:54, July 23, 2012 (UTC)

Wait, I have one more question. Do personal unions still have to have their countries border each other? I know that the two countries would fare better if they were, but sometimes they occured regardless of that. Monster Pumpkin (talk) 00:55, July 24, 2012 (UTC)

PMII Map
I have been working on the map for a little while and it is looking good. I have standardized a new base map (turned it black and white with no other pixels) and am drawing in borders for Europe. I will post pictures after I finish Europe to the PMII page under the current map of PMII. Scandinator (talk) 12:08, July 25, 2012 (UTC)

BTW, this is what I have so far. The blue outline is the French royal controlled areas including dynastical fiefdoms and the Imperial border can be seen in purple. Scandinator (talk) 13:56, July 25, 2012 (UTC)

Italy, Greece and Japan are done. Also I'm filling in colours since Collie complained about lack of colours last time. Therefore I will use the 216 web colour system to be able to relatively easily obtain decently distinguishable colours for many nations. Scandinator (talk) 12:34, July 26, 2012 (UTC)

France had a similar case to the HRE which is there were multiple states and only one could hold the French throne due to the amount of decentralisation that occured during the 100 years war. In Ireland there are only three states rather than the six that first appear. The English Pale, pro- Anglo-Irish states (essentially vassals) and normal Irish states. In Italy there were enough tiny states to be annoying to draw out but not enough to lump them together since many were too spread out. I'm not going to even try to draw them out for the German ones... I'd say give it 25 turns and most microstates would be annexed. The French and HRE are the only regions with a coloured border since those are the only regional unions formed without personal or dynastic unions.

Also I have a problem, European nations did not know of East Asia till the mid 16th century and vica versa. Therefore I propose to ban treaties and contact between zones more than 2 regions apart (the regions being Western Europe, Eastern Europe and Asia Minor, Middle East and Transcaucasia, India and Central Asia, China and SE Asia, Japan).

Therefore Japan can reach India and Central Asia but not the Middle East and Eastern European nations can reach India but not China. I propose we have this in place till 1550 to prevent "xxx (Europe) allies with Japan" and then a turn later "Japan sends military support to xxx in Europe"

Colonization was easier for nations with a large fleet and the closer to the New World the better. Therefore to begin colonization I'm proposing Japan, Siam and China can "colonize" areas east of Hawaii and north of Australia from the start of the game and then reach the Americas by 1510. Portugal, Castille, England, Scotland, Aragon, Genoa, Venice, Norway, France in that order with a 2-5 year gap can start colonizing the Caribbean from 1495 and then the continents them selves after 15 years of presence in America. That way the structure of colonization will be similar to OTL. We also need to prevent indication of the existance of East Asia in European posts and indication of the existance of Europe in Asian posts. Scandinator (talk) 23:09, July 26, 2012 (UTC)

About PM II again, which is the maximum number of colonies that a nation can have?--Collie Kaltenbrunner (talk) 21:12, July 27, 2012 (UTC)

The problem with 204, 0, 255 is it's too similar to Japan. Is an orange better since there are still no requests for yellow, orange, pink or brown. If yes, is 255, 153, 102 ok? Scandinator (talk) 00:07, July 28, 2012 (UTC)

How should the Ainu and Najavo work? I'm thinking natives have to form a nation at one point on the map and expand outwards into their maximum territory from there. Giving the Ainu all of Hokkaido seems a least implausable at 1450. And then after they have completed their territory, if they have contact with other nations they can play normally. What do you say? Scandinator (talk) 11:32, August 2, 2012 (UTC)

Well if you think about it... Nations control the area which is coloured but tribal groups control only a small part of the whole. Maybe we give them an area of a few pixels to start and they can expand into the rest of their tribal group area to form a nation. If they are in contact with other civilisations then they reach the same tech level in a few years but if not they cannot reach past gunpowder and paper.

China (Principia Moderni)
Crim has, in denying the requests for autonomy, given me the perfect reason for the Manchurians and the Mongolians to break away. The recent Chinese denial of the autonomy plan would likely piss them off enough to take the more radical step of declaring independance.

PMII Map-HRE
For the sake of everyone's sanity (especially mine and Collie's) and to achieve an aesthetically pleasing map I have merged about 1000 states into nearby larger states. This allows for smoother borders and prevents a massive grey glob representing about 1000 states. It also allows for more realistic algorithm results so a nation attacking the HRE wont have to attack 1000 tiny states.

Also what to do with Ragusa... Sine signed up for the Byzanitines first then changed to Dalmatia (Hugarian state) and then to Ragusa which is not big enough to fit on the map (less the 50sqkm) and is essentially a Venetian puppet. Do I add him and wipe out a chunk of another nation's territory or leave it out until he expands?Scandinator (talk) 11:05, August 11, 2012 (UTC)

Small German States does not work when there are 100s too small to be 1 px and some bigger than other nations outside of the HRE. It also would screw up algorithms since the value for civil disarray would be added in, making it possible to devaste the HRE by taking a couple hundred minor states out in one go and ensuring total collapse of the HRE. It also is going back to the old days of the HRE as a nation. This way several HRE states formerly classed as in the mess actually are represented on the map which is important since a couple are electors. For Ragusa I have contacted him but he has not replied and giving him 1px would wipe out an entire Venetian stronghold with the border... I'm not sure anyone wants a state with a population of 32,000. I you are unhappy with the way the HRE is represented maybe we should have a vote with the other mods, I'd be happy to change it. Scandinator (talk) 01:42, August 12, 2012 (UTC)

I was going to label it after I finished the nations so that it is easier to manage rather than names everywhere and thus also split the maps into a labelled one for talk and the one everyone sees on the main page. But I'll need to know how you did it on the other map. Also on your point with the algorythm... we need to be able to have both sides of a conflict able to gain land and relistically the stronger states like Hesse and the Palatinate would be able to take land and also at the time had a degree of conrol over their smaller neighbours so this map is more geopolitically correct. It's also not very fair as Brandenburg and Bavaria are the same size as a couple of the ones that were put in the Small German States and exert less political force than some (Palatinate was an elector, Bavaria was not) and I'm sure that the 50 nations on the map won't all be there by the end of the first 100 years thanks to the HRE's reunification plans...Scandinator (talk) 03:48, August 12, 2012 (UTC)

...I finished it... somehow. I'll start adding in names but im not sure how to since they blur up in paint and I don't really use anything else... What did you use on your map? Scandinator (talk) 11:58, August 12, 2012 (UTC)

Collie's checked it and found a few mistakes, those I have fixed. In regards to the game itself, I believe we should post a nice long mod post to start things off and set the scene. e.g.:

There would be more of course but my opinion is that everyone starting fresh on everything but stability isn't fair and we kinda need to set the scene. Scandinator (talk) 01:09, August 14, 2012 (UTC)

These events would be realistic but some would dirverge slightly from OTL and ither mod posts will dirverge further and further as time goes by. With the fragmented states in Asia, thats what's given to all the hordes and some of the small states that they border (raids come often). In India it is because of the fragmentation of the Sultanate of Delhi thanks to the Timurids who ransacked it. Other than that there aren't many more except for Shan States in Burma and a couple smaller kingdoms which face internal and external threats and feuding Rajputs in India.
