Talk:Victoria (1983: Doomsday)

I would like to suggest that Seattle and the metroplex there were a recent addition to the Republic, and I would also suggest that Victoria had skirmishes, if not war, with the warlords in Spokane. Otherwise, I look forward to seeing what you come up with! Louisiannan 16:04, September 9, 2009 (UTC)

 * and I would expect a fair amount of unrest among the refugees, short of an extensive police state/martial law for the first 5 years until things were settled. Louisiannan 17:50, September 9, 2009 (UTC)
 * Trying to figure out some ideas to incorporate the warlords in Spokane during the construction of Fort Bennett in Mt Vernon in 1996, but the Navajo nation article implies they were mostly wiped out after 1993. Ideas? --Oerwinde 23:02, September 11, 2009 (UTC)

Not forgetting about San Juan. Will be mostly concerned with consolidating power and reclaiming BC until early 2000, after San Juan's establishment.

According to already established canon, Canada makes contact with Vancouver Island in 1995. I'm altering the page to make room for your republic. --DarthEinstein 19:35, September 9, 2009 (UTC)

oh man, I must have missed that.

The City of Kelowna survived as a citystate? That is good news, as I have family in Kelowna. --Yankovic270 17:28, September 15, 2009 (UTC)
 * I was planning for it and the Okanagan region to join Victoria around mid to late 2010, while Kamloops will remain independant. Resentment from Victoria taking so long to send aid. Whether or not Prince George eventually takes control is up in the air.--Oerwinde 18:31, September 15, 2009 (UTC)
 * Well, it makes sense that they survived, I don't see why the Soviets would nuke these cities and contact would be hard after Doomsday because of the mountains. Oerwinde, why don't you create a separate article about the Okanagan Confederation? They are a separate political entity from Victoria. --DarthEinstein 23:43, September 15, 2009 (UTC)

Contact
Considering that the MSP had contact with the Pacific nations as early as 1991, it seems odd that it took Victoria until the 21st century to make contact with them when they are in the relatively same place as the MSP and Alaska. I think contact would have happened earlier for Victoria, most likely sometimes in the 90s, maybe even when the went on its world voyage. Mitro 13:05, September 11, 2009 (UTC)

-Well, reading the MSP article, it seemed they didn't have much of a presense until they actually formed in 2006, so I figured official contact shouldn't be made until then. I should change it so official relations were established in 2007. --Oerwinde 18:32, September 11, 2009 (UTC)
 * Contact and official diplomatic relations are two different things. The cities of the soon to be MSP had contact and even some trade with the Pacific nations but there was no official diplomatic relations until the MSP was formed.  Victoria on the other hand has a stable and united government much earlier.  There is no reason why the ANZC would ignore them until 2007, especially with their presence in Alaska starting when it became an associated state.  Mitro 19:02, September 11, 2009 (UTC)
 * Hopefully fixed. Very thankful for the feedback, theres so much already established and a lot to read so I miss a lot. Hence why this is a work in progress.--Oerwinde 20:33, September 11, 2009 (UTC)
 * Thank you for being willing to "play by the rules". QSS and QAA aren't always the most straightforward things, but I think you're getting the hang of it quite well.  Louisiannan 22:20, September 11, 2009 (UTC)

Monarchy
How did Victoria react to contact with ? Mitro 14:18, September 18, 2009 (UTC)
 * They would react positively. Knowing which monarch the Lieutenant Governor was representing would be good. I'm not sure when I would have them make contact. They're literally on the other side of the world.--Oerwinde 18:58, September 19, 2009 (UTC)

Military
Why woulf the military operate an old carrier and a missile submarine? it does not make sence!--HAD 10:05, September 22, 2009 (UTC)

The nuclear subs do more than just carry nukes, they can be used for recon as well as being able to go places ships can't. The Canadian military was heavily reliant on their american allies, with them gone the remnants need to defend themselves. I don't think a single Sub and Carrier is that bad.--Oerwinde 18:03, September 22, 2009 (UTC)

true about the sub, but carriers are useless without there air groups. if the carrier is heavily damaged, what about the planes? are any still flyable?--HAD 09:59, September 24, 2009 (UTC)
 * All the planes were destroyed, but there were some at the Whidby Island Naval Air Station.--Oerwinde 10:12, September 24, 2009 (UTC)

Are they carrier Capable? --HAD 12:56, September 24, 2009 (UTC)
