Map Game Wiki
I've been thinking about this idea for a long time.

Basically, it would have four advantages:

A) Map Games would not be restricted to althistory.

B) The reputation of this wiki wouldn't be so downgraded by them a-holes on AH.com.

C) It would have the effect of less clutter on this wiki.

D) It could have rules specifically designed for Map Games, including rules about defunct ones, etc.

What do you think?

A suggestion as to rules:

A) there would be a hierarchy, similar to the one on this wiki (called the Grand Council of Cartography, or something like that.)

B) Only these members would be allowed to mod on map games. This makes awkward runaway implausogasm situations or biased mod problems less likely.

C) There would be stricter rules about edit wars and the like. This wiki primarily devotes itself to althistory, so there is practically no solid rules on map games. This wiki would have them.

D) To get into the mod group, you would have to be part of the initial group of users (probably all from althist, people like you, me, scraw, etc), or have used the wiki for at least 6 months. This would be the lowest level, with the same 3 levels thing. For those 6 months, you would have to prove that you are plausible, polite, respecting of the rules, etc.

E) There would be a centralized algorithm, with lots of variations for different scenarios. This eliminates the @#$% idiotic algorithms that you see in some of the worse map games on this wiki.

Haven't gotten much further than that, any suggestions would be welcome!

By the way... time to archive, methinks.

Alliance
Sure- Korea would be honored to have an alliance with Hindustan. PitaKang- (But here's my number | So call me maybe) 21:09, October 22, 2012 (UTC)

Alright- overview of World War II. It started when Yugoslavia invaded Greece, France and others declared support for Greece, Germany supports Yugoslavia, etc. WWII ends with Allies and USSR steamrolling Germany, India is independent, Japan, Korea, Manchuria, Indochina, and Indonesia form the East Asian Trade and Security Pact. There is also the United Nations. The current big issue is the Turkish invasion of Greece and Persia. PitaKang- (But here's my number | So call me maybe) 21:18, October 22, 2012 (UTC)

if its up to me welcome to the E.A.T.S.P.

Well, I have agreed with Kogasa on a trade deal and alliance as we are to two most similar nations in terms of rich in culture, island-based and nava powers. I will be sending an expedition to India soon (five or so years from now) which will arrive in Chennai and then sail on to Siam and Japan. I guess an alliance with India can't hurt since the Caliphate is there as well... (Lets boot them out together!

Alliance
I'm with you on that. With the additional nation working with the Europeans, we'll be able to destroy the Caliphate instead. That superstate is too powerful to continue on in PMII. Vivaporius says: "I don't need a slogan!" 19:16, November 15, 2012 (UTC)

I'll talk to the Zulu and see what I can do. Vivaporius says: "I don't need a slogan!" 19:39, November 15, 2012 (UTC)

The War (PMII)
Well, I would like to help but, the Sengoku Era is bound to start in 1525 and as such, the Ashikaga Shogunate will fall into a war of clans, which means that I have to focus on reunifying Japan.

I'm sorry, but I really won't be able to help out. -Kogasa 2012年11月16日 05:47:57 (JST)

So if you all had the decency to wait a while, you'd notice that the Caliphate will be collapsing in forty years tops and you will be able to gain a lot of power. I do not get why are you so obsessed with destroying the Caliphate when in forty years the chaos ensuing the destruction will be far larger.

Also, if you decide to go through this shortsighted plan, then, since you tried to get Japan in I imgaine that we can get all of our provinces and colonies in as well. ~Fed

I would suggest waiting for the Caliphate to fall. What you should be focusing on is Bengal. Bengal is in league with Brandenburg to destroy you. I felt it fair to warn you, take out Bengal before the Germans march on Hindustan. By the way, my country(Scandinavia) has made contact with your nation already and we'd like to open relations.AP (talk) 18:19, November 16, 2012 (UTC)

Russia and the Caliphate
Saw your post on Lx's talkpage, thought I might as well respond as the other member of the Federation.

While we'd love to help, Russia can't get involved; we have a Nonaggression pact with them. War with them proved too costly.

That said... Russia might be convinced to help. If you can present a case to us that you guys losing would directly screw with us, the NA pact is null, and we can help.

But frankly, they're due to collapse soon. The only reason I would help would be to save Ethiopia. They're not going to attack you- unless in a preemptive strike if war is inevitable. They attack you, HRE and Ethiopia get a perfect opportunity to strike them in the back, then Russia sees the war spreading to the Black sea and in order to protect it's own interests attacks the Caliphate... They can't handle that, they're not going to. JUst let them collapse, then seize India. The Royal Guns (talk) 00:02, November 17, 2012 (UTC)

HMM... Novgorod, but that works...

Still, NA pact. Which, following the 11 year Great Holy War, is a good idea. 11 years of massive warfare, and absolutely nothing happens. In fact, two of the world's superpowers lose to the third.

That said, I am actively trying to piss them off, at which point they will threaten to break the pact, at which point we launch an all fronts attack...

Never mind, that's not happening for another 10 years. THE 20 YEAR PLAN MUST BE COMPLETED! (THe 20 year plan being the plan to conquer all of Siberia and central Asia not controlled by them bastards, AKA the Caliphate.) The Royal Guns (talk) 00:44, November 17, 2012 (UTC)

Hmm. Well, tell you what. Instead of Going eastward, starting 1525, I will invade South ward. Muscovian Prescence so close to India- effectively surrounding them- will scare them a bit, and they won't send anything more than military aid, or so the honourable member's thinking goes. If all goes well, Bengal will be toppled, and will either become Hindu, or be annexed. Preferably the former; I dislike the wiping out of players, it's mean. Unless you really want to, or have to.

And, if worst comes to worst, I'll get the HRE to make some threatening noises.

But for the best results, attack as they attack Ethiopia; they won't be able to sustain 2 such wars at once.

Especially not with all of Europe sharpening knioves right behind them.

Actually, come to think of it, that would be perfect. A three way war to rip them apart.

The Royal Guns (talk) 00:54, November 17, 2012 (UTC)

Oh, f**k. Scraw really does have an alliance with Bengal. This is NOT good. Brandenburg is one of our closest allies. Hopefully, I can talk him out of it, but I really can't risk pissing off Brandenburg- we need them and Bavaria, they're our influence in the HRE.

I'll accept the alliance. And talk firmly to Scraw. But this could be bad.

The Royal Guns (talk) 00:54, November 17, 2012 (UTC)

Turns out Scraw thought you were part of the Caliphate. He's in, so's Viva, and I've contacted Andr. We've got the HRE, India, Ethiopia, and Russia will probably end up interveneing, Lx will probably agree. The Royal Guns (talk) 02:07, November 17, 2012 (UTC)

I agree to intervening but we must keep to the anti-agressoin agreement as much as possible...untill the mahdi because book of revelations false prophet Blah blah blah trumps non-agression agreement. but I just realized that ethepoia might work to because they are orthodox nation, and that could men the caliphate wants to supress orthodoxy and therefore that makes any agreements null and void...that might work...but be careful about it, I dont want to be known as a guy you cant make nonagression agreements with. also, try to make the caliphate break the pact with russia or at least hint that they are going to so that we have good grounds to break it off and attack because tehy are planning to first.-Lx (leave me a message) 02:56, November 17, 2012 (UTC)

Um, and we are not attacking you yet, we are only attacking Muslim nations to unite them, and when we do attack non-Islam it will last like eleven years and you can most likely take over the Indian Caliphate states after that time. Fed (talk) 02:53, November 17, 2012 (UTC)

Bub, you know I was never frakking allied with Bengal right? I only offered to ivade you with him cause I thought you was on the Caliphate side. Hell, he never even replied. Get your facts straight, you gun jumping preemptive ImperiumGuy! LLAP. Out. Fegelein! Fegelein! Fegelein! 03:00, November 17, 2012 (UTC)

No problemo. Live Long and Prosper. Fegelein! Fegelein! Fegelein! 20:01, November 17, 2012 (UTC)

Again, no problem. I'm feeling very powerful now. I'm up and ready to flex my European Imperialist Muscles. Go Team Germany! (and Team Russia and Team India!) Interesting fact: You, Guns, and I are all of Indian descent. So really, we're all Team India. (Well, to be specific, I'm Team West Bengal. What about you?) Fegelein! Fegelein! Fegelein! 21:22, November 17, 2012 (UTC)

Lol, it's ok. Keep all of Bengal. On the side, I think Guns might be Team Kolkatta or Team Chennai. Fegelein! Fegelein! Fegelein! 03:12, November 18, 2012 (UTC)

I've an idea. German merchants will come and hear of the war and bring the message home and we'll send supplies later. Fegelein! Fegelein! Fegelein! 20:32, November 18, 2012 (UTC)

Or, another idea. I have three fleets stationed in the Phillippines. They can be sent to aid Hindustan, although they will fight on land, as three fleets vs. parts of the Caliphate Navy is suicide. All I ask for in return (if we win) is the Bengal Phillippines. SCraw

Team Pune/Chennai, actually.

I'm thinking 1526- get ready. The Royal Guns (talk) 23:07, November 18, 2012 (UTC)

Never mind.

Hmm. 1 more war like this, and the Caliphate will be adding Hindustan to their list of Provinces.

In case they do, they'll probably allow you to stay on as one of the DME people, so don't worry.

They won't win next time though! Muscovy is invading through those damn Khanates to the South, som next time, we'll send you Military aid, and that's another 26 points or somesuch.

In fact, if we don't renew that NA pact... The Royal Guns (talk) 19:41, November 19, 2012 (UTC)

Ahh, you aren't that fucked off. You get annexed, just revolt in eh, 80 years (which is, of course, just 80 days IRL), you don't, you just try and survive for that time.

Willco... to both. The Royal Guns (talk) 22:58, November 20, 2012 (UTC)

Okay Imp, Hindustan has been divided and you are now in charge of the Bengali vassal state of Dravida, whose ruling Prince will be subordinate to the Sultan of Bengal and the Caliph. You can continue to play as this vassal state but if you do you must promise to follow our lead and not rebel away until the Mahdi has been proven to be a fraud (I'll message you again when that has happened). If you do rebel away, then I'll destroy your nation by war, force you to go play as another country and never trust you again.

Alternatively, you can go and pick a new nation to rule and Tipakay will rule Dravida as if it was any other vassal state he controls. So what shall it be? VonGlusenburg (talk to Von!) 16:42, November 27, 2012 (UTC)

Half of that didn't really make sense given the form of government. Most of the rest just didn't make sense. Lordganon (talk) 10:48, December 20, 2012 (UTC)

Organic farming as we know it would not exist. And, quite frankly, wouldn't be well-known, in any form, anyways. Besides that, to most of the world, "organic farming" is just regular plain, old, ordinary, farming.

Hmmmm.... What are your thoughts about such an attack on their part?

Also, you need to archive this page, lol

Lordganon (talk) 07:16, January 21, 2013 (UTC)

A rapid advance into that one tiny state west of Bangladesh wouldn't even last two days, let alone a week.

Not only is it not China that borders the region any longer - Tibet, remember - but it's the Himalayas. More or less impassible except by air. Not that Tibet would allow either. Any such movement is out.

Any forces in Arunanchal Pradesh would, realistically, be small in number. Hard to supply them there.

Not an area, by and large, that is good for armored warfare. Only in the southernmost areas of the region would it be of all that much use. And the UIP doesn't have all that many of them, anyways.

I expect that the UIP would want some sort of "excuse" to have before they did anything, as well.

Lordganon (talk) 08:59, January 23, 2013 (UTC)

The Tibetans could do something about it - they do have quite a bit of military equipment left from the Chinese, and have newer stuff from Siberia. Heck, in some ways they're better armed than the UIP. And, even more importantly, Tibet is on very good terms with Siberia - the UIP would do nothing to risk that supply line.

They won't have the tanks to make concentrating them worthwhile at all. Better to use them supporting infantry, if anything. But, the terrain in question, for the most part, renders them largely useless. The only area they'd be of use would be the initial waves against Kamptapur. Really, though, their armor will stay in lines near Pakistan, and the southern remnants.

No one would buy the bombing. Not even Siberia or the ANZC would, to say the least of the SAC reaction.

Hmmmm.... I'm thinking that one of the planes crashes while flying between the UIP sections. Not shot down, mind. When UIP forces move in to retrieve the wreckage, and try to get the pilot, whose status is largely irrelevant - dead, alive, little difference. Thinking that they are being invaded, the state - Bodoland is most likely - militia, without orders from above, goes after the recovery team. From there, we have war.

On another note, Tula Nada, in the south, would be targeted too. Call it convenient.

Lordganon (talk) 07:29, January 24, 2013 (UTC)

The southern states are going to neither risk their aid, or their own forces, for such a tiny state. If you think about it, all Tula Nada would be to them is a resource sink, at best - not strong enough to delay the UIP or anything like that. No point in trying to help.

Lordganon (talk) 11:10, January 26, 2013 (UTC)

Hmmm.... Well, looking into India's weather, I don't think an attack now would be good. Storms, temperatures, etc. Would definitely hinder things.

Looking at records, and what I can find (in general) on climate in northeastern India, I think that early April would be when any attack would start. The climate should be as neutral as possible, then.

Have to be done by monsoon season, of course, but if launched in early April, they should have at least a month or so to finish.

Lordganon (talk) 08:05, January 27, 2013 (UTC)

The UIP has - maybe - only a single carrier. Imp, they don't have the ability to build them, even today otl. For simplicity's sake, we'll say that they still have the one. They do, however, have the ability to maintain it.

I really have to doubt that the Soviets can really do another deal, right now. Their resources are a bit stretched, Imp, as it is.

Something about construction in Bombay would probably be ok.

Lordganon (talk) 10:50, January 27, 2013 (UTC)

Bhutan is pretty impassable, imo. Mountains, galore. And their airspace would be of little to no use - the path over the "rebel" states is faster. Also wouldn't matter, strategically. Lordganon (talk) 11:23, January 29, 2013 (UTC)

Too much, I think, Imp. And not consistent, either - you only have two states expanding, yet there is more states that could. Lordganon (talk) 05:31, January 31, 2013 (UTC)

Yes, they all would do so to some degree. Lordganon (talk) 10:32, February 2, 2013 (UTC)

Just Saying...
Just saying, but it looks like you really have something against Muslims in India. In all map games and TLs, I see you bringing or trying to bring the Hindus into dominance over the Muslims and Sikhs and stuff. You do realize that even though the Hindus were there first, if it wasn't for the Brits, the Muslims would still dominate the continent?

Fegelein! Fegelein! Fegelein! 20:07, January 22, 2013 (UTC)

Check your archives. ;) Fegelein! Fegelein! Fegelein! 20:19, January 22, 2013 (UTC)

Not really. Think about it, the only truly fully muslim rulers of India were the Mughals and the Delhi Sultanate. After each of them fell, the empires that arose in their wake were Hindu. If Babur hadn't arrived during the Lodi dynasty, it's probable that Vijaynagara or somesuch Hindu nation would have taken India.

 * Ahem, check this then. ;) [[Image:1.png|23px]] Imp (Say Hi?!) 00:14, April 4, 2013 (UTC)

Re: I was wondering...
For the record, I have absolutely nothing against PNG files (or JPEGs and GIFs for that matter). My main problem is with with duplicate files on this site. Since Vector files (SVG) are the standard used on Wikipedia and Wikimedia Commons (flag wise at least), I consider the many PNG, JPEG, and GIF files as duplicates.

So in that regard, yes. I would have a problem with you uploading a PNG file of the British flag (regardless of its quality), because there is already a file here that can be used. Also for the record, Vector files aren't pixelated, meaning that even a 1px SVG file can be re-sized to 2000px and it would not have any distortion (thought I don't know why anyone would want a 2000px picture on a page).

However, if you so happened to upload a distinct flag for one of your timelines (say the British flag that is purple), and you so happen to choose PNG as your preferred format, then I have absolutely no problem with it. --NuclearVacuum (Talk) 01:54, January 23, 2013 (UTC)

Atlantropa
Hi Imp! It's funny you mention Atlantropa actually, because I was going to make that an important premise in the new alternate history blog series thing I was planning on. Have you heard of Crimson Skies? Combine that with sea level rise, and set it in a Nazi-dominated Europe, and you're halfway to the premise... I will make sure I contact you when I get the first part of it uploaded to my blog!

As for AKITE and Arrival, I'm sorry that I've posted so little. My excuse? A-levels! Joy of joys... Feel free to do what you like with Arrival, though, because I doubt I'll be doing much on this wiki anymore except checking back on stuff from time to time. As for AKITE... yeah, I decided that in order to make that a realistic timeline, it would require a phenomenal amount of research, energy and commitment that I currently lack. Plus it would probably end up completed on AH.com anyway, where it wouldn't get drowned amidst a sea of map games and, more importantly, get a wider audience! You might wanna consider checking out the site, I prefer the environment there somewhat. And yeah, you're right, I guess things just haven't been the same since Mitro left, and I suppose in retrospect and with some maturity I can see that LG has raised some valid points, but I'm just generally divorced from this wiki now.

Nonetheless, stay in contact matey!

Indian Coalition
Ahh, well, TN was really yours and LG's. I didn't do anything except kindle the fire.

Well, it could start out between TN and AP, then perhaps after another show of UIP aggression, Rama joins too.

Perhaps after the UIP annexations they go for a show of strength and attack (without any real force) Rama, just to scare them. Mission accomplished, but rather than getting them to accede, they join the IC?

The Royal Guns (talk) 17:33, January 27, 2013 (UTC)

Well, yes, true, but I think that unless Pakistan gets involved the UIP can still pull it off. SAC is dropping large amounts of aid ANYWAY, due to the attacks. SS will replace it.

Perhaps it's a regiment on the border. Hearing rumors about the assaults in the rest of India, they expect to attack Raya any day, even though it's not happening. Small border conflag turns into a full out battle before UIP top brass pulls their troops back. Scares the  stuffing out of Raya, who panic and go to the IC.

Let's ask LG.

oh. i feel dumb now. thanks for  telling me and finishing my algorithm, I realy do apreciate it. And Im doing good, we had exams last week and passed all my classes. New semester started and I got stuck with a bunch of little 10th graders. Im in 11th grade and there driving me insane.

well you live there, so youd have a better idea at what Britain needs. And I still dont beleive your younger, you make me look pathetic comapred to your timelines! Im more of a constiutionalist, so i want the US federal government to get rid of all the power it took from the states, basicaly the system of 1850's concerning state-federal government power ratio. Right now the feds are getting way to powerful trying to take our Bill of Rights away. (DeanSims: Talk) 22:22, January 29, 2013 (UTC)

I dont neccesarily mean a confederation, but I want the power to be heald equaly as it shows in the US Constitution which in the 10th Amendmant gives all powers not given to the federal government or denied to the states to the states. This meant in the 1700's that the states could manage there own affairs, and that they were equal with the federal government. (DeanSims: Talk) 22:29, January 29, 2013 (UTC)

Secession is legal, the original 13 states did it with Britain. But in the Civil War the South had become dominated by the north and west and was being hurt badly by northern legislation, taxes, tarrifs, etc. Almost exactly the same cause as the American Revolution/American War of Independance. The US constitution didnt deny the right of secession or grant it. The secession question was quieted by northern arms, but it was never actauly answered.

South Africa Map
Imp, they aren't going to expand with the district borders. Lordganon (talk) 06:11, February 6, 2013 (UTC)

More Africans arriving is unlikely. And Watersboerland has a military to boot.

OFS would still expand.

Imp, half of the increases you have are to the lines on the map. It's just not happening.

Lordganon (talk) 22:34, February 25, 2013 (UTC)

You're overstating the OFS expansion. And both Waterboersland and the Azanian League are going to expand in more than one direction.

But much better overall.

The OFS would not have such access.

Imp, the white South Africans are largely Boer/Afrikaans, depending on who you ask. While they are descended from Dutch colonists, they are most decidedly not Dutch. They hold no attachments to the Netherlands, and wouldn't even begin to entertain such an idea. That ignores, of course, the fact that the former Netherlands is pretty much gone, in all meanings of the word. The surviving Dutch in Friesland and westernmost North Germany wouldn't go near such a regime, either.

Lordganon (talk) 09:07, February 28, 2013 (UTC)

Numbers of "white people" in KwaZulu are entirely irrelevant. And, for the record, there are almost none there - and what numbers there are, are in the city of Durban almost entirely.

...You missed my point entirely, Imp. There are other areas to expand into - you merely have others expanding into them, when the League would get there first. Same thing for Waterboersland, which you still haven't done the expansion at all accurately.

Seedy Situtation
Imp, I believe something seedy is going on with AP and Scraw. Have you noticed how Scandinavia (AP) appears to be conquering lands without problem, or how Brandenburg (Scraw) is establishing colonies that when done by other players is called "implausible"? I mean, AP took over the Inca Empire, the Swahili city-states, and Bengal without the natives putting up a fight or gaining a bonus to fight back. Also, note that they've refused to certain countries like Eire from developing a navy or colonies. Vivaporius: "I don't need a slogan" 14:59, March 6, 2013 (UTC)

I fear AP and Scraw are scrawing around with the rules to their advantages, but the other mods aren't listening. It appears the wiki is run by an oligarchy. Vivaporius: "I don't need a slogan" 18:13, March 6, 2013 (UTC)

TREASON.

If it's not me who gets rif of implausibility who will? Eire creating events like that is against the rules, since he can't control another nation like that. And who says I prevented Eire from creating a navy? What Ethiopia does in general is mostly implausible(massive navy, army, economy, empire claims, etc.). He seems to have it in his head that Scraw and I are out to get him when clearly we are not and are just enforcing the rules. I'm here to enforce rules and make sure plausible things happen. Not anything else.AP (talk) 01:49, March 7, 2013 (UTC)

Also, can you please stop posting as the Netherlands? That was ruled implausible by the mods, including Collie.108.214.113.122 02:04, March 7, 2013 (UTC)

It's implausible. Europeans are still ahead of the rest of the world. You vassalizing the Netherlands is like Bhutan vassalizing China. I'm just going to peacefully expand in Sumatra because they are due to fall into civil dissarray. I'll take Sumatra and you can have the rest of Java.AP (talk) 00:08, March 8, 2013 (UTC)

Hey Imp, I have two colonies over Adelaide and Melbourne, but the mods aren't showing them stating that it would appearently by impossible for them to sustain themselves (saying something about the desert even though their in green areas). Anyway, AP says they exist, stating that I couldn't establish another colony for the next 50 years, but Colie won't show them, so they exist on paper but not in action. So where would I be able to move them to use them? Anywhere else on the map I could put them? Vivaporius: "I don't need a slogan" 18:26, March 8, 2013 (UTC)

Yes, you should. He's created several colonies within a fifty year period regardless of the fact he told everyone else that they cannot have more than two within that same period. His expansionism appears to be a deciding factor for his actions. He would let anyone else invade India, but he did and ended up with Bengal. Too seedy to be plausible.

Russia = OTL Soviet Union + Mongolia + Uyghuristan + Poland + Finland. Completely Tsarist, overly powerful.

17:16, March 17, 2013 (UTC)

Well, I do not want him to gain control over all of Iberia. My plan is to reach Aragon to Luxembourg via France and then Luxembourg to Germany through some little annoying states, or the Netherlands, which I will stay away from. However, then I will have a European Empire, which the mods will not allow, so I'll just have all of these seperated.

17:19, March 17, 2013 (UTC)

All sounds good. LET THE HOHENZOLLERN EMPIRE RISE FROM THE ASHES!

One more thing: I want a way to get closer to industrialization faster. I mean, an empire of ice and plantations (Scandinavia) is not something I see industrializing soon, and we are about to bring down the mighty V, leaving China for the win.

18:24, March 17, 2013 (UTC)

Re:I've got an idea
Oh gosh, I'm sorry Imp, I've had a bit of time off from the Wiki to focus on my studies (not a fun semester with French, English, Math and Science :P). But that would actually be an interesting idea. I'd assume the Russians would indeed help the Hungarians, since their OTL alliance with Austria and Prussia wouldn't go so well (can't remember the name, might have been something like the Holy Alliance or something...). As for bringing the war to the west, I'd assume you mean bringing it to Greenland, hmm.. I suppose having the Russians and the Brits in a differing alliance could cause some clashes on the island, but other than that I doubt a lot of full-scale military operations would take place. The timeline is yours to flourish, though! ChrisL123 (talk) 23:07, March 16, 2013 (UTC)

Maybe you could try to have a different clan winning? Like Oda Nobunaga could be killed somehow in one of his campaigns sometime in the early 1560s. Then later Takeda Shingen makes a pact with Tokugawa Ieyasu as usual, until Ieyasu decided to ally with his former enemy Imagawa Ujizane and Uesugi Kenshin. Takeda Shingen avoids getting an illness and dying, and manages to be there for the. Tokugawa Ieyasu could somehow die during the battle and afterwards, Takeda Shingen would go on in uniting Japan. He could also possibly ally with Toyotomi Hideyoshi as well.

Or, the Sengoku would continue as normal and Hideyoshi would attempt to invade Korea in 1592. Maybe they could become successful instead, giving a chance for Japan to rise in power and influence.

Either way, Japan could also later on, expand into Karafuto and the Chishima islands, and maybe part of the OTL Russian Far East (like Kamchatka).

What do you think? -Kogasa  2013年3月18日 02:46:17 (JST)

In that case, have Toyotomi's invasion of Korea become successful, and Korea would be turned into a vassal of Japan (for now). Therefore Japan could then become a bit expansionist, and they would expand into Karafuto, Chishima Islands, a bit of Kamchatka, and Taiwan (not all at once of course, it would take years). Japan would also compete in trade and such, and could also begin trading with the Portuguese and Dutch at first. Of course, while Japan would be willing to trade, they would not tolerate any European missionaries (similar to the Japan in A Darker Place). -Kogasa  2013年3月18日 03:32:55 (JST)

Re: Russia in HR
Greetings. Yes, it has been quite a long time since we last spoke. I hold no grudge with you, so you have nothing to worry about.

I am more than happy to help. However, I know very little about Indian history (especially pre-British history), so forgive me if I can't give you an exact path for Russia.

I assume that Europe and their colonial expansion is about the same, just with India remaining out of the colonial sphere. If that be the case, I assume that Russia would not be that different from OTL. Aside from that, not too sure what else to say (given the vagueness of your timeline at the present). The former republics of the USSR in question could be possible, though how they remain I can't say with the limited details. Karelia and Kamchatka not being part of Russia also depend on how Finland and Japan work.

My Russian America timeline is a different species all together; and could border on being ASB in some cases. With the British not having India (I assume), I doubt Russia could expand as they did in RA. At the most, probably just Alaska as in OTL (give or take). Russia's Fort Ross could maybe still exist; though it depends on who controls California, and how they react to a Russian presence. --NuclearVacuum (Talk) 18:47, March 18, 2013 (UTC)


 * I see. If the US doesn't exist, than the Napoleonic Wars don't happen. If that be, Fort Ross would most likely not exist. Even with the British focused in Australia and Germany, them remaining in North America would probably mean that they would be able to push the Russians out of gaining California and the Oregon Country. I don't believe a Russian America on the scale as I have it in Russian America would be able to exist here, sorry to say.


 * However, a larger Alaska isn't completely out of the picture (if you know where to look). Despite being focused elsewhere, the British wouldn't allow Russia to claim Oregon, but they may be willing to give them more territory in the north. Russia historically claimed all territory north of the 51st parallel (more or less all the coast north of Vancouver Island). Pressure from the Americans and the British pushed them to the southernmost point of the Alaskan Panhandle today. The British would later "loophole" the Russians to the modern day border of Alaska (i.e., giving them their panhandle). With the Americans being out of the picture (making the Brits happy) and combined with them being focused elsewhere; they may be willing to a better border for Russia in this part of the continent.




 * While not much in comparison to what you wanted, this could allow the Russians to have complete control over the gold and oil to be discovered later on, making it much more valuable in the long run. Take a look at this and this, and you can see what I am thinking, with the British allowing all of North America west of the 130th meridian to belong to Russia. I hope you don't mind, but I made a map to explain what I am seeing. Russia would probably get more of the Yukon and the majority of Alaska. The yellow circles are the main gold rushes in this territory.


 * As for the rest of Russia, without the Napoleonic Wars, it would most likely mean that Russia would still be an empire ruled by the Tsar (so they would include what you have and more). Depending on how Japan and Russia develop, Kamchatka may or may not become part of Japan. Russia had their eyes on Manchuria, while Japan (early on) were quite happy to just get Hokkaido and the Kurils; so it depends on whether Japan would overtake Russia as a regional power like OTL. Finland would most likely remain a part of Sweden, meaning Russia would most likely keep Karelia. --NuclearVacuum (Talk) 21:10, March 18, 2013 (UTC)

RE:Hindustani Raj help
Hey, Imp, so sorry for the late replies, I've had quite a lot of tests and assignments this week, not enough time to visit the Wiki. But I'm back currently! :)

Now, to your message: you have some compelling ideas. However, a few things:
 * What exactly is the correlation between an earlier-united Hindustan and the British being more involved in European and North American matters, enough to have the Americans not declare independence?
 * I assume that the between the Brits and the Russians would cause them some tension, however some of the competition was in the east Asia and India, so with India being independent, I'd see more competition between the two in Persia, China, and the Americas. So, I think, good call on Alaska. In my timeline, I'm having the British-Russian competition only to be more strained when Alaska is captured from the Russians. Here, I could see a more Russian presence in Alaska to prove they are not "inferior" to the British.
 * On France... this might be tricky. It really depends on why the Americans don't revolt. If, in France, there is a strong enough revolutionary wave, though not as strong as OTL, and you have these revolutionaries kill Louis XVI as OTL, you could have the British intervening and kick the revolutionaries' butt, have them restore the crown, cause some sort of isolation in the country, and I guess then you can have the British have greater say in European matters. Though I don't know how likely that is.

I'd love to help you, I just need to know more about what you had in mind for certain details :P. Regards, ChrisL123 (talk) 17:52, March 29, 2013 (UTC)

Hey Imp, I annexed Aceh a few years ago after spending about a decade converting the population to Christianity. Is that allowed? Do I control them? Vivaporius: "I don't need a slogan" 02:54, March 30, 2013 (UTC)

Ahh, I figured that would be a factor in it. That makes more sense actually.

The Hanover-Prussian union... Hmm, see, if Britain is still in a personal union with Hanover (which actually I think they did not like), and then Hanover and Prussia get into a union, that would become a British-Hanoverian-Prussian union. If Prussia gets into a personal union with just Hanover after the British leave that union (I believe that was when Queen Victoria, a woman, ascended to the throne), I don't know if the Brits would still be allied to the Hanoverian-Prussians. I will have to look into the British-Hanoverian relationship (considering the Prussians OTL took over Hanover without much British help), but remember that Britain and Prussia did indeed have, so them being allied is not out of the question.

The reason the Brits got involved in OTL is because of the death of Louis XVI. If Louis isn't killed, then likely no involvement unless they notice that the revolutionaries are actually gaining some ground. If Louis is killed, then international aid would be sent to the monarchists from other European monarchies until the revolution is stopped and a Bourbon king is on the throne again. The revolutionaries were able to avoid this... . In ATL, without the Americans becoming independent, the support wouldn't be as large, but I don't know if you want Louis to be killed by them or not.

Indian colonial troops were indeed fighting in Afghanistan in the 1850s; that specific war was the. They were fighting the Persians for them to retreat from Herat, Afghanistan; independent Afghanistan, which was needed so the British could have a buffer state between India and Russia from fear of a Russian takeover... which of course wouldn't happen ATL because they wouldn't own India. Since India seems to extend into Afghanistan in your timeline, I could see a greater interest in the British and Russians colonizing Persia, though I'm not that knowledgeable on Persian history enough to know if the British would ever get a colony out of the land. The Great Game ATL would probably be more a competition between the Brits and the Russians in Persia, China, and North America, and of course that might spill into Europe.

As for the colours, I believe I gave you the as a guide. But what I usually use now is Inkscape, they have an option to see the code for a specific colour you pick (if you have it I could explain it to you.) You've got an interesting timeline, and I hope to see more of it :P. ChrisL123 (talk) 00:58, March 31, 2013 (UTC)

Raj + PM
I will help you create pages for HR if you help me with A World of Difference. You can play with anything, as long as I can fix it into canon as well. Just remember that it's a Muslim India.

Also, I was only creating those algorithms to show that you could not take us (Europe) over as easily as we could do so vice-versa. But that's water under the bridge, eh? :)

00:01, March 31, 2013 (UTC)

Aha Imp, a good timeline is never finished!

Also Bavaria would probably like part of Prussia, but I need to connect the Fatherland to Courland, so I'm willing to sever that link to connect Austria to Brandenburg.

As for Aragon, I broke the "rule" on the mod page that everything there is "secret" and cannot be discussed by non-mods, but that was my OOC punishment.

I never have my Royal Families straightened out. Normally I just create the current ruler, his wife, and their heir. You can have the newly made-up eldest daughter of the Kaiser, Maria Anna, who will not convert from her beloved Germanic Catholicism whatsoever. ;)

I thought dynastic union was how you got the other parts of India? But I think that it wouldn't work as your countries have little in common. <font color="#000000">VonGlusenburg (talk to Von!) 14:56, March 31, 2013 (UTC)

I'd keep it in country to solidify the union of your country. As for colonies it was more the New Zealand one for you but that was aimed more at Scraw & various other players. However your ability to write off your muslim population not rebelling and refusing to convert is annoying to me for plausibity reasons. These things have a tendancy to kick off as I'm sure you've seen throughout history. <font color="#000000">VonGlusenburg (talk to Von!) 13:59, April 1, 2013 (UTC)

I like the sound of that, I'm sure some of the muslim leaders in my nation would welcome your muslim refugees into the federation. As for a new colony, would they not just go to a more tollerant state in India e.g. Bengal is still mainly muslim. Or they'd go to the Arabian federation, some of the indonesian sultanates, somewhere in centeral asia or middle east. Maybe even africa, my maldives vassal or south east asia. But yeah a small colony could be formed but you wouldn't be able to do an "emergency colony", it'd have to be within your own colonial limit. Anyway yeah I'll update your territories page using the 1655 map. <font color="#000000">VonGlusenburg (talk to Von!) 19:20, April 1, 2013 (UTC)

I would say it is legit but I think the actual amount of control exercised over Bengal wouldn't be that strong. If the Scandinavians merely using their technology to help prop-up the Bengali government then I guess it would be a puppet government. As for Australia, remember there isn't all that much there so it maybe isn't the most useful place to colonize unless you do it in the right places and resources there which are worth you colonizing the area. But I would say wait until 1700 until starting to colonize Australia, as it wasn't done in OTL until then but you can do it on a very small scale. Remember your colonists aren't going to agree going to live in a desert. You need a few decades to explore the continent to see if its worth it too. <font color="#000000">VonGlusenburg (talk to Von!) 18:56, April 2, 2013 (UTC)

Hattanwaddy did do it, but they kept it small. Mostly due to kenny's absence but still don't go mental with it like you did with new zealand. Remember the technological advantage isn't as big as it was in the 1800s yet, communication and travel is still very difficult.

But anway, yeah easter's been good. I get 3 weeks so I'm still off next week, albiet I have 3 essays to do so next week isn't going to feel like much of a holiday anyway. But I have been lazzing around my house most of the time, now and again going out to town or pub. Suspose the coming heticness is my own fault for wasting these past couple of days but I needed this sort of break to relax. Uni is stressful man. The lifestyle is great, if only the work wasn't so hard. How about you? <font color="#000000">VonGlusenburg (talk to Von!) 23:33, April 2, 2013 (UTC)

I have done secondary school before you know. I got exams in May so you having them in November is pretty luck as I'll then have more exams the December after. Believe me, there is much more work to come in your education. <font color="#000000">VonGlusenburg (talk to Von!) 16:26, April 3, 2013 (UTC)

No you shouldn't be able to expand into a stable nation. Because doing so is an invasion. You can expand slowly into nations in civil disarray but sometimes its quicker to do a war algorithm. <font color="#000000">VonGlusenburg (talk to Von!) 17:32, April 4, 2013 (UTC)

Get started whenever you wish - I really won't have time until next week.

Not shot down - just crashes. Think of it as a new pilot having a problem, and it goes badly. The rescue attempt backfires.

More like this occurs in the last couple weeks of March, with the UIP troops not really leaving the area. Sometime over the next couple weeks, after some preparation, they launch the assaults. Campaigns would last until May or so, I think.

Lordganon (talk) 12:00, April 2, 2013 (UTC)

We went over this months ago, lol.

The UIP has territory on the other side of the breakaways, Imp. The best route by far to get planes between the two is over said states.

One of these planes crashes in Bodoland, near the border. UIP forces move in to secure the site, Bodoland forces move against them. UIP troops manage to hold the site, and after it is recovered remain there. Things mushroom from there, and the UIP invades Bodoland. And once they start taking it out - which would have the SAC drop their aid - the main reasons to not go after the little states is gone, so they go after them too.

I can wait. But for the time being, let's focus on dominating the Indian Ocean. I was planning on us dividing Austrailia in the 1700s, and you taking New Zealand around that time as well. I'll focus on taking over Africa while I still have the chance, and then when your ready, I'll support any of your conquests on the Indian Subcontinent if you plan on it.

UIP Transport
I have to doubt that it would a priority.

Besides, adding new power lines is really not something the government would be involved in.

Looking into the railway situation, while the network itself would likely have survived, the trains would be another story. I expect that the fighting combined with shortages afterwards would mean that the subcontinent is largely using steam locomotives still, with the remainder being older diesel designs.

UIP doesn't need a new design of engine.

It would be highly unlikely for that building to be the inspiration for anything - and while it may have been damaged after DD, it would have been finished eventually.

Yeah, I suppose it would be all right for you to make those company articles.

Lordganon (talk) 11:32, April 7, 2013 (UTC)

A few years, I would expect.

Looks very "templely" to me - and no, it doesn't look at all like a Parliament building. Not safe at all, for that matter.

I expect that the UIP government would operate out of the area of Bombay where the state government is otl, with whatever local state government that exists instead being based in Nagpur. Now those all look like Parliament buildings.

Re. Empress
Haha, I guess it would be. Thank you. Callumthered (talk)

And, seeing as you must've at least glanced over the article, what do you think? Callumthered (talk)

Thanks for the population stats. Just looked at a map of Hyderabad, I completely agree about my map making it too big, I guess my mouse-drawing skills need a bit of improvement! With regards to the Tamil state, how big are we talking? My knowledge of Subcontinental ethnography is...limited at best, so I'm very glad you pointed that out. I really should have considered the Tamils though, they did have a prominent place in the news for a while. In the article, I believe I divided the Agency states into four agencies, but I think I ran out of space in the legend to put them on the map, so I bundled them all together. As for Dehli as the capital, I had actually not known that Edward VII was the one who made it the capital. I had assumed (without any reason) that it became capital with the republic. Thank you for pointing that out too. I think I'll make Dehli the administrative capital, with Calcutta being the royal (well, imperial) capital.

A question I'd like to pose: how much intermarrying between the local princel families and the shipped-in Imperial family do you think would be appropriate/possible? I was thinking that British pride (/racism) would stop anyone in serious danger of inheriting the throne from marrying a local prince/princess, but maybe not? And then there's the religious/cultural differences... Anyway, what do you reckon? Callumthered (talk) 13:46, April 12, 2013 (UTC)

No reserve necessary, I appreciate the map very much; it's much better than a confusing chunk of text describing borders. If I recolour some of the states (just so same colours don't border each other) would you mind if I used the map on the article? (full credit to you).

The Sikh Empire, I dunno, I thought that without the British army to support them, the company might just not bother, and by the time they do bother, it would have fallen under either Russian or Chinese influence (I'm not sure which one yet). But if you think it's highly unlikely, it can be changed. The Sikhs don't have a page yet, so it would only be a matter of changing all the maps.

I have to agree about the Imperial family. The only way they could get legitimacy would by marrying the locals. But that could cause problems for the monarchy in its other realms: Saint Helena, Van Diemen's Land and Sumatra. The majority Anglo population in the first two, would probably be averse to having one of Indian ancestry ruling over them. So, I may have to do the unthinkable and divide the "British Domains" between different branches of the House of Hannover. Meh, it's a minor change. Callumthered (talk) 23:01, April 12, 2013 (UTC)

I see what you mean about the princely states. Yeah, having them as de facto presidencies seems the go. They would each have elected assemblies, like the presidencies. But I do still want them to have their own monarch, but as more of a figurehead (and a convenient pool of potential Imperial spouses), like the 1871-1918 German Empire otl, but much more democratic. More Imperial control over the Princely armies as well, I suppose. So, for example, the Mysore Army becomes de facto just another regiment in the Indian Army, but the Maharaja is the ceremonial Colonel-in-Chief.

Wow, I just read that over, I hope it's not too garbled ;) Also, I take your point about the Windsors, and I am quite glad too; it seemed a shame to give the British diaspora different monarchs.

I do like your latest map, it is much tidier than mine was. I'll get rid of the Sikhs and add Kashmir as a princely state. Would it be at all possible to somehow move those borders onto a more plain map of India?

Finally, thanks for the Governor/President thing. What on Earth were the English thinking calling something a presidency!? Callumthered (talk) 01:27, April 13, 2013 (UTC)

Hey, in 1680, I'm going to be invading Sudan. Anything I need to prepare fore between now and then? Vivaporius: "I don't need a slogan" 02:32, April 13, 2013 (UTC)

Gotcha. Vivaporius: "I don't need a slogan" 22:35, April 13, 2013 (UTC)

I must say, I have to agree with you on the map, it is truly a magnificent job, and I am actually honoured that something like that will be on NAV!! I hope you will allow me (and remind me) to nominate it for the next Stirlings. Just one thing though, I see you added Nepal and Bhutan to the empire. I had assumed they would remain independent, but having just read the Wikipedia page on the wars that the BEIC fought and won against them I think probably makes more sense having them as princely states than as independent ones.

You know, great minds must truly think alike. I was thinking yesterday about a sort of Indian creol sorta race that would spring up from the whites who do intermarry. I agree with you that some of the whites would probably aim to keep their families white. I was thinking that after the fall of Britain in 1813, there is a fairly steady exodus of the British intelligentsia to India and Van Diemen's land (but obviously the majority to India. I mean, Tasmania's a small island). So, I suppose India would begin to be more like a South American country, with regards to race. The white "full" (or mostly full) Euros, the Creol "half" (more or less) Indo-Europeans, and the full indians, who I still think would make up the majority of the population. But the whites and creoles would make up a sizeable minority, and probably have most of the power and property. I was thinking that Elizabeth's dad (I think he'd be George IV using the post-Britain post-nominal numbers system) might be the first Emperor to have married an Indian, but other, less important branches of the family started intermarrying in the 1910s.

You're definitely right about the royal/imperial family. Once they arrive in India, I think they'd use all their constitutional power to improve their "new Britain". Porbably slightly behind Europe, as you said, and I think maybe on par with Sino-Japan. The Sino-Japs did undergo a sort of Meji Restoration phase which propelled them to industrialisation like it did Japan otl. But I think in education, India'd be ahead. The brits would definitely focus on forming the little indians into proud members of "the Empire". In many ways, I suppose ttl India is like New Britain in 1983DD. I think you're right about the superspower business. They might be a bit ahead of the USA in terms of general powerfulness, so I might give the USA's seat in the Chambre des Superpuissants (ttl Security Council) to India. It would also balance out the chamber between the different alliance blocks.

I think the royals would maintain their faith, and thanks to the substantial anglican emigre and creole population, would probably not feel the need to try and convert everyone else. OH, just as I was typing, I came up with something. The imperial title could be something like: HIM etc. etc. Defender of the Faiths. Like, they could make it part of their coronation oath to protect and defend the faiths of the people of the empire. Or something. Callumthered (talk) 00:47, April 14, 2013 (UTC)

Sorry it's taken me so long to respond, the Easter holidays are gone, along with my leisure time.

I like your idea of an Indian "prince Albert" figure marrying Victoria. Just one thing, by her marrying an indian prince, wouldn't the House name change from Hannover to Wadiyar or another such Indian name? Or do you think it would be possible for a similar law to be passed as was passed keeping Windsor as the current royal family's name? It's just, I can see Vandiemonians and Saint Helenans accepting a part Indian sovereign, but not an Indian house name.

Six million British immigrants? I think that may be a bit too many. The population of England, Wales and Scotland (I doubt independent Irish would immigrate to a "new Britain" when there's a massively Irish-majority republic in Australia) in 1851 was only ca. 20 million. In 1810, that number was about 13 million. So, if say two million arrive 1813-1830 and only breed with other whites, (whilst keeping the same population growth rates as Britain), their population could have grown to about 3 million by 1851. Adding another influx of immigrants with the foundation of the empire (let's say another 2 million), then the white, or mostly white, population in 1870 could be around 5 million. However, I've forgotten about the Brits already in India and the slower stream of immigration from 1830-1857. So maybe by 1870, we could have a white Indian population of around the six million mark, and in the end the result is basically the same. I think... (Simple addition and multiplication is always where I make my mistakes in exams. I lay out the entire equation perfectly, follow all the steps, and then get the whole thing wrong because I made 3x4=14 or something equally stupid)

One final thing, do you think that the BEIC's otl occupation of Aden would still happen TTL? And what about the Opium Wars? (God that BEIC had its fingers in a lot of pies) Callumthered (talk) 10:39, April 16, 2013 (UTC)

Damn, forgot something, would you mind, if you had the time, slightly changing your beautiful map? Could you erase the Russian-Afghan border (Afghanistan's a part of Russia ttl) and move the Burmese one so that mainland Malaysia is included in it? Thanks, Callumthered (talk)

Good point about non-British European migrants. There would have been plenty of disaffected Austrians, Hungarians, Prussians, Danes, Swedes, Norwegians, Spaniards and Italians willing to emigrate, and a staunchly nation anti-French by its mere existance would probably be their first choice (although Brazil and America would also probably lure some).

A ten child policy would most certainly do the trick, but a five or even four child policy would be enough. As long as the number of children per couple averaged out to a number between 3 and 5 I think the required numbers would be made.

You don't sound dumb at all. Aden is a town on the Southern coast of the Arabian Peninsula. Apparently, it was occupied by the BEIC in 1837 to halt piracy, and it remained a British colony until 1963 (I'd only ever heard of it because my grandad was stationed there in the 50s). Having an opium War would also result in an Indian-held Hong Kong (or similar Chinese town). It would also be benificial to the TL as it explains the Chinese hatred of Europeans, and kind of justifies the union with Japan, modernisation and eventual Asia-pacific War.

I'm now firmly set on Victoria marrying an Indian Prince, but it causes a big problem. Namely, if she were to marry a prince, one would assume she's actually have to live in India, which the royals didn't do until the establishment of the Empire in 1857. In 1857, Victoria was 38; far too old to be marrying and starting to have children. So what I'm thinking is an earlier rebellion, resulting in the empire being declared in 1837, resulting in Victoria marrying on time and in industrialisation and education schemes occuring slightly earlier due to the royals' vestedn interest in both. Does that sound reasonable? Callumthered (talk) 09:51, April 17, 2013 (UTC)

That's an interesting idea, though I don't plan on bringing computers into this TL too early. I do, however, plan on, by the '40s or '50s, create things that are in some steampunk works such as automatons (they run off of tapes sometimes) CrimsonAssassin (talk) 02:46, April 14, 2013 (UTC)

Sorry i don't think i explained what i meant properly. I edited it so that they never formed the nation at all, and just requested membership as individual tribes the same way all the other tribes of the Koori Union did so, so that should sort that right?

 * A few large ships and training for Kooris to use them.
 * The training to perform metal working, ship builidng, and advanced combat tactics for the Koori Union.

Sorry man but i want to keep my independence. I'm all for forming an alliance and a highly profitable trade deal for both of us, but i want this to be a partnership of equals.

Well i'm not that worried about conflict, as i aim to be defensive for the immediate future. However i will aid you in conflict as long as it doesn't mean the death of my nation. Thanks for saying the deal still stands. At this moment if i am correct the deal looks like this:

Orissa:

Koori Union:
 * Weapons and ammunition
 * Supplies and aid
 * Ships and training
 * Traning in metal working, ship building, and advanced combat tactics.
 * Advisors and translators
 * Alliance
 * Trade deal
 * Acceptance of Hindu missionaries into the Koori Union

I'm sorry but i'm not going to allow foreigners be a part of the Koori Union government. I see this as the first step into becoming a puppet state and as a result i can't accept it. This is what i had in mind for the three groups of people you sent over:

Is this acceptable to you?
 * Advisors: The advisors shall advise the Tribal Council on matters selected by the council when advice is required. They shall only act as aides to the Tribal Council, and shall hold only that post.
 * Translators: The translators shall document the Aboriginie languages in the hope of improving communication between the Koori Union and Orissa. They shall also be allowed to teach Hindi to small groups, so to also improve communiction.
 * Missionaries: They shall be provided building materials and labour to help build small Hindu temples in the settlements of the Koori Union, and shall be allowed to preach to small groups.

Also in terms of the items promised. I shall only allow the above when i am provided with the items promised to the Koori Union. i'm sorry but i need them to continue with the plan i have drawn up for the Koori Union. Hailstormer (talk) 19:00, April 19, 2013 (UTC)

I agree about the everything in one year thing, it would be both implausible and unbalanced. As a result can i ask that i get the weapons, armour, and ammunition this turn? Aswell as just a couple of ships? This is all i need to continue with my plans and it would not be forgotten if you agreed to it. In return i would let the translators enter the nations to start learning the Koori language and to start teaching Hindi. In terms of the rest of the items, we can agree a suitable timetable after this is agreed upon. I would like it if we built ports in the settlements of: Cadi, Jagera, and Kulin. I would like the profit percentages to be: 60% Koori - 40% Orissa. This would then change to: 80% Koori - 20% Orissa, after 10 years. Is this acceptable to you? I would also like to add that your help improving and raising the Koori Union is much appreciated, and that i understand what i have to gain here. Hailstormer (talk) 19:20, April 19, 2013 (UTC)

Btw when do you think i will get my first lot of Orissa ships? I could really do with them within the next three years if that is ok? At that point the ports will be completed so they shall have areas to habour aswell :) Hailstormer (talk) 20:38, April 20, 2013 (UTC)

Well i'm glad we are on the same wavelength :) Hailstormer (talk) 20:44, April 20, 2013 (UTC)

Yeah i have been thinking about that. Are you sure there has ever been a common cold epidemic? I can't find record of one ever happening? In terms of smallpox i have a plan to deal with it, but it is going to be difficult :/ Hailstormer (talk) 20:56, April 20, 2013 (UTC)

Oh fair enough, well in that case we should get the cold out of the way soon, when my population hasn't grown huge amounts. I think 15% is a fair estimate since it mainly affects the elderly. My plan for smallpox is to let it run its course, with 30% of my population being killed, a bit lower than claims in OTL, which will be explained by more efficent knowledge of disease from Orissa. However this will take place over the course of a few years, as it runs down the eastern coast, so areas that are hit badly one year will be recovering the next. I just have to make sure these two epidemics are spread out effectively :) Hailstormer (talk) 21:10, April 20, 2013 (UTC)

Sounds like a good plan to me :) Hailstormer (talk) 21:28, April 20, 2013 (UTC)

I agree with the logic in terms of the ports. In terms of the influx of your civilians into the Koori Union, i aim to let my population build up first. I think it would be best if perhaps after the smallpox epidemic, that i will allow Orrisan citizens into the Koori Union in substantial numbers to help the population recover. What do you think? Hailstormer (talk) 20:20, April 21, 2013 (UTC)

Can you remove the bit about the cold please? I need a couple more turns to consolidate other things before the epidemic. Also shouldn't my ships have arrived this turn? Hailstormer (talk) 22:20, April 21, 2013 (UTC)

You need to add the handing over of the ships and blueprints to your 1679 post as i need them for 1680 and you said i would get them in 1679. Also i'm going to be the one starting the cold epidemic, as it is my own country. I don't want my country to end up as a puppet state in everything but name. Also i would appreciate your support on the talk page in the discussion over my post. Hailstormer (talk) 23:16, April 22, 2013 (UTC)

Ok so at this point i assume you have seen what has happened. So in order of importance. Smallpox and the Plague has had their outbreaks and i have lost tens of thousands of Kooris, which equates to around 40% of my population, a huge loss but not catastrophic. Due to the speed this epidemic has come about i won't let any Orissan expats into the Koori Union. This is both to deal with anti-Orissan anger in the Koori Union and also so that the Kooris are not overwhelmed by an influx of foreigners. Secondly, the ports completion has been retconned, and from my talks with other they shall not be complete till at least the next turn, so we have to wait till then before we post anything about it. I will just say work on the ports continues. Finally, and i don't know why i have put this last, but my expansion has been retconned and as a result reordered. The new borders of the Koori Union only includes the coastal settlments of Kulin, Jagera, and Cadi. So the settlement of Bamaga doesn't exist along with its port. On a brighter note at least i don't have to deal with smallpox and the plague again :) Hailstormer (talk) 17:23, April 23, 2013 (UTC)

I wouldn't say they have been a waste of time. They have set up the foundations for a decent partnership in the future once i have my nation sorted out. It has just been unfortunate with the mod event and moderating of posts. Hailstormer (talk) 18:17, April 23, 2013 (UTC)

One final thing. You are still going to stand up to your side of the deal and hand over the ships and blueprints right? Hailstormer (talk) 18:25, April 23, 2013 (UTC)

I know man. Don't worry i won't forget it. Hailstormer (talk) 20:21, April 23, 2013 (UTC)

That will be greatly appreciated :) Btw did you change your post to hand over the blueprints in the end? Hailstormer (talk) 20:38, April 23, 2013 (UTC)

Ok i will do so. Once again thanks for helping the Koori Union get started, and as i said it won't be forgotten :) Hailstormer (talk) 20:44, April 23, 2013 (UTC)

My bad, i thought it was up to 1685. Hailstormer (talk) 21:53, April 28, 2013 (UTC)

Sig
Hehe, no, it didn't work. I've just taken to writing out the sig you made in source mode (which is why I don't have time & date). For some reason, everytime I remove the SUBST... it comes back.

BTW, Cour and I have been thinking about a new map game. It combines to create your own nation from BFE with the down to earth, plausible, medieval nature of PM.

Interested?

Hey!
Hello!

I'm very sorry I haven't responded to your message, I must seem very rude. Just with the start of term (and rowing) again, I've not had much time.

The map is exactly right, and I can't stress how thankful I am for your work on it.

I think about everything is pretty much worked out with regards to India. Demographics, religion, politics, subdvisions and international status. All I have to do now is 1, work out the royal family after George III (I want princess Charlotte to survive to become queen, but not so long that she eclipses Victoria) and 2, actually write about all the things we agreed on!

So yeah, thanks again for all the help, and if you think of something else to do with NAV, don't hesitate to point it out. And if there's ever something you think I could help you with, please ask.

Regards, Callumthered (talk) 07:03, April 24, 2013 (UTC)

nevermind about the calcuations i fixed them, and im proud to say that Rome and its allies have crushed Azerbaijian fully. I am going to organize it into a puppet state in a Personal Union with one of Romes nobles, Isaac. Rome will most likely annex some ports as well, but otherwise it will be left fully intact. DS|Fear the Mutated Dean Sims Bomb, Fear It 19:03, April 24, 2013 (UTC)

NotLAH - South Africa
I have added you as South Africa on NotLAH, as you requested. Welcome to the game! Mscoree (talk) 19:18, April 25, 2013 (UTC)

Congratulations
Congratulations, you are now a Lieutenant in the TSPTF. I would like to spend sometime discussing those powers:


 * You should now notice a red button at the top of every article with the word "Delete". You can use this to delete articles, obviously. Use this power sparingly and always stay within the framework of the Deletion Policy. The policy itself was passed with little discussion, so if you have any suggestions or comments regarding it I would be glad to hear it.
 * You can also block users from editing. This can be done by clicking on the History page for articles or the Contributions tab on editor's user pages. Again, use this sparingly. This is our most destructive tool. We don't have a policy on this, but there is a general custom that has been followed: always assume good faith with edits (unless obviously vandalism), warn before blocking (try using the three strikes approach) and start with short block durations for first time offenders. Generally other administrators will not interfere with your decisions regarding blocks, as long as it appears fair on its face.
 * You will also notice a button on the top of every article that says "Protect". With this you can prevent certain people from editing a single article. The first level prevents anons and new users from editing an article. The second level limits editing only to administrators. Use this to prevent excessive vandalism or to prevent edit wars between users.
 * There are other obscure powers that are not used often. If you have any questions on those or the ones I mentioned above, feel free to ask me.

Again, congratulations on being elected to the TSPTF and good luck.

Lordganon (talk) 08:32, April 26, 2013 (UTC)

Congratulations! I was hoping the TSPTF would chose you. There really isn't a better choice (no offence to all) than you. I hope we can continue to grow to be good friends. Reximus55 (talk) 08:44, April 26, 2013 (UTC)

Map Games
Remember not to let it get to your head.

Just add the deletion tag to them for now - there is always exceptions, you know?

You know I go over everything on this wiki, lol. I will read it, no worries.

Sure man, if anything opens up, we'll let you know. Thanks for the offer. Vladivostok (talk) 11:26, April 28, 2013 (UTC)

Username
I chose Seiga Miyako as it is a combination of two of my favourite Touhou characters (Seiga Kaku and Yoshika Miyako).

Anyway, the Username "Kogasa" is already taken by someone else. To be honest, even though Kogasa Tatara is also one of my favourite Touhou characters, I didn't consider of choosing a Username with the name Kogasa. -Kogasa  2013年4月28日 20:29:58 (JST)

Can you copy and paste this for the next two turns? That would be amazing! I'll be back for Sunday.

Italia continues to strengthen its military by improving the efficiency of the submarines. Nya Gyptios and Siam expand by 5000sqkm while the Aymaras expand 10000sqkm inland.

What a war against Persia? Yeah I'm up for it. <font color="#000000">VonGlusenburg (talk to Von!) 23:41, May 2, 2013 (UTC)

Imperium Guy, I am asking you to assist me (Persia) in PMII to r=defeat the Muslim invaders who want to take over our nation. A lot of ex-Orissan ex-pats will be fighting on the side of the Arabian Federation. I really hope you could agree to this. In reality, I do not want to die. I am willing to offer you tons of money in gold currency (7200 Darics ~ $10 million).

On a side note, the Balochistan/Sindhustan thing was the result of a promise Punjab had made with me to split the nation in half, based on ethnicity. The more Indian half would go to them, and I was to get the more Arab/Persian half. That is, obviously, on hold for now. PLEASE HELP ME! Reximus55 (talk) 08:57, May 7, 2013 (UTC)

NotLAH: Netherlands - South Africa
Since the Netherlands are still fairing pretty well, I think a complete union or puppet state wouldn't make much sense. An alliance however would probably work. Mscoree (talk) 14:19, May 6, 2013 (UTC)

Thanks. I have no idea how that algorithim works. Vivaporius: "I don't need a slogan" 23:51, May 10, 2013 (UTC)

Thank you very much. Like before, I have you to thank for my progress in the game. I'll follow your advice in taking those bits of land, and I will be giving the Somali guy coastland simply because I like him. As for Myanmar, I wasn't annoyed at all. In fact, I thought I made a post stating that I understood and that i was just going to move on to Sudan instead (hence the reason I stopped expanding for 15 years to avoid that penalty). And I'll back you defense for as long as you need it. :) Vivaporius: "I don't need a slogan" 15:22, May 11, 2013 (UTC)

Dude, you can always trust me. :P

I'll put as much detail into my expansion a I can, and I'll make Kitara my primary target. In 1700, I'll be placing a colony in OTL Perth. You should settle north of me so we can monopolize Austrailia together. On the matter of reservoirs, I should start building some as well given Ethiopia's long history of drought. I need a safety net soon. And I did notice your unification of India. I suspected it was for the population bonus as I've seen that in 90% of you algorithims, your massive population had won the day. And on Adal, I noticed that myself. I think its a little wierd and I always thought that part of the map was the most inaccurate. Its a shame Africa doesn't get the same amount of attention as the other parts of the globe. Vivaporius: "I don't need a slogan" 15:43, May 11, 2013 (UTC)

Awesome. I'll ask you for the experts when you post your turn. And I'll incorporate the vassals in the future for the bonus. Vivaporius: "I don't need a slogan" 16:02, May 11, 2013 (UTC)

NotLAH Map
Thanks for your expressed interest in making maps. Here are a few changes that need to be made on your current map.
 * Montana should be under US control
 * Pittsburgh (southwest Pennsylvania shouldn't be US)
 * Susquehanna needs to be added
 * All of Key West should be the Conch Republic (light blue)
 * British Columbia (the province) should be clear
 * British Columbia (the nation in OTL Vancouver) should be colored
 * Brazil should have all of southern Brazil, including Rio De Janiero, and be touching Bolivia
 * You should probably remove the zombies at this point since most of them are already removed from the map. Instead just show the nations' borders
 * France should be touching Brittany through the western coastline
 * Scandinavia and the Confederation of the Baltics (although holding strong ties) should probably be different colors since right now its kind of confusing
 * The USSR controls all of the Turkish occupied processions in Romania and should control all of the coast, into Bulgaria.
 * The USSR controls Crimea
 * Canada doesn't control Greenland
 * Jutland is not controlled by Scandinavia or the Confederation of the Baltics (uncolored)
 * The German, Italian, and Baltic city states of Brunswick, Lüneburg, Ingria, Livonian Confederation, Hesse, Oldenburg, Anhalt, Pomerania, Bavaria, Venice, Frankfurt, Oldenburg should be marked out in some way or left uncolored
 * The Teutonic Order should be colored
 * Austria should be colored
 * Oman should be uncolored
 * Alaska should control all of OTL Alaska, including the islands north of Vancouver
 * Japan should be cleared of zombies
 * Saudi Arabia should control all of OTL Saudi Arabia
 * The Soviets should control Turkish Rize, Erzurum, and everything from there to the border, and south to Lake Van
 * The EHU (use Saudi Arabia's color) controls Turkish Bingol, Mus, everything between Lake Van and Diyarbikar, Hatay, and the area near Adana

Thanks, Mscoree (talk) 13:35, May 12, 2013 (UTC)

If you want you can just leave the infected zone uncolored. Mscoree (talk) 13:40, May 12, 2013 (UTC)

Okay sure. That way we can have the border intersect national borders, showing where zombies have infiltrated nations. Good idea. Mscoree (talk) 13:43, May 12, 2013 (UTC)

The Teutonic Order currently controls the former nation of Kaliningrad (the uncolored spot on the old map), and from Thorn to Memel. Here's a map you can use to get a general idea:   Mscoree (talk) 16:18, May 12, 2013 (UTC)

didnt see anything on the page for expanding south Africa...is it supposed to be? I think i updated the map completly, but can you double check for me? Let me know how we can help each other out G greg e (talk) 15:34, May 12, 2013 (UTC)

Awsome... so i need to add a providence to south africa and i think mine is up to date, minus zombies... when i update it (in about half-hour), will you add zombies to it? I think we should use mine as a base since i already too the time to clean up Europe and Turkey. Also we need to resovle the greenland issue w/Mscoree. As Candas post clearly said they were colonizing Greenland.

They are on my map... a lavanderish color (sorry but im colorblind Purple-Yellow) but love making maps and stuff lol. Anyway i think mine is fully updated now. G greg e (talk) 16:22, May 12, 2013 (UTC)
