World War I
Okay, so on Axis vs Allies World War II started, would World War One start similiar to how it started in OLT? Also, do we need an algorithm to annex something. Enclavehunter 17:32, March 18, 2012 (UTC)

I'm not sure. I'll generally let players play as they will unitl 1912-1915, where a random event might spark the war. But other than that, it's the player's call. Unless you plan on annexing something that belongs to another player, then no, you don't need and algorithm. Monster Pumpkin 02:20, March 19, 2012 (UTC)

Hold it. Why would the motive for all three be ten, when only the life of Portugal is in danger at the moment? Monster Pumpkin 23:56, March 22, 2012 (UTC)

If Spain wins, you are all doomed. And that's a ten total, not a thirty. Syngraféas Enallaktikí̱ Istoría, Dic mihi lingua Anglorum. 00:21, March 23, 2012 (UTC)

This is the first wave of the war. If Spain wins here, than only Portugal and southern France will fall. Only portugal should have the +10. Monster Pumpkin 00:23, March 23, 2012 (UTC)

It's still a ten. Syngraféas Enallaktikí̱ Istoría, Dic mihi lingua Anglorum. 00:44, March 23, 2012 (UTC)

Look, I'm gonna change it up a little. We'll stick with just dominating Portugal for now. We're pulling out of France and the Caribbean. Once we have built up our armies enough, we will resume. For now, though, truce (until World War I when we can join the Triple Entente). BNSF1995, Alive since 1995 02:33, March 23, 2012 (UTC)

Tip
I am not going to be playing this game, but I cannot stress this enough: Decolonization. Many games have been ruined because Britain retained Indian till 2000 and Italy kept Libya until 1990. Look to the Africa decolonization timeline on wikipedia for reference. I am saying this because my game, Axis vs Allies Reloaded, seems to be dying out. I want to see a WWII or WWI based game completed (all three of my AvAs have failed : PitaKang- (Talk | Contribs) 20:11, March 23, 2012 (UTC)

Your game is not failing, don't worry, we won't let that happen. And yes, we will not be keeping our colonies forever. And why would you not want to join this game? Korea's open! :D Monster Pumpkin 20:14, March 23, 2012 (UTC)

Quing Coloring for Venezuela?
As the title says, can somebody quickly color Venezuela, the nation I'm currently playing as? Ianian58 03:17, March 26, 2012 (UTC)

Monroe Doctrine and Rule #8
On rule #8, it says that Asian and European countries that want colonies in the Americas must have to fight the US on per of the Monroe Doctrine. The Monroe Doctrine was actually directed toward the European powers only, but Asian nations were never mentioned in the Doctrine, so technically, Asian nations are allowed to have colonies in the Americas, but must deal with the nation that there colonizing or invading. 'But the rules say so, so no Asian or European colonies. Enclavehunter 06:51, March 26, 2012 (UTC)'

Well, Asian countries weren't mentioned since they didn't have the capacity to colonize America, and they had all the needed resources in Asia, no need to establish a massive, expensive, years to develop an oversea colony. Now let's say in history some big power in Asia sprang up, and invaded Mexico, to colonize it in the 19th century, (implausible, but whatever.) I'm sure the U.S would've interfered.Ianian58 21:42, March 27, 2012 (UTC)

Yeah, I made the rule to contain some of the impluasibility that tends to happen so that Japan doesn't own Ecuador or something, lol. The U.S. would prevent anyone from colonizing here Monster Pumpkin 21:44, March 27, 2012 (UTC)

Discussion
Brazil: So, what's the deal

Italy: So what are we doing?

Japan: Which war is trying to end.

China: Would like to take back territories lost from previous wars. Whether by diplomacy. ie. offering to buy Macau for Japan (Of which Japan never responded). Or by war, in the case of Germany.

Britain: Britain will not release protection over the regime in control of Hong Kong, as it was given by a treaty. Any attempts to take it will be met by force.

Brazil: Our goal is to ensure that we can deal with the Swiss issue. I suggest Italy can have the land, but must pay for it.

Spain: We of course remain committed to global security. Should these negotiations break down, we will be first to respond. We suggest stopping trade with Italy and its allies, and if not, placing strict tarriffs on them to discourage military build-up.

Britain: If Switzerland wishes to give up part of their land to Italy, then that is their choice. We should not force them to surrender it though.

Ottoman EMpire: The Ottomans want Egypt back frm Britan, which was taken illegaly years ago, we have offered 35 years of oil while they still retain the Suez Canal, but they have refused, while not supporting the Swiss siezure of land should it happen, whoever helps the Ottmans regain Egypt shall have Ottman support as well as the support of its modern Army and Modern medium large navy.

Brazil: Well Egypt was independent from the Ottoman Empire just by the time Britain ruled it. I sugegst a referendum to see if the people want independence, return to Ottoman rule, or continuing rule under Britain.

Britain: We don't need the Ottoman's oil, we can get some from Kuwait, the Trucial Coast, and by purchasing it from Persia. The Parliment will consider the referendum.

World Watchmaster: LISTEN TO ME PEOPLE! IT IS IMPLAUSIBLE FOR SWITZERLAND TO GO TO ITALY BECAUSE:

A: Switzerland is neutral and there's nothing you guys can do about it.

B: Because of Switzerland's location in the middle of the mountains, nobody can realisitcally invade it unless you invent the nuclear bomb and bomb Zurich or something.

C: You can't make anyone give up their land. That is THEIR CHOICE!

Syngraféas Enallaktikí̱ Istoría, Dic mihi lingua Anglorum. 23:00, April 3, 2012 (UTC)

Both 1 and 3 are what I said, World Watchmaster, lol. They can realistically invade Switzerland, it would just be incredibly difficult and resource consuming to do so. Monster Pumpkin 23:02, April 3, 2012 (UTC)

China: Would like to renegociate the unequal treaties with the countries of: Britain, US, France, Sweden/Norway, Russia, Germany, Portugal, and Japan

Brazil: It would like to reverse the terms of the unequal treaties with Portugal (unless if it didn't have any).

As I have already posted, you don't own any part of Sakhalin. You would have to declare a full war to get them, which would go beyond just annexation. Monster Pumpkin 23:56, April 3, 2012 (UTC)

Some questions:
 * 1) Shouldn't Japan's location be +4?
 * 2) Isn't island advantage only applied to the defender?
 * 3) If it isn't, wouldn't it be 4, because it isn't cumulative?

Look, the Algorithm works like this in Strength: Side with Bigger Population or Industry gets points for that. If someone sends aid, then you get points for that. But the size of an army simply isn't applied in the Offical Algorithm.TacoCopper

That's copletely unintelligent. You can't just completely disregard the strength I have aroud Rome

Actually it is completely intelligent, and the strength of the army, defenses, around Rome does not matter, it is about the side with bigger population and industry as stated in by Taco. Enclavehunter 04:44, April 15, 2012 (UTC)

Discussion and Counter-Proposals
Peru would like to maintain its hold on the island of Sicily and receive reparation payments from Italy to compensate for lost lives, machinery, etc

Britain: Britain would allow payments, but we don't think you should have Sicily, as neither the other European nations nor the Italian people allow it.

This is a form of castigation for the Italians. Peruvian forces are already occupying the island. We are going to give it back eventually but for now we would like to maintain our hold there ''as a form of punishment. ''The Latin American Nations will soon present a unified counterproposal under all of our countries.

Britain: Four things: Answer thoughs and we will see what happens.
 * 1) How long do you plan to hold onto it?
 * 2) How do we know that you will gice it back?
 * 3) Personally, we doubt that you would be able to maintain it.
 * 4) Why are you demanding land from Italy when they never declared war on you and you never even had to get into this war in the first place?

Our military is already there occupying it. We will create a coalition government to maintain order. We will add a clause to a treaty, stating that we will return the island to Italian hands after a designated amount of time. We went to war united under the call of the Confederation of Latin America. and lastly, we really don't think Britain should propose a treaty at all because it wasnt even involved in the war.

Britain: We meant how long, exactly, do you plan to hold it. Besides, we are negotiating this treaty so that it is not overly one sided. Also, I don't remember seeing the Confederation going to war, nor did I see any reason why the whole groupd had to go.

Peru proposes to hold the island for 2-3 years, the more no less. The Confederation went to war because all member states declared war. Brazil called on the Confederation to action and we all did on our own accord. With all due respect Britain, the purpose of neutrality is to not care about the outcome of a certain conflict yet here you are drafting your own treaty and you were neither a victor nor a loser.

France would like to keep some Italian land, just a decent sized amount.

Britain: 

@Peru: That timetable seems acceptable. And yes, we were not in the war, but as the most powerful nation on the planet, we should be able to propose anything we want in a treaty that occurs near our interests.

@France: Maybe you would like Libya instead? You might also be able to get Italian Somaliland as well, but there are not many French people in actual Italy.

Peru accepts Great Britain's proposal, so long as it is includded in the treaty. We hope G Britain excuses anything that seemed disrespectful

Italy is willing to cede all of its African colonies as long as none of the Italian mainland, Sicily, or Sardinia is occupied

There is already an accepted proposal for the occupation of Sicily(3 years max) and then the island will be returned to Italy. And really, Italy is in no position to make demands here.

France: We will accept Libya instead.

Whoever took Sicily didn't even make an algorithm. They just said they took it

Ottoman Empire: We will keep Constatyinople and all land. We will allow the Allies to divide Morroco and Libya between them as well as giving them oil in exchange for letting the Empire keep the horn.

in better judgement, we will allow Italy to take back Sicily. Occupation forces will leave by the end of next turn.

Confederation of Latin America's United Proposals: Brazil gets Ottoman North Africa, France gains Sardinia, Peru gains Sicily, Ethiopia gains Eritrea, Chile gains Italian Somaliland, and Greece and Bulgaria rule Thrace and Constantinople. Hate to ruin everyone's plans, but for a fact, the Latin American nations would not be able to hold colonies. They are still poor and nowhere near as powerful the European nations, and their grip on any colonies would be broken very quickly. Reparations are the best you can get. Besides, France has already declared that they will take Libya. Monster Pumpkin 00:11, April 16, 2012 (UTC)

They've industrialized and modernized so they are not as bad as you say they are. Plus, they fought most of this war.

You can't just modernize over a period over a few years. Even then, they wouldn't be powerful enough. Brazil's only advantage is that they are part of Portugal, who is modernized and is practically right at the war zone. And also, it is very unlikely that the Latin American nations would defeat the Italians, and I never saw you do an algorithim in the first place. France really did the most fighting. Also, please sign your posts. Monster Pumpkin 00:18, April 16, 2012 (UTC)

I think there should be no exchange of land, but a creation of a independent-city Jerusalem and a small extension into the Meditrennean Sea, the independent-city would have a free code of law, for Christians, Jewish, and Muslims to worship in their Holy City, and the Ottoman Emire would lose full control of the city- and maybe a payment to the winning natons, that last part I myself barely considered it.

As I have said, no South American nation other than Portugal-Brazil can permantly occupy anything. I will create a new treaty if needed. Monster Pumpkin 02:16, April 16, 2012 (UTC)

My bad on the no algorithm part( totally forgot-new player curse). Peru makes no demands other than the normal reparation payments owed to the victors. Peruvian forces will leave Sicily immediately; They are satisfied by the occupation of Italy by France.

Brazil: WHAT?! Why do I have no gains from Italy or the Ottomans?! Can I just least have Ottoman North Africa and Central Italy?

Mainly because I have not been online to make the changes, lol. Italy said that they would give up Italian Somiliand, and if you used a bit of force I'm sure you could gain Morocco as well. Monster Pumpkin 03:05, April 17, 2012 (UTC)

Actually guys, the Golden Horn would stay to the Ottomans, no matter what. It was one of those "we all want it, but hey, you can have it" scenarios. Syngraféas Enallaktikí̱ Istoría, Dic mihi lingua Anglorum. 03:11, April 17, 2012 (UTC)

By this point Greek Nationalism had reached a point that they wanted Constantinople, regardless of what other nations thought. Bulgaria was similarly nationalistic at this point, and the First Balkan War probably had not left their minds. Monster Pumpkin 03:15, April 17, 2012 (UTC)

Brazil: The Golden Horn will go to the Greeks and Bulgarians as they have been fighting so long to earn it. Still, what about MY claims?

Britian: As I believe I have suggested, Morocco and Italian Somililand can go to Brazil as long as there are no objections.

Brazil: But we invaded Ottoman North Africa! That should be ours! France can have Morocco.

Britain: I understand your point, but I think you failed to specify which part of North Africa you meant, as Morocco was part of the Ottoman Empire and is in North Africa. How about this: Since TacoCopper is out until Saturday, both Brazil and France jointly occupy Morocco and Libya until he gets back and you can negotiate with him instead.

Brazil: Fine. I will wait for him.

France: I'm back! I'll take Morocco, and Brazil can take Libya if they want.

Brazil: THANK YOU!!

France: Welcome.

WWI Alliances
Can we define all of the alliances for the war, because it has gotten kinda complex and hard to keep up with. I think this is it:

France, Russia, CLA,Japan, China, and the Ottomans.

Germany, Italy, Austria-Hungary, and Great Britain.

Just want to know if I got it all down correctly.TacoCopper

Those are the major players in the war, although there are some other ones as well, such as Portugal, China, and Japan. Monster Pumpkin 18:23, April 28, 2012 (UTC)

Okay, i'll update this list.TacoCopper

Japan declared war against Germany Gemralts 01:35, April 29, 2012 (UTC)

Yes. I (Japan), did. And I have to ask, why does everybody (mostly the mods), thinks that they'll get territory frm Japan, and haven't changed borders since the beginning of the war. I'm not complaining, but I have to ask. Enclavehunter 01:37, April 29, 2012 (UTC)

I really don't know. I don't want more land in the pacific, but I don't get what the other players are talking about. The map can be updated soon. Monster Pumpkin 14:54, April 29, 2012 (UTC)

Oops, sorry Japan.

I did this as neutral as I could and using the new method. I would value input. David Rain 10:54, April 29, 2012 (UTC)

You're supposed to use the old algorithm. Gemralts 14:10, April 29, 2012 (UTC)

This is the old algorithim, but there are a few things I need to change here. Monster Pumpkin 14:51, April 29, 2012 (UTC)

I don't actually believe this, but Britain seems to have won. Monster Pumpkin 15:01, April 29, 2012 (UTC)

I really think Hispaniola should have been given 10 motive points and 5 location points, i mean Britain invaded them so its life or death right? also the British are invading them so i think that constitutes AT the war points, even if you dont give them the mootive points, its just enough to tie.AwesomePeruvian

Ah, I knew someone would mention this. Please keep in mind that Hispaniola is part of Latin America, and the capturing of Hispaniola will not end the nation.

About the location. I generally tend to think that once in the nation, it would be five. Britain was not in the nation when it attacked, but now that they have a beachead, Hispaniola will have 5 for location when the next battle will happen.

Monster Pumpkin 17:11, April 29, 2012 (UTC)

To explain my reasoning: 1) the country’s sovereign existence as a member of CoLA is threatened. Besides that we are defending Serbia therefore it is a moral issue. Big Cheese does not contain CoLA? I take it this is based on OTL influence since most of a continent does not count (sorry if that seems rude, I ment no disrespect)? David Rain 19:02, April 29, 2012 (UTC)

As I have said, you are not an independent nation, you are part of Latin America, which is its own nation. Latin America will not cease to be if it loses Hispaniola. Moreover, the reason why it is political is because the war is strictly political. There are no genocides going on, therefore it is a politcal justification.

To become a "big cheese" a nation has to command significant Political, Economic, and Military capabilities world wide, witch Latin America does not. Monster Pumpkin 19:12, April 29, 2012 (UTC)

Actually, you guys made one mistake: Hispaniola gets a six tactical because it is an island and the defender. Thus it wins by one point. Syngraféas Enallaktikí̱ Istoría, Dic mihi lingua Anglorum. 19:20, April 29, 2012 (UTC)

Not quite. Because the defender is an island, it technically has the two for defending, plus two for being an island, thus four. You don't combine the two values. Monster Pumpkin 19:23, April 29, 2012 (UTC)

CoLA

British Guyana

 * Location: 5
 * Tactical: 2
 * Strength: 3
 * Motive: 5
 * Random: 4

Result
CoLa: 24 British Guyana: 19

The Confederation successfully invades Guyana and occupies the colony, effectively kicking the British out of South America by taking their only foothold away.

Your motive should only be five, although that doesn't change the result. Monster Pumpkin 19:28, April 30, 2012 (UTC)
