Discussion
It might be a good idea to use the space in the bottom left of the map to show China without any zombies. Mscoree (talk) 14:04, April 22, 2013 (UTC)

My Antarctic claims aren't on here... RevenantAscension (talk) 19:20, April 23, 2013 (UTC)(Florida)

What are you claims? Mscoree (talk) 21:46, April 26, 2013 (UTC)

My claims in Antarctica (as of 1975, when I originally Made them and began building a fortified base in the Transantarctic Mountains) from 150 W (or from wherever the U.S. claim to Marie Byrd Land ends) to 80 E. RevenantAscension (talk) 12:34, April 30, 2013 (UTC)

Free Alaska now has soverignity over all of Alaska.

South Africa should be colored, with the nations of Lesotho and the surrounding area a lighter color. Mscoree (talk) 13:13, May 1, 2013 (UTC)

The map still has communist and zombies within the borders of Argentina, according to mod events, communsim never entered Argentina nor should be below the border of Argentina in Chile as there is a defensive wall. G greg e (talk) 18:51, May 2, 2013 (UTC)

Claiming the rest of Antarctica. RevenantAscension (talk) 19:18, May 8, 2013 (UTC)

MAKE THE MAP BIGGER -OREOTOAST

I would be willing to make/edit the map, on the condition that people make a list of changes required of it or post mini-maps of what their region should look like. G greg e (talk)

Current Map?
Okay, I don't see my country on the World map, let alone many of the other new nations...I don't have the software to update it, but PLEASE someone update it. Thanks. Daeseunglim (talk) 02:03, May 12, 2013 (UTC)

Help me make a list of new nations and their boundries and ill update it to the best of my ability. G greg e (talk) 03:11, May 12, 2013 (UTC)

I will begin to make a list tonight if possible. If you have any nations to add we'll do it on a newly created map discussion/editors page G greg e (talk) 03:18, May 12, 2013 (UTC)

Ill be using this page here  Map Discussion and Changelog (Night of the Living Alternate History Map Game) We don't really need another page, just post it here.

Check out the map... working on Antartica, i need a sit report on Europe and Asia  to continue

I posted this on Imperium Guy's talk page:

Here are a few changes that need to be made on your current map.


 * Montana should be under US control done
 * Pittsburgh (southwest Pennsylvania shouldn't be US) added to Erie
 * Susquehanna needs to be added already is...a different shade has been applied
 * All of Key West should be the Conch Republic (light blue) done
 * British Columbia (the province) should be clear it is...dark shade of purple...lighter shade applied
 * British Columbia (the nation in OTL Vancouver) should be colored done
 * Brazil should have all of southern Brazil, including Rio De Janiero, and be touching Bolivia Brazil increased...maybe even more?
 * 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 done
 * France should be touching Brittany through the western coastline done
 * Scandinavia and the Confederation of the Baltics (although holding strong ties) should probably be different colors since right now its kind of confusing done
 * 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 according to their posts, they colonized the coastal regions of it, for now i shall leave it
 * Jutland is not controlled by Scandinavia or the Confederation of the Baltics (uncolored) done
 * 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 left uncolored for now
 * The Teutonic Order should be colored I think I did this correctaly 
 * Austria should be colored done
 * Oman should be uncolored it is
 * Alaska should control all of OTL Alaska, including the islands north of Vancouver done
 * Japan should be cleared of zombies done
 * Saudi Arabia should control all of OTL Saudi Arabia done
 * The Soviets should control Turkish Rize, Erzurum, and everything from there to the border, and south to Lake Van done
 * The EHU (use Saudi Arabia's color) controls Turkish Bingol, Mus, everything between Lake Van and Diyarbikar, Hatay, and the area near Adana done, I am using a different green, since its not Saudi Land, but its semi-related

Thanks, Mscoree (talk) 13:35, May 12, 2013 (UTC) My responses are Italicized G greg e (talk) 

Antarctica claims are as follows (even if not shown on the map): USA 150W to 180 1975 (after UR claims), UR 150W to 20W 1972, 1974, Norwegian successor state inherits 20W to 44E, Commonwealth 44 to French claim (light blue) then to 180. Florida also claims 80E to 180, overlapping Commonwealth and inherited French claims 1975 after US claims

Ideally all nations with a government need to be colored, so that will be the next update: lets start another list!!!G greg e (talk)

Frankly, having zombies on the map would make things less confusing. OreoToast555(Talk) 21:01, May 12, 2013 (UTC)

Lord Finnius, Emperor Romanus, and Harvester360
Since there is concerns about these three, and they claim to be brothers, I need to leave a note, and I figured this is the best place to leave it.

They aren't getting banned - but they are, as per policy, barred from heavy interaction in the games.

Mscoree, up to you to determine how much interaction is too much - your game, after all - and let me know if they fail to listen.

On another note - you guys need to archive this talk page, lol.

Lordganon (talk) 09:54, April 19, 2013 (UTC)

It appears they have the intention of working together in the UR. I will allow that, as its probably easier to prevent metagaming that way, and justify them working together, than if they were separate nations. Mscoree (talk) 12:59, April 19, 2013 (UTC)

Unfortunately, that is metagaming for them to do that. In the worst way, as a matter of fact.

Yes, you archived more or less right.

Lordganon (talk) 14:07, April 19, 2013 (UTC)

It makes more sense that two nations in a union would be more 'in the know' than two random, unrelated nations. Mscoree (talk) 19:20, April 19, 2013 (UTC)

Not really - all it does is give them an advantage over others. That's why we have this rule. Lordganon (talk) 08:30, April 20, 2013 (UTC)

Okay, I understand. Mscoree (talk) 12:07, April 20, 2013 (UTC)

First Archive
I made the first archive. Hopefully I did it correctly. Mscoree (talk) 13:09, April 19, 2013 (UTC)

Nations
If you have not already done so, please create a short profile for your nation detailing some basic information and history. Just click on your nation below to get started. If you have created a nation, but your nation isn't list on the template, contact Mscoree so it can be added.

The above template should also appear at the bottom of your nation profile, and at the bottom of all NotLAH pages.

Feel free to start contributing to the other pages as well.

Here is an example of a nation profile: here. Copy the text on that page (in source) and paste it onto your nation page (in source), then change the information.

The Nations page is also in need of improvement. You can help by adding your nation's information.

You can also add your current territories and colonies to the Territories page.

Art
Here are some art/map/flag stuff that you can do.
 * Make flags (see below)
 * Add already existing flags to the nations on the main page

Flags
Nations that need flags. Try to be logic with flag creation by researching the region and creating a flag that positively displays that regions roots/mother country.
 * Juarez
 * Republic of Alaska (Alaskan Rebels)
 * Northwest Federation
 * Forgottonia
 * Isle of Wight
 * London
 * Northern Ireland

Operation Hydra
List of Nations Invited into Operation Hydra:
 * United States of America
 * United Kingdom
 * France- Accepts
 * USSR
 * Poland- Declines
 * Sicily
 * Iran- Declines
 * Iraq- Declines
 * Egypt- Declines
 * Saudi Arabia - Accepts RazorFangZ14 (talk) 14:08, April 21, 2013 (UTC)

 * Confederation of the Baltics- Declines
 * Greece- Declines
 * Iceland- Declines
 * Bohemia
 * Republic of Ireland
 * Malta- Declines
 * Luxembourg- Declines
 * Austria- Declines
 * Scotland

Plan of Action:
Operation Hydra will consist of three key stages:


 * Stage 1: An amphibious assault will start in France, Italy, West Germany, and Spain. While Turkish, EHU, and Soviet forces (if they join) will advance from the Forward Operating Base of Castle Dracula. Pushing through Romania to other regions and Bucharest. Meanwhile other forces will start to rapidly clear out Paris, Berlin, Rome, and Madrid.


 * Stage 2: Once these beach heads and cities are secure a pincer movement will start to move around Europe, clearing the infection by the coast. This will center the mass of zombies in the middle of Europe. FOBs will station artillery pieces to fire at zombie hordes/masses and bombers will be sent out on Scorched Earth tasks. After two months of this Stage 3 will start.


 * Stage 3: The main plan of this is to re-settle the post infected cities. Then advance into the center of Europe where the infection will cornered on the continent. Joint-military air strikes will soften up targets and then the main ground forces will strategically charge in; setting up multiple FOBs. While this is all happening, troops stationed the re-settled post infected towns/cities/villages will establish checkpoints and routine patrols. After all this a new follow up operation will start.

Discussion
Some of the nations on the list don't exist anymore or have different names, so I removed them. Mscoree (talk) 14:28, April 21, 2013 (UTC)

It is against the rules to use RNG if you have a conflict of interest, and aren't a moderator. Mscoree (talk) 14:34, April 21, 2013 (UTC)

Nations
Any nations who wish to liberate Bolivia and Northern Chile in aid of a fellow nation please list yourselves below. Possible Nations: Any others, please list below:
 * United Republic- (Chile is in the UR, and already is at war in Chile.) UR will commit 250,000 troops to this endevour G greg e (talk)
 * United States- (Already aiding the UR)

Thank you for adding your name to the list, Chile is eternally in your debt.

PLAN
Phase 1

This stage will consist of building strong fortifications across Southern Chile. Participating troops will be moved into underground bunkers underneath the Northern Wall ready for the liberation.

Phase 2

Commando raiders and quick armoured battalions will commence lightning raids on the occupied ground. Air cover will be provided in the form of the collaberated airforces of the participating nations. A wave of assasins will be sent to kill the rebel leaders. Falklands Kill Team already sent

Phase 3

Armour in the form of tanks and light artillery will advance at top speed in a night time surprise attack on thee communist occupied territory. Following close behind them will be the infantry followed by any other units.

Phase 4

The mustered special forces of the nations will attack the main enemy camp by helicopter after it has been bombarded by the Royal Navy and/or other nations.

Phase 5

The airports will be taken by the FSF teams.

Phase 6

The country is secured by the UR police forces along with the collaborating armies.

Phase 7

Chile will be eternally in debt (not in money!!!) to the nations that helped it in its hour of need.

Discussion
And just like that everyone is involved in another Vietnam war. The parallel is scary:

Northern communists versus south. Jungle biome. Guerrilla fighters. US involvement slowly escalates.

Hmm Mscoree (talk) 16:18, April 21, 2013 (UTC)

But this time it isn't on the other side of the world, its in the same land mass, so getting support in will be easier Local (talk)

Falklands has already sent a Kill Team to deal with the Rebel leaders

I think the 'kill team' you speak of was the one that was shot down. Mscoree (talk) 16:19, April 21, 2013 (UTC)

No, the downed team were sent in last turn, and the Kill Team were sent in this turn

Despite Argentinian intelligence, the number of soldiers is much less than half the total communist forces. Approaching the camp the Argentinean flank is attacked by guerrilla forces, inflicting heavy casualties. The main UR army manages to reach the battle in time, but the communists flee into the forests, using hit and run tactics to escape the battle.

Discussion
'''This is the correct battle for Northern Chile and Bolivia. Please delete your other algorithm since it's faulty.''' Edboy452

I had to delete the old algorithm because of formatting issues. Mscoree (talk) 19:53, April 22, 2013 (UTC)

Isnt my military score 1.5, as well as stablility higher than 25, when the mods last posted it was above 50. So um yeah, Thanks 63.156.233.78 20:52, April 22, 2013 (UTC)

Also this was supposed to be two seperate battles. And their are other nations such as Florida who are already aiding the UR, i know it might not make a huge difference, but this combined with the military and naval score it makes a huge difference. G greg e (talk) 14:25, April 23, 2013 (UTC)

So, should i fix this, or will a mod being doing it? Please read my originol notes as well as the ones here. Also one of the two battles (that this was supposed to be broken up into two) had naval support, and both had UR armed forces invovled. Thanks G greg e (talk) 16:39, April 23, 2013 (UTC)

I'll add Florida to the algorithm. Mscoree (talk) 20:10, April 23, 2013 (UTC)

The outcome will stay the same, but in the future I'll add Florida (and however else) to the algorithm. Mscoree (talk) 20:12, April 23, 2013 (UTC)

Not disagreeing with the algorithm, but isn't hit and run an offensive tactic, how can you use it to escape a battle? Local (talk) 21:10, April 22, 2013 (UTC)

Yes. They're retreating, reappearing from the jungles, harassing the flanks as they retreat. Mscoree (talk) 12:28, May 5, 2013 (UTC)

Colombia Discussion
ok Colombia's mod events are become kind of biased, the nation leadership is as much as against the Antipope as the rest of the people but you wont fight your own people just because you dont like their beliefs do you?. Panama wouldn't declare war they are infected and thus need to be cleared first, the militia in venezuela is possible though, in the end it doesn't matter it would be plausible revolts or protests but the colombian Union is way more plausible than Argentina and chile together, both nations people hate each other and they are still here, and the worst that has occurred to the UR is some militians in northern chile. why colombia has to have a civil war?. also Colombian,Panamanian and Venezuelan Culture are similar,if not the same. Venezuela's leadership wouldn't declare war against a more prepared nation such as colombia is, neither would do panama without americas support and america is bussy now. i as well would have support against Panama from japan and per se. the Peoples of both countries don't really care about that, they would act like, "oh you don't believe in the pope as leader of christendom? oh well god have mercy on you if you are wrong"

The majority of the protesters and militia aren't against the Colombian government, they just want the removal of the anti pope. Central Americans took the opportunity and are also attacking in protest. If El Salvador and Hondorus can go to war because of a football game, I think a small group of protesters because of religious differences isn't that implausible, especially from the ultra-Catholics And yes, they would fight they're own people considering they're committing 'blasphemy against their religion.' It's nothing major.

well its plausible yes, but my point is, would you be going to war with a nation that is better prepared and more stable and further more. ultracatholics are not most of the population in the countries, and the antipope is doing nothing to attack the pope followers or to even portray catholicism in a different matter, its just a catholic priest that says that the pope has disrespected the nation by choosing to go to a infected nation and a small island rather than a country were he could try to control both hemisphere with grater easy, is pretty much same catholicism, just a different figure. im not like The bay republic or cuba

The "war" is basically militia attacking the border. Nothing major. I'll edit it so it's less confusing. In Colombia they're not at war, they're just protesters. (Moving this discussion to talk page)

Can I take over Clinton County? Also, can you lable the nations on the PA map?Daeseunglim (talk) 18:43, April 26, 2013 (UTC)

Coming back
Hey guys! Just went through some painful class studying and was looking to join back, but it seems Sweden hath fallen to the Zeds...Would it be possible to join back as a rebel force in Yemen, who are ultra-religious extremists, calling themselves the انها تولد من جديد الأموي في سبيل الله' (Umayyad Reborn for Allah or simply Umayyads)''. ''They believe that the zeds are a sign from Allah that it's simply the weak and unfaithful being culled from the Earth, like the Great Flood, and that they must fight to survive and prove their faith? EiplecOco (talk) 20:23, April 23, 2013 (UTC)

Sounds great. You can switch to Yemen/Yemeni rebels if you wish. Welcome back! Mscoree (talk) 01:43, April 24, 2013 (UTC)

Power Armor?
We need to monitor plausibility. I mean, power armor? Seriously? This map game is set in the '70s, not the Fallout Universe. Yank 18:42, May 2, 2013 (UTC)

Damn straight. No power armor, orbital cannons, or any other futuristic items. For your "elite soldiers" you can have pictures of power armor, but just know that it's basically a combat helmet and a paintball mask. Mscoree (talk) 19:18, May 2, 2013 (UTC)

The reserach is already done. Warman555

One more thing how does flordia have halo gear its not 2525 and power armor is still in prototype it needs 10 years of testing. Warman555

I've removed all reference to power armor from the game. Like I said Florida uses pictures of Halo armor, to illustrate what it looks like, but in reality its just a force of combat armor. Mscoree (talk) 14:18, May 3, 2013 (UTC)

Also the Pacifica Naval Force is used to bombard the coastal jungle areas. Troop rush into the cities and should be able to take over the northern providences of Chile and push the communists back into Peru and Bolivia.

Game Dying?
I believe that this game is beginning to shrivel up and die. While i agree that the 1/4 year per day system does allow for more indepth gaming, i believe it is far too time consuming and many things that can be completed within 2 years are usually done in about 2 quarter years. I Propose that we switch to the mainstream "1 halfyear/year per day" system, as to retain members of the game and speed up the process. OreoToast555(Talk) 02:16, May 3, 2013 (UTC)

Discussion
When, O Oreotoast, do you mean to cease abusing our patience? How long is that madness of half year - three months still to mock us? When is there to be an end of that unbridled audacity of yours, swaggering about as it does now? Do not the nightly moderators placed on the map page—do not the watches posted throughout the wiki—does not the alarm of the people, and the union of all good men—does not the precaution taken of assembling the moderators in this most defensible place—do not the looks and countenances of this venerable body here present, have any effect upon this?!?!?!?! Do you not feel that your plans are detected? Do you not see that your conspiracy is already arrested and rendered powerless by the knowledge which every one here possesses of it? What is there that you did last turn, what the turn before—where is it that you were—who was there that you summoned to meet you—what design was there which was adopted by you, with which you think that any one of us is unacquainted?

Shame on the age and on its principles! The moderators are aware of these things; the head moderator sees them; and yet this man lives. Lives! aye, he comes even into the talk page. He takes a part in the public deliberations; he is watching and marking down and checking off for slaughter every individual among us. And we, gallant men that we are, think that we are doing our duty to the map game if we keep out of the way of his frenzied attacks.

O tempora, o mores!

All jokes aside I think a change to six months might be beneficial. If anyone has any other points to bring up, do so here. ''That was a parody of The First Oration Against Catiline, spoken by Cicero, if anyone is curious. '' Mscoree (talk) 14:12, May 3, 2013 (UTC)

I'm thinking um... 1980 we switch to the 6 month system. Just know that i'm not against the current system. OreoToast555(Talk) 21:31, May 3, 2013 (UTC)

Okay starting in 1980 I will switch to six months. Mscoree (talk) 21:57, May 3, 2013 (UTC)

Well to be completely honest I don't like the six months system. I specifically made it three so that wars can be more fun and indepth. I have a few things planned, and I think it would better and more drawn out this way. Mscoree (talk) 03:13, May 5, 2013 (UTC)

Fort Serendipity Discussion
We never attacked Fort Serendipity. RazorFangZ14 (talk) 13:16, May 5, 2013 (UTC)

You had a garrison already in it that did attack.

No we didn't, dude that is so implausible!!! xD In all seriousness no we didn't, we may have had some but I never said that they attacked, they were probably smoking weed because Saudi Arabia legalized it unlike your country! RazorFangZ14 (talk) 13:34, May 5, 2013 (UTC)

Well... you were never part of the garrison, it was mainly: Turkish, Soviet, Iraqi, and Irani forces. You might've not attacked but these other two did.

You really can't make the assumption that they attacked, they haven't made a post saying it have they? So no, so stop making implausible statements. RazorFangZ14 (talk) 13:39, May 5, 2013 (UTC)

There was no attack of Fort Serendipity yet. Since no one made any mention of non Turkish or Soviet forces there, except the generic statement that it would be used by EHU members, it can be assumed that there were no Saudi Arabians or other major belligerents stationed there. Mscoree (talk) 13:43, May 5, 2013 (UTC)

'''With the thing about the garrison, I can tell you the troops numbers since it was me and the USSR who built it and run the base. The Main Belligerents are: Turkey (300,000 Troops), USSR (500,000 Troops), Iran (10,000 troops), Iraq (8,000 Troops), and some other smaller nations like Syria and Jordan, but they don't really have much over there (Around 1,000-3,000 troops).'''

Those nations aren't the belligerents of the war, first of all, and before the fighting any remaining EHU soldiers were withdraw or relocated, if there were any. You still have the fort, no need to kill people who weren't there. Mscoree (talk) 14:03, May 5, 2013 (UTC)

The numbers you put are made up, never before mentioned, and implausible, by the way. Mscoree (talk) 14:05, May 5, 2013 (UTC)

'''I started with about 120,000 troops when the base started. Over time the size of the force grew. USSR made a turn saying that they have about 500,000 troops there. When I made the base I said that there were three main belligrents: Turkey. USSR, and EHU forces from countries within the region. The fort was made ten or so maybe more turns, probably around 15.'''

Sealand
Turkey doesn't have any troops on Sealand, we've never docked on Sealand, the navy is simply protecting Sealand by circling it. You wouldn't have enough crew to operate all of these naval vessels. You can't remove a cannon from a naval vessel as well without the ship plans. Also these ships probably have more crew and weapons then your population. And to top this all off, this is all really implausible, and could only happen if ASB, or you had an army that was lead by the cast of The Expendables 2.

You have sailors who dock there after circling. They do have enough sailors. They didn't necessarily remove a naval cannon. They stole six small patrol boats. I don't think that's implausible.

A destroyer isn't a small patrol boat though, and all my boats in the English Channel, and in the North Sea dock in Brighton.

Nothing was said about destroyers. It just so happened that while a Turkish ship was docking to pick up some supplies, rebels attacked the dock seizing six random ships. Mscoree (talk) 22:52, May 5, 2013 (UTC)

Battle Plan/result: In a D-Day style invasion, UR forces suprise Communist forces expecting an attack in Peru, as they go straight after the capitol. Within the first three days the UR is able to capture Santa Cruz Province, Tarija, Potosi, and Chuquisaca (already had military in Santa Cruz as defensive force), then over the next three months, with heavy casulties about 20,000 UR forces - these forces are quickly redeployed as defensive only forces - however communist forces are down to about 100,000 total (50k in Bolivia, 50k in Peru), the UR is able to take over Sucre, Cochobamba, and Oruro. Immediatly UR Air Force drops supplies, and soldiers begin to establish defenses around important cities and the Amazon forest. The UR attempts to adapt and respect the Rights of Mother Earth in the building, but many citizens understand that defensive structures must be put up. Agents still within the communist militants report that the militants are moving into northern Peru and nearly out of Bolivia as a whole).

Battle Plan/Result: UR forces with extreme casulties ie 35,000 are able to kill and defend nearly all the communist forces that were Bolvia, remaining forces have been forced to join with the forces in Peru, and seem to retreat off into Northern Peru hoping to rebuild their numbers (however, due to continued UR funding of political parties in Peru, this will be a difficult and tiresome task) Total communist numbers reside under 60k, while remaining UR ground forces resides at 445k men and women. The UR declares October 29th, a holiday to celebrate the lost lives in this struggle to liberate the Bolvian people. Bolvia is given a path to reconstruct itself under the title the Multinational Republics of Bolvia, and UR officals work on a path to join the UR as a client/vassel state immediatly, and are working toward full membership. Many UR families are glad to see this invasion come to a completed halt, and many soldiers who participated in these conflicts are given medals, many benifits, and a free education if they did not have one. These benifits are made standard and this ends up with 30,000 men joining the ground forces and another 5k joining the navy.

Sequel
So it's 1982.5. 2013.5-1982.5 = 31 years x 2 = 62. There are 62 turns left in the game, that's roughfly two months. Any plans for a Sequel to this or is this it? Violently Calm (talk) 06:40, May 12, 2013 (UTC)

Perhaps. Mscoree (talk) 13:39, May 12, 2013 (UTC)

Turn Cycle
Currently a lot of people are torn between six month versus three month turns. I have decided that since this game takes place in more modern times, in which communication, trade, and war is conducted much quicker than before, it makes more since to have a three month system. Because of the nature of this game I feel it makes more sense. Sorry for any confusion. Mscoree (talk) 20:30, May 12, 2013 (UTC)
