A very well written chapter, with a wonderful cliffhanger.
Very much enjoying the history.
Thanks! Feedback is always appreciated!Count me subbed !
Technologically speaking I was effectively lagging behind a little but as of 1950, both alliances are at parity.I imagine that Russia is somewhat behind the Third Internationale in technology and you need to catch up. I guess, you crushing Germany in 1940 was just a good opportunity.
His Imperial Majesty Vladimir III, By the Grace of God and the Constitution, Emperor of All the Russias.Who is the man next to the flags and the jets in your first post poster?
Relations between Imperial Russia and the United States are indeed good, and yes democracy prevailed. But America isn't going to play a big role on the international stage for at least the next couple of years; the civil war raged from 1937 to 1944 and at the start date of the AAR, the country is only six years out of the most destructive conflict in its history.What is the status of the USA in your world? It survived the second ACW but lost Hawaii and Guam. Is it a democracy or under a junta? Historically, the USA and Tsarist Russia had cordial to good relations before the 1917 Revolution. Perhaps the old friendship could be restored? No version of the USA should have no love for the syndicalists.
I have the outlines of the economic parts, what I'm tinking about is a realistic way to quickly industrialize Russia.Did the Russian government prefer direct economic intervention or a liberalized free market? Find a reputable economist who supported your chosen choice in real life. They do not even have to be Russian. Most Russian economists in real life were communists in the 1950s. As the USSR discovered, a country needs civilian consumer goods for a healthy long term economy. A country does not survive on heavy industry alone. Was Mother Russia's heartland invaded in the Second World War? If not, Russia can achieve economic recovery and success the same way the USA did in real life as the undamaged economic engine of the free world.
Orthodoxy is the state religion but officially cannot play any role in the political system. Officially.Is the new Imperial Russia a secular state or it has Orthodoxy as the state religion?
Very well, very very very well...According to the Kaiserreich subreddit, the Kaiserreich devs still have not decided the fate of Keynes himself yet so you can decide for yourself.
This is also what I understand of the Kadets, though I cannot blame them, most people would change opinions over the course of a civil war.They seem a flexible bunch
Very interesting.
Welcome aboard!Subbed.
Now, ironically, as the scene is set, the curtain went down and the action is going to start.
Thank you!Subbed! I love these kinds of AAR and I'm invested in the story. Can't wait to see what comes next!
As it stand, Russia has 455 IC. To compare, the five big players of the Internationale have: France: 352, UoB: 351, West Germany: 147, Italy: 91 and Spain: 89. Though they have a larger army.AFAIK Russia even without Eastern Europe (but with Transamur, Caucasus and Central Asia) is the most industrialized country in KR universe (over 200 base IC). If player decides to integrate Eastern European puppets and choose industrialization path, he'll get industrial juggernaut capable to takeover whole Europe even without nuclear weapons (huge manpower, IC, resources, one front war).
That's a good summary.The Tsar's words are no longer unquestionable commands but any sensible elected politician should seriously consider the Tsar's requests and attempt to remain on the Tsar's good side.
Not only a risk, almost a certainty. Japan's mainland is left almost intact (I did started a strategic bombing campaing but the resistance proved to be too strong to sustain it) and by 1950, the country is back on track. They're going to be fanatical revanchists and will build monstruous battlewagons (project A-150 anyone?) in order to defeat the Russian Navy and retake Korea. Not that it's a realistic goal to achive but hell isn't it Tojo in power?There is the risk of a two-front war if Japan decides to take revenge in a WW3 situation.
I take it this is what it's regarded inside Russia? As the Second Industrial Revolution in the West was in the late 1800s.
The explosion of the Russian industry in the 1940s was so
important, it was labeled as the Second Industrial Revolution.
A most excellent update there! A real joy to read!
