Land near the land of 1001 tales

[EvilSanta]

It was a usual sunny morning in Persia in 550 BC and Cyrus the Great was waking up.

Cyrus: What a great day to conquer!

Mysterious Man: Indeed. But what are you doing in my bedroom?

C: Where am I? What time is it? Whats the meaning of life?

MM: You are in the bedroom of Reza Pahlavi, and it is January 6th 1936. I am Shah Reza Pahlavi, the greatest ruler Persia has ever seen!

C: Actually, that calendar over there says it is march 1930. But what am I doing here? Does God exist?

Reza Pahlavi: I swear in name of Allah I was in 1936 just yesterday...

Mysterious Man (not Reza Pahlavi, we know his name now) : You are part of my evil game. You, 2 greatest rulers of Persia, have to quide your nation in world full of wars without allies. If you conquer the world, you shall live to see another day. If not, you are fed to alligators. Now go, Persian kings, and do your best for your nation.

I got to run, I still have to introduce rules to rulers of Confederate States and Mongol Empire.

C: So Reza, it seems like we have a world to conquer.

RP: Hell yeah!

Nice idea for an AAR. I'll be reading.

 

[EvilSanta]

So, this is an AAR played with Yukalas Risk Mod, to be more exact, the beta of new Risk Battle Mod. I am playing with normal/normal difficulty since this mod is enough of an challenge even without handicapping me. I wont update this AAR so often, my Heroes of Belgorod is still more important.

 

[GeneralHannibal]

Good idea for an AAR, I may soon start my own risk Beta AAR.

 

[unmerged(60155)]

cant wait for the first update

 

[unmerged(47162)]

this sure is interesting...can you put a link to the mod?

 

[GeneralHannibal]

this sure is interesting...can you put a link to the mod?

It isn't out yet; EvilSanta, Therev and I are the Beta testers for it.

 

[Snake IV]

The alligators must feed too, .... I mean go conquer those basterds to enemies.

 

[unmerged(18239)]

Most interesting. I would like to see the first installment

 

[stnylan]

The idea of Cyrus in the 20th century is rather amusing.

 

[EvilSanta]

RP: Okey, here is the world map that mysterious man gave us.

C: Is that sort of blue area Persia? Aaaarrgghh, we are so small! My life-long work is undone!

RP: You are saying that area small and undeveloped? You should have seen what I used to rule...

C: Lets see who are our neighbours.

RP: In north-west we seem to have large Ottoman Empire, in north there is Turkmenistan, in the east we have massive India and Afghanistan and to the west across the sea is Saudi-Arabia.

C: Piece of cake, then?

RP: Mmmm...no.

C: I say we send all our Immortals to India! Crush those bastards!

RP: I can see you havent adapted to modern age warfare quite yet. We shall first secure our borders and then crush our enemies one by one.

C: With Immortals?

RP: With Immortals.

C: What is thing called "demanding territory"? Do they really think we give them land?

RP: Well, we should in ord...

C: SHUT UP, you modern sissy! Persia shall surrender to nobody! Immortals, take your swords and invade the world!

RP: Ok, we wont give them land but would you let me do our military plans until you have learned new way of warfare?

C: Who is the founder of Persia and who is the modern silk-underpants sissy?

RP: This is going to be a long day.

Anyway, I think we should buy supplies from Afghans, this way we can use more IC to build infantry and ships.

C: Do whatever you want. I am just a founder of Persia, who cares about what I think?

RP: Persias technologic advance should be concentrated on infantry and airforce. Also I shall develop better doctrines for our troops. We shall produce lots of infantry, some navy and several bomber squadrons. Then...

C: Oh please, would you speak Persian so I could understand too?

Now this is the language I can speak. Wars have begun!

RP: And Saudis just declared war on us...

C: And? Send our elite Immortals there and we are done! Making war is that simple.

RP: A: swords are quite ineffective B: We dont have any Immortals...

C: NO IMMORTALS? What kind of a ruler are you?

RP: Okey, lets call that division Immortals then... anyway, we shouldnt concentrate our forces to Saudi-Arabia because it is just a matter of time before our other neighbours attack.

C: Okey, send your precious navy to intercept Saudi boats and make those flying pieces of junks fall on them.

RP: You are improving, old chap!

C: Let the whole world attack us, Cyrus the Great is here!

RP: Nice going, relic. Now we have a 2-front war.

C: Ehhh...look our navy has won a decisive victory over Saudis!

RP: Ehhh, decisive?

C: I just wanted to make you think about Saudis, not Afghans.

And look. We just won a battle against Afghans. Its all going to be just fine, Rez.

RP: Did you just call me Rez?

C: Im just trying to be hip.

RP: ...

Anyway, we should find a way to stop those Afghan planes. They are devastating our troops!

C: Relax, they will hit the first tower they see.

RP: This isnt 21st century...

C: I think Saudis are a lot more dangerous. Right now they are invading us at Abadan. We have 2 garrisons there against 4 divisions which 2 are elite mountaineers.

RP: How do you know all that? You lived 2500 years ago!

C: Fast learner, Rez, fast learner.

 

[Snake IV]

How big id your navy, and how big is Saudis?

I would like a bigger map.

 

[stnylan]

Yes, a nice regional map would be good.

 

[EvilSanta]

Here you go, world around Persia right now. Provinces are pretty much same than at the beginning, except that Russia devoured 1 nation through demanding territory and is now one hell of a beast in the north.

SnakeIV :All countries start with same amount of ships at the start except Pacific Fire that has twice the amount others have.

Rest of you : Thanks, I hope you liked the first update.

 

[unmerged(60155)]

Cyrus sure has got a lot to learn... but its a good thing hes a fast learner!

 

[unmerged(47162)]

those backstabbing afgans! first they agree to trade and then they dow!

 

[unmerged(44784)]

Looks like India might be a problem if they decide to go after you.

 

[GeneralHannibal]

You should probably go after the Afghans first since the Saudis have to cross by sea, and therefore can't fight as well. The afghans on the other hand...

 

[EvilSanta]

RP: I feel it is time to go for an offensive against Afghans.

C: Onwards, my Immortals! Women and gold await you in Afghanistan!

RP: Too bad Afghans dont have any gold and their women make me look good.

C: They must be really ugly. No wonder why Afghan men are so willing to go warring.

RP: By the way, Indians just entered the scene. They just declared war on...

C: I swear, I have nothing to do with this!

RP: Yeah right...I was just about to say they attacked Afghanistan.

C: Afghans are dead, aye?

RP: Aye?

C: I just cant help it, Scots are damn cool.

RP: Uhh...anyway, we should try to find a way to defeat Saudi and Afghan planes. They are killing our industries and troops!

C: Industry? What is it?

RP: It is a place that makes Immortals.

C: Then we have to kill Saudi and Afghan planes! Nobody kills my Immortals!

RP:*whispering* I knew that one would work!

C: What you said?

RP: Nothing! By the way, our tan... Immortals in armoured chariots are under attack by few Afghan divisions.

C: Whose idea was to give chariots to Immortals? Anyway, they shall be victorius!

RP: Yeah, they would have been victorius but Afghan bombers ruined our day once again. We have to find a way to deal with them.

C: Give the task to my Immortals and job is done!

RP: Ok, we shall train few Immortals to fly planes...

C: Good idea. By the way, Ottomans just declared war on...

RP: I know nothing about it!

C: I can see that...they just attacked Saudis. So Saudis have 3 fronts to take care of and Afghans have 2. Things arent as bad as they could be.

RP: Never say "things could be worse"! It is asking for problems!

 

[GeneralHannibal]

How much IC do you have?
