The End Is Not Yet: MP 900-year game

[unmerged(75409)]

Ah ok, the roaring 20s. Dancing to jazz music while the world prepares for war. Very good.

 

[Edzako]

Hmm, I thought Eastasia controlled the archipelago there. Well, I see Varyar and I have some work to do before we can properly call ourselves Oceania.

*Plots to annex Australia and south Africa*

Fighting never moves beyond the edges of disputed area.

How could you forget that ? Repeat after me:
- Eurasia is protected by its vast land spaces.
- Eastasia is protected by it fecundity, and industriousness of its inhabitants.
- Oceania is protected by the width of the Atlantic and Pacific.

 

[King of Men]

Well yes, but if you check the map, Australia and south Africa are not disputed areas, they are core territories of Oceania. So, I need to annex 'em, otherwise how can War be Peace? Your post doubleplusungood verging crimethink.

 

[Ccbasin]

[Gollevainen]

Yeap

 

[Ccbasin]

Yeap

Thanks Goll. I was just curious.

All Hail the PEC!

 

[King of Men]

The Kingdom and Federation of Yngling Norway, in no particular order:

• Condemns this aggressive treaty,
• Declares an oil embargo against all signatory nations of the Pan-Eurasian Co-Prosperity Pact,
• Offers a hand of friendship to those states most threatened by the expansionist aims of the Pact nations,
• And promises to supply oil to those who are willing to stand against tyranny.

Death to Eastasia!

 

[Gollevainen]

Death to Norway!! All hail the Asian power!! Al hail Roman Com...ah...orhm...PEC!!:wacko:

 

[Sid Meier]

We don't need your oil.

[Herbert West]

Hey, where did Norwegian Scandinavia go?

Italy shares this view.

 

[Edzako]

Hey, where did Norwegian Scandinavia go?

Norway has always been integral part of Eurasia.

 

[ArneHD]

In that deceleration both China and Japan are listed as "Imperial", but both nations are democracies? Is this a gameplay concession or a player oversight?

Proles get to vote, because that gives them false impression of being in control, which, in turn, helps to control such a multinational country. Such superfluous activities will be canceled soon enough.

 

[Enewald]

Wouldn't it be more like Europe and Eurasia?

Btw, hasn't there so far been any coalitions against the Ynglings?
They ought to get demilitarized for a long time to maintain the world peace.

 

[King of Men]

What, you never heard of the First Diaspora? Norway has spent 400 years clawing its way back from that disaster. Then we have the First and Second French wars, the War of the Baltic League, the Breton Reconquest and consequent Second Diaspora, and as late as 1900 the War-In-Sight Crisis.

Though you weren't ever really the target of a coalition in any of those cases. And the odds were not quite the same level as a 5 or 6 v 1.

 

[The_Carbonater]

Indeed, looking over the stats from the last great game, I'm surprised that KoM has managed to attain such a good position despite facing stronger adversaries in this game. Btw, where is the new update on TTL's Ynglinga Saga?
