All, right, as requested. The Norwegian front in the latest save:
And here's why I think it's not going anywhere fast:

So, Blayne, are your parents dragging you off to arcane tortures tomorrow, or will you be able to play at the usual time? Also, have you installed radio-controlled clamps on Dano's balls, so that you'll be able to get him out of bed by remote control? And if not, why the hell not?
Can we possiply end tomorrow bit earlier, around 20:30 finnish time. There is Monthy Python's Holy Grail coming from TV, and hate to miss my favorite movie......
....And before you ever think of saying, Im not going to just DL it from some net, Im a firm believer of TV, VHS and Vinyls

Well, if we can manage to get started at the nominal time, I don't object to knocking off a little early. If I have my timezones correct, 2030 Finnish time is 1030 my time, so that's only half an hour before our nominal ending time. But for the love of dog, let's try to start at 0700 my time, eh?
You guys have to play this to the end!!
This is the most exciting AAR on the whole forum.
I can't wait to hear how the story of the Ynglings ends... will they achieve the final triumph over their foes, or will there be a great reckoning for almost 1000 years of trampling the peoples of the world?
And Belgium... haven't heard much from them, story-wise. Just as a side question, what kind of government does Belgium (ex Burgundy) have? The last thing I remember is that they were sort of democratic.
Oh and as for China... I would love to see screenies of their multi dozen militia stacks fighting the Norwegian panzer armies in Siberia. China is Stalinist, right?
What is England's involvement in the current carnage? Are they neutral? They've been AI controlled for some time, right? What government do they have?
Do you have screenshots that show Asia? Who owns Australia, Indonesia, Africa? IIRC they are just side theatres, what with all the IC and resources being so concentrated in Europe, but has the war touched these areas yet?
Oh and best of luck to you all for the game

Well as we know know I am personally seeing to it that Daniel is up to play because today I am going with radek to Daniels home and I am going to ensure he does what hes obligated to do.
Crush Norway.
*nods*
Radek I think will be England as before.
I'll post some screenies.

Map of Europe at this time.
Map of North America
South America, england has unfortunately taken some provs before we could.
Map of Asia, as you can see I'm pushing KoM back into the permafrost regions.
Militia pictures.
England is occupying all of Norwegian North America and Africa, and dealing with the consequences. Both they and Belgium are reasonably democratic, IIRC. Australia is, I think, English, but honestly it's been years of game time since I looked at that corner of the world. For all I know the space lizards have invaded it. And yes, China is a brutal Stalinist dictatorship, quite as nasty in their own lovable way as the Ynglings, although without the racial overtones. Although mind you, the Ynglings may talk a good game about their bloodline descent from King Olaf of Norway, but by this point there have been so many extensions of the privilege for reasons of "otherwise the empire would collapse in multiple civil wars" that the elite, at least, recognises it for the propaganda it is. It's not impossible that the Yngling caste could be extended to, say, "all white Europeans living in the Empire before 1940" or some similar subset. It depends a bit on how the war goes, to be sure. But honestly, at this point I'd be just as happy to see the Ynglings go down in flames, just because it would be such a cool AAR to write! I'll fight my best to avoid it, though.
The People's Republic of China is a constituent Republic of the Universal People's Republic, of which The Socialist Republic of Vietnam, the Soviet Socialist Republic of Laos, Kampuchea, the Democratic People's Republic of Korea, the Socialist Republic of Mongolia, the Republic of Nepal, the Socialist Republic of Pakistan, the Soviet Socialist Republic of Kazakstan are all equal members, although China is the leading constituent Republic due to a combination of constitutional institutionalization and proportional representation in the Supreme Soviet.
And the Republic of Persia is an observer member but are a full member of the Comintern.

Wow! That sure is a lot of militia divisions.
Have any of you used your nukes lately?
And are there any important resources in the Americas or in Australia? It seems like all the action and all the prize provinces are in Europe and the middle east.

Look like Belgium is doomed.
Will the commies or will the fascists win?
Quite a gloomy future this world is in.

About half the world's oil production is in Texas, which makes it of fantastic importance strategically, and I'd be a lot happier if I had it back. Otherwise, I think everybody (except maybe the various minors) are well supplied with everything.
Ynglings are nasty, but they're not fascists, as such; there's no State ideology. They're more of an aristocratic republic with a strong ethnic component to who is allowed into the aristocracy. Rome or the Greek republics, not Italy or Germany.

I see the Caribbean islands colonised during the reign of Absolut still is under Belgian control.

I remember the burning of London. I heard a different description about the Ynglings back then...
hahahAbsolut said:I see the Caribbean islands colonised during the reign of Absolut still is under Belgian control.
Meh. The sack of London was a mere scrape on the knee compared to what the Chinese did to it. What's a little rape and looting between friends? Just a large-scale Viking raid, really. The Chinese, on the other hand, nuked the place. That aside, what 'different description' are you referring to?
After some thought, I've come to the conclusion that I'm prepared to offer terms to the Belgian government which, although harsh, stop short of complete annexation. They are as follows:
You will note that this leaves Belgium in possession of much of its industrial territory. Further, if this is accepted within a month or so, those units over by the Don won't be destroyed. However, there is a time limit to this offer. If Belgium accepts peace after January 15th, 1950, the following additional clause will be required:
After February 1st, 1950:
After March 1st, 1950:
After that, I expect the point to be sort of moot, as I'll be driving into Spanish-held France.
- Europe east of the Adriatic, including a line drawn from Venice up to Norwegian Germany, to be given to Norway and Poland for sharing.
- Belgium to join the Axis.
- Belgium to cease all trade with Comintern and Allied nations.

All right if I add "What's a little rape and looting between friends? Just a large-scale Viking raid, really." to my signature?
