1840 RP, (open, OOC thread)

[Epraria]

I plan to:
A. Conquer everything
B. Win

Seems like a simple plan, dunnit?
But really, my goal will be to grab as much of everything as I can without getting destroyed. Carribean looks like a nice place tho start doing that.

Just leave the Spanish holdings there so that I can have a spanish-American war right?

I'm sorry, that's impossible. I am starting Britain-Everyone war.

Be realistic now Britain would lose horribly if they declared war on everyone.

Not literally, but essentially, that's what I'm doing. Trying to be uber expansionist and militaric.

So you will even declare war on the U.S.A?

To fight on so many fronts would certainly weaken and spread out your armies weakening your defensive line and lowing the ability to contain revolts and major protests, which could cause you to loose major sources of money and supplies such as India, Pakistan, and if you aren't prepared for the Zulu wars than South Africa. Also, invading industrial giants such as the Prussians, the Austro-Hungarians, and the Russians, along with the civil-war experienced United States would be a war that would have many losses, but of course the British Empire was pretty much the rest of the advanced world at that time, so in conclusion, that war would be against the odds for the British (Though they had won quite a few of those by now) and would at least temporarily damage their land, infrastructure and (of course) military numbers. BUT, If you meant you would divide and conquer the world bit by bit they could have a chance at getting close to reaching the highest peak of global domination. Of course, the rp will probably end before you have the chance to conquer Russia or all of Asia (probably a few smaller nations [in comparison to the British Empire] will survive British invasion.

[Jamessonia]

Haha1!1!1!1!1! Prussia is 2 kool 2 get pwned!

[Krjder]

As Japan I'll be annexing Korea and Manchuria. Then the rest of East Asia

[Epraria]

America will get Mexico and Cuba. No matter what the Brits do.

Good luck, with major European powers wanting to do this too, you will need to industrialize and adopt imperialism quickly and be very eager to adapt to western technologies. You will have the Portuguese, the French, the Dutch, the British, the Spanish, the Ming, the Koreans, the Vietnamese(and all smaller Indochinese ethnic groups) (Alt history), and perhaps even the Prussians to compete with, an alliance and the opening of your markets to a few of them will be the key to your rise to success, though that is my opinion.

Should be easy, after defeating the Mexicans in the past and a few civil wars (in Mexico) later they will be just as unready for war as lat time, if not more. Cuba will be simple, just do what America did in real life and make them another state to give them enough local Autonomy to want to stay in the US. I also recommend taking the Philippines from Spain too and turning it into an Autonomous territory (Like Pueter Rico). Then you can create the Banana Republic (Latin and northern South American US puppet states) by funding democratic revolutions in the countries or simply annexing them and making them autonomous territories.

That is all in my plans if all doesn't go on a conquest rampage of course.

[Divided America]

Can you put Rome in there?

[Jamessonia]

When will the OOC be created?

I am aware. But by 1880 Japan has that. I'll ally myself with Prussia

[Jamessonia]

If the game starts in 1880, Germany would have been created 9 years ago.

[Krjder]

D'oh, just remembered. Well, Prussia was the dominant state within

[Epraria]

Well guys let's hope the Brits doesn't post much.

[Krjder]

If he gets too big, Germany and France should crush him

[Jamessonia]

If he gets too big, Germany and France should crush him

I doubt the French would ally with Germany easily, the annexation of Alsace and Lorraine will be fresh in their memories...

[Divided America]

Is Italy avalible?

[Epraria]

Is Italy avalible?

I would guess.

[Krjder]

Yup

[Divided America]

Thank you i usually have to put my writing as big letters :3

[Epraria]

Would the US still have lots of veterans from the ACW?
