Schmetternde Schwerter (CLOSED, OOC)

[Murovanka]

On that note, would you mind if I captured the Cottbus salient (most SL troops will withdraw though, instead of captured)?

[Organized States]

So, in my next post, I'm imagining the first forward elements of the 7th Cav Division will arrive and begin to engage the Wankans (not too sure where), and this'll be followed by a major SL push somewhere (with the Wankans starting to have to fall back due to the large amounts of well-equipped, fresh Columbian troops). This good with everyone?

I think the OS Army's RP delay as been exploited as fully as possible at this point...

Perhaps the OS Army would take Hessen over the Sylvans?

Nah, man, your a bit late. The Fourth Division is gonna take the glory for that, sorry. However, I would like to work with you again - perhaps in this new Valencia RP, we can team up? Hopefully then you actually start posting consistently, lol.

Also, Wanka, that sounds great. That way both sides can sort of claim victory, but at the same time not really. I assume at the end of this, Sonneborn is still in power, and this becomes the (continuation) of a NAZI-SL Cold War? Or are you going to have Kanaris and Meinhof make a move? Idc either way.

Though the addition of Reicha and Helmarra to Sep gives you some new allies, and a new location for a possible future confrontation.

Also, as for our next RPs, here's what I've got -

The Place That God Forgot - Valencian government collapses after a massive natural disaster, paving the way for foreign intervention to become foreign occupation of the oil-rich island.

For God And Country - Not to sure yet. Something to do with the United Territories, and Wanka finalizing its stranglehold on Sylva. This might perhaps lead into another RP in which, eventually, NAZI invade Sylva proper.

Armaggedons Edge - The Pan-Septentrion War, in which Sylva attempts to conquer the world (past tech, 1950s or 1970s) before OS drops the worlds first nuke on my capital and Sylva surrenders, breaking apart it's empire. We could also start at the end of the war and RP the breakup of my empire.

Fair enough and I think that it would make sense, considering that it's taken two weeks for me to move a significant enough force. Valencia seems like something I may be able to do. It'll be a more Naval-centric RP and I could probably work better on that.

[Murovanka]

Okay, great. Gonna have two weeks break starting next week so we can wrap this up.

On ze programm:
1. Battle for Dresden (lasts for a coupla IC weeks)
2. Battle and capture of Hessen
3. Ceasefire and handover of Saxony to Aemen

The finer details are up to us to decide. Haven't decided whether to return Wanka to Sonneborn or Meinhof control. Either would be interesting. But we'll see.

[Nova Sylva]

You know, what we could do...

What if we never make peace, but only agree to a cease-fire? Then OS could have time to move in forces, and we can consolidate our lines and try for round two.

That'd certainly make things interesting.

[Erquin]

North Koreer and South Koreer. I luv it.

[Murovanka]

And get locked into a cold war. Hell, that would be interesting. Fighting with proxies and trying to undermine each others power.

Okay, so Meinhof and Kanaris will stay officially gone for now.

Well, not "gone." It's likely the Sylvans are probably going to start clandestinely supporting him and his movement. And exactly - Saxony is the start of the Cold War, which builds up to round two (possibly).

And yes, there will be many proxy wars, lots of espionage, and bloc-building. Perhaps we start a thread just about the Cold War? We could update it irregularly and just have it branch into other threads and vice versa.

Sorry for my lack of posts, Ive been trying to spend more time with the family and not so much time staring at NS throughout the day. I'll work on a response to OS soon.

Sounds good though I stand by my original idea...the threads timeline is so jacked up, you really should have had a different thread. Also, Achesia should join NAZI. Or absorb NAZI into an alliance you create.

I already have too many threads to watch.

Well, that doesn't change my suggestion about the alliance.

[Erquin]

Would it be a good idea to leave the NAZI alliance after the Saxon war?

No, not really. Well, unless you wanted to join the SL.

Also, found the Questerian plans to attack Sylva while skimming around iiwiki. Oh, Maredoratica.

[Erquin]

Tbh, I do wanna ally with Sylva and fight with you.

DU VERRÄTER!1!1!!11

I've a feeling that me and TBR need to launch an intervention to save Erquin from falling to Sylvan imperialist scum...

---

Yay another RP idea. Perhaps the first Sylvan-Nazi conflict in the Cold War?
Relations between Wanka and Erquin are already not that good, and after the perceived loss in the Saxon war Erquinians want to be closer to Sylva. Some popular demonstrations happen, president resigns and elections are called for which threaten to give some pro-Sylvan faction power.

Happens April 2016, maybe running concurrently with the Meridian War which some of us aren't directly involved in? UT is coerced into joining NAZI, and from there Wankan and TBR troops stage an invasion to reinstate the pro-Wankan government (like the Prague Spring or Hungarian Uprising --> paying attention in history class paying off).

It'll be like a hybrid war, I guess, not a conventional one. The Erquinian military may be split into pro-Wankan/pro-Sylvan or choose not to fight; partisan activity and guerrilla warfare by civilians will be key; Sylva may covertly (or not) send in support. Anything goes, but its up to Erquin whether this goes or not.

If you (Erquin) want to switch sides without all the civvy deaths then that's not a problem either.

[Erquin]

This could work. Lets hear Sylva on this.

[Nova Sylva]

It needs some more figuring out but the basic idea is there. I'm all for it.

[Nova Sylva]

Also, I'm going to write one more reply before Muro and/or Aemen closes the thread, if that's okay with everyone. Dresden is going to become the equivalent of Stalingrad (yes, including the envelopement. The only difference being that the Wankans will break out).

[Murovanka]

Already? The war will come to an end but do give me a chance to reply a coupla times; after all, Stalingrad did last for like half a year. I need to, want to highlight the massive casualties incurred at Dresden, or else it's hard to explain why we're willing to accept a ceasefire. Also, civvy deaths

So go ahead for the first week or so, then I'll do the second week and you can do the successful Sylvan advances or whatever happens and the conference occurs.

I'd like to include a peace conference arbitrated by Aemen, in the form of Sonneborn, De La Calle and some Aemen official in Erus or any other city in Aemen. Others have done it via TG or a chat, how about we open another thread where we post about the discussion ICly and then upload the entire thing in one post here?
