What happened?
The Cold War is raging with the U.S.S.R and U.S.A going at it. With the loss of Vietnam to Communism, and deteriorating relations, what will happen in our new world? With new countries rising, and others falling. To the numerous coups, and different decisions that were made. It is up to you to chose what happened during these vital years, and how it shaped your nation. And yes, it is 1983.

Rules:
What is going to be different from your 1992 RP?:
Well this time, I think one of our main problems was me ending the USSR, leaving only the west as major powers and even though many nations grew, they would have probably ended up in a North Korea situation, with little support as their biggest has left. So with this RP, we are going to start in 1983, and allow for the Cold War to still rage on, to give it a more "Nuclear Threat Imminent fill".
Godmodding:
No Godmodding, Period.
I think the Cold-War is great, but maybe this would've been better in 1945?:
Well, I thought about that too, but most of that period would just be us rebuilding every nation in Europe, releasing 75% of the earth into their own states, waiting at-least 10 years to get stable enough to actually do everything else. And that is time-consuming, and just having it in the 80's is a good point.
Point of No-Return
Everything up to the end of WW2 happened, which was in 1945. Everything up to 1945 happened, but whatever happened after that can be altered to your liking. The only thing that didn't happen is the United Nations being created. This is done to save going through the hassel of doing that, and the fact of with a United Nations, it might have gotten destroyed considering what all we might put down on our apps. If you wish to revive it, just make it ICLY.
Nuclear Warfare:
Nuclear Weapons usage are going to be a strict part of this RP as Fallout is not something nice and there are rules on how to properly use them and try and not be so-..ugh about it. Let us say two countries go to war, I don't want the two countries to as soon as they get into conflict, launch a nuclear missile at someone. If you are expecting to do that, this is not your RP. Now I will allow nuclear weapons to fly at times, but be aware of range and the possibility of it not making it to the target. Use it as sorta a "Last-Resort tactic". All Nuclear strikes must be pre-approved by me and made with legit reasons, even if you are bluffing the use just to get what you want.
Timescale:
Every page, equals three months in the IC. This is to keep the RP flowing, and provides for laws and such to be drafted and put into effect. You are REQUIRED, to date the MONTH AND YEAR of your actions, so we can keep track of time.
Historical Accuracy:
What does this mean? We are following historical context for now, but when the RP starts we will most certainly deviate.
Waging War:
Any conflict that is started must be waged reasonably and realistically. Also be aware of the terrian you are invading as that is a determining factor in battles. Troop mobilization on a nationwide scale takes time as well, at the very least two weeks for the most advanced nations just in the home region. And so, when you are about to invade and a page ends, you are to just postpone your invasion and say in the IC their were (Fuel shortages, increased preparation, ect), to make up for your loss. This also means the opposing team will not be able to see your units, until this time, if they are even spying on you. If you have any questions about this, let me know.
Technology:
Understanding the limitations of your nation's technology is important. There are limitations for most countries as they are not as advanced as the Russian's or Americans or any real nation at that power. If you would like to engage in research, you are free to start new projects, but be aware they make take a second to get done.
Know How to Lose:
If you lose, say good game and go on. You can request to play as a revolutionary with new goals in the country you lost power in if you wish, just be realistic and don't go out there doing superman style politics/warfare.
Meta-Gaming:
What is meta-gaming? If something is talked about in OOC, for example a invasion plan for Afghanistan. I don't want someone going in there and placing troops in the way of the plan just from what they read in OOC.
Post Quality:
All post will at least need to be two paragraphs long, with 8 sentences per paragraph minimum. If you do not meet this standard, do not apply. Here is some examples of post we like: viewtopic.php?f=31&t=293610&p=19831873#p19831873 which as you will see, it can be really long or the way the Afghanistan post is, either way both are accepted.
