The Year is 1965, the world now sits on a ever changing table has enemies use espionage and sabotage to undermine each others interests. Proxy wars wage on as Superpowers use their neighbors against each other in this never ending struggle for more power. This is the Cold War ladies and gentlemen! Of course, this isn't the cold war we all have learned about and grown up in. This roleplay will be focused on a player created world, where sides are just now beginning to formulate. As well, I'd like to note that this is alternate history, no nation should be a copy of itself and if anything there should be some major or at the very least notable differences.
Staff
OP Kisinger
The Rules of the roleplay are not meant to be complex but as simple as possible with detailed explanations. If you have any problems address them to a Co-OP or the OP.
There are some very basic commandments that are and always will be in place in any of my roleplays.
1.) Thou shalt always listen to thy OPs
2.) Thou shalt not break any forum rule
3.) Thou shalt not meta game, or power game
4.) Thou shalt not interact with a NPC without OP consent
5.) Thou shalt not argue with any OP without due cause
6.) Thou shalt use proper Grammar and spelling
7.) Thou shalt not use one liners and have a minimum of 2 paragraphs per post
8.) Thou shalt always date thou's posts
9.) Thou shalt not be an ass
10.) Thou shalt follow these as they are next to God's words
Realism
Realism is a central part of any quality roleplay and most be upheld to the utmost standards. These standards are usually defined by not making choices that are considered ASB, or "So unrealistic only Alien Space Bats could of made it work." With that being said, it is still Alternate History and by definition fiction, so if you believe you have a plausible realistic idea, don't be afraid to put it forward, however, it will be criticized to the utmost possibility to make it truly believable. Please do note that realism applies to every aspect of roleplay, so be wary because the OP or Co-OP may declare your choices void if it is considered to be unrealistic by either the OP or Co-OP board.
"Life is stranger than Fiction"
History
History plays a very important role in this roleplay because it is Alternate History so please avoid copying existing nations and pasting them into your app, not only will your app be ignored, continued posting of said thing will lead to a removement of you from the roleplay. With this section I'd also like to list events that happened without a doubt to set a timeline for you all.
- 1945 A.D. World War Two Ends
- 1950 A.D. Korean War Begins
- 1953 A.D. Ceasefire is signed bringing the Korean War to a temporary close
- 1961 A.D. The European Federation is Formed with France, Benelux, West Germany, Spain, Portugal, and Italy
Diplomacy
Diplomacy is a key part to the Cold War, so it will be one of the most watched events within the roleplay. With that said please do make realistic choices, that's all I ask. In fact I demand that you do. Note: Any Conferences that are concluded will need to be made in a separate thread by the Admin Team please send a telegram so we can set one up and link it in the OP.
Warfare
Warfare is to be deiced inbetween players how the war or a certain battle should play out, if either cannot come to an agreement the OP Board shall make a declaration of who will win. So we highly advise you to talk it out before we have to get involved into.
Technology
Understanding the limitations of your nation's technology is important. Make sure that you play according to that technology. This is 1950, so if you are Iraq or any nation outside a Great or Superpower you will not have Nuclear technology without acquiring it in a variety of means. As well as remember if you don't have something you can usually buy it from another nation unless it's a highly guarded secret or the OP Board finds it highly unrealistic to be sold to other nations.
Staff
The Staff of the roleplay will be hand picked by the OP. However, if you feel you can make a major contribution to the roleplay then telegram Kisinger..
Applications and Reservations
I am allowing reservations but remember if someone makes an application first, and you have not made one within 24 hours, he will get accepted, and do note reservations last only 12 hours.
Applications are not going to be so demanding as so you build a nation and don't feel like playing it so make it simple but as well as don't just put out cap at least put forth some effort.
Events
There will be random, Codeword is events, events so watch your back and be sure not to piss of the OP
Time
There is no set pace for time. Things will happen and the OP Board shall decide what time it is by how many posts and what kind of posts are occurring.
