Does Japan still play?

it is been a month after the last post from Keznov

If they decide to attack, I'm screwed. Unless they attack CPC or KMT.

He's appeared now and then, you should TG him to check if you're interested.

Sorry guys, I've had an unbelievably shitty past couple of weeks... I'm going to try to get something up this weekend, but I can make no promises.

[Alleniana]

I really wish we had more active Great Powers...

[Altito Asmoro]

I really wish we had more active Great Powers...

Well....

Yeah, actually. But we now have France, Gran Colombia, Soviet Union, Europa Zentral, United States of America, as the active great powers.

I don't want to switch, I was just wondering, considering it'd be easier for RP reasons if all GPs were accounted for when the war began.

It would be nice to have Japan as a more active participant, especially since all the fighting going on right now is in China.

That was my thinking.

They aren't really active, just sort of. I dunno. CLose enuff.

Caliphate, Great Britain, and Japan are not active as many as possible, however...

And I'm gonna review my progress with Brazil...

[Alleniana]

If my nation gets conquered, do I get to pick a new one?

[Fuurturr]

So am I accepted?

[Alleniana]

So am I accepted?

If they said you are, then you are.

[Fuurturr]

They've not said either way, that's why I asked.

I just saw the response to Mexico, and you had to discuss his backstory for a while, so if you have to do that that's fine.

I for one have a lot of stuff going on IRL, most of us are college students who don't have a whole lot of free time. I think I've been pretty active. And even if I don't post all the time, I've done a lot of research on France during the period, and have pretty well outlined ahead where I'm going. For instance I've drawn up a detailed plan for the invasion of Europa Zentral involving one hundred and twenty-two divisions.

I know, that's why I said that France is active frequently...

[Delsola]

Is the UK still francophile even after the fascists in came to power in France?

This. Its finals time for me. I know most of the major powers outside of NS, and they're all busy too. Like I said, Britain is finishing up his semester and should be back soon. Don't know about Japan, though.

[Delsola]

I think to encourage activity we should fill up open nations.

To do this we should first check by TG if their players are still interested, and if not remove them from the first post. Then, in the reserved post, add a simple timeline of IC events to bring potential applicants up to speed.

I've been busy going back to the navy and such, since it's the only place that substantially differs from history. I was also trying to figure out more of the army structure and the role of named or elite units within it.

What size are your divisions?

What size are your divisions?

Presumably of normal size. Operation Barbarossa had 166 German divisions against 190 Russian divisions.

But what is normal? Volksgrenadiers had somewhat below 10,000 (I think) while there were PLA divisions from the Chinese civil war with 20,000.

There is no standard size because it will depend on type, year, and role. But presumably France's division sizes are comparable to European organizational standards of the time, and thus comparable to neither Volksgrenadiers, who were not regular infantry, or Communist troops in the east, who were similarly organized in a different fashion for a different purpose.

Would around 12,500 be a reason able estimate? Or we could just ask
