It's not necessarily present day EU, nor any EU in any reality we are acquainted with (just yet).

It probably would be the present day EU, how else would it form?

*shrug*
Maybe it's the EU of OTL, except in 2100, or maybe it's in some alternate reality where the Cold War went hot but nukes somehow (somehooooow) stayed out of it.

It's not like we're not experts at bullshitting realities out of thin air here, is it?

Also, last post on this page:

Soz for doublepost, but it was necessary.

Let me guess, someone stole your sweet blaze roll?

It was you, wan'it?

*lumbers off into distance, towards bed*
Goodnight. No fake goodnights tonight, though.

Don't let the frostbite bite. (kudos tomorrow for reference getters)

There is actually a video on the AlternateHistoryHub whereby nukes were never invented, so mabe.

FSA? Federal States of America? Or something completely unrelated? Huh. My interest is piqued. Here's my map that I made for something..

Map

If it's a nuke map then why the fuck was fucking Dover and Essex nuked but Leeds, Birmingham and Glasgow weren't?

Location of mega-cities. Outside of them is up to the players with their own unique factions ranging from warlords and ragtag armies to republics or whatever. However, technology is controlled by the mega-cities due to a long-ago cataclysm.

Annoyed that there is no faction in Yorkshire or even Northern England or even Northern UK.

It's not a nuke map but it is a mega-city map. I think if you wanted a Northern England faction than that would be player made.

Kakletron?

Why is it that all these good RP's are coming around right when school starts???

What the hell is everyone talking about?

My school ends in a week, for a 3-week break.

Anyway, new RP?
I will put out the following ideas:
1870 RP reboot

Crazy AH RP (search it up)

@Svelt, MiM again? :3

I want to be the Great Pink Genovese Republic

[Bujahla]

I'm kind of interested in a RP where people RP a European state and a political party within a "United States of Europe" and it'd focus on the interplay of politics within a USE/EFU and how that'd play out.

Civil war most likely.

And Calt won't be allowed in the RP due to his anti-federal EU stance xD

[Caltarania]

Well, how would you like it if - without your consent - the United States began to be run from Beijing in a Sino-American super-state?

I actually don't mind china and fall into the 35% that like it.
But I suppose I rather not be run from it, but I have some cool flags for it.

Let me just say, how much flags do you even have? You must have more than Krebs has maps.

My flag folder has 825 files in it. So yeah. More than that.

Anyone have an AH planned in the works?

Maybe an 1111 AH. Premade map though.

Premade works for me.

[Lingang]

Hey, I have an idea/series of maps I want to share. It involves (very) alternate history/world building. It's just suggestion, if anyone wants to hear?....

Man, I haven't RP'ed on here for so long...

Debatable but I had to post something so.

I have a facist style flag of Babylon...not that I would use it.

Medieval AH, eh?
Allen! Allen! AMAAQ!

[The Kingdom of Glitter]

A premade AH RP set in the Middle Ages could be fun, specifically during the Reformation or the Enlightenment.

An alternate Reformation could be interesting.

For example, Martin Luther gets a French or Spanish name and France or Spain flips to Protestantism and the English, Germans, and Scandinavians remain staunch Catholics.

Combine that with a different Enlightenment and there's a pretty decent back story for an AH RP, at least I'd say that's something.

I'd be willing to give that a go.

I've had a thought in my mind for a while, essentially Afroeurasia was devastated by a plague that hit the new world centuries prior, so around RL year 1500 only 5% of the Old World population of OTL existed, and the New World population grew much larger, by 1500 the new world hit their year 0, and essentially in this RP the devastated Old World serves as a ground for a new age of exploration, where American nations (which by this point have developed to OTL Old World levels) become colonial powers and begin the settlement of AfroEurAsia, Oceania/Pacifica would serve as this TL's 'Africa' in that it wouldn't be accessible to colonial powers until much later due to a larger and stronger native population.

The American nations would spawn out of current tribes, but obviously after another millennium and a half of development they would be very much different. I want to get a 'Christian' analogue in, with several key nations under a common religious umbrella, and a 'Catholic' analogue with some of the major powers answering to a common religious figure like a Pope.

The interesting aspect would be that colonialism would spring off both the east and west coasts, crossing both the atlantic and pacific.



Thoughts?

Seems interesting, but it's analogue, not dialogue. Dialogue is talking.

[Rephesus]

At this point it could be anadiamanalogue, my brain is fried.

LOVE IT! So what year would this be going down in?

[Rephesus]

Well OTL would be like the year 3000 almost, but before you freak out that's because the POD is very early and it takes another 1500 years for the Americas to naturally develop to surpass OTL 1500s Colonial nations, plus it gives time for Afroeurasian civilization to reemerge enough to allow hunter gatherer tribes and such.

Anyway, on this RP's timescale it would be like their 1300-1700s (Assuming 0 was OTL around 1500)

So we have the Native Americans of the Americas evolving to where they have the same tech as 1500's Europe...awesome!
