New Imperialism - AH RP v 1.1 [OOC, Signup]

[Aldelxane]

Caltarania, that's WAY too many militia. First of all, how could you ever transport that many over seas, second of all, that's just an unprecedented number. You aren't modern day China. It's completely unrealistic. That's way too large a force. Please tone down the militia a little bit.

World War 1 may be breaking out with the Orange Coalition (Dutch, Australia, Russia, Siam, Japan) against the Neoists (NSA, CSA, Chicago).

:I

I'm allies with CSA, but you and I are both in Germany's coalition. I may just remain neutral...

Edit: And then there's the fact that we're starting a world war over a colony. That's a bit petty.

Please help us!

I feel like I can't really do anything in this RP. Especially since Somalia has been taken by China...

[The Grand Republic of Hannover]

Which country are you?

The Kingdom of Siam.

Seems like those idiots in the New World think they can bring down the Dutch Republic.

So I guess I'll have to call in all my allies.

And possibly the rest of Europe.

Could people update me on everything else?

EDIT: Also, have you officially declared war yet or no?

It's not really threatening if you're hiding behind others.

But Mexico is invading my northern friend.

Mexico is not officially in the alliance. Therefore, you aren't siding with Mexico. He dodged out of the assault on New Netherland to attack you. Ok, brb in a while, tell me what happens then.

I have not officially declared war yet, I'm just moving my troops so that when I declare war I would easily occupy him. I could call it off to fight the Dutch, but I'm afraid he will stab me in the arse.

So, war. I have almost no army, only 20,000 or so regulars and 30,000 actual reserves. I have no navy by the way, I rely on the homeland navally.

We'll send some cruisers to pick up your dudes.

Bad Idea, if I suddenly wanted to prance to Australia they have little to no army to speak off.

Welp, Charcas is in a dual monarchy with Columbia. I'm siding with the not Dutch!

Caltarania, you have to wait to mobilise your forces. Also, according to your app, you have transports.

So, at this point, are we still using line tactics or have we officially made the switch to trench warfare? I know at the beginning of WWI they were still using 19th century tactics, but this is AH.

Line tactics or be shouted upon by me for meta-gaming.

Sooo, anyone mind filling me in? I've been gone for five days you know.

Well, it's your choice.

The Americans are gathering support with promises of land
The Dutch are gathering support for fucking tulips.
That it.

Caltarania, you're metagaming. The ships are still sitting in the port. You declared war over a non-existent ship.

[Aldelxane]

Just sent out an IC post discussing the evils of letting the Dutch conquer an entire continent. Btw, glad that you intend to remain in the alliance Mexico

[The Miaphysite Church of Coptic Archism]

What's Germany doing? Their actions are pretty important to my survival being maintained.

Hmm. I think I'd rather wait for some other important European nations to join before I do. Until Germany, France, and Austria declare their allegiances, Italy will remain neutral.

[Aldelxane]

Also, let's discuss this:
Do you think a nation of 60 million saying that they recruited and will send 3 million militia to the other side of the world should be allowed ?

[Emilio Aguinaldo]

Axonic, THE GLORIOUS ARMIES OF AUSTRIA-HUNGARY IS MUCH STRONGER THAN THE RUSSIANS! JOIN US AND GET A CHUNK OF RUSSIAN LAND! NOT SATISFIED WITH A CHUNK? I'LL GIVE YOU MY SMALL COLONY IN AFRICA! IF I'M SUCCESSFUL, YOU CAN HAVE A CHUNK OF SOUTH AMERICA!

That's 5% the one thing I've learned is that anything higher than 2% will ruin your economy.

That it a lot of soldiers. Not only would that many put a huge strain on the economy, but it would also leave their territories completely undefended. It would also take a very long time and a great deal of ships to transport them across the world.

Well since they officially not have transports, a huge deal of fighting ships will be used.

Well that's what Caltarania said that they were going to do. Over a colony.

A world war over a colony. JUST GIVE THIS GUY THE FUCKING COLONY!

Which means he would probably have to leave no Navy at New Netherland. Still, ships designed for <500k would never hold millions. Most of them would die en-route.
