World of Conquest (1815 Alt Hist; Open, OOC)

[Arulean States]

I never said that wasn't an option. I'm in favor of an Oceanian-Japanese-Chinese Union. Maybe not full integration, but a European Union style union. I'm merely going over a highly hypothetical situation with Pimps here.

The Japanese have the task of feeding millions of Chinese now, so they should focus on that rather than war.

I will have zero problem feeding the Chinese. You forget, the Chinese were already exporting grain to Japan to deal with the famines, which have ended. China will have plenty of grain (given stockpiles and such) to feed its armies, as it mostly could historically. The only problems are that the western provinces and Korea are rebelling, but that shouldn't be too much of an issue.

Edit: Nevermind, i read the new pages. I'll have a post up sometime tomorrow. Apologizes to Scottish for the wait.

The Chinese had famines every other month of the year.
An if your gonna send your army in large quantity, which is China's greatest, if not only advantage, the people will suffer from the government needing to feed the army.

And yet you don't bring that fact up with Byzantium.

I thought he said he lowered his numbers.
I haven't checked, though.

Yes, from 7 million to 5 million, last I checked. He may have edited his post again.

Pimps, Asrul is a citadel. Its rests in the middle of a river. Not large enough for your warships and rests on a hill. It has three stone rings then on the center is the Tower of the Duchess. And on each level of those 3 levels is big canons. You break one wall and climb over, your under fire from the other two. And the towers is firing canons down on you. The Tower can see everything approaching. And it lies away from the Mississippi River.

But how many men are defending it....
Even then, my frigates and sloops guarding the mouth of the Mississippi are attacking the supply ships attempting to go upriver.

Well I am coop, but I'm pretty sure the OP was somehow fine with the numbers though I will ask.

And Taganian, how can you convince the Sicilians to leave when you begin to insult them?
It's like, "Please get out, don't make us suffer, you fucking Sicilian shits!"
I don't think they'll buy it....

Hrmmmm....I wonder if the Mexicans would say the same thing to Oceanian troops....

Eh. The Captain was more diplomatic than the mayor. These are rednecks.

And Asrul is defended by 12,000+15,000 based in Asrul. Apart of the army Louisiana raied and had not yet sent into action. So 27,000 in total.

Your map is wrong!!!!!! The woods are infront of the Alimini river. Not in the middle. Their is a small groups of them on the other-side. But the Valley of the Duchess is a flat-charge up those hills.

I believe your post says the Eastern shore. Which would be were my map indicates.
Unless I'm wrong, please clarify.

[Taganian Unfied States]

Their a small group running along the shore... not the entire Valley

It's still the right woods, right?

And you didn't really mention the size or exact position so I just marked the general area.

The Amite river, the river that the Alimini is based off of, does indeed have woods on the western bank. It also extends past Port Vincent and heads northward.

The duchesses hills do not exist, I'm sure.

Not under the name Duchesses hills, but there are indeed bluffs around Baton Rouge.

I looked them up, and their nothing like the Duchesses Heights, however.

Can I say I got the forests both sides of the river with fire?

[Taganian Unfied States]

So if we suddenly going on realism *points at 5 million strong Byzantium army* Must I say more?

The Valley and Duchesses heights are out of range from the river. Eastern Baton Rogue is the my greatest range...

And sure, as long as your men are still getting hit with blowing up buildings. But the forest does not extend 15-20 yards deep.

May I see that map or source or whatever?

From pictures, it's like you said, bluffs.
Plenty of thick forests though.
Actually, there's no pics of any hills round there.

Yeah, it's very blurry, I've been there and those chicots are THICK. You can barely see in the summer.

I already said I'll ask the OP.

If the valley and heights are out of range of my guns, so are my ship from yours, with ships being moving targets instead of stationary ones. And it doesn't take much aim to simply hit a forest with flameshot.

And you said the buildings were detonated, thus already causing their damage and killing some of my men. If you mean blowing up buildings due to artillery, then yes. And still, you said you have regulars in those woods, as well as men charging down Laxton. They're as flammable as wood.
