Plague outbreak in the UK, quarantining of the UK, Germany trying to firebomb London and failing, badly, and general purges going on in London of all the sick thanks to German troops landing in London to try to deal with the plague.

It is hard to make a 92% lethal plague more chaotic. Especially when the entire source of it has been placed under guard from the navies of everyone who could send ships to help (US, Germany, France, etc.)

True the Napalm Rockets had too few explosions. Granted any German or British ship exploding could trigger a war... I shouldn't have said that should I?Celivaia wrote:"Today is a great day.

So let us begin, I will mostly be going for major and important nations for their reactions.
1-2-9-10-5-4-8-8-6
1: The British take this very poorly of course. The Royal Navy is getting trigger itchy too.
2: Reactions across the British Commonwealth is scarcely better. The Royal Canadian Navy has taken to the sea and has joined up with the Royal Navy while the Royal Australian and the Royal New Zealand Navies have been put on alert. Anti-German protests are going on in Australia, New Zealand, and Canada.
9: China has mostly nodded along stating "they understand civilian casualties were an unavoidable event in the course of things and that they will stand by Germany and her decision"
10: On the home front the German people fail to understand why people are complaining and reiterates their belief that this course is correct. The home front is united in belief that they are saving the UK. The German Government has stated that they are behind General Strasse.
5: The United States has condemned the action but aren't taking much action beyond that. They are trying to closely watch what is going on thanks to satellites and their images.
4: Russia has reacted poorly to this and has ordered an increase of their immediate war surplus by putting in more orders to their industry.
8: Japan has not reacted at all though the commoners seem to approve of the action for the sake of stopping it.
8: Not much reaction out of India either besides some grumbling approval out of Anglo-phobic people.
6: While South Africa has not issued a opinion on it plenty of people are unhappy about it but has resorted to grumbling.

To sum it up, I'm not entirely happy with how the dice rolls are set up. There doesn't seem to be any guidelines and the plot is advancing very haphazardly.

I simply rolled and the higher the roll the more meh or supportive they were. Britain and the Commonwealth would not have taken kindly to it so they were naturally supposed to have a low score. As for the others I rolled and then based how they would behave after a combination of history and guessing how they would react in a this scenario if it did occur. Plus people tell me I am normally good at politics this way if I have enough knowledge of history and current affairs.

"10: they immediately surrendered to the Germans"
No that isn't what I rolled.
5: France has condemned the attack but the people are divided because half the population thinks that this plague needs to be stopped no matter what the cost while others think that it is far too brutal.

To sum it up, I'm not entirely happy with how the dice rolls are set up. There doesn't seem to be any guidelines and the plot is advancing very haphazardly.How Follower increase is carried out
- Until a certain threshold is reached (to be decided on later) every number on the dice represents a variable of 10%
- Any number that winds up as a decimal will be rounded to the nearest whole number
- In a play that requires multiple dice rolls a 10 on the dice gives you a percentage bonus of 10% (unless it is the final roll in said series, then no increase)
- In a play that requires multiple dice rolls a 1 represents a reduction of 5% (unless it is the final roll in said series, then no reduction)
- Under Rules 3 and 4 the percent of follower increase cannot exceed 100% (excluding something like a special bonus which does not figure into it) nor can it be lower than 5% (penalty beyond this can still be applied and does not figure into it). So no 110% or 0% or anything like that.
- If you receive a 10 on the dice you will get an added bonus to whatever it is your doing, be it money, a few more followers, being able to do the event again or something similar without needing to do rolls for it again, etc. If you receive a 1 however you receive the opposite because something terrible has happened.
- All rolls are to be handled by myself and Coops

9 - With both of them combined, you manage to convert a total of 135 followers
8 - the nameless soldier does very well at converting low ranks (128 low ranked soldiers to be precise)
6 - Farrah does fairly well at converting officers (since officers I would think would be like artists and such, out of the 135, you manage to convert 7 officers)
