Think of the endless cruelties visited by the inhabitants of one corner of this pixel on the scarcely distinguishable inhabitants of some other corner, how frequent their misunderstandings, how eager they are to kill one another, how fervent their hatreds.- Carl Sagan

Don't we already have one? Anyway, as I never use IRC I'd probably be against this. It was the same with the forum- there's no need when we can just discuss things here quite easily.

IRC makes it vastly easier to plan and co-ordinate RPs in my opinion, as well as offering opportunities to 'bro' with fellow RPers.

I retain the opinion that it is just another thing I have to check every day when I could get away with just checking NS.

I think there's an Austro-Venetian peace treaty in place. I remember creating it when I was Venice.

I feel I should point out that Dalmatia was Venetian before Hungary even existed, and that it regained these territories after Austria, then in control of Hungary, stole them from Venice. So you can't really claim any sort of moral high ground here.

Dalmatia yes Croatia(the Croatian land peninsula or corridor of sorts.) and Istria no there is a distinct difference. If it stays peaceful then i intend to leave Venice with Dalmatia, however if it leads to war and i am Victorian i intend on taking Dalmatia also. However after reviewing several maps i see your point, lets just see how things play out for now.

A present for China and France!

http://www.mediafire.com/?lo5w99na5jwa81d

There's also images I already uploaded for the Netherlands, US and Japan in here.

A note for China. Pictures without dates are from the Taiping Rebellion period. I included pictures from both the late Ming era and the Qing for more modern uniforms, as well as a couple from the Chinese Civil War.

And now to get some pics for Sweden and Prussia. Away.

Generally, you're safe downloading anything in .rar/.zip format. You can inspect the contents first. In this case, if you check the inside of the file, you'll see there's nothing but .pngs, which can't carry viruses.

Unfortunately, do not exist.
However, look up the HUngarian Revolution of 1848

http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/c ... s_1849.png

The guys in the foreground look like Hussars of some sort, the ones in the background on the right look like officers. I imagine your uniforms for infantry would be similar to them (red jacket, blue trousers).

You might have to use a template to make the uniforms in MSpaint, use a template or ask somebody in this thread if they'll do it for you:
viewtopic.php?f=23&t=67795

Generally speaking, European armies tended to, when they updated their uniforms, go for whoever was most successful in the last war. For instance, after the Napoleonic Wars, a lot of continental European armies started wearing Russian-style shakos. I imagine Hungary would probably do the same. That or just go for the old standby of stovepipe shakos.

I can probably supply details for other types of uniforms if somebody takes the job or if you decide to do it yourself.

@OMG how in earth empires do we establish extra-solar colonies, i do know that i will not be able to do so myself and will require a great power. But i assume i need to make a thread and get your approval (and help hopefully) before i do so.

In regards to uniforms ill probably keep the germans of the army wearing white and the Hungarians and extras wearing red

That's do-able, but the white uniforms were sort of the symbol of the traditional European royalty. The Hungarians might not want to associate themselves with that particular sort of thing.

In terms of colonies, you just make a thread claiming the world. It's just like regular FT.

Would Russia aid me in this task? and perhaps gray for the Germans then.

Blue would probably be easier to find. You can just throw them in Prussian-style uniforms.

@Tristaniano
If Persia joines the Cythereans it will annoy Russia considerably. I would probably withdraw my aid.
