I was think that for Babylatia (I am one of the Imperialists) I would mainly help them by suppling them, but then get into fighting in the war.
The supply line would fail to continuous bombing (and invasion?), and my war machine would soon fail for the same reason.

Will the majority of this war be fought on Argus/East of Argus?
There should be an imperialistic force on the western side that draws in the Mesder area into the war, like a Pearl Habor.

Maybe Alan, you were supplying my war machine but stopped, so we did a surprise attack

I will ask around if anyone volunteers to do that. Maybe Dubrovka, as the commies would be allied with the imperialists at first. But most of the war will be East of Argus.

Sounds good.

Since no one has any objections to Stage One, I will begin work on Stage Two.

I can sorta volenteer for that role, some of the city-states can supply the imperials and the others the allies. Seeing as I'm in central Mesder I could be a launching point for the imperials to maybe launch an attack on Miklania's navy from aiding Shannowin?

That might be confusing, and it would help if you made a puppet to help with that. But sure. I was thinking that we (western allies) meet in your capital (of the allied city states), and then get attacked by imperialist sympathizers.

That'll work I'll make a puppet.

Yes.

Two questions.
  1. My Citizen Guard will be in existence by this point, but without the organizational structure that exists today. Could I have them wage a bloody guerrilla campaign against the occupying forces, sort of like the Mujahideen or Việt Cộng?
  2. The prior and current governments have a sort of social engineering that keeps the population desensitized to the idea of gunshot wounds, much like many African peoples were during the scramble (reports of African warriors shrugging off hit's to areas like the upper arms, guts, and chest cavity exist, and are traceable to their lack of contact with firearms and, consequently, their lack of perception of them as all-powerful killing machines). Can I have my people be less-affected than European-descended nations to low-caliber and non-lethal shots?

Sure. To both. Think French resistance.

Alright; I'll probably be drawing more on the forces that I mentioned though since my nation is a bit more forest/jungle than towns/cities.

So I can be 100% sure, what's the plan for me in stage one. And what kicks off the whole war

STAGE 2: Stalemate
http://i.imgur.com/YymTF1X.png

Black border is the area that the Imperialists control. Blue Dots are nations meeting to discuss events (Future Western Allies).

Babylatia allies themselves with the Imperialists.

Morrowind forces, now reinforced by locals, Shanowinn, and Linaviar troops, begin a counter offensive into the Forza/Havenburgh forces controlled area. Heavy resistance, the advance grinds to a halt.

Morrowind fights and defeats the Forzan navy in a battle off of Dutchland.

Delegates from several Mesder Sea region nations meet in Alantania to discuss the events, and what a suitable response should be. They are attacked by a group of imperialist sympathizers from an Alantanian city state. (name pending)

New Aapelistan, Dubrovka, (and perhaps Communist Greatship), will ally themselves with the Imperialists.

You invade and defeat Linaviar. Your overly aggressive response to Lin's strongly worded letter.

Agreed.
It would be a lot harder to believe if my navy was what it is today.

Still looking for someone to be my colonial overlord for this time period. The Pacific Peace Union, you are closest. Also, Miklania and Edrani although it could be someone else further away.

PPU sounds about right, I am empire neutral, and Edrani is completely anti-imperialist. TG him.

Map of the city-states for that time, I also made a puppet named Alantanian Imperialists for the war.

PPU was also a colony in 1940, so couldn't colonize me. I'm looking for any country on either side that used to be a colonial power even if they aren't now (colonialism was still mainstream prior to WWII).
