The Crysukon government, a socialist dictatorship
The Crysukon Republican Army, a libertarian socialist force
The Crysukon Volunteer Force, composed of conservatives and reactionaries
And the Neo-Democratic Alliance, constructed from a broad spectrum of pro-democratic forces.
Now this didn't just start one day, in the new millenium a wave of democratic movements began which the government surpressed, often violently. But one day, they went too far. During a particularly large protest in the capital, the government buildings were surrounded, the streets filled with the angry attempting to climb the barricades and reach the cowering government. But the head of the army made a fateful decision, to fire upon the invading protestors.
The streets ran red, and outrage was widespread. Generals and leaders who kept their views secret, the libertarians and democrats kept their secrets no longer, and orchestrated a rebellion the likes of which had never been seen since the first civil war. Large swathes of the army broke away, forming various factions.
The CRA, despite being outnumbered, keeps on their offensive against the regular army, who is struggling with supply and morale issues, two more state capitals risk falling to them and the battle lines remain fluid.
the central nation, however, is a complete mess. despite NDA forces being boxed in at Chappas, the states of Tannistas, Kesenhol, Finaxi and Hycras have become bloodbaths, with the heaviest fighting being the attempted NDA attack towards Tanninstel, and the government counterattack attempting to collapse the pocket that has formed. Meanwhile, the CVF continue to expand into undefended areas, but struggle against the main army.
That's the situation, ripe for intervention from foreign powers of any kind.
OOC:
Hi! this is a civil war RP which will determine the future of this nation IC and otherwise, but first of all, let's set some rules:
1. No numberwank. This means using ludicrous amounts of troops and equipment, be reasonable in this regard
2. no metagame. your forces and chars can't act on knowledge they don't have IC
3. respect the tech level. This is moderate PMT, so stuff like magnetic weaponary and other similar technology will see use, if you plan on using power armour and plasma then don't bother
4. keep the flow. This is based on wide scale conflict, obsessing over individual people and situations isn't the idea
5. be polite. yes, yes hostility will happen IC but don't screw other people over at a chance of an easy win
6. be detailed. one sentence battles are lazy and tacky, even if it's just a troop movement, make it interesting to read.
and here's the application form:
