How will this go? IRL map or one of your own design? If IRL, are we limitted to Europe or can our nations be based further away from eachother?

I might be interested in joining, although I've never played a steampunk RP so I wil try to remain minor until I get the hang of things and learn all of the terminology.

I used to be a nation of over a billion population. However, I stopped playing Nation States years ago and have only come back recently and forgot my nation's name. Please don't consider me a noob due to the small size of my current nation.

We'll do a map of Europe, but you can be farther away, like in North Africa or Asia Minor.

Read Behemoth, I take it? :p Quick question: Is it possible to be a combination nation, similar to America in Westerfeld's books?

OOC: Yes. Actually, I was planning on being one. You just have to pick one side. You can be Darwinist leading nation, I could be clanker or vice versa.

Yes. Actually, I would encourage it. There aren't many named in Leviathan or Behemoth. Hopefully they will have more in Goliath.

I once participated in an RP based on the Leviathan books before. It was very good, although only about half the players turned up and I ended up being one of only two active members of my faction. Needless to say I lost. This time I shall put that right.

Nation Name: The New Dalek Empire
Full nation Name in RP: Greater Dalek Reich
Beastie/Clanker: Clanker
Main Fighting Machines/Fabs: Daleks, zeppelins, land ships
Area on map: Denmark, German states of Schleswig-Holstein, Hamburg & Mecklenburg-Vorpommern

For those of you curious about what a Steampunk Dalek looks like.

May I join or is this a region-only thing?
I'll respond to a lot of titles, but I preferred to go by Forest.

Unless stated otherwise, I have disowned all of the posts, both in and out of character, that I made years ago. I would like to think that both my real, out-of-character behavior and my in-character role-playing skills have matured.

A very resource rich continent, mind you. If he claimed Antarctica, I wouldn't mind as much.

That said, we need more Darwinist nations... I'm all alone. Oh, and Polska, those aren't the only fabs/machines we're allowed to use, just the main ones, right?
