NationStates Jolt Archive

Hey,

Im running a Cold War RP External From nationstates, and am looking to fill a few gaps in the Game. The Way the game is played is abit like Risk, but with political and economic Role Playing Included, aswell as military. This is a "list forces" RP, so your gonna have to be Prepared to do Some math and send a while investing in your dossiers (troop Locations, Army Composition ect, inplace so everyone can react properly to threats).

The games been balanced fairly realisticly with Countries sorted into Economic and Population Brackets, with Daily Incomes assigned.

Suggested Countries to Play:

Vietnam
Egypt
Syria
South Africa
Turkey
South Korea
North Korea
Canada
Japan
Romania
Bulgaria
Italy
Spain
Greece

Countries Allready Taken:

France
China
UK
USA
USSR
West Germany
East Germany
Poland
Australia
Norway
Cuba
Saudi Arabia
Yugoslavia
Libya


The important Countries Needed really are Yugoslavia and Turkey, but any of the above countries or any other country you request to play not allready taken are equally Viable.

Please Post below if you wish to Play(so i know who you all are)

Then visit A-RPG (http://s3.invisionfree.com/Anubis_RP_Guild/index.php?) and register. Under any Name you wish.

Join if you're serious about roleplaying, this is good stuff.

Yugoslavia just taken

Bumpety Bump

I'll take Saudi Arabia. Just as a question, do we use the countries RL of the time militaries or our own from NS

Somewhat based on real-life militaries of that nation during that time period

okay then, thanks

So is Canada avail again, what with its full military power? I mean, it just invaded the US and got a very sharp kick in the rear, so does this have any negative affect on it?...

Canada is available.

Some moron, Who I won't mention their name *cough* zoggie *cough* didnt some stupid stuff so we had to delete the stupidity out of the game.

:lol:

So what date roughly will the RP be set in? Right in the middle of the Vietnamise war?

If the RP is a go, I wish to play the part of Iraq. Would this be possible?

canada please

I'll take north korea

Japan :)

Yeah, you can play Iraq if you want. On the first post of this page, it gives a list of some of the countries which are best for this RP, and you may well get more out of playing, but we aren't going to stop you joining as a country of your choice that isnt on the list (like Iraq.....)

And for those people who are interested in this: By all means post here if you are interested, but if you follow the link on the first post, register on our site, and go to the sign-ups thread (you'll find it in the General section of the Cold War RPG forum) then you will save some time, and get in-game quicker. Just post who you want to be and we'll find you out your basic info (which weapons you are using, basically) and then you're away. Feel free to PM Xander or IngSoc (or myself) on those boards if you have any questions.....or send us a telegram here, if you feel the need......

I'm new to roleplaying, but I'd like to try. This sounds really awesome. Maybe there is an out of the way country I could be?

Out of the way? Hmmm....

Depends really, on whether you want a quite powerful country, that's neutral, or a smaller country that is on either the Soviet or American side. If you want a more powerful country, India favoured both sides of the Cold War, but never really got that involved.....you could just stay neutral and RP along as we go.....if you're looking for a smaller country, that wasn't necessarily neutral, there were nations all over the world in that position that you can pick. All of South America and most of Africa is free, so are the Middle East countries.....and if you want to take on a particularly out of the way country, you can take any of the Pacific Island nations. All of these would help add another dimension to the game, also.....course, its probably in your best interests to go for a country a step or two up from those nations, but the option is there if you want it....

Whichever you choose, if you're interested in joining then come down to the website, and just follow the instructions in my post half the way back up this page to get to the sign-ups thread (you'll want to register first though...). Post in that thread explaining your position, and we'll sort you out in no time....

Thank you. I do realise it was not on the list, however IMO Iraq has a lot of potential for becoming a cold war flashpoint and involved heavily in any economic war. I also know alot about Iraq and the forces at the time so this should help. My second choice would have been Egypt, however I know hardly anything about the armed forces at the time.

BTW, whats the link to the forum?

You can click on the word "A-RPG" at the bottom of the very first post in this thread, that's the link.....

Or you could just follow this one:

BUMP?

BUMPage again. I don't know if this is till the case, but last time I checked, the RP needed a new US player. Obviously, as this is just an intiative on my part, anyone wanting to fill the position will have to check with Falastur or whoever.

I'll take Syria if there's no problem

I'll take Syria if there's no problem

BUMP again, more players still needed. http://x3.invisionfree.com/Anubis_RP_Guild/index.php?act=idx

Sign-ups are best conducted now, since the game is on pause until we can get new players for the US and UK. AFAIK, the current nations taken are these:

U.S.S.R.
France
W. Germany
E. Germany
N. Korea
Czechoslovakia
Poland
Yugoslavia
Japan (though this may become available)
Australia
Libya
Egypt
Syria
Israel
Iraq
Mexico
Cuba
Norway

Therefore, some suggested nations:

U.S.A.
U.K.
Jordan
India
Pakistan
Lebanon
Iran
South Africa
pretty much any African or South American nation.

Join up people, it's good fun and very interesting! :D

May I be the U.S.A?

You'll have to wander along and sign up at the URL provided above, then post there in the Sign-ups section (Cold War RPG/General/Sign-ups) asking if it's OK for you to take the USA. :)

May I be the U.S.A?

You can be the USA, sure, but you may find it hard work. I'm not by any means suggesting you can't do it, but it involves more planning strategy, knowing where everything is and coordinating than any of the other nations. If you think you're up to it, fine, cool! But just a word of warning if you don't necessarily feel like that.....

*BUMPAGE*...still need more people! Honestly! It's great! C'mon!

Once again, thanks DPUO....

C'mon people, this is your chance to sign up....

BUMP.....try it out!

Well since I can't be Yugoslavia can I be Croatia. I know in real life they were not part of the cold war but since I am croatian I just thought it would be cool.

Yugoslavia - You may have trouble trying to be a seperate nation with Yugoslavia. Ontop of that, It wasnt even a soverign nation.

COMEON PEOPLE LOADS OF CHANCES TO DO STUFF! It's a great game and its a change from the norm. Believe me, I cant stop going on it, even though the game is now paused!

If your going to ruin your social life, try this RP out

Remember we want SKILLED roleplayers. Hotshots will only get thrown out.

Much as I would like to let you, I'm pretty sure that Croatia was part of Yugoslavia during the Cold War, and so I don't think - unless we arranged something, which might take time and might be turned down - that you could.....Sorry....

Would you like to take another nation? That list further up the page is still up to date.....

You might want to go and register at the boards, and ask there also. While I and DPUO are bumping this topic, our Mods and admin are all there (obviously), and are able to answer problems and queries like this one.

hehe, thanks for the support, Saddaam....

Perhaps Yugoslavia you could pick some another nation close by like Bulgaria or Hungary...

EDIT: Or even Italy!

BUMP for more players

BUMP!!!!!!! COMEON

BUMP for players
