Alternate History: its 1995 and this is a different world. The Cold war is still rageing, the berlin wall is still up, and the Russia backed warsaw nations and the US backed NATO are the two world powers.


Map of the World (http://x2.putfile.com/7/18620502282.jpg)
Blue = NATO
Teal = Nato Sphere of influence

Red = Warsaw Pact Nations
Pink = Soviet Sphere of Influence

Green = Non Aligned Movement Nations
Yellow = Non Aligned Movement Nations that were backed by the USSR at some point
Dark Green = Non Aligned Movement Observer Nations



(The White line between east and west berlin is the berlin wall)


The Game goes as such, Pick a nation (check the map to see if what you want is a country or not) and join the RP. The Technology is regular 1995 technology, computers and the internet are regular themes.

Basic Rules:
1. NO NUKES and NO MAGIC for either side
2. NO GODMODDING
3. and BOTH israel and palestine are valid choices (link Link if you dont understand (http://x2.putfile.com/7/18620451734.jpg))
4. The Allyances are pre-set, but later into the game the 3 allyances can be destroyed and new allyances can be brought up LATER!.
5. Always have someone RP NPC countries
6. Population *should* be about the same as they were in 1995, they shouldnt be much different they they are in 2005, but as for nations that nolonger exists, try and estimate (add the modern day nations that it is made up of or something), and tell me or India so we can see if its valid

Use THIS 1995 CIA world fact book (http://www.umsl.edu/services/govdocs/wofact95/)
(world pop 5,733,687,096)
7. Have a good time!

Ill go first and Choose the Socialist Federal Republic of Yugoslavia.

Sweet, but I am planning on my own agreement. North Korea, Vietnam, Laos, Nepal, and Tajikistan mostly will probably be in it (If they RP like RL nations of this time from my influence).

The Yellow Agreement, muhahahaha, live long Multi-Power Democracy!
Tetris L-Shaped Block
07-07-2005, 03:17
hahahah the yellow agreement, well after this gets off ill loosen up allyances so its not just Nato, warsaw and non aligned
Truitt
07-07-2005, 03:21
Hey, the Yellow Agreement was the proposed (Yellow Pact, actually) pact for China, Vietnam, Laos, North Korea, Taiwan, and Tajikistan when they were at their height of communist-influence at the end of the USSR around 1993.

So invading NPCs is allowed or is NOT allowed?

Yea...being the small speck of land I am...I plan on staying allied with the USA and UK lol >_>
Tetris L-Shaped Block
07-07-2005, 03:23
I guess so, but technicaly most around you would be your Non-aligned nation

Of course untill the allyances fall and you can attack anyone just about...
Pyschotika
07-07-2005, 03:24
Not to be an ass, but...it is Alliances, unless you like spelling it that way lol

Man India's been taken! Goddamn! Oh well. I'll take the good ol' US! Do we use real-life equipment or can we create our own equipment? Also do we use the nation's stats or our own stats? Thanks :)

Use the weaponry that has been invented up till 1995, thats my guess.

I'm just trying to find a site that has the Israeli weaponry from 1995, and I am hoping the Galil is from '95 or earlier. Everyone knows the Desert Eagle came out a long ass time ago, ^_^..oh yea...lol

okay USA added
Pyschotika
07-07-2005, 03:38
Okay, I am just going to use this as my reference post lol.

Israel recieved large shipments of American M16s and Car-15s during the 60s and 70s even up to the 90s, so I'll use the ones I have recieved from '92 till '95 since there isn't a rule on what really happened during those years ( regardless if there was a cold war or not, USA would still ship those weapons. ) Otherwise, IMI Galil is in mass stockpiles, and the IMI Tavor is a IDF Breakthrough.

Everything else I have in my head lol..^_^

Population: Idea, lets just use the 2005 Population? Make it a bit easier, since no sites really tell you the population in any given year unless someone wants to get a Almanac out lol. Infact, I gotta get the clothes out of the drier..someone should google World Almanac of '95.

Couldnt find an alminac, take 10% off of the 2005 population if you could (and be sure that west bank/gaza strip arent in the pop)

BOW DOWN TO I!

Israel 1995 Population - 5,433,134 (July 1995 est.)

( I think it may include Gaza and West Bank, so let me fix it..it tells me precisely how many are in West Bank etc too )

Official Population - 5,306,334

Tip for USSR if he checks the link: Look up all nations that were part of the USSR too before it fell in 1990, add all of them up and you should have your pop of 1995.

A "History" since 1982

1982 - Regean assasinated

1982 - George H. W. Bush becomes president

1985 - Bush goes to Berlin Wall with " TEAR DOWN THIS WALL!" speech... Germans don't like and Wall doesn't come down

1986 - Slobadon Milosevich (yugoslav leader) resigned from pressure from other govenrment officals. Roumers sperad that he supported serbian nationalist movements.

1989 - Many people try to tear down wall... most are killed

1991 - communism almost falls but Soviets remain strong


Just a little history

I just thought of something.

Inter Continental Ballistic Missiels are NOT allowed simply because they heavily imbalance the game in favour of the CCCP and the USA (sorry). Its a delicate balance and the non-aligned movement nations lie in the mix. Landmine's however, are fair game!

okay, just so everyone knows
