The Imperial Age: Napolean's World Signup OOC Thread

Of the council of clan
23-01-2006, 02:19
All right, this is the OOC Signup thread for a 1800 RP. You pick a country and play it either historically or you can deviate some, but try to keep it reasonable.


Time.
Our Time scale is a bit ambigious, basically we don't go year by year. We go in 3 year chunks, and you don't really have to do things in order in there, you can skip around a bit, so that everyone has a chance to do something.

War.
War is conducted by one of the war moderators, whenever you enter into a conflict you send orders and troop sizes and general objectives to the War mod and he'll RP out the battle.

Economics
You do your own Economics in the Economics thread(to be linked) and then the Econ Moderators will decide if its good, if it isn't they'll tell you to fix it. You more or less have a free hand in this.


Please do research on your country, any violations of Realism and Historical Accuricy will be handled by Ottoman Khaif and then corrected. If you become such a problem that you must go, the moderators will try to get together and vote on whether or not you stay. Since there is nine moderators at the moment it will take a vote of 6(2/3rds) to boot someone from the game.


NPC's
NPC's will handled by a player not directly involved with the roleplaying or a moderator, as the situation dictates.

So far these are the players we have

Things of interest:

With the completion of about 1/4 of Swords Around a Throne: Napoleon's Grande Armee I have learned the following:

1: France has, over the cource of the last 10 years, managed to piss off every single nation it is in contact with, including the US. The two former allies have been fighting a quasi-war on the see over the last few years (this pulled out of the first couple pages I read of American Naval History), although Napoleon is attempting to halt the practice of raiding American ships as a means of preventing commerce with Great Britain.

2: France had, the first few years of it's revolt, avoided other European powers interfering with it's affairs. While they could have walked in and crushed the rebellion while it was young, the other nations saw it as a way to weaken the French Army, at the time the "Strongest" in the world.

3: France's army was in fact full of problems for the past few years. High noblility recieving commissions of Regemental Commander directly over the heads of the more qualified and better educated career soldiers out of the lower nobility. Barring rich commoners (the educated middle class) from enlisting in officer schools.

4: More recently, the creation of vollenteer demi-brigades has reduced the experiance of the average French NCO.

5: However, the last few years of constant combat, coupled with several Army reforms produced by Napoleon, have created a much better and more professional Army.

6: The French revolution has produced a much more "American Revolutionary" style of soldier and combat. Soldiers are prone to be insubordinate, lack cohesion (except in the case of regulars) and are trained primarily for marksmanship and not volleys.

7: All armies of this time period contain regements of various nationalities. The French Army, even before invading, contained several dozen regements of Irish, Scottish, Polish, Swiss, various German, and Piedmont nationals.

8: All armies also tended to contain deserters from other armies. In some cases, you could have professional deserters, leaving one army for another whenever their fortunes (or desire to avoid battle) told them too. In addition, units being moved between fronts tended to suffer nearly 2/3rds rate of desertion, especially when passing by a units hometown/department.

9: Probubly learned more, but it's late and I didn't read that much... Being a Supervisor sucks when 1/4 of the people due for the shift just don't show up.

I would like to play

1.Polish resistance in the occupied, divided country against Russians, Prussians and Austrians.

2. Tadeusz Andrzej Bonawentura Kosciuszko and other Polish emigrants in France, trying to gain support for the Liberation War in their homeland.

3. Vistula Legion, if it ever takes form in this RP, and other possible formations/armies fighting alongside the French (or against them, depending how this story developes!).

Is this acceptable?

Remember, Poland and Polish men played a very important role in the Napoleonic Wars. My honest opinion is that it deserves a player, atleast as much as Tuscany, Helvetia and Wallachia do! :p

well I'm not the head moderator, but i'm going to lean towards no for this suggestion. We don't need to over complicate this RP with resistance movements. Thats something we're trying to avoid from E20.

But since i'm prussia, I'm biased so It's up to Rodenka, and Ottomans I guess.

That is a valid point. However, as I said, Poland was the most important and loyal ally of France during the war, and fielded tens if not hundreds of thousands of men later in the war, especially during the Russian campaign. IMHO, taking nations like Tuscany, Nippon, Wallachia and whatnot is what may over complicate an Napoleonic RP much more than including an essential country like the Poland, occupied or not, was.

EDIT: Actually, I can pull back my request for leadership of the resistance if moderators wish so. Emigrants, Vistula Legion and other possible Armies in Exile (untill the Duchy of Warsaw is(possibly)formed) will do just as fine.

the nations listed are those that just aren't taken, Most of them i really don't want to have players but i'm giving the option because they existed.

P.S. i remember seeing you in E20 but I can't remember what country you played. Or were you in my USCW RP?



Doh, i'm an idiot, how could I forget who my commander in Missouri was.

Listen your more then welcome to play with us in this RP, but not as Poland( I just talked to Rodenka, he agrees with me).

As the realism mod for this game, I would said the odds for Polish rebellion around this time periods are low...one Prussia is strong and not unstable and not mistreatment of the poles is happening.Plus Natonalism is a still young and still growing give it another 30 to 40 years you'll see nationalist rebellion,but for now..not nationalist rebellions..unless the states are ultra weak or an outside state is helping your rebellion..but I don't want to deal with rebellion atm..just a pick a nation from the list.


Yet Poland does rebel in 1806 against Prussian rule, but the outcome of this...depends on many factors..If France does come to help the Poles are good as dead..

Update our front page, Clans!

In other news, a close reading of By Order of the Kaiser which looked to be a very detailed account of the Prussian Navy during the completely wrong timeperiod actually wound up... A) Being about the German Admiral Ernst Otto von Diederichs. B) Informing me of various ship names, of a Prussian Navy, and how it came about aquiring those ships (bought from the British) C) What the Prussian navy was designed to do (Defend, Protect and Project, in order of importance) D) Give me a splitting headache (though this may be related to working for more hours combined than I had time off between shifts) and E) going into great detail about the various naval traditions of the era.

Because I have a giant raging headache, I'm not going to post everything now, but rather hope that I manage to feel better tomorrow and maintain at least some of the knowlege in my mind. Hopefully I'll be able to give you all a good report of it, as I'm sure a splitting headache and a feeling of general crappyness is all the excuse I need (for myself anyway, my professors might be another story) to avoid class.

Also, for those confirmed, we have a chat room reserved for players of the game on Chatzy. Simply TG one of the mods for the website, and create a handle that reflects your country. We are for the most part using the names of our respective world leaders. Look for a very long winded President John Adams (that's me).

Proclamation from the King, His Majesty Fredrick III

These are Fertile lands to raise Cotton and various other Agricultural Goods. To secure the Deed of these territories the settlers must meet the following conditions. People that Wish to settle must pay for their fair for transit to New Berlin.

-Not sell this land to speculators for 15 years
---A speculator as defined as one that holds the Deeds to more than two plots of equivalent size
-Must not Sublet Lands for 5 years
-Do not mortage against these lands for 8 years
-Must remain settled on these lands for 5 years
-Must produce a child or bring Children with you within 3 years
-Must offer the service of one Male to the Militia while residing in that territory to be called up upon emergency.
-Must respect all edicts put forth by the Royal Governor and his Agents


Failure to meet any of these conditions will result in these Penalties
-eviction by the Royal Governor or his Agents
-a Fine of 160 Marks to be paid to the Royal Governor or his Agents

I think I get it... 1800+-5 years is like this:

The year is 1800. However, if you get in a war or other rp going, that war can lag up to 5 years behind, or get up to 5 years ahead. Remember how the MEU rebellion got behind the general time flow in E20? This rule would let it get up to five years behind. Hope that helps.

Yes, we sorta agreed to this a while ago in the chatzy. The basics is this, you can do stuff up to five years ahead of schedule. And change it in response to actions taken by others if stuff happens during the interum. Also, in the case of a war, it can get up to 5 years behind. Naturally, the best possible senario is for everyone to be on the same time scale, however that isn't always possible.

Let me put it another way, you SHOULDN'T get too far ahead, and you SHOULDN'T get too far behind. But sometimes you need to. Since we're just starting though, would everyone be fine with it being 1800+-2?

If you are involved in a War of some kind, please make a thread reguarding it, and post/telegram the War Moderators involved (CoC for Army, Rodenka for Navy) AND Ottomans as the reality mod. If either of them are directly involved, they and you can work out a designated replacement. DO NOT declair "I move in with my 4 regements of Cavalry and pwned (insert name of random Germanic State here)", instead wait for the War Moderator to decide what exactly your units did.

So far no one has really worked out the system for combat, and we are starting in the middle of a serious set of wars, so we really need to get on the ball. I'm going to try and get up my own thread (US Navy vs. French Privateers) tomorrow, and I hope that others of you will do the same.

TG at least 2 GOOD RP's you've participated in and if you know anyone within the corp group or E20's RP have them vouch for you, it'll help you out a lot.

This isn't a general signup, you have to apply to get in, and then once in for a little while your given a smaller nation on a provisional status, before we let you handle someone important. And Austria is VERY important right now.

And you survived the same way smaller nations survived in this period of history. They didn't directly confront larger more powerful ones, and have delusions of granduer. And then they hope a war against them is too much trouble and too expensive for a bigger power to mess with.

I'll try to keep it even but he might end up running more campaigns, especially if this RP survives through March, I'll be unable to get near a Computer in between March 20th-April 2nd/3rd. I'll retain Administrative Duties as well.

I've done a search on your work, and I'm moderately impressed, but I seriously don't think you *really* want to be Bavaria for two reasons. 1: As has already been established, Bavaria can't do much more than request politely to be allowed to do things; and 2: I hope you enjoy being a Prussian or Austrian or French or British province in about 10 years.

We could really use a Papal States, even though it's reserved, I doubt the fellow we're saving it for is ever going to show.

At any rate, you're in for something. If you have your heart set on Bavaria... well, don't say I didn't warn you.

If you have a nation you've RPed with before, POST WITH IT FIRST! This will allow us to actually see who it is that's doing the RP. Then if you want to switch to a new nation's name, you can.

We will not accept anyone without RP experience. We will not accept anyone who lacks the ability to make a cohesive post. We will definately not accept anyone who doesn't have a basic grasp of history. And we can't figure out whether you have any of the above or not if you don't have any posts we can search for.

So save Clans the time to type out "Denied" in a new and creative way. Don't try and post with a 70 or less post nation. We don't even need to look to say no.

You can be Bavaria if you really want to be, but there is one small problem


You are Austria's Bitch if you become Bavaria. Cut and dry, and pretty much whatever he lets you do, you get to do. Prussia is pretty hands off with Bavaria right now due to some under the table dealings that have gone on.
