Looking for a small war

Ocion

I have yet to RP with this nation and I'm looking for a good skirmish. Not an all out invasion or nuclear exchange or anything. Anyone who is close to my size (pop 400 million) or even an alliance of smaller nations would be welcome.
Anyone interested?

Sure, I might. I fit into your around 400 million.

Only problem there is your defense budget is about twice mine.

So. Think of it. Perfect scenario. Dictator invades slightly smaller nation. A fight between Democracy and Autocracy. And besides, does it matter who wins or loses. Maybe we can just play a war game if you want, if you don't want to see half of our nations destroyed.

I was thinking more along the lines of a smirmish than an all out war. Maybe you invade some NPC puppet of mine and I deploy a force to stop you and we fight it out on their soil thus sparing our nations the devastation of total war.

That works too, but we should close the thread least the entire world come and save the NPC.

It'll be a closed RP for sure, I'm gonna wait and see if anyone else wants in, maybe a small nation will volunteer to be invaded and liberated, if not, I'll create a puppet and we can fight it out.

Was interested in joining, but realized all my puppets have grown too much(or are way too young(new). It is a good idea to close the thread thought as dogpiling happens more frequently than it really should.

I guess we can wait a little to see if anyone will join, if not we can start.

How big are they population wise? Given mine and Neo-Erusea's similar size about 30-40 million would be a good size to kinda even this out.

Can I be Ocion's Military Supplier?

I can give him a discount for the duration of the conflict.

If you want we can see about letting your puppet grow for 2-3 days till it hits 20-30 mil. If not, I'll create a NPC puppet and have fun ransacking it.

I just bought a ton of weapons from Aequatio and this my way of trying them out. Maybe you can equip my puppet, if we use one, so it can put up a small fight.

It would take around 4-5 days to get to the 20/30 mil range so might be better to utilize a NPC.

Hey Neo-Erusea:

Where is your nation located geographically? I can't seem to get your Factbook to open.

If Neo-Erusea approves we'll go with a NPC, you're welcome to to observe the hostilities if you want though.

You'll have to check with Neo, but I think we're good.

Here's the NPC.

We'll use this for the OOC thread and if it's ok with Neo, we'll start the IC thread tomorrow some time.

I really don't mind if we use an NPC or a puppet in this. I've got a story in mind already. We can go whenever you guys are ready.

Ocion: If the conflict is ongoing, I would not mind providing you with a lend-lease programme to provide spare parts or to replace equipment lost.

Cool man, I placed a small order for a light mech brigade so Doveridge will have a small force its own.

Neo: What do you have in mind, I proably won't be able to do anything ICly till tomorrow night, but we can get this set up now if you want.

Hey Neo-Erusea:

Where is your nation located geographically? I can't seem to get your Factbook to open.

Oh, sorry, this passed my attention. I am in Dun Eideann 2, although I use my own map. http://i113.photobucket.com/albums/n220/Neo-Erusea/Map.png
The capital is Farbanti.

Once my nswiki factbook starts working again you can see a bit of info about my nation.

We can start tomorrow night, its cool. I was thinking along the lines that the puppet is a newly found nation. After finding out that it has a major oilfield within it the puupet opens trade and prospers, but then I come in and attack to take the oil. Simple as that.
Ocion
13-09-2006, 02:42
Sounds good. I'll RP as the NPC at first until they're completely crushed and then I'll switch over to deploying forces to liberate them.
Ocion
13-09-2006, 02:43
I'm out for tonight, I'll check back tomorrow and we can get the IC thread rolling.

The Armed Colonial States of 1655 (including sub-colonies 1656 and 1689) would like to join in as aid toward the democratic nation in peace-keeping duties or defensive duties.
Ocion

I think we have enough people now. You're welcome to make "official" IC declarations in the RP thread, but I don't think we need more combatants.

Neo: What size force do you plan to deploy? Also, do you want to start the IC thread or should I?
Neo-Erusea

You start it. A good idea would be to announce that the nation has found an oil field, you guys (the allies) will develope diplomatic relations, set up embassies, etc, and then that's where I come in. Then we RP the war. You are also going to need a map for the nation.

I'll try to get the map and thread up tonight while I'm working on a report for class tomorrow.

Also it appears we're on the same side of the Gunkoku-Bushijatagi stand off.

Gunko and Bushi have been at it for a while. I swear if it was possible I've would have annexed them both a long time ago. Then they can have their united empire happily ever after... inside of mine.

I'm RPing the angle that their conflict threatens my access to nearby oil fields and thus I have an interst in manitained stability in the region.

I will begin formulating my assault. I look forward to this.

I'll get the IC thread up tonight sometime. I'm gonna start as Doveridge, but it'll revert to being a NPC once you conquer it. Then the fun starts.
