this is the possibly long anticipated sequel to the award winning (maybe) RP that spawned NS 1650 and many more. this time, it will be based in the 1860s, which means new tech (gattling guns, ironclads ect.) and an updated rule system (i still need help with the map though)

Uniform sheet

What do you mean "states or provinces"? Aren't alt history RPs supposed to revolve around your actual NS nations?

I am interested, will this be a world-wide territory claim or just the U.S.?

It would actually be simpler to use NS territories. That way more people can join and merely adapt their existing factbooks, rather than drafting brand-new ones based on RL geography.

I am interested, but when you say that we can claim several territories, do you mean countries that existed in 1860 or the areas of countries that exist in the present day? And for population are we going to use RL figures for 1860?

I would like South Korea, North Korea, and the Manchuria region, or South Korea, North Korea, and Japan. If at all possible, South Korea, North Korea, and Manchuria. This doesnt have to be factual 1860 nations, right? If so, i would like to call myself the "Dae Baedal Jaeguk"

Militia: like a Volksgrenadier
Cavalry: like a German Empire Cavalry
