((OOC: War planning))

It's been quite some time since I've been able to have a decent war RP on NS. And since I'm not really looking for a bunch of political saber-rattling before I go to war with somebody, I figured we can do the planning right here. I'm looking for either someone of equal size (Meaning an 04', or an 05' nation) But I don't mind fighting an 06' or even a couple of 07' nations. I promise not to quash you with numbers. :p

As for the plot/reason for the war, the Tocrowkian Reich has under it's control a large island continent by the name of Vigil It's an oil rich place, which is primarily why we occupy it. It is also rich with other natural resources including Uranium, Titanium, etc. It The Reich shows great brutality when oppresses the native population as well. Vigil primarily has a climate and geography similar to England, with rolling hills, rivers and a cool climate with temperate summers. The reason your nation could invade the Vigil islands are right there. Either to seize the resources, or liberate the natives, or both. Now then, for some rules.


No tech wanking here. I don't give a crap what salts and chemicals go into making your fighter the stealthy-est in the universe. Nor do I care what super-duper advanced blocks of ERA make your tanks invincible. Of course some tech is going to be more advanced than others, but I don't want it to be the primary focus of this RP. I'm just looking to fight, not to see who knows more about what.
No number wanking. I don't want to have to deal with six hundred million soldiers or 18,000 super dreadnoughts. This is not to say you cannot have a large force, just keep it with the bounds of reason
WMD exchanges, on a tactical level, are fine. Nothing that can wipe cities and whole armies off the face of the map though, k?
No super soldiers or any crap like that.
I really like lists


So, anybody want to fight? Just for fun, I promise.

May be interested, what numbers were you thinking? (My army's very small :D)

On the scale of hundreds of thousands, maybe into the small millions.

For the liberation of the natives and to test the might of Ironmany's military, I would do it.
But how does one side win?

It would encompass all theaters of war.

All you have to do is kick one side off the island. :)

Wow... you're practically begging for war...

But, hey hey hey, I've got a couple thousand walking tanks (no, non of that anime bullshit- just lumbering, walking tanks like C&C's Titans) that I could contribute to the invasion.

They're really easy to destroy, I promise. Just blast 'em in the- but we don't talk about that.


If you're wondering about my nation, I had an '06-'07, and forgot about it. So, now I have an '08, with 123 million people.

It only takes one man to pilot a WT, though. And:

The large, corrupt, moralistic, pro-business government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defence, and Commerce.

We got the funds to spare for advanced tech. Corporate Police State ftw

I've got a couple of papers to do for class tomorrow (senior), but prolly will be around.

(EDIT- Wow, DaWoad said coupla, too :O)

Will this be cycled? (A,B,C,A,B,C)? Or whoever posts first? (A,B,C,B,C,B,A,C,B,A)

I've had experience in both, and while the second keeps the action going, the first makes the RP fair for all parties involved.
