Henselt 9 Share Posted October 26, 2014 Out of curiousity, how exactly does tech work? Do you state in your post that your country has begun working on an advancement and by the next post, it would've been completed? It usually goes by pages, never understood it entirely myself. Much rather have the mod dictate the amount of pages required rather than myself to avoid the possibility of powergaming. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
5678 260 Share Posted October 26, 2014 Out of curiousity, how exactly does tech work? Do you state in your post that your country has begun working on an advancement and by the next post, it would've been completed? Well first you decide what tech you'd like to be researching and make a small description of it in your post. Then, you decide how long it would take you to complete it and denote is as ((3 pages)) or however many are needed. It's encouraged that it take 2+ pages unless it's something small like mobilization of some men or a new optic sight or something. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bolajay 4 Share Posted October 26, 2014 What do you mean by pages? Do they have to actually write 2 pages worth or wait 2 pages? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
5678 260 Share Posted October 26, 2014 What do you mean by pages? Do they have to actually write 2 pages worth or wait 2 pages? You wait two pages before the tech is available. If I want a giant tank ((3 pages)), and I start the research on page 13; then it will be available by page 16. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sneaky 189 Share Posted October 26, 2014 Yes, but it should take longer than just 3 pages as that is a super short time period. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Han Solo 35 Author Share Posted October 26, 2014 Nation Name: Third Mexican Empire Starting Military Strength: http://www.globalfirepower.com/country-military-strength-detail.asp?country_id=mexico Leader Name: Emperor Maximilian II History: With the recent surge in reactionary and traditionalist views brought on by the 2020 revolutions, Mexico has been hit with internal strife and turbulence. Don Maximilian von Gotzen-Iturbide, patrineally descended from Emperor Agustin and Emperor Maximilian I, thereby making him a pretender to the Mexican throne, puts his long-awaited plan into motion. With backing of a few Mexican generals and pro-monarchist citizens, Maximilian lands in Padilla with a host of 50'000, mostly composed of mercenaries (namely the Defion Internacional) and militiamen, all armed with equipment of varying quality. The army advanced towards Mexico City, joined by the royalist generals and warlords that further augmented Maximilian's army, that by the time they reached Mexico's City's outskirts, they had just over 100'000 men. Upon arriving, they were greeted by a hastily conscripted army, equipped with outdated rifles numbering roughly 3/10 of their forces. They were hideously disorganised and looked as if they would waver at the first sign of trouble. However, in the time it took Maximillian's host to arrive at Mexico City, they had begun entrenching themselves which gave them a tactical advantage. Maximilian split his army up into three segments of 25'000, 50'000 and 25'000 respectively. All were commanded by one of the seasoned generals that had joined him. The 50'000 division moved in to engage the encamped Mexican force of 30'000, who had apprehensively awaited their arrival. The left and right flank began to detach from the main congestion, moving to flank the numerically inferior fighting force. For days the battle waged on, proving to be indecisive until the leader of the 50'000 division concocted an ingenious idea to lure them out of their trenches, they would feign a retreat. When the opposing soldier's began to ostensibly retreat, the Republican Army began to celebrate as a multitude of them left the trenches to give chase. However, that would prove to be a dire mistake. The 50'000 segment stopped withdrawing and circled their pursuers, mercilessly cutting them down. This ruthless act had disheartened the remainder of the entrenched force, who now numbered only 6'000. They subsequently surrendered, leaving Mexico City devoid of opposition. The attacking armies occupied the city and deposed the President, restoring the archaic monarchy. Maximillian’s coronation was only a few days later where he was crowned Maximillian II. However, he still had much to do. He had violently taken the throne and undermined his citizens fervently loyal to republicanism, who have now set up underground resistances. The way he had taken power also destabilised the country further with some warlords declaring independence. Not to mention the increasingly violent cartels that had occurred with his ascension. His next moves had to be smart ones, his regime depended on it. Would you like to be considered to be a mod? Y/N: N Accepted. Nice App!!! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

hellfiazz 879 Share Posted October 26, 2014 Sweden became the SUNS which includes Sweden, Norway, Denmark and Iceland. I made 2 modreqs on page 14. Finland, Livonia and Estonia declared independence from the Slavic Union. Indonesia and Indochina now basically own China, but suffered millions of civilian casualties to a last stand nuke spam from China, which is now a nuclear wasteland. Indonesia and Indochina haven't divied out the land yet though. Italy took Istanbul, and them and Germany are now attacking into Turkey. France and the SUNS are battling IC forces in North Africa, which won't have any supplies as the SUNS bombed their supply depots and lines, and made the supply convoy routes into minefields. SUNS doesn't have any ground troops actually fighting, they're currently just naval support. Think that's everything, but you should go through the modreqs from the last mod post, which was page 14.
