• The End of the Wall: A Post Cold War game starting in 1989

I'm back! I'll be running a country RP game starting in the year 1989. If you're new to this type of game, welcome! Feel free to ask me or any players how this game is played. If you're a seasoned veteran then you know the drill. Each turn will last 6 months. Another thing to note. There will be a degree of randomness to this game. I'll be using dice to help decide events. They'll be weighted based on my perception of the likelihood of policies working but there will still be that degree of risk. Additionally there will be the chance for random natural disasters and NPC events due to dice. This should add much more depth to the game. Interesting Situations: - Russian devolution, what lands will they be able to maintain and will they be able to keep stability? - German unification, will Germany become a powerful state or will they flounder? - The Lone Superpower, the United States is alone at the top, how will they manage this role? - Chinese growth, can they rise up to match the United States? - The Middle East, can the western nations handle the region or will it fall into total chaos? - The Drug War, can Mexico survive? Map: [t]http://i.imgur.com/T5TNqWf.png[/t] RULES 1. Send in a PM to Mr. Face, with the following title: "Countryname: Turn X" 2. DON'T write turnsheets that are too long. 3. DO write up to 10 and no more lines (of commands) in your turn. 4. The PM you send will take the following form for the first turn: [QUOTE]Flag: (image is 250x150 pixels, I will provide a flag if you fail to) Country name: Technology: Research projects. Length of research varies based on what you decide you want to attempt to research. Military: Everything involving your military goes here. Also includes expansion on the map via force. Domestic affairs: Everything inside of your countries borders. External affairs: Everything outside of your countries borders. Includes expansion on the map via peaceful methods Espionage: Spying and other unsavory actions. Events here will be PMed to you unless you specify a desire for something else.[/QUOTE] Additionally, I would request that all players join the FPRP Steam group. I plan on having regular UN discussions in the group chat there. I plan on these chats being held after each turn.

Other people may join the chat as well, you don't have to be a current player. However I withhold the right to remove you if you behave poorly. Non-players who join the chat will be given the opportunity to roleplay NPC nations in UN chats at my discretion. I'll DM you the general role you should be playing in that situation. [I] Do not start OOC arguments in Slack's general chat. In-character arguments are fine, just keep it civil as much as character allows. If you must argue, do it in private messages. Nobody wants you shitting up the chat.[/I]

[QUOTE=Satansick;49831941]Not if I join a historically illogical mega alliance first![/QUOTE] I'll probably be limiting the use of nuclear weapons as well as the ability to enter unreasonable alliances for this exact reason.

I'm feeling brave enough to make this my first RP, I've read all the recent country RPs but have no idea what happens behind the scenes. I'd like to play as the new Ukraine but it's technically not independent yet, so Ukrainian SSR? Also, how long are the turns, 6 months, a year? Also just joined the RP group

You'll have fun. Ukrainian SSR is an option, you'll have to run everything by Russia for the first few turns however.

Thanks, taking Poland then. [editline]29th February 2016[/editline] Turn sent, let's see how much turns in my country will colapse in.
Doesn't Poland have a Russian and Chinese minority that need to be protected? I think we might need a Sino-Soviet conjoint army to save them!
Sending in my turn later tomorrow afternoon. In the mean time, if anyone wants to interact with Vietnam, shoot me a PM
Should I join in? i haven't done one in a long time rip, wanted poland, didn't see the post. Well, then, let me figure this out if I do join. if I choose Yugoslavia, do I pick who I get, since well, them breaking apart is sort of hard to stop in 1989.
