Okay, that's fine, doesn't *have* to be those three generals in the first place, mind.

"Presently I've written how the territory from the Japanese border in Russia to the Urals is controlled by a confederacy of sorts of former Imperial Cossacks." That's quite a large state, and really cuts down on the area available to new players in the remains of Imperial Russia, unless you're fine with people carving out their own states from said nation?

I'll probably go for a state in and around Novosibirsk. Probably re-write the nation to make it more nationalist/populist rather than strongly left-wing.

@Legion X51

I'd be fine with that too. I'm operating on the assumption that really all of what Siberia is is a whole lot of nothing. So it's a lot of geography to cover but not a whole lot of people to police. So if at some point in their occasional reigns of terror to clamp down on Communists or Socialists in the name of the Czar in Saint Petes alienates a larger community, than you can.

I'll have to dig up a few posts where they're relevant but I've done some briefing posts laying down a general idea for Siberia. But we can run on it not being complete information in the belief it's difficult to actually communicate across and through Siberia now.

OK, need an app done then.

@Dinh AaronMk I'd rather see Karak located in the hills/mountains just north of Azurei and the Starchildren, if possible.

This is where I mean

Dinh while im not yet finished fleshing out my application the base of it has been done and i wish to be put in an island.

@UltraCraftGames

Any island in mind? You can just circle it in paint.

Forgotten Lands, The Great Nations

Are there any limits to races, apart from what was stated in the first post?

@Milkman

I would really not rather stupid shit. No being of pure magic, no smurfs or mushroom people. No sentient blobs of slime. It's really up to my discretion at this point I think.

@Erik Tiber

I don't know about the NPC kingdoms you added, so I'm leaving them off. But I'll refer anyone who wants to pick land near to you to you for adjustment. But I went ahead and changed locations and edited the map as requested.

Forgotten Lands, The Great Nations

Hi, since the previous GM droppen out, I wondered if there is room again :)

@Milkman

If I like what you put out.

Forgotten Lands, The Great Nations

You can now fight me over where I put you.



Given how some details in some apps may not have been obvious and required digging, if I forgot some obscure feature than of well. *shrug*

But a couple things going on: I added lines of Latitude to give a general idea of climate or even roughly distance if we assume 1:1 with Earth. But also because at least for me the language component is important, I added a line to mark where I think the language related to myself would go. I am willing to add more to create more a language backdrop so as to make up some kind of organic relationship between kingdoms in an area based on who speaks what. You don't need to create a deep syntax but in doing this it'd be kind of expected that the naming of things somewhere loosely match up, work it out among yourselves.

If you want me to move, change, or add anything: do say. I tried to make early nations nice and big since you've all bore through this early bit so long. I'm thinking anyone I might accept in post-launch will and should be drawn smaller. I'm not adding anything more to the scale of the Star Children or Azurei again.

I'll also have to throw a new thread together, once this is settled and I get some input on magic, as said above.

Hrm. This could be interesting - if you want, I could have it so that the Pliyev Troika instead flee to China, and then potentially offer themselves as another option for a government after the Siberian invasion has been completed? Pliyev, Yeryomenko and Chuikov are all pretty hard-line communists, and would likely retain the support of a fairly sizeable chunk of the Russian Far Eastern Theatre - I estimated that the Russian Far Eastern Theatre would probably have been made up of between 24 and 28 divisions (based on relatively similar Soviet ORBATs from the 1960s in the area) and therefore they would maybe have been able to retain the support of 70-80% of the men under their command.

However, this is all subject to your ideas for the region. I can work with whatever, or I can simply relocate elsewhere if necessary.

@Legion X51

Given how the Bolsheviks were pretty much crushed before the uprising could happen, and that the February Revolution was prevented, probably helping to weaken the base of the Communist parties in the first place I doubt to begin with these figures would exist in this time-line. I would rather we work as little as possible with real life people.

Precipice of War - The Big Leagues of NRP (Only generous tippers need apply)

The plan was:

In the aftermath of the assassination of the Tsar, and the rather spectacular implosion of the Russian state, Generals Issa Pliyev, Andrey Yeryomenko, Vasiliy Chuikov and several others take command of the Russian Far Eastern Theatre's forces based around Vladivostok and Khabarovsk, and transform the area (by force in some instances) into the Commune of the Amur, a communist state in the Russian Far East with designs of eventually re-conquering Siberia and the Urals, eventually driving west and taking the capital areas in European Russia (probably not, but that's their ultimate goal).

Sadly, I was a muppet and didn't read Japan's NS, which claimed the Amur area for their own. So now, in a bit of limbo here.

@Legion X51

Presently I've written how the territory from the Japanese border in Russia to the Urals is controlled by a confederacy of sorts of former Imperial Cossacks. The Chinese are in the very early stages of invading Siberia with the intent of planting their own communist government on the pretense they're going to get Outer Manchuria back once they get around to figure out how to tackle the Japanese.

The government they intend to put in place is to be built from an activist group of sorts headed by a defrocked Orthodox Priest named Dymtro Radek whose been trying to get the Chinese government to help out for a while, and now just got them to do the thing.
