@Nyte: The UN convention applies to all involved in nato. And the bombings you described ACTUALLY resulted in the termination of the use of cluster bombs, making them illegal to use as a military organization. 98% of the world population follows these guidelines while the 2% well.. You see them on the news >.>

Still doesn't explain the use of white phosphorus, which is basically napalm, on infantry. And seriously in real life, if WW3 broke out, no one would give two shits about Geneva. Just saying. Even torture on Iraqi prisoners was allowed despite the geneva convention. Rules are made to be broken. Who's going to follow those written rules in war? I could go on and on about violations of geneva done by NATO countries. They turn a blind eye to it, thats all... Just pointing out that those rules are broken anyway, despite this so called convention.

London was pretty much leveled by german air raids. Not all the way but close. But I agree with Maxxy, we should probably focus on getting there

Hardly. Buildings were destroyed, but not leveled. That implies that there's no trace of the building. Many buildings in London were left in pieces, but technically still standing. Far from leveled.

And cart, I'm with you, but didn't the US pretty much bombard Baghdad with missiles and bombers? 1991 gulf war. Sure, not on the scale that Jason in suggesting, but still. And I think you mean the UN, not NATO... Yeah, the rules weren't exactly followed during the Gulf War and the invasion of Iraq... White Phosphrus, which was declared inhumane by the Geneva Convention, because it is technically a chemical attack, was used by American troops to flush out insurgents in Iraq. In war, rules tend to be broken. A lot.

If this is taking place in america, then there would be more reason NOT to use arty and strikes. It would destroy much of the city and cause millions of damage. Not to mention irreplaceable damage to monuments and the sort. Tanks are already pushing it, but if I'm controlling the other side, there won't be an airstrike or artillery unless it was an extreme situation. Even capture of a city would not warrant that as well. Maybe if the leaders of the side hunting down the supers were in danger, or imminent destruction of a war factory would warrant a strike. And it would not be made lightly.

If there a civilians around, air support and artillery would likely be declared not an opinion anyway, killing civies is a great way to get the public on the other side..

Did the first atomic bombs level Hiroshima and Naga..something or another? I can't seem to recall if they destroyed everything..Annnyway. I feel as if were nitpicking at this point. We should like, focus on getting to WW3 first. xD

Nagasaki. There were still buildings and bridges left intact though, and atomic bombs ain't really conventional.

Not necessarily more interest. I just need to put together a fully fledged OOC thread that would highlight notable history within the city and express the existence of various notable locales around town. It may take up to a week at most or *crosses fingers* two days at the least.

Thats nice to know. Thanks for the info!

This isn't a world war then. World Wars aee violent abd deadly things. I'll leave the chemical warfare and the Napalm. But rocket launchers, tanks, jets, helicopters. They stay. Cities will be taken out. Thats the effects of a world war. WMD's can stay out but I need tanks and jets and naval bombardments. Mass causlties is a fact of war. Lets have it in europe and the pacific. They always get violent anyways xD

The cities would be damaged, but not leveled. Severely damaged, but still there, as long as conventional weapons are used....

And why does it have to be just europe and the pacific? they already had two world wars there.. just have it anywhere...

I agree with the leaving the bombs at home. We can have a World War without chemical warfare. Lets just keep to guns and stuff, alright? Oh, no rocket launchers or the like either. xD

Hey, Hey, Hey. You gotta leave something for me. Let's not be too hasty here.

I'm okay with leaving out airstrikes and artillery... because, you know, destroying a city would mean millions in collateral damage.

Besides, a rocket launcher is like... an oversized gun you know... And... you know, I need at least that. because... I'm probably not going to have tanks either.... And I'll be lucky to have a few APCs...

Please don't take that away from me too. xD

So are we waiting for more interest before this is started?

I believe napalm has also been marked chemical weapon therefor has been marked illegal on 1980. Sorry to burst any bubbles here but napalm isn't really an easy item to get even in the black market. You guys should research abit....

They still had white phosphorus, which is similar to napalm.... strange, I'll have to do some research.

But yeah, killing of thousands is never a smart thing to do in war.

Ya know, The bombs that spread fire all over and are chemical fires that burn hotter and are harder to put out. Fun stuff. CChecmical warfare is for the weak. REAL WARRIORS BURN THIER ENEMIES OUT! NAPALM! NAPALM! NAPALM

Um, it's quite hard to make napalm compared to chemical weapons, which can be made with household items.

I'd be pretty strange if terrorists got hold of napalm, which is military grade weapons. Good luck trying to steal it when you have a m4 shoved up your ass.
