Warhammer Chaos Cult rp.

I am interested naturally.

Tyler Night that is certainly an interesting chili, I am more used to seeing chicken and pork chilis. That feels like something that would be good with a nice hearty bread given how thick that is. Maybe something like a good bread bowl.

Ya I need to update the main map with everyone's claims to see if we have enough land for more people left or if I will need to have larger countries reduced in size to about the island size.

I will not have an off day until Tuesday so stuff will be intermittent with me until then.

Russia in Crimea

Captain Jordan said
That's hardly an excuse. This incursion is no better than if the US were to invade Cuba. Imperialism doesn't benefit the world anymore.

It is entirely different from the US invading Cuba.

The problem is both sides are pretty much right. The old government was close to a Russian puppet state and the new one is anti-Russian extremists supported by the US and UK. That is why only the US, UK, and France have taken hardlines opposing Russia so far with most countries not responding at all or just marginally condemning military action.

Ukraine has a strong ethnic Russian minority in many eastern regions they will find popular support through all of Southern Ukraine and could take almost everything east of the Dnieper almost with a fight as they have mobilized over 150,000 soldiers to Ukraine's current 145,000 with local support generally going to the Russians until you cross the Dnieper.

Russia in Crimea

Ukraine has mobilized it's armed forces and is bringing equipment out of storage. Crimea has fallen to Russia with only a few military holdouts left and the head of the Ukrainian Navy is being charged as a traitor by the new government for surrendering to the Russians.

Protests are now spreading throughout Eastern Ukraine as pro-Russian sentiment grows. Many people view the new government as one of extremists propped up by NATO.

With this in mind, I had an idea for my own nation's military forces. Eisenkreis is a heavily defensive nation that doesn't have an active air-force, with most of their servicemen serving in the Panzer divisions and as Panzergrenadiers. What little non-mounted infantry divisions they do have, I was imagining them as a sort of armored infantry, kind of like from Jin-Roh. Wanted to see what you thought of it before I just dropped it in my sheet as a surprise =D

Your infantry can wear thick body armor if you want. This body armor would be more like thick metal plates sewn into pouches, it would be heavy, cumbersome, expensive, and have difficulty with high velocity rounds though of some effectiveness against pistol rounds and ricochets.

Could I join this RP? I love WW2 era with the Nazis trying to take over Europe and failing at it.

Yes you may.

Hey Omega I had a question on that, you know how many nations had their own 'strange' perhaps not very effective but interesting designs of tanks and stuff that were produced on a small scale in WW2? Can people have the equivalents to those? For example the Semple tank from New Zealand.

Yes, you can have domestic designs of your own but things like the US M4, Soviet T-34, German Panzers will come from thos major nations and you must import, steal, attempt to reverse engineer, etc to get the designs of that stuff.

Anything else from things sprung from your own mind to things from smaller nations of the era you can produce domestically as long as it is within your industrial capability.

I plan to maintain analogs to real world equipment. Even if your gear has a different name to what i make up for it that is fine as we can simply say that is your nation's designation for it.

That makes sense Gemcat and will make negotiations with nations interesting as they try to tempt you to open up with promises of infrastructure and industrial capability.

Legion your military is overall too advanced by about 3 years and that is assuming you imported all those weapons as well. This is 1939 of the Panzer IV you will be seeing ausf. C or D at best. The Panzer III would be ausf C or D as well. 110+ modern tanks is also a bit much to start the RP with. Look more towards importing panzer IIs, and just starting to work on importing panzer III's and IV's. If you want an early RP thing could be negotiating for a production license of Wechsein Reich equipment. Your rifles being semi-automatic is also a bit much at the very start and I noticed it is a '39 model. It is borderline impossible to outfit your entire army with a new rifle in just a year.

I would rather people not domestically produce tanks, planes, etc that would just be becoming modern and would be the kind of thing the major powers were producing without a production license

Russia in Crimea

Nothing to make a fuss about yet. IMHO, as for now, the chance that something really serious might happen isn't that high.

Military blockade, seized airports, government building seized, Russian upper house has authorized Putin to utilize military action in Ukraine (not simply Crimea but all of Ukraine) to safeguard Russian interests.
