1991 Role Play: Brainstorming and Planning

NOTE: THIS THREAD IS A CONTINUATION OF: 1991 Role Play (Original Thread)

**NOTE: THIS IS JUST AN IDEA FOR NOW UNTIL ANY CURRENT FORUM RP GAMES END AND IF WE GET ENOUGH PARTICIPANTS**

Here we can discuss ideas about planning the roleplay, including what bloc nations should be in, landgrabbing issues, bloc balancing, etc. I'm going to put down people's names here who want certain nations, although nobody's locked in just yet - everyone has an opportunity to sign up for the nation they want. Major powers, such as Russia, USA, UK, etc. will only be given to trusted community members who have previous RP experience.

Western Bloc (NATO):

Eastern Bloc (Warsaw Pact/Cominform/Comintern):

Neutral Bloc (Non-Aligned Movement):

  • Spain - @russ_russ1
  • Finland -
  • Turkey -
  • n/d
  • Morocco -
  • Poland - @That polish guy
  • Egypt* - @Carking the 6th
  • Switzerland (AI)
  • Iraq (AI)
  • Austria (AI)
  • Tunisia (AI)
  • Portugal (AI)
  • Greece (AI)
  • Czechoslovakia (AI) (Remember Czechoslovakia didn't break up until 1993)
The captain of the neutral team would be chosen later.

Countries with an asterisk (*) will only be available for players with previous RP experience, as we will need quailty performances from these nations for the RP to play out adequately.

Also, so this thread doesn't turn into a 20-page off-topic s**tshow, please ONLY DISCUSS THINGS RELATED TO THE PLANNED 1991 RP HERE. Thank you.

Yeah why not. I also believe that 12hours is better than 24hrs

@The Mister Class has been banned, what did he do? He seemed like a good guy.

Me applied for Russia.
He deserves it. He didnt commit any rulebreaks in the last RP (apart from a few instances of minor NP articles which were too short, but so did Zaktty, Carking, Kadeko, Zhukov and most of the other mods.) Some of the other Mods did completely ignored the rules and abused their powers.
Tell that to @Amotah… but provided Claudio has the time to be active I’d agree that he is perfect.

I am still deciding whether I want to request that countries can make tensions for allies and have to do so for a joint war declaration

They must anniunce the alliance in public 48 hours at least before war starts
I think a simply solution to the declaring war on allies is that people in public alliances (it must be specified exactly who is in them) then they may join their ally at war immediately as they do. Secret alliances should be allowed, but they should have to build up tensions to a lesser extent (2 instead of 3 days) to declare war and join in.
I insist that nations should not be able to fight without a 24 hour war declaration
Yes. It wont work at all if people just attack in the middle of the night leaving you no time to respond.
That makes the rp boring. There needs to be a surprise factor. 24hrs too long.
We did 12 hours in the last small map RP’s, and that worked. Thing about all these cooldowns is that they are technically worthless. If you just find when the enemy will be asleep and declare war then, you can just attack them when they are inactive anyway.

I disagree. At this point the defender has a ridiculous advantage. The attacker already gets the element of surprise completely removed, allow this and the defender may as well automatically win 90% of the wars they join.

No idea, he did literally nothing wrong from what I knew.

For the sake of RP, I think there should be some time before invasion occurs, it can be reduced from 12 to 8hours. 8 is the best number.

Why Amotah?
The President

He seems to think you broke a few rules, I forgot which ones. Or maybe I’m just talking out of my ass.


CarKing the 6th of the Abrahamic Caliphate

Amotah didn't say anything like that.

The President

It wasn’t in a place where you could see it.


CarKing the 6th of the Abrahamic Caliphate

I don't think he'd say that though. Maybe someone else?

The President

Maybe. I could see the whole war warping my memories since I was so focused on Brazilian fleet movements and such.


CarKing the 6th of the Abrahamic Caliphate

How about the defender can initiate conflict within the 24 hours after the declaration, or choose to wait.

The Swedish Piers Morgan

That’s what the mods were thinking. Still, it gives more power to the defender to control where and when the fight will start when the attacker should be the one dictating all of this.

Why will the defender initiate a conflict, he will wait in all cases. Agreed with carking, gives the defender unfair advantage.

Look at the first page. None of that has changed.


CarKing the 6th of the Abrahamic Caliphate

Brand can u update the country page so im uk?

Spellcheck is the epitome of human inginuity

I suggest there should be a limit for how many units you can put in a single stack. maybe 30

to prevent godstacking which would be very unfair for smaller nations.

Stay Sweet!

Objection, no more limits than necessay for armies
