Cold War RP

17 Jul 2016, 19:10

We will have a Youtube Series on this.

(remade due to creator of the thread no being able to edit his post)

Description

It is April 1st, 1950. In Europe, the Western Allies and the Soviet Union, once allies, are in a standoff which will decide the death of the world, or the everlasting peace. Germany, a nation which had once brought the world on its knees, is now divided into two countries, as well as its capital, Berlin.

On one side, we have NATO, the US, West Berlin and West Germany and on the other, we have the Warsaw Pact, East Berlin and East Germany. In Asia the communist North Korea is readying to unite the nation of Korea into one. The capitalist South Korea has no intent of going to war with their northern neighbours but may be forced into it very soon.

In London, the British worry ever more about Stalin’s power, and thus have set up an Operation which would lead to total war with Stalin. This is a plan which many have called to radical, but in the matter of total war, they are ready to use it if and and when needed.

The theory of the domino effect has led Truman to begin sending aid to the South Koreans as the looming threat of the North builds up even further. Washington eyes the Korean Peninsula like a hawk waiting for the first shot to be fired. Douglas MacArthur, a hero of the Second World War, is confident he will throw back the communist advance if he needed to.

In Paris, word of the war in Vietnam grow, and the fear of the French losing its main Asian colony has almost come true. As the Communist party in Vietnam has nearly taken back half of the country, and looks to keep on going until all of Indochina is under the communist banner.

Technologically, the US pushes its nuclear techniques and equipment faster and faster. Already America has more than 250 bombs which greatly outnumber the Soviets’, but the Russians have started their Nuclear testing and manufacturing lines, and soon, both nations will have equal numbers of warheads and nuclear bombs, and both will have the power to destroy the world.

The split between East and West has never before been this stark. The leaders of both the Eastern and Western blocs need to compromise where they can and where they can’t, they shouldn’t. The world itself is at stake. All it needs is a match to burn the world.

Rules

No Gold, and if you use it by accident, talk to us and we will figure out what to do (better you tell us then us finding out).
Zero trolling, you troll, you are removed.
The two Admins can and will get rid of you if we see you as acting up, or causing a massive mess of the RP.
Make realistic decisions in the roleplay. Meaning no Communist and Democratic nation being allies.
Keep NATO and the Warsaw Pact together. No one is allowed to leave when they are the starting members, (with the exception of the USA or France if the admin gives a go-ahead), until the Cold War is over. (the admin will say when it is over)
Post as frequently as possible.
Always use as good grammar as you can.
As much as you can, try to avoid WWIII in the first few days of the RP. No one wants to see the Soviets and Americans at war in 10 years game time. That doesn’t mean you can’t threaten it, just try to avoid it.

Special Rules

There are five major nations: US, UK, France, USSR, and China.
Each nuclear nation can build a nuke after timed events.

USA and USSR - Can build nukes from the start of the game
UK can build nukes in 1952
France can build nukes in 1960
China can build nukes in 1964
Israel can build nukes in 1967
India can build nukes in 1974
South Africa can make nukes in 1980 (Israel and South Africa must have good relations from when Israel gained the bomb, and South Africa must still have the partite government)
Pakistan can build nukes in 1998 (China and Pakistan must have good relations throughout the RP to do this)

3. To make sure everyone does run around with nukes threatening to blow up the world, there is no trading anything nuclear at all.

4. To make sure when WWIII does happen the RP doesn't end in a total fire, the non-nuclear pofiferation act will be made alater onto the game which will limit the amount of nukes which can be made, which the UN will vote on until it is passed.

6. Now, many may not know, but China and the USSR weren’t much of friends after Stalin died. After Stalin dies, which must happen before 1957, China and the Soviet Union must break ties. Every once in awhile, China or the USSR can enter each other’s provinces on the border but they may not take a province and call it there own unless they want to start a full war. This means only the provs which border each nation can be taken

Korean War

We start the role-play as Korean War is heating up. Any major nation can get involved, as well as the United Nations. If the UN gets involved, the Soviets can not veto the action to intervene since they were not present at the meeting. No nation is to take land for themselves in this war unless they are North or South Korea. In the event of one beating the other in a single war, the defeated nation is allowed to station troops in either the United States or the Soviet Union, until the one of the permanent countries brings the issue onto the stage, or that country starts a national wide rebellion to free its side of the border.

Decolonisation

Decolonisation was something took place from the end of World War II and ended with Hong Kong being returned to the Chinese in the 1990s. As time goes on, the colonies of each major nation can break away from the motherland and then become its own state, either by planned events or by negotiation. I’ll let you guys pick if you want negotiation or planned events.

Time Rules

-Every day in real life equals Three months game time.

-The role-play ends either when the Cold War is declared over by the admin or when Day 150 hits (assuming it doesn’t absolutely break up).

Though out the time, man has worked togther to survive long term. The ones who work apart suffer, I only seek peace and make each and every country strong as the next, but that'll never happen if all keep walking away instead toward.

Has One man ever made the first flying plane, has One man ever defeated an army, has this One country, also known as Cuba ever commit a crime besides building something to give for protection of there citizens. Can One man keep everyone safe, yes.

Ok. Well, I'm not bad at Role-Play. I mean, I follow the rules of RP I post articles on a regular basis when necessary. But like I said before, I've only been in one other RP so I'm still new to it, in a way.

If I was given the option for a big nation, USA or Russia for example, I would be able to meet the deadline of getting the requested land to do so before the Role-Play started. But saying that, it all depends on how much time you have before it all starts up.

I would actually prefer to be Italy, but if you're desperate for someone to be East Germany, then I'll do it.

I'm not completely sure how you would go about splitting Germany into two nations in a WW2 game, a little confused, haha.

Hope this is good enough for you. Can't think of anything else to write down, haha.

19 Jul 2016, 02:03

Hey, I would like to join but I'm going on vacation in early August, so if I could submit a formal application then and join as an inactive country or join as a small country that was never picked. Would that work?

"Great people of Iran ,

Gone are the days of bows and arrows..... Gone is the age of swords and shields.. We are living in an age where technology breathes faster than the human body can..... We are living in an age where hundreds of thousands of lives could be decimated in a minute-long decision by a world power inorder to fulfill its agenda and spread its influence...
