World War 2 Roleplay - Applications & Questions

I am going to attempt to start a 1939 Historic World War Roleplay.

This is because from my experience and others', Roleplays can be very enjoyable, and the most recent attempts at creating RPs have failed, so I am creating this new RP separate from the previous ideas.

A Rules Thread will be published once there are enough players, ideally, I would like at least 20 people, ideally 28. Since some nations are not essential, and will only become available if there are more applications than countries.

Major powers or important countries will be limited to experienced players to ensure high-quality roleplay, however, you may still apply for these positions.

The Game will last for 70 days before automatically ending unless we agree to finish earlier than this.

I am afraid I have also reserved the UK for myself, sorry.

Blue text means their application has been accepted, and purple text means the applicant is confirmed as that country:

List of available countries:

- United Kingdom - @Zaktty

- USA - @Carking the 6th

- France - @Donk2.0

- Soviet Union - @Fox-Company

- Japan - @Claudio NVKP

- Nationalist China - @Lord Crayfish

- Italy - @The Mister Class

- Brazil - @SamPGS_17

- German Empire - @Talvisota

- Netherlands - @VietnamVeteran69

- Canada - @JASLOLY

- British India - @Lt.Rohini

- Australia - @GeneralTanke

- Turkey - @TheZhukov

- Yugoslavia - @NEPTUNE the great

- Spain - @That polish guy

- Romania - @KaiserOfAnonymous

- South Africa - @Tolol_aja

- Sweden - @noblebright

- Venezuela - @-VIP-

- Peru - @Lady Aragosta

- Argentina - @Taffyta Muttonfudge

- Persia - @SADRA_ready

- Manchukuo - @Amotah or @AleksanderZ was going to be @CMDR. Wolf

- Mexico - @Kadeko

- British Egypt - @Fortnite69 420 was going to be @Joe Bartolozzi

- Mongolia - @Soviet onion republic

- Tibet - @ChessSamurai1999

- Xinjiang - @RookOnzo

APPLICATIONS ARE CLOSED.

Colonies, such as India and Canada, will start the game as subservient to their master nation (UK or Japan), which will be able to boss them around, but if they slowly build up, and Roleplay properly they will be able to gain independence.

The game will start exactly (or as close as we can reasonably get to) as the world was in January 1939. So different countries start allied with each other, e.g. Italy and Germany

time inside the game will pass daily, e.g. each day is 6 months, as it is supposed to be by the research tree, this may be decreased to 3 or 4 month days because I am unaware of how long this HWW Map will last.

Countries will also be required to set their relations to other countries as shown in the graph below.

I just finished reading that poll and wanted to say somethingpeace after declare war is good but to be honest i think 24hr is a lot. at 24hr defender country have opportunity to move all of his units to border provinces and defend at their easily. Since the difference for of time zone (night and morning) for player is about 12hr or less i think its better to change it to 12hrabout planes and naval units kill i think kill planes immediately without permission should be allow but about naval units must be 6hr because some seas have only 1 dot( Of course, you can sink earlier, but this will be a direct declaration of war)

about units RRG and nuclear bomb better to not allow but nuke bomber should be allow but as real life for example USA can build after day 25 then Russia can build from day 33 Uk from day 39 and France from day 55 and China/Japan from day 63 (i started from day 25:1945 then assumed 2 days each year so Russia had nuke at 1949 4year*2=8 this mean they can have it after 8 days)also better to limit it

USA :day 25 2nuke or less

day 32 4 nuke or less

day 39 6 nuke or less

day 46 8 nuke or less

day 51 10 nuke or less

after day 65 12 nuke or less

for example this means if USA make 3 nuke at day 31 its broke the rules

Russia :day 33 1 nuke or nothing

day 40 3 nuke or less

day 47 6 nuke or less

day 52 8 nuke or less

day 66 10 nuke or less

UK :day 39 1 nuke or nothing

day 46 3 nuke or less

day 51 5 nuke or less

after day 65 6 nuke or less

I will complete it in part 2

Ok Sadra, you can be Persia. Thank you for your feedback.

I like your points about nukes, however, while I agree with the dates that they should be allowed for certain countries, in alternate history certain nations may get nukes faster than normal, e.g. if China is united earlier, then they can make nukes faster if the UK is safe from attack and has more resources, they would not need to include the USA in their research.

As for the caps on the number of nuclear bombs, after discovery, countries built more nukes in shorter time, so I feel like after the number of days you suggested, we should square the number, e.g. after day 32, 2 squared would be 4, so 4 nukes allowed, by day 39, 2 cubed is 8, etc.

Your point on peace after war declaration is spot-on, I think we should reduce it to 12 hours.

In part 2, I agree with what you say about rocket artillery, however, due to the large amounts of units players will make, the number of rocket fires allowed will be higher than 10.

Reducing nukes to certain countries may not work out. What if China manages to subjugate all of Asia, while France gets their ass kicked by Germany and the UK. They still get nukes earlier? Just hold it all back to 1943 (allow research by then, it would take 2 more days until 1944 for nukes to be researched, and then 2 more to get it built in 1945).

Thank you for your input, we will consider it carefully as moderators before releasing the rules and a final date for when the RP will start.

As for joining yourself, what country did you have in mind?

If you had any doubts I think they are worth the trust. I’ll vouch for them as needed.

Agreed I had a quick look and all seems legit.

true

we can allow nuke for all countries but like real world

1.USA 2.Soviet 3.UK 4.France 5.china/Japan 6.british India and ...

but Tibet and Xinjiang now are a part of China and they can have it too

also if I'm not wrong Turkey Germany Italy and Netherlands have nuke bomb as a part of NATO but they are limited a lot

Iran(persia) has own nuclear program

Canada was at US nuke program and they can have it a bit after get independence from UK

Argentina from Germany and after few days from Germany can build it

at all I mean all countries can get nuke but some countries can get it earlier

you can limit it like nuke

for example if only 20% or 30% of Airforce or army can be rocket fighters

the percentages are just examples, you can put any percentage

We already agreed to no ratios.

Australia should definitely get them eventually. Heck, the Brits tested nukes in Australia.

but did they MAKE it

make then test

"Hate, union, freedom, justice, equality, war, peace, violence, blood. It is but a perfect mixture on destiny and our lives. It is for the mass we trust and for the mass we contribute, or to selfishly to personal greed we follow, it is up to your choices on what mixture you want. My mixture is a bit of everything with madness and humility in it, the virtues will black and sinful, just like I per say." - Kaiser Luther Ernst Willienburg.

I might join this. My first choice would be Venezuela, but Peru would be OK I guess.

Unfortunately my gold supply is quite low so I might not be able to join within a time frame that works for everyone else.

Peru's Axis right? I've been wanting to play as Axis for a while, since my low opinion of it is unsubstantiated by any first-hand experience and I'd like to rectify that before I let myself get embroiled in arguments about which doctrines are the best again.

I'll put you down for Peru for now, I am sorry you couldn't play someone more major, as I thought it would be really cool if you joined.

Just need South Africa, and then we can begin.

I doubt anyone wants to be Tibet or Xinjiang

Thanks. I honestly don't care about not having a major, as I was out for one of the small South American countries anyway, and I've never done an* RP round before so it's probably for the best if I'm not a major this time.

Also last time I played a major I stuffed up mightily.

*An? A? Does everyone here mentally pronounce it as the abbreviation 'are-pee' or the full word/s 'roleplay'?

If you wanted to avoid such a problem it’s best to consistently spell it out as Roleplay to save your brain the suffering. Considering that you wouldn’t gain any mental break from shortening it due to this conundrum it only makes sense.


CarKing the 6th of the Abrahamic Caliphate

Fair. This is probably the first time I've actually typed it out, and in real life I usually say 'RP' rather than 'roleplay'.
