Nukes

There is a system of nuclear war breaking out in the game. Any power attacking a nuclear opponent three levels or more below his own nuclear level is able to achieve nuclear primacy - effectively saturating and incapacitating the opponent's arsenal and avoiding MAD.

A nuclear level:

1st level: represents functioning tactical nuclear devices, massively increasing defense against conventional attack.
2nd level: effectively precludes successful conventional invasion.
3rd level: represents a number of functioning long-range ICBMs, allowing offensive threat of nuclear attack.
4th level: represents an increase of functioning long range ICBMs
5th level: represents a massive arsenal of functioning long-range ICBMs, enabling the complete destruction of an opposing player.
7th level: represents ICBMs equipped with MIRVs and deployed throughout the world on a sizable boomer fleet. At this level, it is impossible to saturate one's nuclear defenses.

Deploying missiles to nations increases the chances of nuclear war occurring. At first it isn't too much, but mass deployment dramatically increases the chances. A chaotic world in general also increases chances, as does superpowers having troops firing on each other in faraway conflicts or generally blaming each other for things.

their is now a separate Atomic Energy Level. Which will allow for the building of civic Atomic Energy powerplants. Of course, you'll need the Atomic Energy level in order to create actual nuclear weapons.

So, in order to gain a level one of an atomic energy level, you must, gain access to Uranium. Whether or not the country you have possesses a rich enough Uranium deposit, should be backed up with a claim, which I, the GM will than double check. If your country does not, you'll have to gain access to a Uranium Bonus, from a number of Uranium extracting nations. After an investment of at least 100 Credits to gain access to Uranium. You have two choices. Either buy a license from a country which possesses Atomic Power plants and blue prints to an atomic reactor, or build your own. To gain a license, you will have to pay a negotiated fee, of at least 100 Credits. If you choose to build your own, you will spend a 100 Credits for three turns in order to build an efficient reactor blue print.

Once a reactor is proposed and built. You will than be able to level up, by 100 Credits for each level. Only one level per time can be gained. There are five levels of Atomic Energy Production:

Level 1: Gives you +25 Credits
Level 2: Gives you +50 Credits with -5 Maintenance Fee
Level 3: Gives you +75 Credits with -10 Maintenance Fee
Level 4: Gives you +100 Credits with -15 Maintenance Fee
Level 5: Gives you +125 Credits with -20 Maintenance Fee

Investment (-85 credits, if succeeded gain +10 income each turn with repeated investments in nation yielding more income, but investing more than the nation's actual economy [such as 4 times when economy is at 3/5] has a chance of making the nation dependent on yours; player economies may be captured at a value 50%+ of their nation's base economy. Specify which industry (Agriculture, Textiles etc)

Increase/decrease social spending (-25 credits per turn per level) increases the possibility of rise of popularity, in countries which suffer from malnutrition or health problems, may decrease the negative effects on the economy, each adjustment requires 2 actions). Limit of up to Five.

Raise taxes/lower taxes (-20 credits each turn but with less popular support; has a chance to negatively affect economy each round/reverse). Limit of up to five increases/decreases.

Cultural spending (-25 up to -100credits per turn) increases the possibility of raising prestige for the nation. Spending on cultural events, such as the science, arts, music, theatre, ballet.

Sports spending (-30 up to -100 credits per turn) another potential for increasing prestige and popularity of government. Spending on domestic leagues as well as National Teams, such as National Representations for the Olympics, Football Championships will not only help in potential for success of the nation at the event, but will likely raise prestige.

Use of Nuclear Weapons


Use of Nuclear Weapons, are discouraged, and will result in the end of the game. In order to ensure that the game is not forfeited because of a decision made out of passion. The pushing of a button will not be set as a free action.

Pushing the button will cost:

1st level: -500 Credits, -20 Prestige
2nd level: -550 Credits, -40 Prestige
3rd level: -600 Credits, -60 Prestige
4th level: -700 Credits, -80 Prestige
5th level: -750 Credits, -100 Prestige
7th level: -800 Credits, -150 Prestige

Similarly, the success of launching a nuclear weapon, will be based on random; simply put. The decision to launch nuclear weapons, and to unleash thermo-nuclear war, will be logically seen as a decision to be taken by those who will have to physically push the button. Unless, MAD is initiated! Similarly, that decision, will not have been made easily by a President, a General-Secretary or a Chairman. Thus, likely resulting in a overthrow if such a decision had even been sought!

An addition to the nuclear weapons rule. If you want to improve your level of nuclear capability, you must grant a 100 credits on top of the level up, in order to ensure that the research into the higher level will be successful in gaining you the level you desire. A 100 credits will be the static price for all research per level. In addition research must be coordinated with testing of nuclear device.

A single test of a nuclear weapon will be 50 Credits, and must occur within a territorial domain of the country you current control. The United States may use the Marshall Islands, France the Atoll, the United Kingdom current domains, and the Soviet Union may use its own Republics permitted that they do not contain a population within it. If you are to undertake tests outside of your own territory, on top of the 50 credits, another surcharge of 50 must be paid to the Domain you will be testing on.

Their is a potential for environmental damage to the economy, whether the test is done: underground, underwater, above ground or in the atmosphere and will potentially increase the level of threat!

Treaties


Nations may sign Trade, Defense and Peace Treaties between one another. The action, will result in the expansion of the economy, stability as well as military strength as well as overall improvement of the game system.

Treaties may be signed between Player Nations and Nations-NPC. Falling under the following categories:

Economic (-100 Credits): will result in the expansion of both nations economies.
Defense (-100 Credits): can be fostered either as an Alliance, or a Mutual Protection Pact or a Pact of Non-Aggression.
Peace (-50 Credits): Armistice treaties can only be done in a time of war, and only in Player-Player Conflicts. Three concessions must be listed which a nation must be willing to follow through with in order to secure peace. Other peaceful treaties, may extend to geo-political border restructuring.


Always remember, the more specific you are in your turn reports, the more likely you will succeed.

For example: Instead of saying "Damage Indian economy-50c" Saying something like "Introduce a herbicide in India that will destroy the agricultural yield". Some goes for all actions, including "build economy" and military actions.

[mosfeld]

I want to be China!

[Dimentio]

I take USA

Who cares about money when the world will end anyway?

[Kamerat]

Have to try this, seems fun enough even without graphics. I'll take India.

[Woland]

I'll try my luck as USSR here, since I was kicked out as them in the other game.

[Raúl Duke]

I'll be either Iran or Japan...
Perhaps Iran since it might get interesting later on...

[Jack]

Have to try this, seems fun enough even without graphics. I'll take India.

India was called before, sorry you'll have to pick something else.

To everyone: The list of rules is not what your actions are limited by. If you wanted to introduce affirmative action, go on the gold standard, whatever it may be for any reason you can. Domestic reforms can be done for free, and pretty much any can be done.

[Jack]

I want to be China!

I take it you meant the People's Republic of China and not the Republic of China (which most of the world refers to as "China" at this period in history).

[Raúl Duke]

Statement from the "Imperial State of Iran"

Beginning from the 1960s I, the shah, pledge to eliminate our nation's deficit and to combat corruption within our government.

We will continue to foster good relationships with our allies and other nations.

(Hey can I know how much cash/credits/whatever I have, GM? )

[Kamerat]

India was called before, sorry you'll have to pick something else.

:(
Argentina then, if not then Japan or France.

[mosfeld]

I take it you meant the People's Republic of China and not the Republic of China (which most of the world refers to as "China" at this period in history). Of course.

[Jack]

I'll have you be France.

I still need a North Korea, South Korea, and more importantly a North and South Vietnam.

[Jack]

Well, N and S Vietnam are more crucial at this point.

[Magdalen]

I'll take North Vietnam then.

[Pirate turtle the 11th]

Out of all the options left which one has the most nukes. Il take that one.

[Dimentio]

Out of all the options left which one has the most nukes. Il take that one.

You are South Vietnam?

[Faust]

I'll take North Korea =]

[Kamerat]

France grants the people of Algeria independence, and urge other colonial powers to release their colonies too.

[Faust]

He said North Vietnam.

[Kamerat]

I thought you said North Vietnam too, was so much talk of Vietnam. But i quickly edited it in hope that noone saw it, your to fast.:blushing:

[Bright Banana Beard]

Can I take Syria?

[Pirate turtle the 11th]

You are South Vietnam?

Do i have a nuke(s)

if so then yes.

[Kamerat]

Sounds like Comrade Joe wants to end the game before it even has started.

[Raúl Duke]

Sounds like Comrade Joe wants to end the game before it even has started.

I think he does.

I remember someone doing this in the last game I played...it always has to happen in the game I play.

[Jack]

France grants the people of Algeria independence, and urge other colonial powers to release their colonies too.


You fail, that goes in your turn report which will be sent out once I have enough people. Secondly it's a stupid descision to just give it up for nothing.

[Jack]

Can I take Syria?

In 1961 Syria was a part of the United Arab Republic, which was a union of Egypt and Syria. But Syria wants to split off (IRL they did in 1962) do you want to be the UAR?

[Kamerat]

You fail, that goes in your turn report which will be sent out once I have enough people. Secondly it's a stupid descision to just give it up for nothing.
Ok, but i dont think France is entitled to demand anything from Algeria after occupying it for 132 years.

[Jack]

Ok, but i dont think France is entitled to demand anything from Algeria after occupying it for 132 years.

You're taking a Leftist position, not a de Gaul position.

[Dimentio]

Ah ha ha ha

I am going to create a world of peace :)

[Kamerat]

You're taking a Leftist position, not a de Gaul position. If we have to stay in character all the time it would not be a game, just reenactment of the past.

I am going to create a world of peace http://www.revleft.com/vb/../revleft/smilies/001_smile.gif Im with you.

[Jack]

Well that makes it a really unrealistic game. If there was no conflict there would be no game. If we all played as Leftists this game would be boring as hell and peaceful as hell. What if the US adopted a Socialist economy? Then the entire point of the game would be lost.

It's not just reenacting history to roleplay, which is what this game entails.

[amandevsingh]

Nehru, FUCK! I thought I was gonna be someone kool :crying:

It is never boring when I am around. I would assure you that.

[Jack]

Nehru, FUCK! I thought I was gonna be someone kool :crying:

Nehru is definitely one of the most interesting Indian leaders! After Matama and Indira Ghandi he's the most notable. He did pretty much oversee the "left" of the INC too, which puts him a step up from the rest of India's leaders.

I would give you some advice if you didn't try and shoot me in the 1985 game, douche :tongue_smilie:.

[Bright Banana Beard]

I will take United Arab Republic.

[Dimentio]

Has someone taken South Vietnam?

[Jack]

Has someone taken South Vietnam?

Nope, but if I can just get that and a Warsaw Pact nation we'll start.

[LeninBalls]

Ok then I'll be East Germany.

[Dimentio]

Can we not drop South Vietnam? It was not so much SV vs NV as US vs NV anyway. :(

[amandevsingh]

I have issues with all of those leaders, Indira and Mahatmaji, in particular. Mahatma fought against black rights in South Africa, and Indira fired on the Golden Temple, a cool place to visit. Also this sparked a genocide.

Lol, you tried to kill me too. :thumbup:

[Dimentio]

South Vietnam? Anybody?

[Pirate turtle the 11th]

Il be south vietnam.

[Jack]

West Germany and the game starts.

[Jack]

Actually, it could start now, though if anyone else wants to join feel free to PM me. I'm sending the turn reports out now. Remember, the more specific and realistic you are the more likely you'll succeed.

[Jack]

Turns are all out!

[Il Medico]

*In Brazil*
The President has announced that Brazil will begin to build a reactor. He also imposed taxes on foreign oil and funded the ethanol industry. On the culture front, the President poured money into funding the national football team. There has also been large investments in the Brazilian economy.

[amandevsingh]

*In India*

India has not made any move yet, but their leader, myself, has just slapped the Brazilian president in the face. :thumbup:

[Bright Banana Beard]

United Arab Republic decided to comb the military into Pan-Arabic ideas. All military member are required to take a test and oath to ensure the United Arab Republic to long live and make Pan-Arabic nation to be fully implement.

[Il Medico]

*In India*

India has not made any move yet, but their leader, myself, has just slapped the Brazilian president in the face. :thumbup:
And at the same meeting, after being slapped by Nehru, the Brazilian president (a Brazilian Jujitsu master) made the Indian president cry for mercy and bark like a dog. :thumbup1:

[Jack]

If it's not in your turn report, it didn't happen, BR.

[Raúl Duke]

From the Imperial State of Iran,

Your government has now begun to take the steps to eliminate the deficit and build up our economy by focusing in the heavy industry/manufacturing sector. We are putting some investment to improve our existing oil refineries and to stimulate the formation of a national automobile maker (Iran Khodro), plus whatever is left will be use for mining operations (of copper). We hope for success.

International Security, Democracy and the Western Hemisphere
A hope for peace in our time
By John F Kennedy

http://chandrakantha.com/articles/indian_music/filmi_sangeet/media/1961_Kennedy2.jpeg

"Ladies and gentlemen. Fellow citizens of America. Fellow inhabitants of Earth.

There lies great challenges in our time, but also great hope. Never before has mankind had two options so vastly differentiating.

Either, we will face Nuclear Holocaust, a barren arid wasteland were the remnants of mankind will hutter in ruins and despair.

Or we will enter a new golden era, an era of abundance, perpetual peace and joy. All which we are lacking today is determination.

The cost of all our conventional and non-conventional military forces taken together, would undoubtly be able not only to feed and cloth every child on planet Earth, but to give every child a university education.

All human beings, no matter their origin, deserve an opportunity to be able to serve and to uphold their communities. Every human being is equally invaluable and deserving of clothing, housing, education, recreation and a honest job.

It is my deepest conviction that we by the end of this century could - nay should - overcome the scourge of poverty, dictatorship and the threat of nuclear warfare.

The existential threat of communism against mankind should not be underestimated. The Soviet Empire, with its many satellites, represents in itself an obstacle to the new renaissance which we will bring upon Earth.

Bear in mind that these United States do not wish war to be waged upon any child of Earth. We stand together with all peoples wishing to be independent and free, and to respect the independence of others.

We are a freedom-loving nation, and we do not undertake offensive warfare operations. The United States of America has never ever started a war of conquest, and would never ever, read my lips, attempt to annex other territories by force.

But to be peace-loving and generous by nature, could not motivate a weak stance on existential threats. By caving in to Soviet demands, we will jeopardize not only the American people but the people of all the world and all future generations.

When the dictator of Cuba, Batista, was overthrown by the people, many of us here in the United States cheered, as we held hope that the Cuban people would be free to chose to establish a democratic state honouring the principles of the great Martí, the liberation war hero of Cuba.

But, the Cuban people was betrayed! Betrayed by the power-hungry clique around Fidel Castro which has taken away the public utilities of the Cuban people from the starving children, creating a dictatorship supported by Russian advisors and communist weapons! Castro has even, in order to install terror into the Cuban people, distributed poisoned icecream to Cuban children!

The United States cannot allow Cuba to turn into a bridgehead of Soviet imperialist aggression against all the nations and peoples of the western hemisphere. In order to defend the integrity, liberty and peace in the Carribbean and to help the Cuban people in their democratic process, the United States of America has been compelled to undertake an intervention in Cuba.

We are not coming as conquerors, we are coming as liberators. And this time, we will not abandon the children of Cuba, but will help them rebuild the land which has been turned into a desolate wasteland by the Castro regime.

May God bless America, Cuba and all the children of Earth."

President John F Kennedy

[Woland]

Hold on.


I'm deploying nukes to Cuba.

[LeninBalls]

Actually disregard what I said, I'm still playing due to peer pressure.

[Il Medico]

*On Cuba*
Brazil condemns the US 'intervention' in Cuba. This is a blatant act of aggression, against a populist revolution which has successfully, despite American efforts, overthrown a vile dictator. The supposed cruelty presented by Mr. Kennedy is nothing more than a cruel lie, a pretext to expand AMERICA'S IMPERIAL INTEREST into Latin America again. We have seen nations and leaders and thousands of people brutally oppressed by the USA, in Guatemala, in Colombia. All in the name of "Freedom".

Mr. Kennedy, I ask you this, "How do you say your giving them freedom, when that freedom is being force on to them against their will? I don't know about in the United States, but in Brazil, that is not called freedom, rather oppression".

The Nation of Brazil will not stand idly by while America continues her abusive relationship with Latin America. Brazil calls for sanctions against the United States in the UN. Calls on the USSR to defend Cuba's right to choose what type of government they want, and warns the United States that Brazil is on the side of Cuba, not a power drunk empire based on racism, sexism, homophobia, and oppression of the people, that has the gull to call itself the land of the Free.

[Raúl Duke]

Imperial State of Iran,

Iran decides to be neutral towards the Cuban situation (at the moment) and will not consider imposing sanctions (at the moment). If Iran finds the sanctions unfair (i.e. we don't agree with the reasons behind the sanctions, which we don't at the moment) we will still continue to trade with the Cuban people.

[Dimentio]

Hold on.

(OOC: Good luck with that given that the American navy is surrounding Cuba. ^^)

Have you ever heard something as vile?

The Soviet Premier has openly stated his intention to put nukes near the United States of America? That is a blatant totalitarian attack on the well-being of future generations of Americans, and America urges all democratic nations and all the people of the world to condemn Mr Kruschev's insanities.

America also has missile in turkey that could easily destroy Moscow, and other Russian cities. Mr. Kennedy's hypocrisy or stupidity is amazing. And the only totalitarian attack I see is on my fellow Latin American country Cuba. Perhaps the American president should take an American history class before he talks of imperialism.

The "Serve America Act"

http://chandrakantha.com/articles/indian_music/filmi_sangeet/media/1961_Kennedy2.jpeg


"Ladies and gentlemen. Fellow citizens of America. Fellow inhabitants of Earth.

I have today signed a bill, called the "Civil Draft bill of Robert Kennedy".

We are the greatest nation the world has ever known, but even the sun itself has it spots. These spots in our society are the prevailing forces of racism, of ignorance, of egoism, of poverty and despair.

Recently, I travelled to Mississippi. The shackles and huts I saw families live in filled my heart with grief. There are people in America of this day, who have no chance to go to school, no chance to get medicine if they are sick, and no chance of even having a roof over their head.

And then there is the ugly head of racism and ignorance. America, by its very nature, is anti-racist. The idea that some people are less worth than others on the basis of the colour of their skin is foreign to American ideals, foreign to what this Republic once was built upon.

Together, we should unite against racism, and fight it everywhere. In America, your value is not deemed by the colour of your skin, or the value of your wallet. In America, your value is determined by the service you are willing to give to your community, and the kindness of your heart.

I believe that the struggle against racism and ignorance demands more than simply laws. The struggle demands a change of heart, an embrace of our unity in diversity, and a realisation that each man is born free and equal to any other man.

Therefore, I have now signed this bill.

Each American citizen, in the age of 17, should be enrolled into a new entity we are creating. It will be called the Robert Kennedy Diversity Foundation.

At least 60 days the year of their seventeenth birthday, each American youth should be in service to help teach children of colours, help the elderly, repair crumbling schools, build decent housing to the poors, and reach out their hands to those less fortunate than themselves, no matter black, white, red or yellow.

God created us all equal.

God bless America and the children of the Earth!"

John F Kennedy

Statement from the Imperial State of Iran,

The movement of Soviet nuclear missiles towards Cuba concerns Iran greatly, it's people are strongly against anything that would take this Earth closer to nuclear extinction.

The Iranian government is considering (currently under discussions) to accept sanctions (to be decided after the 1st turn has been processed, i.e. a decision would be taken in mid or late 1961 or possibly early 1962) towards Russia and Cuba (in Cuba's case a sanction of anything with military applications especially relating to missiles and of oil and its derivatives) unless this "missile crisis" has been dealt in a peaceful and diplomatic manner by all parties involved (i.e. I guess that would mean withdrawing missiles from both Cuba and, on the U.S. side, Turkey).

[Kamerat]

France ask that USSR withdraw their nuclear missiles headed towards Cuba. There will be no socialism or capitalism in a eventual nuclear winter.

[LeninBalls]

GDR congratulates France's badassery of telling the USSR to withdraw their missiles by sending cakes and flowers.

[Kamerat]

France thanks Sie German Democratic Republic for the congratulations, cakes and flowers.

Mao Tse-Tung speaks!

Cuba having nuclear missiles is a double-edged sword. Having nuclear missiles on the island does fend off the imperialist wolf know as the USA, but, at the same time all Cuba is really doing by allowing the Soviet Union to deploy nuclear missiles on the island is serving Soviet social-imperialist interests in favor of US imperialist interests, as they did before. How can Cuba consider itself liberated if its simply serving the imperialist interests of one country over another? The People's Republic of China urges the Cuban people to overthrow the currently pro-Soviet government of Cuba and to replace it with an anti-imperialist and anti-revisionist government similar to the ones in the People's Republic of China and the Socialist People's Republic of Albania.

-Chairman Mao

[Woland]

Statement from the Soviet Foreign Minister:

The deployment of nuclear weapons on Cuban soil will only come as an answer to the deployment of American nuclear weapons in Turkey, that is, if the US chooses to keep them there. There will be no need for deployment if said missiles are removed as soon as possible.

Furthermore, if those who have so far criticized us would have actually paid any attention to the current political situation, the United States is going through with their invasion of the Republic of Cuba. This is completely unacceptable. USSR stands in complete solidarity with the Cuban people and will defend them from all adversaries. All people and governments of the world should condemn the United States and their rabid imperialism, and not attack those who oppose it. Those who attack us for so-called 'revisionism' should be ashamed of themselves.

[LeninBalls]

GDR agrees with everything the PRC has said.

[Dimentio]

Statement from the Soviet Foreign Minister:

Развертывание ядерного оружия на кубинской почве только прибудет как ответ на развертывание американского ядерного оружия в Турции, то есть, если США будут хотеть держать их там. Не будет никакой потребности в развертывании, если сказанные ракеты будут удалены как можно скорее.

Кроме того, если те, кто пока критиковал нас, фактически обратили бы какое-нибудь внимание на текущую политическую ситуацию, Соединенные Штаты доводят их вторжение до конца в Республику Кубы. Это полностью недопустимо. Стенды СССР в полной солидарности с кубинскими людьми и защитят их от всех противников. Все люди и правительства мира должны осудить Соединенные Штаты и их бешеный империализм

And the NBC broke the newscast first to air a commercial and then to show sidelines of cheering crowds waving American flags in Cuba... ;)

The republic of India has had enough of the USA and its imperialism, they are following the steps of their British predecessors.

IF THE NATION OF AMERICA DOES NOT STOP ALL AGGRESSION AGAINST CUBA, THEN THE GLORIOUS REPUBLIC OF INDIA WILL HAVE TO ACT. ASK MR. JACK A WAR WITH INDIA IS A TERRIBLE THING. :cursing:

A quick statement from Zhou Enlai

Ahem, on behalf of the People's Republic of China I'd like to excuse Chairman Mao's earlier statement. He has been drinking excessively and doesn't know what he's saying. Thanks to glorious Chinese technology, we've just received information about an imperialist intervention in Cuba from the United States. If possible and as soon as possible we'll send troops in defense of the Cuban people and their revolution.

I think we should take the Soviet example and try to resolve this calmly.

Iran would not be bothered if called to help mediate this crisis.

I think these demands should/will have to be meet by all parties in order to resolve this situation:

1)Cease (the U.S.) any hostilities against Cuba.
2)Removal of Soviet missiles in Cuba
3)Removal of U.S. missiles in Turkey

News from the NBC

The Californian beaches are empty of surfers, as the people have ran to the shelters anticipating a Chinese invasion. The streets of cities like Los Angeles, San Francisco and San Diego are empty. The one exception of an industry actually thriving in L.A is the canned food industry, as families take their cars, their pets and their TV's to the woods to organise a defence against the Chinese invasion.

The US government has stated that if China is going to be belligerent, the American military is ready for an appropriate response.

[Jack]

Due to having alot of shit come up, I don't think I can do this, sorry everyone. If someone wants to take over I can send them all the turn reports.

[Il Medico]

:(
I would take over, but I don't know how and I would want to play.

[Communist Theory]

The leadership of Cuba has decided to allow citizens to leave freely.
Unsurprisingly a only very small percentage of Cubas citizens decide to leave.
Cuba having shown that the Cuban people are happy with the new leadership and that the Cuban people do not need to be "liberated" by the American gov't.
