Nuclear War XXI: "A Glowing New World"
The Rules
Each player starts with 3 cities, and may perform 1 order each turn. Orders should be sent to the GM through:
PM
(When orders have been sent, please post a "sent" msg in the thread, to make sure the GM has received the order).
If you don’t send any orders for a turn, you won't be auto-set to do something (The GM won't deflect for you, the GM won't do anything for you... ), and since the GM posts a msg from time to time in the forum about who still needs to send orders, people can see who’s open for nuking, so be sure to send them. You can send the GM a default order, if you wish, but I recommend that you send a queue.
If you don’t send your orders, there will be consequences, unless you can come up with a good reason BEFORE you’re missing your orders (i.e. if you’re going on vacation tell us BEFORE you leave, not when you get home)
code:
# of turns missed: Consequences:
1: nothing
2: You’ll lose one city this round
3: You’ll lose two cities this round
4: ---------you get Wasted--------
Each turn takes about 24 hours; weekends, holidays, etc. may result in longer turns. (Turns tentatively ending at 5 PM CST (2300 GMT) each day, but this isn't set in stone.) If the GM has received all orders before time runs out, the turn has ended and he'll post the results early.
You will be able to change your orders up until one hour before the end of the turn.
Spy missions don't count as orders: e.g. you can sabotage an enemy and nuke him in the same turn. Each player starts with zero spies. You can send out multiple spies per turn if you have them.
Orders:
[b]Launch Nukes:
The player can launch two nukes. The nukes can be launched at different players or they can be launched to the same player, depending on preference.
Stockpile nukes: *
When stockpiling nukes you can launch 2-4 nukes instead of 2 at a time. You can't stockpile stockpiled nukes, the max # of nukes is 4. You don't have to use the stockpiled nukes the following turn. If you've got stockpiled nukes and want to attack someone, but also keep the stockpiled nukes, you may.
Deflect: *
When deflecting nukes to a certain player, every second nuke to arrive that turn will be deflected to another player (Which has to be included in the orders). The nukes which get deflected is: 1, 3, 5… while 2, 4, 6… will hit
Use Bunker: *
Each player starts with one bunker. When used, ALL nukes fired at you are destroyed (Not deflected), and all spies sent against you are killed. After one use, the bunker is unavailable, unless rebuilt.
Build a Bunker: *
Gives you another bunker to use (up to a max of 2).
Train a new spy: *
Just like it sounds. (No-one starts with any spies) Up to a maximum of 3.
Build City:
You get one extra city. (No more than 5 cities can be built, this is not IPS).
Sabotage (Spy):
When using sabotage on another player, the other players orders will be cancelled. This kills the spy used. Sabotage does not work on energy shields; stockpiled nukes launches that are sabotaged lose the stockpile involved.
All orders marked with a * sign shall be referred to as "unknown projects" unless they specifically come into play that turn.
If you post a "sent" msg in the thread, but the GM doesn't recieve any orders, he'll auto-set you to whatever you want your 'default' orders to be - send them with your first orders (Of course he'll send you a msg that he didn't recieve your orders)
The only orders that can be combined are Sabotage with any other order. Stockpile cannot be combined with deflect, for instance.
**********************************************
The defeat of the American forces by the Chinese-EU alliance was a foregone conclusion since the invasion started. With most of the American army tied up in the Middle East, the invasion part was easy. What the invaders had not accounted for, however, was the amount of manpower needed to occupy the nation, considering how easily its citizens could acquire guns. Numerous factions rebelling against the invaders rose up and defeated the occupation forces, then the factions began fighting each other. The instability eventually rolled over national borders into Mexico and Canada. And, to make matters worse, the former U.S.'s nuclear stockpile was split up among the rebel factions. The factions now intend to fight to the death, and only one leader shall be the OVERLORD of the continent. Or, will the onset of nuclear weapons mean that the ROACHES will get their way? Only time will tell...

Since it's a weekend, I'm not concerned about getting orders quickly, just preferably by Monday.
Oh, and people can still sign up until I process the 1st round orders, if they want.

Day 1: Now's THAT'S what I call a pre-emptive strike!
Once upon a time, ICS was a popular strategy for the first few turns. But, it seems as if those days are long gone, with only three rulers opting to build cities: Kassiopeia built Lubenter, Sparrowhawk built Manitoba, and Exodus Pheoni built Emma.
As it turns out, the citizens of those new cities would get to enjoy the bright lights and the amazing sounds of a full fledged nuclear war, as 3 players launched nuclear salvos. Smiley launched two nukes at Doc, leaving him with one City, and nothing else. But as those nukes were flying towards Doc, he himself launched two nukes, which destroyed two cities belonging to Skanky. As Skanky fled towards his last remaining city, 2 more nukes from Atragon destroyed it as well. The project that Skanky had been working on was of no help in defending against the onslaught from Atragon and Doc.
Skanky now lives in exile in a luxurious home on the beaches of Aruba.
Kuciwalker, Spaced Cowboy, Hercules, the Shogun, and Lord Nuclear were all working on evil secret projects.
11 players now remain, vying for total domination.

Day 2: The Rumors Of ICS's Demise Have Been Greatly Exaggerated
Indeed, the tried-and-true ICS strategy is back in style, as no less than 8 rulers built cities:
Kassiopeia built Approbatur.
Shogun Gunner built Fukiya.
Spaced Cowboy built Fort Worth.
Sparrowhawk built Ontario.
Hercules built Fawn.
Exodus built Fox5.
Kuciwalker built .... .
Atragon also built Delta, and just at the perfect time too, as it was promptly destroyed along with two of Atragon's other cities, thanks to a 3-pack of nukes, just arrived from Lord Nuclear. Atragon's new city had not died in vain, however, for it allowed him to survive to see another day.
Meanwhile, Smiley apparently had not-so-smilley thoughts in his mind when he decided to finish off the job that he had started by launching two more nukes at DrSpike. Unfortunately for Smiley, the wise Doctor decided to bunker this turn. Will his bunkering only delay his eventual demise, or will it be the basis for a great comeback? Only time will tell...
