Alternate History NES Support Apolyton or Terrorists Win

Welcome to the Alternate History Storytelling NES, made by Methril (Azale).

This a my first NES, so be easy on me . It is based on a alternate history book For Want of a Nail, a book I actually haven’t found, but I have read enough of it to infer on the nations of the world and their boundaries. The book asks the question, What if the British had Won the Revolutionary War? It starts in 1972, so the era is nearly modern. As for the orders, just post them (or PM them, depending on the level of secrecy), if you don’t post within 5 days, your spot is cleared. The template is very simple:

Civilization
Capital
Army Size
Navy Size
Air Force Size
Economy
Government
Diplomatic History

I’m sure most of you what these mean, but for those who don’t , here it is:

Army Size : the size of the army
Navy Size : the size of the navy
Air Force Size : the size of the air forces
Economy : level and stability of economy
Government : the ruling party of the nation

There are different levels of these attributes:

Military
none
minute
small
average
above average
large
huge
enormous
immeasurable

Economy Levels
backwards
depression
recession
stable
steady
growing
booming
World Class

Diplomatic Relation Levels
horrendous
terrible
bad
medium
o.k.
good
perfect


Tips

Air Force
1. To begin building an air force, you need at least a stable economy.

Army Effectiveness
1. To make an army more effective, try upgrading the economy and pouring some funds into the army’s effectiveness.
2. You could also seek help from other nations.

I know. I didn't plan it that way though.


Okay we have 3 players. This NES needs about 3-4 more players before I can start it.

My Japanese general council have advised me to pursue diplomatic channels. I am sending ambassabors to all the nations of the world with instructions to negotiate treaties of non-aggression. This may be a chance for lasting world peace. I will patiently await the return of my emissaries.

To German Reich (secret) : We may be interested in the future, but for now we can offer only non-millitary support. France is a long way from our borders.

To German Reich (public knowledge) : Our ambassador is pleased with his reception in Berlin, and is happy to begin negotiations over a Non-Aggression Pact.

OOC: Is the fascism of the German Reich of the Nazi kind (i.e. extremely anti-semitic, and so forth), or does it just mean a dictorship? /OOC

To Japan: The State of Israel will sign your non-aggression treaty. We hope that this may be the beginning of a long and profitable peace between the Jewish and Japanese peoples. We would also like to open trade with you.

To Israel : We are glad that you have seen merit in our suggestions. May Japan join hands with Israel in friendship. Owing to the closed nature of our economy, and the unaligned nations filling the vast distance between our countries, we see some obstacles to trade between our nations, in friendship we receive your offer, but careful thought must be given to the moving of any items in bulk. One of our generals has expressed an interest in observing the training of your fine soldiers, would it be possible that you would allow a visit of inspection. Japan would reciprocate in kind, of course.

To Japan: We would be happy to have some of your officers come to examine our methods of training soldiers. As for trade - distance should not be a great obstacle, as long as the goods can be moved by sea. Our ports of Aquaba and Eilat should more than suffice.

(secret)In addition, some of our policy planners have been privately suggesting that we take action to conquer the Suez Canal and the oilfields of the Ottoman Republic, and they would like to knwo your opinion. Would you care to give it? (/secret)

Put an end to popups!

To Israel (secret) : The control of the Suez canal would be a major step to opening trade with the Empire of Japan. We might be willing to underwrite as much as 25% of the costs of such an operation, provided Japanese influence could be kept secret. Some of our large and poweful navy could be assigned to protect trade route as far as the tip of India, but we cannot send our fleets as far as South Africa at the present time. (/secret)

Our General Yamosuka and his staff will arrive some time in the next few days. The Japanese Embassy will suffice for their lodgings during their stay.

Support Apolyton, pre-order Civilization IV

To Japan: (secret) Excellent. It would be quite easy to conceal your part in paying for the operation, as we have established many hidden bank accounts for concealing such things, and it would be an easy task to funnel your money through there and into Israel.

In any case - we are now beefing up our military and beginning to take action to destabilise the Ottoman Republic, and are building up our forces on our borders. (/secret)

We shall order the IDF to prepare a tour of our training courses for when he arrives.

Orders:

Upgrade the army to Large: will be done in 2 RL days.
Upgrade the economy to Booming (focussing on the military and related industries): 3 RL days.
