	Alternate History NES (Thread 2) Support Apolyton buy from Amazon

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.

To Japan: We once again submit our proposal. We keep all territory gained so far. You return to you home islands. All other territory is to be libertaed. Britian is to be reduced to its home islands. Israel to Palestine, CSA is to be disbanded and made into independent nations. KA is to be restricted to the Philipines. Either that or we kill ya.

CNA to Axis:

big, BIG mistake. We have seen our allies attempt to negotiate with you and how you summarily rejected all reason. Therefore, we will not enter into protracted and futile attempts of diplomacy, but offer this only once:

Withdraw from our land. Immediately, Entirely. No other conditions, but those must be met in full.


Meantime...

Mobilize in full. Begin anew constructuion of useful war equipment, no restrictions, including chem/bio weapons (don't use unless specifically instructed)

Battle orders PMed.

To KA: We only attacked once it was certain that neither Britian nor Japan was going to leave China, our ally alone. You may continue to point out that we attacked everyone, but only after it was made clear that if the Axis moved to support our friends in China that we would be in fact attacked by the greater alliance.

You have only yourselves to blame. We continued to give warnings and ultamiatums that were ignored. The Reich is the most powerful nation in the world and it is wise not to ignore its wishes.

Invade German and Italian holdings in Africa, if we get what was Britian, we keep it...

to Allies:
Sorry we are late, but there we go...

	Got spare money?

To AU: We suggest you stay neutral. We will not indeed attack you, and we shall give all German holdings in Africa and Madagascar as long as we get bases at theend of the war.

It is either that our destroy your fragile union in the course of what will be the war to end war.

	14-05-2003 12:50									#14
	Suffering from ads?

To the German Reich : The whole world is now against you, even the exhausted Chinese are considering surrendering and turning against the Germans in exchange for the return of thier homeland. You have not the population, i.e. raw manpower, to win against so many foes. The Indian army of many Millions will march up through Israel and save our Jewish friends and allies.

To India : Rouse your armies - take the fight to the Germans!

To AU - Good to see you rise against the evil oppression of the Germans. Our factories are producing airplanes faster than we can train pilots, we give our surplus planes to you and your pilots to better fight agaist the Germans. P.S. Leave the Italiens alone - they have not done anything YET in this war.

To: AU
From: Britain

We thank you for you joining the war against the evil Germans, if we manage to win, we may than start diplomatic talkings about the possibilities of turning our African holdings to you (upon referendums in those areas to see what the people wish)

To: Germany
From: Britain

You may destroy us, but you will not achieve victory, our allies are fully behind us, while your allies seem not so convinced of the righousness of your cause, they know you will turn against them sooner or later.

To: Finland
From: Britain

Are you sure you want to stay allied with Germany?, they are holding Sweden and Denmark, this is your greatest chance to finally unify Scandinavia under yourself, don't be a fool, do not commit the same mistake we did, do you remember, only a few years ago Germany and Britain were allied and we have even fought together against the Spanish Empire, and now, they are turning their evil plans against us. And they will do the same things to you once we will be out of the games, but if you join our side now, we can easily defeat them, and you will off course be granted Denmark and Sweden for your efforts.
Join us, and live, stay with them, and be destroyed.
It's your choice now, but please think of our offer.

To: Japan, Israel, India, KA/CNA, Haiti, Australia
From: Britain

Victory shall be ours! That's all I have to say.

I'll be Finland!

To Germany:
Finnish armies are ready to fight! Unfortunately the memory of our old president isn't as good as it used to be... perhaps you would like to remind us who we were fighting against?

ORDERS:
Grow army
Grow navy (in case you can upgrade two things at once)

	15-05-2003 03:46									#25
	Lose 30 kilos (of popups)

CNA to Finland (SECRET) :

actually, you'd do much better if you joined the Allies. Germany has in recent history attacked France, Turkey, Spain, all without provocation, and of course initiated the current world war, including an attack on their previous allies, the British. And in fact, prior to the current war, they were planning on conquering Finland, and its a safe bet that if the Germans win this war they will resume their plans. You can't win anything of value by siding with the Germans, but you sure can loose a whole lot.

To Thailand : Of course you can have Sumatra, as soon as you join the fight against Germany and China, Sumatra is yours. The Sumatrians only want to fight against the Axis, they don't care with whom they do it!

To Finland: You have our word that the German protectorates of Sweeden and Denmark will be handed over to your government as soon as possible. It is the fact that the Scandinavaian government, the one you helped finnish off, was belligrent is the reason why we took them in the first place.

To Germany:
We will follow your lead as we have before

To Thailand:
"Once an axis, always an axis". That's what I've heard the Brits tell me. The truth is, you can change sides as many times as you want, but the western countries won't trust you. Think about it: if someone had betrayed their friends (who were your enemies), how could you know that they wouldnt betray you as well? Well, that's how the Brits think: if you leave us, they will see you as a possible traitor who might also leave them. They'll never trust you. We are your true allies. Please, come to your senses and stick with us! Don't fall to hidious and disgusting propaganda!

To Others:
What kind of a country do you think we are? Would we completely ingore our own promises to a friend? Stop trying to dazzle our minds with your propaganda, it won't work. We have chosen our sides and we'll stick with it to the bitter end!

ORDERS:
Follow the battle orders of Germany
