Era of Diesel: Fall of Europa: OOC Thread
« on: November 14, 2014, 12:41:29 pm »

This is the OOC thread, to post your actions, go to the IC thread.



The year is 1900. Almost 90 years ago, Napoleon Bonaparte came back from a triumphal Russian campaign to face the last attempt by the perfide Albion to threaten the Empire, a armed landing on Belgium. Wellington's armies got crushed at Waterloo thanks to Blücher's Prussian Army Corp striking the English's rear. A month later, as the Royal Navy was trying to evacuate the remnant of the English Army near Dunkirke, a combined French-Prussian-Russian squadron surprised the ships at anchors and sank or captured most of the Home Fleet. The way was open for the Pax Napoleonia.

Sadly, as is often the case, Napoleon's successors lacked his talent. The Empire was soon plagued with rebels. On the January the 1st, 1900, the
Sénat Impérial convinced Napoleon V, the 14-years old weakling of an Emperor to let the Constituent States raise their own armies, openly to fight rebels. A new age of War was coming.

So some of you may have seen Haspen's excellent "Era of Diesel" game. I liked it so much that I'm going to host another game based on the same rules. It'll include many of the modification we discussed, and a few more changes. My changes are in red for clarity.
