I'm always up for the chance to run another country into the ground.

[Sheb]

Ok, rules are up. Apart from a few minor changes, the only difference is that I decided to introduce navies (A European map simply has too much water to ignore them.) They can be built from Armies at a port and used to transport armies across the sea like in Diplomacy, and of course to fight other navies.

I'll put up the map later today, and then sign-up can begin!

[Haspen]

Your time limit is wonky, it uses 250 turns on 10 turn/year count. Other than that I see no glaring errors. We will see how navies work!

[Ultimuh]

I'll reserve this spot for my glorious nation.
I will work on it when I get home.
However I WILL be the color orange.

Spoiler: Under Construction (click to show/hide)

Name: Try to match it to your government, I guess
Leader's Name: Name here (username here)
Government Type: One of the four available, see 'Nation Traits'
Traits (Points left): Remember, you must have 0 or more points left
Capital Province #: Needs to have at least 3 Provinces adjacent to it (Mountain Passes/Water Crossings count), check the map link below.
National Color: ORANGE
History: Purely for fluff purposes, no need to go verbose if world-building isn't your forte

[Sheb]

Oh, not that it matters, I don't see this game lasting 250 turns anyway. :p

[Ultimuh]

Well, we might need a map in order to know how to form our nations.
No use making a country based on seafaring when it's located in the mountains.

[Sheb]

Yeah, I'm working on it. I'm basing it on a Diplomacy map, with about twice as many provinces. So even if you can't pick a province right now, you can at least decide to settle in France, or the UK, or Serbia, or Turkey, or whatever and plans accordingly.

Color : Red

Spoiler: Under Construction (click to show/hide)

- Traditional : +1

Capital Province #: 4

Note:

How many provincial improvements can we build in a turn? The governement types imply it is just 1, while the PI section says it's 3.

[Haspen]

It should be 1; I've lowered it in new rules (that Sheb received) because Railroads and Trade Treaties now give PI boosts as well.

As for my sheet:

Spoiler: The State of Eastern Prussia (click to show/hide)

Name: The State of Eastern Prussia
Leader's Name: Ulrich Adalbert von Eisenbaum-Braunschwert (Haspen)
Government Type: Dictatorship
Traits (5-[2-1+0+1+2+1] = 0!): Tiny, Developed, Adequate, Militaristic, Enlightened
Capital Province #: None yet but somewhere in Eastern Prussia, coastal Poland, Lithuania etc.
National Color: As close as to this color (RGB: 7799BB)
History: With the Empire in shambles, the eastern prussian landlords have united under the leadership of proggressive industrialist, Adolf Roteschwein. Unfortunately, he was also a power-crazy man and quickly developed own militia and secret police, changing a republic of few into a state of One. When Adolf suddenly died (rumors of arsenic poisoning ran around for a while), Ulrich Adalbert von Eisenbaum-Braunschwert, Chief of Homeland Affairs and Security, was choosen as the new leader. With more moderate approach on internal politics, he gained support of those previously terrified of Adolf; intellectual elites, foreign capitalists and ethnical minorities. He still maintains discipline amongst citizenry and officials alike, as well as militaristic - even expansionist - outlook on continental politics and the future of Europa itself.

[Sheb]

Right. I decided to allow 2 PI/turns, 3 for Dictatorship/Democracy. 1/turn seems... Way too low.

[Haspen]

You might be right on that one v:

* Haspen adjusts his own rules too.

[a1s]

Name: Russian Empire
Leader's Name: Pervyy minister Stolypin (a1s)
Government Type: Republic (Constitutional monarchy based on the British model)
Traits (0 Points left): Enormous (4), Modernized (2), Traditional (-1), Adequate Army(0)
Capital Province #: There's no map, but presumably SaintPetersBurg.
National Color: Blue (I was going to go with EU Olive, but apparently we should stay out of the greens)
History: Having survived the assassination attempt, Alexander II has introduced a more democratic system of government, while funding railroad construction. Although this course of action has somewhat slacked after his death in 1893, it's effects can still be seen today.

[Sheb]

Map is up. Please repost your sign-up sheet so I know you've seen the map before deciding for a capital province.

[a1s]

should we pick provinces? if so, how?

[Sheb]

You just pick your capital, I'll add the provinces later. I'll add number, in the meantime, use the real-life name or something.
