A Lasting War
« on: April 04, 2019, 10:59:52 pm »

The time has come. For too long your people have been on the losing side of a war that has lasted centuries. But now something has changed in your favor. What was it:
[]An new weapon that can level armies and cities alike has just been invented.
[]Your scientists have just discovered cloning
[]Someone, or something, else has started beating up on your long time enemy.
[]Write in

It is time to lead your people to victory against your enemies once and for all. But wait who are you and who are your people and who are your enemies?

Name:(whatsoever you wish)
People:(any historical, modern, or fantasy/fiction race or species(all subject to OP(my) approval))
Enemy:(same as above)

Going to let this go for 1 more day to see what everyone thinks. (I will generally keep 1 day between updates unless it is unanimous what y'all want to do. Though this is Bay12 so I doubt that will ever happen. ;))

[X]A number of odd chemical formula's with strange properties were created, and their effects on the normal person range from minor effects to something akin to super powers.

Name: Erich Ludendorff
People: Imperial Germany during WW1, currently 1918, 1st of March
Enemy: France, Great Brittan, Japan, The United States of America, Belgium, Portugal, and the rest of the entente/allied powers.

Why not something a bit different? Kaiserreich anyone?

Right it has been remembered that you are President Ferguson the leader of the Brown Brocket(Deerfolk) and your long time enemies are the Hokkaido(Wolfkin). Your spies in the Hokkaido have discovered that they are being attacked by a species that calls themselves Terrans.

Now is the time to strike. But first we need to take inventory of what we have:
Pop:1.5 Billion(+150 million monthly)
Army: 120 Million(+60 thousand monthly)(100% inf)
Resources: 15 Points(P)(+15 Taxes)

And you need to decide how to allocate your budget(Points). Possible areas:
[]Military
[]R&D
[]Economy

And you need to set your military policy:
[]Mass-Deer-Wave(3x more monthly recruitment, Gain tactic: Overwhelming Number)
[]Deep-Defense(enemy armies take 50% more attrition, Gain tactic: To The Last)
[]Fluid-Lines(Randomly capture enemy troops, Gain tactic: Hit And Run)

Happy with how your budget looks and how your policy is, you order your army to:
[]stay on the defense
[]take objective cities
[]write in

Do you try to make contact with the new enemy?
[]yes; say:
-[]we friends please?
-[]die strangers!
-[]write in
[]no


This will be the last intro-update. Updates will be monthly(in game) from here on out.

[X]no, Because their probably turn out to be space marines or something, coming to steal our resources, kill us all, or both.
