Sid Jairo's Europa Forumalis: Total War - time for some REAL nation rp

[Maxwell.]

Some of that is true, we are trading land but only for trading purposes, not war purposes.

[Ad Bot]

[Epicduke]

probably because this is alternate history and not "take the largest amount of land you can before anyone else joins"

yeah, most nation rps are like that
i was thinking of making one with the victoria 2 or eu4 map, but i thought everyone would hate the idea of provinces.

well here's your answer then

I just wanted to make a nation rp that wasn't so chaotic (so to speak)

[Jairo]

STATE OF AFFAIRS

A BRAVE NEW WORLD DISCOVERED!
NATION IN REVOLT!

The Spanish, with aid from England, have successfully documented their stay at a new world. Natives are friendly and joyous. There are foreign materials and consumables that would fetch quite the pretty penny to the east.

The Spanish are currently reloading their ships so that they may make the voyage once again, this time with expert cartographers and their newly established conquistadors.

In order to explore the New World, you must:
1. Have a naval base established in a territory adjacent to the Atlantic
2. Discover astronomy
3. Found a navigational school in your capital

Doing so will:
1. Prevent expansion in Europe (your food is going across the ocean)
2. Establish lucrative (and lengthy) new trade routes
3. Improve science
4. Increase your sphere of influence

Alternatively, if you're landlocked or do not have a territory adjacent to the Atlantic, you may send experienced cartographers eastward in hopes of discovering new lands as well. This will, in turn, make expansion in Europe null.

Some primary objectives have been changed!

GREATEST FACTIONS REPORT

Military - The Turks
Financial - Milan
Production - England
Population - Russia
Technological - Spain
Overall - The Turks

[ZombiLoin]

Turkey offers to accept the peace deal from Egypt is they give us Jerusalem and the territory it's located in.

egypt reluctantly accepts

[ZombiLoin]

Turkey starts a program of expansion to fill up the rest of the unclaimed land in the Anatolian Peninsula.
In addition, Turkey starts to expand into Persia as well.

[Mr. Hurricane]

Russia arms it's first rifle company, and plans to arm two more soon. Gunpowder is being purchased from Turkey and Russia's spice trade is going well. The first university has been established in its capital.

Territory wise Russia pushes toward the Caspian and out east.

[ZombiLoin]

A little tidbit but we don't have the tech level yet to make rifles. They're really arquebuses, which are primitive muskets that fire pretty much anything you can jam down the barrel.


This is the land we eventually want to control for now (grey striped)

[ZombiLoin]

wowe poland is actually taking over land for once

[Swat 3]

Wait, so if England helped discover it, do we already have a trade route going?

England sends an alliance request to the Spaniards once more, and asks to have part of the little pieces of islands they are on off the coast.

England has created an astronomic facility in London. Over 100 genius minds are sent their to figure out the world outside the current world.

England expands to the last coastal western area on the English homeland. They also expand center-wards in the homeland. A fleet of ships goes to a random spot of (west) coastal Africa. They settle and make peace with the natives, but they also start to spread Catholicism peacefully.

wait, jario, is this an edited map, because i can kind of make out the border of modern day iraq iin the middle east

or am i being a complete idiot and never seen that before

how forgetin' idealistic are you

secondly

what grade did you get in your history class

[Muslim]

The Byzantine Empire begins to notice the closeness of the Turks. Knowing that they could be a good potential trade partner, we have requested an alliance with the faction.

After finding out that England and Spain have discovered a new world, the Empire decides they want a piece of the action too and goes exploring for it. However, they somehow end up on the west, and take some of the land there (assuming we can) peacefully. It was decided that they would also take over a small bit of land in what is now known as Mexico. This is a great advance for our Empire, and signifies growth of land.

After finding out that England and Spain together discovered a new world, we in the Empire rush to create a navigational school, astronomy pumped into it, and astronomy centers. We also begin to ask Spain if we can use a naval base from them for a little bit. "We really need some of this land."

the map has a lot of really strange call-ins for provincial boundaries

eg africa has some really strange straight lines

most likely a real world map with the provinces superimposed
