well, and the zimmerman telegraph

that too
but neither the lusitania or the telegraph were "inevitable" or "natural" events and things could have quite easily played out oppositely
whether that would have changed the outcome of the war, i don't know

[Ad Bot]

[CypherX]

unlikely

The added US forces just closed the war earlier than it would have had it just been France and britain

[Epicduke]

the us and the uk were close trading partners, i doubt the us would join the central powers

[Jairo]

not to mention increasingly hostile german raids on american merchant ships

[CypherX]

the second Wilhelm was less than competent.

i realize Germany was effectively a military dictatorship at the time of the US joining, but wilhelm the stuffter got them there. i also wanted to make a general statement about my disapproval for him

actually maybe I'll be Britain

[Jairo]

right now I'm thinking of having six major combatants with special tech trees (uk, france, germany, russia, austria-hungary, ottomans) and two additional fence sitters (spain, italy) with other goodies

nations outside of europe will be playable, however, their roles will be to organize overseas supply lines and whatnot to their allies on the frontlines and conduct underground operations rather than put boots on the ground in europe. after a certain point when naval transportation has been improved enough, they may sail troops over as well.

any nation outside of the initial six/eight will not receive special tech trees (theirs will be generic "infantry," "armor," etc.)

[Epicduke]

I don't think Spain would be sitting on the fence. theyre economy at the time wouldn't be really able to support a war and if they joined the central powers theyd be completly surrounded by the UK, france, and portugal.

[Jairo]

crazier things have happened in my roleplays, so who knows

[Jairo]

super early draft of a miniature tech tree

I was thinking of making it so if you research a full section, you get a bonus of some description

[Jairo]

the german empire has been removed from ww1

they are being replaced by greater poland

(you can thank decepticon for this)

[Decepticon]

[Maxwell.]

it's not as if germany was that important to ww1 anyway
they were just taking up map colours tbh

[CypherX]

Britain isn't all that important tbh

they are just kinda bystanders

main players are Serbia and ottomans, Luxembourg and the Italian Connection
