WW1 rerun II (map game)

Scenario



 * Ever fancy running your own nation, well, here's your chance to do so!
 * It's January 1st, 1913 and the run up to World War 1.

The pace of history has quickened as the names of T'zar Nicholas II, Lenin, the Marconi Wireless Telegraph Company of America, Winston Churchill, Lloyd George, Woodrow Wilson, Warren Harding, Eamon De Valera, Jan Smuts and Kaiser Wilhelm II became a lot more topical in the newspapers of the time!

Europe is a political tinderbox that is due to ignite at any time. Bulgaria conspires against its erstwhile allies over the political ownership of Macedonia and Serbia is becoming more bullish. The pro-separatist trouble still ferments in Ireland. The United States of America is still blissfully maintaining neutrality as Europe. The Mexican Revolution of 1910-1920 still rumbles on and some other people plot against El Salvador's president, Dr. Manuel Enrique Araujo.

Denmark's import dependent economy, Australia's export dependent economy, Russia's weak economy, Germany's growing economy and America's booming economy all face many changes in the future and may well boom or bust.

It is your chance to take charge of a nation. Can you avoid the horror of WW1 or the Great Depression?

Will you win or lose in the decades that follow, assuming that World War 1, the Bolshevik Revolution, the Great Depression and\or World War 2 actually happen in this world.

It could be possible that all of the naions of the world could avert the wars and bank crashes, or will history be the same as in our world. It's your choice.

Tech level
Technology is at 1913 levels and advances at a normal speed.

Technical note

 * 1) You need to have played a map game before taking Great Britain, France, Germany or Russia.
 * 2) You can play as a vassal or colony, but need to declare independence or show due respect to your suzerain or colonial power.
 * 3) A suzerain or colonial power is responsible for it's vassals or colonies as in real life, unless another player has take up the rule of a vassal or colony earlier.


 * Remember things like:
 * 1) Nukes, chemical weapons and bio weapons are a major force on the battle field. If you want to use them, you MUST NOT GO CRAZY, IT'S NOT DD1983!
 * 2) Nuclear war is limited by a doomsday clause- Maximum total yield per player each year is 5,000 KT (5 MT) and a total of 150,000 KT (150 MT) by all players added together in any one round.
 * 3) The Russian army is larger than the entire population of Luxembourg for an obvious reason- there are many more Russians than Luxembourgers.
 * 4) Don't go crazy since over-expatiation causes trouble.
 * 5) Stay realistic. No daft stuff like Monaco conquering the world in a year!
 * 6) The more mines, oil well, transport, infrastructure, bases, weapons, troops and factories you make, the better, since trade sanctions can stop vital imports like oil, aircraft and food.
 * 7) A long war will sap morale for both parties, especially the losing side.
 * 8) Jungle, desert, small atoll type islands, high mountains, big cities, major forts, major bunkers and polar zones make good defensive lands.
 * 9) The mod(s) decide the outcome from their wisdom, but you can complain if you think it is biased.
 * 10) Plausibility is in use and will be enforced more thoroughly.

We also install several hundred spies in Mexico. They are too lay low and then to use their given set of instructions for explosive sabotage.

That way, if a German vs France war begins, they will blow key forts along the French-German border and supply lines to the border. (End Secret 1) (Secret 2) We ask Spain, Italy, Siam, Germany and Japan to join the "Grand Alliance of Six" This alliance is to weaken the French and British Empires, who, combined control most of the world.
