1, 2, 3. Yes, I agree with all three. 4. Should troop numbers be in divisions (like WW2 Army Group RP) or numbers only? (The number of troops is fixed in both.) 5. We can make army forces according to real life. Or we may not be able to stick to real life. If everyone agrees, creator of the thread Karl Dönitz, or you or someone else can moderate it. I can too, but I guess I won't be very active this week. Also, no one is active all the time. So we can build a structure that requires less control (as you suggest) or we can choose more than one officer for this RP. 4. I'm not sure, maybe divisons and army groups would be easier. 5. I think they should be atleast somewhat related to history for it to be fair for all. 6. I would suggest to minimize all need for moderation and when moderation would be needed it would be spread among a group of people to avoid bias. Although decentralising power might be ineffective. 4. and 6. Yes, I agree. The division system is also better in my opinion. 5. Alright, I'm copying your first question : 1918 armies or interwar armies?

I think the peak armies of every country during the interwar period, because many countries demonized after WW1 and many got their army only after WW1. I think the peak numbers would beat represent every country's military potential.

We need to set this number to divide real-life armies into RP divisions. I think the system in WW2 Army Group RP is good. (40,000 soldiers in a division) Okay guys, I'm really not qualified for this. This is only my second RP and Eugene V. Debs is more qualified. But I'll explain what I can. Only a few RPs and the number of RPs joined is not special. BTW, I'll be offline for a few hours.

Okay guys, I'm really not qualified for this. This is only my second RP and Eugene V. Debs is more qualified. But I'll explain what I can. This RP is about the interwar period and I think you should be able to pick any country and Shrimant Peshwa Madhavrao Bhat will add you to the list. This was originally a Diplomatic War where John Marston posted events and countries dealt with them. But now that he's busy we thought about turning this to a normal RP. So my suggestion was that everyone can attack and make alliances as long as you don't betray without warning. Every country would have a certain amount of troops and couldn't get more. For battles no dices or such are used, only common sense. So if country A attacks a region of country B with a 10:1, country B can't magically encircle country A's forces. I hope that cleared things up and if not, you can always ask. I thought i was in charge of the list

Rules: 1. You do not get to attack with soldiers, unless allowed (Example : Proxy Wars) 2. John Marston will post some events and countries must deal with each situation accordingly. 3. It can/cannot be historically accurate. 4. The situation of crisis will continue until both the sides reach a consensus. 5. To join the opposite alliance, you will have to wait until 2 events. Any informal alliance made will result in deduction of popularity points by 1. 6. You start with 75 popularity points. To gain popularity points, you must win the so called "Events". First country/Alliance to get to 100 wins. It will be rated on 1-5 points, depending on the severity of the event and the way it is dealt with. Points will be issued by John Marston . In case of a disagreement, you can put forward your argument to John Marston . 7. Neutrals have the time to join any block in the beginning. However, they will have to wait for 2 events if they want to switch the alliance once the first event starts. Only exception are the ones who join late. Sides: Allies: France- Britain- Eugene V. Debs Japan- Francisco Franco Italy- Shrimant Peshwa Madhavrao Bhat Czechoslovakia- Serbia- Greece- White Army- Romania- Port Poland- United States of America- Manfred von Richthofen Non-Allies(Neutral): German Republic- John Marston Spartacists- Ottomans- Darth Revan_ Austria- General Kenobi Hungary- Bulgaria- Red Army- Kliment Jefremovitš Vorošilov Mexican Constitutionalists Zapatistas- Thortilla Mexican Conventionists- [Insert Chinese Warlord Clique]- Finland- Jadimir"Not allies" are are not necessarily in alliance with each other and are technically neutrals and they are allowed to form alliances though 2 Event rule will apply on them unless an event (result or anything else related the event) says otherwise. Can I start as Hungry or Bulgaria?

Every country would have a certain amount of troops and couldn't get more. For battles no dices or such are used, only common sense. So if country A attacks a region of country B with a 10:1, country B can't magically encircle country A's forces. I hope that cleared things up and if not, you can always ask. So what units each(or I) will get?

Well you do seem like a qualified person to me and you wanted to join the previous RP.

Anyways, do you agree with the rules we discussed with Eugene V. Debs and Shrimant Peshwa Madhavrao Bhat?

I can post the forces here. I will try to do it as fair as possible, but if anyone has any complains, complain. Manfred von Richthofen, you can move these to the 1st page if you wish to make it more clear. The Red Army: 5.5 million troops The British Army: 3.8 million troops Bulgaria: 600,000 troops Finland: 300,000 troops Zapatistas: 25,000 troops (we could add more) US army: 2.2 million troops Ottoman army: 700,000 troops Japabese army: 1 million troops Italian army: 4 million troops Romanian army: 400,000 troops Austrian army: 200,000 troops (unsure) French army: 2.5 million troops Greek army: 160,000 troops Chinese army: 3 million troops I tried to make it historically accurate and fair for all at the same time. My goal was to have each army strength represent the strength each country would have in the period of 1918 - 1939. The loser countries' armies would be greatly restricted after WW1, but it wouldn't be fair for the RP imo.
