(Under the banner of the People's Republic of China) The UK is special, they can be left alone if they promise not to interfere with the rest of the world and just sit on their little fortress island.

Posted July 18, 2009 i think he means the WiB games.. I would like to play in one again but I don't see a point if you guys keep failing to continue them. Well firstly, this one I am running. And I intend on finishing it. Second, I just got back from vacation, so I'm completely free to do stuffs. Third, this one is gonna be super fast paced, unlike the other ones where it took near forever to get anything done. If you have an evil dastardly plot, it will probably happen. Chances are increased in this and all future games to make them faster and actually so they reach the end. Finally, I think I will set a goal. Like "conquer 3 continents" Yeah, sounds good. I think the main problem with previous games was that there was no way to win, as in, there was no rule. New rule: You have to conquer three total continents to win. Antarctica doesn't count cuz its, uh, not in the game. So in order to win you have to conquer three of the continents listed here: North America South America Europe East Asia South Asia Central Asia Africa Oceana Here's a map of the continents http://img194.imageshack.us/img194/3970/zzworldinbalancecont.png Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted July 18, 2009 What are the lighter colors indicating? Also, haha, America is scared. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted July 18, 2009 What are the lighter colors indicating? Influence over those regions. El Salvador has control and influence over South America, China has control over portions of South East Asia, Russia over former portions of the Soviet Union, etc. It means that those regions will be easier to take over without direct use of military forces, and your economy benefits greatly from having control over more nations. Oh and the darker the color, the more you control it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

This is not taken well by the US populace, and many call for war. -Active reforms are made in education, health care and public transportation, as well as other needs of the people to increase quality of life in China with industries that formerly fed America's consumer diet now being used in China instead. -Military enlistments are up to an all time high, with China's infantry forces being the most powerful in the world. -Many politicians are arrested in bars for accepting free drinks, labeled as corruption and bribery. -Emissaries are sent to Bhutan, Nepal, Myanmar, Kyrgyzstan and Tajikistan to improve Chinese relations there. -China invades Cambodia after their leader made a hostile remark at a conference. Vietnam and Laos join China shortly thereafter, although grudgingly, and many of Vietnam's current leaders either step down from office or are arrested for corruption. -The UN condemns China's recent actions, and imposes many sanctions on the nation. However, this does more harm than good, as it continues to promote Chinese isolationism. El Salvador: -Invades and secures Venezuela, forward military bases are set up there. Local gangs are bribed into aiding the invasion by starting rebellions and unrest. -Venezuela begins to tap into the rare gems market. -A demilitarized zone is set up on the border with Mexico, with (oddly enough) a heavy military patrol of El Salvadorian militias. The Mexican government takes this as a threat, and sets up their own patrols on the border. -Disease ridden civilians are exiled to Cuba. Due to corruption, widespread disorganization, and horrible management of the exiles many are able to make contact with local gangs and sap business between the two countries. -Due to tapping into the Cuban drug market and gang matrix, El Salvador also now has major influence over the rest of the Caribbean as well. -Due to recent foreign influences and propaganda, mustaches are seen as a sign of power in El Salvador. The leader of El Salvador promptly dawns aviator glasses, a beret, and combs his large mustache to continue assuming his all powerful throne. -Military contact and good relations are set up with Islamic extremist groups in Pakistan. Russia: -Does nothing. UK: -Also does nothing. USA: -After recent "threats" of communism in America, the US pacific navy is set to DEFCON 2 and a blockade is issued on China. US forces in South Korea slowly increase to double the normal garrisons, and children are drilled on nuclear survival. -American quality of life takes a nose dive into the gutter as they blockade China. -A new world war is seen as imminent by most American people. http://img32.imageshack.us/img32/856/zzzzworldinbalance.png Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted July 19, 2009 I think that America is asking to die...when will they learn that you can't win against China. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted July 20, 2009 I think that America is asking to die...when will they learn that you can't win against China. Firstly, they are a consumer state. The US depends on China in real life to provide for them, and if China pulls out of the trade agreement like you have then the US suffers, while China just has to find a different trade partner or devote their supplies to national marketing. Second, as one of the most feircely patriotic nations on earth, the US will never give in to anything. I once heard somebody say "We'll all die and even then you won't win".
