I like the idea on the condition that we get a better map.

Using the same program I used for the STGOD 4, I could whip something up for you guys to use.

Fuck that. You can't go and call all of Northern Africa and Asia Minor outright. That's a huge amount of territory including one entire continent. Now how about as a more reasonable deal you take North Africa up to say Tripoli-Benghazi-ish and I take what is west of that. Though if someone else wants to extreme west for a small-ish Empire I'm fine with that.
Actually that works just fine. Though you'll be first on the Jihad's to do list in the STGOD.

Also, I think I'd rather only take the southeastern part of Turkey, but everything south of that is mine.

Is the game gonna be human only, or can we have fantasy-esque races, i.e., orcs, elves, zombie hordes?

With your grand track record of ruining games and trashing your own nations?
Hardly...

If so, i'll take a part of northern Russia
They're not technically "isles" anymore (look at the map :wink:), but I called them regardless.

And to be more precise, I'd like to have a grand power (All hail the German Empire) with a professional army and navy.

With the size of my territory, I am thinking grand or medium, Greece, Macedonia, Serbia etc... including crete and the various islands around greece

Professional armed forces, loosly patterned after the Pre-marius romans

I guess i'll take a Grand Empire, in eastern russia, with professional armed forces

Hmm, I'll take a Grand Empire in Gaul.

First, everybody can't have a grand power. Second, even with the territories some of you are claiming, you wouldn't be anything more than a regional power.

Am I the only one that thinks this might work better as a totally fictionalized landscape?

Mabye we should have some sort of "Preliminary Round" where our armies crush each other to decide who gets to be a grand power.

Just think of it, no waiting twenty pages for a war to break out, massive armies drowning each other in their own blood. It will be magnificent.


Anyhow, that's just my idea..................

We need something... like a rough guage of landmass to dtermine what sort of power we are... I am probably a medium given my claim...

I think the normal map of eurpope can work though..

Here's what I've thought up; feel free to rip to shreds because honestly, it may not really fit as it's far more advanced technically but lacks magic(Or we've industrialized our magic.. Depends on your point of view).

Name: Principality Of The Steaming Lands.
OTL Name: Iceland and artificial atolls.
Power level: Medium.
Regiments: 10(5x normal thanks to technology, remaining 20 regiments sacrificed for naval/air units for movement).
General technology basis: Steam power, solid rockets, primitive electricity. Think steampunk.
Government: Monarchy.
Major exports: Luxury items(Clocks, clockwork toys, high tech goods to nobility).
Major imports: Lumber, copper, steel.

I'm thinking a numerically small but quite advanced society who don't deal in 'magic' for various superstitious reasons, and thus try to keep up with radical means of using existing technology.

Feel free to rip to shreds.

Jeez here I was thinking Phalanx formations, with the occasional wizard mixed in...

I am thinking no...
