On a more serious note, have any of you guys ever read the Southern Victoy/Timeline-191 series?
it’s a alternate history book series about a world where the South won the civil war, and follows both countries through WW1 and 2 as well as the interwar years. It’s pretty similar to the...
As much as I like this RP in concept, part of me can't help but feel it would have been more successful if I'd found a way to force anime girls and magic into the mix.
Similarly, I might try and find a way to break battles down in a similar way.
Like for example, The battle of Washington will have sort of 3 phases.
part 1.) the Battle of Arlington, where we are now.
Part 2.) the Potomac Crossing, the actual push into the city.
Part 3). The Siege of Capitol...
Also, I’m I’m thinking up some battlefields and how to divide them.
I’m thinking that instead of trying to deep dive on every little battle along the front, we focus on the most major or interesting ones.
further more, so that we can actually get to cool equipment, we jump a few months for...

The Setting:
Based on the world of Kaiserreich
In 1919 the Great War came to close with a victory for the Central Powers, and an embarrassing defeat for the American Expeditionary Forces in Europe. This would prove to be a premonition of the disasters that would mar the United states...
This is the Lore page for the 1937 RP, meant to track all necessary details, major battles, political situations, equipment, and so forth relating to the Second American Civil War and the Ramifications there of.
We could probably introduce aircraft during this battle.
this early in the war it’s still basically just all Biplanes, so it’s not far off from WW1 aerial combat.
So here’s my idea for adding Politicians as a role in the game.
I’m thinking we’ll introduce them following the end of the battle of Washington, and each side will have a “good” side (The Radicals for the Syndicates, The America First Party for the AUS) and an “Evil” Side (Totalists and LAF...
It looks good enough! Just glad we can hopefully move again.
in the future if you get totally stuck you don’t have to write a ton, just a paragraph or two is fine.
No, your slightly better armed than usual paramilitary organization is not packing chemical weapons or white phosphorus. We’re not to the Somme just yet.
You’ve got a small crew of standard 1935 M1 mortars packing light HE rounds. They’ll have to make due.
I’m thinking about adding roles for things like Pilots, Civilians, and politicians as we start to get really moving. Just so we have a bit more variety in what we’re doing aside from just narrating combat all the time.
I wanted to know what you guys thought though.
Probably not, at least at the start.
There wouldn’t be any in the military stock since it was one of the countries that signed the banning of it in 1925 in real life, and even Germany was horrified by its effects. So neither side would even have access to it.
Plus any major officers would...
