History: [US history up to 1861]
After the Confederate victory in the American Civil War in 1863, the states that now make up the Republic of Texoma existed side-by-side with the rest of the Confederacy. By the late 1860s, however, quarreling among the western Confederacy due to a focus on eastern states led to tension, and in 1872 Texas and the Trans-Mississippi region separated to form the Republic of Texoma. Slavery, which had been on the decline since 1868, was abolished in 1874.

Texoma defeated the Comanche and Kiowa tribes in the 1870s, and fighting with the Apache ended in 1882. Periodic cross-border skirmishes with Mexican bandits have taken place since the early 1890s.

In 1873, Indian Territory became the state of Oklahoma, and New Mexico became a state in 1890.

Texoma became involved in the Cuban War of Independence, which resulted in a large military buildup and the deployment of Texoman forces to Cuba in assistance of the rebels in 1897. The Texoman Navy fought two sea-battles with the Spanish, losing the first skirmish but defeating the Spanish Navy in the second engagement. 4,000 Rangers and an Army expeditionary force of 24,000 landed and defeated the Spanish in a three-month campaign.

Oil was discovered in Oklahoma and Texas between 1895 and 1905, sparking an oil boom that extended into Louisiana by 1908. By 1910, the Republic was producing 210,000 barrels per year (52,000 bbl/yr in Oklahoma, 9,000 bbl/yr in Texas, and 7,000/yr bbl in Louisiana). Petroleum extraction and refining has become a major sector in the Texoma economy.

History: The Confederate States of America successfully defeated the Union States by 1864, with the government construction process of the Confederacy officially beginning and several treaties of peace being signed with the union, while Abraham Lincoln is disgraced within the Union. However, by the early 1870s, the western Trans-Mississippi region of the Confederacy separated, sparking a brief period in which the confederate government was re-organized into the Federation of Southeast Dixie.

The Federation eventually abolished slavery in 1875, though slavery continued in some households until the mid 1880s. A fierce rivalry with the north also continued. The Federation of Southeast Dixie supported the Spanish in the Cuban War of Independence with various resources and weapon leases, while the United States supported the cubans, though they did eventually lose the war.

The Federation remains a powerful power within North America to this day, with influence over much of the Caribbean and other American powers. Southeast Dixie is an industrialized power, though remains heavily segregated. The country owns the port of Norfolk, one of the largest on the east coast, and is aspiring to expand its port of Mobile into the modern age.

The Empire of Central America (Spanish: Imperio de Centroamérica) is a large nation that is composed of the formerly independent nations of Guatemala, El Salvador, Honduras, Nicaragua, Costa Rica, the British colony of Belize, and the Mexican state of Chiapas. The nation was established as the Greater Republic of Central America (Spanish: República Mayor de Centroamérica in 1896. The Greater Union of Central America was formed between El Salvador, Honduras, and Nicaragua, and the nation was led by Rafael Antonio Gutiérrez, the President of El Salvador.

However, in 1898, Tomás Regalado overthrew Gutiérrez on November 21, 1898, and declared an end to the Greater Union. Furious at the news, the Salvadoran military, with aid from Honduras and Nicaragua, overthrew Regalado and their leader, General Maximiliano Martínez, declared himself Emperor of Central America on December 18, 1898, beginning the Empire of Central America.

Guatemala and Costa Rica both joined the Empire voluntarily in February 1899. (New waldensia this is accurate ok. Guatemala and Costa Rica both considered joining the Greater Union in real life before it was abolished. It's not OP or super unrealistic.)

On July 18, 1900, Maximiliano I was overthrown in a coup d'état led by Guatemalan General Salvador González. Maximiliano was captured the following day and executed, leading to González declaring himself Emperor Salvador I of Central America. Salvador I moved the capital to Guatemala City the same year.

Wishing to retake the throne for his family, Maximiliano I's nephew, Prince Maximiliano, with the aid of El Salvador and Nicaragua, overthrew Salvador I on October 13, 1903. Salvador I fled to Mexico following the coup, and Prince Maximiliano declared himself Emperor Maximiliano II of Central America.

The Guatemalan Wars raged on from October 13, 1903 to December 4, 1906 as a result of Salvador I being overthrown. The series of internal wars ended with the Treaty of Mexico City that granted Guatemala autonomy within the Empire.

Under Maximilian II, the Empire purchased the British Colony of Belize for 2 million colóns in June 1907, as the British saw little use for the colony. Chiapas's independence was recognized by Mexico on July 7, 1907. The next day, Chiapas declared it would voluntarily annex itself into the Empire of Central America. (Los Altos, New Waldensia. Google it. This isn't unrealistic either.)

Maximiliano II died on January 13, 1909, and his son became Emperor Maximiliano III of Central America.

Panamá was annexed into the Empire on April 10, 1910.

On April 18, 1910, Maximiliano III declared war on the Pro-Ottoman Alliance and joined the Axis of Christian Nations.

Government Type: Constitutional Monarchy: There is a parliamentary system in which citizens can vote and elect municipal, provincial, and federal representatives. This is known as the General (or Citizen's) Assembly. Their power is superseded by the House Of Voiavods (House Of Lords) which is an appointed assembly of advisors and counsellors that amend or turn down bills and advise the King in various state matters. This King holds almost ultimate power, but his rights are restricted by the existing constitution. If the King does not serve the people well or does not follow the constitution, he can legally be overthrown, banished, imprisoned, and even executed. This was recently added to the constitution because of Eldrado's previous rocky history. Different political parties are permitted, but Eldradonians are mostly right-leaning and intelligent individuals. Extremist parties are discouraged and are not popular anymore. There are 235 seats in the General (Citizen's) Assembly and 100 seats in the House Of Voiavods (House Of Lords). Currently, the National Conservative Party (NCP), holds the majority of seats in the General (Citizen's) Assembly, with 118 seats. The constitution was created in 1906, after the civil war, in order to ensure another civil war does not occur.

FACTS ON RELIGION:::::

Christianity was adopted in 80 AD and the religion was adjusted to fit the mythology of the Eldradonian people. Medium state involvement, investment, and association. The church is still powerful and many people choose to worship regularly (however, various levels of religious devotedness are permitted). Freedom of religion is allowed, but there are no diversification projects, most people are Christian, and the Christian church has more influence than the other minority religions that exist. Some notable minority religions are Christian Orthodox, Christian Catholic, Christian Protestant/Lutheran, and Jewish Orthodox. The church is not allowed to dictate or supersede the will of the elected government and monarch. They can fund or support their own interests, and they can receive some government funding, but their primary roles are spirituality and culture. The church is allowed to contradict science, but they are not allowed to operate schools. This is to have an educated population that accepts proven facts. The church can condemn acts, but they cannot deal with justice or take matters in their own hands. That is the job of the state and the judiciary’s.

Political Freedoms. Freedom of the press, however fake news is widely discredited and discouraged.

ANCIENT AND CLASSICAL TIMES

The Great Empire Of Eldrado has a long and rich history and culture, with the earliest precursor of Eldradonian Culture and Ethnicity (the Eldins) appearing around 1200 BC, coming from the Eastern part of the Mediterranean. However, until 100 BC (also known as the Rise Of Rome), there have been few surviving accounts and records of the early civilization. What we know for certain was that the Eldin People started as a tribalistic chiefdom, more or less united, with few recorded internal conflicts. There were three major territories and groups. The first group was known as Oamenii Din Munți (The People Of The Mountains). They controlled most of the Carpathian area and were known to be more warlike, backward, mysterious, and nomadic. They did create early, fortified cities at one point, but that was due more to the militaristic advantages gained when having a proper defensive position. They knew some sort of early writing, kept livestock, had metal weapons (Iron due to the time period), etc... The next group was known as Oamenii Din Câmpie (The People Of The Plains). They dominated the plains area of Transilvania and other lowlands in Ukraine. They were more territorial and created magnificent ancient cities with shockingly advanced technologies. The third and final group, known as Oamenii De La Mare (The People Of The Sea) followed a similar path, mastering the Black Sea.

These groups developed their own types of early technologies and brought with them knowledge from the powerful Mediterranean civilizations. Around 100 BC and onwards, while they continued to develop their technologies and culture internally, advances in these fields increased exponentially as more neighbours began settling, contesting, developing, and conquering in the area. The Eldins came in contact with Rome, Greece, Germania, Thrace, Macedon, Illyria, Sparta, Epirus, and the Samaritans. Competing with these nations to survive spurred innovation and a first major unification as The Chiefdom Of Eldin (this unification was lead by Michna The Wise, the first ruler of Eldrado). The ancient capital of Eden which was built in 1060 BC (located near the Black Sea and created by what likely was the first ruler of a United Eldrado... His name was Mikael Of Therapos.... Since then, versions of the name Mikael have proved to be popular names for kings) remained the capital of this Chiefdom for most of its lifetime, occasionally moving deep in the Carpathian Mountains during times of war or invasion. Warfare called for the unity of the Eldin people and it made them stronger. Rome, Greece, and Germania had the biggest influence on The Cehifdom Of Eldin. Language, culture, religions, inventions, and customs were adopted, mixed, and modified. Around this time, they became known as Eldrado.

MEDIEVAL TIMES

When the medieval ages began (The Fall Of Rome 476 AD), new challenges and opportunities rose in Eldrado. Christianity was adopted in 80 AD and the religion was adjusted to fit the mythology of the Eldradonian people. Up until now, Eldrado's borders were severely contested. Romania was the only province that was strictly Eldradonian as Transilvania was constantly fought over with the Austro-Hungarians and Bulgarians, and the province of Ukraine was constantly contested by the Russians and Ottomans. While Romania itself faced several invasions from these surrounding powers, they managed to stoicly defend the territory. What is widely known in Eldrado as the "Age Of Empire" began in 580 AD. This was when Eldrado began a great expansion and development, making the world recognize Eldrado as a power after the successful and fruitful Ukranian Campaign. Because of this, Eldrado's power, influence, resources, and population increased greatly. With its own unique sect of Christianity (a mixture between Christian Orthodox and Catholicism), Eldrado took it upon itself to be a defender of the Christian Faith and Culture by combating the Caliphate invasions south of them. They did this in order to stop the brutal advances of the Caliphate. In response to such brutality, Eldrado fought fire with fire. Vladimir Dracul (Commonly known as Tepes) (1000 AD) was the King Of Eldrado. He was famous for his iron discipline when ruling and his ferocity in battle. He showed mercy when and where it suited him, but he is infamous for his stake burnings, impalings, and other brutal methods of fear mongering. He was later betrayed by a noble in 1040 AD and assasinated. The confusion that followed lost part of Transylvania !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!. His son, Stefan Dracul, took over the same year. Under his rule, Eldrado saw a golden age in the arts, sciences, and personal prosperity. While not being Catholic, @eldrado joined the papacy and their allies on the First Crusade (. ). Led by !!!!!!!!!!!, the experienced Eldradonian forces made their way down the coast in the Mediterranean, North Africa, the Middle East, and even as far as the Iberian Peninsula.

Mid-Modern Period

PRESENT TIMES:

Eldrado was a strong and prosperous nation, knowing peace, prosperity, and growth. Everything seemed to be in perfect harmony and order. However, a family dispute changed everything. In 1898, King Constantine Of House Ion Maier had a disagreement with his twin and co-monarch, Tyrian Of House Ion Maier. This was an odd reign. Constantine and Tyrian were born as twins. However, Constantine was the first to leave the womb. Therefore, he was the rightful Monarch of Eldrado. However, as they grew together, their father, King Berbecus Of House Ion Maier, made announced that they will both be heirs to the throne, both of them having an equal claim and responsibility. He hoped this would unite them, benefiting the country and their relationships. Unfortunately, he was wrong. Tyrian was not happy with having to share power with his twin. They would often disagree and their opposition towards one another further confused the population. The last straw was when the government proposed a series of laws regarding freedom of religion, in order to stop the rising dissent among the nation's different Christian and Jewish Communities. Constantine wanted to see these laws passed in favour of keeping Eldrado united, while Tyrian opposed this, preferring to get rid of these minorities (and others) altogether. Shocked, Constantine publically denounced his brother, kicked his brother out of the Palace, and even issued an arrest warrant. His brother warned him that it would not be the last of him. On March 5, 1900, Constantine was assassinated in his bed, at the palace. The next day, all of Eldrado heard of his murder, none of them doubting who committed the act. In between the assassination, groups of men dressed in black, bearing the insignia of a black bird of prey holding a skull and sword in its clawed talons, with a shield resting on its chest bearing symbols of Eldrado and a quote stating, “Eldrado will be built on the blood and bones of its enemies” (the insignia of Tyrian) stormed the major cities of Eldrado. They were the loyal followers of Tyrian, the Neferiti, and they were there to fulfil his first wish as ruler, find the rest of the royal family, and execute them. Luckily, the young, 16 year old King Mihael was warned in time by his friend and most trusted advisor Emanuel Richter. Mihael managed to sneak out his family. And so began a long civil war. Tyrian began his dictatorship immediately. He portrayed himself as a prophet and a Godsend, sent here to save Eldrado from the evil within.... the impure, the undesirables, the un-Eldradonian. He began setting up death camps, warranting arrests, using his secret police to spy and abuse his people, rewarding those who followed him, and destroying those who stood in his way. Mihael hid in the mountains. There, he gathered the support of loyal Eldradonians and began freeing citizens from the death camps, attacking cities, disrupting communications, raiding supply transports, and doing whatever they could to damage Tyrian’s reign. Mihael left a clear message that the throne would never be Tyrian’s. Golden Birds Of Prey replaced the Black ones. The Crows, Tyrian’s supporters retaliated against anyone associating with Mihael. Skirmishes, Guerrilla Warfare, and head on clashes were fought between the two, well equipped forces. Tyrian had an army of over 4 million soldiers, most of them forcefully conscripted and threatened with losing the things they loved most. Mihael had around 2.5 million soldiers, but most of the country supported his claim. BATTLES

The Battle For Eden was most probably the final decisive blow against Tyrian’s reign. Here, the two forces met head on in the surrounding country side, Mihael being forced to do so because they were routed by enemy reinforcements. They were sandwiched between the reinforcements and the city’s soldiers. Mihael had a force of around 300,000 men. Tyrian trumped his force, as he brought with him 800,000 men, die hard, and loyal Crows. The battle seemed lost, and it seemed as though a dream of a free Eldrado, would never be heard of again. But Mihael never gave up. He would not let the dream die with him. He rallied is forces near the twin bridges (bridges going over the rivers Imperium and Gladses), on the outskirts of the city. He and his men had a few hours of preparation before they would be sandwiched. Mihael told his men to ready their bayonets, ready their rifles, carbines, semi automatic weapons, clean their artillery, and tend to their horses. 150,000 of Mihael’s men were on foot. 100,000 manned the artillery. And 50,000 were on horseback. 500,000 of Tyrian’s men were on foot. 250,000 were on horse back. And 50,000 of them were lagging behind, the ones who were supposed to set up and man the artillery. King Mihael had the defensive advantage. And he used it well. He dug deep trenches, rigged the bridges to explode, and hid his horsemen in the surrounding forest. When the enemy approached, a fog set on the scene. Mihael used this to his advantage. Blowing bugles and hitting drums, Mihael created the illusion of wielding a larger force.

History: (WIP)
[Roman Empire History the same until 476 AD]
The Western Roman Empire continued to spiral into the void as the Germanic tribes kept the Western Roman Empire under high pressure. Finally, a Roman royal, Alessandro, from Italy led a coup on government officials in that region. This would officially split off the Western Roman from the Italian region. This new nation would become known as The Holy Empire of Viridus. Alessandro set up the position of Rexileus, the first Rexileus would not be Alessandro; however, his brother Agoston would take control of the newly created Empire. Shortly after the fall of the Western Roman Empire, Viridus would have to hold off against the same Germanic Tribes that destroyed the Roman Empire. Luckily, Viridus was able to pinch the enemy off at the Alps. A few years later the Germanic tribes ceased their assault on Viridus.

-Skip a few hundred years, everything is fine, a large period a rebuild, blah blah blah...-

Relations were already not very good with France as Augusto II came to power in Viridus in the late 1790s, but in 1803 at the start of the Napoleonic Wars it was made clear that Viridus would have to hold strong against the French Empire. The French Empire would organize a massive assault on the Viridusian Border; however, through hundreds of years of rebuilding after the fall of the Roman Empire, Viridus had set up major defenses in the Alps. Viridus was able to successfully defend the Fatherland and the French Empire was forced to pull out it's remaining troops after they suffered major casualties.

History: The celtic peoples of these lands were tired under Norse and English rule and in the revolution of 1900 they overthrew there overlords and declared James,a leader of the revolution in Scotland, King,compromising a Scottish king with an Irish capital city.This country is split between a hardline anti Anglo faction who want war with England and a more sensible art who only want England as a trading partner. The country is divided,but the leaders do a good job with dissent as there is a common enemy 'England' and cultural similarities between the groups. Like the Austro Hungary empire,2 groups dominate the Irish and the Scots,but there the same size and they both hate the english so there is no big rivalry yet... Welsh and Nordic,and English peoples of the Empire are Anglophobe due to trading links and no ancestral enmity with England,and they construe they majority of the 'moderate faction' in the empire.

History:
Spanish-American war

The Spanish American war started with American tariff, which put restrictions on sugar imports to the United States, severely hurt the economy of Cuba (a Spanish Colony), which was based on producing and selling sugar. This sparked Cuban nationalists to rise up against the Spanish regime. Spain sent General Weylon to stabilize the situation. Weylon sent a great number of people to concentration camps. The US became concerned for their citizens and dispatched the USS Maine to retreive them in 1898. The ship mysteriously blew up. The US blamed Spanish mines and the president declared war. The end result of the war was the loss of Cuba and the Philippines for Spain.

After a failed coup d'etat by Martínez-Campos, the First Spanish Republic fell. This Led to The Restoration, a period in which the Spanish monarchy was re-implemented by King Alfonso XII. The throne was later passed onto his nephew, Ferdinand of Bavaria.

On May 22nd 1910, Antonio Maura was elected prime minister of Spain. The 1909 Tragic Week (a series of violent confrontations between the military and working class) was quietly suppressed, which allowed Maura to get reelected.

By the beginning of the 20th century, Spain was a mostly rural country. The loss of Cuba and the Phillipenes benefited Spain's economy because it brought capital back to the country, which was invested into updated domestic industries. Remaining neutral so far has allowed Spain to accelerate the growth of their agricultural production and raw materials and helped them industrialize.

One of the reasons for Spain entering the war is due to it's naval trade being hampered by U-boats, which has also harmed the nations connection with it's remaining colonies.

On October 5th of 1902, the October 5th revolution occurred in Portugal. In it an uprising was attempted and the Portuguese royal family was murdered. Spain took military action and put an end to the uprising. what then occurred was a merger between the Spanish and Portuguese empires

No God Modding God Modding is defined as "When someone’s character has the ability to do practically anything without limits or boundaries." An example is when they simply cannot be harmed by any and all means other RPers try. Also, no controlling other people's characters. You determine what your character is or does and nobody else's. When it isn't clear if someone is god-modding but an accusation is made, the Moderator or one of his/her deputies will make that determination.

Don't argue or antagonize other players/nations

Disagreements are common, and can be handled by a nice, or simple debate;
And more commonly, an "Agree to disagree" situation. In short, don't insult
or purposely rile up another player/nation with the intent to start a fight.

Those are the big three rules but there are some other rules that are pretty self-explanatory. If a nation is found to be breaking the rules below then they will be offered one or two warning followed by a punishment that can range from a temporary ejection to a full ban.

• Do not make your country the best at everything (Every nation should have weaknesses)
• Do not control other nation's characters/military/tech/anything (Without permission)
• No Trolling
• No Spamming
• Take roleplay seriously
• Please keep the RMB in English or add translations

• Please refrain from using one line posts. They clog up the RMB and aren't very interesting. Contact La federacion venezolana or another mod if you really need help writing

• All meetings between individuals of nations (Such as peace talks, summits, or other meetings) must be held on the Discord with a summary of the results posted on the RMB

• Economies are a factor of the roleplay. This means a country like Honduras couldn't afford to build up a nuclear program and countries like Japan (With a massive economy but small military) are still powerful in their own way.

• Please be reasonable, small countries won't be building up a military the size of modern-day USA in two days and militaries won't be in the millions of manpower

• Don't act like you're untouchable and people are stupid just because they want to do something against your country even though you're a superpower

• Be somewhat realistic. Annexing countries is fine, building up a military is fine, starting a nuclear program is fine, but annexing multiple countries in one day is not, ignoring embargoes and sanctions is not, and just being ridiculous all the time is not

• "RPs SHOULD have some sense of time to them, while this is certainly not real time it is not nearly as short as some people believe it to be. Traveling across oceans via boat, rebuilding cities and establishing new railroads, all takes a fairly considerable amount of time make sure that if the RP allows it you ensure that time passes before events happen. With events like building cities, it is a good idea to begin a solo RP which then finishes several weeks later, there is no strict limit for the time taken for something to complete however it should become evident when no time at all has passed in comparison." - Groznyj leich (They ceased to exist but they made this rule)

• Stay within the technological bounds of the era and region. Muskets should not be available in China in 1450, laser rifles should not be in modern day Switzerland, and stealth bombers should not be in World War One. Use history as your guide if we are roleplaying an era before modern day

• WMDs; "Quite simply they are banned, as they make RPs completely pointless. The largest weaponry allowed exists in the forms of cruise missiles or other large missiles which are realistically the only large weapons used by man today. Nukes and the like are deterrents and nothing more, exceptions have been made for terrorism RPs but in terms of War they are a no go.

• Stealth equipment; Stealth bombers and the such aren't invisible to radar, just harder to detect. It will be classed as godmoding if you declare your plane to be invisible as it has x technology. Stealth tanks are non-existent. Stealth Helicopters are equally non-existent, the nearest you can get to this is by maintaining an altitude under radar range, however an entire group of helicopters doing this is unfeasible and would be easy to spot visually. Special forces are equally not ghosts and just normal men, they can just as easily be killed by a prepared force.

• Deployment Time; Troops take time to prepare, they are not instantly in a combat ready status. Before any fighting must begin, troops must be equipped and transported to the destination, allow several RP days to pass before using them in a conflict. Preparation time becomes more null later into RPs as it is assumed that they're preparing on the sidelines due to wartime procedure, however they will still need to travel from place to place and can't suddenly appear as reinforcements.

• Military Size; A nations military size needs to be reasonable and is largely dependent on the type of government, defence budget, current situation etc. In reality the largest militaries during peace time rest at around the 3% of the total population line with it ranging up to around 7% as a max during war. However as nationstates obviously allows for more extreme governments we allow the limit to be nearer the 10-12% margin DURING WAR. A nations military suddenly growing by about 4% or 5% is rather a noticeable change and must be anounced before hand, it can't just suddenly gain these extra numbers upon going into war.

• Engagement Size; Military engagements are not between entire armies, they are often smaller skirmishes. One of the largest recorded battles would be the battle for Moscow, which has roughly a million men on each side fighting, however the battle for Moscow stretched some 600km. A more realistic engagement would be based on Operation Market Garden, in which 40,000 Allied soldiers were dropped to spearhead the assault against the Axis occupied positions.
  Essentially the conflict size depends on the importance of the objective but entire armies fighting is ridiculous, at most several dozens of thousands of men would be involved on one side.

• Equipment; Do not use future tech or post-modern tech. If it's not in mainstream use, you can't use it basically, I advise using a mix of real life equipment from several different militaries if you want a unique military, just bear in mind they have to work together so mixing too many Eastern vehicles amongst a largely Western themed military is highly unlikely to work well as the vehicles will have different controls, at best import vehicles from other nations on nationstates if you want some variation. The one exception to this is with failed or cancelled prototype weaponry assuming that everything behind the design is perfectly reasonable, for example my nation operates the failed Mil V-12 Heavy lift Helicopter, the design of this helicopter is perfectly feasible and would have been implemented into use if it's design had not become redundant as they have other vehicles to fulfill its role.

• Casualties/Outcome; Do not dictate the outcome of a battle in your own post, it is good practice to try and determine a reasonable amount of losses or a reasonable outcome with your opponent, failing this contact someone like myself to act as a marshal and give their word on what the predicted outcome should be. Thus hopefully ensuring a fair and reasonable result is achieved.

• Godmoding; Godmoding is the bane of all serious RPers, essentially godmoding is when you do something absurd or unrealistic. I.e. Holding off 30,000 men with a single commando. This is something you have to be wary of, no assault is flawless and casualties always occur, once again it may be best to contact someone to act as a marshal if you believe yourself or someone else to be godmoding.

• RP Etiquette; It is generally good etiquette during RP to first have a post initiating a clash between two armies, with yours launching the first strike and your opponent then posting how his army reacts to this. Essentially imagine it like a turn based game, you take your turn then your opponent sees what has happened and reacts accordingly. For example if me and an enemy were fighting with a battlecruiser each on the sea and I was the first to post I would describe the fact that my ship had opened fire and simply leave it at that, my opponent would then say how this attack had affected him and follow it up with his attack back until one ship is deemed unusable." - All of these rules were made by Groznyj leich (They ceased to exist but still gets credit)
  

*Punishments are flexible depending on the rating of the rules abuse
