The what?

You need more of the basics: describe your government, economy, and people. Those are essential dispatches for TWI RPing, so you might as well write them. Nobody's gonna interact with a country they know nothing about.
Since "alliance" implies a military agreement (as opposed to a trade agreement or looser mutual aid agreement) you'll probably need to write something about your military as well. It doesn't have to be super detailed, but potential allies should be able to get an idea of who they'd be fighting along side. Plenty of players can help you with military stuff; just ask.
Once you have those done, you can move on to the next questions:
What sort of alliance are you looking for? Defensive/mutual defense arrangement? Traditional alliance (both offense and defense)? Something else?
What sort of allies are you looking for? Anybody with weapons and a will to use them, or something more specific?
Once you know the answers, you can post OOC to get the IC alliance ball rolling.

Would you mind putting me down for 3 in service? That's what served as the placeholder for my modern monitors, in my military factbook.

Hello
hi
thinkin bout makin an AKIA GE and T thread
Be a Catholic and we can be your friends.
Welcome! Everything you need to know about these Western Isles can be found here, but feel free to ask questions if you have them!
Welcome! |
You must be wondering what you can do here and how, what is expected of you and how to start role-playing… I’ll try to answer these questions in this dispatch.
First of all, if you haven’t done so already – go ahead and introduce yourself on our regional message board (RMB). You can post things like what country you’re from, if you’re new to NationStates or to role-playing (RP), what kind of a nation you want to create, and anything else you’d like to share.
Before we begin, Ostehaar was the original author of these sorts of dispatches. He was the successor before me and was a steady hand of stability, a calm mediator and an expert RPer. He wrote a dispatch like this years ago, however following his CTEing there is was a need for an active person to take over this dispatch into the future. This is a need as the Successor that I have met. Also big thanks to Dormill and Stiura who has given a lot of this dispatch a fresh coat of paint and some small rewrites in other places. This does remain largely Ostehaar's work though, or at least that's what I was told!
About the Region |
IC communication (in-character, meaning when we are role-playing) is done on the NationStates forums
OOC communication (out-of-character, from general chatting to world-building - you are the player who is writing stuff in this context) is done on the RMB and the forums
Telegrams are usually OOC
We don’t have offsite forums, but there’s a “mostly unofficial” Discord chat. It is an OOC space, and discussions about IC matters that go beyond brainstorming or getting advice should be done on the RMB or through telegrams.
We use the NationStates platform to create fun and interesting stories, about our nations, peoples, and leaders. We usually discuss ideas and plan RPs on the RMB and in OOC forum threads, and then co-write them as RPs, news, accounts, information, and history in dispatches and IC threads.
We have a democratically elected government (you can run for office) in-charge of several aspects of the region:
Facilitating RP and promoting world-building and cooperation in the region
Managing the region in terms of regional rules and standards
Recruiting new players and managing our embassies with other regions
For more information, you can read through the following dispatches when you get a chance:
The Constitution – It details the responsibilities of the various government officers and the Founder, as well as the processes of legislation and elections in the region. Of course, there’s no need to remember it all, but it’s there if you need it.
The Regional Rules and Conduct – That’s just… The rules. You know, don’t be a pain to others, don’t spam the RMB, and so on. The map rules are also there, but we’ll get to that in a minute.
The Monthly Report dispatch – Contains current and updating information about the region (recent stats of the region, weekly updates, important daily events, etc.).
Of course, most of us can. If you still have questions, you can do either of the following:
Post a question on the RMB; you’ll likely get an answer not long after.
Send a personal TG to any of the officers (listed in the WFE) or to an active member (ie someone on the map)
Your address for questions regarding specific RP rules is the Secretary of Role-Play (SoRP) (Dormill and Stiura). Feel free to tag him in your RMB post or to TG him.
About Role-Playing in the Region |
Our regional map is the basis of our RP, and it is therefore reserved for nations who actively engage in RP or plan to do so.
To be added to the map, send Ainslie a telegram with answers to several simple questions – they are listed in the Map Dispatch right after the image of the map itself.
Here in this region we don’t use NationStates stats at all. Population, economic status, main industries, defense budget – All of those things are up to you, the player, to decide (within reason, which we will get to later)! Make factbooks or dispatches describing your nation’s culture, history, religion, government, economy, climate, military, science, industries, people, corporations, trade deals, and anything else you can think of.
RP in this region is based on realism and modern-technology, so keep your nation in those limits. There are a few other guidelines we have in place to keep things balanced, for example:
Population should be no larger than 30 million
GDP per-capita should be no larger than $50,000 USD
Other than that – the limit is your own creativity. Feel free to look around and read other nations’ factbooks and dispatches for ideas. See for example:
Domanania's factbook which reveals a system of family-based conglomerates that affectively run his economy.
Ioudaia’s dispatch on his Multi-Role Stealth Aircraft.
Solaryia's History dispatch which walks you through the nation's history.
Najimam's dispatch which offers a rundown of his major islamic handicrafts company.
Baumes's dispatch outlining his multinational aircraft manufacturer Amsel.
Take some time to look around, get to know the other players and the region as a whole, and develop your nation. I recommend doing that before getting into RP.
You can get to the region’s ongoing RPs and events in either of the following ways:
Through the “Ongoing Events and Perpetual RPs” in the region’s World Factbook Entry which can be found through links such as 'News', or 'League'.
Through Ainslie’s RP Directory, which contains the region’s RPs, alliances, and collaboration threads
As a start, I recommend flicking through the recent posts in the regional news thread and posting some of your own, before moving on to more complex RPs. This would allow players of the region to get acquainted with your nation and your style. Another easy way to get going in TWI's role-play community is to see if there is anything happening in the League, our United Nations that for legal reasons is not the UN nor purports to be.
NS is full of useful guides on RPing and writing. This one, for example, is short and to the point. This has all the NSCodes. This thread explains about RPing warfare. There are many more RP guides and tip dispatches or threads around the site – feel free to explore and learn more about RPing. If you're looking for a guide or some sort of explanation of something, often others will know (or have) dispatches which explain various parts of RPing. Don't hesitate to write in the Regional Message Board (RMB) and ask if anyone knows of any particular guides to a certain aspect of RPing.
For any question on the region (or not), feel free to ask on the RMB or to any of the active members.
Everyone who has tried to recently roleplay with me, I just want to tell you I will be pretty inactive this week due to school.
hey there
Borisuelo and Esterazdravo
My telegram isn't urgent; feel free to reply whenever you are available again.
Remodio and Borisuelo
Today I will send diplomats to some nations to improve my relationship, I have diplomats left, who wants to embrace our nation and become a friend, send a Telegram and I will be communicating the process.
King Eriksson II of the Kingdom of Aurorea
Dormill and Stiura and Borisuelo
We were friends previously when you were in the southern sea, I don't see why we shouldn't establish relations now
uhm..
