The Unification Wars (Warhammer 40K)
- Thread starter Old Guard
- Start date
- OOC
Ok, our first major battles are coming up. So what I need from the involved players are what troops they are sending and a generalized plan of attack. Of course the actual results will be determined by the rolls of the units. I'd like to do this tonight, but would vastly prefer all involved players be there to conduct there own rolls.
If needed I'm more than willing to postpone the battles/results for a day, and if needed I can roll for players who can't/don't want to.

Would it be too late to join this game as the Kingdom of Britonnica?
Sure, Albia is also open. In fact I think ever Eruopa Nation is open.

Yeah, I was actually looking at Albia first, but ended up deciding to go with Britonnica instead for a couple reasons.
Will be posting turn tomorrow, also all Discord links seem expired.

Awww all the countries I would have wanted to play are taken. 
Is Uralia and Roma still free?
As an aside the countries seem low-tech for what are post-DAOT technobarbarians. My impression from the lore is that the Emperor's goods or genetic engineering wasn't awfully out of place during the Unification Wars. With the exception of power armor and lightning claws, you've put them on the lower end for what a Civilized World would have in M41. Will there be archeotech that can be discovered?

We do deserve to exist.
Uralia and Roma are both free, though seeing how we don't have many nations in Europa doing anything, Roma might be preferred. Though this is biased since I'm playing as the Caucasus.Awww all the countries I would have wanted to play are taken.

Tech I think it depends on the nation. For example, pretty much the entire Caucasus military is made out of genetically-engineered troopers, while Merica has what's essentially a Field Army of Baneblades. But nations like Soudafrika and Ursh are known for being low-tech by the standards of the Unification Wars IIRC.

Cool, I'll be hanging out in the Combat chat on Discord for the next few hours.

Both of those nation are free and available.
Tech varies between nations, there are some really good genetically enhanced and cybernetic enhanced troops running around.
Roma is Italy, Spain and Portugal. Uralia is...Belarus, Finland, Slovakia and Poland?
I understand but to be fair, we wouldn't be neighbors if I chose Uralia.
What about Roma and Uralia? What would they be like? If it's too spoilery you can PM me. I like the idea of playing a country that is supposed to be easy to defend and has advanced weapons, but there is the appeal of playing the 30k Neo-Roman Papal State.

I think Uralia is supposed to be the Ural Mountains, or whatever is left of them after the massive terraforming that Earth clearly underwent during the DAOT.
I think the Terrawatt Clan is supposed to be from there. . .
Then you want to play Uralia, thats its whole thing.
Roma is ruled by a theocratic priesthood of an offshoot of Catholicism that we would not recognize at all. Roma's whole deal is that is a major diplomacy power, and can influence the rest of the Europa nations becomes a lot of them are the same religion.
They're too far west. The Urals are north of the Caspian Sea. After doing some googling, it has to be the Carpathian Mountains. That's the only mountain range I can think of corresponding to it.

Yeah, but like half the Atlantic was apparently drained. Clearly there was Terraforming that moved things around back in the DAOT. . .
A lot probably has to do with all the Nukes, Anti-Matter Missiles, Void Bombs, and whatever other crazy sy-fi weapon you can think of going off.
I thought that was from the wars.
That's possible, but the names of the mountains switching around or the name being a coincidence for sounding somewhat like the Ural Mountains sounds more plausible.
I'm going with Roma.
Could have been some Terraforming done, who knows? Could just be the names got mixed up. Its all ancient history to the people currently living on Terra.
And Roma is yours. I'll talk to you in the morning about a unique unit.

Just checking, what's to the immediate north of me and is there anything notable about the countries to my immediate northeast, the ones above the Confederacy?
Lost of Atlan Basin Tribes, the Atlan Tech-Oasis, and salt flats.
Those are all minor Skandi Nations, Techno-Barbarian Vikings who enjoy dark rituals, and cannibalism.
