Yeah, that's the impression I get too. 90+% of the time if nuclear war happens it has nothing to do with Burgundy. And if you play as them, the vast majority of focuses/effort goes to keeping the place from collapsing (through horrible atrocities) with a little Bond-villian plotting on the side.

I'm not sure what you mean by that though? When evaluating a government, it seems like the two most important things are its effect on the people governed by it and its effect on the rest of the world. The OFN may be flawed, but siding with them is definitely better than siding with Germany...

Thatcher in TNO is tainted by collaboration with the Nazis (as is MacMillan). Sure, they could argue that it was the best thing they could do for the people of England at that point, but it gives the government an evil sheen and an adverserial attitude towards the people. Anybody in the UK...

It sounds like our illustrious reviewer argues with people over Motext about Trafalgar. So there seem to be Internet forums/chat rooms. It's nice to know that some things are basically the same over in Timeline L - though apparently it took longer for the hex grid to catch on over there.

Heck, if I were an American in the TNO universe I would find the moon landing hard to believe. Country lands on the moon then falls into civil war less than 2 years later? Seems like that moon landing was probably fake.

I think a peace without nuclear war is possible with current mechanics? If Goering's Germany doesn't win its war within a set period of time, they have an economic collapse and have to sign a white peace. So all you have to do as the US is hold out and make sure Germany doesn't actually get a...

He does still try and institute polygamy, and his advisors are like "what are you doing, the public really doesn't want polygamy."

I really like the British Commonwealth flag. It's ugly in a cute way, like a British bulldog :D

If TNO was in the SCP timeline, Himmler would probably be able to use a Keter-class anomaly to cause an apocalypse by like 1964. It'd be a short game ;)

South African War is the biggest conflict in terms of land area involved. Well either that or the two halves of Russia's final showdown I guess.

Yeah, I'm glad Heydrich never wins because it'd just ruin your game. I haven't seen Speer win, though I've tried to help him as US and as Iberia.

I have definitely seen Goering win, probably like 1/3 of the time. AI Speer and Heydrich have never won for me. As for smaller divisions, I wonder if it would help if small nations had some "micro templates" with just 2 infantry brigades, for example. Then they could more easily form a line...

I think Burgundy tests above ground near the Swiss border, because Himmler is just awful. Italy probably tests deep in Southern Libya.

Oof, yeah. Though we can hope it'd have Russian trolls instead. Shitposting is preparation for the G R E A T T R I A L.

That plus hold off a long time with Nixon before passing or vetoing the Civil Rights Act. Passing it strengthens the NPP-FR while if he vetoes it the NPP-C gets stronger. But just ignoring the issue pisses off everybody think.

Though it doesn't really have an analog to the Chinese intervention in Korea pushing the UN back before the eventual stalemate. That would be if Germany finished up its civil war and could send over divisions I guess.

I've seen Goring win a couple times. Usually the AI falls apart either partway through War Plan 0 or early in War Plan A. One time Goring declared war on the US for some reason and I was sure it was The End. But then they white-peaced after a few months.

Wasn't futurism really sexist and anti-feminist from the start though?

Yeah, even total chaos is way better than Nazi colonialism. Of course out of character I know that Nazi rule in Africa is collapsing in like 6 months after the war ends anyway...

I got Bennett's main trees done, just not all the side stuff. By the end of term 2 the US was basically a one-party state. There were like 65 Republicans, 10 Democrats and 23 NPP-FR Senators. The NPP was purely a regional party of Southern racists and the Democrat half of the R-D was moribund.
