Separated at Birth: America and Drakia

[generalurist]

@viper23 nice job, though if this is the right ordering something's missing because it gives crits to no neutrals and three alliance members (all Jakarta Pact, interestingly).

Let's see, above China in the alphabet, by common name, there's
Afghanistan
America
Australia
Borneo
Brazil
Bahamas
Centroamerica

Are the Lesser Antilles under L or A?

...Is China under F for Free or C for China? China would be the common one probably.

If things are by common name, and LA us under L, that would mean China got a crit. Don't have time to fully arrange the countries by common name right now.

Forgot about Cambodia and Burma

​

Did you include Burma and Cambodia, which are missing from the key, but mentioned in note 12 and shown on the map?

Do we have any idea what formal name/title they have? If not, we can only run by common name.

Cambodia

LES NOMS!

So looking at the table VS the nations it's looking like it's going to be a AfD win with several nations getting a 20 including the US. However it's going to be a bloody mess with the rest of the planet either just hanging on or dead completely.

The Situation is rather dire, yes.

Wait, there was that one crap roll early on by Cabinda that EBR asked for a repeat for, he got a 1 the first time and a 20 the second. Do we know what EBR went with ultimately?

Do you want to give the Empire of Japan a twenty? Do you?

 

[pattontank12]

Do you want to give the Empire of Japan a twenty? Do you?

I'd be fine with something in the 14 to 16 range, for both Japan and Free China.

 

[digital2]

I assume the 1 since EBR said:

Alright, but it's your fault.

I imagine it's for a member of the Alliance, considering the emoji.

Common names, guys

Common names, guys

Sonofa--

Welp. Back to work.

 

[Whiteshore]

On a note unrelated to the Stone Dogs, when did Antonovich die and who succeeded him as leader of Russia? Also, what is the largest city in the world on the eve of the war and the Stone Dogs? New York? Some Indian city?

Anything on this question, @Ephraim Ben Raphael?

Common names, guys

Whoops. Also RIP America

There's 42 countries in the map key + burma and cambodia. What letter does the missing 45th country start with?

Free China and Lesser Antilles are under C and L right?

Would it be UK/US or America/Britain?

Honestly I'd figure the US and UK would still be the US and UK as that is the common name.

I was guessing Filipines, Britain, and Nam Viet.

In that case, the Situation has gotten worse.

On the upside Japan gets bumped down to a 2 from a 20

New common names table.

This puts the Nat 1 fumble on someone relatively minor whereever the Antilles are.

Interestingly, you still have Japan getting a crit. China gets a 15 so not too horrible.... unless Antilles are under L for Lesser! Spain gets the Pact's other crit, not too bad it's a minor puppet.

Other crits are Thailand (or Scandinava if the 45th country is higher in the alphabet) and either Britain or Burma depending on where the Antilles are. Scandinavia and Britain are both neutral, so it's either Britain and Thailand or Scandinavia and Burma.

Cambodia

1​

If they get a 1.... well, after the Khmer Rouge that's certainly morbid, wouldn't call it ironic though. Centroamerica would be even less ironic though.

 

[viper23]

I'm currently trying to total up all the bonuses, and I forgot to backup the table beforehand.

So the names are staying for now.
