Planet Bholl map game

## Overview

This is a nation building game, where you pick small nation on the face of the Planet Bholl and colonise the empty places, whilst developing your economy, space program, science and sporting prowess.

## Scenario

It is a completely new and habitable planet, not on Earth or anywhere else in our solar system. There no fantasy, sci-fi or aliens; only a modem era type human civilization, who think they occurred spontaneously, but are in fact are the spawn of long forgotten settlers from Earth.

As the years had gone by things changed. Since the first colonies were settled (in 2300AD), expanded and then abandoned, crews spread out across the landmass of the planet. There were good times and bad times for the 2500 years that saw the colonies become nations and then they had a horrific and egocentric ten-year oil war (4800AD)  which sent them in to a new dark age. The game starts in a rebuilt world 1000 years after the war had ended.

The current date is 5800AD and the nations on the map have been here for 600 to 700 years, but no one is sure exactly how long.

The population now stands at 7.5 billion, and the nations have now grown so apart in culture and politics that have divided themselves into new sets of "nations", "states" and "countries", like back on their home-world (Earth). About 50% of the planet is still unclaimed.

all knew of each other for at least the last 300 years and all nations have radio and telephone communications with each other, unless a dictator has chosen to block it from entering his nation.

Satellites analogues to Telstar, Arabsat-1A and TIROS-1 do orbit the planet and Marisat F1 orbit the planet. They are mostly under international control.

The planet already had simple and harmless life-forms like Phytoplankton, Algae, Archaea and Bacteria, all of which lived through the terra-forming and now flourish, along side the many species imported from earth.

The brown trout (Salmo trutta), Alaska pollock or walleye pollock (Gadus chalcogrammus,formerly Theragra chalcogramma), Abies sibirica (Siberian fir) and Acer platanoides (Norway maple), the dromedary (Camelus dromedarius); Koklass pheasant, (P. macrolopha) and the common broom (Cytisus scopar\Sarothamnus scoparius) were all part of a mass shipment of earth flaura and fauna to help feed the first settlers by the terraformers that came before them.

The tech level is at 1982 levels. Could you create a better nation with better people, better lifestyle, living in a higher civilization?

## War algorithm

None is to be used beyond  the table of war factors, so use your common scene and reed the table blow! Always say how many troops, tanks, aircraft, ships, etc, that you use so as to give the mods a good grasp of the situation so they can judge the outcome fairly.

* ***Remember things like:***

1. Nukes, chemical weapons and bio weapons are a major force on the battle field. If you want to use them, you MUST NOT GO CRAZY, IT'S NO DD1983!
	1. Nuclear war is limited by a doomsday clause- Maximum *total* yield per player each year is 500 KT (0.5 MT) and a total of 5000 KT (5 MT) by all players added together in any one round.
2. Population limits military size. The Russian army is larger than the entire population of Luxembourg for an obvious reason- there are many more Russians than Luxembourgers.
3. Don't go crazy since over-expatiation causes trouble.
4. Stay realistic. No daft stuff like Monaco conquering the world in a year!
5. The more mines, oil well, transport, infrastructure, bases, weapons, troops and factories you make, the better, since trade sanctions can stop vital imports like oil, aircraft and food.
6. A long war will sap morale for both parties, especially the losing side.
7. Jungle, desert, small atoll type islands, high mountains, big cities, major forts, major bunkers and polar zones make good defensive lands.
8. The mod(s) decided the outcome from their wisdom, but you can complain if you think it is biased.
9. Putting spies in to a target nation for a few years will aid your conquest.

A political map is being constructed.

## Independent nations, their protectorates and their vassals.

This is a list of the game's various, mostly small, nations. You can chose which one you are to play as.

You can determine the government and basis of society (exsaple: a monarchy like UK, a dictatorship North Korea style, a Islamic state like Iran, a communist state in the idea of USSR or a presidential system similar to the US and so on...).

The nations have a culture similar to their earth counterpart (exsaple: Muscovy is of Russian descent, Rome is Italian (or Roman, that would be awesome), Montreal is French Canadian, Damascus is Syrian Arab, etc...).
