How this game works is that we have a map of the world (blank one here: http://i.imgur.com/SIEou.jpg) with certain countries grouped together into unions. Each person playing takes control of one union and gives it a name (e.g. Kimchi Alliance, New Manchurian Liberation Cause, that sort of thing). Your objective is to TAKE OVER THE WORLD by any means possible!

To do things, just post a comment saying what you're trying to do and I'll say what effect it has. Examples would be attack [place], enforce conscription, drill for oil at [place] and export it to [place], research mind control. Non-serious commands are fine too.

If you're playing, post once in this thread to say so so that I know how many unions to set up. You may wish to post with a temporary tripcode for obvious reasons. I'm looking for somewhere between 4 and 8 players, so I might invite some VIPPERs...
