Wikipedia: Treaty of Versailles

Basically they bitchslapped Germany enough to piss them off but not enough to prevent them from starting WWII... the treaty of Versailles had a lack of enforcement and Germany used some NKorea-ish rhetoric (Zeelot?) but nobody really bothered to stand up to them.

Can only assume the analog is that WWI just ended, which might imply that TMO will recruit some power on the other side of the server... I guess Europa?... and form an alliance to try to take over the server completely. They'd also need a Russia figure (maybe Taken?) to partner with at the beginning, and then backstab, attempt to invade, get caught in the snow (lol velious) and ultimately lose the war. But I'm probably reading too much into it.

Most interesting is which guilds play which parts? IB probably has to be Britain, and FE has to be the USA... and FE has to remain neutral til Europa launches a sneak attack. I don't see Taken as much of a Russia but who else is there? I can't think of a good role for BDA to play, and I don't know who's going to be Italy either. And I'm sorry Loraen, but in my mind A-Team has to be France. Please don't take it personally.

FE is Britain. IB is the US.

FE barely held on, fighting TMO through the summer while IB was inactive. Eventually IB joined and gave us fresh reinforcements. Then we made a strong counter attack with FE/IB alliance.

I don't like Taken as Russia. GMs have to be the Soviets imo. Considering they are mostly responsible for winning the war in the end. Not that anything on this server is definitely "won" or "ending," I just want to stick with the analogy.

Can BDA be china?

[Elements]

TMO def = USA, Rogean = North Korea, FE/IB = pakistan/syria, BDA = Frenchmenistan

Agreed.

BDA is 100% France, you guys just don't want to admit it. If any guild/nation has been stomped by TMO/Germany and come crying to the UN/forums it is BDA/France.

I don't really like Taken as Russia; that would imply they were one of the greatest competitors to TMO. Hitpoint probably has the right idea: Russia is the GMs who put up with so much shit that they finally snapped.

Merkk your Western history is a bit rusty; Poland was not neutral during WW2. They spent 99% of the time conquered by Germany/Russia and then just Germany. There actually was no Poland during WW1; I had to check that one to make sure I was remembering correctly.

Also I nominate Dolji* as Italy: delusions of grandeur and being a great power, but losing to the tribal Ethiopians with tanks and artillery.

So that leaves TMO as Germany, FE as England, IB as the USA, BDA as France, The A-Team as Switzerland, <Lord Bob> as Italy, and our GMs as the long-suffering Russians.

IB can't be the US, it implies that they once were destroyed by Germany and left the planet to go fight Martians.

[Autotune]

IB is definitely Japan and staff is the US. Everyone else can be whatever, because we all know at one point the staff nuked IB into oblivion.

BDA is the moon
