The more relevant point is that without the Royal Navy the Monroe Doctrine would have been an utterly toothless declaration. The United States had no capacity to enforce it until the 1880s or 1890s, which I happen to think is amusing.
It's one and the same. The Doctrine had teeth because the British Empire was behind it and the British Empire was behind it because it served their interests.

Since it is more common for people to check this forum than Down Below, I may be delayed in posting for the immediate future, until I get back from a doctor-ordered trip to the ER. I doubt it's anything life-threatening, but my fever took a turn for the worse.

Slid off the highway Saturday night in the snow and smacked the guardrail. Whipped my neck and popped a valium last night for it, and it knocked me right out. I'll post up when I get home from work tonight. Sorry for the delay :/.

Just to be sure I did some digging and found Havoc's event post. For future reference guys, make your event posts something I can see and find quickly don't bury them cause then I might miss them. Which would lead to me doing things no one would like.

Hehe, sorry Frigid, I had a lot to go over. I'm gonna throw up a recap post in non-narrative form this afternoon.

I have edited the 1st page of the game thread to include a war scorecard (telling you who is on what side in a given war, I also listed the neutrals in the European war) and a calendar that will tell you when events are gonna be rolled and when your build orders are due. Full credit for this idea goes to Cleric and Slacker. I owe them both a coke or something for taking so long to do it.

Havoc, Cat please wait until I get home and actually post the in game Spanish declaration of war before acting. Once the intial actions of Spain are posted control of the Spanish forces will pass from me to the Axis members (read, Cleric and CT) within reason. I will step in if they start using the Spanish as cheap cannon fodder or abandon Spain to protect themselves using Spanish troops. Enjoy the new wrinkle guys.

Lonestar, I've seen all of one post from you. You were suppose to be posting once a week. If you do not post this week, you're out of the game. Klavo I want to see a post from you as well.

Well...

There goes my entire battleplan. Time to revise...

Frigid, the Spanish OOB does not include any actual deployments. How are we to assume that the Spanish army, navy, and air force is deployed, given that there's been no explicit movement to date?

Are you kidding? I've had deployments on that thing for over a week now. Best check again buddy.

Actually I do need to put up the reserves. I'm working on that now (magi has many windows open).

I know Marcoa has recused himself from it on the grounds of being Hotfoot's roommate. Charon hasn't posted anything since last week. And I know frigid is way too busy.

So, being an alternate mod, I'm going to grab this unless there are objections.

Having being confirmed in my mod hood by the Icy One I will now begin with my tyrannical demands

1) Respect ma authoritae! :wink:

2) Clearly list what you're attacking with either in the attack post, in another post, or in a separate post in OOC. Even if its crystal clear somewhere in your OOB, copy-paste and repost the relevant parts. Remember I have hunt through Steve's OOB on this.

3) Please do 2) ASAP.

Okay, here's the concise version of my attack:

7 bomber groups doing night raids on military bases around Flagstaff

3 bomber groups doing a night raid on the IX corps in Utah

The attack on Flagstaff's military bases is made up of these forces:

121st, 122nd, 123rd, and 124th Motorized Divisions with direct support from 151st-155th Light Tank Divisions, followed by 181st-185th Heavy Tank Divisions should the frontline troops get bogged down.

All air groups are available for calling on air support should it be needed.

Forces listed here.

Edit: The 2nd fleet is hitting LA, the 3rd Fleet is hitting San Diego/Tijuana/La Paz. The 4th fleet is not engaging currently.

If anyone feels the butcher's bill is inappropriate, this time you may appeal.

I'd also like to remind everyone their build orders are due by Sunday night. If you don't turn one in, your industries just sat there looking pretty.
