253 views • 7/23/2017
A new season is starting and a new and aspiring newcomer manages to land their hands on China. My nen jeff.
| 00:00 - 00:01 | -Claim as quickly as I can. |
| 00:01 - 00:02 | It's a good way to relax. |
| 00:02 - 00:06 | And if I claim early enough. The map should be relatively clean. |
| 00:06 - 00:09 | But no amount of rules can count to the chance |
| 00:09 - 00:12 | That four claims in fifteen will form continental blobs on the map. |
| 00:12 - 00:14 | And one in fifty will go further... |
| 00:15 - 00:17 | If i'm in a good mood, i'll claim a small country |
| 00:17 - 00:20 | Cherishing my claim like the last one I cared for. |
| 00:20 - 00:24 | If i'm in a greedy mood, angry or I was occupied by a bigger country in the last season. |
| 00:24 - 00:26 | I'll be a powergamer. |
| 00:26 - 00:29 | Which can look stupid to people who know nothing about WorldPowers. |
| 00:30 - 00:32 | **Desperately posts Production Events** |
| 00:33 - 00:35 | WorldPowers Gameplay has come on eons |
| 00:35 - 00:37 | Since the last season |
| 00:37 - 00:39 | When patrons were forced to play through the geopolitical equivalent |
| 00:40 - 00:41 | Of a clusterfuck. |
| 00:41 - 00:44 | Suffice to say I haven't been occupied... |
| 00:44 - 00:45 | ...Since... |
| 00:47 - 00:48 | For a decade. |
| 00:49 - 00:51 | My claim is in NATO... |
| 00:53 - 00:57 | Now the WorldPowers game isn't just a substitute for when the Xpowers game you play on... |
| 00:57 - 00:58 | Is being reset. |
| 00:59 - 01:04 | It's actually open to literally anyone that can cobble together the pretty meager account age. |
| 01:05 - 01:07 | From heavy Paradox Gamers to plump unemployed folk |
| 01:08 - 01:09 | Who game to compete and chat. |
| 01:10 - 01:12 | China: -Now, i'm joined by a player called Colin |
| 01:13 - 01:14 | Or should I said Colon?! |
| 01:15 - 01:15 | USA: Ahaha... |
| 01:15 - 01:16 | China: Now we've both claimed- Hello. |
| 01:17 - 01:17 | USA: Hello. |
| 01:17 - 01:19 | China: We're trying to keep our big claims afloat. |
| 01:19 - 01:20 | China: -Having a conversation. |
| 01:20 - 01:21 | China: Why? |
| 01:21 - 01:23 | USA: Well, actually i'm an experienced claimant. |
| 01:23 - 01:25 | China: Which means old player- Carry on. |
| 01:25 - 01:26 | USA: Yes... Sort of. |
| 01:26 - 01:30 | USA: I help smaller claims being annexed and eventually absorb them. |
| 01:30 - 01:32 | China: So- Could you survive a war without firing a nuke? |
| 01:32 - 01:32 | USA: Yeah. |
| 01:32 - 01:33 | China: -Yeah so can I... |
| 01:33 - 01:35 | China: So tell me about invading. |
| 01:35 - 01:39 | USA: Well- I suppose it came into prominence in the first season. |
| 01:39 - 01:40 | USA: When it came under EXPANSION posts. |
| 01:41 - 01:42 | USA: Or Absorbing. |
| 01:42 - 01:43 | China: CONF- A claimed one I meant. |
| 01:43 - 01:46 | USA: Oh- Well, essentially, it's the same as invading with EXPANSION. |
| 01:46 - 01:48 | USA: But the claimant offers more resistance |
| 01:48 - 01:51 | USA: While also giving an excuse to militarize your entire claim. |
| 01:51 - 01:53 | China: Right- Trying to prevent a coalition to stop you takes effort. |
| 01:53 - 01:55 | China: It's like putting the world into slow motion. |
| 01:55 - 01:57 | China: Which is why many big claimants |
| 01:57 - 01:57 | China: When they're in decline- |
| 01:58 - 01:59 | China: Just try and develop space...! |
| 01:59 - 02:03 | USA: Yeah- Because development posts are very good for relevance and international relations. |
| 02:03 - 02:08 | USA: Which is why a stable big claim wiki tends to have that list of TECH posts. |
| 02:08 - 02:10 | China: S-Sorry- I spat a breakaway state at you. |
| 02:10 - 02:11 | China: *Struggling to prevent an invasion* |
| 02:11 - 02:14 | USA: Um- Which is why developing might be perfect for you. |
| 02:14 - 02:19 | USA: Because it'll give you the stability that it provides as well as allies to deter war. |
| 02:19 - 02:21 | Chinese Empire: I know you said that before-...! |
| 02:21 - 02:23 | USA: Um- A-Also with the crisis you're in- Are you alright? |
| 02:23 - 02:25 | South Africa: Yeah i'm absolutely fine. |
| 02:25 - 02:27 | USA: It reduces and alleviates your frontiers. |
| 02:28 - 02:29 | South Africa: Right. |
| 02:29 - 02:33 | USA: And also partitioning- And when you're in the heat and uncertainty of war... |
| 02:34 - 02:35 | USA: It helps remove bad claima- |
| 02:35 - 02:36 | *Chinese Empire being gangbanged* |
| 02:36 - 02:39 | South Africa: Now- Have you participated in an orgy-intervention? |
| 02:39 - 02:41 | USA: Yes- Yes, I've destroyed a few. |
| 02:41 - 02:41 | Chinese Empire: Stop! |
| 02:41 - 02:44 | South Africa: Right- But if anyone didn't declaim when the coalition declared war, you'd say...? |
| 02:44 - 02:47 | USA: Well- Erm- I don't really want to say no one... |
| 02:47 - 02:47 | Nazi China: Help! |
| 02:48 - 02:50 | South Africa: Exactly- But I had to declaim to focus on life. |
| 02:50 - 02:52 | South Africa: Colin_000, thanks very much. |
| 02:54 - 02:55 | USA: Are you declaiming-? |
