Gunboat diplomacy. "You be nice to us or we'll have an excuse to declare war and actually use this doomstack that's been sitting there the entire game."

Why does this sound so good.

- Your territory is defined as Provinces and cities under your control, the nearest (sea) dot to your provinces (to be known as your waters), and the airspace above these locations.

this is example for Britain's home island water and airspace.

Which poses a problem. Notice the little "nook", about to the east of Dublin? Enemy ships could just hang there and the country can't do anything about it. There would be a similar issue in Kamchatka, and probably many more.

Which provides an interesting little challenge for both the UK and its potential enemies. Sure, you could solve that by invading Ireland, but wouldn't it be interesting guarding your own waters with ships of your own and seeing what your enemies do in response?

There is a solution to this.
You may claim territory, as long as it does not include another nation's waters

or

where 2 countries share a dot (waters), if between player and AI, allow the player to use it.

Canada and Australia were independent decades before WW2 ... why are they puppets?

They are Dominions and part of the commonwealth, why would they join ww2 and sacrifice their men for a country thousands of miles away otherwise? They also only gained full independence in the 80’s, even if they had growing sovereignty over that time.

Newspaper Rules:

- You must write 1, 50 word or more, newspaper article every IRL 2 days

- When declaring War, you must write at least a 150-word newspaper article

- When writing in the newspaper, always remain in character, if you want to say anything out of character, contact a moderator about it instead, and they will handle it.

I think that a 150 word requirement for a war dec is too much. Also, can there be moderator-approved surprise attacks? If I guarantee some territory and it gets attacked, can I intervene in that region no matter what?

I’m fine with it, the more activity the better, plus you’ll have 3 days of tension to write it. Still, it’s Zaktty’s decision. And yes, if you guarantee someone you can insta join a war for them. Still, I don’t think its 100% as easy as “I guarantee everyone that Germany attacks” and you can insta join anything or something.
