Herbert Hoover 199 Posted September 18, 2019 Report Share Posted September 18, 2019 At about 4PM central time (4 and a half hours from now) @Reagan04 and @Conservative Elector 2 will be able to move for Washington. This is because he has had some time to act on executive issues before the ping earlier today. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

SilentLiberty 219 Posted September 18, 2019 Report Share Posted September 18, 2019 4 hours ago, Herbert Hoover said: The mission is an overwhelming success. Relations increase from poor to neutral. Action goes to you to act on your executive events. I was not going to respond to any of the optional ones at this time, that's why I left it out with the goals and sending Franklin to Britain. Like a no responce is a responce type of thing. Maybe I should have made that more clear, my apologies. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I was more so waiting for you to confirm that you were ready to resolve the NW Indian War. You can also call for legislation to make this easier, and you referenced that in your inaugural goals. If you are to pass any legislation, you will need to find proposes for them and for the legislation to pass the House and Senate. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Conservative Elector 2 333 Posted September 18, 2019 Report Share Posted September 18, 2019 The Conservative faction also supports this. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Kingthero 8 Posted September 18, 2019 Report Share Posted September 18, 2019 The Traditionalist Faction opposes the Standing Army, citing that the States should have their own armies that can loosely be lead by the Federal Government if needed. We would support a Militia Act. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Herbert Hoover 199 Posted September 19, 2019 Report Share Posted September 19, 2019 General Greene successfully repels the native tribes in the Northwestern Territories!

XOXO, -Nathanael Greene Considering the year in your RP, and what happened when the U.S. historically invaded Canada in 1812 (close to your RP's current year), the fireworks - err, the bonfire - will be at the White House. In fact, it'll BE the White House! But at least it'll burn away the stench of swamp gas... And we already have fireworks, football, and freedom - despite what Fox "News" tells you...

vcczar 1,224 Posted September 19, 2019 Author Report Share Posted September 19, 2019 What would have been interesting is that had Nathanael Greene lived longer, he would have been 70 at the outbreak of the War of 1812. He might have been too old to fight in the field, but he would have probably made an excellent Sec of War. Also, if Henry Knox had lived another decade, he'd be there too. The US sort of had a military leadership blackhole around 1812 in regards to senior leadership at that time. The navy was a little better off. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Such a trait would be FAR more appropriate, and very useful, if you were doing a game in a similar vane based on Ancient Rome. Conquest, and conquering campaigns personally enacted and led, were viewed as PERSONAL accomplishments by leaders, not as NATIONAL accomplishments, in Roman times.
