User blog:Centrist16/(Altverse) Second Cold War Idea

So me, Dog of War, and Zabuza825 got around the idea of introducing a -like environment into the world of Altverse to get people more engaged (this of course, was the intention and aim of Altverse after all). Essentially, it will play on the real life power struggle between / and the / but instead, it will be more apparent and provocative with of course, the likes of Altverse nations such as Sierra and more.

Bringing forth this second Cold War into Altverse would open a myriad of collaborative and roleplaying opportunities for everyone without immediately forcing people to commit themselves to some world war (though there will, hopefully, with restraint, a number of ). Military alliances, shady political incidents, assassinations, coups, and tense talks--all of these possible and aggravated in such an environment. I'd like some general ideas and suggestions on this synopsis but I also don't want to create a rigid timeline that would force everyone to adhere it (plus, it would be quite predictable).

My proposal on how this cold war is kickstarted is that such animosity between the two main factions (Russia-China and Sierra-America) will have already existed but tensions accelerated and catalyzed with the upstart of Russian support for the Mexican Social Republic (which the latter I had made openly hostile to Sierra and America), the increasing aggression and affirmation of Chinese foreign policy in Asia (as is IRL), and Russian interference with Eastern European countries (also as is IRL).

I'd like everyone's earnest opinion on this and hope that if pulled off successfully, will bring a truly fun and exhilarating experience. &#32;  JustinVuong | Talk | World  &#32;
