I had a similar experience, as part of a school project to learn about international politics. It was a live action game set in a modern fictional world, with each student having different political roles for their respective countries. The whole game was governed by the UN with what was basically US (played by the teachers) at the head. After a while quite a few of us got bored by the heavy handed control of the UN. So we split and formed our own faction, the teachers didn't approve and threatened us both financially and economically. We din't back down and mobilized our forces (which outnumbered the remaining UN). In return the teachers announced that they had nuclear weapons (a thing never mentioned before) and fired them on three of our coalition's countries. The game ended shortly after since most of the students didn't bother participating since most agreed that the teachers were sore losers and left instead.
Should have talked things through with some more open minded UN members(teachers), even if you guys mobilized and created your own factions, UN shouldn't just fire nukes at a problem, ergo, you could persuade some of UN members to leave UN and start creating united front with rest of the players with casus beli of UN council leader not adhering to UN council rules
Indeed, as Anon stated, he was losing against China, and even though it changed at some point for him to spare his forces, the fact that he was building a Zerg fleet was ballsy AF and I love it.
andKnuckles 50 carriers, that's more than all naval powers at the time combined, considering how Japan was on shortage in a lot of things, he must have canabilized a lot of shit to get it going.
There are plenty of channels that read out thread stories, but yours is the only one that actually has effort put into it. All the others just find a popular thread and run it through a TTS program and put a few crappy memes on the screen. You, on the other hand, take the time to read it out coherently and with emotions. Also, you pronounce words correctly, especially with the “All Guardsman Party” episodes, as TTS programs just love saying “Tee-Rye-Nids”. All in all, I love your content and hope you continue to create it.
Did a somewhat similar simulation but it was live action, zero sum, and just student groups. Thanks to the rules needing ~3/4th military advantage to win a war our country of neutral militant amazons were the king makers in a world war that saw the rest of the class group up against one scripted evil nation. We demanded a massive bribe from the aggressors to stay out of the conflict with half up front. After they agreed the remaining group, resigned to their doom, offered up a bribe and all the spoils of war if we defended them. A failed war saw the aggressors lose somewhere between 25 to 50% of their total resources in spoils which would be split between the victors. This was a full figure above what was needed to get points for the assignment. We defended the isolated nation and fleeced the rest of the class to the point where it was impossible for them to actually reach their resource goals without massive dissolution. Sure our president got thrown against a wall outside of class for the betrayal but pain is temporary and glory is forever.
He would be, if the story was remotely true. It's green text /chan/ post which automatically shoves it into the suspect category because green text on 4Chan is code for "made up story". This was posted in 2016, even assuming that the Anonymous poster was still in 8th grade or had just moved on to 9th, there's literally no way a teacher now could get away with people playing a computer game for a week or more (absolutely no way this was all in one day). The lack of actual game name is another red flag, and it literally can't be what Cloak and Dagger thinks it is because the game did not exist in 2016. Also no way that a teacher would play the game with his classes all day for weeks on end, for 4 years and not get in shit for it. Or have enough computers for a class to participate at the numbers he is mentioning. It's a badly made up story about how Anon wasn't favored by the teacher and was an underdog but still won the day for the class and Axis powers. Because 4chan.
@@DwarfyDoodad The game is, as has been stated, Making history: The calm and the storm. Which was made over ten years ago in 2007. It is, in fact used for educational purposes in a few schools curriculum's about WW2. Additionally, just because its a chan post doesn't mean its a made up story, and Green text is just a way to fragment sections of a story for easier reading, as was done in this instance, or for summary's and criticism in response to other posts. Additionally, you vastly overestimate the time it would take to play a game like this, and vastly underestimate the amount of computers a school can have. Additionally, even if it took a week like you estimate, there have been times where a class focuses on a single project for longer, even an entire month.
Shit. Closest we did was two fold. Once we played as like the UN Security council in like 9th or 10th grade and then in Upper Secondary where we just played Risk.
The game is *probably* Making History: The Calm & The Storm, but there's no way of knowing for certain. Be warned, Steam reviews suggest it may be broken (although more recent reviews suggest that it's been fixed).
If only the teacher existed and this actually happened. It's a 4chan green text underdog story. I mean the whole class cheers when he wins and the teacher calls Anon the most fun player he has ever played against ever in the whole time he has been doing this for 4 years. Because they have to otherwise what's the point in the story. It's a made up 4Chan story.
That or Mr.bear. That guy was awesome! he me ( a nerd w/o friends) play Yoshimitsu during the warring states and totally allowed us to vote to collect together the Philippines and the Koreas to make a massive south china coalition to face off against another class. rather then server an emperor.
Bruh I chose Costa Rica I wrecked everyone bcz I made treaties with everyone played the fool so no one noticed me attacked peeps in the class who won’t speak if I ask em too then grew my army no one knew what I was doing I joined both sides by lying since no one ever checked me cause like I said when I was acting no one cared I then took everyone out and then said I was Axis no one was Axis except me Germany and 2 others we still one
This reminds me of a stupid little game we played in Poly Sci. I was given the warrior nation and given the goal of building my army. Unfortunately, the teacher was one of those idiots who thinks the UN can do no wrong. So when I had my big ass army I decided my neighbor looked tasty and declared war. Even though his capital was less than a day's march from my border the game's rules you must have exactly three times your enemies armies and your enemies allies armies combined else you lose the war immediately and are booted from the game. so even though I had factored that in when I was making allies. one guy was pissed that I wasn't giving him enough land and turned against me. tactics be damned. My industrial advantage and naval dominance ignored by the teacher. The Nation of Spartonia is not allowed to go to war because fuck you outnumbered means outgunned and tactics are for pussies.
God I wish I could get all of my brothers to play a 4x game with me, all they ever play is call of duty. It would be so fun to compete against them building empires watching alliances be forged and broken and watching war rage amongst family.
It IS a good idea. It engages the people in an actual fn environment where they might want to know more about the units, where games like AOE happilly pack in historical facts.

Cloak and Dagger it hasn’t shut down yet, are there still results of it?
but in making history you can't be argentina.
Thallan i looked into it and you actually can play as argentina in the calm and the storm
ThePolarclaw huh, steam lied to me then.
This story has convinced me to buy the game, wish me luck.
"Ended up as Argentina"
Don't need to hear any more, you won.
You DO NOT fuck with a good player starting as Argentina in multiplayer
