Talk:Standard Future Map Game II (Map Game)/@comment-24809068-20180706045856

I want to point out a few things since there has been issues on my playing as Ukraine and the decisions that I have taken since the beginning of the game.

I do not believe that I am being implausible, I am personally trying my best to be the most plausible I can. I don't have any experience in foreign policy, model United Nations, or any of that kind of stuff so I hope you understand that the things I write are the closest I thing could happen in real life.

Yes I know that just because someone wants to do something, doesn't mean they can't do it automatically without consequences. Tymoshenko wants to end the war in the east, possibly join NATO, get closer to the EU, and keep Russia out of Ukraine. I did preform a mod response to the request to enter NATO which failed, but reapplied when the situation worsened for an "emergency membership" which I was granted and that when the conflict concludes we can withdraw and take another look at it. NATO has been sending Ukraine supplies for their conflict in the east for years now. Some of the decisions that I have made I will admit haven't been the best, prime example my use of the navy and air force which I came to realize weren't as good as I thought they were and withdrew a lot of them when I did.

I do understand that Ukraine is in the non-proliferation treaty, but leaders don't always follow the rules with the prime example being Lincoln and the suspension of the writ of habeas corpus during the civil war. In order to protect and defend one's nations leaders will break the rules, in which Tymoshenko is willing to do in order to protect Ukraine's sovereignty.

I'm not trying to take Russia's land, that's not the point in the least. All I want is to defeat the rebels and return the country to a unified whole, not split with the east and the west. Yes, no referendum would be held either okay, if Texas and the south voted to leave the union again would the United States say yea sure? Heck no, they'd ignore it and punish those who'd try (legally).

Countries, leaders, and people all act in different ways. Just like I am, they are human, making mistakes, bending the rules, etc... I'm just trying to do the best I can and yes I am listening to your suggestions but saying that I should be punished for "major implausibilities" and suggesting that I be "nuked" is not the way to go about it. I couldn't be punished with a civil war because we are already in one, that's the entire purpose for this war.
