Terra Nullius (Map Game) is an Active Map Game.

“Bravo 2-1, this is Cobra. Incoming for extraction at secondary exfil point, over. Got a nice view of the Golden Gate today.”

- Part of a transcript released by the United States Dark Zone Task Force


Tom Clancy's The Division MSG

Welcome to Terra Nullius. It’s been fifty years since a man-made disease ravaged the world - and created Dark Zones. Areas of near-total anarchy scattered across the world in former major cities or biochemically contaminated no-go zones.

The world truly is just that bit more dangerous now.



Terms, Zones, Wars and others

Dark Zones

Dark Zones are areas worst affected by the original outbreak. Areas where local factions of marauders and scavengers engage in open warfare, or deserted cities like Seoul, with bodies and perhaps mutations littering the streets of formerly bustling places.

The reason why they can’t be controlled is simple: extreme levels of contamination and a hostile populace. In some, like the San Francisco Zone, governments have a minor presence which enables them to probe and research them. In others, factions have driven all semblance of order from their little havens.

Dark Zones have created regions of peril for trade - regardless of sea, land or air. Sympathisers and illegal activities conducted by international mafia organisations jostling for control of the various zones has left surrounding areas either defunct or in peril. When left to their own devices, Zones can even grow in size due to leakage or just crime in general.

But at the same time, Dark Zones provide a special resource unseen anywhere else: research. The chemicals left behind as well as surviving samples of the contagion could lead to cures, new technology, and new weapons. Army supply depots and former research labs lie abandoned throughout, waiting to be rediscovered.

Good luck with them.

DARK ZONES and main biohazard - LIST

  • Seoul - SH-27
  • San Francisco - contamination via original disease
  • Qinghai - contamination via original disease, origin
  • Rio de Janiero - As-VAGB
  • Congolese - Central Africa - contamination via original disease
  • Singapore - contamination via original disease
  • Sendai - contamination via original disease
  • Krakow - PAV
  • Podogorica - contamination via original disease
  • Mumbai - contamination via original disease
  • Naypyitaw - contamination via original disease
  • Bristol - contamination via original disease
  • Caracas - contamination via original disease

Technology 2051

  • Man has gone to Mars. In 2043, as part of the United Nations Catastrophic Emergency Response Agency celebrating the general end of the outbreak, five people were sent to the surface of the fourth planet from the sun.
  • Autonomous vehicles are common in certain countries, mostly smaller, coastal states such as Cyprus.
  • In response to the outbreak, medical research has advanced significantly, with scientists close to discovering a cure for cancer. Rumours of a Broad-Spectrum Antiviral designed based on the outbreak's virus have it that a cure to most viral infections exist, left behind in one of the dark zones.
  • Experimental warp technology for miniscule spacecraft exist.
  • Augmented Reality technologies have fallen out of favour on personal mobile devices, while they have found favour in development and military sites.
  • The 'magic bullet' carbon solution developed in Scotland has become a major part of the fight against man-made climate change.
  • Helicopter Carriers and Aircraft Carriers have become involved in a large-scale technological race to develop one more viable for a similar cause; the former by Japan and the United Kingdom, the latter by the United States.
  • Man-portable anti-vehicle railguns are being developed.
  • A 'genetic 3D printer' allegedly exists somewhere in the Qinghai or Seoul Dark Zones. It can apparently easily adjust DNA, similar to the CRISPR technology,and even literally create genetic material.

Wars

  • The Maghrebi/North African collapse resulted in the three main Non-Governmental Zones Africa, three largely lawless zones of varying factions that one would not want control over. No action has been taken to get them under control, but any attempt is going to be extremely difficult.
  • A short war between Brazil and Argentina sparked one of the most tense relationships ever made. The agreement essentially dictated reparations beyond the Brazilian ability to pay, which has destroyed the Brazilian economy even more than the collapse of global trade links.
  • China v. Tibet/East Turkestan is back on the table. A few attempted genocides, decades of oppression, and a freedom movement later, Tibet and East Turkestan now fight an extensive war to keep the Chinese out of their territory, helped (handily) by India and Japan.
  • Filipino Collapse dictated the entire country collapsing into several different countries of varying stability.
  • Birmingham Riots initiated by dissatisfied Americans, especially in the American South and California, which were hit worst by both the virus and economic crisis, led to two secessions. Despite this, both of said new nations are destitute and are currently in the middle of their own self-made crises.
  • The Russo-Ukrainian war resulted, surprisingly, in a stunning Ukrainian victory (with no small amount of Turkish support). The resulting tiny buffer states littering the Ukranian border as well as the ensuing Turkish conquest of the Eastern Balkans have resulted in endless instability.
  • The Angolan-South African War has lasted almost two decades now, between the Angolan Empire and Free South Africa, with a five-year-long lull caused by the successful construction of the South African wall and a strong defensive perimeter.

Rules

  • Swearing is acceptable so long as it isn't excessive. 'Sh#t' and 'f#ck' are fine so long as you aren't calling another player a 'motherf#cker' or something on a constant basis.
  • The comments are not an acceptable place to carry out diplomacy. As per the new rules of Terra Nullius, diplomatic endeavours can be carried out at any time on the current turn (regardless of if you have posted a turn or not).
  • Other than diplomatic actions, however, don't think you're getting second turns all the time. Only when sub-turns (special events and what not) occur can you post a second time on the same year.
  • Implausibility is defined as the creation or changing of state of a certain object, person, country, etc. with no logical or historical basis. Do note that means you can argue your case if you believe that turns struck down for implausibility were in fact plausible. Of course, all moderators (even the cartographer) are given explicit permission to argue their case or strike down turns.
  • Moderators are leaders. However, only the map game administrator can make turns unless other moderators are given explicit permission.
  • All players which have been absent for a long enough period of time (roughly two or three turns) will have their nations temporarily taken over by moderators in order to prevent absence issues.
  • Before securing a nation and indeed at any point during the map game, players are allowed (and very much encouraged) to ask questions about the state of their countries. This isn't a rule, but this is to reduce the chances of unintended implausibility.

2051

Events

  • Flag of Taiwanese Hong Kong Hong Kong Celebrations: Hong Kong celebrates ten years independent from China, an event that prompts Chinese artillery to fire and kill thirteen people in rural Guangzhou. The event sparks outrage from Taiwan, which forces China to factor the event into negotiations for any form of trade agreement.
  • Siberian-Russian Border Skirmishes: A series of events on the Siberian-Russian border sparked by overzealous nationalist border guards causes tensions between both countries. While no major diplomatic changes occur, the tensions are undeniable.
  • The Wall holds: The concentrated S.A.P wall blocking much of Western South Africa from invasion by Angola continues to stand even despite renewed attacks by Angolan forces. A South African incursion via Port Elizabeth recaptures the vital naval base from Angola, although it is widely contested and is likely to fall soon.

NPC Nation Turns

  • Flag of Russia Russia displays a prototype tank-mounted railgun to the world, although saying nothing of its capabilities. It also begins negotiations with Siberia regarding nuclear weapons still in Siberian territory [Player Response Required].
    • Flag of Siberia (Terra Nullius) Siberia: Siberia agrees to start negotiating with Russia on that matter and looks forward to receiving a Russian proposal regarding the nuclear weapons.
  • Flag of Saudi Arabia Saudi Arabia begins rebuilding the devestated city of Mecca, hoping to restore one of the centres of Islam to its full glory yet again.

Following the collapse of several industries after the virus, our main priority is the reconstruction of out tertiary and service industries. Government incentives are introduced to try and start up insurance, tourism and health companies. A public bank, the Grand Turkish Bank (GTB) is set up by the Turkish government, at the moment it has very low interest rates to try and help our economy. An attempt to improve the Turkish territory in the balkans begins with large infrastructure construction in Romania and Bulgaria to connect the two to each other and to Istanbul. The Turkish government begins funding two research projects, towards efficient nanotechnology and medical research on a cure for cancer. At the same time, Turkish engineers are working on a new class of ship specifically designed to launch missiles, an “arsenal ship”. WIP

The military budget is reorganised to devote more funding to research and development. This is in tandem with the Swedish private sector arms manufacturing industry's decision to expand its export market, but also to reduce exports to unstable nations so as to avoid promoting deadly war crimes. As a result, they are turning to more developed nations as customers, hence the necessity to innovate so as to be at the forefront of arms manufacturing. [Secret] Research into laser weaponry and man-portable rail guns is high on the priority list, while the development of non-nuclear EMPs and the use of gliders for covert warfare is already well underwear, building on research of past decades. AI-controlled drones (air, sea, and land) are in the earliest stages of development though the mechanical technologies required to construct the craft have mostly been developed, it is the AI and computer hardware involved in controlling the devices that is in its infancy, though progress is accelerating. Three main projects are spawning out of this. The first is to use land and air based AI drones to assist and protect manned ground crews in Blitzkrieg warfare as well as in standard battle. Manned air crews may also see swarms of smaller drones providing support in aerial battles and bombing campaigns alike, with the distinct possibility of entirely unmanned bombers operating on their own or by remote-control. A hypothetical project for the construction of a Navy Drone-Carrier class ship is also in development. The advantage of a drone-carrier is that it can be significantly smaller than an aircraft carrier and cheaper to run, with only a skeletal crew needed to launch aerial and nautical drone craft alike. [Secret]

With a healthy economy and productive citizenry, the government sees the modernisation of the military and expansion of the arms exports industry as a priority to promote the Swedish economy and help keep global stability.
