Mainly bad guys means enemy ships and planes.
Not really characters as such, though I could easily have a ship and it's captain haunt them throughout their war time deployments :P

(haunt in the sense of trying to blow them up :P)

What did you mean Acelanceleot?

well, in RPG... is there one side (germans?) bad and one good? are all players on the allied side?
it becomes interesting when you get PvP combat and situations..... IMO. but players in this type of game don't want to be 'bad' guys. so what is it in here that you call bad guys? that is what I am questioning here.

Ah I see... well the split is similar to what it was, with axis and allies, except the axis includes the British :P
The players are all US fleet personnel (they chose which side to be on, not me).
So 'Bad Guys' are the axis, yes.

It's preposterous, but it makes for a fun game...

Netherlands, France, Norway etc have been taken by the Germans
The French fleet are going to escape across the Atlantic to the US (Possibly along with elements of the Norwegian Navy)
In fact any help on what the Norwegian Navy looked like in WW2 would be lovely.

Royal Navy is currently neutral. Wont be for very long.

It must be said, I don't know much about them. However, the Japanese are coming in later, so I think the elements in the pacific will continue as normal.
The Atlantic units will probably try to escape with the French Fleet (maybe)
As I say, any help would be great.

and don't forget the east and west indies, were parts of the dutch kingdom were still fighting after capture.
that said, your game sounds interesting and I might want to add some dutch ships in..... maybe even play in one XD if you don't mind..... (if I can use one of ALVAMA's drawings for it maybe??? ;) )

Well, right now my players are all aboard one ship, and I'm afraid I'm aiming to keep it that way. You're welcome to join in aboard that vessel if you want to/know the system.
