Good morning AtomicAgePowers!

We over at r/SWWP have been working hard on a new season, and are now just about ready to launch! If you are looking to join, we'll be going over our third wave of claims in about 6 hours, and will have the final pre-game claims list up by game start tomorrow.

SWWP - Second World War Powers - is an xPowers game brought to you by former and current mods of EmpirePowers, centered around the immediate aftermath of the Great War. Rather than jump you right into WW2, we hope to instead let players create their own problems by having a player-led Paris Peace Conference. Want to completely balkanize Germany? Perhaps the Ottoman Empire didn't deserve the fate it received historically, and you want to change that? Should Italy received all of the land it was once promised by the allies? This and more are for you, the players, to decide - and these decisions will help shape the future, rather than simply plopping you into 1936 and telling you to have fun. Here, you can claim any political polity with actionable sovereign power that existed the minute after the armistice - within reason, of course. For a generalized list of claims that have already been pre-approved for claiming, feel free to look here, and then submit a claim yourself!

We also have a map courtesy of /u/Yetkinler and /u/GammaRay_X available for you to plan your conquest - or imagine the world as it will be after your imminent demise. Based partly on the HoI4 base map - simply to get things off the ground, of course- this map has been extensively researched over the past few months to provide you the closest snapshot of 11:01 AM, November 11th, 1918 that we could deliver with the resources available to us.

Feel free to check on the 'dev diaries' that have been written up over the past month to see the mechanics and general idea of the game going forward, or stick around and ask in the discord to see if we can answer any questions you might have. We look forward to having you!

Special thanks to /u/Christi-Cat , who lead research on the Republic of China at this time period and for her help in moderating Asia in the upcoming season.
