If it isn't clear yet, buffs from Space Race are allocated next turn. I thought the space race buffs would be applied to the phase after the one they're in (as in 1953 2nd applies to 1954 1st), so in this case you would be using the buffs from the first phase right now, right? Or is it more of 1 year later (two phases later), so it's 1953 2nd applying to 1954 2nd, and then 1954 1st applying to 1955 1st? I'm just asking for clarification.
On a side note: I've inserted the start date in the top of the announcement on page 1. For the benefit of outside readers (and for ourseleves when this RP is over and any of us wishes to go over the old threads). Yes, you're right.

Concerning Geneva Conference, is PRC a part of Indochina side? 3 rolls for influence, right? Wanted to ensure.

I'll give those who haven't posted until Wednesday to write a turn/ask for an extension/provide an explanation.

I've been in and out of the hospital visiting a family member, among other school-related things lately, so I've had a reason to not post yet. But my turns will be up by tonight, I promise.

Santa Anna, how many men did I lose in your attacks (in total)? Really got them Commies running for their lives in the end though.

Added this paragraph to my latest turn. Diplomacy: Requests from the South Korean government for military assistance are approved and as a result, the White Horse Division (9th Korean Infantry Division) is shipped out to Saigon and is tasked with the defence of Saigon. Monetary compensation will be given to the Korean government in return on a yearly basis. Frederick the Great , this action is under consideration. Do not consider it done. - tpc .

A reminder: you're expected to actually negotiate (present terms, compromise) in the Geneva Conference. The roll mechanics only simulate the alignment of UK and France in the agreement process.

I forgot to add, since we are having peace negotiations in the RP timeline, do consider if starting offensives in (presumably) a ceasefire to provide time for negotiations would be the wisest step.

That brings up a question for North Vietnam's attacks. I wasn't sure if it's okay for USA to feel provoked enough by the flagrant violations committed in those attacks to the point of... like demanding that the envoy of NV be thrown out of the conference due to gross disregard of internationally accepted guidelines of cease-fires and bilateral negotiation conferences. Sounds reasonable to punish, yuus? Edit: I've completed my three rolls for France's influence and PRC's humiliation. (This is entirely separate from the NV thing, which still needs an answer, tpc)
