The Curious Case of a Great War

[Aerandariel]

For me, I would want to see what Siora looked like geopolitically in the 1450s or such to make an astute call, but part of me wants to see a conflict of this magnitude occur at the height of our Colonial Era, not necessarily at the cusp of the Industrial Era (though either one is good to work with in my view).

If we play this and go down the "World War" scenario, we more than likely know where the bulk of the fighting would be: Brigidna. I can't really see anywhere other than there. Logically speaking then a lot of the inventions Lom was mentioning like the airplane and early industrial weapons would probably have been invented in Brigidna or some of the Brigidnan colonies. It just makes sense that way. The only hole in this logic I can see is if some of these inventions were made elsewhere and the Brigidnans adapted them for usage in war. If we go down a more "Regional War" scenario, I have a feeling we have more wiggle room. Obviously Brigidna would be the smartest choice in my view, but you can easily have such a scenario take place in the Near East or even Kvaenna.

Either way, I would want to see what the world would look like just before such an event that way we can gauge the best way forward.
