Do you think I could just leave this part blank and it'd be okay? We're just going to replace the whole thing with a header image anyway, right?

The Start
The war began in 2010 after a catastrophic event occurred with a meteor formerly known as ZX-9087B crashed into Earth in Los Angeles, California in the United States. Little did Earth's inhabitants know that on that meteor there was an alien spore colony. The spore colony and it's spores were extremely resistant to heat and therefore survived the initial collision with the Earth's crust. The spores were released, and anybody who came into contact with the spores became infected.
The infected have all the characteristics of a normal person, the only differences are that they never sleep, they are inactive during the night, are very violent upon infection but seem to calm after a few days, and if they come in contact with you, you become infected. After you become infected, you have roughly a week before symptoms start occurring. Symptoms include: lack of sleep, irritability, and hunger. A little while after the initial contact with the alien spores, people had become infected all over the world because of infected person(s) traveling by boat and plane. Governments swiftly took action and eliminated all possible infected people, infected or not, and barricaded the cities. There were 6 countries left standing after they fought off the invaders. Those countries are: United States, Switzerland, Germany, Russia, France, and Canada.
Your goal is to survive as long as possible, against both the threat of the infected, and the threat of other countries. Which is more important? Your survival, or the survival of everyone? Use diplomacy to your advantage to share resources, share military, even backstabbing.
Required for forming an exposition: A Command Center
The Countries
United States: The United States specialized in adaptive technology before the Start. They still retained their knowledge after the event, and there are a few scattered buildings with usable equipment. The United States also has a rich resource field.
Switzerland: Switzerland had specialized in biomedical engineering, however they lost almost all of their buildings and equipment, although they still have the most resources available they cannot build the required Command Center for beginning a self-sustained country.
Germany: Germany specialized in making cutting edge weaponry. They are currently the most able to defend themselves, but they have no resources to build defenses.
Russia: Russia specialized in covert operations. They are able to infiltrate other countries with ease, they have limited resources and very few technologies.
France: France had managed to remain relatively untouched by the infection, they are however the smallest country with limited resources.
Canada: The upper parts of Canada had remained untouched by the spores and the infection due to the cold. The rest of the country is uninhabitable as it is overrun by the infected. They have a defensive base setup around the country.

I won't be playing, but wow. I'm intrigued to see how this plays out.
I honestly won't be playing either, and even though I've seen a lot of work put into this, just... :/ no words to say it. Mean that in like, 55% not good 45% good.
So... Did this just die?
No clue, someone's bound to play eventually.
Yeaahh.. i'l pass this time. Sowwy , Odysseus.
Figures as much, hm?
Hmm. I'll play, as Russia, if it is still goin'
To be completely honest, I'm pretty sure this thread is as good as dead..
Then why did you post here?
I was responding to Rurigok, duh.
i live in england -.- im not playin
Now that I think about it, I sort of want to play, but it's still deathly confusing..
O.O
I'll actually play- Switzerland! Although in real life I would have been one of the First to be infected (The meteor would have practically landed on me!) So, can you name some more specific rules i.e. about how resources work?
I don't think the maker of this thread is coming back, man..
Can O.P. please just make this short and quick to read... I hate it when people overcomplicate things. I don't want to read a wall of text, TL;DR, would read if you just made the instructions clearer. When you do, I might be the US. If it's not already taken.
Hmm. I'll play, as Russia, if it is still goin'
I knew you were russian!!! There's russian on your avatar.
Canada! lets play!
Errmm... I would be!
Russia/Kazhakstan/Ukraine/Germany/Israel/England/France/U.S.A/Australia basically anywhere my family tree goes.
Fail trend
If this is still around I 2 choose russia
Revives thread for people to know about
I run Germany and Switzerland. I use Germany to defend Switzerland, and I have Switzerland's resources defend Germany. I now work on a cure.
I'm taking the united states,Germany,and upper Canada.I use united states to upgrade Germany and get light-sabers and bring them to Canada to kill the whatever you call them herd and try to create a thing that turns them into humans.I succeed,and cure north America,Germany,and all of Canada.
