Official statement: we writers have elected not to release the timeline for the Yugoslavian War until we actually start posting. We've already rescheduled our timeline once, and we want to have a large portion of our writing completed before we start publishing, so as to avoid getting behind the main game timeline.

I don't think it would be very realistic to just tell everyone "Hey this is when the war would start". How are you going to get realistic responces?

I stopped my writing in Spring of 37 as from what I understood the war was nigh.
Since the Dutch will be at least peripherally involved. RA asked what the Dutch could/would send, I provided a list and timeframe for the forces.
The conduct of the war will effect how the Dutch view their domestic politics and international obligations. Indeed, it is possible that if the war is delayed enough the Dutch response to a conflict and level of aid would change from my original response.
From what I understand currently, I will be going ahead and update my news through Q4, which will cover things like the India-Uk deal, the purchase of SAE battleships and miscellaneous.
So I would like is to know a little bit in advance, like 'btw, next quarter is likely the yugo war'.

This could help selling ABUSE to the Raj if it happens before the ratification, if it happens after the treaty we will not be too happy with the South Africans but an answer of just business would be understood. Still not be too happy about it, but.

Hence the large payment in Q3. Really made doing my turn easier
When I get to it, it will likely be a very early Q3 announcement.
Back in 1918, the lack of heavy warships is why India couldn't push their advantage against the DEI fleet further. Shortly after the Treaty of Honolulu, SAE sold Bahrat a battleship. Talk about someone being unhappy...

Still a war doesn't start out of the blue. I liked the way Hood and Ho played the South American War.

We've already planned on this. Just because you haven't seen it yet doesn't mean it won't happen - when the time is right.

If during July it definetely will be the linching pin to convince Bharat to sign the Treaty.
On the other hand if after the announcement it will be an easier sell to the Dutch cabinet and their constituency to pay for these battleships.
IMO the big winners after all of this will be the SAE. They got the Indians out of Satsuma, a better working relationship with the British and they sold two capital ships to an ally at a very good price.

I think I'm being misunderstood. The way you guys are setting the war works very well in our setting. By getting the whole thing completed before posting allows you guys not to fall too far behind (the only defect of the South African War IMO) and allows for somewhat up-to-date responses to events from the rest of us.
But, it will be very difficult IMO to get everyone on the same book without at least giving a one quarter heads up for everyone to catch up. But that is just my opinion.
