On the Netherlands
As the Netherlands does have treaty status, I can accept an ahistorical navy - though I do consider the Dutch force levels excessive.
However, Indian history posted in the early sim days should not have to be re-written again. I would therefore ask a prospective player not to have any ahistoric ships available to him during 1916-17, when India was supposed to be fighting the historical coastal defence battleships.
Similarly, the Netherlands must not be involved in WW1, as it changes the implications of the Dutch-Indian War.
Dutch colonial possessions will have to be redefined, as will Dutch infrastructure. I would expect a modest increase over Indian and Greek starting levels.
Existing diplomatic ties will have to be honored.
Assuming these conditions are accepted, I will vote "Yes"

I think HoOmAn makes excellent points.

The original Russo-French alliance was directed against a player who was running a soon-to-be-combined Germany and Italy. There were indications, like his alternative history naval website, and a few others, that he was going to be a bit aggressive. It was my firm intention to be *extremely* un-accomodating with him. The alliance with Atlantis was to make the containment of Germany-Italy even more firm.

our present German and Italian players are models of moderation.

Italy has right-wing fanatic in it's gouvernnement et it is about, or wants to, destroy the Hellenic navy and conquer Greece. Of course after that there is a straight line from Greece to Moscow![]()

If you were up to Aowwt standards, you'd have 8 1000-meter slips constructed secretly by now, with 250,000 ton battleships being built on each, financed by a slush fund set up by some shipping magnate so that you aren't limited by the production of your factories, which are committed to building a set of Treaty-compatible battlecruisers and carriers.
