Which Era do we set the game in  

The Next Century  - The next Era, who knows what wonders, or horrors, await)

Twenty minutes into the future.  - 2020-2030

Renaissance  - 19the century

The Age of Discovery - 1500-1600

Feudal Era -800-1200 AD Europe

The Classic Cultures - Greece/ Early Rome

Ancient Middle East - Egypt, Babylon,

Other

Realism:

World of Magic - A world where the laws of physics are considered guidelines. There are only few who do not defy reality on a daily basis

Part of Society - Reality defying things are an integral part of society.

Balanced - While magic or other reality defying things exist, they're not prominent.

Realism Extra - Though the extraordinary exists, it's rare. Trying to find or exploit it will require significant investment in resources.

Cold, hard realism - No magic of any kind of shape. The laws of physics are harsh, and undefeatable.

World

Garden World - An expansive world with a multitude of resources, fertile ground and large human population

Earth - Though harmed by the past, and certainly not perfect, the world is still a good home to it's human population

Wasteland - The world is a massive inhospitable wasteland, its resources are scarce, its population small. Humanity gathers around those places which enjoy a relative abundance of resources

Setting:

A New Golden Age - A true Golden Era dawns for humanity. Innovation, Industry, and Society explore new boundaries. Tales of this era will last for centuries.  

 A Bright Future - For a variety of reasons, humanity prospers. There's relative peace, and all is going well.

Stable - Humanity stagnates, but is still far from decay. While Innovation might be hard to find, there's relative peace, and people are happy.

The Lights are going out - Several nations are at war, many still remain neutral, but the number of battles, and war declarations are growing by the week.

A Dark Age - An all out war has covered the world. Military forces are clashing all over the lands. The effects of this are unknown, but Tales of this era will last for centuries.

why was he talking about colonizing new lands then?

[Taricus]

It's not colonising "new" land, just colonising uninhabited land.

[3man75]

It's not colonising "new" land, just colonising uninhabited land.

Um, school taught me that colonising meant finding new land..wouldn't that be known as expanding or moving into?

[Playergamer]

The definition I got was just to send a group do settlers somewhere

[Taricus]

Nope, it's just refers to establishing a colony. Pretty much what Playergamer said.

[Parsely]

Colonization always involves unexplored and either unclaimed or unexploited territory. Brits in Africa, India, America.

If the land is just uninhabited then that's settling. American frontier is a good example. The US owned the land (usually) that they were pushing into, it was just wild.

[3man75]

if what your saying is true Gun then somebody owes me their support for misuse of language!!!

*not. anyways lets have a good war debate

[Taricus]

India was not unexplored Gunin. And if anyone wants to debate about the word, please read this first: http://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/colony

[3man75]

Excuse me as i re-write that for a minute..lol

He should have said "settle" instead of colonize but honestly? screw it lets not stop the game over that! 

[Taricus]

Right now it's interchangable, so who cares

[10ebbor10]

Anyway, added assets and such. However, I had more limited internet access than I initially expected.

Anyway, there're a lot of percentages being thrown around. However, just a question, are you going to invest everything, including the 5000 credit reserves, or only the income?

[Taricus]

TCM, I'd like to point out we are in a communist dictatorship. I mean, just look at the nation name

[TCM]

"Equality act, the specific parts you're requesting, being around paragraph 16 to paragraph 40."

Ebbor, how are we supposed to handle stuff like this in regards to what laws have already been passed and are in effect before the game started?
