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.

Don't bother, the thread serves better as a discussion thread for GUNINANRUN's games

That seems like a good move in all honesty. Ebbor can just throw out a few generalisations how our society is when he wants to that aren't related to it being a communist dictatorship

This being a sorta-communist, sorta-democratic-republic, sorta-government-market, sorta-free-market thing we have going on.

Tarmavsol reminds me of a Russian Republic that split from the death of the USSR and is still trying to grasp exactly how being a nation works.

[3man75]

Man, this should be a historical painting. Torri holding her facing, Playergamer's guy pointing a gun at Raul as they yell at each other while Taricus storms out of the room. "The First Assembly of the Republic."

I'd love to see what pirate man and Hitler have to say about this.

Also, is it fair if I retconned though social policies from before, like they were never brought up? Ebbor said he hasn't decided on how he wants to handle it, so until he decides, I think we should stay out of the past and focus on current and future policy.

+1 we need a fucking artist right NOW! Also wasn't hitler into making paintings before ww1 or something like that?

an +2 on just staying on the current issues for the "second assembly".

EDIT: player gamer omg if i could clap for you i would, damn fine work right there lol.

...We have a free market? Also I'm pretty sure we do have a dictator, that 30% of the assembly has to follow someone doesn't it?

40% remember your guys all capitalist what not.

[Taricus]

I am not capitalist thank you very much. :|

[TCM]

The 30% are unaffiliated wild cards, they're not supporting anyone, they're the ones that everyone wants to persuade, because an extra free ten or twenty support points is a big deal.

[10ebbor10]

Nah, no dictator so far. The nation had one, but he's been mostly reduced to a figurehead in recent times.

Anyway, let's give a general view of the nation. It's indeed a very makeshift republic. Still retaining most of it's communistic roots, it has done some liberalization in the past. Still limited however, and most of the economy is run by competing government owned institutions. Social policy and structure is also very makeshift. Guaranteed good education is one thing, but for the most part social systems exist either to benefit the government *  or to quell unrest.


* Both males and females in army = Easier recruiting/ conscription



((FYI, the blandness of the nation is the result of the fact that I originally planned to have 2 more 50 options questionnaires to run through before t ))

sorry aren't you the chairman?

[Taricus]

Unfortunately I'm not the chairman

[3man75]

Unfortunately I'm not the chairman

Oh well SOMEONE in that assembly is the owner of a mineral gathering company. I think he was a worker who worked his way up the unions to be the boss. Or something like that. He might be capitalist or just a union boy.

[Taricus]

That was ghaz

[3man75]

sorry ghaz.

Please be an awesome Capitalist like J.P. Morgan.

[TCM]

Guys? I think you're hijacking a bit again...

[BlitzDungeoneer]

Well, this is certainly amusing. Ah the backstabbing, the bluffs... Reminds me of Neptunes Pride.
Incidentally, I'm totally making a similar game when I'm finished my RTDs.
