Looks cool, will post a sheet later this week.

Two questions:

Do you have a rulesystem that will work as the countries will become more complex. This seems to be the bane for most of this kind of games.

How many national focuses can you have?

Clarify what you mean by rulesystem; there are rules in place, but I don't quite understand the question.

You can have one national focus which can be changed at great expense; you can also have national ideas which can be acquired via power, advisors, and wealth.

Would I be correct in assuming that we are at a bronze-age level of development? Also, how prevalent are fantasy elements (i.e. magical races/artifacts/locations and so on)?

You are correct in that assumption.

Fantasy elements were widely cracked down upon and eliminated by Mann, but it's possible that with their collapse these elements could resurface. They are known of, but widely left alone except by certain mages.

One other thing: is Infrastructure a valid National Focus?

Okay, are non-human races/species able to be played in this at all? I know this sounds like Ruler's question, but I didn't think it was clear on this subject so...

Non-human races/species may be present OR sacred in your nation (Example: read TerranianWolf's post), but humans are always the majority race. And by majority, I mean like 95% of the people in your nation are human.

Aaahh, okay. I take it making that five percent into the ruling class would be acceptable?

Yes, having a ruling class of non-humans would be fine.

Can you explain a little bit more about the magic? If I want to do a magic-focused nation I need to know if Magic is a skill like any other (IE most people can get atleast some basic knowledge in magic" or if it is reserved for the lucky few?
