on a scale of 1 to 10, sensei, how much BS heavy infantry armor is in AMURICA's future

Similarly, I had a great deal of fun working in the Moskurg propaganda machine.

Same here. The game wouldn't have been the same without all the semi-sincere, occasionally underhanded, always heated propaganda on both sides.

[Funk]

Both sides propaganda was really allot of fun and made us in to more than team A and B.

That depends, perhaps, on the events of some future forum game. I have already given though to how the non-historical technology you guys made (mainly metal infantry armor and early assault rifles) would affect the battles and tech development of the second world war, but I don't particularly want to divulge, in case I DO continue this setting and people are inclined to base their decisions on what I say now.

It was also great fun to write! Plus, the competition was always high due to worthy opponents like iituem. He was very good,  for a moskurg.

[Kot]

It was also a great damn fun to draw it all, a shame I never got to make more.

[Kashyyk]

Ah yes, the GOYRL medal, highest honour in the Arstotzkan military.

So what do people think the odds of someone deciding to take the plunge and make a tvtropes page for this?

tvtropes? What's that?

If you do continue this setting, I'd love to play more in it someday. And who knows, my team might actually win if another game goes off!

It's funny, I did consider the premise of a Syndicate-style twenty minutes in the future Forenia game, in which the players are the design teams of two competing corporations and you're outfitting cyborgs, but I have nowhere near enough familiarity with weapons to make such a game so.  :B

Yeah, going into future tech you really need to know what you are doing.  Something someone could do is run a game set in 1939 with the players in charge of a small landlocked nation that is one of the ground zeroes for an invasion from Hell after a Salvation War-esque message occurs.  The engineers of the nation (maybe have it be switzerland?) are tasked to design the tools to beat back the legions of Hell and potentially counter invade.

We almost had something similar to that, with the joke Arms Race against Ice Giants because salt mines. I would totally dig that, and I actually think it would be much better becuase Arstotzka and Moskurg would have to work together against them, instead of this kind of a forced merging of both nations. Honestly, I could easily see Forenia breaking in half in like, few years. Maybe the Germans will get annoyed and help one side break out, because peace means no new technologies, and we will end in Tropico 5 style game where one side supports Axis, the other Allies and assorted shenanigans.

EDIT:
What about Great Martian War?
EDIT:
It's an actually cool "documentary" made for History Channel (well, that's still much better than whatever rednecks they show right now, and is actually cool, if not very historical) which is actually cool.

[Sensei]

Hey Kids!

Want more Arms Race?

I've started another Arms Race Game- it's here on the Spacebattles forums. This takes place on its own fictitious continent, Turbados, which may one day rival Forenia in a Spacebattles VS Bay12 war. Regardless of this, anyone who wants to play more Arms Race is welcome to join over there, and the game could use a few enthusiastic players.

With Turbados starting half century behind techwise I strongly doubt that such war can be interesting. They need to do something outstanding to catch up.
