Expanding on a thing discussed in the Discord, some Forenian Fluff;

Forenia has, since the end of the war, rapidly acquired a new national sport. The game of 'Forenian Football' (Or Forenian Soccer, depending on who you ask) is a pleasant game that all can enjoy. The rules specifically penalise violence.
Now, I know what you're thinking. You're thinking, that doesn't sound like a national sport that either Moskurgers or Arstotzkans could get behind. Well, I never said that Forenian Football was the national sport. The national sport comes after a game of Forenian Football. For as soon as a game ends, fans pour out of the stadium, either already or soon to be drunk- and swiftly run into fans from the other team. Naturally, this results in fisticuffs, as the gentlemen (or ladies) have some disagreement as to which team is better, and which rules infractions the ref missed (the rules of FF being so complex that no-one can truly tell when this happens).
Yes, rioting is the new national sport of Forenia. For even though Nationalism is banned (in favour of Continentalism), after a few drinks the urge to fight those cold-hearted/tiger-loving bastards rears its ugly head. Fortunately, the rioting is only occasionally deadly, and only results in minor property damage, most of the time. And it gets the urge to fight each other out of Forenian's systems, so they can focus on fighting those BLOODY PIRATES.

Good, but I think it's got way too much going on at once. Personally, I think you should simplify the tigers and swords and remove the words.
Swap one of the tigers for a bear and put them both facing the star, the supporters trend to face inwards on most coat of arms.

Agree, plus that's about the LAST thing *I* want to see from this kind of game - author spending valuable development time on useless graphics.

Another flag option, if you'd prefer to use purple instead of red and blue;

I'll vote for it on the basis that two of the stars seem to be holding swords.  I think I know which provinces those two represent.

As for the styles in game with that techblust.


1: Alliances so two teams of three nations. They design/ fund/ redo their country efforts and die rolls for results in theatres of war.


2: The original version. Each player controls one whole country in a alliance. And development points are earned by game play on a weekly basis.


Cost issues: Depends. As both have logistics so can afford more stuff. In general the more powerful something is. More expensive. Like only three super units a theatre pre nation at a time ( if you could afford that anyway.)

I think maybe you meant to post this in the other thread? The one about arm race games in general. This is about a specific game.

Okay, great. Anyone else got opinions on which flag we should use? Only Sensei is awaiting our decision with bated breath. Personally I kinda like the above version, so if it comes down to tiebreakers I'll vote for it, but I'd be fine with pretty much anything proposed so far.

Those flag options raise the question of what sort of government United Forenia has. Personally I'd prefer a flag that doesn't too strongly push us in one direction or another- if only because if we, for example, choose an obviously communist flag and then ally with the axis... well, it'd be awkward.
