Well, like i said. This isn't the main game, but you lot who help test it out will be allowed in the proper version when i run it. Currently I'm working on a stats/attribute/modifier system that i hope is easy to understand. We're also going to be using my friends new idea. FATE CARDS, basically these will be given out randomly with numbers that modify each of your attributes for that turn only. I'll get back to you lot later. And no, austrailia didn't sink :D

Blizzard is managed by dark sorcerers, and probably have enough money to bail-out the federal government.

No, since plate tectonics would not work like that. For one, Australia atm is moving north into south-east Asia by a few cm a year, it would take MILLIONS of years for it to hit Asia.

Fine. It turns out that a catastrophic earthquake hit, tearing Austraialia asunder and sinking it's shattered fragments beneath the waves. The problem was exacerbated by the polar icecaps melting.

At least the cane toads are gone, eh mate?

If Australia gets ripped apart I demand that Los Angeles does, too. At least that place has a reason to.

EDIT: Yeah that wouldn't work, we never ever get destructive Earth Quakes.

Unfortunately, they are not, at least only gone from Australia.

BUT THEN WE LOST KOALAS...

Paul James before creating Defense Corp kept a private zoo, he raised many animals. Among them rare Australian Native Animals, Kangaroos, Wombats, Koalas and the like. Each successive CEO after Paul James was given a pair of Koalas as a present, the zoo is now owned and operated by Defense Corp, with many branches in space and across many planets.

I'm fine with this.

I didn't know it at all.

Until now, that is.

And I prefer civilian cars for spying. There's way more of them around and they don't arouse suspicion when parked often in the same area. Not that I was spying on you, of course. As I said, I didn't know where you lived until now.

Combat wombats?

Sorry Emperor jonathan. its 3am here and im typing with the keyboard in my lap. And my eyes are going weird. And by default i can't spell normally. Anyhoo. I'll give you a run down of what we have RIGHT NOAW!

So! you get 2 actions per turn. (increase your attributes, research some neat stuff etc.)
and minor actions. (As many as you want, basically this is the RP part, and if its interesting i'll add some modifiers to your roll!)

So far we have Stats/Attributes and fate cards.
So stats, this is how your currently fairing in the universes eyes. Public and government appealing's. (These two are basically you HP. The face of a corporation is EVERYTHING remember). money and espionage.
Attributes: Pub. Relations, Politics, Industry, Research, Economics and Espionage
The economy: In general, its effected by the fate card's rolls on economics. You income is based of industry (a basic amount depeneding how many points you put in industry.) the economy and the current climate (effected by the FATE CARDs).
and of course the modifiers to your current turn.
heres a link to the current excel picture.

Edit: A look at hte fate card, sorry boksi forgot :D http://img6.imageshack.us/img6/2045/turncardexample.jpg

Edit: Should explain the fate cards. Basically they're going to be 6 randomly generated numbers that effect your Attributes, you'll each be given a jpeg of a set of 6 numbers and what area they effect. These, as you can see above, effect alot of stuff.

Hmmm. I get the basic idea. I have but one question:

Will the fate card have names?
