World in Balance
« on: April 17, 2010, 06:26:10 pm »

Map.

Turn format.
Quote
Research:

Anything that has to do with research. No more, no less.

Map Changing:

Anything at all that changes the map. ANYTHING. This includes making new units, fixing up old units, disbanding armies/scuttling ships, ceding land to others etc. If it makes a change to the map, no matter how slight, it goes here.

Military Production:
Where new units should be made, and what kind of units?

Everything Else:

Anything else you want to happen. Basically, this is the stuff I will be typing into the turn. Do NOT put anything into this category that changes the map, or has anything to do with research!!!

Finally, if you ever have anything to change about your turn, simply send the entire turn over again with edited details, and title your PM "WiB TURN CHANGE" (or something to that effect) and I will delete the previous one from the inbox. This prevents clutter, and will make the turn posting smoother and easier for me

Nation sheet.
Quote
Name:
Capital: (You will start correlating to that city in real life, but you can rename)
Colour:
Religion/beliefs:

There will be different Epochs.
Stone age (Farms and stone tools)
Bronze age (First metals and stuff)
Iron age (Roman like era)
Dark age (Arabian tech and for some the fire-thrower)
Medieval age (Early gunpowder weapons and that)
Renaissance age (Guns, Pikes, long distance exploration)
Colonial age (Colonization of New world and that)
Enlightenment age (Heavy ships, powerful muskets and early factories)
Industrial age (Railways, Factories, Steel ships, gatling guns)
Imperial age (Machine guns, gas, aeroplanes)
Modern age (Early computers, Cars, atomic bombs)
Digital age (Advanced computers, ICBMS, early space flight)
Space age (Lasers, space colonies, the communist colony on Mars)

Also some other things:

Cities appear in the bronze age along with armies. I have done this before, and failed, but now I have figured how it works. If this system described above seems stupid and you have bothered to read this far, you can either leave an insulting note in the reply or a non-insulting one. The choice is yours my friend.

Research formula.

This formula will be used: T=(n/f)/R
T = Total Tech Gain
n = Random number 1-50
f = difficulty
R = Number of researches being held, if the number of researches being held is 1 then it is automatically put at 2.

You can research anything you like at any time, results will vary though.

If this system described above seems stupid and you have bothered to read this far, you can either leave an insulting note in the reply or a non-insulting one. The choice is yours my friend.

Begins when 4 or more people join, when i post turn 1 you send in turn sheets.

Spamming TURN will result in bad things.

There's about 25 of the fuckers and the three sarge killed were at point blank range - it's got to be zombies or a bunch of really dumb terrorists with knives.

Some Background infos would be nice, too.

Like:

-Which technologies do we have at the start? How many troops? Ressources? etc. etc.

I'd really like to join if there's room, but before I do do you think you could send me an example of a typical order for maybe one or two turns? Danka

Spoiler (click to show/hide)
That very small red circle is around where York is, and that small black circle shows where Hastings is.
Basically York is Northern Britain and Hastings is Southern Britain.

Yeah, such an example would be nice. I already sent my turn sheet in, but i honestly had no clue what i should do since i never played a similiar game.

/Oh please let at least the seal god play! We need some vikings. (And i need a varangian guard.)
