HAH! This shows the flaw in all present NESs, too many rules.

In this NES, yeah. Try UKNES3 or read through some of the past NESes - like ARTNES, or go to SUPERNES. Those NESes have rules without being too complicated.

Most don't have too many rules. I think you'll find that rules are often needed to prevent morons ruining it.

It depends on what way you view the NES. If you think of it as a true never ending story(like the first ever NES was *nostalgia setting in*), a NES which has people playing each nation(like Das's NESs) or a game(like the rule based NESs).

If you prefer the first, then you will probably not mind the second type, and vice versa, but you will not like the rule based NESs. If on the other hand you think of it as a game(partly or fully) then you will probably like the second two. It's a matter of personal taste - I see the NES as a game now. I find the first concept boring, but the second is still okay.

This NES looked cool, I would have joined if I'd had time(I still might if it regains its feet).

Well, I have been thinking about many comments on my threads and PMs I am thinking a good way to attempt another NES would be to try to restart this one, of course with The Troquelet leading it i hope?

I was too ambitious with SUPERNES - I'll be closing it soon unless at least 5 more players join, which is not very likely. :( Obviously we don't have 18 NESers... or, not all of them available at the same time.



But I AM going to put roleplaying elements in my next NES, which will be very small, 6 or 8 players. These would include royal marriages, different provinces having different values, trade, luxury, etc. So, it won't be as RISK-like as the other NESes.
