The NES Welcome everyone. It has been a very long time since I've ran a NES, over three years I believe, but I have some free time and a lot more experience now, and so I wanted to give this another go. As you will see while reading the rules this NES is not exactly like most others on the...

stSBNES6 “Through the Valley of Death" OVERVIEW I am very excited to be starting this NES. I must first of all thank everyone who had helped me along with putting it together. First of all Das and Panda for helping me with the map. Stalin006, and JosefStalinator helped with much of...

Well, I am getting back into NESing, and I am sad to see that there are only a few really good NESes going on around. Almost no experienced mods are around, and definatley nobody from back when I was an active player. So to rectify the situation I have decided that I can dedicate enough time...

So I have to say that I was pleased with the first AAR Josef and I did while it lasted. There was a lot of fun in watching the same country go into different directions. So now we decidied that we both have time to try this again. For a second country we decided (neither one of us wanted to...

Concept My last NES failed because only a few people were willing to go along with the complex rules that it required. On the other hand quite a few people did want complicated rules that make the NES more realistic. After pondering this for a while I decided to come up with the rule concept...

Does anyone want me to start a very quick-paced fresh start NES with pretty basic rules? I am very discouraged by the way my last NES turned out, nobody seemed to like it although everyone said they were excited for it when I posted the preview, so I am not willing to invest a lot of time into...

JosefStalinator and I both play a historical strategy game called Europa Universalis, many of you have probably heard of it. We talk about our games quite a bit online, and one day an idea struck me, what if we were to play a game as the same country and compare how we do? Josef liked the idea...

So, as I have told a few of you already I am going to start a NES. It is going to be based on the wonderful althistory that Das has written, and will start in 1936. I will re-post the althistory here, so you all do not have to go hunting through the althistory thread to go find it, and then...

Alright, so I really need an mp3 player. Until recently I had a cd player in my car, so at least I listened to music there, but now I have a new car without a cd player there, finally pushing me to buy an mp3 player, something I should have done a while back anyways. Well, I spent two days...

Ok, so I am writing a term paper for college for international political econ, and ran into a problem. I started by trying to look at the different economic reforms proposed in the USSR in the 80's, analyze them all, figure out why 'shock therapy' was eventually chosen and why it failed...

Five history/political science students could not come to a decision on this one, so lets see where this will go here. The question is: Could the Soviet Union have survived, perhaps in a reformed form, if the events of August 19-22 1991 have gone differently and the GKCHP have suceeded in taking...

Ok, first quarter at the University is over and I am now fully back to NESing. The next quarter will be a lot easier so I expect to have plenty of free time, and having looked around found that there is no modern NES going on right now. Now, I know many people do not like modern NESes, they...

Alright, here is the finished map of Eurasia and North Africa. All 15 civs that are in the area have their starting locations more or less correct. I am no geography major, so I am sure there are plenty of mistakes that I hope to fix along the way, but I need you to tell me what they are...
