Welcome to BirdNES 2 "The Forge of Empires".​

This thread is the general discussison thread for this game. There are three other threads where the actual game is being played: one thread for each cradle of civilization. The cradles are called the Animas Valley; the Manipur Coast and the Manonash. Posts specific to a cradle are found in that thread and general game questions are answered in this thread.

I will post announcements related to all three cradles in this thread. It will also be a place for general discussions about the game, rules, updates, questions etc.

Links to the cradles:

Taking OOC stuff from the Manonash thread:

We will earn the right to the eligible bachelorette through NESing duel! He who wins this NES wins the hand of Ms. Bird's daughter.
People don't 'WIN' NESes. :mad:
;)

Phoenix is 7-8 hours by car.
Sometimes they forget that our countries are big.

"You can fly for six hours and still be in the same country."

"Wow. You have slow planes."

Jose? JOSE? Please don't tell me you think my name is José F. Stalinator.

EDIT: Er, sorry bird. From here on out this will be taken to the OOC thread.
Signor Stalinatoro!
 
Will there be no NPC's for new players to join? Or will the NPC's all be barbarian hordes?
I do not know yet. I have things planned, but until I get through the first turn I am leaving myself lots of options. I have an NPC of sorts in the Animas Valley, but that nation is not available for player control.

As nations grow and weak nations disappear (ie the player count drops a bit) then I can see NPCs appearing that could be taken over. Or if nations here get establsihed and much expanded, I could start another cradle. There are lots of possibilities.
 
Orders in: dldnjstjr, Luckymoose and Verily. Thanks.
 
With clear goals and a well defined spending list, it is pretty easy to work with short orders. Thank you Alex.

My pleasure, but I'll like to note I crammed all of the details I just adore into the Time line section so you may want to hold off on your thanks ;)
 
So what was with all the talk about Bird's daughter? If the guy (most likely approaching or already 40 or above) didn't have it bad enough just being around us. :p
 
it all started when he said that his daughter was hot.
 
You don't want to rumble, then don't tread on a person's toes. :p
 
I'll be happy to take up the point with you Symphony, however, our debate won't change either of our opinions, and will spam a thread.

But if you do wish to discuss the nature of NESing again, I'll be in While we Wait... :)
 
Bird, how exactly would you descibe the island chain in the Manonash? I know how you commented on the fauna and weather, but would you descibe them as peak-ish, or more of a gentle landscape?

The islands are rugged and mountainous (but too high mountains) and as you move south from the temperate rainforest north, they get dryer and dryer.
 
I will [post a list of] the "bad boys" without orders later tonight.
