Regeneration In Process
It is Wednesday - time to post this thread, the primary objective of which is, ofcourse, giving me something of a better excuse for my continued procrastination in the matter of reviving ITNES I.
Now, before you mob me angrily, I must mention that there are other, less important objectives - for instance, confirming that I WILL restart ITNES I sometime in late October/early November 2006 AD. And listing the things that I plan to do before then in connection to the resurrection (in no particular order): Read up on ITNES I again, revive the ITNES I History Thread, write an IT III summary update, write a BT III update, draw the post-BT III map, do a general rules revision, write up the stats and write a polar bear story. Then we could begin, I suppose; my schedule isn't quite as bad as I had feared, in a few weeks I'll adapt sufficiently to mod a weekly-updated NES.
Another function of this thread is the development of this NES; now, ofcourse I'll develop it by myself, but any contributions you could make would be appreciated. In particular, I intend to do a general rule revision; probably nothing VERY radical, but there shall be some serious changes, on the exact nature of which I am still pondering. In the meantime, I'd appreciate it if you were to post your suggestions and grievances here; I will take them into consideration, but cannot promise anything beyond that, still, know that it would be very helpful. I'll probably also post my ideas here, up for popular review - constructive criticism will also be taken into consideration, as will your blind, fanatical faith in the inherent goodness of my decisions.
For the ruleset, I intend to mix the ITNES I ruleset, NES2 VIb ruleset, some modifications made on the basis of the NES2 VIb rulest, some stuff stolen from fellow moderators (including NK) and some new ideas of my own.
And, ofcourse, this will be thread where I will post development information and you will ask silly questions that I will probably laugh off or answer with cryptic prophecies (this may or may not apply for the more sensible questions some of you might post; but what have you to lose?).
Oh, and any ideas on whether I should call it "ITNES Ib" or "ITNES II" or someting else?
