NDNES


Intro: Welcome to my first NES. This NES will be a fantasy fresh-start. Things may not seem too odd when the NES starts, things will begin to become strange as time goes on. You must be weary and stay on your toes if you wish to succeed in this NES. I will try to keep things fairly simple so that I may update quickly. However, please do not bug me for an update. Doing so may affect your nation in a negative way as well as lower my respect for you. Also, if I deem something "stupid" or "insane" I have the right to ignore it. You cannot build trains from trees or invent jet packs.

Civilization is starting to form on a strange world. Small kingdoms are forming around life-sustaining rivers as agriculture supports the rising populations. However, this is no ordinary world. Things may happen that we could only imagine happening in out world. But exactly what will happen, only time will tell.

Please fill out the template below and post where you want your country to start off at.

Country name
Government
Military (leave blank)
Economy (leave blank)
Description:


Country Name: What you want your country to be named. I’ll be fine with most names. Just don’t make them vulgar or insanely long.

Government: What you want your government to be. You may include in your orders to change this. However, change it too much or at a bad time and you may make your people angry.

Military Spending: The basic costs for military are as follows:

1EP will get you: 500 Spearmen, 200 Archers, 100 Horsemen, 300 Ax-men, 10 Ships.

Unique Units are allowed. Just tell me what you want yours to be and I’ll tell you if it is possible to use and how much it costs.

Economy: Your economy will be represented with a number. That number will be how much you can spend and invest into different things. Your economy will be affected by many things. Civil wars or droughts will have a negative affect on your economy while finding a large amount of gold and finding a profitable trade route will have a positive affect.

You may spend Economy Points on other things besides military and cities. Perhaps you want to pay 2EP to build a gigantic wall around your country. That would be fine with me.

Cities may be constructed for 2EP. They may have various effects on your country, depending on where you build them.

Description: Say what your country is like. Please remember that everyone’s country is going to start out fairly small, so don’t say your people are extremely numerous and powerful.

Orders: There will be a two PM limit. Please send no more. This being a fairly simple NES, I think this is reasonable. Please have your title be (country name)s Orders for NDNES

Good. Now I even have a name for that river. Feel free to name different things such as mountain ranges and oceans. All your templates seem okay with me. If I can get just a couple more templates I could start the update.
 
(Give the game a full title!)
 
Under these conditions ;)

1. Name it: NdNES: Islets of Langedoon
2. Wack me in as a generic barbarian race upriver from other civ's
3. Please use the direct link for photos and spoiler it (So I don't have to open another webpage, and deal with popups)
4. Pretty up your OP.. or perhaps you would like me to create a nice one for you?

1. No
2. I could arrange this.
3. Umm, maybe. I'm not too good with images for the time being. However, I'll try my best.
4. I could try this.
 
It's refreshing to have a NES without a subtitle. Keep it as it is! And Lord Aiken, don't go around trying to make people change things like that. It's almost like that time Abaddon was insisting that people 'had' to get avatars.
 
:p to you, even if I respect you as a fellow Lord.
