AS they have said above, orders and stats are but a small part of the updating process. If that was the only elements I need as we did in the old days, this would be a easy matter of repair and the update would be posted by now. Anyways, sending in orders is not nessecary as I saved all orders to Word after recieving them, as I knew already that I was going to have issues (though not how severe).
The elements you see on these pages, as crezth suggested, are but the tip of the iceberg. While updating I (for a normal update, not a world war) have six word documents, one excel document, two MS paint .gifs, Calculator, two to three windows or tabs of internet explorer, and a RNG program. As for an update on the update, we'll know by Monday whether this is going to have to go on haitus for a while.
To be honest, this incident has led me to thinking on the future of ABNW and other possiblities for NESes. At the moment, I believe we are nearing what may be the climax of this NES, and I believe we'll only keep this NES going for maybe another 5-6 months (real time). Because of this, I have started working on finalizing my next "big" NES: TWTUD in Space. This will be a fresh start (to a degree) NES with some preexisting nations, based on the conclusion of that NES. We will be ignoring the disastrous TWTUD 2 for this upcoming effort, and the emphasis will be on non-traditional states, such as colonies, corporations, pirates, or rebel groups. The current ruleset will focus entirely on allowing the players to focus on whatever (or all) efforts they'd choose among those. The ruleset at the moment is a adaption of ABNW 2 stats and rules, avoiding the walls of text of the abortive TWTUD 2. Planetary maps will be provided as well as a overall Galactic Map, but with the current ruleset they will NOT actually be needed for the NES. The nations at the start will be available to their original players, with one or two open to anyone quick or willing to take them. These nations are: Union of Federated States, India, Germania, United Republic of Afrika, Union of Soviet Socialist Republics, Dar-al-Islam, and the East Asian Co-Prosperity Sphere.
