Captain2 and Canuck3 present: Conquest

- Still think it's silly, what kind of population would be demoralized because their government has announced an intent to try and kick someone ELSE'S ass? Basic propaganda will make it seem like they will do all the dying and we will reap their natural resources while restoring the rights of the oppressed minorities and deposing the cruel dictator (0-100% truth)!
It should be -2 for more powerful opponents declaring war on you or a trade blockade for example, something the population truly fears or feels the pain of.

-2 for declaring war is plain absurd. There should only be a morale loss if there's a reason to fear such an event as getting whupped because you've declared war on an obviously superior enemy. Loss of trade, devestating international opinion something concrete! You can't just say "oh, so you declare war on Albania for their (alleged) terrorism?!" Bad nationstate! Minus 2 morale for you!
C'mon, it's a mistake!

That said I don't care as long as the game gets started, it is looking good! :-)

why would you post somewhere saying you wont join a game? its counter productive, i could post in all the other NES's saying i wont play them, but it would be pointless. but this is a typically war based game with a reinforced peace, war is the main goal but we make it so its not just one huge uncivilized war

you post because you want the rules ot be adjusted to make is a better game then it may have been otherwise.
 
I know war is wrong but war has a proven effect to excite people. We're NES'ing for crying out loud, 50% is war. Unpopular wars are a wholly different thing.
 
Kal'th if you had actually read the second part of my post you would see that i said it takes 5 turns. 2 times 5 = 10 last time i checked.
 
Kal' meant the -2 is a one-time effect, not round by round if that is what you mean.
Doesn't make too much difference to me, this means that if I play Soviet Russia my population will be in widespread intense revolt because I declared war on The Baltic Countries, Ukraine and Finland.

The rule needs to be rescinded.

same here

Yes, there is a difference between protecting what is just and right and making the choice of others. ^_^
PS. That avie really does look like a pretty flower, orange and golden-red, *sigh* Tolkien art is good anyday. Maybe he should have focused more on floral beuty and less on the mighty/might of men? Lol
 
toteone, did you choose a country? and the rules will stay as is, it makes sense and it has only a minor effect if you dont declare on the world

you post because you want the rules ot be adjusted to make is a better game then it may have been otherwise.
well i dont see anything being recomended, i really have no clue what you would want
 
*sigh* I remember kicking the whole world's ass one-and-a-half at a time in Alpha Centauri. Screen up the diplo. box and after my accidental incident "affair" with Gaia's nutcracker and the whole wide world is in vendetta. Worked just fine w/ my religiously fanatical population..
(this was w/ lousy computer level at the horrible A.I. of Alpha Centauri but I had a funny little PC playing 'gainst me on hotseat. Mmmkay 's good memories)

Your maps are great and the rules are simple and functionable, but what are the statistics of our countries please? I assume this is a relevant time and age that we might refer to? The late 90's, the early aught-o/hundreds (200X), the year of 2005?
The mighty United States of America needs to know it's current situation. Do we have forces in Iraq, have the hurricanes recently struck New Orleans and Texas?
 
actually its based on a time period of your choice, but you can only control your homeland, except in the case of britian but all they have is an island and we will have stats but only once something happens to change make all countries uneven
 
yeah you talk to them like normal, the different age is just for customization feel
