From Napoleon to Bush and beyond

[mitsho]

I would, if I had time and the knowledge to mod THIS game. I've never modded this game before.

so, sorry, and I REALLY hope that you'll find someone else

 

[Straczynski]

As Exel requested, I'll try to do some work on the trees.

 

[Straczynski]

First draft on the first tree...

 

[Straczynski]

There should be an arrow from Steam Power to Industrialization, BTW.

 

[mitsho]

I would suggest an arrow from steam engine to Industrialization (not from steam power?)

I wouldn't also make Laissez-faire requiring marxism. It's a bit weird, because the theories are opposite to each other.

the Nationalism tree, I'm not satisfied with it My suggestion (=means nothing ) :


======================Centralization====Marxism
==========================¦============¦
Nationalism -> Constitution -> Parliamentarism -----¦
==========================¦============¦
====================Foederalization==Laissez-faire

With each Centralization or Foederalization, you can build a small wonder. If the Centralization wonder is build, it's impossible to build the Foederalization wonder (Is this possible?)

And then:
================Marxism
==================¦
Industrialization --> economic theories
==================¦
===============Laissez-faire

 

[Straczynski]

As I said, it was only a draft. I'll rework it later today.

 

[mitsho]

yes, k and the sense of this thread is to discuss the suggestions, not? I only wrote down, what I think/ what my suggestions are.

I've been away for a while, but now I'm back. The tech tree drafts look promising - keep up the good work.

I've been thinking about the eras a bit, and here's one possibility that has come to mind:

1 - Napoleonic era
2 - Victorian era
3 - World at War
4 - Information / Atomic / Modern era

If the division would be done to three eras instead, then I would combine Napoleonic and Victorian era.

Anyway, now that we have the first tech tree sketches, I'd better start my mind to work on the units.

 

[Grey Fox]

Why don't you make the tech tree Exel?

 

[Exel]

Because it's beyond my skills.

 

[Straczynski]

Sorry for not posting the trees... I've been kinda busy these last few days... Anyway, I'll try to post them later today!

 

[mitsho]

yor eras are good. But i wouldn't call the first and second like this. I think, it's a world mod and one is too french and the other too anglosaxon (for my sense).

Why not nationalistic era for number one (I know it's historically wrong, but nothing better comes to my mind) and imperialistic era for the second (not very accurate too). But they sound better in my ears than just names from guys (or ladys (argh, I hate the Gender discussion).
