Guide to NESing!

on AI's for NES's (post inspired by Toukun NES)

like 1d20 = 1: LAND-GRABBER
= 2: Agressive
and so on...
= 20 stronghold player

next 1 d20 1: rounding out the territory
2: attacking weak spots
and so on...

1-8 launch planned offensives
9-12 as previous + oppertunism
13--324- : careful and so on


Of course using die rolls will make the PC behave irrationaly, so that's why you write down past decisions and shift the next dice roll

This AI has a good record because it's based on human intelligence and develops a personality more or less you can't foresay. Of course every now and then you'll make a string of extreme rolls which will be weird, but sometimes people are that way too; it's more likely, unfitting and extreme with die rolls though but it really helps on these problems to have a developed AI instead of running virgin AI's w/ no tweaking at 0% likelihoof of doing certain stupid things.

One might want to add a subroutine here and there by contingency:

Huh, I should prolly post this in NES'ing guide.
 
Just realised you do mean it for board game NESs. To be honest for board games it can be easier to do the NPCs yourself, but I agree that a dice roll or two to decide policy could make it better...

One could use it for roleplaying as well, would probably be even more appropriate. ;) Just as long as one doesn't grow too sympathetic with favored nations.
 
Ok, just curious

Is it ok if I use a map and some details from other NES'es? I have allready PM-ed 2 people about the map and someone about the details....but I just wandered if this is normal to do....:)
 
Its normal, everybody is doing that (they mostly steal from me, but meh, that's details).
 
Ok....just edited the map for my NES...Road to History
 
Yeah someone must document the syndromes certain NESers have,like Cleric syndrom,switching to a socialist government for little to no reason(like the das Nes when I changed my government during a war with Hungary which effectivly split my nation in two,still cant believe I survived) :lol:
 
i dont have a syndrome (apart from the obvious joke), genocide isnt much of a syndrome everyone used to do that.

Yes but who has done it in as many NES's as me? (China, India, Arbai, Iberia, Italy, Brazil, sort of as Bactarsha etc.....) I started genociding/flip flopping in my first NES and and I continue to do it to this day.
 
switching to a socialist government for little to no reason

"Cleric variation of the Sheep syndrome". ;)

"das syndrome" probably doesn't exist, but if it does, its "stomping out civil freedoms and generally being not "nice" to anybody around me".

you do it so much it means nothing now, you've Ruined genocide for me, just like Xen and Alex ruined Rome and China.
 
Never liked Rome and China, too generic.
 
I think I ruined the Mongols by using them far to much. I think I'll stick to Europe for a while now...

The challenge is to build a China that is significantly different then the one in OTL. Look at the China i built in your nes for example ;) One third of the country is infamous for it's merchant's tricks, another third has sworn eternal loyalty to the Han Dynasty, another third is made of people who think every Emperor who has new ideas is Mad. And you can't forget the extremely wierd Government Processes! :lol:
 
Note: If you get pwned as a n00b, don't despair and don't open vendettas. Learn from the experience and use it to make yourself a better and more balanced NESer, which is ultimately more satisfying. (Or so they say. I don't really know, never having become a good or balanced NESer.)
