IOT Developmental Thread

[CivOasis]

Among other things I suspect forum rules do not allow the posting of, it has terrible formatting...

No offense, but IOT's doing just fine here. You've only got about a dozen players, for most games.

 

[Robert Can't]

Unless I get to spam accounts for RP characters. THEN it's worth my time.

That in itself is a good enough reason for anything.

 

[SouthernKing]

IOT IMO is really more suited for a smaller audience.

How is this coming along?

I have everything I need; the Map, the Rules, a decent RNG, some free time, ect. The only reason I haven't posted the thread is that I've been too lazy to.

I could start tomorrow, but I'd much rather not compete with Iron & Blood II, so IOT VII.5 will most likely start near the end of the school year.

Bwhaaaaaat? A b-list host using common sense when starting a game?

Wow, now I really want to play your game.

For every four nations, there can be one major religion. With GM approval, a limited number of players can create major religions, their ideology, etc. provided they're not trollish, stupid, meme-based, or otherwise annoying. The player nation's capital territory (which counts as a fort) will become the holy city. 75% of the player's nation will start as adherents of that religion. Nations nearby will have 25%.

This translates to "nothing awesome unless it was worshiped by the Norse, Egyptians, or Greeks."

And now for something completely different.

My lord and master is John Cleese.

I like it son. Would attempt to play although time might constrict me.

Cool I can't wait.

Okay SO, I'm planning to restart the EU3 IOT with fewer countries and simplified(For me) rules. First step is to decrease the amount of countries, which means I have to merge countries.

In other words, I need help deciding what makes sense to merge. I've already started with the help of Mech.

Spoiler :

So who makes sense to merge at this point?

 

[Mosher]

Novgorod and Pskov.

 

[CivOasis]

Bar into Burgundy.

 

[Mosher]

Saxe-Launeburge -> The Hansa

Mecklenburg -> Pommerania

Navarra -> Aragon

Granada -> Castille

All of the Anatolian minors -> Ottomans

Montenegro -> Serbia

Aquilia -> Venice

The pink and orangeish OPMs next to Brandenburg -> Brandenburg

Gelre & Friesland -> Holland

Brittany -> France

Translyvania -> Hungary

Liguria & Corsica to Savoy, Azow and Kaffa to the Golden Horde

Holstein -> Denmark

 

[Double A]

I think you should keep Brittany around to prevent France from being too OP at the start.

 

[Tyo]

It will be.

Thanks to HJ, Mosher, mech+others for suggestions thus far.

Spoiler :

Still thinking about splitting Genoa. Any other suggestions?

 

[Double A]

I think you should turn it into 2 provinces.

 

[SamSniped]

...Doesn't Genoa own the province Azow? It does in IN, I know
