IOT Organisational and Discussion Thread

Totally forgot we use this thread to advertise games.

Anyway, hey, RIOT. Three updates a week. Somewhat quick pace (relatively speaking). Egypt!

Riccio can always use more trade partners. Of doom!

And when we rebound we will bring everyone with us! :D

...I presume the chance of a boom infecting others is at least a little higher than the chance of a recession doing the same, anyway.

Actually, no. The chance of booms spreading is the same as downturns. I just nerf downturns whenever they happen. Like I said, your original downturn was enough to wipe out every factory in the game because of the pingponging.
 
SilliNES3: The Search for Imago

Expect this sometime before winter break!

Rules changes, discussion, and suggestions welcome!

Sounds cool!

So when will this new NES be set (i.e what technological progress ect)? And will this run on from SiliNES2? I would have joined that but school is really draining, by the time it gets to winter in...wherever you are I should be done though. :p
 
I'm thinking basically any time 1900-2050 is possible!

I won't run it directly from sillines2, but players can transport sillines2 nations if they remember the parameters, such as magical being merely a different form of tech. Mongol Dragons, for example, can be a Unique Unit that takes 20 levels of Dragon Taming to unlock.
 
The Answer is Your Imagination is looking for people to join and add details; I'll turn it into an actual game when it's done, but I need more people to fill out backstory, if anyone is interested in it. There's no obligation to play after you write if you don't want to, as well, and no obligation to write if you want to play later.
 
I've been thinking about my old Peshawar Lancers IOT, and here are three conclusions that I made:

  • It was wrong more me to add technological development. The whole point of the Peshwar Lancers was that the Fall screwed over civilisation so much that technological development was stalled for at least a century.
  • Likewise, I think my whole system of different zones for each level of devastation was too complicated. If I ever do another Peshawar Lancers game, I'll just see if I can penalise the people that start in Europe and North America, while treating territories in those areas normally for gameplay purposes.
  • Likewise, I tried to make the game too complicated (basically Iron and Blood), even though I am relatively inexperienced. Ironically, the Peshawar Lancers is probably the setting that was best suited to a 'classical' IOT with a very simple ruleset.
 
Camikaze is on board with the idea. It may be possible after all... :think:

As great as it would be to have our own mod down here, I think Mafia/NOTW has a much better argument for it than we do. They would benefit from having a local mod much, much, much more than we do, as having someone to perform menial moderation tasks (locking/opening/renaming threads) would really benefit their forum. Besides, I can't really think of many IOTers who haven't been banned over 1500 times. :p
 
I honestly wouldn't trust any of you to mod IOT.

I would certainly trust myself *eyetwitch* and Sone *fists clench around crowbar*
