PRE-DominatrNES II - Sign Ups

At first, i was considering creating a map with a large number of civilizations appearing at once that were chosen from a list, but i think now it would be better to do a true fresh start. It will be on the same map, but the player will be able to create their own original civilization instead of being restricted to a list of real civilizations.

I realized that players enjoy giving character to their own controlled empires and that really is diminished when choosing a from ones that already existed, so i've determined that a fresh start would make more sense.

OOC: All these tiered systems are almost exactly the same, with the odd twist of merchants being bottom every so often.

I swear, the next "fresh start" I'll have one where the slaves are on top of the food chain!

*Has idea*

Anyway, on-topic...

I don't really care either way. If this system helps you, do it. For most practical purposes, this will still function similarly to a fresh start.

Otherwise, I'm good with a change.
 
To be honest I was playing this kinda like a fresh start already with the Attican League.
 
It's officially a fresh start, tomorrow night i will create the thread for it, and you will make your own original civilization. I am going to sort of disregard the claims to different areas posed in this thread, however, you are welcome to claim the same location tomorrow.

Just say "i'm in" and claim a location, you can develop the submission after you've safely gotten a spot you like to avoid rushing/confusion. Thanks guys, glad i was able to make up my mind before actually starting it, can't wait to launch this fresh start!

yeah i was getting that idea, and i thought it would be best if i just abandoned the idea of having the lists and whatnot and making it officially a fresh start rather than being on the fence about it.

Still, we are already in place!
 
Hm. Yeah. Very true.

Given that, maybe you should just do that.

If so, you could either do the wave-based thing erez did (though there are problems with that), or let everyone go in at once.

EDIT: X-Post with above 2.
 
I hope you're quick on the draw Christos, because I will ninja greece from you.
 
Alright, I'm good for a fresh start. Will probably be claiming the same area, just to let the rest of you guys know. Or maybe I'll move over and populate Asia. We'll see.
 
Any. For example, it is "tradition" to consider Western Europe+mediterranean as a "cradle" simply because so many people want to join there.
 
I Shotty Cornwall (Exactly the same background and whatnot as in this thread, for the next thread.)
 
Nation’s name: Germany, Germany
Capital City: Berlin
Leader: Marz Aronokath
Place Names: Pick random german cities :)
Societal Structure: There are two classes. One class is the civilian class, and they don't stab things. The other military class stabs things.
Brief History: Berlin was created by the god of the earth, also the god that endorses battles and such. The Germans poured from the depths of the earth and have been stabbing ever since.

Of your going to do more than just claims starting area, at least give us a level of detail that doesn't make us think barbarians, why should I talk to them. Name of castes(you obviously miss named here. Caste is a better word), What sub classes in them exist, what to call your leader, something other than that ungodly history. Makes me think barbs, not a civilization on our level, and it means the actual summary of your history, not religious history. Do preists have more power than nobility, or is a plutocracy of merchants the powerbase. The military? All five equally? The people( note: not a viable option right now)? just germany is a bland name. Are you th kingdom? Empire? Something new? What you have put tells use you wish to join, and have little to no thought to detail so far.

England!

Nation’s Name: The Britannian Republic/ Brittannian

Capital City: Londonium....located where you think it is.

Leader: Imperator Caligula.

Place Names:
Eboracum: Latin for York...
Societal Structure:

Consul/Imperator/First Citizen:The Military Autocrat leader of the Empire( I am aware that the nation is called a republic, but I'm basically romanized england). Just like RL roman emperors, this IS NOT passed done from father to son, but to who ever the Imperator or the senate (if their is no incumbent Imperator at the time) wants. granted...the Praetorian Gaurds have to approve of the Imperator first...else he will find a not so nice feeling dagger in his back.
Senator: A legislator....not powerful at all, at least from the stand point of being a senator...HOWEVER, they tend to be RICH. And money = easier time funding legions = military power...and the republic is a military autocracy.
Praticians : The upper class. Rich. Affluent. Allowed to be a senator.money is consider a powerful thing to have, despite the military being a somewhat quick way up. Course, those riches can be used to obtain military power...a civil war would defenitely be a bit of a issue here. NOTE: there are several high up positions a Pratician IS FORBIDDEN to take in the bureaucracy. Getting here simply requires having a lot of money. The classes are monetary-based
Equites: the middle class. Not dirt poor, but not super rich. Some of the prarician forbidden positions are these guys ONLY. The republic would break without these guys.
Proles: dirt poor to just below just well enough off. The remember of the Pratician forbidden positions go to these guys. Let's face it, there are thing the Proles know better then the upper class. So let the guys who know how do it.
The Bureaucracy: A good way to gain power. This is why no nobility system exists here.(yes, those upper class people are not nobles.) without these guys...their would be no republic.
The Military: another way to power. The sword and shield of the republic...trains night and day.
Praetorian Guard: special mention here. These guys are the Gaurds of the Imperator. These guys are our version of the kingmaker...as these are the guys who make sure no one assassinates you...unles you don't keep them happy...in which case, THEY WILL assassinate YOU! Therefor, being the commander of this is one of the highest honors. And makes you nearly as powerful as thy Imperator. If not more. Therefor, if you coup the Imperator and keep command of the Gaurd...you would have the loyality of your gaurd being their commander, AND the empire as your plaything...

History: A long, long, long, long, long, long, long time ago on river bank not so far away, if your a Londoner...though for this poster a 9 hour flight away, Their was a cruel king and Queen...well, the king was powerless in the face of the Queen. She had....wait wrong story....no never mind right story...a unsateable greed, and taxed the people endlessly...the people rebelled. it was REVOLUTION. And so, the people declared a republic when they won. For some time it stood, but the gap between the wealthy and poor widdened, as we expanded...eventually the Impetator Gauis took power in a bloody civil war.
Game Start

OOC: damn you vocaliod...you had me starting going off with servent of evil's plot there. Just some changes.
