Hmm, I just realized how much the financial trait blows the expansive trait out of the water

Expansive Trait now has cities costing 70 YC instead of it's previous 80 YC

Excellent

Nation Name: Sana'a
Nation Leader: Al-Abdul
Leader Traits:Expansive, Financial
And Anything Else You Want (History/Description/Economy, all that good RP stuff):
Sana'a is a trading nation built in Yemen.

copycat


and since I seem to be ignored ;p

Questions:

1) Why isn't there a cultural trait? Adje van den Berg deserves to be Cultural
2)

you may only expand to tiles that you ALREADY OWN before the turn had started

so.. how does that work?

THE NWACE IS REBORN! and with a better color!!!

​

CLAIMS-

Spoiler :

Capital marked with the vibrant green X as a tribute to the NWACE of years...well, years future .

A FEW DETAILS-
Nation Name: The NWACE(NorthWestern and Canadian Empire)

Nation Leader: Marcus Cornelius Gauditas (in the style of Roman naming)

Leader Traits: SCI, AGG

Government- Federalist Democracy in the American-style: Bi-Cameral Legislative Branch, with a House of Representatives that has the members based on the population of that province, and a Senate with 2 Senators from each province; Executive Branch, with President and VP and that stuff; and Judicial Branch with the Supreme Court heading it. However, every person's vote counts in the elections, and there is no Electoral College.

Economy-Trade between provinces is free of extra tax. However, citizens doing trade as the owners of companies must give a 5% portion of all gained money to government for trade involving gold, precious metals, & useful minerals like uranium and iron. Trade between nations is closely monitored, but the trade is unrestricted unless dealing with the aforementioned materials, which can only be done by the government, or with permission from the government.

Now time to write up some roleplaying.

Spoiler :

The city was in full swing now, at time-when-sun-is-at-top. Marcus Cornelius Gauditas smiled. the vision of the gods had finally come true. In a dream exactly one year ago, he had seen that the city was to be filled with shiny-high-buildings, black-rock-paths, and a parade of men with cloth-armor-of-steel on and holding fire-sticks. He knew his empire would rule the lands for ages.
The city was named Marcium.
And it was going to have a storied future.

I shall never answer your questions! Never! Muahahahahaha!

1: Well funny thing was that I did have a culture trait in planning. I just forgot to put it down

There is now a "Creative" leader trait

2: Well let's use one of the players as an example, say SamSniped as he's right next to this post. From the capital territory he chose, he can only expand to the 4 territories that are around him. See what I'm getting at here? Although he can begin expanding through sea tiles at Naval Tech 5...



Also going through a PM concerning lack of details in certain areas of the ruleset. Ruleset is still prone to minor changes before game begins.

ok, well tbh I like the Fin/Exp to much to change it

I get it and find it logical

How many more people are you looking to have join before starting? You've got 11 now...

Also, is there a limit to how many cities there can be per territory?

 

[SouthernKing]

Just so you know, Daksina is my country in TerraNES...but in a different part of India

 

[SamSniped]

Hey Yoshi, I was just wondering if there are going to be buildings and that stuff to be made. If so, maybe have the Granary take a bit off of growth cost, Barracks a bit off of army costs, Theatre increases the culture output, etc.

I don't have any plans to include buildings...for the moment

One city per territory. Since Each territory can represent a city if you choose to make one there, the population number is being put straight onto the territory

And I plan to start once all the minor kinks in the ruleset is worked out. Perhaps later today or tomorrow.

Thanks for the info. Looking forward to the start of this game!

Alright! After many back and forth PM's from a concerned reader, I have made the following amendments to the ruleset for the sake of balance:

Trait Changes:

• Expansive: 70 YC is needed to build a city (From expansive's previous 80 YC)
• Scientific: Cost for next era is reduced by 20% (From scientific's previous 50%)
• Financial: Economic Tech number is multiplied by 40 instead of 50 (From the previous 20 YC bonus)

Expansion Changes:

• To expand by sea (expanding to a tile adjacent to the ocean), Naval Tech 3 is required
• Considering the last point, the "Old World New World" concept is removed. Naval Tech 3 for any and all naval expansion.
• Naval Tech 3 is also needed for naval wars

Era Changes:

• Removed "Last Person to continue to next Era get's 10% penalty"
• Now, you gain a 1.1 YC bonus for going to era 1, a 1.2 bonus for era 2, 1.3 bonus for era 3, etc
• Those bonuses are permanent, with each cancelling each other out (I.E. if your in era 1 and move onto era 2, the 1.1 bonus is replaced with the 1.2 bonus)
• 10% bonus for moving onto next era first is still there, however, if multiple people move onto next era together, bonus will be 5%. 10% bonus only when your first and by yourself.

Not a change, but further explanation on certain points:

• Considering Era's, we all start on Era 0
• We all begin the game with 50 YC
• Era does not affect tech research in any way
• I will be keeping a city list (Buildings may potentially come in the middle of the game )

I'm now finalizing the map and putting in the AI's. I'll give you guys some time to sink into the changes or make changes of your own

Also, I will post the details about the AI's shortly.

With special thanks to the reader who pointed out these potentially bad balance flaws in this IOT

EDIT: AI's created, but I'm forced to post them tomorrow

but...but... I liked that 20 YC bonus.... in combination with the Exp it was so deliciously op


and in light of this I decided to give Adje what he deserves.. a.k.a. I changed my Financial trait to Cultural

 

[Verarde]

Argh, now I'm not sure whether to change my traits or not....
