I choose the dark-side of the Moon.
I have a feeling this might pathetically fail. But hey it's a cool looking thread anyway.
I'll take the United States. :patriot:
[QUOTE=Sector 7;28703233]forum games like this never do very well unless they're [i]extremely[/i] simple.[/QUOTE] [QUOTE=Feuvert;28703306]Or they offer 15 dollars as a prize?[/QUOTE] I was hoping a prize would help bring forth some serious(ish) people who want to compete, besides it's due time the trend changes anyways.

[media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NcghLSIpZlM[/media] Anyways, I'm intrested in Middle East. Gotta read them rules one more time tough.[/QUOTE] Awesome, just someone to take the role as [sp]someone as crazy as Idi Amin/Mugabe/Gaddafi[/sp] the finest general african can muster. [QUOTE=killover;28704594]I want Europe, I have no idea how to play, needs a td;dr but I'll just go for it and see what happens. :downs::words:[/QUOTE] I'm just going to ignore this. [QUOTE=Flarey;28705979]Ill choose China :3[/QUOTE] China is part of the South Asian/Australian faction, you could ask SNNS-Sean if he wants to share control though. [QUOTE=LordLoss;28705549]So basically DEFCON, the Introversion game. Almost exactly.[/QUOTE] [QUOTE=VistaPOWA;28705959]Why don't you just buy DEFCON and make a server, it's a great game and it'll simplify things.[/QUOTE] Pretty much yes, as stated earlier this is a conversation of that game but as a tabletop type of game. :) I could do that, but I want to make it more fun for the whole community which is the reason why I made a conversation of the game so that people can follow it in 'realtime' in general discussion instead of watching some playthrough in the games section. [QUOTE=Croix;28706047]I have a feeling this might pathetically fail. But hey it's a cool looking thread anyway.[/QUOTE] I'm hoping to steer it away from pathetically failing by adding a prize so that people will at least try to win, I fear the last try of mine failed because of too complicated rules with economy etc. This time you'll only have to worry about it in the beginning and the rest of the time is spent on "defending" your faction. [QUOTE=Apache249;28706107]I'll take the United States. :patriot:[/QUOTE] Already taken, you could ask Vollybomb if he wants to cooperate though. :siren: I did a minor fix to the rules regarding tactical bombers (rightfully called strategic bombers), they can no longer carry ICBMs.
I wander into the wasteland alone with nothing but my cartons of cigarettes and 9mm pistol... call me Riker :riker: [editline]20th March 2011[/editline] I take up a small village in the middle of Africa and call it Libya.
Please never lay a square grid on a Mercator projection again
[QUOTE=ThePuska;28706627]Please never lay a square grid on a Mercator projection again[/QUOTE] Yeah it messes up with how large everything should be, it's purely out of simplicity and game balance issues I do it.
Rebels in Libya rise up against Riker and cause a mass civil war :riker:
Ill take Africa, Only the south of it but. M11 to P11 length M14 to P14 Width
-snip- late again
[QUOTE=Best4bond;28706747]Ill take Africa, Only the south of it but.[/QUOTE] Well you're going to control all of africa, but you can obviously just place everything you have in the southern sector of africa. :) OK so now I'm going to need orders from PivotDJ (Russia) SNNS-SEAN (Asia/Australia) VollyBomb (USA) Oicani Gonzales (South America) PILLS HERE! (Europe) Best4bond / ZeroMinus (Africa) Remember that you only have a set amount to spend on all units, and you can only have a maximum of FIVE(5) buildings in one tile that you control. Buildings are population centers and radar/anti-missile/silo.
Libya is just maxin' relaxin' what we gonna do.

If "I'm Riker and I have a gun and cigarettes and I live in Lybia" is your way of saying "I take control of africa" then you really need to be clearer.
Well he can have North of Africa maybe and ill get south and halve the points and city allowances?... I was thinking that he was more suggesting that, So that why i said South.
That works for me, discuss how you want to share it either here or in private.
[QUOTE=Gregah;28706831]If "I'm Riker and I have a gun and cigarettes and I live in Lybia" is your way of saying "I take control of africa" then you really need to be clearer.[/QUOTE] Sorry I was really trying to be Gaddafi impersonator, yeah I will take the North of Africa and we can half the allowances.
Alright, great :) Ok you guys both have the following : 45 credits 4 low-density 2 medium-density you need to decide which one takes control of the high-density.
Well... He could take the High Density.
One of you will have to take the high-density.
He can have the high-density but we maintain and alliance?
Yes, you both share the score. This means if you guys win you'll both get $7.50. You can't attack obviously.
Ok, Ill be happy with a alliance.
Sounds good [editline]20th March 2011[/editline] So whats happening now?
[QUOTE=ZeroMinus;28706968]Sounds good [editline]20th March 2011[/editline] So whats happening now?[/QUOTE] The creator needs to post a example.
I need everyone involved to send me orders on where they place population centers, what buildings/units you buy and where you place them etc.
Does somebody want to assist me with the Middle East?
I sent you a PM Best4bond.

Can you make a shortened version of the op? My attention span isn't with me on this one
[QUOTE=Slawter;28707476]Can you make a shortened version of the op? My attention span isn't with me on this one[/QUOTE] No. The rules are less than half of the OP, it just looks like a lot of text because unit description and the factions take up a lot of space. :)
