Risk-Style Nation Conquering

[Andy Samberg]

So basically, who wants to join an RP where you control a given country and launch attacks on other countries to eventually rule the world?

 

[Spacekitty]

Will it be detailed and character driven?

 

[Andy Samberg]

It will be detailed but not character driven. You have a given number of troopers, missiles, planes, etc. You will be playing the 'Leader' of that country. Ever country has a 'Leader' no matter what their government is and they say where they want to attack, with how many things, etc.

 

[Spacekitty]

Maybe imterested

@Christian Nether I may be interested as well since it kinda sounds like what happens when playing civilization with a bunch of people. Its hard to tell though, do you mind saying a bit more about how the roleplay will work and so on? I figure it's not going to be as simple as rolling the dice like with risk. There are many questions, such as what determines the number of military each country gets, how victories and battles will be determined, and so on.

 

[Andy Samberg]

So basically, it IS like playing civilization, and I will be a GM so to speak. Your people will need food obviously, and pros and cons are going to be put up for every country. (The US is excluded for many reasons) and you will need to tend to the needs of your people, military and conquer the world basically. It isn't going to be a small three turn game, as there is many variables for attacking, such as economic issues, troop training and deploying. Other variables, such as the amount of distance you are taking to mobilize and troop costs (maintaining health and such) can bring you down. You WILL have missiles, but keep in mind that there is also missile defenses and your people probably won't like you being a bully to another country w/ missiles, so they are really a last resort. More will be explained if it is ever a thread on Nation Building, but that is if I can get enough people.

@Christian Nether alright, count me in then, I would check it out, certainly if its like civ. As long as I get to nuke people I'm happy. (> )

 

[Andy Samberg]

K I'm waiting for at least another person, as I will not be playing so the thread will be made eventually.

 

[Azuria]

[Nyq]

[Andy Samberg]

[Spacekitty]

@Bobisdead123[/URL] are you interested? The thread will be made if you are.

seems a bit complicated for me sorry

 

[Andy Samberg]

Alright @Bobisdead123

 

[Lord Bradorian]

I'm up for it.

 

[Andy Samberg]

K. I'll begin working on the thread. I will notify you when it is completed.

 

[AdmiralKerkov]

Interested.

Eh. I'm fairly interested. Count me in. May I suggest, however, scrapping modern countries that currently exist and have every player start out with roughly the same tactical abilities, although they could pick specific perks like Navy, Air Force, Mass Infantry, Fanaticism, etc. So for instance, I could be the President of Western Europe with a standing army of 40,000 and a Fanatic society so my troops have more morale. I would also suggest using the classic Risk map as it is well-balanced and provides a smaller number of countries than the modern world map. <p><a href="<fileStore.core_Attachment>/monthly_2015_11/Risk.png.8d67eed615e5b1e07dd0662cefb3e978.png" class="ipsAttachLink ipsAttachLink_image"><img data-fileid="86832" src="<fileStore.core_Attachment>/monthly_2015_11/Risk.png.8d67eed615e5b1e07dd0662cefb3e978.png" class="ipsImage ipsImage_thumbnailed" alt=""></a></p>
