I tried to balance power and manpower, etc out evenly with some cons, drawbacks, etc. But a system for the noobs? Sure...... |

If we put a system in place, it will be for everyone. |

I agree that a system is necessary. Ideally, it should factor in economy and other federal spending as well. |

But how would we determine those determining fiscal factors that would determine a military, and the related? We'd need a system for this system, and so on. No matter what, I think players are gonna RP this as they please mostly, or at least try to, as that is more fun....... |

It is more fun to play without the framework and that's what we'd like to keep, but it's become obvious that we will need to adopt a system, at least if we ever get past the strutting stage and into actual war RP. As for the economy, yes, I agree it would be nice, but it's far too complicated. Economists now truly don't understand an economy and most artificial systems I've seen (mostly console RPGs) completely blow the economy factor. I'm trying to hammer out a simple system, but it'll be a while before you see it. We're going to discuss it privately first and establish a draft. BTW, it'd be a point-buy system. At least that's my idea right now. I personally hate them (from D&D), but it's the first I came up with. Edited by Demoness, Mar 11 2011, 11:32 PM.

Point buy system for economies??? Can we as members suggest cuts we're willing to make to avoid having to undergo a total revamp of our militaries? Like I said, I think mine's reasonable enough as is, but if a mod says otherwise, I'd rather suggest some cuts myself, than have to take an ax to the military I spent alotta time, detail, and articulation on.... |

Honor system is best for this.. enonomonies are complexious. Also I declare Zeeland to be the mightiest military force in all of tribal oceana! Protecting the world from dangerous grass hut dwellers and sharpened fruit bearing native hordes. |

Point buy for military; I'm leaving economy alone. Mael- That's how we were doing it until everyone started showing up posting they have the best military in the world. It's a little...difficult to accept that. We decided early on we'd only moderate when it became necessary because this is cooperative storytelling. |
