Because nobody ever listens anyways and we end up with an over-complex amount of garbage that the people that do follow it end up spending more time keeping track of than actually playing? Honestly. I didn't play Hegemony to touch up on my Microsoft Excel skills, or my theoretical physics knowledge. I'm playing to do what I want, and so when someone says 'no you can't do that because you need x before you can make y, but you need 18 of z, and need to have researched a through to m and bought tech from player t, I just say [bleep] that and do what I want. Infinitely more enjoyable for me. And what bonehead decided to make members names show up as yellow? What an eyesore.

My thoughts exactly. If this game does spring up, I'll just ignore all the build points and tech research costs and resource numbers and do whatever I think is reasonable.

I hope you realize you were the worst offender in that one as well...

And no 'your real-life physics knowledge determines what technology your country can have' garbage.

It's dead because Retech decided to anthrax bomb the world, and Arch for some bizarre reason allowed it.

I give everyone 4 months of training. *Waits till a war starts* I convert all my trained people to soliders and invade with 90 million troops, and there is nothing you can do about it. I scorch the land, retreat my troops, and then use my air force and navy to disrupt/destroy your supply lines. 85 million soldiers starve to death/are forced to throw rocks. A hegemony in the Napoleonic era would be pretty fun. Dibs on Prussia!

With group moderation...

Bah! I retreat back to my kingdom to raise a new army. Next time we will advance with rock-resistant helmets on.

My army appears wherever the most people are and mobs them all to death...200,000 vs 4 weeeee!

Not all of them. ;) Anyway, that gives a good idea for describing social life in the Texan Republic: Rampant corrupt corporatism and over-consumption. Add this, along with constant anti-Communist propaganda, race laws, and prison brutality, and you have the components for a good story. So it's essentially just a story about Texas in the 60s?

So this thread is just 'Post stuff you thought was weird from 4chan'?

Yeah but Texans are fat.

...no. First Hegemony was way more interesting. The classic struggle of Good vs Evil, gogogo! Meh. Hegemony was the only game I enjoyed playing. Vetoed. Um. The games dead so your veto is meaningless. I vote yes for the inevitable 3rd incarnation of the Hegemony. Logic takes a backseat to not destroying the game because you got annoyed.

So...basically, instead of getting people mildly annoyed with you for telling Retech no, you decided to blow everything up so that you wouldn't have to deal with moderating? That's what it sounds like to me.

Because it's not like the game would have died eventually anyways. Because nobody would ever have done anything like what happened. I believe that was why there was a moderator, in order for them to say 'No, you can't do that, as it'll break the game'. Instead, Arch just decided that since he didn't like Retech he'd let Retech virus bomb the planet and get everyone mad at him. Zz

Anyways ty for killing the game Arch =D>

Don't have the time :thumbdown:

Good book.

I have zero interest in space with this game. We did that last game enough.

Protip: When offering someone a business deal, don't try to sell your product as a 'whatever-it's-called'. I have no idea what you're talking about anyways, since I just ignored you and Arch's 3-page long physics debate about Heisenberg's Uncertainty Principle.

*sigh* This is what happens when I'm not the evil arch enemy of everyone in the thread. You guys picked Japan to be yours then Retech flipped out and virus-bombed the planet. Idk why I bothered to play (relatively) peacefully. -.-

Hi. Yes. I still have around 30 pages to read through, but I should probably mention that if Japan had 'anthrax bombed' Turkey, I would've DOW'd Japan, as the SR and Turkey share a border and so there would've been a lot of spillover. Also: Never ever attack without a casus belli, unless you're some tiny tiny little country that can gain stability back within months. -- Weapon lineup completed.

Hm.
