The_Mather1 Posted June 17, 2011 Share Posted June 17, 2011 Yeah, but you can also research physics simulators and such, which in the real world would speed up research. Twitter: @TheMather1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Icuownage Posted June 17, 2011 Author Share Posted June 17, 2011 Like I also wrote, you can research something, but it may not actually help until you do something with the tech, with your example, you would need to build the simulator. It's a REALLY big shaft.I didn't catch fire, I used the can of hairspray as a flamethrower and pointed it at my arm.how are you going to ignore my posts when I'm offering to let you live as my vassal in two weeks time?

archimage_a Posted June 17, 2011 Share Posted June 17, 2011 *cough*[hide]Starting point:You can choose any 50 provinces to start with. (Great Britian has approximately 53 Provinces, included all of Ireland)Choosing provinces in Space cost double. Island chains are counted as single provinces.If you are unsure, ask. Cash:1 Cash per provinceCash can be invested in techs for half as many tech points. Techs:200 for level 1, 400 for level 2, 800 for level 3.0.5 in each, per province.You can invest tech points in the following 5 catagories: Warfare:Increases Army Skill by 0.5 per level.New unit type is released every 5 levels. Production:Increases cash per province by 0.1 per level.Increases tech output by 0.1 in all provinces, every 5 levels. Civil:Decreases the cost of projects by 1% per level.Adds 50 manpower to all provinces every 5 levels. Space:Increases Fleet Skill by 0.5 per level.New ship type is released every 5 levels. Weird:Allows you to invent a new tech every 5 levels.Gives 1 national idea per 10 levels. Manpower:500 per province Armies:1 Division of 1,000 costs 3,000 manpower and 50 cash.And has stats of 1 Attack, 1 Defence and 1 Logistics. Different unit types have different costs and stats. Regions:Regions provide a specific bonus and a specific penalty.[hide][/hide] If you control all the provinces in the region you can double the bonus, or remove the penalty.Black boarded province are not in a region.If a province has more than one colour border, choose whichever you wish. Regions are vaguely balanced, but some regions are simply better than others. Creating a new region can be done, but is a national idea(removing the idea destroys the region)You can choose the bonus, but not the penalty.A six sized dice will decide the degree of bonus/penalty. (Aka 6 is +3 Cash, -600 Manpower, while a 1 is +0.5 Cash, -100 Manpower) National Ideas:You start with 1.Nuclear Weapons, Mustard Gas Mines, Hydroponic Towers and Electric Cars. All of these require your people to actually believe in the idea or they will fail miserably.National ideas can also increase tech output by 0.3, Army/Fleet skill by 2, manpower by 150, colonisation chance by 25%, colonisation speed by 2 years and cash by 2.Switching projects either requires you to pay 10,000 cash OR 5 levels of research OR suffer 2 years inactivity. Projects:All provinces produce the same amount, plus their regional modifers.Projects allow you to increase the output of a province.For example:Mustard Gas Mines increase defencive strength by 50%.Hydroponic Towers increase your manpower by 100.Electric Cars increases cash output by 0.1 Projects get progressively more expensive over time.[/hide] http://www.uzzisoft..../archimage.jpegWell I knew you wouldn't agree.

Retech Posted June 17, 2011 Share Posted June 17, 2011 If we end up going with Archi's idea, then I have reserved the purple area of the map that I just colored in. Varies from 50-52 provinces, depending on the status of certain islands, so if it turns out to be 52, then scratch out the Taiwan area.

Retech Posted June 17, 2011 Share Posted June 17, 2011 Well if we are going with Icu's game idea, then I am South America, but if we are going to Archi's game idea, then I would play as Japan.

jasignhagj Posted June 17, 2011 Share Posted June 17, 2011 Tech, can we get a not jpegraped image? After the great civil war of 2030, Canada abandoned much of it's northern region, unable to afford to keep order over the land. When the permafrost melted in the late 50s, the region became a stronghold for all sorts of undesirables. Canada managed to build back a strong economy though, and peacefully annexed a sizable chunk of America after the 2061 collapse of the government. Despite it's powerful economy and hi-tech army, Canada still faces threats from the northern lawless lands an the rouge American nation-states to the south.

Icuownage Posted June 17, 2011 Author Share Posted June 17, 2011 In Archi's game, you create your own country, doesn't necessarily have to be a real world country It's a REALLY big shaft.I didn't catch fire, I used the can of hairspray as a flamethrower and pointed it at my arm.how are you going to ignore my posts when I'm offering to let you live as my vassal in two weeks time?

Retech Posted June 17, 2011 Share Posted June 17, 2011 I think archi's "game" is more of an extension of Icu's. Regardless, all the countries can't be the same size, because that would be pure nonsense. The country's area should be predefined before the game even starts. Yeah, Archi was just making a suggestion on how Icu should run it, based on Icu's outline. ------ Yeah Spork --- Rocco, they're not the same size. Some regions are bigger than others, so they look bigger. It's just in terms of base stats, they are equal, excluding regional changes. Master of your domain?

archimage_a Posted June 17, 2011 Share Posted June 17, 2011 And whatever happened to annex fests?

archimage_a Posted June 17, 2011 Share Posted June 17, 2011 *face palm*You need to save the undistorted version as a PNG.Saving the distorted version as a PNG does nothing.

Retech Posted June 17, 2011 Share Posted June 17, 2011 It's always been a fast grab sort of deal. As I recall, Mather grabbed Japan before I got back from school, and I was so pissed. :P I think imgur converts from PNG to JPG when they are doing their uploading, so I will try to figure out if there is another way.

Icuownage Posted June 17, 2011 Author Share Posted June 17, 2011 I think it would have been better if people PM'd me their selections. Cause it would possibly go to war.

Retech Posted June 17, 2011 Share Posted June 17, 2011 I was already gimped once before when we were doing fast grab.

Grim_ Posted June 18, 2011 Share Posted June 18, 2011 imgur is screwy in that it turns every image (at least I upload) into a .jpg file.
