Calradia BoP?
Go play Native
As of now Otto and I are doing the framework of the new fantasy BoP: Iropia game. You know, the one where players create their own nations, culture, history and relations and whatnot, we plug it into the custom map and play from, say for example, the age of sail to the cold war.
As of now it is still in developmental stage, we have yet to fully come up with what we are going to do or if we are even going to attempt this project altogether.
However, if we are going to go forward with this, here is what we are currently doing:
-Map. Otto and I created an EXTREMELY rough draft of the map the game might be on. It is nothing but lines on white background with some minor details right now, however we plan on finalizing the map and then sending it either to some people I know who make good maps or going on a map-making forum and hiring a few of them to professionally make our map.
-Setting. We still don't really know what the setting would be. IE Medieval to "Napoleonic", Age of Sail to WW1, something to something, etc etc. You get the idea. Once we decide what technological time period the game will parallel at the start we'll start building the entire game around that and the future.
-Universe. There will be some backstory, hopefully. Not much, just enough to give the player created nations something to start with. A popular idea Otto and I were thinking was "Previously all-encompassing empire (Totally-Not-Romans.exe) has fallen. Few generations later this is the mess that is left. Create your nations, histories, cultures and whatnot". However we might change or edit depending on what we decide upon.
We're already in the process of making finalizing the rough draft of the map as well as finally agreeing upon what actually the game will be. Input is always welcome. This will take a long time
obviously so
Stark, McLovin, and Dazzer, please don't bug us to "finefinefine just start already!".
Other than that nothing to report. We won't be using a "Totally-Not-Eurasia" map, that's just too lazy. As of now to be honest the world looks like a potato.
Remember, input is appreciated, but don't adamantly demand a feature be in place with no explanation then rage because we ignored you.
As of now I guess I am leading this project, although I really hope Otto can pick up more of the project so I'm not burdened running 4 different BoPs.
I hope I won't have to GM but... I mean if nobody else wants to when it is time to start I guess I'll GM...
