How is 'Geopolitical RP' (The name is sure original)?

It looks like they have a lot of features we have here, hmm...... Do we have a defector? :ph43r:

lol. It's pretty good. The military budgeting system and demand for events instead of RP seems a little arcane. It's not inspirational enough for walls-of-text like 21C. Most IC posts don't break a paragraph. I'm Singapore, now on that game.

Geopolitical Role Play used to be Alternate History RP when I used to run it. I dont run it anymore but I can assure you there similar but there are quite a few differences. We focus quite alot on Internal Affairs and R & D.

And I agree the Military Budget are very arcane. Ive been trying to fight for the old simpler one but damn Admins! :D Its also alot more realistic (No offence meant) than 21C when it comes to foreign affairs.

That topic is what you're asking about, I think.

Hm yea I think.
Looking at it, that's not really what I had in mind. It's based on the real world, whereas what I had in mind and I think others too, was a complete made up world.

A completely fantasy world would be hard to do in the modern age, as everything is inter-connected. You'd have to do a sort of medieval world or Age of Revolutions world.

'course, if there was interest in a Song of Ice and Fire-esque world, I'd definitely be up for it.

lol. Was that before or after the war in South America? The admins play too big a role in that game, I think. That and everybody buys carriers and stuff. And tries to resurrect military projects not around for 30 years.

I've always thought 21C was by far the more realistic game. That's why I play Geopolitical RP lol. Even if it does seem arcane lol.

A war in South America between Ecuador and Colombia who hate each other hence the Andean Crisis. That was just a repeat of that but went a step further. Compared to a China - Russia War? :P

Actually i decided that it would be not worth the effort for you to do a thing like this anyway.

A wall of Text will be just fine. Thanks though!

You can turn all that stuff off, if you use GoogleEarth.
I'm guessing you mean names/labels/roads/etc?

Alexi, coincidently that trio of islands was meant to be a single plot. :P
But nah not sure if I'll use that map. We still need to find at least a dozen people to start off. :unsure:

If you guys are interested in a modern-tech alt-universe RP, I know of a fairly well established forum that specializes in that kind of thing. Only problem is that they're pretty far along into their RP and are more worldbuilders than RPers. On the other hand, I know that some old buddies of mine are trying to pull one of these RPs together right now and are in fact using one of my old maps. Never mind.

I would be interested in helping put one together though.

Anyhoo, here's a map I've made for a past RP:

Nice maps.

Perhaps we can link up with those friends of yours and do one? The more the merrier..

I was one of those friends trying to make that. I can get the guy who helped set up the economic system and everything to probably come along for the ride. The only problem with the economic system is that it relies too heavily on a one size fits all attitude for budgeting and uses NSEconomy for some of the trade deficit stats. Maybe me and him can work on it and see if we can totally take NS out of the economics. Population is determined by the plot size, climate and resources so no need for NS there. I'll see what kind of partnership I can work up.
