I want to try a NRP. (Do you want to run it?)

[Joegreenbeen]

(Still Looking)

Hello, everyone. I want to try to do a sandbox NRP in a fantasy setting. I want it to be average as possible. Oh, I also want some one to GM. I have never done an NRP before and I like the sound of an rp where you have to raise a little village to a great empire. I know that Gming is a big task, so thanks in advance! (If you want to participate not as a GM, post here too.)

I've always wanted to nation RP too, but I've always been intimidated by the massive amounts of lore and history, and the advanced posting standards that are in every single nation RP I've ever tried to join.

I have GMing experience, though.

Wait, so do you want join or run it? (Sorry to be blunt, I am just confused.)

I have experience running NRPs, and if massive amounts of lore and history is a issue I can always make it a bit more casual for you guys.

Here is a map.

Sounds good.

Anyways I would like to pose a few questions.

1.Is this going to be a more stat-based NRP?
2.I'm assuming every bit of history and lore is player created
3.With Fantasy do you want magic in it?

I don't think it will be stat based, but you'd probably want to have a system monitoring resources. (Food, Money, exports, ect.) Then I will say yes to the first, and let you deicide the latter.

No idea yet. I was offering if nobody else was, but it looks like someone can now.

It actually probably be preferable to have some sorta of stat system since you seem new to NRPs, it helps cause less arguments anyways since this won't be a advanced one where there is no stat system but people can still keep track of things.

And I will probably throw in magic, the thing is trying to find out how to balance it though.

PoW is fantasy in the fact that we've had a post where Spanish Special Forces flew a helicopter to Canada and stole a moving train off the tracks containing some important person (think that scene in Batman with the planes.)

Okay, do you think you can get something figured out? I could try if you want.

[Joegreenbeen]

Do you guys think one of us should make another interest check, or OOC, so we can attract more people?

And heavy metal.

Within the engine there was a portal to our dimension which Dio sang through.

Interested; I used to play NGs, but on a different format than what is currently used in this site. Actually, I want to know, how are Nation Games done on this site?

Everybody does it differently but there are two main ways: stat based and free-form. Stat based is heavily reliant on stats and figures for role play e.g only 4,000 workers can be fed with 3,000 bushels of corn. Free-form is less reliant on facts and figures, with loose guidelines on how to behave IC and not be OP. Both of them usually feature combat outcomes being decided by players, with GM intervention if the players cannot reach a conclusion. Hope that helps answer your question. Also sorry for derailing this thread a bit, I'll leave now!

[Letter Bee]

Ah, okay. Well, my schedule just filled up, so I don't think that I can play this one, sorry!
