New World (Map Game)

This game is indefinitely paused.

May be relaunched soon.


 * Welcome to the New World.

The year in Gregorian terms is unknown, but we know it as . Centuries — or even millenia, we're not quite sure — have passed since we lost contact with the Homeworld. We only know it for certain as the planet on which our species was born. We know we came from another planet. It has many names. Some call it Gaea. Others call it Terra or Zelmya, but most people know it as Earth.

According to the oldest records we could find, humans have been here for quite a while, but no one is certain how long exactly we have been around. Since the first colonies were settled thousands of years have undoubtedly gone by, so we can't exactly ask them about what our Homeworld was like. According to legend, it was a dark place, full of destruction, polution and wastelands.

In the years gone by since the first colonies were settled, expanded and then abandoned, our population now stands at over three billion, and we are spread out across the landmass of the planet. We've grown so apart in culture and politics that we have divided ourselves into what we call "states", "nations" or "countries." Maybe they called them the same thing back on the Homeworld — no one knows for sure.

Tensions have risen between the nations of the world. War looms over us. Militaries begin to mobilise. But no one wants to fight. No one wants our world to share the same fate as the one before. But all it takes is that one command to open fire...

Information

 * This map game begins in the year 990. It has been 990 years since the first nations began to form on this planet.
 * Average technological level has reached what is projected to be that of the 2020s AD, as humanity has undergone another dark age since its disconnection from Earth. Nuclear weapons are common to most nations Tier 2 and above (see military tiers for details).
 * The planet is known as Novasol III-B. It is a large moon orbiting a gas giant, the third planet in a system of five. The star is a Yellow Main-Sequence Star.

Rules

 * If you'd like to participate, simply put your name down as one of the nations!
 * Half a year passes every turn in the map game. In each turn your nation can improve three of five aspects of your nation — infrastructure, economy, military, industry or technology. If your empire has vassal states these vassals can have their stats improved independently, as they're technically separate sovereign states.
 * The war algorithm is the God of War. Unless discussion effectively disproves the algorithm, events will proceed as calculated.
 * Please do not engage in sockpuppetry (using more than one account). If you do, you will be banned from this map game.
 * Be as plausible as you can! If it's implausible, the mods will help correct you. It is a fictional world, so don't stress if the mods think what you want will not work.
 * If you are inactive for a lengthy period of time, your nation may be subject to disaster scenarios created by the moderators. The nation will eventually be removed from the game entirely.
 * A new turn will start each day at 2230 UTC (0630 AWST).
 * Games will be archived every ten turns (five years).
 * Please be courteous and polite to other users. Do not engage in shouting or use profane comments. This is known as a flame war. If a flame war occurs all participating parties will be removed from the game and their territories put under mod control until a replacement player signs up. Instead, engage in a polite debate, and ask for a mod to mediate the discussion.
