Wow, I thought the game was dead. Also, sorry for not replying for all of this long, but after a couple of days with no response I thought you abandoned the game.
Anyways, I think I haven't made myself clear, I'm asking if the game is for the PC. You know download and play, or do we need someone else to make the orders, produce the factories (Or anything else that can be built)? The game looks really good, a software of it would be nice. (If there isn't one already)
EDIT: Do you guys intend on selling this game?
No, never abandoned it. With the lack of interest I just kept the work on my own website. No need to spread around what is not wanted.
Right now it is planned to be a Play-By-Mail game. But there may be a full program done up for it.
The player will create his own orders and send them to the GM, where he will process those said orders and return the results to the Player.
Each Player will have his own mini-fora for his power, as long as he is active. This is where he can interact with the other Players and GM.
The Gm will also do up a newletter for the players for any significant events that have happened in the turn.
And as of now, no, the game will be free to play. This is the type of game I have always wanted to play, but no game made yet has come close. So I am making this game for me, and anybody else who wants to have a detailed game they can care about.
I tell my testers that this game is for players who love detail, and and wish to take the time to plan the growth of their power.
Last, but certainly not least, I believe that Haegan and I have come up with a workable economic model for a free market system. So if a player wishes to play a Republican or Democratic form of govt, they will have a free market system for economics to begin with. But with Governmental policies he can evolve whatever form of economy he begins with into another form. The model can simulate State Capitalistic and Command Economies too. In fact, the upcoming playtest is to see how it works and to tweak what needs tweaking.
