Elfen High 2 (War OOC, Closed, Great rps are forged in fire)

[Agritum]

Something I've always found interesting about Victoria II is how, when you colonise Africa, those African provinces can very rapidly become 100% European.

Something happened to those natives.

Either that, or they actually assimilate (doubt it).

Though I once made a long game where I colonized Africa as the US, actually replying with the most humane (and inefficient) options in the special events regarding colonization.

Fast forward a few years later, and I get a touching event about the natives feeling loyal to the US and identifying more and more as Americans themselves.

Then, a few years later, they actually lose colony status and become a full-fledged state of the Union, along with a sweet pop-up which tells me that they'll have full voting rights and representation.

I actually broke down and cried after that.

Ah, yes. Super Norway. I remember it well, but I think I lost the IRC conversation about it.

It seems that some people around in the community still believe that Elfen High is strictly in the "Academy", as in, "everything happens in the school" setting.

I believe we should correct that misconception since, IMHO, it could be the main reason for the influx of RPs which actually take place ONLY in a school.

Link the map.

Myself, I lost the savegame, and I hate myself for that. I made the US and the rest of the world into a better place, without no cheats or anything.

Kickass. Never had it happen to me.

True.

East vs West has been cancelled.

Dammit.

I play with the PDM mod. Makes the game become beautiful.

This is what the US looked like in the end. I suggest you to zoom in so you can also see the various Caribbean and Pacific islands they own.

Dammit.

Knew it.

Shame. I really wanted to play as Israel or South Africa.

Link to this mod?

Mind, I don't own Victoria 2. I'm getting it some other time, when I finish with the games I'm already playing. Dragon Age and Borderlands 2 have been sitting on the back burner for a long while and I have to complete them soon.

Victoria 2 kicks ass. Best Paradox game, IMHO. It actually got me interested in economics.

I also suggest you to try this Code Geass submod for PDM, even if you don't actually know the series. It pretty much permits you to control an overpowered Absolute Monarchy in the continental US who's got access to unique bonuses and plenty of land to conquer.

What does Gabriel have against Inritus?

I recently read that FMA's politics subtext is a possible analogy to the US' actions in the Middle East.

Since you actually watched the show, Night, whaddaya think?

Oh, FMA.

All I remember is that one day they showed a map and I went "Drachma what the fuck."

Could also be Britain's considering the 'tech' level of the series. Or the USSR.

But yeah, having seen the original series and the movie, I saw that subtext too.

Too complex a show to pin to one conflict.

Amestris is Nazi Germany.

Fuck Morocco.

Nat? What have you done with Astro?

[Rupudska]

Fuck Morocco.

Nat? What have you done with Astro?

I believe he discovered the situation with Morocco and Western Sahara exists.

Nah. We just got him into EU4.

Any good Spanish players develops a loathing of Morocco.

Considering when that game starts, that makes perfect sense.

Indeed.

I'm personally working on my Muslim Russia game.
