While that bit does genuinely turn me on, the rest seems a bit meh imho.

*brings out the mop*

I'd probably give it a go.

Richard?

I have something against people who join an RP half-way through and then annoy the fuck out of me with their bloody superior intellect and annoying attitude. ;_;

*Wave flag* Oh and I started reading da book :3

Why The West Rules?

anyway, the plan for the prehistory->future RP would basically be to allow everybody free rein, until they abuse it, at which point I bring out the scholarly debates and great works of literature. I think I've got good enough an understanding now to prevent non-realism quite effectively, as compared to back then.

Sounds good to me! When can we expect an OOC? I'd like to do something in sub-saharan Africa/the OTL Swahili Coast.

Why The West Rules for anyone interested. Good book, would recommend. Also very relevant to much of our AH, IMO; in fact, it contains a passage of AH and refers back to AH and related genres often. Basically a book explaining how and why we got from the ancient world to now the way we did in terms of power balance with plenty of useful numbers, reflections while not being dry. I really really ought to read Guns, Germs and Steel though.

Hah!

Same here. I've read 1491 (great book, especially helpful if you want to RP anything regarding Native Americans or the Americas), 1493 (also extremely helpful for the era between 1500 - 1750, regards the Columbian Exchange and its global effects), and Why the West Rules - For Now, and a bunch of books on national/regional histories, but I still haven't got around to reading Guns, Germs, and Steel.

*For Now

thank you~~~ ^w^

*For Now

cannot into long title
I always try and remember the subtitle ("and what it reveals about our future" or something) and fail miserably.

The HoX? Not too much, but for people to get a good idea, consider it a spiritual successor to the HoX series.
A few preliminary points:
The west will still dominate, because the geography helped it to do that, and no reason to make it more complicated than needed by shifting power balance between regions when we can totally redefine those regions
KILL ANALOGUE
Mostly a free-for-all with overarching design principles, as opposed to a more restricted, controlled approach
I won't be playing, neither will co-ops unless major inactivity

[Caltarania]

KILL ANALOGUE

but that's like my thing ;-;

[Alleniana]

The RP will be, in a way, sort of an exercise to see how hard we can kill cliches, wornout tropes and analogues dead. That is, without going overboard (ASB).

Expanding upon this though... Why the West Rules - For Now, is basically a longer version of Guns, Germs, and Steel... so I guess there's really not that much need to read it if we've already read WtWRFN :v

Hmm, that's interesting. I think GG&S is far more influential and famous, though.

[Negara-West Hesia]

I'd probably give it a go.

>not a cold war role-play

absolutely disgusting. >:u

[The Jonathanian States]

I believe if you see phrasing everywhere it might just be you.
In other topics, nice sig.
