Frontiers on the Horizon: Got a game plan?

Postby Galiantus III » Tue Mar 21, 2023 3:36 pm

Hello, NSGP!

Going by Sedge's recent posts it seems the era of frontiers is soon to be upon us. Before things roll out officially, I want to explore what plans people have leading up to and through the initial start of what could be a revolution in gameplay. And I suspect I am not the only one with such a curiosity. So I want to invite regions and anyone with plans they would like to share to do so here.

My intent is to get an idea what the lay of the land is and find a way to get involved with a group or region poised to make a splash the day frontiers drop. I'm sure there are a lot of people who have publicly stated their plans elsewhere, but such plans are not widely known among gameplay. It would be nice to get these more ambitious projects out in the open for everyone to be aware of and look forward to.

Obviously if you have plans you intend to keep OPSEC, this isn't the place. But I look forward to seeing how those play out when the time comes!

well i can tell you right now that i am planning something massive that will completely destroy all regional plans, cause falling outs and the rekindling of hostilities between regions and players, and cement myself as the most feared person in this game. i have hundreds of players on this website ready to begin the operation once i give the order. i have been planning the chaos for years and i have prepared for thousands of variables and contingencies. right now i will say immediately: within the first 48 hours, one major frontier will be annihilated, and it's exactly the one you are expecting

You seem to have trouble keeping nations existing. Perhaps try to focus on one thing at a time?

Once Concord becomes a frontier, and therefore recieves new nations, I can move forward with my goal of advancing Defender-Francoism with Imperialist characteristics.

An acceptable response, though I would naturally expect a bit more than grumbling.

Concord is a cool name for a frontier. And taking Francoism into frontiers is sure to be worth watching, regardless how it ends.

It’s going to be confusing when the Frontierists write a manifesto arguing the feederites are exploiting frontier-regions and committing entryism. :p

Purge everything or everyone till the problems go away? :unsure:
Edit: Though the serious plans...I've done a lot of preparation for frontiers on the security side. Final prep will happen over the next few weeks. A purge event/festival that I hope is fun and goes well.

I hope I don't have to lower the endo cap further once frontiers hits...my only qualm. Don't really like telling WA nations they have to have less endos for security reasons.
