I don't think I've ever had as much fun in an RP as I did with PvC, to this day. You're never as alive as when you've stupidly destroyed your government, economy and army with a single NS issue while your enemy is right on your doorstep.

That's what I want to bring to Wintreath.

I suggest we do it slightly differently this time, though. Instead of bringing in some of our favourite puppets, we all start from scratch with new puppets at the same time, and continue from there. Alliances would still be rad, though, so I would miss that aspect of PvC, since there wouldn't be much incentive to form alliances when you're trying to build your nation up from scratch and on an equal footing.

I also need to come up with a story to base this on.

Team Blue:
Neo Aesir (Aragonn)
Laurentus Setats (ek)

Team Red:
BSR
Crushita

Team Purple:
Everyone else(?)

I like the sound of this, but it needs some elaboration. How would this work?

Over in New Hyperion, we started (but never finished) a RP where we used our citizenship nations to battle it out with actual NS stats, and this resulted in some interesting scenarios as the unpredictability of NS meant we frequently had to think on our feet and adapt to quickly evolving situations. This led to alliances, betrayals and utter chaos, upon which we built a halfway decent tongue-in-cheek story about genetically engineered, weaponised super penguins, cheese cannons and so forth, with characters taking the events 100% seriously.

The other Hyperians are welcome to chime in here.

I'll just link to its OOC and IC threads.

Ugh, I had just made a new nation too... I suppose I can figure something out.

I actually never played PvC like you guys; during the entire time, I basically only answered issues for like a week, since my stats were already so below you guys'. I think starting from scratch would be interesting, and I wholeheartedly support this idea. Perhaps we should make a special puppet storage region for better organization of this RP?

So towards the end of the RP, as it was starting to die out, @Colberius X accidentally chose an option on Issue 221, which absolutely imploded all of his stats. He was already planning to write out some unrest in the government, and when he eventually posted it, it ended up being a four-post-long (because of word limit) coup. Unfortunately, the RP quickly died after that, with key RP'ers having slowly gone inactive.

It would be interesting to play without Laurentus States's insanely quickly rising stats.

I remember when I had my heart set on strengthening my economy, military and Scientific Advancement, I saw exponential growth in all sectors that none of you could ever dream to match. To this day, I think something incredibly dodgy was going on, but to my benefit.

With one issue, I remember gaining like a 35 increase in SA at one stage. Madness.

One word: Potatoe

Didn't you have some strategy in there? Like, didn't you temporarily restrict political freedoms as you worked up your stats?

I did, but Colby was doing the same thing, with limited success.

I did go from a having excellent political freedoms to being a hard-boiled dictatorship, though.

From personal experience, it's rather easy to bring up your economy in NS with libertarian/anarchist issue choices, but I'm fairly sure it doesn't work as well for other stats.

When do you plan on getting this RP started?

As soon as I've come up with a setting and story. Do we want something as silly as PvC again?

I'm also open to anymore comments like those you've already made about perhaps forming a region specifically for this RP.

Potatoe is not joke, is serious.
