Hmm, if this ends in a draw, what will we do?

RNG?

3 for 1700s-1800s, 2 for WWI, 2 for WWII.

3 for 1700s-1800s, 2 for WWI, 2 for WWII.

Wait WWI and II are separate!? I change my vote to WWI...

that would make it: 2 for 1700s-1800s, 3 for WWI, 2 for WWII.

I was going with that tiered idea of Aragonn's. If you're voting for WWI/II, or 18/19th century, then you're voting for the pair.

But it might be dodgy to do it this way, since if people really have their hearts set on WWII or 19th century, they'd have to get their Scientific Advancement score high enough before they can use it.

Hmm, the more I think about this approach, the more it seems desperate to please everyone, and in the process please no one.

EDIT: In conclusion, perhaps it would be best to just decide on one tech level and explore it to the max. This means my preferred tech level might not get chosen, but c'est la vie.

My heart is set on WWII, but I came up with this idea as a compromise, something which can be described as an agreement which pleases nobody.

Interwar anybody?

Interwar anybody?

An interesting idea...

Interwar anybody?

Interwar would be interesting.

What are we going with?

Well, interwar would be included with the WWI-WWII idea, allowing the WWI people their technology off the bat, giving us the ability to explore the interwar technology once we advance beyond WWI, and finally into WWII for those of us who really want to go that far.

Interwar would be a standard baseline, and the good thing is that at that point all infantry is the same from that point on so.... only real advancements are GIANT advances in aircraft, armour and other technologies.  Basic infantry gear was essentially the same before and after WWII, so that'd be a good equaliser I suppose.

Though I really think it would be epic to have giant 1st-rates going at each other on the open sea to spread the Great Spud's word to the heathens...

Yeah, what the hell is wrong with you people? It's like you don't like massive pirate battles!

Long story short, we never get to see Pirates in NationStates RPs.... just space people and modern dudes!!

A vote for 17th-18th centuries is a vote for Pirates
