Description

We are looking for new players and lurkers for the new game Napoleonic Blood.

Following up the game Royal Blood, Napleonic Blood is an ahistorical game of city states in a fantasy setting. Whislt it is not based in our world, there are no fantasy races or powers or magic. The game has a vaguely "steampunk" feel but will basically be a Napoleonic setting sans the history lessons

Basically each player can, at this early stage, design and take control of a city state and then attempt to raise yourself up by trading, diplomacy, politics and even warfare Features of city State design: * Pick your government type. Three levels of monarchy, republican, theocracy or even a police state! * Pick your religion! Religion is more of backgroud factor but its easier to form ties with those of the same religion and make wars on those without * Fine tune your starting lands and cities. Weigh up all your picks or just go with the default * Rename your lands, cities and even individual divisions or pass it on to the Moderator

Features of the Game Itself * At present we're looking at 3-week turnaround for turns * Millitary units at a divisional scale. Design your own uniforms using a simple template if you want! Each division is rated for its expierence and the quality of its commanding officer! * Chart the rise and fall of monarchistic dynasties. Simmilar to the "Births, deaths and marriages" system within Royal Blood * Simple but intuitive economic system. Trade resources to form sets * Friendly group and hand moderated. The rulebook is a thin one because I like to keep things flexible.

So come and join the group. The game is still setting up and there is room at the table for plenty more!
