1895

[TristanLuigi]

1895

maxwell is not incorrect
i chose that date because it's close to WWI but far enough to allow some deviation and it's the beginning of the cuban revolution, which leads to the spanish-american war

Also, I'm considering something new for technology: rather than a tree or linear system, I think I want to try using a "pool" of technologies that cost (for most techs) 100 research points and have a certain date on them - researching before that gives a 20% penalty per year, and techs cannot be researched more than 5 years in advance. Being the first nation in the world to research a tech will cost 25% extra, while having an ally with a technology gives a 25% discount. Some of them will also have previous requirements.

If anyone is interested, I am creating the Tributary map live.  I will be keeping it open for a while for suggestions.  Using Steam for communicating is faster than using Twitch's chat, since I can put the window off to the side.

Game officially open!

A quick design, I still don't have all the techs planned though. Green techs are for the army, blue for the navy, azure for the air force, and red for civilian technology (political, administrative, economic, et cetera). I don't have the filter right now (it's on another computer) but I'm also going to add a brushed steel effect to most graphics for the RP. The top right is the amount of research points required, and the bottom right is the date where ahead-of-time penalty ends. Under the name is the previous tech, which is required only if you are the first in your alliance to research the tech. I haven't decided exactly on the research points per season for great powers and regular nations yet.

Just wanted to post here to say that nation forge progress is still underway, I don't have any pretty pictures though :P.

Socializmus will exist at some point

[TristanLuigi]

soon

yes, the only thing I have left to do is tech, and I have a friend that's super into world war military technology that I'm going to consult
i decided against an ideology tree but nations will still pick between the 3 ideologies

[TristanLuigi]

Update on tech: it's coming along, trust me. I'm into the internet interbellum now, it takes a bit longer than I expected so help would be appreciated. Otherwise, I'm shooting for having it done by Sunday.

[Juncoph]
