idk maybe we could do something medieval-related to celebrate EW7 when it releases later this year
Also I have a few recommendations for future RP's:
- The 1942 RP really stalled once fortifications were built everywhere, and they were built unrealistically fast. So I think we should add a hard cap for the amount of forts you can build per page, depending on the era (so like 10km for WWII, but maybe less than 500m for 19th century warfare)
- Urban warfare is really different from large-scale warfare, but in the last RP it was really just a scaled-down version of usual battles, so I think we can do something about that
- Also taking/losing land was really arbitrary. I think there should be guidelines for that
- Casualties are also really arbitrary. Since there was a dice system before but it was too complicated, I think we could do something that's similar to Risk (so basically just win=kill, draw=no kill), but instead of risking all your troops with one die we could set one die for each soldier and the players could roll as many times as they want (eg. if you have 1500 soldiers in a region you could just roll 250 times or something), and that would give players a lot more control over the RNG
-Of course, if there's flanking, defense systems, or air superiority involved we could adjust for that by just removing the 6 on a d6 for example, so like if someone was flanked their die would only roll 1-5 while the enemy could roll like a normal die
- Also also, I think before anyone gets attacked we should give them the chance to distribute their troops along their front and prepare defenses for a few pages, so that way everyone can know where their troops are and that doesn't cause any consistency issues. And this should be told to the RP leader. Of course, the enemy shouldn't know all your troop positions so maybe you only have to reveal where half your troops are or something

I have 2 recommendations (and 2 maps) Medieval RP: Map based in the first 25 years of 1200 (annex small kingdoms (and some not very small) to other kingdoms to reduce the number of nations (Ex: Kingdom of zeta annexed to Contantinople, Rum annexed to Caliphate of Baghad, Ireland unified, among others)   and Seven Years War: |

Since Darth Nihilus stated his idea before I also like to set one- The RP incharge must declare that no player can't surrender himself to the enemies, he or she must have to ask before to his allies (in case of United divisions of a country) |

Diplomacy is completely a player's business, not of state RP executive. Although I don't really like betrayal (atleast in certain types of RPs where the numbers are fixed and betrayal will dramatically shake the balance), I agree that everyone can become neutral every time they want. |

3 people agree on Seven Years War, I'd agree too.
Any more suggestions?

Diplomacy is completely a player's business, not of state RP executive. I am trying to saying, if a player who is playing as group A of a country and the country has 3 such groups, so if that player wants to surrender his Group A army then he must ask/inform to the Group B and C about that Please understand it's necessary to keep such games interesting for your mates also What you did before i.e. by surrendering your Atlantic Wall and decleration of neutral by Finland( Port) to the allies, You really broke our hearts cause the allied powers (especially Darth Nihilus & Eugene V. Debs)became more furious to destroy us(axis) Please understand cooperation is very useful between the mates of same group I just want to mention you and tagged members about the truth, also I am sorry if such words hurts you |

I will choose the Seven Years' War, I think it would be fun to take a break from the twentieth century.

Darth NihilusI actually disagree on the fixed battle system ideas. As the Role Play Executive Officer, one of my most important jobs is to get new players to the RP. Although a fixed dice-like fixed battle system could be fun to some players, I'm afraid it might look complicated and scare off new players. Also, a system like this would probably increase the advantage gained from numerical superiority, which I do not like.
