EU3: Divine Wind Succession Game

[Ibn-Khaldun]

Gah! I would join but don't have Divine Wind yet.

So, how does this work? You agree on a nation, say... Castille, and then when the monarch dies you pass the save file onto the next person? So that the story would tell the tale of the evolving country?

I'd play, but I'm not exactly good at the game; I usually play with AI aggressiveness low, Easy difficulty and no inflation... cos I suck. :P

You got the idea!

Oh and don't worry about your preferences. I also play with those.

[Secura]

And in Divine Wind, even if you reduce AI aggressiveness, you still have cascading alliances that rapidly leave me wondering "why does Creek give a hoot about me subjugating the Scottish?" or whatnot.

I'd still play this though. :3

[Beskar]

I am up for a play.

Yep, that's it exactly. Here's an example of a game we started as Naples in the MMP2 mod. It didn't get very far, but it should give you an idea of what it's about. You can be as brief or as detailed as you'd like in the write-up. As long as you generally give a basic account of what happened during your reign, that's perfectly fine. A paragraph or two without any screenshots is good enough; if you want to write more beyond that you can knock yourself out.

Don't worry about difficulty at all. The entertainment is from watching the evolution of the nation over time as it's controlled by different people with different goals and different play styles. Conquering the world is not necessary, and is usually more boring than a game where simple survival is a struggle.

We can narrow down the faction by first deciding the area of the world we're interested in. I'd like to veto the Americas, Sub-saharan Africa, and Japan (don't like the way DW handles it). I am personally more interested in North Africa/Middle East, India, Southeast Asia, and non-HRE Europe (East or West).

[edit] First post updated with the bare-bones rules and a player list (order in which people signed up). Anyone else who is interested will be added on to the end of the list. Once the end of the list is reached, the game will loop back around to the beginning and continue until whenever.

Count me in, any faction as long as I'm not first. ;P

[TriforceV]

Yeah I'm down with this too, I lurve EU3

[Ignoramus]

I don't have DW, but I'd enjoy reading an English game.

Ok, I'm going to start the game up tomorrow, so it would be nice to get some more faction input. If you don't want to pick a specific faction, at least let me know which area of the world you'd prefer to be in.
