What are these games?

NationStates is a nation and political simulation. It's more along the lines of SimCity on autopilot. You can create a nation by answering a few questions about what it would be like, and then you can watch your nation grow. You can change how your nation reacts to something by Issues. Issues are basicly petitions by the computer-generated population to change something about the nation. One such issue is the controversy of Harry Potter books. Do you want to promote them like a knowledgeable nation, or do you want your nation to be religiously fundamental and burn the Harry Potter books?

Cyber Nations is more hands-on and less political. It's all about the numbers with CN. Once in a blue moon, you will get an issue you need to deal with, but they will not dominate your play as much as NationStates.

If you want war, trade, and general interactions between nations, go with Cyber Nations. If you want a detailed look at how your country's politics can be changed by your hands, go with NationStates.

NationStates seems to pop up here every few months. Obviously quite popular. I might try out CyberNations.

Anyway, my NS country - Nepolonia. I'm the Defense Minister for the region of India.

CyberNations sucks, and pales in comparison to NS once you get to the roleplaying... My nation (mwahaha) and the forum I RP at (and am admin for).

Oh... and get lost with the interregional RP. Intraregional RP and factional strife for ze win! We in Europe don't really give a[n excrement] about the rest of ns.net, for we are savage, unclean and uncivilized, preferring to bash each other's heads in rather than other regions'.

Since it would seem there is a good sized fanbase at the .org for text based RTS's, here's one i've been playing for a month now - www.ogame.org

Very fun space based game. It takes forever to get built up, but once you've been playing for a while you end up having massive space battles. Apparently battles among the more established players involve hundreds of thousands of ships.

Currently i have a small fleet of 10 light fighters, 8 heavy fighters, 4 small cargo ships (for taking the loot home!) and 2 cruisers, which completely pwn the enemy defences.

I'm having a small war right now with one of my neighbours. Very fun!

I also have three planets under my control right now, but i'm suffering a bit of crisis with regards to my resources, as they are running very low.

If there's anyone already playing who wants to come and have a spy at me with an espionage probe, my co-ordinates are 1:277:11.
