FOR THE MERCANTILE FACTION!

MORE TRADE ROUTES, LESS TAXES, AND FEWER ENTITLEMENT PROGRAMS!!!

The poor already have government grain, and can bathe in the river, and sleep in a big pile for warmth. All they ever do is browse and steal, they never buy anything.

Lousy Civic faction is always trying to take my money and build things for them. Bleeding heart tax-and-spend-o-crats.

Or +1 Populist for more.... babies.

So are you in, ATPG?

POPULISTS?

*shudder*

Those political extremists will be the death of this Republic. They'll stop at nothing, not even civil war, to get what they want. And what they want changes by the day. A bunch of unwashed hooligans is all they are. Flighty, incompetent peasant folk! They should all be crucified. And they would, if I had my way.

I sell wooden crosses, you know.

I'll gladly hire me, my army, and our pointy swords out to do away with these uncooth ruffians.

Wow.. The game started without me knowing about it.

Anyway, is this correct?

ATPG - Mercantile
Double A - Military
Diamondeye - Populist
slashandburn - Mercantile
God Emperor - Religious
Romanic - Populist

Would like to see someone in the Civic faction as well..

I promised to reveal more if there is enough interest. So, here I go..

The Rules

1. There are turns that last 24 hours.
2. Player can vote once per hour.
3. Each turn Consul must be elected. To do it player must post Vote: Name.
4. Consuls powers:
1) Can once a day give +2 to his faction while reducing the power of another faction by -2.
2) Can once a day declare someones vote invalid.
3) Being a Consul will give some personal popularity.
5. Personal popularity shows how popular you are among the citizens. Higher popularity will give more power for that player.
6. Each faction will give certain bonuses to the players.
7. It is possible to kill other players. So, don't be surprised if you get PM stating that you are dead.
8. Killed players can join the game again 1 turn after they died.
9. It is possible for new people to join the game all the time but they can start voting only after I have accepted them.
10. There is more but that will be revealed during the game.
11. PM's from me can not be posted in the thread.

I'll start the game in the morning and send out PM's(factions bonuses, popularity). If more people want to join then let me know.

[Romanic]

I didn't realize we had to pick a side, but Populist is fine.

Won't factions with more players have an advantage?
