[quote=Pepperm1nts] Starting over sounds so exhausting though. We'd be doing the same series of posts. Prussia would do the same thing (unite Germany), and in turn, so would Austria (try to prevent German unification). We'd be playing the same thing all over again, putting out very similar posts. I'd rather spend my energy doing something different. I'd prefer we just do a different timeline. [/quote] I disagree. WiR is never the same. To take the Paradox WiRs as an example, 1861 Mk I and 1861 Mk II were completely different; as are 1920 Mk I and the ongoing Mk II. Different people playing different nations half the time, lessons learned from Mk I taken into account, different agendas etc. I'd be fine continuing and helping you all out -- 1861 is my far my fave time period for WiR -- but starting afresh isn't half bad either.
