[quote=TheSovereignGrave] I'm not a big fan of systems like that, to be honest. As for the canal, it looks like there is a small section of non-mountainous terrain that it could go through. [/quote] I imagine in between the mountains would be super hilly, is what I was meaning. And I'm not a fan of those kind of systems either. They bug me a lot unless it was planned like that from the beginning, and that usually takes the game to an advanced level. [quote=Jonesy] I'd prefer seeing a year go by every 18 days or so, because battles that last a week in game could take 6 days to roleplay. This also allows more detailed roleplay such as delegations to move forward while an army training academies take 9 days. Also, since there's gonna be 10 different storylines. It'd be cool if at the top of your post, you put which nations are affected by said post. [/quote] Why not just jump it up to 21 days and have it be three weeks, then? Just my opinion
