Re: Project Epsilon (Science Fantasy Wargame/Tabletop RPG concept)

Invictus said: I do see what you mean by the Carnemicum, because they do read like they're from a later sourcebook in a 90s RPG line, which obligates them to have their own special rules and subsystems to make them stand out from the starting factions. It's very SLA Industries. Carnemicum was total...

Europe was surprisingly tough to write despite their small continent size and relatively (I thought) similar cultures.

Do the Greeks allow for freemen to work their way into becoming Citizens ala Imperial Rome or Heinlein's Terran Federation from the book Starship Troopers? Or are they stuck being freemen only? For the most part, there is a way for people to become a voting citizen. It usually varies between City t...

That protection is of course reliant on them handing over their prized technology to the ritual obsessed cultists. My idea for writing this is also based on 40k fans arguing at various points that the Imperium (the 'cruelest and bloodiest regime imaginable' according to every single 40k novel) is n...

Freaky! At first I was thinking the Gloguk would try that with Tyxian stuff but I realized Tyxan biological stuff would probably be dangerous to turn into food.

Re: General Info, Q&A, etc.

I swore I posted up the response; this and last week has been pretty lucid with all the test prepping.

I was gonna say though that the various factions do alot of terraforming, and if they don't enslave or subjugate the population, throwing them into a giant blender is probably what happens.
