Back to: Radioactive Tide Revised (Map Game)
- BE PLAUSIBLE! But remember, plausibility does not have to impede fun.
- One day in real life is one year in Radioactive Tide.
- Keep in mind the effects of conquest, realistically portray assimilation.
- Please make it painfully obvious what moves you are doing.
- Expansion would be difficult, depending on the location. For example, an nation in the desert or island would have an hard time expanding then a nation in the Great Plains.
- You should do an action every year.
- If no actions for ten years (unless reason given, e.g. holiday) then the nation is open for takeover.
- If no actions for 30 years (no possible reason you could miss a month really but surprise me) then the nation becomes a grey nation.
- A new map is made every five years, and complaints can be made on the talk page!
- Each player should be specific about expansion or post maps onto the map makers talk page or the map game talk page.
- There will be a war algorithm, and players will have to abide by it.
- Your economy will need to be tended to.
- Internal politics ARE important.
- Technology can be player developed or randomly re-discovered (done by mods).
- Every nation starts off with 300px maximum and mods can create neutral nations.
- Every nation is allowed 2 vassals at the start (maximum 150px). However, only 1 new vassal can be gained every 15 years.
- Kunarian still reserves the right to annoyingly stop you from developing Nukes, Space Flight and Alien Space Batteries aka if he feels that you have not RPed it to the point were such technologies are likely to come about then he can stop you from developing them.
- This game will stop in year 715.
Starting a Nation[]
You may wish to start a nation (do note that the first nations will be player started). If so then it will start off small, 300px maximum and they have to all be touching in a central mass, they can also be smaller. You must also come up with an explanation of its appearance. Providing a map of the place you want would be good too.
You can also RP new nations starting too, around your lands or if you have the resources overseas, this will require your nation to help set them up of course. These nations could be used to resist your opponents or give you an ally.
Mods can also create neutral nations.
Remember this is to increase the development of the game and make it more interesting.
Turns[]
To work out how many turns you can have simply check your nation against this:
