The Computer games such as Empire Earth or Starcraft should be used in carrying out disputes between countries. :arrow: :idea: :twisted:

Wouldn't a RTW (real time wargame) be better? Something like the Close Combat series?

umm... the point of NS is roleplay and learning... if we just played a video game, we wouldn't learn anything.

besides, more fun to play this way :) You don't have to play within the programming... just simple text and pics.

Or perhaps the ubiquitous Street Fighter 2?

:idea: http://www.worldrps.com/
The only FAIR way to settle these disputes.

(ie, i'm no good at RTS games or streetfighter games. I doubt anyone would think deathmatching has anything to do with nations.)

I think a complex formula should utilized. One in which when you enter "Sketch", I always win :P That failing, just declare me winner all the time anyways.

[code:1:90d80e7760]// this program is an official NS warfighting program
// it is completely 100%* fair

// it was written by Scolopendra the Game Mod
// and thus is totally** official too

#iostream;
#string;

int main ()
{
string country;

cout << "Insert the name of your country: ";
cin >> country;
cout << endl;

if(country=="sketch")
cout << "You win.";

else
cout << "You lose.";

return 0;
}

// * and by 100% we mean "not at all"
// ** and by totally we mean "absolutely not endorsed
// by Max Barry and thus utterly not"[/code:1:90d80e7760]

Now that is what I call quality programing. When I take over the world, I'll hire you to be my main programer!

There is a method of fighting wars. You type 'I declare war.' Then I type 'The big brain am winning again!' and defeat you.

Craps.

All NS wars should be determined by playing craps. Or maybe drinking games.

And I'd be proud to be your programmer, Sketch. Hopefully the pay is really, really, really good. Like GNP of Monaco good.

I declare war on Scolopendra, and you're buying the first round! Bwa ha ha!

*rolls a 10*

'Curse...Err...Royal Flush?'

*rolls a 2 and a 4, makes 6*

*Wonders when the drinking games start. Has whiskey*

*has no booze and thus works with craps*

*rolls a 3 and a 1, makes 4*

*Comes in*

*takes dice, rolls, snake eyes*

Damn.......that's good, right?

Look at that!

*points*

*scurries out before he's declared loser*

*Ph34rs teh maths and goes back to drinking self into surly oblivion*

heheheh.... If you guys wanna do this, General, guys? ;)

Shut up! I'ma moderltular...O cn' do ennythung!

[Drunkenly deletes LE and the women who love him]

EE of coz
starcraft's not relistic enough =]

*Does a crap... oooh snake eyes!*

Wandererz and Sk8erz, the whole point is we don't use a game. This is roleplay. If we play all hell breaks loose, your men never run out of ammo and never need feeding. Theres no point in cutting off supply lines because they don't need them.

I agree whole heartedly now excuse me...
