  • OOC: game-mechanics proposal for Azan

    Given than Azan no longer exists, but a lot of the conflict between Ceroo-Guardinia and FCL-Auldonina revolves around control of their former territory (and, if I understand the roleplaying correctly, most of these nations have troops on the ground in Azan), maybe we should create a "Disputed Region of Azan" with a public password (eg, "apolyton") that can change hands depending on how the conflict goes.

    For example, maybe it should be created by Ceroo (and made as much like the original Azan as possible, sans government) then handed over to Frankychan to govern. Should the roleplay develop such that another nation takes over the area, either by force (Ceroo, Guardinia) or "peacefully" (Auldonina, the Hive), control should be given to that player. If the Apolyton Court intervenes, or we end up with peacekeepers on the ground, one of the judges (Basus) should assume control. Finally, if one nation manages to gain permanent control over Azan, the court could agree to let the nation be deleted again, and just add the territory to that nation.

    I realise this probably means more work, but I think it adds something tangible to the game play.

    Learn to overcome the crass demands of flesh and bone, for they warp the matrix through which we perceive the world. Extend your awareness outward, beyond the self of body, to embrace the self of group and the self of humanity. The goals of the group and the greater race are transcendant, and to embrace them is to acheive enlightenment.

      My sentiments exactly Chairman Lazerus. This intrigues me. But since Azan is currently under Frankychanland control, wouldn't it be more appropriate for myself to start controlling this nation? I don't mind "carving up" my island into former-Azan-now-under-my-iron-heel-Frankychanland and present day Frankychanland.........well, I don't know where I was going with this so I'll just shut up for now.

        I think you should control Azan, Frankychan. But Azan's starting point should be as close to the original as possible (given that it was Azazel's nation, IIRC, that probably means some kind of social-democrat state), and then given over to you to repress as you see fit.

        If you end up keeping it, fine. Eventually you should even be allow to absorb it completely. But if someone else takes it from you (through the course of roleplaying), even temporarily, they should address (or dismiss) whatever issues come up at the time.

          I like it! A whole new way to play NationStates. Just one comment: I suspect that it won't be able to be called "Azan" exactly, since new nation names aren't allowed to be identical to ones that have existed previously.

            I'm sure we could collectively come up with something... South Azan? The Former Yugoslavian Republic of Azan?

                Sounds good... and I'm sure there's plenty of permutations on the name you could do (Azania, Free Azan, etc).

                      How about just "Former Azan"?

                        Yes, that sounds best... it's not like it's actually going to come back, after all.

                        EDIT: Azan, that is.

                          Do we have enough input yet to try this out? I would like to get Frankychan's ok before we go ahead with it.

                              I should have read more closely... should I start up "Former Azan" then?
