I do think these games benefit from a more known time period - my Roman Republic games suffered from that -, and while much depends on the player base a more familiar or engaging setting can make a drastic difference.

I wouldn't want to sound arrogant in any way, but truth be told I do consider Dynasties and Empires to be my next project and game and have already done extensive research on it. I'd like to keep that concept in reserve if that's okay.

My view is that if enough players send in their orders, then this game should continue. However, if most players still haven't sent in their orders, then we should try something else. The pre-World War II game sounds like it could be fun. Also, to Lumine, do you have any idea as to when you plan on hosting "Dynasties and Empires"?

Well, research is virtually finished and the map drawing is too (world map that is, haven't found a decent Europe map to edit in Paint), so I suppose the game is mostly prepared. I think I'll host it after Dkrol's game (the coming one, I mean) is over and if there isn't a sense of saturation or a need for players to rest after that.

Dkrol's game has basically ended as only two players sent their orders.

Well, I took his Pre-War suggestion to mean he would host such a game.
