Epic Nations is a game where you control a nation and interact with nations controlled by other players.You can perform virtually any viable action by just stating it publicly here in this topic or PMing it privately to me.

Each nation can perform up to 3 actions per 24 hours, and those actions can be just about anything (attacking others, sharing resources, constructing buildings, etc). At the end of each 24 hour period I will post a summary of what occurred and reveal the results of relevant actions.

Nations can communicate with each other both in this thread and over PM, although if you do communicate over PM you must include me in all messages you send.

Overall wealth is the only thing I officially keep track of. However, individual resources are still important and will be considered when you perform certain actions.

Keep in mind you can keep your actions private if you wish by PMing me.

There are barbarian encampments scattered throughout the lands, containing primitive people with no internal government who occasionally attack nearby nations. Encampments are located in every civilization's land and can only be removed through several attacks with an army.

I should mention that the technology of barbarians tends to develop with respect to the average of the nations, so if your civilization is eclipsed in technology by most others then you will be hurt a lot more by the barbarians as well.

Horrible considering you have done literally no scientific research.

If this isn't considered a diplomatic move, let me know The.

King Shwartz99 and his council have drafted a proposal, seen below.

––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––

                      Treaty of Shwartzburg

The disease in Dougland is one which we must all band together to defeat - any effort, small or large, made by any nation will help. Thus, to increase effectiveness of finding a cure, nations should agree to the following:

   I. Nations shall not attack each other until the disease is eradicated.
   II. Nations shall decide on their own methods of preventing disease spread.
   III. A council shall be created made up of one representative from each nation's government to create ideas to stopping the disease. They will meet in this thread daily.
   IV. Aid shall be given to countries suffering from the disease if needed.
   V. Non-signatories shall not be punished in any way, and can still sign at any time.
   VI. Nations in agreement with the above policies should sign below.
   VII. This treaty is not to be mended under any circumstances and expires when the disease is destroyed.

Signed: King Shwartz99

Yes, all of that is purely diplomatic and does not require any actions.

Come to think of it, how can we communicate with each other, especially overseas? Passenger pigeons?

Perhaps we can just meet on this thread then, seems safe enough and has official structures.

The representatives should have a regular meeting place. Shwartzburg is a bit dangerous due to barbarian attacks.

Shwartz99 says

If anybody can help out and lend me a few armies to fight barbarians it would be great.


I'll pay in cash or diamonds, your pick. Send offers in pm please.


I got a good offer and I'll take it. No more help is needed with the issue.

I understand, you have to build ships before bringing your army to my land.

It seems that nobody wants to use an action to help me out with my barbarian troubles. Until somebody does, or the barbarians are wiped out, King Shwartz99 is sorry to say that we'll be somewhat preoccupied throughout the next couple of days. Any shipments of anything may be delayed, and finding a cure for the disease will take a while.

Yes, you all can use your armies to attack barbarians in other nations.

You can also use your spies to perform counterintelligence in your own nation.
