RecWar

MRWS is terrifically complex. I'm quite sure it's all very precise and all that, but SNARL is a bit more... pick up and play.

i like more complex stuff it gets stuff done how it should be done.

Meh, let's use ITRA. It's a slightly underpowered version of SNARL and seems to work alright in Tokidoki...

but the more complex it is the more it is like real world systems and the better the realism the more fun... fun in a sense of large calculations and loopholes in the event of war.. but i'm sure you guys find that fun too

You want loopholes, try a magic war ...
We thought we had rules ... now, 3/4's through, we have a long list of things to discuss when it's over, and I finally just discovered the no-Godmodding one ..

Complex stuff is only good if you know what you're talking about. Everyone knows what a dragon or an ent is. What a F-19 Bomber is compared to an F-18, or F-17? I'd have no idea ...

Strength based is like ITRA, Lyam, but lets you move the strength around a little more (instead of having the same force with each commander ... much easier to share friends units if they can't be on all the time)

Anyone else want a war? Especially ones that haven't had a chance to join one yet?

dude there is a reason we are using the internet to have our own countrys because we don't follow real world rules, because there are no rules in cyberspace and having a budget just makes it stupidly complex, time consuming and boring so SNARL sounds the best to me

Why does'nt MCS write there own Recwar rules which are for use when a recwar is fought on MCS territory.

Guido Zambelis · Post by **Guido Zambelis** » Fri Apr 13, 2007 2:42 pm

they did that then they gave up.

The MCS Way

Andreas the Wise · Post by **Andreas the Wise** » Fri Apr 13, 2007 4:39 pm

Frankly, you can choose which rules you want in a war anyway, so if you really wanted, MCS could write their own again ....
But MRWS is meant to control it now ...

it would be much easier if there was only one map ...

The coolest people left before the other map arrived on the scene.

Umm, Swamp Candle, before you get too angry, note that Pete practically IS MRWS, he's one of the key leaders. And MRWS is an organisation, not a person (you referred to it as him)

like the French and the Germans with their gendered nouns

SNARL is so much better the MRWS, its quicker and easier to begin with.

Except S.N.A.R.L. has become inactive.

Guido Zambelis · Post by **Guido Zambelis** » Mon Apr 16, 2007 3:06 pm

they refer to the ruleset.

Zatriarch Maximillideus · Mon Apr 16, 2007 6:05 pm

Well, SNARL is the most popular for a good reason- it's simple and efficient.
I wouldn't advise restarting the MRL on these fora again, but if we were ever to co-ordinate a recWar on these fora, I'd say we use SNARL.

Bayen · Post by **Bayen** » Mon Apr 16, 2007 6:47 pm

Or ITRA...

(Yes, we Tokidokians keep pushing for ITRA)

Zatriarch Maximillideus · Tue Apr 17, 2007 7:54 am

ITRA?

Andreas the Wise · Post by **Andreas the Wise** » Thu Apr 19, 2007 3:36 am

Inter-Tokidokian-Recwar-Association.

Fairly similar to SNARL, but again, slightly simpler, and with only 10000 troops.

Zatriarch Maximillideus · Thu Apr 19, 2007 3:58 am

So does ITRA use magic like Tokidoki does?
