Bushwa777 Posted March 16, 2023 Share Posted March 16, 2023 (edited) @DJBillyShakes, @WVProgressive, @Rezi, @Bloot911, @ebrk85, @pman, @10centjimmy, @ShortKing, @OrangeP47, @Murrman104 Hi all, In the next few weeks I will be offering a new playtest. It will be for vets and newbies. I think I possibly could run maybe one slab myself but not be crazy like some of you and do multiple! But anyway I am judging interest in this and wanted to see what era you may be interested in playing. Also the tags above are people I know but of course it is open to all! 1. Era of Republicanism, 1800-1802 2. Era of Democracy, 1820-1822 3. Era of Manifest Destiny, 1840-1842 4. Era of the Gilded Age, 1868-1870 5. Era of Progressivism, 1892-1894 6. Era of Normalcy, 1916-1918 7. Era of Neocons, 1972-1974 Edited March 16, 2023 by Bushwa777 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pman Posted March 16, 2023 Share Posted March 16, 2023 I feel like the Progressive Era is one of the few eras we haven't play tested. I'd vote for a Era of Progressivism playtest. Of course, starting in Reconstruction would be interesting. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bushwa777 Posted March 16, 2023 Author Share Posted March 16, 2023 Gilded age would be cool as well since Senate would be picked by governor at that time making it easy for a newly like me 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DJBillyShakes Posted March 16, 2023 Share Posted March 16, 2023 I'm always happy to join. I think that Manifest Destiny or Gilded Age would be fun. I think that those eras are less tested other than the ongoing Manifest Destiny playtest, and their Civil War was rather brief thanks to the great Francis Granger. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OrangeP47 Posted March 16, 2023 Share Posted March 16, 2023 I see you have edited me into the header. I fear I must decline as I am already running up against the limits of my time commitments I can make. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dkh64 Posted March 16, 2023 Share Posted March 16, 2023 Interested and available provided you're not starting next week, I'm not sure how long it takes to set these up. Gilded Age, Progressivism, and Neocon eras probably appeal the most. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pman Posted March 16, 2023 Share Posted March 16, 2023 Would there be any interest in practicing players controlling multiple factions to playtest our ability to control multiple factions in the actual game? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrPotatoTed Posted March 17, 2023 Share Posted March 17, 2023 @Bushwa777 just a heads up that any new testers who haven’t played before will need to be approved by @vcczar. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bushwa777 Posted March 17, 2023 Author Share Posted March 17, 2023 Just wanted to check. Who that has expressed interest has never done a playtest? Also I am leaning toward gilded age just to make it easier come elections as I would only have to run house and gov every 2 years as senate would be appointed 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No it starts in 1868 and we move on from there like all it gives a starting date of two years. I will start right after Grant was elected with the people in place historically that were in cabinet or elsewhere under andrew johnson allowing whoever gets grant to make appointments Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
