Let's Play: Rulers of Nations!

It's that time again! Time for me to go out, take control of a nuclear-armed country, down a bottle of Bushmill's and try my best to not end the world. With your help of course.

If you remember my SuperPower LP, this game is a lot like that, only much better in a lot of ways. For one it hasn't crashed on me yet, and conflicts break out more frequently. The sheer amount of content is more than I can fit in this post so I'll just say, anything you can do as leader of a nation in the real world you can do in this game. Like anything.

It's a geopolitical simulator that lets you take control of any country you choose and do whatever you want. They even included world organizations like the U.N. that occasionally elicit your vote. They also give you an army of advisors from all facets of the government. If you don't like the drivel they're feeding you, you can fire them. Or if you really don't like them you can have them murdered! Fuck it! Last night my secretary of defense refused to authorize a nuclear strike with me, so I got him drunk to the point where he gave up the launch codes!

Though, I'm not going to run this like the last LP, assigning positions of power. We'll just control this country like an angry mob.

So first question. Who we being?

This has awful written all over it. I'll start the game tonight.

North Korea works. If we don't rule china by 2050, I will be very disappointed.

does this game allows you to continuously harass other countries without never striking against them?

...essentially playing the whole game in "im not touching you! im not touching you!" mode?

You can continually go in front of the U.N. and denounce countries. You can even slowly build a case against them to justify a war.

So...our economy is in shambles, our people are hungry, and Australia is on fire. Our minister of health has informed us that an AIDS epidemic is imminent unless we do something about it. I told him I was more interested in spreading cancer.

Our minister of defense has a look of absolute terror. Good. He's heard of us.

I'm not entirely sure where you guys would like to take this. Do you want to start threatening people yet?

Ministry of Defense ==> take nuke and flail it wildly at other countries.

Geminex · 04-02-2013, 10:07 PM

My suggestion would be to play nice for a couple years, score some sweet aid, and get our country in order. Then we strike.

akaSM · 04-02-2013, 11:12 PM

We could always strike and, after things are nice and calm, we strike again.

Can I please order an assassination against another world leader? Is that a thing I can do? Because that is totally a thing I want to do.

Also I would like to use some black ops funding to insert a terror cell into Mongolia/China, to stir up unrest ad start a proxy war between the two. We will, of course, be responsible for funding said proxy war and supplying both sides with arms.

No real reason, just shits and giggles.
