BlogNomic: The First Dynasty of Desertfrog

Looks good to me but it’s an at-enactment race again, because this favors whoever does it first.

Maybe an auction or something that gives equal chance? Being an Admin is too much of an advantage for this, as proven many other times (for example, my own Dynasty).

It’s not happening in a vacuum, though. An enacting admin’s Weapons Inspections still need the support of other players (or some serious commitment to Intel+Science), and seem likely to provoke a negative reaction from whichever CIC is Inspected.

Funny that the Weapons Inspection reveals so much information, except for information about the weapons.

I don’t like the enactment race but that could be fixed before an Inspection executes.

I agree with Cuddlebeam. additionally, looking at the techs is a little weird. Why aren’t we instead looking at targeting?

It’s funny in the first place that you can make “International Esteem” secret, so that other nations can’t tell how much they esteem you. It feels like we’re using it to mean something else now.

I picked Techs as they represent an upcoming private change in IE (where missile targetting has a more public effect), but only to make the rule a bit more multipurpose than just “negate Iron Curtain”.

CoV. I would prefer though to drop Iron Curtain completely, as it makes me nervous during ticks to have this opaque process that I might do wrong. I’d leave it up to the international community to decide what the fair way to do that is, if that’s something other people want.

If I get rewarded for holding onto so much Intel, or a full refund of the 40 Intel and a bit more, I’d be pretty open to it.

Alternate proposal now.
