Theme ideas
As people don’t seem to be too invested in the current theme, I think it would be best to start afresh with a new theme. I really only have one fleshed out theme prepared, but the sort of gameplay I have in mind for that dynasty is much too similar to the previous (ais’s) one, so I’d like to save that one for another time. Here are some ideas I do have:
1. An Absurdist dynasty, like Elias IX’s vegetable dynasty. Players are Sheep, I am the Shepherd.
2. Insects. Players are nests of ants, bees and wasps competing for food and territory.
3. Mining Camp Expedition, loosely based on Dwarf Fortress (credits to Put for the inspiration). The gameplay would take place on the wiki on this map. Players can dig into the mountain, chop down trees, construct buildings, hunt and fish etc.. and change the map accordingly. I’m leaning towards this one.
Does any of these strike your fancy? Ideas and suggestions are, of course, welcome.
Josh: he/they
I like the idea of the DF theme, but given that the new version just came out I can only take so much encroachment of DF into my time… Given that, I’d probably prefer the insect one best.
