I'm not sure if these were included under different names, but here are some more government types:

-Proletariat Dictatorship
-Republic (not to be confused with a democracy)
-Aristocracy (because who doesn't like Plato?)
-"Prussian Constitutionalism" (i.e. a limited constitutional monarchy)
-Plutocracy (probably the same as a Corporate-State, but I'm not sure)
-Empire (pretty much autocracy, though)

A proletarian dictatorship fits into either a Party-state or a socialist democracy.

I don't see how a republic doesn't fit into demarchy, oligarchy, or parliamentary democracy.

Aristocracy fits into either oligarchy or feudal monarchy.

Constitutional monarchy is intended to represent prussian constitutionalism.

Yes, thats correct.

I don't see how an empire wouldn't just fit into one of the other categories of monarchy.

Thanks for clarifying. I can't wait for this game to get going! :)
 
Ok, Map is now nearly done, expect the game to start by next week.

How goes progress?

Essentially the same as the last time I posted. I still expect it to be released by next week; I've been too busy to work on the map so I won't be able to do that till this weekend.

It's largely the same story for me, hence why there's been no progress on the maps front since earlier this week. My understanding is that we're nearly ready, though.

Your ancestors? I know you're drunk, but are you sure you didn't mean descendants? :p

Nope. As soon as the forum game starts, half of the playerbase will consist of risen zombies. Remember: It will be the greatest forum game ever. Everyone should have the chance to play it. :)

Look, I agree that it's a nice sentiment, but aren't you forgetting that this isn't in the fantasy genre. After all, if we include the zombies you just know that the vampires and werewolves will petition for entry.

We could call the game "Civilization Twilight". :D

I actually realized that it was a pretty cool idea (given enough restrictions) right after I posted that. Also, don't forget the lizardmen, the werebuffaloes, and the bigfoot/yetis.

You're being quite frankly naive if you don't think this game's awesomeness will reverse the linear flow of time, LK. :rolleyes:

Your assumption that it is linear based on the paltry knowledge mankind has on how time works is adorable.
 
Ok, Map is nearly done, game will hopefully be released tonight or tomorrow.
 
The HYPE is real.
 
Remember. Me. Pyramids. Dibs. ;)

On a more serious note. I am desperately interested in the rules for this one.
 
We're calling dibs? Okay then, dibs on the civilisation that conquers the known world! :p

HYPE! \o/\o/\o/
