Default OT Does anyone know....
Do any of you guys know what a "board war" is? Because if you do maybe we could all start one here using some of the races we use in SEIV or something.....whaddya all think?

If you don't know what it is I'll explain in detail.

A boardwar is an interactive story that is also part game

There are many types of boardwars some are character based others fleet or army based. You basically create either a character or a race and then enter the boardwar universe and start posting story threads in response to or starting other players responses. Battles are fun And in some cases so is negotiation .

If anyone would like to give one a try I could make one up for us.

Ya I think I do, it is a forum based RPG kind of thing right?

It can be an RPG but it can also be a fleet based board war or an army board war where you play the role of a race in the universe and interact with other player races and they interact with you so it all depends on how you guys play against each other on whether you make peace or war .

So it is bascially a roleplay community like the old Universe Ladder... board war sounds more like it would be flame wars running rampant.
