Re: An Epic Generator...
Lol @ Wick re: turn #s
If nothing else, there is something very useful about this kind of thing, even if it eventually becomes predictable. It would allow people to read the events of other players in games they played in, the importance of which is the fact that you get to learn a little about why your enemies succeeded or failed. Being chronological in nature, it would also give you an idea of where the turning points in the game came about.

Re: An Epic Generator...
King of Dragon Pass was built around the idea of a saga that is being built. It's a little-known game, and quite interesting. I never played it much. Maybe I should give it another try now that my summer job is over.

Re: An Epic Generator...
Yes I loved KoDP. In discussion of storyline games it always gets brought up.

I don't remember for sure, but it's probable that I heard of it from you. However, that'd have been years ago.

Re: An Epic Generator...
I bought KoDP a number of years ago. Played it for a while but I never made sense of how to do well in the game. Some aspects of it were kind of silly like duck warriors. But an epic that makes sense and has rules a la Dominions would be really neat. You could read about your conquests after you win.
