Hmm i don't really read much spy stuff.

I could even use my extensive knowledge of lore to help craft it, though I'd definitely prefer playing.

ESO works for a 3-way soldiers thing. I'd play that but get stuck in Deshaan when I get too busy in real life to play the game.

I have it on my X1, so no monthly sub for my minimal play - but I have the X1 gold yearly subscription. At least I can use that with other things too (if I ever play).

While true, i guess my reluctance here comes to i've already run a LoL soldiers game and don't feel inspired by the concept. EccoRaven posted:The Great War - Imperials vs. the Thalmor - could work. True, maybe i'll run a second poll with the most popular options + other suggested ones to nail one down. Thanks for the offer, but if the flavour appeals to people as players that's probably more important than modding/writing.

It's an honest comment. I trust you'll make this game. I just think of making all sorts of different games, either by thinking about the setup or the flavour, but I know I can't pull them off before running out of steam so they never get off the ground.

So far farting is winning. If fart wins, i will do a fart, and so must everyone that voted for farting. Or you can post in thread that you farted and what your actual flavour choice would be and i will manually count it

The only game I've fantasized about making but never have because of lack of time/effort/skill/intelligence/creativity/gumption was France 2012, but if I couldn't make it in my prime I definitely can't make it now, so a dream it shall always be. also I now really want to play an elder scrolls soldiers game, consider my vote for two busb. I promise to be a Good Player and not criticize the modding too. busb posted:So far farting is winning. also I voted for star wars

Okay here are alternate soldier game ideas: Busb vs the anthropomophic representation of his overwhelming desire to rub his butt on things Cricket vs baseball A screaming chimpanzee waving a flight hand vs a space alien that says "gleep gloop" a lot A friendly robot vs an unfriendly kitty cat Ranchers vs farmers in the American West with the weapons being barbed wire and wire cutters
