A question

[Thorgils Tarjeisson]

Would anybody mind especially if I took this over and turfed the Anunia Convention onto the bonfire of history?

[Yastreb]

As Anunia has long since defecated the proverbial bed, and my subsequent idea of applying organic consensus governance to a six-front world war was catastrophically naive not entirely successful, by all means have a shot at putting together something more coherent.

As ever, 'Godmod proof' and 'low maintenance' seem to occupy opposite ends of the recwar governance spectrum - good luck reconciling them, I say

[Hālian]

Not unless and until there's a viable and more critically better replacement for it.

Also, please don't delete anything, just archive it.

[Ryker]

Good to see we're all keeping our reasonable heads about us.

[EF2000]

get rid of the convention. Like Anunia is long gone.

[Edgard]

Archive Anunia, proceed to take over as desired.

[Joe]

I'm sure Anunia won't go down without a fight. Who's preparing the OrBats?

[Thorgils Tarjeisson]

I'd say my preferred replacement has the flexibility to encompass a 15th century melee in Saint-Antoine as well as it would a tank battle in the irradiated ruins of Jingdao (wish fulfilment scenario there... indulge me please), without being mired in the seemingly arbitrary points scale favoured by Anunia.

Orbats would be prepared by participants, subject to hoots of derision suggestions from the arbitrator.

After your visions of reducing Kalgachia to molten glass and carbon powder, I'm not sure we have the choice to deny you such wistful imaginings

As for Anunia... I'm pretty sure it already went down without a fight. It was dismissed without a whiff of protest at the very beginning of the last major recwar and widely considered unworkable even when it was in operation (the multi-page whirlpools of procedural bitching in the archives attest to this).

The more I think about it, the more I can get behind the 'Propaganda Principle' - the key lies in willingly embracing the old maxim that truth is the first casualty of war rather than trying to fight it - as long as participation is adversarially sportive (as opposed to cooperatively pre-gaming the entire outcome) objective consensus at the participant level has been demonstrated under multiple governance systems to be impossible - so at the very least, I think it's time to stop smashing our heads against that particular wall.
