Reform
Re: Reform
...In any case, what's the whole deal with Annunia + etc? Or does that appear to be dead?

Re: Reform
As someone who once took part in recwars but gave it up when the points systems were adopted i personally feel a return to SNARL or similar is the best option. The simplicity of such systems means that taking part is easy (if i can work out the maths for it, anyone can) and more than that it minimises the amount of time we need to spend working out OrBats. The less time people need to spend making the OrBat and the more time they spend churning out thousands of words to complete a basic move the better, the fun mustn't be drained out of the process by making it so complicated to take part. If someone has to read a few page of rules and regulations the chances are they might opt to just not bother, and that has been very much my feeling.
Re: Reform
I'd also favor a return to the good ol' days of SNARL or even using an externally produced system like the DnD rules or the Advance recWars. SNARL was the last time I ever seriously recwarred as well so it will take something equally as un-demanding as it to get me excited again.

Re: Reform
Well the aim of these reforms I'm suggesting is to make SNARL available for all. The new structure I propose is something that enables recwarrers to choose from a list of rule systems and then see which one is best for them as I see it. Its all about choice!

But it's always BEEN about choice! People could always choose whatever they want!
Oh, very well. If all you succeed in is popularizing that fact, then that would be a pretty significant step forward.

Re: Reform
Now we're getting somewhere!
Although there was choice before it was complicated: not everyone necessarily knew of all of the sets, they weren't all easily available, judging was hard to arrange, different modified sets were used in different places. It's like saying there's choice in the US healthcare market.
