OK, Armanus Zero is the title of the game I plan to create with this wonderful tool we have been blessed with. Here's the background to the plot I've quickly hashed out, I'd appreciate any comments / critisicm / corrections you have.
Quote
After the European Union merged to become one single governing body, to govern over the country now known as Europa. The United Eastern Countries decided that the forces of Europe were too strong to be left alone, and declared war. Although both sides had full nuclear capabilities, neither side wanted to use them, so the war was fought in the trenches rather than in the bunkers. By 2016, the casualties were running into the hundreds of millions, and both Europa and the countries governed by the UEC were falling into poverty. When the Europan government enlisted the help of the United States of America, the UEC launched nuclear warheads at every major city in America, causing billions to die and leaving the whole American continent horribly scarred. The Nuclear radiation caused whether patterns to go wild, blowing nuclear winds into South America and Canada, killing or mutating everything that stood in it's way.
The world reeled in shock at the swiftness and brutality of the attack, and almost overnight, the UEC invaded southern Russia and the western coast of Africa. Satisfied with their strategical position the UEC held their ground, and waited for Europa to make their next move. A hasty treaty was formed which joined the forces of the remaining Russian terror tries and the unoccupied African countries. The only countries who remained neutral, was the Australias and the small independent islands spread across the world.
The world is in economic and ecological disorder. The rate of exchange between each country is as erratic as the every changing ozone layer, which is now a weak shell against the harmful rays of the sun. The rich aristocrats and politicians inhabit the colony built on the moon, commanding the forces of earth as if they were mere pawns. Into this world you are born. Being a native Australian, you remain neutral in the UEC/Europa war.

Mine was actually the backstory for an EVO plug-in. Gave up on it, though. (too much work)
If you want an idea into what the games look and feel will be, then think: A fusion of Blade Runner esq Cyberpunk combined with the gameplay of Fallout.
Sounds lush, but a bit hard to do. How are you going to do it, and what does the player do?
It's a good story line for maybe EV, or another game, but an RPG seems a bit...un-suited. ~Gav

That's just the background mate, the PLOT will be suited for an RPG.
You seem to be on the same brainwave I am on. The story is good but what kindof RPG is it? Is it going to be similar to C&C; where you're current victory will change the game or like Realmz where you go around trying to find stuff. I think the idea is great but as you said, it needs a little more work to be suited for an RPG. Great name though.

It'll be like Realmz. Please remember that that is only the History, I'm not going to post the plot as that would give away the ending.

It is sometimes fun to antagonize someone until they do. This time I'll let you off. Tell me when you get it done though.

I've got it done, it was done ages ago.
The game is done??! Please let me try it!
------------------ Had to alter sig because it was pissing me off

Hehe, no I didn't mean the game was finished, I meant I'd started work on it. At the moment I'm doing a bucket load of concept art, I'll post when there done.
Ah, that is what I was thinking but I might as well have asked. Please do tell us when you are done, I do believe more of us want to try it than just me.
I agreee with you Desert Fox, Necromicon: Your game sounds very interesting!

Thank you veeeeery much.
