Video Games with Historical Settings Anonymous 2016-07-04 02:06:40 Post No. 1367822 [Report]

So I saw this game (pic related) on a video game thread on here a week ago and I just played it and it was actually quite good but there were some things that were really bothering me, in some maps the titles are wrong like having an Emperor instead of a Vogt and a Sovereign instead of a Mayor.

Also women holding offices and certain is another thing that bothers me. The voting system ain't bad but can be improved to be more historically accurate for each map, the same can be said for the office titles.
And another thing that really bothers me is that there are no Italian maps considering that this game is about medieval city states I expected that it would have maps for Genoa, Florence, or any of the great number of cities in northern Italy.

So what are your favourite /his/ related video game?

It has some Hansa maps and most the maps are HRE maps.
I think some of them maybe made up cities.

Are DEFCON matches like frenetic Diplomacy matches? I really like the concept, but wikipedia makes the game seem to fast paced for me. I usually stick with turn-based strategy. What's your opinion of DEFCON?

I'm not the other guy but IIRC DEFCON had a major flaw in that the missiles are drawn in a ballistic arc going to the top of the screen, instead of least-time paths, so a north-south defense orientation was more effective and meant that Africa and South America where the "strongest" continents.
