Online nation building / trading games Support Apolyton, buy GURPS/ Alpha Centauri

Im looking for a good online nationbuilding / trading game I can play.

I know about Freeciv, Trade wars and others but and looking for suggestions of games you know of or have experience of playing.

What im mainly after is something pretty simple with a good intuitive interface and instructions. Perhaps something that fellow Apolyton's also play.

Let me know if you have any good games I can go look at, can you also post a link and a brief summary of the game.

Thanks you

Yay! Utopia!

Playing nation-building games seems to be a fad for me... I just joined Promisance (Matthous), and a couple of monts ago Nation states (Matthous) and Utopia as (you guessed it, Matthous, 25:50).

Say, I know it's probably a trade secret, but can you give me a couple of hints on how the Promisance world works- building strategy, relations, etc.?

I saw the Utopia Thread there. I'm in a small kingdom- we're just playing in the pond with the small fish . But I'm falling behind fast in Promisance.

I'm so confused now. Barley, what promisance are you talking about?
I went to ttp://www.promisance.org where there is one game, but now I google and get this link. Which is the right one.

Tired of ads?

A further google search turned up maybe 20 different Promisances... WTF?

St Leo: Xmoo seems to be down. It's the right link but I still get a 'page not found' error.

From XMOO htp file
Refer A friend
You'll get $200 for every registered player referred by you. And you'll get 1% commission on all the sales your referred friends made. For example if she bought 5,000 shares of Bender and later sold them for $6,000, she'll be charged 1%, ie $60. And you'll receive $60 from this transaction as well!


The wording seems to imply that I would get charged this on top of the 1% commision. If so what benefit is it to me to refer anyone as my friend?

There is no commission and there has never been any commission.

If your friend is active, you might eventually get a bonus of $2500 if you beg hard enough.:P

Increase Your PM Length

Matt, I play at http://www.promisance.org/ If you follow this link you should find the home page with access to the 4 servers. Server 1 is the most heavily supported. My username is Storm Warrior.

There are lots of Promisance games about but this one isnt to busy but is fun.

I started playing that promisance but I stopped after I discovered all 4,000 others . Are there 'known' build percentages that get good results?

re Xmoo: I've tried to register twice, but the confirmation e-mails never came. I sent queries to the recover address but never heard anything back Nothing in my spam folder, and I don't think my ISP uses a blacklist .
