Politics and Diplomacy

Politics and Diplomacy
Reading through the ideas thread I saw someone mention Diplomacy from the debacle Vanguard. While I think that game turned into junk fast, I think the idea of a diplomacy system as a third sphere (combat and crafting being the other two) was a very good idea... not the card system per say.
What do you think? Would some kind of diplomacy system and sets of quests be a good thing in a Star Wars game?
Thinking about the movies and such, I'd say that diplomacy or ability to...

Yet another diplomacy fix
(12 Dec 2008)
INFLUENCE OTHERS
You can change the attitudes of others (nonplayer characters) with a successful Diplomacy check, and win them over to your point of view.
The Stances: Helpful (+10), Friendly (+5), Indifferent (0), Unfriendly (-5), and Hostile (-10)
Action: Changing another's attitude requires at least one full minute of conversation, or one full round action with a -10 penalty. The character may then make a diplomacy check. The DC of this check is 10, with the skill check modified by the target...

World's shortest books
(04 Nov 2008)
As a kid I remember someone telling me a joke about the world's shortest books being:
The Italian book of war heroes
The Ethiopian book of recipes
The Irish book of knowledge
Anyway, I got to thinking about the world in 2008, and some other ideas popped into my head. So, feel free to add to my list:
The Zimbabwean book of sound economic strategy.
The Japanese book of common-sense.
The Somali book of pacifism.
The American book of diplomacy. (I should say the American Republican book )
The Englis...

Speculation on Diplomacy, Nationality, and other matters.
(21 Dec 2008)
Perhaps I am getting the wrong idea here. And we certainly dont know too much about the game, but from what little I have gleaned from the diplomatic stand point it may be much tougher to go to war than it has in the past.
The parts about upsetting the populous when going to war with other factions they my look favorably on sort of rings a little bell.
So I suppose that some factions will be more difficult to go to war with just because of public opinion and depending on your government there w...

Critique Please - Human Warchanter Build
(06 Dec 2008)
Hello, my friend is grinding out his last bit of favor to reach a 32 point build and when he does, I want to make a supporting/buffing character for him to adventure with. I have access to 32 point build and I was thinking of Warchanter/melee Bard. I have never made one, and I have looked on the internet and the boards very little, so I am not sure if this build is out there. So this is my take on it, and would love any advice. Oh, my friend is 22 favor away from 1750, so the sooner I get sugges...

will american foreign policy be "business as usual" under obama?
(07 Nov 2008)
Dear Friends,
I'm curious as to what people think about this. Does Obama's election signal a major shift in US foreign policy? Or will it be business as usual, just a shift in style but not substance?
I hope that Obama really does change the US approach to the world. Certainly, he will be an improvement over Bush. But will the US be more cooperative? Will it actually try to use diplomacy?
I have not yet heard of any reaction on Obama's part to Iranian President Ahmadinejad's congratulations. Thi...
