    Default World Creation System

    Few years ago found a recruiting thread that had info about a system where multiple players play "gods" and slowly change landscape and essentially make a world. I know each turn each players had an action they could do like create a forest, mountain ect.

    Anyone have any ideas what the system was?

    A good houserule my group came up with was giving each race 1d6 of points a turn as well. That way you don't feel as chained to one race as you do in the existing rules.

    Wow, with a little streamlining and re-balancing, this one has great potential. I suddenly feel the urge to dig out my "Settlers of Catan"-box and bastardize the two into a new board game.

    Want a generic roleplaying system but find GURPS too complicated? Try GMS.

    Interesting idea, but how do you decide on spending those points? Through a vote or the creator of a given race spends them?
    In a war it doesn't matter who's right, only who's left.

    We went with whoever currently "owned" the race was allowed to use them. The creator is typically the owner, but at one point a race switched hands from one player to another so we allowed the new player to start spending the points. The banked points were removed in that case though.
