Nah, the only strong influence was this:

Car Wars Boardgame

Other than that, it's all my accumulated ideas about what I think should be in an ideal game (online and computerised or otherwise). I started making boardgames when I was about 6 or 7 (in the 1970s) and it continued onto computers when I was a bit older.. with some time playing pen&paper RPGs too of course..

The great thing about computers is the level of detail they can manage. While boardgames need to simplify and streamline, computer games can get really anal about detail and accuracy. As viKKing pointed out to me recently, DW is more of a wargame than an RPG.

true.  if someone wants more rpg, they could always run around the room and act that out, but when it comes to the fight scenes, they fire up the cpu.

:)



i'm actually going to play a car wars game today, based on this PBEM that i haven't started yet:

Hey Jim that's cool.
Nice work. It's ending in a strange and too fast way, but the tempo and sounds are good.

Good one Jim.

Maybe a good ringtone for a wakeup. Quite relaxing in the beginning. I like it.

When I saw this and looked at everything I thought you might have gotten your inspiration from car-wars.. such a fun game, i liked it a LOT, I think they had a computer based version of car-wars for awhile.. I use to play car-wars a ton.. such a shame that there wasn't much development for it.. something in the mineatures world that advanced it.. along the lines of hero-clix or something like it.
