Hey ya'll...
Maybe old news to some but for those who don't know... There are too many RPG's like the ArmySystem: Kings of Chaos - original armysystem game Fall of Empires - From the creators of KoC Mediwar - From the creators of KoC as well, but not as fun lol The Dark Throne - more options but wears out quickly in my opinion Rise of Tyrants - more futuristic like army system, easy in use and a of of turns when you start... 19800 turns! (note-don't let anyone click your recruitlink on RoT, cuz it will make armory more expensive) Please don't use this thread to spam that your better then anyone, but only to give info about these games and maybe more links to similar games. Thanx  Peace This post has been edited by NilsC: May 7 2005, 08:31 PM |

There's not only these game, there are too much out there...
outwar have tried to find out who is their competitor and ask google. this is the result: QUOTE Hello Emailproject, The best way to find out the competitors to Kings of Chaos and Outwar (and how well they rank) is to search the Google Web Directory for "Kings of Chaos" and "Outwar", and check the other entries in that category [1]: Google Directory - Games > Internet > Browser Based > Strategy http://directory.google.com/Top/Games/Inte.../Strategy/?il=1 The higher up on that page, the more popular. (That doesn't mean the site is the busiest or makes the most money, even though it helps as an indicator -- rather this is speaking in terms of Google's definition of web popularity, that is, PageRank and so on.) Also, entering related:www.kingsofchaos.com [2] into Google gets some sites, similar to using the TouchGraph Google Browser [3], but it's not as useful as above strategy. Added to that it's a good idea to search the web and Google Groups for strings like "it's like Kings of Chaos", but this didn't yield too many results this time. Finally, one can use Google Sets [4] using two or more terms, but I already got enough results from the first strategy of looking up the category. Now, the somewhat harder part of your question is "how long have they been in business", but then again that can be approximated by looking up the date the domain was created. I use a WHOIS-database lookup [5] for that purpose and will give you the dates here for the top 10 (top-level .com/.net) competitors, along with the site description: 1 ------------------------- Pyrostar http://www.pyrostar.com/ "Turn-based game in which players control empire, from the military." Created: 16-Sep-1998 2 ------------------------- Merchant Empires http://www.advancedpowers.com/ "A web based sci-fi RPG. Turn-based strategy game of space exploration and economic competition.

Thanx Peace let me correct a few things. outwar was the orriginal mmorpg (web based.) koc out grew it probably because it made more sense... i mean whats with the gangsters rockstars and aliens? secondly, fallofempires has NOTHING to do with koc, none of the koc admins have worked on the game the only thing we share are the same forums ( www.giveupalready.com ) mdiewar also has nothing to do with koc it is however a koc clone, which basically means it was written to look like and play like koc.
