Looking for a system

[Cute_Riolu]

Mostly to assuage the tactics portion of my brain -- I'm having a hard time finding something PvP similar to Erfworld or Civilization, in P&P form. Any suggestions? I'm not the most up on all the systems out there. :P

Warhammer, I would believe.

Warhammer is more about tactics and combat, Civ & Erf both have a strrong component of resource management, logistics and strategy about them. While I'm sure a P&P equivalent exists, I can't for the life of me think of one at this moment. I'll get back to this if I remember a good one.

We occasionally joked that someone should combine Risk with Settlers. Get yourself one game of risk and four games of settlers and go at it.
You can only get resources from hexes controlled by your Risk units, but you also need to pay for new units with resources from your hexes.

Yeah, that's the main thing; I'd like something with an element of, as you said, resource management, logistics, and long-term strategy.

Well, at the risk of invoking Captain Obvious ... Civilization was a P&P game before it was a computer game.

Have you looked at Reign?

The 1979 Dune board game is like Risk while having resource management and tactical and strategic play. You can't buy it anymore, but you can download all the rules and the map online. It is really tied into the Dune series of novels, particularly the first three, which is a good thing cause those are amazing books. That's my suggestion anyways. It's a board game, so its obviously not as deep as an RPG or computer game, but it has a staggering amount of depth, especially when played with several players.

Also, this might be better received on Gaming (Other).

If you want a Dune-like board game, Rex: Final Days of an Empire does a fair job of reimplementing the Dune rules.

That said, the OP stated he was looking for a P&P RPG.

@Cute_Riolu: If Reign isn't what you're looking for, you may also want to check out Burning Empires or possibly even Exalted - though it has a lot of other baggage.

OP only said he was looking for a P&P game, and the examples the OP gave, Civilization and Erfworld, are hardly RPGs.

That being said, it sounds like you should be looking on the Gaming (Other) forum rather than here.
