In Li’s Lunchtime Poll #18: Not in Kansas, she asks:
What alternate-historical setting would you most like to play in, and why?
Wow, there are a number of great worlds I’d love to play in. One of the ones that has me intrigued is the Chronoplane Wars, The Empire of Time was particularly interesting.
I think it’ll work well because you can muck around with history without worrying about paradoxes– you can meet and negotiate with the big names of history. It’d also be cool as a conspiracy, since no one knows who runs the Intertemporal Agency… nor why people and missions are shunted around, why people have blocks– there is lots of room for internal politics.
