Achaea was awesome for the combat system, the classes, and the city governments. There were multiple major cities that all had player run governments and would often be attacked by other player cities. The world events were pretty neat too. All the IMMs played as the gods of the world. When Gaea quit the game, they played out that her god died and the forests all went into mourning and would lash out at anyone who entered until a new Gaea was found. The only thing I didn't like at the time was that you could spend cash on their website for these skill tokens in game that helped you powerup your character real fast. I didn't like the idea of having to compete against people with infinite incomes.

Achaea's really gone downhill, though. There was a period where poo poo was getting WAY better, but then the administration proved, time and time again, they're completely incompetent and disconnected from the game. Combat's gotten dumbed down, world politics suck because all the good politicians got tired of the retarded admins and the current politicians are some of the dumbest people I've ever met, population is way down, etc.

It's a shame, cause the game has so much potential!

Gonna go ahead and through in a plug for the Mud client I help develop, Mudlet. It's a little rough around the edges compared to something like MUSHclient or zMUD/CMUD but the main thing it offers is fully integrated LUA scripting capability.. It's very *very* fast, to the tune of about 100 times faster than MUSHClient in all our internal speed tests(and it's even more ridiculous paired against CMUD or zMUD)

In any case, I'm currently in between games, but Iron Realms has a new MUD opening "soon" called Midkemia Online that I'm looking forward to.. http://forums.midkemiaonline.com . Hopefully we'll see some of you folks

Hahahaha you work with Vadi. Or maybe you are him, which is even funnier.

Honestly I'm not gonna bother with midkemia and anyone that does is delusional. All four IRE games except maybe lusternia are managed by complete morons, and IRE in general is just terrible at adminning games lately for whatever reason. Even then, I know some of the gods on Lusternia, and they're just as much complete morons as the gods on Achaea (god, don't get me started on Pentharian).

What about Aetolia - The Midnight Age? It seems very dark and pro griefing.

As far as I know the admins stopped caring about that game years ago and it's basically been dying a slow painful death. It may have changed, though!
