This is an incredible site for the ones who liked to play the last game I commended here. It is good not only in helping one with his adventures, but with jobs (there is a calaculator that defines the best job for you based on your current skills), clothes (where to buy the clothes you need, which clothes are the best for you) and a lot more. Enjoy :)
It started as a browser-based games blog, my hobby 10 years ago. It has a diverse amount of posts. Enjoy!

One negative point though: it wasn't completely translated into english. Most of the site is in spanish.
Site address: http://www.thelord.cl/
Free: Tottally free. No costs, no ads.
Time spent playing/day : one log-in of 20 minutes each day is more than enough.
Have fun ;)

Diplomacy on-line for free

In the free site I found, the map is Europe in the first world war. Can you rule the world?
Site address: http://www.phpdiplomacy.net/
Is it free? Totally free. The number of games one can play is based on the number of games one have won. It is a different system, and an excellent one, since it allows the game to be totally free.
Time spent playing: The time of the turns in the games vary. You can choose one that suits you well (the most common range is from 1 hour to 48 hours, as far as I can see)

RK: Level 4 and Level 5
Anyway, the level 4, so far, has not proved to be as good as level 1 or 2. As Anto has said in the forums, "it sucks". The previous levels provided new sources of incomes to players, and the game got new things with it. Level 4 has only provided something for older players to do, players that the administrators believed were in need of something to keep playing the game (and this old guys buy tokens ;) )
It may be something to keep the game economy working too, since in France - more than in other countries - there was an excess of money. The county fame was made to take out money from Counties - what broke some English ones :( - and the level 4 was made so older players counld burn their money. Simple as that.
If money is the only motive, it is said that the level 5 will allow players to choose an additional "way". Like, Army Way and State Way at the same time. If you have not loved level 4, at least it will allow you to go to level 5. Don't lose your hope: the luxury points are being coded (and the promotion will be based on it), so level 5 will be there one day.

Deep in Level 4 - Renaissance kingdoms
I. Reminder: Goals Level 3
The Renaissance Kingdoms are two routes to Level 3 of the way the state and the Army, and the path of the Church and Science.
In the first approach, the goal is to save as much as possible its skills in the community (producing the most points of States).
In the second route, the aim is to spread the real world ideas of Religion and Science (with the exception of sub-minor route of medicine, which is devoted a paragraph below). How going on from Level 3 to Level 4? It does not. It is called. Specifically, a certain percentage of the best Level 3 (considering each of the two channels separately) is called. You have no information on your "score" or on your likelihood of being called. You are ready to receive grace. I speak of efficient grace, no pardon effective. Or the opposite. Because there are two types of grace in life, after that ... yes, well, ok, osbb, continue.
II. Level 4: To be rich yes. But why?
At 4, your goal is to live in luxury, calm and voluptuousness (optional). You will need to grow, eat delicacies, travel, live with people in mind, build your mansion, hire servants. More prosaically, the level players will earn 4 points Luxury. One of the major improvements related to the level 4, that is now in production in the RK will be diversified and regionalized. It will produce olives here, cheese there. Or perfume, the andouillette, tapestries, ceramics, and many others. All that will change not only levels 1 and 2, but also international relations!
III. Preliminary Comments
Preliminary comments in the midst of a presentation, it may seem silly. And it is indeed. But have no fear of ridicule and continue.
1/Amounts in Luxury Items have not yet been completely calibrated. That is why we do not make them appear in this version of the rules
2 / It will take some time to the world of RR to manage the various resources produced. They will be added gradually.
3/ The transition from Level 3 to Level 4 will be done gradually. In order not to injure the players (and a contest will be held), we will wait for a non-negligible level 4 to activate all the features.
IV. How to earn points Luxury?
A. Build your mansion and engage in domestic
Building a hotel is a way to win many points Luxe - it is expensive. For this it is necessary to call on various trades, and pay fees and abusive. You will need to hire:
- For foundations: a number of workers lambda. Job offers are submitted to the council, anyone can apply
- For the frame: a number of carpenters (players level 2 or more with a carpenter's shop), you must also have wood stored in your hotel
- For masonry: masons. Masons are people like you and me, who studied masonry at the university. You should have stored the stone in your hotel
- For tapestries: Weavers. And you will have stored tapestries Once the hotel was built, you can hire maids, within the limit of two per day, which also earns you points Luxury.
The hiring occurs in two ways, the player's choice: either it makes an offer of employment at the town hall (as in the fields), or he proposes hiring a new home already the day before.
B. Eating a variety of products
The luxury is first consumption. To earn points Luxe, will be the best way to consume a number of products or luxurious. Most of these items are food, but not all. When you are level 4 (yes, I speak well of you behind your screen, poor wretch), you will be offered a "map of consumption". For a better name, no doubt, but in the meantime, as a picture is worth a thousand words: it looks like this(click in the image to enlarge it):
The idea is simple: if you eat all the items requested in the time you win a certain number of points Luxury. Otherwise, you do not win. Remember that most of its items will be produced in certain regions of Europe Realm: from Cheddar Sussex, Bulgarian yoghurt, meats Milan, etc.. The more you pass card consumption, these cards are becoming more complex.
C. Living in a prestigious County and patron of the arts
County will allow players to level 4 earn points Luxury every day, the sole condition that these players have an apartment or hotel in the capital and live there (they do not, therefore, earn a point if they are travel). These points are earned Luxury:
• Depending on the prestige of the County
• Following the construction of some buildings by the County (not yet activated)
D. Knowledge, books
The possession of knowledge to 100% provides a number of points Luxury (once for all). Some books will earn points Luxury too.
E. Miscellaneous
been Comte / mayor / adviser will implement a number of points Luxury (once for all) (not on). "Bonus Lonely Planet ": Having been present in 50 different cities will Bonus Points Luxury (not activated - will not be retroactive once activated)
V. The new objects
Well, chuis the stuffing. It happens soon.
VI. Deployment, particularly if the sub-minor route of medicine, comments
