Forums → Forum Games → The walls of Jerusalems (Historical RPG)

You are a man inside the walls. Outside camp the huge Roman army. In what first seem to be a swift and glorius victory, became an unstoppble defeat. The rebels, the citizens of Jerusalem and even foreign merchants are all trapped inside. Who are you?

The game is a siege survivel. Do your best to be in the best position when the romans assault the city. Because they will. Evantualy. The question is when, how, wher, and in what numbers. The history is yours to change.

Factions: beside the Romans, there are many factions, as thr rebels are not united:
Sedokim : The ruling class of the site. Belive in the writing rules of the bible, more liberal and open to other cultures. Richers. Belive in free will and abscens of after life punishment/gifts, aka heaven and hell. Leading the Militia abd the city guard of Jerusalem.

Perushim : The most of the population. Belive in "stories by the mouth" and unwritine rules. More conservatives. Belive almost blindly to there religius leaders, as they are the direct voice of god.

Essensens: Ascetic, very religios, monks like. Pecifist. Care for the weaks and to the poor. They dont work in any job that "corrupt the soul". Very pure.

Zealos (sicarii): the extremist. They are the ones who opened the rebelion. They fought in Galilhi. They fought in Tiberia. They fought all there way to Jerusalem. Some captured Forts in the south. You are in Jerusalem. Full of bitterness over the more liberal factions, the leader of jerusalem, for not helping enough.
A sub-group is the Sicarii. They are known for there Market diplomacy -
They knife you on the market. They are not affraid to kill other jews. Totaly hate the romans.

Abedian vulenteer: a solider from the jewish abesidan kingodme in asseyria.
Cable fighters. Free to modifications. Be whatever you want. Just remmember - you are foregine in a far away land.

Forigen merchant: merchant came from around the world to this region. From Parthians to Gauls. Rich. But be carefull - the population will be suspective.

Now, as i just recruit players and answer questions, feel free to suggest things.

Also, i prefer if the players will act as a group, so ill realy appreciate it if you try to stick together. Friends dont share the same ideas all the time and brave friendships exist.
