This RPG will proabably be different than others in a way. Most RPGs, you give them a "card" which contains your name, age, skills, weapons etc. Then, the host of the RPG will give you options on what your character will do. TBH, i think thats boring and more work for the host.
What im going to do is allow the players to have freedom. Instead of options, you, the player, can decide what your character will do. Well, if you follow the rules.
THE RULES
1. No god-modding! Try to make this realistic as possible. Ex. [Insert Character Here] kills 37 people with his thompson without getting hit once. *Cough* Bull**** *Cough* BTW, no instant kills either (if your fighting against another player on the opposite army). Punishment: First time is a warning. Two times will get you suspended for X amount of time. Three times is a auto ban (killed).
2. No spamming, trolling, flaming, etc. Please do not double post. If you do, the second post will not be counted. Punishment: Spam for the first time you get a warning. Second time and all the other times is suspension. BTW, TROLLING, FLAMING, ETC. IS NOT TOLERATED!!! Do it once and your gone.
3. If you want to talk about something that is out of the RPG, talk OOC (Out of Character). Ex. OOC: [Insert gibberish here]. This will avoid confusion among other players.
4. You are responsible for your character. This means that whatever foul play your character does, its your fault. And please, at least make your character get hurt sometimes. If i don't see any pain (bullet wounds, etc.) in your character for a long time, I will do it for you and I'll make sure you will not like it.
5. Exceptional grammar and spelling is needed. Since your controlling your character, everyone needs to understand you. If your from a foreign country and have broken English, just try your best. If you do it on purpose like this: "I are shooting Germans and i are teh winning," then I will bother you for the next 5 posts (your posts).
6. Permission to fight another player must be approved by ME and ME only.
BACKGROUND
According to historians, the Mayflower landed onto the "New World" on 1620. Since then, the British has been controlling their colony and pounding them with taxes. Now the Americans want independence and declared war on Britain. Now you will control your character on the American side, fighting with George Washington or the Royal British, with Sir William Howe. Now sign up and fight for either side for the American Revolutionary War!
APPLICATION
I will only hold 6 players on each army. The only ways spots can become open is if the player is banned (by me), killed (on their own purpose), or quited.
To sign up, I need your:
Character's Name Age Side Job (Soldier, Medic, Supplier, Artilleryman, Navalman, Cavalryman, Scout, Spy) To see info on each job, scroll down below Application. Primary Weapon (musket with bayonet, pistol, saber/sword) Secondary Weapon (Pistol, saber/sword) Description
JOBS
Soldier: Most people are just the plain 'ol soldier. It can equip any weapon and is always in the front lines. Nothing special about it really.
Medic: Some brave men go into the front lines to help their fellow wounded soldiers so they can get them back up on their feet and continue fighting. Some just stay back and hope the injured soldiers get back from the front lines. This job can only be equipped with a pistol. You automatically get a first aid kit.
Supplier: These people supply with ammunition and a extra first aid kit. If supplies are low, they will have to get to a nearby town to get more. Can equip all weapons.
Artilleryman: These people control cannons and artillery. They rely on the Scout for their coordinates so they can start bombarding. Can equip all weapons.
Navalman: Aboards wooden ships to conquer the high seas. They need to dock on land to get more supplies such as gunpowder, ammunition, etc. Can equip all weapons.
Cavalryman: Rides a horse and is the probably the fastest transportation next to ships. It is easier to capture opposing soldiers too. Can only equip a pistol and a saber/sword.
Scout: The scout goes around enemy armys or camps to get valuable information. Artillerymen rely on scouts to get coordinates so they can start bombarding the targeted location. Can only equip a pistol.
Spy: Spies get into enemy disguises and gather more valuable information from the inside. They can also assassinate important people like generals, etc. Can only equip a small dagger.
PROGRESSING THROUGH TIME
After every 15 pages, the war will be won by the team in historical matters. Meaning after 15 pages, the Revolutionary War will be over and I will use my magical time elapsing powers to catapult us to the Mexican War. And then after those 15 pages, the war will be won and then i will catapult us to the Civil War and so on. Also, if your on the side that lost the war, there will be no setbacks, disadvantages, or anything. Here is a list of the war that we will be progressing through in this RPG.
Revolutionary War Mexican War Civil War Spanish-American War World War I World War II Korean War Vietnam War Iraq and Afghanistan War (plausible) (other wars i will make up if this RPG lives)
Also after every war, you get to choose whether if you want to stay in the RPG or leave. If you choose to stay, then you have the ability to choose a different side. Almost every war there will be technological achievements meaning new weapons, vehicles, etc. END
Well, that just probably all i could give you right now. Just remember to use your imagination, dialouge, etc. But most of all, have fun. If you have questions, feel free to ask. Applications are now accepted... NOW!
Note: This is my first RPG so cut me some slack >.>
Yes, i know it's a little long, but i have to do this so i can keep control considering that i letting everyone's imagination run wild and make this as smooth as possible.
