Now, dudes from the Interest check will know that there is a lot about this RP and so you will be kind to me. People not from the Interest check will be mean and horridable. So you best go to the Interest check and check it out. Its right here http://roleplayerguild.com/showthrea...-Something-new
Now, this will remain for apps, questions, debates and death threats. Unless by popular vote I copy everything from the Interest check here. Also check the interest check often, I will update it periodically.
Name:
Age (your are not 18. Above 25 at the youngest) :
Role (Tactician merchant captain) :
Appearance:
Bio Optional for people that want to do that sort of thing:
Personality How you act in and off the battlefield, I will hand out starting morality based on personality. :
Loyalty (Can change, also isn't around at the start)
Ability:
Weapon: (Captains only. Spear Is good against cav but poor against sword, sword is good against spear and poor against cav and cav is good against sword but poor against spear. Cav have spears.)
side note on the ability. Think of what your role is and work it like that, a Tactician could call an ambush (Ill go into that later) an arrow volley (archers and stuff will be explained later) order a cavalry charge, a tactical retreat and all other tactics stuff. Captains will have a more physical effect with their abilities, such as raising their troops morale (explained later) or lowering the enemies. Reducing damage or increasing damage from an attack with good formation or simply outright killing a set number of troops in the platoon. Merchants won't have any battle field abilities but will affect market prices and such. Abilites can either be passive or active, actives do more immediate damage but have a set cooldown, passives do not do direct damage as often but have no cooldowns and are always active. Troops and your character will gain experiences with fights and ranks, but won't suddenly procure new weapons because they ranked up, that needs to be done by you. Also extreme losses to a division may bump them down a rank depending on the troops used to refill the ranks.
Filled in CS, so you know how to do it, will look like this.

I would like to know more about the Tactician, because if it is what I think it is, the character I have in mind would fit perfectly with it.
The more you learn, the more you know, the more you know, and the more you forget. The more you forget, the less you know. So why bother to learn?
Well the Tactician oversees a battle and uses his noggin to bring about victory. He doesn't take an active part in the battle but rather plays the battlefield as a person would play a game of chess. Opposed to the Captains abilities, the Tacticians are less instant, he can have ambushes and traps to push the battle in his advantage rather than Charges and arrow volleys of the Captain.
Let me know if I have everything right. You didn't really go over abilities much, so I just made one up that seemed fair.
Name: Cyrus Dorom
Age: 29
Role: Tactician
Appearance:
Bio: (May add a bio later.)
Personality: Cyrus does whatever it takes to win. Practicality over sentimentality. Victory over honor. His analytical mind is capable of taking in the battlefield and the flow of battle and react accordingly. His tactics can easily be considered ruthless, such sending a small group of men to their deaths to distract from the main force. He isn't above using his opponent's sense of honor against him, bringing civilians on the field as human shields, or disguising his own men as civilians so they can get close enough for a surprise attack. That being said, he loathes killing without reason and he sees children as innocent and not to be touched, if it can be helped. Cyrus does not take defeat well. If a battle is going poorly, he may begin to act rashly, giving out orders without much thought. However, he is a coward at heart, he covers himself up to avoid being recognized. If his life is in danger, he does not hesitate to retreat. He avoids conflict if at all possible, although he doesn't hesitate to send his men to do the fighting for him.
Loyalty: n/a
Ability: Ruthless Aggression - Upon a successful ambush or flanking maneuver, Cyrus gains +1 to attack rolls.
The more you learn, the more you know, the more you know, and the more you forget. The more you forget, the less you know. So why bother to learn?
The ability is good, its a bit more like a Captain's one but you can have it if you want.
I would do some stuff but I have a whole one person here. So I can't.
It's too bad, considering this was the only one I've been interested in for a while.
The more you learn, the more you know, the more you know, and the more you forget. The more you forget, the less you know. So why bother to learn?
Name: Alexander Iskadar
Age : 32
Role : Captain
Appearance:
Bio Optional: (might add if more people join)
Personality: Prefers to fight honorably and prefers not to strike down enemies that cannot defend themselves. In battle He Prefers to be on the front lines with his troops fighting as much as possible. In his eyes tacticians are almost as worthless as peasants in a war. Alexander finds retreating to be very cowardly and would rather fight to the last man unless the battle is beyond his capabilities of bringing it to favor him instead of his opponents. If Alexander considers someone he fought against a honorable match than he will 'spare' his life what ever is left of it at least. Disliking unfair advantages he tries to avoid any unfair ways to win as said before he prefers to fight honorably and that is a in his mind full on blood bath. Even though he prefers a blood bath he hates seeing his troops die around him if he sees that they weren't able to live a decent life full of war. Not caring too much for ranged troops he does find them to be very helpful in war so he will put up with them but the bulk of his army is preferred to be mainly infantry and Calvary. Besides that off the battle field he acts almost the same and will never back down from a challenge even if he odds arn't in his favor. He tries to treat everyone around him as he would his own troops.
Loyalty: n/a
Ability: Battle Cry Troops gain 30% morale boost
Weapon: Iron Sword
Armour: Iron Breastplate
(if i'm not mistaken weapons and Armour for troops and Captains work the same way? If anything is bad or wont work well tell me and i can adapt)

"We ruin the countries we govern and the people in our care. We slaughter our enemies and sacrifice all our allies. We’ll keep killing till there’s nothing left but to destroy ourselves. It will never be enough" -Alucard
"Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction. We didn't pass it to our children in the bloodstream. It must be fought for, protected, and handed on for them to do the same." -Ronald Reagan
Well, considering how much morale you could lose if your opponent rolls a 6, I would say 10% is to low, try 30%.
Also, that is something I am going to add, the Captain and his influence on the battle field.
