Red Dawn meets Metro 2033 RP

[The Scotsman]

I'm interested

Great!

I could see getting into either of those ideas, though I'll confess here and now that I'm not particularly familiar with either of the fandoms you mentioned. On the other hand, I'm plenty familiar with the basic post-apocalyptic nuclear wasteland thing.

Metro 2033 is rather easy to pick up. That story is a nuclear war leads 40,000 Muscovioans down to live in the Moscow Metro. They face danger from extremists such as the Communists and fascists, as well as mutants from the radioactivity. Our's is similar, but we're a group of kids in Scotland in an old hidden part of town, and probably minus the Nazi's. Red Dawn is an old-ish film about Russians invading America and a group of kids resisting them. The Metro 2033 references to the post-apocalyptic scenario with mutants, and the Red Dawn references to the teenagers all needing to live together and their issues and what not. I guess Tomorrow, When The War Began could be used instead instead of Red Dawn for a media reference if that would help.

Anywho, you have the basic understanding, so you should be OK

I get the feeling that the title was more like shorthand for what he wrote in the description. I don't think you really have to be familiar with either work. Of course I'm not him, so I could be wrong.

Yeah, that's about right, but for people who are familiar with those media then they would get the gist of it from the title etc.

So a fallout vault oriented post-apocalyptic scenario, can't say I haven't been familiar with that for a decade. But yeah, humor aside this sounds like something that can be interesting, of course I'd sit and see where an OOC of world information and IC goes before deciding but you can say you have my curiosity.

Not really Fallout, no... A lot darker, grimier and claustrophobic than Fallout. Well, that's good anyway

Im new to this site, but not new to rping. But I'd be interested.

Excellent


5 people so far, another one or two and I'll fire up the OOC

[The Scotsman]

Bump.

[The Scotsman]

Should I just make the OOC and hope someone/people join from there?

[The15thSpycrab]

I'd like to join.

[The Scotsman]

Great, will start the OOC today

Can anybody think of a title? Maybe something quite poetic, but its up to you guys.

I don't see much of Metro 2033 in this, I don't really like the plots though. They don't sound that interesting to me, perhaps you could explain them a little more?

I simply said Metro 2033 because it was the closest media reference that I know of. I didn't say it was a Metro 2033 roleplay.

A group of kids (this is the Red Dawn reference) survive the nuclear apocalypse by hiding out underground. The part in italics is the Metro 2033 reference. I honestly don't know where you are getting confused...

I'll sign up. I absolutely loved Mary King's Close when I visited there some years ago. As for a title, I would suggest "As the Close Carries On." Not fabulous, but it's unique.

Hmm, I like it And thanks. Will get the OOC up tomorrow, as I have it started and I'm busy today.
