Note-The end of this RP will see the death of most of the player characters. Not going into detail on how.
Hello there everyone I’m Cpkeyes with an idea for a Sci-fi RP. This RP will focus on a war known as the Gaian-Ragon war with us playing as the elite special forces of the Ragon. The Imperial Commandos. The Imperial Commandos are the 2nd level of Juskar (Special) the 1st level being the Grenadiers and the 3rd level being the Kill-Teams (Who work for Imperial Intelligence). We will play as a team of Imperial Commandos during the war with the Gaians (Humans basically) from war start to the end of our story.
Our enemies-The Gaians are your average human race, through primitive in technology the Gaians are ferocious fighters. In the starting date of the RP (August 2nd 2230) the Gaian’s are fighting a losing war against the Ragon.
The starting setting-The first setting is the Battle of Mazi, the battle that proved to the Ragon that this war would not be an easy one. We are starting on the second week of the battle, with the Ragon offensive put on an halt by a heavily fortified and armed fort-Fort Mckenney. The first part of the RP will be taking place in this battle, specially taking out Fort Mckenney.
Traditions of the Imperial Commando’s.
Dragon Eyes-This is given to Commando’s who have performed beyond their call of duty. You will have to do a very brave act to get this.
Aaian-The Aaian is a half-skirt type thing supposedly worn by the Ragon warriors of old. It’s kind of like the Kama from star wars.
Four fire salute-A fire salute used during a funeral of a commando.
Prayer-Like most Imperial Units, the Commandos use their free time to pray to the savior of the Ragon-Illgoth.
Roles.
Commander-Me.
Second-in-command.
Gunner-You carry the heavy weapons such as a 85mm Rocket Launcher.
Pilot-You are in control of the gunship that transports the team.
Medic.
Riflemen.
Roles of the Imperial Commandos.
Raids on enemy camps.

Capturing enemy leaders.

Rescue operations for important personnel.

Destruction of enemy defenses (In battle, otherwise Saboteurs would do this).

Infiltration.

Recon behind enemy lines.

Supporting Imperial Ground Forces assaults.

Boarding of enemy vessels.
Training.
Hand-to-hand combat (Melee and unarmed)
Language (During the first few days of the war none of us will known enough Latia to convince the Gaian’s.)

Marksmanship.
Survival.
Grabbling and rappelling.
Wargames with other teams.


If needed, we will discuss things about the Imperial Commandos and whatever else is relevant.

I remember the last time you posted this, and it sounds like you have the same key story points decided on and you're just not saying as much about it this time. Why not leave that stuff up to the RP? It sounds almost more like you should be writing this as a story instead of playing it as an RP if you already know what you want to happen.

The thing is....I only have the ending sorta of planned and Fort Mckenney is the only real planned out plot points.

Everything use, well the player can decide.

I guess I'm just curious about why you would plan out the ending. I dunno, to me it feels like it cheapens it for the players- no matter what they do, how well or how poorly they play, the ending is already set in stone. All they need to do is hang around long enough for it to happen.

I don't mean to be a jerk or anything, I'm just curious.

I said to myself "Will people play only to see their characters die?".

I decided that the ending could be good if most of the characters died and make a discussion to help build on the Imperial Commandos.

I know your not trying to be a jerk, trust me I have had worse responses to stuff.

Is this Star Wars or not? I'm interested in Star Wars, if so then edit your opening post and clarify this please it was damn confusing.

EDIT pretty sure I know the answer, not interested

can there be an explosives expert?

I may be interested

I am interested. for second in command. If at all possible could i pm you about a few questions I have?

You may have caught my attention.

Sure.

So the Gaia are basically low-tech humans, but there's no info about the Ragon race, or the events leading to the war. I'd like to know more about those and the background in general.

Interested in piloting your mighty vessel, but I have the same concerns as Aristo.

Okay.

The Ragon are a red-skinned humanoid warrior race. They are very Imperialistic, which is why the war happened as before this the Gaian's only alien race they met was an extinct one and the races ruins. The Ragon are lead by a dynasty of emperors and empresses named the Goths (Ragon names are combined, so Ill=First name Goth=Last to form Illgoth) who have ruled the empire since it's founding by Illgoth in 2024. The Ragon have slaves and are the largest empire in the galaxy.

Anything else?

I might be a pilot. Still need more information on the ship I would be flying. And what that character does after that ship drops everyone off. Does he just fly around? Air support? Does he get out and shoot?

A stealth gunship armed with laser cannons and a whole lot of other stuff.

Ever watch Star Wars Clone Wars (2003)? If you watch the Hypori episode, chapter 20 I think, that's what you basically do. I'm may change that or not have the pilot be a required position.

Wait, so why are they fighting?

Shit...um....sorry if I destroyed your interest.I wasn't picking Ollum over you and was hoping you two had worked something over or will.

Aristo-Simple.

The Ragon see the Gaian's as another race to enslave and the Emperor told them too.

I highly doubt this will happen after our failed attempt at the War of Change RP back on the Oldguild. people say they are interested and then they aren't....

if this gets carried out to the IC thread, then I'm interested. not much to do anyways....

Aristo said

they're a warrior race, so I think they saw the Gaians as mere pests and decided to attack.

Interested as a rifleman.
