Anyways, should we start with 4 people? we could always have anyone who joins later be sent to the group as reinforcements... And does someone have a link to a good Picture of a suomus witch? I haven't been able to look all day, since we had to celebrate my birthday.
Im fine with starting! (If the guild stays up for more that two seconds XD)

I might have to light a fire under the guy who's drawing a character image for me, but I'm good with starting.
OP
Okay, I'll start working on the OOC then.

Strike Witches is one of my favorite anime. I'd love to join.
OP
You're more than welcome.
To resurrect my drunken Orussian tank witch or start afresh, that is the question.
OP
Whichever tickles your fancy the most. Wow, suddenly we have a lot of people. I'm wondering how the squad will look now.
Oh, and I like the CS from your RP Lost Cause, so I'll be borrowing it, if thats okay. Faster than writing one myself, and why fix what ain't broken?

OP
Today. I'm just thinking of a good scenario.
OP
I'm kinda stuck on what kind of scenario this should be... It has to be one that has plenty of action both on the ground and in the air, but we also need to be able to get some character Development within our Group... and ideas?

A combined arms scenario comes to my mind. Late in World War II, almost every American tank column had aerial support, guided by radio-equipped observers operating from the tanks. Maybe we can do the same with Strike and Tank Witches, in concert with conventional units, if we're pushing towards Karlsland in 1944.
I think there's lots of character development to be had simply by living on the battlefield. I've read a couple of war memoirs, and comparing the fresh recruits in basic training to the dull-eyed veterans in the later pages, naive optimism contrasting with brutal pragmatism, can be stunning.

So, something like a push to retake a town close to or inside the area controlled by the neuroi, and using that as a foothold?
Basing it off one of the smaller fronts would make for an interesting story; Finnish Winter War or the war in the Alps perhaps.
OP
I'm not too keen on a direct war scenario. I like the idea of moving towards the Neuroi, maybe to take out a hive. Since we'll face stronger and stronger resistance that way. Not that I couldn't see a war scenario Work, but it just isn't what I had in mind. Also, the Down time we have before reaching the neuroi controlled area gives our characters time to get to know each other... Huh, how about this: A combined Group that has been formed in response to a new hive, that we are then sent in to neutralize? Or something like that.
I reckon we'd be best off creating our own JSW since (I think) there are JSWs with mixed Land and Air witches in the canon. It would also help to have them based somewhere to allow for more character development between sorties; having them just pull up camp halfway to the Hive would feel a bit daft and wouldn't allow our pack of warrior lolis to relax as warrior lolis should.
OP
We could combine the two. First the JSW is formed to contain the hive, so we will stay at a baes nearby. And then, if we at some point feel like it, we can attack the hive.
Also, wouldn't JSF be closer then?

Sounds good to me -w-

As much as I love the witches, I'm also fond of the common soldier. Is it okay if my character is a platoon officer whose mother unit has the privilege of witch support?
OP
I don't see why not. Would be interesting to have a regular human around...
Also, I'm not sure where this should take place. So, lets have a few suggestions.
