A school based both on land and on a standard school ship. Of above average pedigree than the norm but nowhere near being too pretentious and gaudy. A lot of positives, except it's missing something... For all it's sedate prestige, it lacks a senshado team. Not that it didn't have one. The last few batches of students just lost interest and for a few years the school ran without one. That is until it got restarted this year.

Aizu, Aurora
"The Cataphract"

Talented chef, history nerd, above average athletic ability and enough engineering prowess to keep anything running with a stick, a brick and some string... Perfect candidate to restart Olympian Girls Academy's long forgotten senshado team and club... At least the heads of the school think she is...

The last time the senshado team ran was over seven years ago, And the tanks the old members used eventually ended up as private property and the members left with the tanks they've grown attached to. Now devoid of tanks and with not a single member, the Academy's senshado operation practically disappeared.

"The heritage is there... Just need to find some more of my fellow young ladies who's got the talent, skills and most importantly, the interest in panzerfahren... Then we just have to worry about getting tanks for them as well... It'd be nice to find some laying around... If not maybe, just maybe some of the girls I find would be interested enough as I was to actually pay for the construction of their own tanks. Club budget ain't exactly stellar..." - Aurora~

"Adversity is the mother of progress. If I recall, even your tank is under-crewed, Is it not?" -Darjeeling~

"Yes it is... But hey, I work with what I can get..." -Aurora~

"Your resourcefulness will be a boon. Now would you care for some tea?" -Darjeeling~

"Yes please... I'll bring the cupcakes..." -Aurora~

And yes that does mean roleplayers are to represent and play not just one character but the entire crew of one team/tank.

Olympian Girls Academy will be fleshed out via players with whatever they think of that would be appropriate to have in such an establishment. Obviously this would reflect on the characters and teams backgrounds as well.

Tank battles will be handled, kept track of and displayed via screenshots of my Men of War Assault Squad 2's editor mode.

A preview of what can be done with the setup...

Tallied the skins I have for the sizable variety of tanks... So I've got the entire Oorai team, Saunders, St. Gloriana, Kurumuromine, Chihatan, Anzio, Pravda, and of course Keizoku.

Aside from those If I can get a dds editor going I could get Our tanks custom skins...

As to tank variety... Got loads... Could model anything from a Carro Veloce 33 tankette to the MAUS.

okay I was interested because I recently rewatched the anime. with the way you want to handle the tank combat you just made it better.

@Jinxlynx

Currently trying to figure out if it's worth it to use AI scripting and actually get this "animated"... And need a dds viewer/editor for a custom school logo/skin.

Also how else does one handle tank combat? I literally cannot think of how one does that in text form...

This map's gonna be a fine setting for a match...

Specifically this bit of it...

All the "heavy" vehicles that pass the Senshado rules without warranting a case by case study... There's some odd cases that I simply don't have the models to recreate.

Oh hey, I like this stuff. I'm up for it. Won't be my first GuP stint.

@Massasauga

Looking back at this after a month, still need more players though, seems GuP is a niche subject here...

ill be interested

@Suku

Makes three... now need two more...
