B-but, my Springfield is so perfect as is!


As you wish - though I personally prefer the Lee Enfield pattern rifles. :)

@Bazmund

Yup. I don't particularly like automatic weapons.

Is bolt action ok? Or single shot rifles?


Bolt action is perfectly alright, mate. Single shot is a bit boring. Prepare for ammo for your special subsonic rifle to be quite rare though.

@Bazmund

Bolt action is MUCH more stylish than automatic

About the ammo, yup. I know that's why ill have some other tricks up my sleeve.

@13org Let's not forget that when designed properly, bolt-action affords a high rate of fire too. Lee Enfield's Mad Minute anyone? Apparently, some German officers in WWI and WWII thought they were under machinegun fire when British rifles opened on them.

What is the value of crossbows/bows/swords and other basic weaponry? What about pistols and rifles?

@13900IpForThis Something like a heavy crossbow can be used for a variety of purposes - for example, it's easier to rig up a crossbow bolt to explode than it is a bullet - but generally speaking they've been replaced by guns for the most part. However, notably there are no suppressors for firearms, so if you wanted a rogueish assassin type, crossbows would probably be best.

Monster hunters also use crossbows, but they're not usually employed by the World court.

@13900IpForThis Right... that's way too mature, and doesn't quite fit the Iron Dominion, or the World Court. For one thing, the Iron Dominion does not tolerate challenges to their hegemony, and so Alfred would have been imprisoned long before he got that stage of wealth, and for a second thing, a big part of the reason that the Dominion's Working Classes are so ok with it is because their leaders don't permit criminals like that to exist in the first place. Human Trafficking, rape, the whole thing, is an automatic and instant death sentence in the Dominion, as well as the Red League.

Another thing is that your character kinda seems a bit too legendary, if you will. He's done too much with himself already - and for that matter, the World Court probably wouldn't employ him.

It IS however a good app overall. I can't quite accept it on account of the allusions to sexual assault, and general overmaturity, but I'd really like you to apply again, either with a modified app or a new one. Try to tone down your character's skills too if you don't mind.

So... hi. This caught my eye... and I'm here now. Are you still accepting characters, or no?

'Ello bud. I was told of this RP by another you've... shall we say drafted, into your game and I have to admit I'm SUPER curious and intrigued. If you'd be willing to give me a chance I'd be more than willing to put forth a good bit of effort into being awesome.

If I am to be accepted though I do have a question. With the Iron-dudes being the industry and science and the Oakhearts being magic and mysticism. The Red League is kind of a mix of the two right? So could it be possible to have a guy from the Red League mix a tad of science and magic together? Or is it just that the faction itself has the capabilities from the immigrants from the other two factions and while they work together they don't exactly mix in people.

@CollectorOfMyst Absolutely are. A few people have had to drop out before they even had their sheets up, so please do apply. All are welcome.

@Deos Morran That's a complex issue. When I was originally thinking them up, I saw them as a sort of analogue for three things - Industry and Science, Culture and History, and Politics and Ideology, for the Dominion, Sovereignty, and Red League respectively. The Red League hasn't necessarily been around long enough for their people to have mixed cultures entirely yet, but their state as a hard-left visionarist people makes them more accepting than most of change, and more responsive than most to new things. It is hardly impossible that the Red League will very soon bring forth a new breed of MagiTech sort of stuff - and so your character could be one of the people who will eventually bring this about - but the Heavens' Eyes are really antsy about controlling magic. The only reason they've not rounded up and interned all magical creatures is because they lack the military clout to engage the Sovereignty directly - as they would have to do to accomplish that.

Your character may be a magician, but they'll be a target for Heavens' Eyes agents.

@13org You, my friend, are a genius.

It was pretty dumb I tell you...

I've posted wrong once, then I erased it and posted again on the same freaking tab...

Oh, and hey Bazmund, I've made something about the rifle (cos putting the image of a VSS Vintorez wouldn't fit with the RP's technology levels.)

Sending it over my CSs by PM.

(PS: my character and Deos' will work together as bounty hunters/mercenaries, is it ok?)

Well my concept was... well I could link you the unfinished character if you wanna look him over.

Otherwise the concept I had was that he was speed based. Using magic to augment his speed to make his run and jump a lot better than others so that he can make use of his sowrds in a world of guns. SO not exactly MagiTech... but more like mixing magic to augment the use of tech versus augmenting tech directly.

@Bazmund Ah! the "Post-Apocalyptic," and "survival of the fittest tricked me!

I see though. The Iron Dominion is just a version of a capitalist country, with no organized crime allowed. Though I beg to differ on one part: Money talks bigger than any other law. One should be able to get away with most things with it, save for all the violence and blatant disregard of the law, shouldn't someone be able to con people, especially the less fortunate, as it happens today? Of course, being subtle is a huge part of it.

Also...yeah. I went a bit overboard. My intention was to forbid him from using guns, though I obviously forgot about it the moment I started making the guy. Here is another one though:
