Looking for a little new blood
First off Hi and thanks for at least opening this thread I am Rumi the head of the asylum and we have a few empty jackets.
As so often happens in Forum RP we've had a few hiccups and a mutiny…..they’re adrift now and I miss them.
Well that means we need additions to our troupe and that means you
Presently we are on an expedition of exploration and our unit making temporary camp in What was once the town of Arlington Oregon as we wait for members to heal so that we may set of once more our goal another 50 miles before we return to our home of Lasthope to ready for the War with the Portland Pirates.
Lasthope is for the Walking Dead World a large City of nearly 3,000 people in Lasthope but affiliations with nearby human enclaves meaning an overall population of 5,000+.
Lasthope is Built along the Shore of Bullrun Lake using Shipping containers, Cinder-block, Concrete, and Brick using Mill Creek and Taylor Creek as barriers to the Dead and the Living. It’s fortification comes complete with earthen revetments and only one gate with a military watch system on all walls and 12 reinforced watchtowers made of concrete and manned by at least 4 reserve troopers each (reserve troopers are the oldermen of Lasthope, 45-65 and those in critical manufacturing and technology)
It is Year 14 in our new world and we are just beginning to manage the manufacturing of gunpowder weaponry so guns and their use carefully controlled due to the shortages inherent from the loss of local resources and facilities. Lasthope views the use of firearms as an important feature of defense so only specially trained personnel are allowed to remove ammo and guns from the township.
Quote John Sanders: “As the story continues, we’re going to see a lot more transfer to more melee weapons,” Sanders said. “Bullets are a finite instrument … and we need to make sure that each character can only use so many and that they’re thinking about it.”
By moving factory facilities from other areas we are presently beginning to manufacture our own version of the Henry Lever Action Rifles but are still looking at perhaps 3 to 5 more years before we can arm our patrols. Now I am sure you’re salivating over this little fact but remember they use black powder which means that in mass attacks the black powder they use can blot out the battle field and expose positions of firing Troopers.
I mention this to support my reason for saying if your CS has a firearm then it is running very low on ammo (30 average and maybe 100 rounds if it’s like a 22 or 9mm the two most common caliber). I didn’t need to read that Mr. Sanders said the writers of WD were thinking this because if you ever watched the old school Mad Max you’ll remember he was always scrambling to have a few rounds for his guns; logic is a bitch.
Forget cars it’s either on foot or horse most people travel on land because all the fossil fuels have gone bad after exceeding their self dates and even Bio diesel is a pipe dream; where do you get all that veggie oil from?
There are no more Army Rangers in their Prime the youngest of them perhaps in their mid 30s and Lasthope saw early the loss such trained men would be in a world where men wear the skins of men over the hearts of beasts. Oh I also feel it necessary to add that the Elite soldier types were also the ones who suffered the greatest attrition rates as they were the risk takers over the years; it is a sad fact supported that the most common state of the receivers of medals is Posthumus.
Lasthope is a preserver of resources and the skills of those men and women in their population their greatest recycling effort.
Lasthope is a proud land that treasures Democracy and operates in a Socialist environment where necessities of life are evenly spread among the people and luxuries won in respect show by getting enough people at the monthly councils to vote you deserve them. No one goes hungry in Lasthope so long as there is food, every man has a home and a bed and everyone is expected to work or expect their neighbors to vote them out at the next meeting.
Well I could babble more about it all or answer questions….I choose to answer questions
OUTSIDERS
I am now opening up the story for Outsiders to join our group
