The year is 22XX. The Resource Wars are over. The European Commonwealth is over. The Great War is over. They first brought Europe first to its knees, then buried it six feet under, filling the grave with division and death.

European civilization is not just lucky to have survived, as is the case with American civilization. It survived only due to the ever increading irrelevance of a shattered Europe tearing itself to pieces years before the bombs fell, resulting in not quite enough bombs being dropped to cause extinction. Of course, people living in rural areas and in vaults (either international vault-tec or something else, left vague for now) helped.

Our tale takes place in the heart of Europe. What used to be proud Europeans have now forgot parts of their history altogether, seeking to follow different ideologies or looking up to ancient governments. For while survival is often just as hard here as it is in America, self-proclaimed empires and republics still exist, often submerging themselves in bloodbath.

Because war, war never changes.

Q&A Time!


Q: OwO What's this?
A: You play as a faction, whether that be an empire, a republic, a company, a city-state, etc. You roleplay though the eyes of individuals as well as manage your whole society.

Q: Will this have stats? I love/hate stats.
A: This will be semi-stats, the best way to describe it is the better the thing is, the more detail I need for what condition/how many you have. So on one hand you can say you have about x people and on average they have x equipment, and be a bit vague about that, but if you have 5 motorbikes, you'll need to flesh out their current condition, the fuel situation, armor, sidecars, and how it handles terrain.

Q: I've had a decent/mediocre/poor experience with you before. How do I know you won't screw this up?
A: This is a RP mainly for the players, by the players. I just help with some things, act like a ringleader at certain points.

Q: Are you copying the other fallout rp?
A: This specific rp is my idea, but did the other rp make me think of doing my idea right now? No, not really. I'm very slowly doing through a playthrough of fo3 where I punch super mutants and keep carrying too much weight before the game crashes.

Q: Where does this take place exactly?
A: Much of Europe, excluding some regions, like the far north, far east, and the balkans. Its a combination of inhospitable conditions, nonexistent infrastructure, and limiting the amount of life on the continent. Still, there are still a huge variety of people in it, and due to pre-war immigration or relocation to different vaults, there could be a Greek faction in Italy for example.

Q: Is there a discord?
A: https://discord.gg/BjcAH5W

I am interested as semi nomadic techno barbarians aping ancient cultures from eastern europe. Actually I feel that's thmain appeeal of playing as an East European faction.

I also wish there would be an Enclave expy with EU origins instead of USA. Should be amusing.
EDIT: Oops, GB only. Well, I managed to sneak a Hungarian expy to Yellowstone Fucking Park in a previous RP like this. Don't underestimate me.

I just lost a post I was writing. Basically: I'm going to expand this to be a lot of Europe, but limit the advancement of some region's because they were likely ruined before the bombs, and block off some regions, because they were likely either already reduced to ashes or are too far away or inhospitable like northern scandinavia or the balkans. Also important to keep a limited size because there are a limited amount of people alive.

But yes, Ill edit in the first post that we'll expand the map so you can get your barbarians.

As for an Enclave equivalent, the EC fell apart before the war, so it wouldn't have as many advantages as they would've expended everything trying to save itself. But they could have a lot going for them, especially post-war rebuilding.

Also, join the discord!

Tentative interest ^^ If I may suggest, however, geographically that is a vast area and fue to tech and story telling etc. Fallout has done better on a much more local level. Only because nations on a scale that is international in fallout are going to be pretty complex and vast.

@gowia To that I say that Fallout: New Vegas (especially the total size of its factions) also has a large scale. Also, I originally was going to have this focused on GB, but decided against it in the end, since a larger area could get more interest and GB could be too small-scale.

We're fleshing out more of the world currently, and have factions in Hungary and Germany (with room for other germanic factions). So feel free to stop by!
