Run Through The Jungle: A Vietnam War Anthology [INTREST CHECK]

[Festive]

I am looking for a small group of people who may be interested in a Vietnam War era RPG. To preface, it will be an anthology-based RPG. Instead of one linear story following a set cast of characters, there will be several lightly connected stories with a rotating cast of characters. This means we will explore different events, battles, and operations that occurred during the Vietnam War or were created by the group, from the eyes of different characters in each new plotline. The story will hopefully span from 65' to 75', allowing us an ample timeframe to explore whatever we may wish, I do not have a tentative first storyline planned, although I will set something in stone if there is traction, and if you have any ideas I'll be happy to have them thrown at me. I am not a master in the subject of the Vietnam War, and while I may find its history very interesting I am bound to make a few mistakes here or there, if you notice this please feel free to educate me on where I have gone wrong so I can course correct.

If you have any ideas or are interested in having your own run through the jungle, please let me know! And remember, mind the agent orange.

Subbed and interested. I instantly had flashbacks of Rising Storm 2 Vietnam and tunnel rating in that game.

That's about all I really know about the Vietnam War so I'd be along for the ride and learning myself.

This is interesting, I'll throw in a tag here. Are we sticking to the irl timeline and history?

@Smike

We will try to the IRL timeline/history as much as possible but I am open to having deviations in the history if y'all would like to go out on a homebrewed mission

This one hits hard! My interest is shown. T 0 T;

@Festive

For sure, just wanted to make sure before I started conceiving a character

[Theyra]

I am somewhat interested in this.

Roughly how many players/characters are we shooting for?

[BigPapaBelial]

*plays Run Through the Jungle on repeat until something comes up here*

So.anyone have any ideas for scenes they'd love to see?

I'm personally hoping for some tunnel rat escapades and a We were soldiers hell fight.

@Smike

Roughly the size of your typical army squad, so about 6ish people

@BigPapaBelial

I was think we could play a squad during Operation Starlite (one of the first major offensives by the US army)

Intersted in joining this rp; I have a character similar to Ron Kovic or Charle Sheen's character in Platoon. A character that gets more traumatized and fucked up during the course of the RP.

@Festive

I think Army squads at the time were about 10 people or so, but I imagine we could always fill out ranks with npcs.

@Eviledd1984

I think the idea is that we're going to be switching out characters per mission/arc

Mmm okay i can work with that.
