[OOC] The Elder Scrolls: Fruits of Contention - Chapter 1 (Completed)

[Dervish]

@Dervish

I'm still trying to figure out why the G36 is the futuristic bad guy gun tbph. Why not use the F2000? Shit looks like it should be loading plasma cells instead of metallic cartridges.

And yup! And the best part is the Tiger was completely irreplaceable.

"Fick dich, Hans! I thought you said der Soviets could not ram ze Tiger out of ze vay! Achtung panzer meinen arsch!"

(Also who the hell is He-Man?)

@Monochromatic Rainbow

Your resident co-GM, the Shaft, owns an FS2000. I'll be sure to pass on that you think he's an evil henchman while he coddles his beloved "tactical tuna". They actually use FN2000s and P90s in The Hunger Games as the authoritarian bad guy guns, so there is a precedence!

I think the reason they use the G36 a bunch is because it's a very imposing, utilitarian design that kind of goes well with all those near-future dystopian armours the kids are so fond of now adays. Plus, it's still a pretty recent design, so it doesn't have that immediate pop culture recognition AKs do, which usually brings to mind terrorists or Russians, or Russian terrorists, or when you want to have some scrappy, cheap resistance gun.

A lot of the modern futuristic looking guns are starting to make their ways in movies, I've caught the TAR-21 as a bad guy gun a few times, which is fine by me, I own one and will soon have a secret volcano lair, so I might as well look the part.

As for He-Man... well, he's a legend. Masters of the Universe was a 30 minute toy commercial cartoon from back in the 80s that existed alongside things like GI Joe, Transformers, and the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles.

Damn it Hans, always getting caught with you panzer down!

@gcold

FAMAS > Everything

Yes that's entirely MGS nostalgia speaking

No I don't care

God I love the FAMAS

@Frizan

Apparently, the FA MAS is a garbage pile of a gun that has terrible sights, ergonomics, and a trigger that's creepier than uncle Tom's cabin. I'm pretty sure the French have been planning on replacing it for eons now, which makes it baffling why it keeps showing up in modern FPS games when the thing is a relic from the 70s.

It doesn't help that it's an ugly, ugly gun.

@Dervish

Unfortunately don't own any boomsticks of my own yet, been looking into building an AR at some point though.

Also - secret volcano lairs are so... cliche. I would highly recommend a yacht with a biometrically encoded teleporter to a secret base buried inside Mars.

@Monochromatic Rainbow

Cliche, but that's exactly what I want. If it's tacky, nobody expects anyone to actually go through with it! Also, I've seen the Martian; nobody is going to Matt Damon me, nosir.

Not huge on ARs, shot the C7 in the army, cleaning them blows monkey chunks, so I'd say go with a piston AR. I also recommend not getting anything more for a gun than you absolutely need for it; everything adds weight, and some guys go overboard and just think that just because something has rail space, something should be there.

Only aftermarket accessories I have for my rifles are a reflex sight for my Tavor, and a rubber butt pad and bipod for my SKS.

@Dervish

Oh yeah, I know it's fairly crap, hence why I probably would only ever get one for wallhanger purposes. I like using it in games like Far Cry 4 though, despite its subpar stats.

@Frizan

I know they aren't imported Stateside, so the ones that are there are largely insanely expensive, and being automatics, require I think it's a class 3 license?

Better off just looking for an airsoft gun if you want a wall hanger, me thinks.

Found one from a 2012 auction that was being sold between 6.5k and 9k.

@Dervish

Yeah, is true. I can always just fire up MGS1 and go crazy with one of those puppies all over Shadow Moses anyway.

EDIT: Also holy cow almost 100 OOC pages

@Dervish

Oh absolutely a piston AR, DI is shit imho.

And I'm not a guy so I don't have any need to prove the size of my dick by having the most tacticool rifle~

I'd be fine with just the sight, a carry strap, a collapsing stock, and a foregrip. Boom. Done.

Maaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaybe a laser or flashlight if I felt the need.

What I really want is a replica of each and every Browning gun ever designed.

Plus an 1860 Henry.

[Dervish]

@Monochromatic Rainbow

Well, metaphorical e-peens are totally legit. Wag it proud!

That's also a shitload of Browning; I'd hate to think of exactly how many guns that is lol. I want one of those FG42 replicas and M1 carbine replicas. Lever actions are fun, but I find them a pain in the ass to load sometimes.

@Dervish

That's the next gun I want to get. I want to get a .45 revolver, don't know by whom, and a lever gun. Just because.

[Antediluvixen]

@Dervish

I'll pass on the e-dick, you're welcome to give it to someone else tho :P

AND YES I KNOW IT IS A SHITLOAD OF BROWNING

BROWNING IS AMAZING

>Makes a double stack polymer 1911, gets murdered in a crusade against the heresy

If we're talking replicas to have - I want a replica Maxim and a PTRS-41

[ButtsnBalls]

@Monochromatic Rainbow Did you read my latest PM? And eta on background?

@Hank Please respond in three days or you will no longer be controlling your character.

[Antediluvixen]

@gcold

Yes, I'll be editing it in just a bit. Had to think on what to keep and then I forgot.

*dashes into the thread*

I'm here, I'm here! My flu developed into bronchitis and then borderline pneumonia, which was less than pleasant. I'm recovering now.

@Hank

And he's back!

Thanks for letting me know, brother. I can't imagine what you went through, but I wish the best in a speedy recovery.

[Dervish]

Imma have to tag team Hank in the illness absence department, I have my surgery Monday and I don't know what recovery is going to be like, so after this collab, there won't be any new Do'Karthy goodness for a while.

Copy that. My hopes and prayers for the best outcome.

Edit: Fox, time for the grand finale.

[Antediluvixen]

I'll get up an intro post asap, currently in class and busy all around.

Worst case scenario I can always show up at the next area.

[ButtsnBalls]

Yo, background's first in line. Don't let posts budge.

[Antediluvixen]

@gcold

Alright then.
