[OOC] The Rise of Man (Fallout-like RP)

[Keyguyperson]

My claim. I'm not taking the full ten because of my nation's backstory, which probably makes me about as powerful as I would be with ten.

[Willy Vereb]

Did a tiny write up on my post-apocalyptic sci-fi Hussars. Unfortunately I can't give you any pics which would help to visualize them. Hopefully my description and the previous Winged hussar comparison would be sufficient.

Hussars

Hussars are highly decorated and respected troops of Great Hungary, instantly recognizable for their silver white armor with a pair of metallic wings. They are well-renowned for their speed and courage in battle, riding extensively modified military hoverbikes known as Wingbikes. Due to their tales of heroics and extravagant appearance the Hussars are also the most popular face of the military.

Wingbike

Name: Szárnysuhanó (Wingbike)
Type: Military Hoverbike
Propulsion: Laser-cooled electromagnetic hover unit, magnetojet engine
Powerplant: Oxygen Fuel Cells (enough for 6 hours of cruise)
Cruising Speed: 90 km/h
Top Speed: > 300 km/h
Armament: 4mm rapid-firing railgun (mounted at the front)
Optional Armament: Wing-mounted Missiles x 2

Heavily decorated yet aerodynamical hoverbike instantly recognizable as vehicle of choice for the Hussars. Its front is modified to look like the head of an eagle while the back has wings which both function as stabilizers and complete the vehicle's appearance as a mechanical bird of prey. As expected the Wingbike has little in the ways of protection and relies on its sheer speed to survive in battle.

Plasma Lance

Shaped akin to a medieval lance this is a deceptively versatile weapon carried by Hussars to battle. It has a compact electrothermal-chemical mechanism initiated by short-range laser power transmission from the Wingbike's power source to fire a compact rocket powered grenade at high speed. In terms of size the grenades are only a fraction of a modern RPG's size yet hold comparable power thanks to annie-induced ETC-plasma reactions. Furthermore the grenades are programmable between multiple modes ranging from HEAT grenades for anti-armor roles to high explosive, fragmentation or even thermobaric effects. The plasma lance is a versatile weapon of destruction, laying waste to anything within the Hussar's sight.

EDIT:
This may aid you for visualization:

Just imagine their appearance closer to Polish Winged Hussars while the bike has eagle motifs instead of looking like a mechanical horse.

Mildly interested in making a post apoc Mongol/Hunnic horde.
Just to fuck with @Willy Vereb's winged hussars

That said, can someone upload the map via tinypic? My comp dislike imgur with a fiery passion for some reason.

or

The closest and most complete one I could find thus far. Missing the nation positioned where Jerusalem would be and Keyguyperson's claims.

Which reminds me that my initial idea was to have literal horsemen companies with their most notable skill being able to shoot with their AK-47s back at their chasers while in retreat.
"Lord save us from the Kalashnikovs of the Hungarians."

@Willy Vereb

My idea is to have a horde that has absolutely no idea what the concept of "safety standards" and sometimes logic.
Don't get them wrong, they make good stuff its just that for some stuff they couldn't give less of a shit about.

Have plenty of land mines but no grenades? Just throw the land mines or put the land mines on very long sticks and poke the enemies with it.
Have a tank that could blow its crew up it you shoot it with a rifle? Good, it gives the crew the intensive to drive faster and not die.
Need a stealthy car? Color it neon hot pink because no one has even seen a hot neon pick jeep rolling around on the steps.

As you can see, flawless logic. Fucking flawless. I dare you to try and come up with something more tactically sound that m8

@Vault69

Its a bit big, but there are nations on the map who seem to have more territory but with less claims, so I'll allow it as long as you right in an explanation about why they are so large as a nation (Hyper Violent Cajuns ready to conquer the world would be fun)

Could I reserve a British factions please?

I don't think I can deal with RPing as Greece again...

Louisianan Empire

Legal Nation Name (Such As Ethiopian States of East Africa):
Empire Louisiane (Louisianian Empire)

What Areas Do You Control (Territories):
9Light Blue Area in the Lower US)


Flag or Banner (National and Political):


Political Party (What Party leads the Nation):
No "Party" Rules the Empire, it is led by the lone Emperor who has absolute power over the nation. His Birth name is Boudreaux Sage. but once he took the title of Emperor he changed it to Charlemagne Bonaparte Lesage

Type of Government (Self Explanatory):
Absolute Monarchy ruled by the Emperor, though he has a council elected by the population to advise him on some issues, he does not have to listen to them.

Date Out of Bunker:
N/A

Productions (What your nation Produces):
What is left of the Oil in the area, Grain, Armaments (Specifically leftover weapons from the Bosier City Airbase), Steal, Fish, and Other Meat from animals.

History of the Nation (Self Explanatory):
The Senatus Populusque Americanus stayed neutral during the War of Gods for a good while until the Caliphate took the Suez Canal in 2082, which the SPA used to typically bring its goods from New Orleans to the rest of the world. In response the SPA joined in support of the Ethiopian Empire, causing the Mexicans, who supported the Caliphate because of Oil, to bomb all of the capitals of the states except New Orleans, because they knew that the destruction of New Orleans would make the Mississippi River relatively useless.

In Response the SPA began nuking the Mexican Empire. By October the Mexican Empire fell into complete Anarchy, and by early November so had the SPA, who had suffered a lot of population loss because of a lot of them migrating to the UTA and the whole mass destruction of multiple large cities in the Empire. While the SPA government fell into Anarchy a lot of tribes stayed above ground, one of these including the tribe of Orleans, a Cajun group who began to set their capital at the New Super Dome, a giant stadium used for sporting events.

The Tribe of Orleans stayed relatively peaceful for the early history of the peoples. They eventually began to expand because of some more militaristic policies of the Tribal leaders. By 2093 they had taken a lot of the Mississippi Delta, beginning to trade with other tribes in Mississippi and Alabama. It continued like this until 2125, when the Bosier Tribe began an invasion of the Tribe of Orleans. The Bosier tribe had managed to keep control of a lot of military power because of the Airbase in the city, but the Aircraft that the SPA had not moved out before the war where relatively primitive.

The Bosier tribe had taken over the Orleans tribe by 2127 and they forced them upwards towards the city of Alexandria, which is where they put majority of the other tribes to not hurt the conquering efforts. They stayed Oppressed until around 2185, when a man named Louis Sage started his speeches. He began a rebellion that divide the what was now known as the Bosier Empire. While the Empire was more advanced, the rebellion had support from the peoples of Mississippi and Alabama, who joined in the rebellion to try and take out the violent Bosier peoples. The rebellion itself took years, but by 2235 they had surrounded the Bosier city area. It seemed to be going great until Louis himself was killed in battle. The populace decided that the next leader should be his son Boudreaux, who while young, was trained by Louis to bring the Empire to greatness.

Boudreaux began marching his armies against the capital of the Empire, and they began burning down the military base to destroy the armaments of the oppressors. Without their superior aircraft the Bosier Empire was forced to fight on the ground which ended up being what caused the fall of the Empire. The year was 2237 and Boudreaux took control of what was left. For a while he was a benevolent ruler, but that was until his wife was murdered by Bosier Rebels who still believed in the Empire that stood before him. Boudreaux's insanity started after that, and it just got worse.

In 2247 he turned his newly constructed Aircraft (A mix of Zeppelins and World War One-like Aircraft) at the nations of Mississippi, overpowering and conquering them by 2250. His next sight for expansion was the Alabama, who had been united at this point by Dickinson Saban. The Kingdom of Louisiana had fallen into more oppression then before, but Boudreaux had everything so surveyed by his Angels of Death (His Secret Police armed with Power Armor, if they think that you are plotting a revolution they kill you) that no one could argue. The Republic of Alabama put up a good fight, but they eventually where overtaken and destroyed in 2255, with Dickinson Saban being executed later that year.

In 2260 Boudreaux's insanity had begun calling on him to do his ancestors proud and saying that he was to have the wiseness of Charlemagne and the Power of Napoleon, causing him to change the name of his country to the Louisianian Empire and his overall name to Charlemagne Bonaparte Lesage, with Lesage being his former surname in the old French version.

His Empire itself now stands tall as a beacon of a once benevolent kingdom turning into an Empire of death and destruction with an insane leader at its head. Charlemagne dreams of not only uniting the former United States, but even reconquering the French lands in Europe.

Main Race (What is your State Race + Racial Demographics):
70% White American, divided into 30% Cajun (Louisianian) and 40% Non-Cajun
25% African American
5% Hispanic American

Main Religion (What is your State Religion + Religious Demographics):
50% Catholic
45% Protestant (African American Protestant and Baptist Specifically)
5% Atheist

Other:
Majority of the Louisianian Territory in the actual state of Louisiana was never nuked because of how irrelevant it was in the overall war effort. While some areas, such as the city of Baton Rouge, where destroyed, New Orleans and Shreveport where not, leaving the Bosier Airbase open.

@Iluvatar

Glad to see that you are interested in the sequel.

Hey, I've got a WIP for a Free Republic of Normandy that I'd like to be closely aligned with the potential English faction.

I've got a feeling that France may have been a major faction in the previous RP, and that I'll probably have to gut the history to make it resemble more closely to what really happened. Haven't had a chance to have a look yet though, I'm just hashing ideas.

Anyway, I've gone for a militarily retarded country that has procured genetically advanced crops. It has survived so far because the English intervened and stopped the rest of France from destroying it not long after the Normans emerged from their bunker.

After I've finished the history, it'll end with them being on similar tech to the England nation, and will be on the verge of an attempt to retake France (with English support!)

This is of course all subject to what you guys think, especially Iluvatar, but like I say I'm just throwing ideas down at the moment.

I'll have a look at the previous RP later tonight, when I have some time to sit down and properly absorb information. Just wanted to grab the territory more than anything ;)

La République gratuit de Normandie

(The Free Republic of Normandy)

---

What Areas Do You Control (Territories):

Normandy, North France

Political Party (What Party leads the Nation):

Le Parti de la Liberté (The Freedom Party)

Type of Government (Self Explanatory):

Under the leadership of the Freedom Party, the Free Republic of Normandy has established and evolved an extreme form of democracy, where key decision making is made by state-wide referendums and where laws are lax when it comes to restricting individual behavior. Drug use, gun ownership, the economy and other such areas are largely unregulated, with the Government acting as merely a societal and functionary framework.

Date Out of Bunker:

2260

Productions (What your nation Produces):

Normandy is blessed with rich agricultural lands, that have largely escaped the destruction of the War of Gods. Thus, it is often referred to as the "Bread Basket of Europe", being able to produce an abundance of food crops.

History of the Nation (Self Explanatory):

With the world on the brink of mutually assured destruction, the unity of France was fractured by a wide skew of politicians who sought to protect themselves from the inevitable. Civil unrest broke out across the nation, leading to large uprising against government forces, which ultimately led to the Fall of France before the bombs had even struck Paris.

In the chaos, the French President relinquished his power to the military. The commanders of France's armed forces realized that there could be no victory in a nuclear war, and instead focused their efforts on evacuating the population to all of the designated "Post-War Survival Centres" that were dotted along the country's extremities.

One such centre was located in Normandy, fifty miles south of Cherbourg. Approximately 45,000 civilians were successfully evacuated to the massive underground complex, but France was finally struck by a nuclear barrage, and the surface world became an inferno.

For 200 years, the survivors lived in relative safety. They turned their efforts towards engineering food sources that could withstand the scarred world that would great them, and shunned the idea of developing weapons as a waste of resources.

Hadn't the world seen enough carnage?

When the survivors left the bunker, after external scanners revealed the atmosphere to be habitable, they were proved bitterly wrong. France was overrun by a multitude of peoples, who had gotten to the surface earlier than them from the other bunkers across the country. Hostilities ensued, despite efforts at diplomacy; the Normandy faction had secured their demise however, after letting slip information about their advanced food crops. These crops became the treasure chest that the whole of France wanted, and war erupted.

Out numbered and lacking heavily in military hardware, the Normans (as they had taken to calling themselves), reached out to an established survivor colony in England, that they had detected via their bunker's long ranged transmitter.

@MetalLoverSince many people mentioned mutants, what kind of "fantastic" elements are allowed?
Even in Fallout the mutants are usually product of genetic experiments and the FEV virus.
Also didn't the nations used fusion nukes that are almost completely void of any fallout? Granted, a destruction of this scale I bet there are plenty of other hazards.
Just saying.
