Let me properly introduce myself. I am Sir Spud the Fourth, and I have been a potato for the longest time ever. I never denied it to be completely honest, but it is only recently that I embraced it. Now I have evolved from a simple couch potato to a fully grown royal potato. A dapper kawaii potato. And I dare say, knowing that you are a spud, makes life a lot easier. Just chill and let everyone else care about all their meaningless things because at the end of the day you'll know: chilling is the way to go.
I try to spend minimal effort on things that I don't care about, and procrastination might as well be my middle name. But that doesn't mean I ONLY rest. Sometimes a 'tato gotta do what a 'tato gotta do. And if that something happens to be things I like, then you cannot find anyone better than me. I am an omnipotent being capable of virtually any task to a limited degree, and I am not shy to admit it. I may not be the MOST AWESOMEST in a thing, but I am sure as hell MORE AWESOMEST than most people are at everything. But hey, I'm not here to brag, even if I am probabaly better at it than you
THE DREAMER:
All those nights laying in my couch, I thought about the cool shit that I cannot do. That I cannot see. But I pictured them in front of myself like they were real, and that infuraited me. Then I found the Guild, and I lived happily after. I have been on the site for 2 years now, and I have seen many RPs, and played with many people. I wish I have found the site earlier, but I am glad that I've even found it. Now all those fantasies can be written down and my mind can rest at ease at night, without being constantly troubled by ideas.
When I RP, I love myself some good Sci-Fi or Fantasy. But hey I am filthy casual, I can go for anything with an interesting setting. I don't trouble myself on small details if the plot is good, but if you get somwthing wrong you can expect me to tell you about it. Some even go as far as to think that I am angry or something, but I am too chill for that. If anything I'm more of the funny type, so you can expect me to try and write some shitty jokes or post memes I found on the internet. Anyways, you'll see what I mean when we RP together.
THE ARTIST:
Used to be something else here, but I'm happy to say that it's replaced because of a positive change. I now work as a full-time 3D artist in the animation industry, churning out shot after shot for some of your favorite game intros and trailers. Can't say anything about them before you even ask, and even though I'm still new to the industry I love it and I already know that this will be my passion for a long time. So hopefully in a few years I'll have a proud portfolio of animations that were done by yours truly that I can show off to all the lovely people of the guild.
THE LOVER OF STUFF:
Now I may have hobbies like the above mentioned, but there are some more things that I love in life. Here is a handy list of things you can always talk about with me:
Gaming: This one I am quite proud of, I'm a serious gamer with capital G. Not as much time for it nowadays, but still true.
Music: All kinds of electronic music, but I am a sucker for Queen and Powerwolf. Or Breakbot... anything music.
Anime: We all have an Otaku in us, but it's bigger for some people. For me it's just big enough.
WORDS OF WISDOM:
Be chill folks, getting fed up about stuff is a recipe for disaster. You gotta learn to be patient and let things go, or you'll end up a wrinkly old man/woman with only bad memories about life. Even if you do fuck-all every day, you can live a content life by taking things easy. With that said, as always, stay safe and stay classy.
Lol, yeah the concept is very interesting, but that I'll need approval from the GM relating to the elephants first, and then to the 'siege elephants'. I also wonder if you can actually put a catapult or ballista on elephants like that in real life. It's only a Persian sized elephant after all
Yeah, but we also have orcs riding wolves.
I think a little extra size couldn't possibly hurt. But you're right, the GM needs to approve first.
@Nariata I see you are also going to be copying Tyranny.
As a matter of fact, the whole RP seems to be a copy of Tyranny's setting. I would've liked to know if the original was absed on it, but I am afraid I cannot ask the man himself.
@Conscripts Would you be interested in the finest siege machinery mounted on your war elephants?
@seriousarmour I suggest you focus on the core infantry then with the phalanx, and maybe make some more types of these infantry divisions instead of dipping your fingers into every jar.
Seeing that the RP is about teamwork between the allied troops to defend agains the Empire, I suggest we use our time till Friday/Saturday to come up with a plan regarding the unit composition.
I was thinking about making a heavely support and artillery orionted division, something where 200 out of the 500 men are tasked with operating the siege machines that I would be bringing. And the rest would be archers to support everyone from the bac and keep the machines safe. I think I can easely cover this subject as I a far more experienced with siege machines than sword fighting.
And just as an observation, the small size of our groups mostly mean that they are probably all focused on certain things instead of branching out. 500 people focusing on infantry, archery, cavalry and siege will be heavely divided and hard to manage in a battle, plus their troops will be divided between many captains. A troop with around 80% type of a single type could be more easely controlled and perhaps lead by their own commander without being split up.
@TJByrum Could we possibly use our own ingenuenity to think up weapons that our soldiers could use? For example, I would like to play as a group who would be more of a supportive ranged role, using modified ballistas and throwing flaming ordenance on the enemy. Of course this would be highly TKing, but the destruction would be worth it.
Ps: I assume there is no gunpowder in this setting.
I like to think of myself as a man with refined taste (but that remauns to be seen), one who enjoys to meddle with concepts that are unorthodox. Sometimes I make an RP with a novel idea that never ends up working out due to my terrible OCs and lack of interest, and sometimes it works like a charm.
But this RP sounds very intriguing, as the concept of losing seems like one that isn't explored nearly enough. Dying a heroic death is worth more than living another cowardly day, and those who say that honor is an outdated ideal have no sense of pride or loyalty.
Mark me interested, and please notify me when the OOC is made. I will be sure to think up a CS idea for you by then, so just make sure that the RP will be a blast.
Good, thats what I like to hear. XCOM 2 is getting a new expansion with tasty new features, and I intend to spice the RP up as well. Apart from you getting those new ships, and hopefully capturing Iserlohn fortress, Chapter 3 will hold many more changes for you. But you'll have to work hard to get there, as I don't intend to just throw away all the secrets.
God, I wish I hadn't made a post already, because now is about time Pisq would contest with Onyeka to see who is the most infuriatung character in this RP. I mean Pisq is at least adorable and quite easely lovable, but @Utrax, you did a great job at making a character that I GENUINELY hate as a person. Now I need to step up my game to make Pisq irritating like Navi, or maybe even more.
