Okay cool... Erm.... I still don't have a charger for my laptop, but fear not! I checked the tracker and hopefully if the little baby squid blesses me with its luck I will get my replacement in the next two or three days!

Now, before then, do guys want anything changed? I'm all for keeping things as is and just getting this rolling as soon as I possibly can, but this is the opportunity for suggestions.

I remember when Aristo had those NSFW signatures.... So many awkward explanations to my classmates that this was a regular forum not porn... Ahhh the old guild days. XD

So the choice is three rounds a minute if your soldiers are good or a gun no one can aim and which jams after several shots in this period due to its numerous defects as its just being introduced. Lovely.Given that rifles and muskets seem to be the better alternative here (Unless you aim to be up close to the enemy) probably time to put bright colonial uniforms back into my NS xD

If we're using civil war era rifles, then musket lines are probably going to be obsolete real fast. If I remember correctly, one of the big reason why civil war battles in America were so deadly was that the rifles they used were waaaaaaaay more accurate than the muskets, but as the saying goes, "fighting with today's weapons with yesterday's tactics" same reason why WWI was such a mess

I probably should have elaborated a bit more. I was referring to the , or something akin to it. I was hoping to have Hetteland pioneer the development of something like this in recent history, if no-one has any issue with that. It'd be a relatively widespread idea by now, I imagine, though not too common in the flesh.

Oh cool! I would think that this would definitely be a great transition weapon for our time, with rifled muskets widespread, but these early bolt actions taking hold. Hetteland could definitely be a world leader in this modern firearm, with similar ideas or actual designs being developed and used by other nations. I like the idea

It's sad to see one of the better people in the group bailing.Oh right, Kilo, is there any ETA on when a slightly less ridiculous Arkil NS will be up? I'd really love to see where you're going with them.

Ridiculous? My word! How dare you insult my flawlessly NS!

Joking aside. I will edit it once I get a new charger for laptop some time this week. I'll definitely remove the flying fortress and battle cruiser and probably edit the specs around and do more in depth history of each class development (I like my airships, can't ya tell?). Also some more minor stuff like the regular arsenal and things like that.

For now though, I'm stuck with my phone.

It might very well be the norm, but the option for needle guns is still there. I assume they'd be a bit more expensive than your average rifled musket, so you wouldn't be able to feasibly issue it to a couple million soldiers, but the option is there.

Sorry, but what's a needle gun? Google mostly just gave me halo results. XD

I can host and manage a Steampunk NRP if this fails. I'm a reliable GM.Probably would ease up a few tech-limits.

Hey Rare, (and everyone else for that matter) chill.

Skylar, Syrian, and me were just discussing options incase you were inactive for to long. Nobody is trying to kill your babies or anything.

As for the rest of you. We need to chill it with the dramanomics. Seriously, we're just here to have fun and enjoy rping right? So let's take a breather and give Rare some time. If it takes a lot longer, then oh well. We organize something and get started. Let's cool down for a bit.
