hey, since the one year anniversary of my country is fast approaching i was thinking about doing an RP of the first battle of the empire, the battle that eliminated the wild tribes from the Imperials, if anyone thinks this is a good idea than by all means post, the setting is a plain in the middle of Jitano, called Retaye,

individual characers:
Jitanese Imperials
Isonis (Emperor) me
Brand (Prince) Aroarians
Taris (General/infantry) Nili
Nothik (General/archers) Pablicosta
Ustan (General/Horsemen)Baccardi

Wild Tribes
Heston (wild tribes head chief)
Geruf ( Nockos Tribe chief/berserkers)Dregruk
Shoztok ( Feltur Tribe chief/elephants[few,very few])Slutbum Wallah
Nilmos (Zistu Tribe Chief/sling men)

anyone interested?

When did this happen? My country may have been around then, and could have a role.

great, i'm looking for anyone who wants a medieval RP, tech level is more or less the opener to Fellowship of the rings, plate armour a little, lots of chainmail, swords, the like, the tribesmen would be bigger stronger, but a little dumber, they Imperials would be outnumbered, but with better tech,

To post a pic, find a link to the picture you want to use (It must be online, sadly.. you can't upload pics to the forum). Insert the link with at the start of it and at the end of it.

So it should look like,

Nili, you don't so much need to know anything about the country, just on how to RP, i'll sign you up for Taris right away, and there should be a good few more infantry than archers or cavalry, still waiting for tribesman numbers, and more tribesmen, if you knwo anyone who wants a good RP have them take a look

I should probably have more men than all you guys put together, shouldn't I?
Jitano
07-04-2004, 17:28
you should have a few more than you do, but not more than all of us put together, there are still the other two tribes to count,

The RP will probably begin on tuesday, as myself and one or two other RPers have expressed concern with that weekend, unless anyone has a problem with this
Dregruk
07-04-2004, 19:37
