This has probably been done before but I'd like some RP experience: five upstart corporations (all of them in the same line of business) and we RP their growth and all the good things that go along with it.

Here's the catch; the corporations are run by a bunch of guerrillas/veterans/commandos so they're trying to take out all of their warrior urges in the marketplace instead of on the battlefield with corporate takeovers and such.

I got the idea from this from two events that happened in Gran Cienaga. One, the nation went on the gold standard recently, making it almost impossible to fund any wars or military operations in the near future. Two, the recent "Liberty Revolution" we had here was unusually bloody and left the entire generation unwilling to pick up arms again.

So what are all those soldiers supposed to do who want to fight and let out those animal urges but just can't? They start up businesses and wage price wars and corporate takeovers against other corporations. I'm not sure how feasible this is, but if anyone's interested please post here or TG me. There's only room for 4 other people at this time (unless the RP can be workable with more than that).

Nations signed up:
Gran Cienaga
Buechoria (Maybe?)
Draconis Federation

Looks interesting. I might get involved.

Does that include "Bloody Takovers" and "Corporation Espionage"? If so count this old war dog in. Yeah, kick the tires and light the fires.

Oh you know it, here in Gran Cienaga we play for keeps buddy.

Also, if anyone has any ideas for the products the companies produce please suggest them. Narcotics are on the verge of decriminalization here so that should supply opportunities for budding business. Plus it avoids having to deal with more boring businesses like, I don't know, interior decorating.
