OOC Thread: RP Wargame Idea.

30-12-2003, 05:19
OK, I have had an idea for an RP, with about 4 people on each side (2 sides) Best time for this to take place would be almost any time Between 12PM and 2am EST This Wednesday. Basic idea, This would be a Sort of Wargame/Drill RP'd as a real war to sharpen a nations maritime and Air Force Control, Strategy and make up (a good chance for new nations/RPers to learn what its all about). heres the idea,
Setting: Some Tropical/Sub Tropical Area with lots of islands, South Pacific, Mid Pacific, Indian Ocean, Mediterranean
Background: The Small Area of islands Controlled by The 7th fleet, Part of a larger Chain. Which is controlled by 2 Basic Groups, One: Want some Social Freedoms, But few to no political ones. But mostly allie on there strong beliefs in capitalism. The Second, Also Very few to no Political freedom's, but more civil rights but the key difference being they are all Socialist/Comunist States. The 7th fleet plays the "Main role" if you will, Along with 3 Capitalist Allis's 4 others play the "Communist Side" The Capitalists mostly control the islands farther south in the large chain, Ware as the communists control the North. An Uneasy Stand off between the small nations takes place In-between the 2 Sides a 5 Mile "Buffer" Zone going Straight through 1 very mineral Rich Island(Dimonds,Urainum, Iron, Gems).

The Spark that lit the Keg: Setting for the "Flash Point" to all out war. The Small Capitalist Nations Decide to Rejoice with the possibilities of a new clean, Unlimited source of power Nuclear Fusion, They build a Research Facility on a small island about 20 miles from the "buffer zone" due to the Considerable distance (about 90miles) from largely Inhabited Islands The culmination's of time money and hard work they finally have a working Cold Fusion Reactor...The Incident, *it is dawn...the sun comes up over the Research Station Gold and Ruby rays of Sunlight Casting forth over the Research facility and its island.....Suddenly a loud Exlosion ....a Blinding White flash.....a small island with a population of about 1000 about 10 miles from the islands the reactor resided on, instantly Vaporized nothing left but a Deep Huge smoldering Crater both islands ....nothing more than black charred un-reconisable charred land similar to the surroundings of a volcano, the black sand Fused into glass in some places from the heat of the blast. Fusion Reactor was his by a Cruise Missile Fired from the North Side of the "Buffer zone" Probably a SLBM... The 7th fleet Radar Station Locally (before it was blasted into dust) Relaying back to Military HQ the small but unmistakable signature of a Submarine or ship launched Cruise missile. Let the War Begin.

To Farther Hammer into stone the ineffability of war, Almost As this incident happens, A 7th fleet Coast Guard Squadron on ASW Patrol Detects on Hydrophones a Submarine Trying to sneak into the Islands main harbor of Aries under a Merchant Ship, They order off The Merchant and Begin to Fire ASROC Torpedo's. A Fleet Defense Catamaran (near by) launches 2 Attack R-2007 Chariots, Equipped with Anti Submarine Depth bombs. The sub is no match and is Blasted into scrap. Later Diver Analysis of the reck reveals the sub did have onboard (though not clear of loaded or not) Nuclear Armed Cruise Missiles.
It is clear...it is now an all out war, Though small compared to the rest of the world...war is always big when it is on your door step.

OK that's the backround,The end of the Story line is not clear beyond the backround, but will be played out by which side wins in the RP. This is Designed to give nations a Chance to Sharpen their Maritime Warfare tactics, Strategy, And even ship deployment. And no nation participating will be bound to being Conquered/Destroyed or losing any actual forces/Equipment, The Date to start RPing Depends on when everyone is free and if anyone Sighs up. 2 Days from Today(monday) Being the Earlyest.

If you are intrusted Please Post here with what side you wish to Fight on, And with what time (Wednesday and beyond) that you are free.
Spots Open: Capitalist Nations 3 spots
Communist Nations: 4 Spots (one to Get the main communist role, Who's Island/Islands are closets to the fighting. We can do this RP with as little as 4 total people but I would like to try 8. if you have any Q's feel free to TG me. Also, No tech Beyond 2010-2020(NO space ships).

Very interesting... If this wargame gets off the ground, 5CN will like to test out its new Triumph of Destiny Class SSNs and its F-49F Rapier Interceptors...

OOC:
Well if others join then you are more than welcome :) The 7th fleet will be testing our new(first) Multi Role Fighter the SFF-49(Seventh Fleet Fighter=SFF) "Panther". And a new Carrier the Cassandra class battle Carriers, SFS: Cassandra SFS: Aries SFS: Athena , LOL also yes this is a very good place to test weapons without risk of real(well RP world) losses.

OOC: I'd like to, but it'll be at least a week before i have a fully functioning military navy and airforce. My ground forces are decent, but i'd like to buy more mech's and artillery weapons. My airforce is a mere exoskeleton and i have no navy so: Another time.

It's a good idea all around though.
30-12-2003, 05:59
OOC: Well as for the navy part also, I will have 3 Classes of ships on sale WED.
OK well now we have the Minimum of people (4) Though time Issues, As for the Functionality of your navy you could just fake it and test out tactics, as I have stated above this has no real in RP effects. Just a little idea to test new weapons, Home Military RPing skills. and to have fun!
Now that we have 4, Please everyone post times/Dates y, this WED plus that you are free (in Easter Standard time if you can please). I am free WED-2pm-2am
Thur-12pm-2am
Fri-1pm-11pm
Sat-1pm-11pm
Sun-1pm-am
Mon(1 week from Today)12-5:30 PM, 9PM-12AM
Tue-1pm-8pm, 10PM-2AM

30-12-2003, 19:46
Ok well first off BUMP everyone look

So now we have
2 Capitalist and 4 Communist/Socialist/Brutal Dictatorship Nations <_< Come on what better place to try out your nations new weapons? >_> Or see if that strategy you have been contemplating will work or go disastrously wrong.

Lol well all of RP is "Pretend" the basic idea of this...is sort of a Practice RP, With no Impact on your nations RP army. And in the RP (Simulation you could call it) but It will play out like a normal RP war, People will die, Ships will blow up, But only for the Porpoise of this RP. so if your One carrier is blasted to bits. Or your nation is over run with 100,000 Marines, on the whole RP forum, or the Military Archive you will not have to Log that carrier as gone, Or have someone else Ruling over you. But for the Porpoise of this RP that carrier would be Destroyed and your nation would be over run. So...Yea a war game.

Now GaalSien,Tayricht, Post what sides you want to be on (If you can go to the Communist / Iron Fist Dictatorship / Socialist side that would be good as seeing that side has 4 spots open, The Capitalist side only has 2) As well as times you all would be free.
