Great RP idea

Hey this may have been done before but I just remembered this old movie War of The Worlds. It would be cool if we had it so that all the Earths were fighting against eachother. Some of them had enlisted there crime agencies to help. Some who had advanced technology even started to enlist aliens. Although it was against alien laws to help humans so they had the death penalitie if they returned to their home planet. Also we could have Elves,Gaints and Sorcerers and the other mythical stuff

So what do you think?

Um, isn't the 'Earth [number]' setup an II forum thing?

I don't remember if it is i guess I'd have to ask. I though earth 1 and earth 2 wern't a II forum thing they were so everybody could use them but I don't know about the other numbers. Besides that there arn't any flaws yet right?

Well, other than that the whole point of the different Earths is that they're, well, different RP universes and so most of them are pretty unlikely to go along with this. It's a nice idea, tho.

I guess I'll have one earth that found a way to bring in characters from a different dimension so it can have a couple of people from earth 2 but I guess it should really have most characters from Earth 1 and incorpirate my original idea. So different parts are killing eachother with the resources in there region (such as magicans,assasinins,material for making bombs etc.) that is located in there region. Now for the different region names. in fact I could use real regions if I got permission from them. Then everyone could play as themselves.

Do you have any objections to having this thread moved to II? You're not likely to get much response here.

Not at all I would love to get more responses.

Um... GMC, I think this would be in NS, because its not really modern-tech... From my understanding, II hold modern-tech and near-future RPs, while NS holds every other RPs... Since DV's idea is sort of a spinoff of War of Worlds, than its probably a future-tech and past-tech RP.

Seen plenty of futuretech in II in my time; the point is he wants the attention of the 'Earth [X]' group of roleplayers, and multi-Earths is a concept that as far as I'm aware isn't in the NS forum at all.

[edit] So moved.

Basically, it would require a multi-dimensional thing, where you're able to cross dimensions. Or it could be some God thought it would be funny to stick all of the Earths close together(relatively in an astronomic sense, of course)to see what would happen.

"Basically, it would require a multi-dimensional thing, where you're able to cross dimensions. Or it could be some God thought it would be funny to stick all of the Earths close together(relatively in an astronomic sense, of course)to see what would happen."

That would probably be a good idea then it wouldn't have to be a high technology story. It could be gods practical joke that started it. Even if it gets moved I still need some volunteer regions to use. Those regions could have special things like they could reserve there character. All though I'd make up 1-2 for people whos region didn't make it but still want to RP. I already know two region that will probably let me and need probably 1 more real region just so it dosn't get confusing. And then we'd create the two unreal regions. By real I mean they actually exist in NationStates.

Now that I think about I don't want it to get confusing and I think 5 regions is to much so just 3 regions with lots of people so that they are more powerful. Also the regions here might or might not be grouped by skill. Like one communist totally, one totally nice etc. It'd probably be funner if they wern't grouped but I don't know
