If you were intersted, well, now it's open!

As I accidentally forgot to make a poll in the original thread, here it is.

Original Thread:
Would anybody be interested in... (http://forums2.jolt.co.uk/showthread.php?t=389872)

yet again, no poll

It's there...

come on Tib!

I'm up for a Generals based Universe............


BTW did anybody see Kahta's banning of Toyota?

I did; and replied.
Reply back to me! :P

I saw close call between RA and Generals (Three factions are a must in my mind).

GDI, Nod, Forgotten :P

While I like all three, I don't know that much about the Tib Universe (I jumped in at RA.). Are the Forgotten a faction?

Yeah, they were rebels; mutant humans who were experimented on by NOD and forsaken by GDI. Eventually GDI started to help them; as Tratos, their leader, was one of three beings who could decipher the Tacitus.

The others being Cabal/Kain

Yes, I remeber that.........Tiberian Sun was nice, but it was really slow.........

I go for RA2 of cource. How would we organize the Prism and tesla technology? Along with all the mind controlling tech?

Well, time travel, mind control, etc could get very god moddy unless properly handled

Yes, that would be a big problem...I think that we might end up creating a list of tech that won't be accepted, but that takes quite a bit of the fun out of it...

I get the feeling that problems like this might bury this whole idea...

Well time travel was basically a teleport method nothing more, but with "delay" where units where vunerable, if we keep it at that not godmod (along with limited number to be transported).

hmm, true. I have a question though:
Is prism technology actualy feasble. I have thoguth about it for a long time and have not really come up with a good solid answer.

Couldn't we find ways to fit all three genres into the world. It should be an open CnC world :P

Tiberium Universe was the greatest. All hail the Ion Cannon. >=D

Well, you would have to specify what tech you are using. I mean I have only played RA2 and Generals so I am long on Tiberian.

Couldn't we find ways to fit all three genres into the world. It should be an open CnC world :P

There's an idea. But I think that the Generals armies would be buried alive. And here, there's no micro to save you... :p

-I just thought it was a really more powerful laser.

-It would be chaotic to do all at once, but it could work.

lol; I call Tib Sun tech, and Nod :D
I love Nod...I want my own ickle Cabal!

I'd say Generals, simply because it would be nice to have a plotline behind the fancy explosions. The whole idea here is good though, since having two to three factions means that there won't be all of these random alliances, and it could lead to spectacular battles. Generals' tech would be easiest to manage.

hmm, true. I have a question though:

They never really did explain how that worked...Only Tesla Coils seemed the slightest bit feasible. How the whole beam was generated in the first place, I don't know, let alone how they fired into each other and concentrated their fire.

Generals had a plotline? I must have blinked and missed it ;)

What I mean is that we could make a plotline for it, since I don't like how the game doesn't have one. The others have every thing pretty rigidly set up.

you can say that again

(Couldn't resist)

This is all part of the reason that I had also thrown the possibilty that this could all end up being a simple RP, where the game story line would be followed.

However, I really hope that's not how it'll end up. A new CnC Earth would be FAR more intersting.

Yeah, especially since Zero Hour's ending sucked. C'mon, China being on top? Where is Westwood's patriotism, dammit?

Lol, don't blame Westwood, they were already gone when ZH came out. It's that monster EA...

Bump!

I played all of 'em, Generals had a crappy story, but I had the most fun with it, RA2 was kickass, loved that game, but didn't play it as much. Tiberian had the badass-est sides and story, so I say Tiberian universe (all hail Kane!).

Kane lives in Death!

OK, if we do Tib, me and Chron will have to be Nod.

OK, if we do Tib, me and Chron will have to be Nod.

You both certainly have the enthusiasm for it...

hehehe; can I have aspects of Cabal? :P

hehehe; can I have aspects of Cabal? :P
You get Cabal and I'll get Slavic. Well, in Tiberian Sun, at least.

hehehe; can I have aspects of Cabal? :P

We'll have to see whether or not Tib is actually the one that'll be established.
I'll definately have to read up on the Tiberium Universe, or find myself utterly lost...

As anyone who finished the original Red Alert Soviet campaign knows, Kane still comes to power, the end movie sets ups C&C, so picking RA covers everything but generals.

Same here, but I will miss time travel and prism tech if we do go Tib (but the whole tiberium thing seems interesting).

I guess I won't be joinning. One C&C I never even tried.

As anyone who finished the original Red Alert Soviet campaign knows, Kane still comes to power, the end movie sets ups C&C, so picking RA covers everything but generals.

I've decided that the each game's respective endings will be left out, it does make everything a little too rigid. I don't believe anyone wants to go join an Earth where everyone's and everything's fate has already been decided.

Don't worry Truitt, found a story synopsis.

Bumpeth.

Need to wrap this up, poll ends in one day.

lol, na, I will just keep with ym current knowledge of prism and tesla tech with a hint off TOO MUCH sub warfare.

bump for more votes.

Hm, forums are pretty busy today...
...Bump.

Only 20 people have voted? Come on, that can't be right.

Bump.

Bump!

Bump!

OOC: I voted for RA2...I wanna be Russia (*surprise surprise!*) and charge into the US of A with all my uber zeppelins.

BUT, if we are doing Tib universe, I want to be a faction of Nod as well, anyone who says otherwise will be visited by cyborgs saying "Obey Cabal!" wielding miniguns.

I hope I made myself clear! :)

And by the way, I'm glad China won. Let me give you the following equation to show you how I feel.

China + USA = owned USA.

It's not the USA's fault, the Chinese can rape anyone they want, it's just that...well...they are China? Don't mess with 'em!

Wow, now tied, where all those votes come from...

When does this shiiizy end?

Tiberium Dawn > Tiberium Sun
and
Red Alert > Red Alert 2
:)
IMO Generals is not even a real CnC!!!!!

My nation has been Tiberium Dawn (Orignal 1995 game) based since summer 2003 when it was founded. Haven't been to the forums since the jolt move.....

When does this shiiizy end?

It's ended now actually. RA has won, so that's the one I'll be going with.

I've typed up some of what is to be the main page, and I'll post that in a bit, ask for some opinions, make changes accordingly and the like.

I only have one fear though...

There seems to be a lot of Anti-Earth sentiment flowing around, and I actually think that those who are against Earths will either flame it, or many people might simply not join...

meh; ah well. Wish we could incorporate Tib elements as well. I mean, RA and Tib fit together; Generals is just meh; its not real C&C, its a crappy EA substitute

Well that’s what I have so far, I’m wondering about whether I should keep the rule of only using units and tech from the RA universe


Well it could still end up that way. As someone said earlier, RA is meant to lead into Tib. So Tib elements may end up being slowly incorperated. Exactly when this'll happen will depend on how quickly people will stay with the RA thing with their RPs before they are satisfied, and decide to move into the Tib universe, so it's not exactly a loss.

Anyway, I feel that it kinda sucks, but while it's not a good excuse, I'm not finished...
The following is the main page so far. Feel free to comment, criticize.

Welcome to Earth CnC
This is an Earth loosely based on the Red Alert Universe. As the RA universe is was meant to lead into the Tiberium Universe, it will be incorporated in time, but I’d like people to try and use RA to it’s fullest before just jumping over it, and leaping for the battle mechs, and Mammoth tanks.

Welcome, commander, before you begin you campaign, there are a few simple guidelines and regulations that have been built into your battle control software that you should familiarize yourself with.

Guidelines and regulations:
-Only one nation may be claimed at a time.
-The Storyline of the game has not been carried over to this Earth. Once you start, you are free to choose your own path. (So if you choose the Soviets, that doesn’t mean you automatically, lose the war.)
-You can only use technology used in the RA Universe for now. If you choose a side to back, you will only be able to use technology, and vehicles from that side. (So, no Allied supporters using Soviet tech, or vise versa.)
-Your strength in this Earth will be based on the strength of the nation you have selected.
-The fate of the factions in this Earth is not the same as in the game.
-I know everyone would love to have Tanya backing them up in the field, but please, remember, there’s only one Tanya, (sadly…) and any other hero character, and it’ll have to be worked out where they is, and who gets to RP who. No one nation gets a hero, they’ll be acting as a sort of card that can be played in events, and military engagements. This rule is kinda iffy, so please ask questions about what to do if you’re unsure how to proceed.
-Please place either CnC Earth, or simply CnC in the title of any topic created related to this Earth.

Individual factions cannot actually be claimed, instead, one will choose a nation, and pick which faction to support. The Current factions there are to back are the Allies, and the Soviets only. Yuri, well, no, not yet.

The following nations are ones that must back the Allies:
-United States
-Britain
-France
-Korea *united in this Earth*
-Germany
-Greece

The following nations are ones that must back the Soviets:
-USSR/Soviet Union/United Socialist…you know the rest…
-Cuba
-Iraq
-Libya

Current claims:


Links to current RPs:

Well that’s what I have so far. I still have to include a map, and some other things, I know, so other than that. I’m wondering about whether I should keep the rule of only using units and tech from the RA universe. What do you think about this?

OOC: I seriously suggest we create an Invision board for this, it is a quick and reliable board that is perfect for these kind of RPs.

Also, I'd like to claim Britain, AKA The United Kingdom.

Oops, sorry, forgot to mention that claiming isn't actually open yet, sorry, should've mentioned that. I posted this here just for some opinions on changes, and such.

About an Invision board, I looked into that. I think that I'll actually go through with it today. Might be today.

OOC: Thanks for the warning and the Invision boards are a good idea.

One thing that I'd like to know, is, what did you mean with "...these kind of RPs." ?

Not too sure what you meant.
