Ok, I have a great idea for a fast-paced RP. It would be about the Six Days War between Saudi Arabia (Saudi Arabia didnt actually do any fighting, but it funded Egypt), Isreal, Egypt, and Syria (and possibly Jordan, but im not too clear on its role in the war). It would also encompus the battles and aftermath of the war. The only problem is that im new to RP and I dont feel I could make a very good RP thread leader, so I made this thread to provide information about the war in question, so that others could start RP's about it. Heres the links:

Link one (http://www.jewishvirtuallibrary.org/jsource/History/1967toc.html) this website is at the jewish virtual library and has a wealth of articles and maps, although some of the maps are a bit hard to discern information from.

Link 2 (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Six-Day_War) This site is a good general overview of the war.

Telegram me or leave a post on here if you are interested. Unfortunatly, I have to get off of the computer for today, but I will be back on tomorrow.

In 1967, Israel attacked Jordan and Egypt becuase of intel that said it was about to get invaded itself (as usual). Israel won, of course, and took back the Gaza Strip and the provinces of Judea and Samaria (aka the "West Bank"), which had been stolen from Israel during its war of independence in 1949.

So Jordan played a fairly big role.

And I'd love to do an RP like this, though I'm sure you could find a better RPer to lead the thread.

I was thinking that instead of claiming countrys, we could claim divisons of troops or tanks, so that a lot of people can join
