Hey, who wants to wage a very odd and unique war? Because I have a crazy idea for you. Make an army/nation in a future, war-torn world based off of a...BAND! That's right, a band. You know you want to fight for the honor of your favorite band. My band is Pink Floyd. Now, you know you want to join.

Iron Maiden.

excellent choice my friend. Now, I'll make more details. The war is in a wartorn future. Many nations have risen, based on bands. The technology is not overly future, now space wars, but you can make cool soldiers and technologies based on your band. I will start making Pink Floyd's now.

ah well, if you love The Floyd as much to steal the ability to RP as them from me ¬_¬ :P then maybe you'd be interested in joining the Holy Church of Floyd, it's a purely IC thing me and some other dudes made over time, i'll give you the NSWiki link.....

Anywho, since the Floyd have been taken in all greatness I might be tempted to choose Jefferson Airplane....

Hrm... Unsure whether to go with the Seatbelts or Machinae Supremacy. Definitely one of those.

What band would I choose but Metallica? I even have the Metal Militia Series hanging around, ready to kick ass and take names. Unless I chose Guns and Roses. Or Lynyrd, or Queen... Or Led(I could have norsemen.).

How about the Electric Light Orchestra. They even went on tour with a flying saucer as one of their stage props.

Then again, maybe ZZ Top, for the FX in thier videos...?

Well, I'd start the KISS army, but I think that's taken.

my computer wasn't working, sorry for not posting. Mini Miehm, Metallica sounds great. Acquicic, noone has KISS. Theao, it would be a standard war. You can make allies, enemies, and whatnot.

Anywho, here's my force!

Nation- Floydia
Capital- The Darkside of the Moon
Floydia rose from a group of revolutionaries who promised a bright future. owever, when the head revolutionary died, the group took a new turn. Now the nation is a massive warmachine. The infantry, or sheep as they are known by hgher ups, are known for attcking inmassive waves, relying on number. They carry an assault rifle and hammer grenades(grenades shapped like hammers). Also present on the field are the MH Hammer mechs. These mechs are operated by two men. They look like two legs with hammerheaded shapped pods o tops of them. One man dries the mech, the other man operates the cannon. In the skies, massive wareagles , metal eagle shaped planes, patrol the sky. Their capital, The Darkside of the Moon, is a massive futuristic city, surronded by The Wall, as it is known. The Wall is a massive defense structure that let's nothing in, and rarely anything out. The central building is known as the Prism, a giant glass triangle that, under certain conditions can fire a massive beam of energy.

You did not say if I was accepted or not, but I will post an introduction regardless:

Faction: Armenian Anti-System Anarchist Army, A.A.A.A.A.

Organization: 5xA (as it's also known) has no capital. It is a rebel army, always on move, wondering aimlessly all across the planet, fighting against all of those nations/armies/factions/cults that introduce some kind of a system, be it governmental, social, cultural, economical, whatever. Sometimes a voice of dissent rises up from their ranks, claiming that this policy is too "systematic" and therefore against their common principles. All this causes great confusion within the A.A.A.A.A, and when we add the constant suspicion and distrust between Tankianists (who referr to the vocalist Serj Tankian as "The Prophet") and Dolmayanians (who have strong faith in the secret messages from other worlds and parallel dimensions to be hidden in the drum-comps of John Dolmayan), not to even mention violent Malakianists and fierce Odadjianers, it becomes clear that 5xA isn't really too consistent or compact organisation (that word is banned, btw). Most of the time they however manage to turn their rage against other factions.

History: A.A.A.A.A came literally out of nowhere. No one has a clue where did these hordes of Armenians (or people who have Armenian blood running in their veins, or who atleast say so) come, from where did they get their weapons - a wide variety of them, mainly GPMG machineguns (around the idea of MG42), Kalashnikovs, Home Made Pulse Rifles, RPG's, Lazerblasters, Really Big and Incredibly Scary-Looking Pulse Rifles, sabers, battleaxes and rusty kitchen knives - but here they are nevertheless.

Strategies&Tactics/The Style: Troops of the 5xA are mostly motorized infantry, riding a wide variety of wheeled and tracked vehicles, of both military and civilian origin. They all are strongly modified and made to look original (and scary (which usually means laughable)).
Theie "leaders", by which I mean those who enjoy atleast of some degree of respect and and are obeyed as long as they are wise enough to come up with orders that their troops find reasonable, rely on speed and fanatism of their troops mainly, instead of crushing firepower or hightech. Since they lack both of them.

NOTE: How can you know that you've met A.A.A.A.A's forces? From the music, naturally. They play SOAD all the time, non-stop, 24/7 around the clock with full volume, and have more Credits (cash) tied up into their subwoofers than weapons or vehicles. They also try to look like their beloved idols, by dressing and cutting their hair in ways members of System Of A Down are known to have done it.
