And the Confederate? Is it compeltely NPC, and if so, who's going to RP its actions?

Calm down there buddy
I shal answer ure questions
1. Fluid Time
2. I meant that i have the generals as accurate but not the locations or troops amounts
3. Setup, movements and outcome will be different

I'll be George Meade :)

Ill take Albert S Johnson
Are all of his troops inside those two forts or what?

Yes OklaCarolina they are both in those forts

hey just checking in. g2g

PT Beaureguard plz, i want in..

OMG! I can't wait!! :D

I'd guessing the second list was the confederates right. I'm not buff on the US civil war but I'll have a stab. Can I take Thomas Jackson and his 25,000 please.

Just a few explination please.

What do those (place?) names after each Generals name mean? Will we need a map. And is Harrisonburg where I'm based?

I suppose that does mean where you're based. The names after the generals are the names of the people playing them. I'm playing as William Tecumseh Sherman.

Confederate!! yeeeah!!

The Union rules! Confederacy sucks!! :upyours:

Yeah ...well...uhh...Confederate yeeeah!!

LOL

Reallydrunk']Yeah ...well...uhh...Confederate yeeeah!!

LOL

Take that Confederacy! :upyours:

LOL

No need for that.

I'm only being conferderate to be conradictory....and to own slaves (Imagines cruel tortures....) But, yeah, is there a RP thread?

Too late :D

CLEAN UP ON AISLE FIVE
*Guides thread back onto topic

This should be a good one... When will we start?

Will we have artillery and cavalry as well? And if so, are those factored into the number of troops we have?//

for every 1000 soldiers, 2 artillery pieces
not sure on calvary although there are 2 pure calvary groups
well start when more people sign up

Excellent... 200 artillery pieces. ownage

I believe you mean pwnage. lol!

This is gonna be lots of fun. I'm looking forward to it. Good thinking Lexington! :D

I can't waaait ither! muahahaha

This is gonna be lots of fun. I'm looking forward to it. Good thinking Lexington! :D
why thank you

illl be me:D

Is Braxton Bragg still available. I'm fronm Atlanta so. *Shrugs* THough I'd prefer Joseph Johnson. Oh well. Can't have everything and Bragg did command for a little while.

I'll take Bragg, or Sterling Price please? Sorry about my mistake.

I think I got it first. By the way, what about General Warren in AUgusta, GA? THree major cities during that time. Atlanta as the railhead, Savannah as the port, and AUgusta as the factory center. 1/3rd of ammunition used by the confederacy came from the gunpowder mill there. Soooo I'll trade Bragg for General Warren in AUgusta, about 20,000 men and about that number more of militia and home guard units. Total 40,000, but only half of that is reliable.

i guess.. but you better git ure butt up to Tennessee when we start or ill be mutilated by Grant and Sherman

KNowing that position, I can most likely send some of my state troops with permission from the governor. But I will need my militia and about 5,000 regulars to keep Augusta. Unless you like not having any powder.

it shall be done

When is this going to start?

If someone doesn't start this I will. lol.

Whose the mod?

I'll take a Stab at General Ambrose Burnside

Edit: *Historically - Brigadier General Burnside retired after he was replaced as Commander of the Army of the North

Anyone know any sites which can give me a basic rundown on the Organization of Burnside's Ninth Corp..

Get in line, there are alot of people who'd like to stab him. SOrry bad joke. So what year are we starting this all on and how is time going to be put?

And wait wait wait. No Bragg would be in Atlanta. Warren is in Augusta. I'm sorry about the confusion, I just looked on page one and saw.

Quamarian, You took my man Buford lol. Anyways I'll Take Hancock. oooo, burnside, this is a chance to rewrite history. Nobody liked Burnside.

I think this should start before tjr war about a week to a month. So that the soldiers learn about the lines that are drawing. We can pretend to be friends and find we are turning away from each other.

Most positions are filled, BUT remember, you cant just join up and then not participate, so if you arent going to play, dont join up.

bump

Will you be adding Gettysburg as a Potential Hot spot...Dying to see if Longstreet & Pickett will repeat their ill fated Charge

I hope New-Lexington comes back on-line someday.

He hasn't yuet?

stay around. dont run. Its memorial weekend, check in monday or tuesday.

oorr

we can start one today.

Check in today and see if you want to start today.

I'm willing to begin today...

I don't support hijacking this from New-Lexington. All good things come to those who wait.

I guess....:(

i wasnt going to hijack, we were ready to start. I was just going to start it for him. but whatver. just make sure to check back

i wasnt going to hijack, we were ready to start. I was just going to start it for him. but whatver. just make sure to check back


What ever happens i support it. If we begin, awsome! If not, i'll wait patiently.

I ain't left yet.

hope this doesn't die

So do I...I need to read up about the ACW, espacally in the Virginia area.

Any links?

Maybe we should start without New-Lexington.

Maybe we should start without New-Lexington.


One idea is that we could start it, then give Lexington full control when he returns.....or if you guys still wanna wait, thats fine too.

That would make sense to me. Its taking a rather long time to get this started, and we haven't seen New-Lexington for quite some time.

So who wants to start?

ill do it. I brought it up, and youll have someone to blame.

here is the forum, i will put the time period, a small background and the list of people in the thread. Please try and confirm.

Thread-IC American Civil War(Closed RP)
------------------------------------------------------

NEVER MIND.

it should be New-Lexington, that makes it available for him to update and edit things that i dont know.

If he doesnt show in a couple days, then we can take it over.

So, is it up?

Ok cool...

no, i didnt make. I wil if it takes several days/ or in weeks, then we will take over and do it on our own.

Ok, sounds good :)

if someone can, contact the guy who set this up. Or we can just make our own.

Does anyone know how to contact him?

Where's General Robert E. Lee

That's the Union stats genius.

Lmao...

I'm getting pretty damn impatient for this to start... wtf New Lex?

I hope New-Lexington comes back on-line someday.
sorry yall lets git this show started

give us the link bud

I believe it's nex tto. Oh wait someone posted a bunch.

Is there an IC thread yet???

I wanna kick the Unions big blue behind!

yeah right, like you can beat the ole blue.

Yes, we get England and France to declare war and invade you. Easy as that.

maybe if there was someone rping for france and england i wouldn't object to that. but seeing as there isn't.. i will. france and england didnt enter the war because they had been stockpiling cotton... they didn't need the south for a while. also, they were getting cotton from egypt at that point.

Also that the Union made it a war also against slavery. So if England and France entered they would side with slavery and most European countries didn't support slavery.

France wasn't concerned with that, and France may have joined despite the slavery issue if they thought it would help with their Mexican war.

yeah right, like you can beat the ole blue.

Sure I can. In real life, i may love the United States, but in character, i'm gonna tear it apart.

;)

France wasn't concerned with that, and France may have joined despite the slavery issue if they thought it would help with their Mexican war.


England did assist a bit. Unless i'm mistaken, they helped the Confederacy blockade ports. Of course, i might be mistaken in that regard.

Yes, we get England and France to declare war and invade you. Easy as that.

I don't think that France would have asisted the South for Two reasons. One: England supported the south, France hates England, their not going to help the friend of their enemy. Two: They helped us win the Revolution, so i doubt they would have fought against the Union.

Well, this may be a little late, but I'd like to take Admiral Farragut if possible... this seems really cool.

I also think it's good we don't have foreign powers in the RP- in my experience, every Civil War RP has fallen apart because foreign powers aid the Confederacy, when IRL it wasn't very realistic.

sukaida, create the thread, put a short summary of whats going on. Also, put player lists at the top. This rp will start 2 weeks before the war begins.

ok?
