An Idea (or two) OOC Discussion.

I have had this idea for a few days, and thought I would share it, although its probably both a cliche, and been done before.

Its an RP that takes place on a far away continent, involving only two species at war. Cats, and Dogs, but not as they are now. See, this continent warps and changes them, giving them a more human form, while still retaining their Canine, or Feline nature.

Really all that would involve is a pair of human hands and arms on the front. We'll pretend the english we right is them barking and that they cannunderstand each other.

Anyways, it would be a full scale war to the finish involving only MT technology. and their are only two sides, so there would be one leader on both sides, plus Generals, tacticians and all that other good stuff.

Ideas, questions?

Ruler of the Dogs: Me of course. ********** Ruler of the Felines: Kazecistan

Alternativly, I thought about anouncing a Big Game Hunt on The Flying Contenent of Ri-an. And by Big game, I mean Rabbits the size of most houses. Think Peter Jackson's King Kong. You know how big all the creatures were there... and yes, there could be dinosaurs. You just never know what's on that continent. First prize would be either 50 mil, or a private craft of some sort.

once again, Ideas, Questions.

Idea 1: So essentially a war between Anthro'd cats/dogs(ie: Up-right, humanish hands, relatively intelligent, but still following general canine/feline behavior)?

Idea 2: MT, PMT or FT?

Idea one: pretty much.

Idea 2: Exactly. By that i mean that's a detail that would have to be hammered out later if enough people chose intrest in that course.

MT would present a great challenge, FT would be rather easy, unless the Game were more "Exotic" and PMT would probably be the best of both worlds.

Unless you were referring to the craft award, well, that remains to be seen, an MT nation with even a ST runabout would have an unfair adevantage that would be difficult to be rid of, similarly, what could an FT nation do with a next gen FT tank?

Hmmm....sort of like The Planet of the Apes.

Maybe you could call it The Planet of the Domesticated Pets....

I'm very much a cat person, and have considered adding Anthro'd cats to my FT Kazeci population. It'd be interesting, despite the relatively basic (comical) principals behind it.

Anyway, I might be interested, PMT or NFT if I were to join though. and I'd like an uber ship, capable of wiping out anything I wish in a single hit and totally invincible. Wank smank, and I'll wank anyone who says otherwise to death.

PMT, yes, I'm willing to go that far. Uber ship of Death, no. You can however, rule the Feline forces if you wish.

Rule cats? Don't you mean try to cajole cats to go where and do what you want, as cats aren't exactly the most controllable animals after all.

Hell yes! Love the cute furry empresses / emperors!

I'm intrested in ruling kitties (being a Kitty ruler).

And I want my uber ship of death, damnit!

Perhaps a map? We're assuming fortified postions and some sort of industry to support our efforts, correct?

I'm also willing to gove yo the numbers advantage, should I get the tech advantage. Or we can go even.

It's my first venture into PMT, so just remind kindly if I step too far.

That's alright, I've always been FT and magick, so this is newground for me too. That's why I'm hoping to get a few experienced advisors on both sides, ya know?

As to a map, well, my drawing is rather bad, but I can draw one in paint and post it in my photobucket. It'll be rather general, but we'll get the idea.

The word of the Kat! Hail! *raises fist into the air and shouts battle cry*

My paint abilities aren't much greater, but perhaps if you built your half of the continent (no huge geographical advantages, obviously) and I added mine onto it, we'd have a nice map. It only needs to give the gist anyway.

That's the entire continent, as I imagined it originally, but compression killed it. Got messenger or E-maiil to simply send you the image file?

Alright, but keep in mind that since both sides are knew at PMT, we could end up making some NOOBish assumptions and mistakes. All in all, it should be pretty funny. Especially since I'm going to play the agressor. I have it all figured out. It'll play into the nature of Cats and Dogs anyways. Few cats I have seen indeed, that will get up and chase a Dog. Many Dogs I have seen, that will get up and chase a cat.

You Fat Cats cannot stand against the might of the Lean, Muscular Dog!

We shall conquer you, before moving on to the species that claims to be our master, our friend. Yes, after we destroy the Felines, we shall destroy the Races of Man.

Oh yes, You may have a few wild felines as specialty trooops and the leader of your country. i'm doing the same. Other than thant, domesticated breeds only.

I think you'll find my kitties to be more than civil, if vengeful. Mine will also be more cat than person, on all fours, very furry, and smaller than a person (though not a housecat). It's up to the other cat RPers if they want to RP wild cats. What your wild muts do on the other hand....

I think we need to work out cat characters (RPer's positions).

Personally I'll be taking a Hitler roll, the national leader very involved in micromanigaging his troops (not the facist, genocidal, Second Anti-Christ, as some know him). I'll also have a few low level hero characters, directly on the battlefield.

And then when Kaz has to leave, because he said his time was short, his leader can die at the hands of the Dogs, providing yet another reason for cats to get together and kick my ass.

I'll be here the whole time, I just can't be on as long or as often as I used to and wish to. Nothing wrong with a tragic death or two, though, they make for good RP.

It's about 2 thousand miles across Australia, long ways, and over 1 thousend thin ways. maybe the scale should be adjusted, considering I can drive for over 60 miles and still be within my city (starting on the outside, of course).

Scale can be adjusted, yes.

No DT, no humans. Maybe at the end. This is between Cats, and Dogs. You can be a Dog, theirs 2 cats. and I need another dog player. Not that you can't be a cat, but, common, we hang out at the same club.
