Offsite RP Ideas.

I've had several ideas festering in my head as of late, and i'm wondering if anyone would be intrested in them, Note the fact that i'm not very good at making forums, so someone else would have to make one.

Ok, To start:

World In Flames: Similar to the failed Character RP, which in turn knocked off world in conflict. This simulates a land war in europe, NATO is holding the line just east of the rhine, dug in at several large fortifications. Players will be generals in either the Warsaw Pact or NATO, with warsaw pact generals recieving loads more units than NATO, but with NATO having superior aircraft, tanks, and other equipment.

Battle for Britain: NOT RELATED TO THE AIR WAR, This simulates a feudal britain, with players taking control of a castle and the surrounding land, along with several linked villages.

Nuclear Sunrise: Post-Apocalyptic RP where players take control of villages, Towns and bands of people, trying to survive and control limited resources. Events happen as groups travel from place to place. Located in the ruined remains of western europe.

Future Shock: Players, commanding amphibious groups, are teleported back to the second World War, shortly before pearl harbor. Do you save history? Or change it?

These ideas all need expansion, so feel free to add comments and suggestions.


--IMPORTANT NOTICE--

People are voting for nuclear sunrise, so this will be changing dramatically! STEAL MY IDEAS QUICKLY YOU FOOLS!

The World in Flames idea is great, but it has been done so many times before. I say keep the whole "Soviets and Chinese against the West" theme but make it a year after WW2. That would at least add a twist to it.

Whee. You've just invented Hearts of Iron 2: The RP.

Sarcasm aside, I'd say the post-apocalyptic has the most potential.

If i rewind the time at all, it'd be more Codename panzers: cold war era. But i'd rather not rewind time at all.

Post Apocalyptic does have a ton of potential, it's different.

Nuclear Sunrise does have potential, but I like Battle for Britain too. No offence, but you've got to get a better name for it all the same.

Battle for Britain or Nuclear Sunrise is fine with me.

I mean name wise.

I still need someone to set up this forum, because i'd likely make a terrible one even if i got around to it. This is provided anyone actually wants to do this, and is serious about it.

Have you ever used Invision-layout forums? They're pretty user-friendly, as far as admin goes.

I'm also a procrastinator.

Yet another reason why.

Hey, so am I!

Okay, if we're making either Lords of Britain or what I vote to call 'Nuclear Dawn', I volunteer to be part of the admin/mod team. I have admin'd for a forum using the Invision template in the past.

I'm going with Nuclear sunrise at this point, everyone likes it. Dawn is also a nice name, but it's not as nostalgic as the WW3 mod for Warcraft 3

Weither i or someone else will make it is going to have to wait for more people.

It will need a new recruitment thread solely for Sunrise. Link to that thread here, if you make it.

We should probably get the forum ready before we launch it, though.

I'm not sure i'm really up to the challenge of running this thing. I'm like the executive producer, i think things up, but i basically do nothing.

An enviable position. You keep thinking, and I'll see if I can make it happen.

Here's a forum. Log in, and I'll put you on the admin list.
