[quote=@The Mage]also, [@Foster] my only question would be how you'd get that to work. to me, it seems almost all roleplays where you play BotG it dies. That's one thing I'm worried about for my own thread....

That's a very recent trend, I assure you.
-However, most RPs I've tried to solo-GM (regardless of story) have died.

I've been trying to find some good dedicated co-GMs that know the general history, lore, and those random bits of info (like at the very least [url=http://www.tircollection.com/t9663-rsc-mle-1917-mle-1918]seen an Mle RSC 1917 field stripped and compared to an M1 Garand[/url], and view WW1 era automatics [i]in context[/I]* rather than for use as flavor-weapon for Call of Duty style "high-speed low-drag" yolo-fests).

*Context being, the French automatics were made by illiterate 16 year old girls since 75% of the male French population was sitting in the trenches. In short, they had to be so simple, you could field-strip it, look at the parts, and say to yourself: "Shit, I could [i]build[/i] this fucker on a good weekend." Same reason why the French elected to use strip-fed MGs rather than belts, it took about 3 seconds to stamp enough ammo-strips to hold a full can of ammo... time spent sewing a fabric belt for a Vickers or assembling a lewis-pan's spring-assemblies...

And someone who can find a reason why discussion on French armaments is *not* a tangent upon a tangent when discussing an RP to be set in Russia.
