Oi! You bunch, with the accepted character sheets; less "Wont my guys be cool when I some day, maybe this year, post" and more "proving it through super amazing posts!"

I am not double posting on account of you being easily distracted. Let's have ourselves a WAAAAAAAR!

BATTLE MECHANICS


The running focus of this Roleplay is to engage in full scale Warfare. The idea is not to win, or to lose, but to write out the stories that happen during the course of a battle. If you can write an epic battle that takes a month for the two of you to move forward a single day, we love it! That is what we are here for. The agony, the drama, the glory, the heroes, the savagery. We want everyone else in this Roleplay, and anyone who reads it, to be imagining themselves in the shoes of your soldiers, your people, your citizens, we want them lying awake staring at the ceiling as they try to sleep saying to themselves: "What the f**k did I just read and when is the next segment coming out!?"

In order to facilitate this, @Clocktowerechos and myself have decided to go with a very simple Battle Mechanic. It is as follows:

Player Agreed Outcome

This is preferable way of doing things. You intend to attack your neighbour and take their lands! Rawr! Well, first, because we don't actually have real life armies, you must PM the person you are attacking. The two of you can then decide how things are going to work out. Once you have decided on an outcome, let the battle commence, amaze us with your epic storyline and ultimate outcome.

You can fight skirmishes, battles, or even the whole war this way. If you are both happy with the plan, we will not prevent you from making it happen. (Unless its complete bullshit, then we'll have words)

Games Master Controlled Outcome

In the unlikely (Hopefully) situation where two players cannot agree on an outcome, or they would rather just "roll the dice" and see what happens we will do exactly that, and roll the dice. Using this Random Dice Generator we will decide the outcome of the skirmish, battle, or war, based on the following formula;

1-3 Blue wins
4-6 Red Wins

Difficult to grasp at first, but if I can wrap my head around it, anyone can. The dice roll will be the final say and not a negotiation. This is important for all players to realize. If you can't Roleplay your losses as well as you can your wins, you probably shouldn't be doing life in general, let alone Roleplaying.

If you don't like the mechanic please feel free to look elsewhere for a Roleplay to join. We want to keep it simple, and preferably have players sort it out amongst themselves as I do believe we are all adults, or near enough to.

Once you've got the roll back from a Games Master, please feel free to work it out amongst yourselves how the fight is going to go. If one person refuses to cooperate, they lose. Simple.

We're in this together so I hope we will see plenty of player generated awesomeness, or some excellent "Well screw you dice" moments and their outcome.

Beastmen and Orruks are savage creatures but what happens when you pit savage beasts against savage monsters?

@wxps350 Solid post! Just a reminder you have @Ophidian to your West at the moment so you can't just rampage in and conquer more than you have, or at all, without working it out with him.

*Ahem*

*Shuffles feet awkwardly*

My profile will be up tomorrow, so hopefully any disruption will be minimal.

If I can't get it up tomorrow, I'll withdraw. I'm not gonna hold up the RP because I happen to be slow.

(character sheets/nation sheets murder me timewise honestly)

I actually do my best work under pressure.

This is my way of motivating myself to finish.

It'll be done, no worries.

BATTLE MECHANICS

(snippy snip!)
Passive aggressive is rather unbecoming for this and you might want to reword those bits to avoid things happening you probably would never intend to. If I of all people caution you against this then there's probably more than minor vitriol is spread in your post.
Just a precaution.

Otherwise? I am fine with this idea of course! Basically you have 3 avenues to decide battles (though preferably just one). First via plain play-by-post roleplay, accounting for loses and properly resolving battles is down to the honor of the players and their common sense. If there's a dispute then GM can control this. And if there's further dispute you just roll a fuckin' dice and let the 50/50 chance decide it for them.
Sounds like a decent plan to me!
And yeah, I sure hope GM actions won't be required. NRP is a tightly knit community, at least compared to the other sections here, so we should all know how to play nice.

... Then again, military numbers and powers were the number one source of arguments here since Day 1. So let's hope that ugly dragon won't raise its head again. This is a roleplaying game, not a competition.
