Hope it's not too late to hop into this. I got all the sheets done. Let me know if anything needs changed.

Not at all.
I approve.

@rush99999 @Flooby Badoop @OppositionJ

Please post your Character Sheets (Only) to the Characters tab for ease of access, you can link to your organization post within your Character sheet.

I will be adding my own character and crew to this game, but don't see me as powerful because I am the GM. Kill me if you want to try, but otherwise, I'll be supporting the progression of the story. After I have made my CS and made the Intro post in the IC, everyone is welcome to make a post. If you're still unsure how to make a starting post, don't worry, I'll start us off so you guys can get a quick understanding.

See you all then!

@Heyitsjiwon

If you could complete your sheets, it'll be awesome to have you

Since I am the only GM, I allow the current members to judge my application. Should you see anything overpowered, think I missed something, or otherwise, please say so.

Something tells me the Judge and the Terrorsquid aren't going to get along. Also, why don't you want us putting our Organization Sheets in the Char tab?

Organization Sheets aren't anything to really approve, they are simply there for your use and customization. They do have a lot to do with the roleplay, but they aren't your application. I won't be upset if you put the Org sheet there.

Letting everyone know, as you know we had Thanksgiving but, Friday there was an emergency. Tomorrow (Saturday) the roleplay should starr.

Sorry about that, all is good now

I have made my first post, everyone. You do not need to follow my post to the letter, but I do need to know your location, and your mission. You don't have to make your mission immediately. If you want a discussion with your Officer, I will post A.S.A.P. so you can get along with your post. This isn't supposed to be turn based, as in if you wait too long other people would have made turns ahead of you. Don't worry, take your time, be patient, if you want to play it safe, just ask what your Officer sees on the shore and if they can, anything beyond, then make your decision. While you saw the OOC took days until the IC was started, the Officer and Advisor posts I will make should be just as immediate almost as you post, so you can carry a conversation. Ask your Officer anything and everything, I will give you all the information you ask.

So start with a location, and ask your Officers questions, or make a Mission. Rush the coast like D-day, or play it safe and find a proper place to land.

Heavily and densely packed Grids, like if they are extremely small or thin, assume they are wasteland (yellow/orange colored) or densely packed forest (green shaded)

ALSO you may go ahead and stylize your character sheets now. Add images, fonts, whatever. Also, we still have available positions for people to join. I won't close it until we have too many people.

You know, now that I think about it, this whole asking your officer thing seems a bit impractical. Wouldn't it be simpler to ask questions and receive answers OOC so we don't have to waste time sprucing up the questions and answers IC and then throw that OOC exchange into one player's post rather than stretch it across multiple posts?

Ask in whatever manner you want, put it all in the Mission portion and say you had a discussion with your Officer IC. I am putting everything IC so that the roleplay shows life, progress, and so OOC or PMs don't get bogged up.

Alrighty then. In any case I have three questions.

How long does the Terrorsquid have until he's keel hauled by his crew due to a lack of food and/or booty?

Are there any opportunities to gain food and/or booty nearby?

Exactly how many men constitutes the minimum required crew of a Galleon?

Depends on how you treat your crew. It won't be like a game, heh. Roleplay treating your crew well and they'll stay in line... for a lot longer than if you didn't.

The new world could possibly have berry bushes, you could send people out to hunt, raid native villages you find, steal from natives, take *their* wealth, take other peoples wealth, look for trade/supply ships in the area. Just pick a destination and decide how you want to start.

My post said "1/3" and "2/3" but that's just for roleplay. You have No Manpower, Minimum, Average, and Maximum. Doesn't matter if you put 2 people or 20, if you have Minimum, you have minimum.

From the googling I have done, English Galleons have ~900-1500, Race-Built versions (smaller, probably faster) had less than ~300.
French Galleons Have about ~1200.
Spanish Galleons Feel good around ~1000.

These are Combat Complement Predictions, and if you have this many people, you should make sure you can feed them.

Minimum crews for Galleons seems to be sustainable at 100 men and a little less.

You should see similar numbers for Carracks, if not less, due to them being classed as civilian ships more than combat vessels at this time in history, meaning the space for crew and bunks is now used for supplies and cargo more. However, because of their size, a similar complement is necessary for Minimum.

But I will not crunch these numbers. You need far less men to defend, than to assault. If you want to crunch numbers, go ahead, but I am only following roleplay predictions and the Manpower Levels I have stated

Hey there, good post. I have your Officers response of information ready mostly, I just need a little screen cap of where you are going. Just snip a part of the map and circle it so I know where you are. If you're afraid of others knowing where you are, metagaming is illegal and comes with an immediate kick. You're safe

....My alerts have failed me. Is there anything else I need to fill out/do?

Edit: Edited my character sheet to include the organization sheet as well.

I'm currently at the fire station, I'll review your application in a few hours. This is mostly the only time I am busy. Seeya then! Just make sure you have a fully filled out Character and Organization sheet. Images aren't required, but of course up to you. When I approve your character sheet, you can add an image to it in the Character thread.

To everyone, if you find a cool picture for a ship, you can add it to your post in the character tab or Organization sheet as well, in a spoiler.

Yes, my apologies. I was trying to get the post out in a timely manner and got caught up before I could finish the map portion.

Here is a close up of the general idea (very roughly drawn up):

I approve of your Application, please make sure the entire application is up-to-date (The Group Name is left N/A yet the Organization does, indeed, have a name). Post it in the Characters tab and you're ready to make a post in the roleplay!
