Anyone for a Strike Witches based RP?

I don't see why not. Would be interesting to have a regular human around...
Also, I'm not sure where this should take place. So, lets have a few suggestions.

Okay, sorry for posting the same thing, the guild was having problems it seems...

[SillyGoy]

More than the usual, too. Site's down every 10 minutes.

[30 Dec 2014] I'm currently rewriting the core of the Guild to address its stability issues.
- The original code is now one year old, so I'm addressing performance issues
I was unable to foresee back then.
- I'm going to be open-sourcing the new server so that any web developers in
the community will be able to submit bug fixes and patches once it's ready.
(Of course, user data will be secured on the private database that nobody
has access to)
- The new stack is Node.js + Postgres (SQL) to make the codebase friendlier
for community contributions.
- I will begin testing it on a development server soon.
- Everything will pretty much function the same, and I'll of course migrate
all existing posts/users/pms/etc before I deploy the new code.
- My goal is to have a stable server with an open codebase so that even
a newbie programmer can contribute. I'm excited. :)

getting back on point, any preferanes as to where our Little Group should be stationed? Prefferably not somewhere that is covered by another JFW
Personally, I was thinking somewhere far away from where the Neuroi currently are, but that was mostly because of some story thingies in my head. I think having some travel by train, some by boat and so on would allow parts of the Group to meet up first. Like, Orusian, Karsland, Baltland and Suomus taking trains, since they really weren't known for ships during the time, and other nations, Liberion and Fuso in particular, but also Britannia, would travel by ship. Since I think that the journey will play a big role for our characters, especially if it is far away. Like for my Suomus witch to go to... Just pulling a name out of the hat, India or Australia, that'd be a trip halfway around the World, and a completely different climate, so that'd be all new for her...

[SillyGoy]

I don't think there are any Neuroi Hives in Australia, and the Indian/Burmese Front is malaria-infested jungle hellhole. But it's your call, boss. I'll bend with the wind.

The idea of traveling to meet up sounds wonderful, though.

[Tracker]

There are none at the moment, yes. But since most other fronts are covered by other JFW's, I'd prefer a new front. Both were just examples of Places that aren't like Finland, anyways.

[Lennon79]

China might be a good place, partly because of the variety of biomes it contains but also because it's not often represented in SW. Also, it's a long trip for almost everyone XD

[SillyGoy]

We could head over to the Far East, based in Manchuria, and try to smash the Vladivostok Hive in a joint Orusso-Fusoan operation.

[Tracker]

I do like the idea of China a lot. And since Vladivostok isn't that far from China, we could have our base there. And we could fight in the varied terrain. I do realise that any Fuso witch wouldn't have to go far, they could even launch from their own mainland and reach the hive, but thats the risk we run, at least one nation will have to be close to wherever we pick.

[Lost Cause]

...There's a Vladivostok hive? I thought it was all western and central Europe. And possibly north Africa.

[Tracker]

I thought so too... but if there isn't one in official canon... there is one now, I guess. For the purpose of the RP. Or somewhere further inland.

[Lost Cause]

Eh, I shouldn't complain when I stuck an extra hive in northern Gallia for my RP.

[Tracker]

Right then, over China, Orussia and Mongolia it is. I'll add it to the OOC and then... probably post it if the guild will stay up long enough. Look forward to it. If the guild goes Down in the next 30 minutes, I won't have it up today.

[Tracker]

Okay, so now... what should we call it?
Okay, just going with what the RP will be... Its late, and I am kinda lazy by now.

[Tracker]

And here it is, in all its... glory?
Also, about the name, I figured that while there have been times where ground and air witches have worked together, I don't think there has ever been an official Group made for just the purpose of having the two co-operate, especially across nations like a JFW.
