If you are a fan of Warhammer 40,000 or Age of Sigmar, let me know. Maybe we can put together an RP. I play Ironjawz & Kruleboyz in AOS and Salamanders & Drukhari in 40K.

Bio
I am a veteran of the United States Army and the US Army National Guard. I spent three years on Active Duty serving in the 4th Infantry Division (Mechanized) at Ft. Carson, CO, and the 3rd Armor Division at Kirch Göns, West Germany. I spent 18 years in the Army National Guard with the 26th Infantry Division "Yankee" and 29th Infantry Division (Light), "The Blue and the Gray". I was deployed to Bosnia-Herzegovina with the 29th ID (L) in 2001 - 2002. I have also been reading military history articles and books since I was 10 years old. I do prefer Military Role Plays over all other genres, primarily because I have a vast knowledge of the subject including personal experiences. At the very least, my characters are always veterans.
I have been writing for pleasure for at least 35+ years but only got into forum-based Role Playing about eighteen years ago. I do enjoy Nation Role Plays and get into minute detail when designing my military. The only reason I enjoy excruciating detail in my militaries is because for me, it is fun. My education and experience on this subject afford me the insight to see the depth of the structure. It is not just a General and a large pile of soldiers. If someone wants assistance in designing an army, navy, or air force, please send me a PM. I will help. Please specify what level (echelon) or depth you would like me to go. When I say echelon, I mean Army, Corps, Division, Brigade/Regiment, Battalion/Squadron, Company/Troop/Battery, Platoon, and Squad/Section.
When I was a student in High School, I used to play Dungeons & Dragons. Recently, I have been DMing a 5e campaign of my creation for my son and his friends. 5e is so much less cumbersome than earlier editions of D&D. I do have an interest in Tolkien-esque fantasy-styled Role Plays as well. Time travel has always been a fun genre for me, but to do it well, one must have a firm grasp of historical facts.
There are only a few fanfictions I will participate in; Star Wars and Star Trek are two of them. I want to do an exclusively Klingon RP one of these days. I also avoid Canon characters.
I have real-world martial arts experience. I would love to write an RP about hand-to-hand combat, no fantasy magic chit, just hands elbows, knees, and feet. Maybe the occasional head butt thrown in to mix things up. I trained in Krav Maga for six and a half years. I earned a first-degree black belt in Krav Maga on 3 June 2017.
Krav Maga is an Israeli martial art form that employs practical self-defense techniques drawing forms & techniques from Muay Thai, Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, and Taekwando. It is very brutal, demanding, and aggressive. During the seven years I trained, I have bruised two ribs, sustained several muscle pulls, and various lacerations and bruises over my body. I have received a sprained ankle and a fractured wrist. Before the first black belt test, I received a bone bruise to my right shin; where my roundhouse kicks impact. Yet, I am stupid enough to continue training. [Regardless of the physical pain, it is more fun than any other physical activity I have engaged in. Fortunately, the bone bruise healed up prior to the third and final test. EDIT: I did leave the sport over five years ago. :(]
Over two years ago I completed my first novel, a science fiction set in the 24th century. It focuses on a Private Military Corporation solely employed by the earth government. I started a second book in November 2022 and hope to work on that this summer when I have more time.
Send me a PM for a Role Play or if you would like to see what sort of an army I could build for you.
--Gunther (AKA: Old School)
Character Summary
Name: Gunther Aliases: Landain Age: old (I was around when George Washington was a Lieutenant) Birthday: August 12 Ethnicity: French, English, & Seneca (Iroquois Confederation) Location: New England Gender: Male Higher Education: Bachelor’s Degree in Political Science & Associate’s Degree in Criminal Justice Occupation: Substitute School Teacher Languages: English, Spanish, German & a little French Years RPing: 18 Preferred RP Section: Advanced or Casual RP Level: Advanced Dedication Level: Moderate Biggest RP Pet Peeve: People who do not communicate with the group and drop. But then, if someone loses connectivity for an extended period, there is no way of knowing. Teach New RPers Or Coach New GM's: Yes
Appearance
Height: 5' 10" (I shrunk!) :( Build: Medium Eyes: Blue Hair: Dark Brown Skin Tone: Moderate to tanned Tattoos/Scars/Piercings: no tattoos or piercings. 1.5” Scar on the back of the left shoulder (dog’s tooth); 5” scar on left wrist (fracture repair procedure); 0.5” scar on the left knee (rock strike) Personal Style: Jeans, T-shirts, and sneakers, wearing a ball cap. Three of my children have their own cars. Image: I look like a soldier because it is what I know. I tend to wear a high and tight haircut. Clean-shaven, although I grow a beard in November.
Sexuality: Straight Relationship Status: Married with Children Personality: Gunther is conservative but flexible and objective. He attends Catholic mass with his family regularly and attempts a life free from sin. He can be a very moody person swinging from very warm, friendly, and extroverted to quiet and secluded. He hates winter; January and February make him very depressed. Gunther loves his children and would do anything for them and his wife.
Gunther is a morning person, but that comes from a life of serving in the military. He would rather go to bed early and get up early; prefers to exercise in the morning over working out just before bed. His chief flaw is saying what pops into his head unrestrained without thinking it over before letting fateful words spill out, full-fledged Gryffindor.

History
What Brings You To Role Player Guild: There is a large community of writers here. I enjoy the hobby even though I rarely get time to participate. Currently, I try to limit my stories to one at a time. Unfortunately, I rarely find one I enjoy and others are willing to write in. When I do, they die way too early. Life Before You Came To Role Player Guild: It was very different. I don’t know how to explain it in just a few words or sentences. Life Since You Came To Role Player Guild: This is just a side hobby. I have many irons in the fire and this is just one of them. It has taken a back seat to my real life activities.
Extras
Quotes or Sayings: “Those who fail to learn the lessons of the past are doomed to repeat them.” – Winston Churchill paraphrasing George Santayana. “If you’re going to fight, fight like the third monkey on the ramp to Noah’s ark and brother…It’s starting to rain.” Theme Song: Warrior’s Call Advice To The World: Forgive the actions of those who came before us. Behaviors we consider heinous crimes today were generally accepted practices many years ago. Anything Else:
Are we supposed to discuss tactics IC or OOC? As in, if I were to respond to your summary with a suggestion (from an IC perspective, if need be) should I leave this as a comment IC or OOC?
On another note, I'm making a Black Iron Raider
Personally, if we have a question about tactics, I hope we can talk about it in OOC before our characters discuss it; simply to share ideas. If our characters disagree with us, the authors that is fine. Based on real world experience, I know I personally (Gunther) have more knowledge and experience in small unit tactics than my character even though she served as an infantry squad leader at some time in her life. I find it would be easier, f the group (authors/writers/gamers) come to some form of an agreement before we start plugging in responses In Character.
@PrivateVentures I made the changes you suggested and found a Gauss Rifle to add into the equipment section.
Name: Jhang Meili (Nickname: Mei Pronounced 'May')
Appearance:
Meili stands 65” tall and weighs 110 Lbs. She has brown almond shaped eyes and a fair, youth-filled complexion. She has several scars of varying length across her body; trophies from the many fights she has been involved with. Meili’s hair is completely black. She keeps it long, either braided to the rear or in a high ponytail, often tucked inside the back of her armor. Her hair is rarely permitted to splay across her back in an unkempt manner. She is muscular in a lean way, more thin than robust from years of a cardio vascular dominated training regimen.
Meili wears a black form fitting leather body suit with golden markings of dashed lines or highlighting accessories. Her high soft leather boots are also form fitting, giving her additional flexibility during movements. They fit her feet smoothly allowing her to walk quietly when necessary. Atop her head is a hooded cloak and optional helmet she wears when necessary. Generally, when in an inhospitable climate. The hood conceals her face quite easily. When not engaged in the act of her profession, the hood reveals her girlish looks.
Bio:
Meili was born in the Guangdong Province of Southeast China, near Hong Kong. Her parents were not wealthy, working menial labor for a local railroad or city government in Hong Kong. Jhang Li and Jhang Mei were happy with their lot in life and bore five sons to help protect their baby sister, Meili. Their second youngest child Jhang Meili was not happy to remain in Hong Kong or China, leaving the family home when she was sixteen years of age to make her own way in the world.
As children, Meili and her brothers practiced unarmed combat, developing their own skills. They fought just like any group of siblings in the world. It was their thing to do. The brothers did not spare their sister. They wanted her prepared to take whatever abuse the world could dish out. There was no way she would be released upon the universe as a delicate untainted flower.
Meili wanted to fight as a warrior, learning what skills she could. She attempted to join the Army, but was denied due to her age. She found a skilled master of Gong fu willing to train her in Wǔshù (unarmed combat) and Quan Fa. Quan Fa is a form of fist fighting similar to Muay Thai. She spent four years training with Master Peng until she attained a black belt in his disciplines. This achievement entitled her to be a master of the basics. There was still a lot more to learn.
At age 22, she was permitted to join the Army. She learned discipline and how to use various weapons including sniper training on the Ruan Rifle, one of the premier sniper rifles designed in the far east. She spent the next four years training as an infantry soldier attaining the rank of 班長, “Officer of the squad” or Sergeant. During her time in the military, she continued to train in Wǔshù and Quan Fa, achieving a second degree in the martial skill during her third year of service.
After four years in the Army, she was ready to try something different. She hired on as a bridge crewman on on a merchant ship and headed for the stars. She trained on a couple of duties including helmsman and navigations. She also continued to keep her martial arts skills honed to a crispness, never allowing herself to become soft. While aboard ship, she trained in the use of a few melee weapons including the Dao, a single edged sword; the Ge, a form of pole axe; bo staff, daggers and throwing knives.
By age 30, she had developed a reputation as a tough fighter, sparring with several ship mates. She has also become skilled at maneuvering large space vessels and plotting their location amongst the stars.
Before her 31st birthday, Meili returned to Hong Kong in order to test for her third-degree black belt in Wǔshù and Quan Fa, which she achieved in three months.
At this time of her life, things changed drastically. She completely fell out with her family. They felt she no longer respected them or the old ways of her culture. She felt they didn't understand her. It was as much a shock to her as anyone who knew the family. They wanted to have nothing to do with her, turning their back on their own daughter. This has left her bitter, but now Meili has taken in with pirates and signed on as a bridge crewman aboard the Endgame.

@PrivateVentures2-6 is a good safe number. I may take my character from that other RP we are in and tailor him to a sci-fi role.
I can appreciate your apprehension about the "undertaking". I love to go big on chit like this. Often times it does become overwhelming. Good luck, bro.
@GuntherSame. Which is why I went so hard on the planning. I figure more planning= more stable rp= hopefully more interest
I can relate to that comment. I always go heavy on the planning too, with that same thought in mind. The flip side of that coin is too much detail might scare folks away too. :/
im interested, but math confuses me easily and the class variant list is just gibberish to me, sorry.
On the other hand, Math is kind of like Breathing for me.
Interested [Thief, Assassin or Raider] Will we need to roll dice for stats? DURABILITY, EQUIPMENT LOAD, STRENGTH, DEXTERITY, VISION, CHARISMA, AGILITY, SKILL, and LUCK.
If you are curious, this "Hat" is technically called a Cap, Vehicle Crewman or CVC. It is common to hear a tanker or Mech Inf soldier call it, his CVC. Just if you were curious. :)
Tomorrow, I am giving a presentation on D-Day at my daughter's school. I hope to narrow the focus to Winters' Assault on Brecourt Manor, but I may not have time to focus it that far--limited by time. :(
I would be interested in your Shellshock~To The End (Vietnam War Character RP), but your posting frequency is extremely quick for me. If you got one post a day from me you would be fortuitous. Weekends are much better, but I do get the occasional brief snippet of time during the week. I am a busy father of four young children and don't have time to hang out online for hours on end. If I do not meet your standards for posting frequency, I will understand. I will have you know, that I am a retired US Army veteran and have been reading military history articles and books for most of my life. Reading Military History is my favorite pastime. This is a topic near and dear to my heart; one I have familiarity with real life experience.
