Metro 2037

Something has come up on my end. I don't think I'm going to be able to commit to playing in this rp, unfortunately, so I'll have to bow out.

Best of luck to everyone though.

Metro 2037

I should be able to start work on a character this weekend. My own personal ignorance of guns aside, I'm happy to have my character be a gun mechanic-type character if no one else specifically wants the gig

Metro 2037

If you guys would like, I can make a short list of commonly made weapons in the Tube. Basically handmade guns that you could find a lot of people using, due to them being manufactured by gunsmiths throughout the Tube.

@Treue

I would greatly appreciate that.

Metro 2037

Whatever your imagination can cook up, as both Treue and I seem to be going for handmade stuff rather than pre war gear. That would include what the army had at that point (L85 assault rifle and its MG counterpart the L86, SIG Sauer P226 pistol) or various pistols (Glock 17, Glock 26) used by armed police officers. Benelli M4 and Remington 870 are (and were in 2013) used by the army and police respectively for breaching if you want to go with a shotgun. Some officers (such as Downing Street guards) use(d) MP-5 submachine guns. This site might help.

As we're going AU, that might change if Treue feels like it. Or maybe you could create a pre war weapon that doesn't exist, like the AK-2012 abomination from the games.

Also: In both books and games, Moscow was initially in contact with other people before the jammers were built (I recall nuclear subs being mentioned, but maybe other cities as well). Is London in touch ith anyone else and if so, how widespread is that knowledge?

@Starlance

Thanks for the link

Metro 2037

As someone who knows very little about real life guns, whatever the country, anyone got some suggestions on where to start in regards to finding out what guns my character might have?

Metro 2037

I'd rather Linear, personally, but I can do Sandbox

Metro 2037

So those are the major factions, but independent stations free of their control exist?

And for the Lords, since they sound like they haven't actually made contact with the royal bunker, do they sort of reign 'in waiting for the crown', as it were?

Overall though, I like them and the mutants.

Metro 2037

You're right about aquatic mutants. If I was a fish living in the Thames, I wouldn't need radiation to grow legs so I could get out of that dump. :)

@Starlance

It would probably help tho.

Metro 2037

I'd not be likely to join one, fwiw. I prefer doing things through the forums all things being equal

Metro 2037

Just because there wasn't a strong communist base at the time of the war doesn't mean the circumstances in the tunnels couldn't create it. I can't wait to see what factions we'll up with.

Anyone got ideas for characters yet?

@Starlance

True, but don't we want to make our London Metro not just a retread of the Moscow one?

Depends on how the factions break down. I have some ideas on characters, but nothing final.
