I think watching fight scenes can help in general terms with writing combat, since it can give you an idea of flow and choreography.

At least if you're writing something you know, with knights.

I mean, depends on what you're writing, and the tone and theme of what you're writing. Trained armored knights were legitimately monstrous on the battlefield, so looking up how they fought helps.

As much as there's a lot of reasons twitter sucks, I genuinely don't want to see it die for the sake of all the artists who now rely on it. Hoping the shithead stops trying to directly administrate.

Twenty years ago, Lord Atoran Yeln used his wealth and cult of personality to convert his home city, based on the floating island nation of Kyn, into a fortress from which he could terrorize countries into submitting via the extensive weaponry held within. It worked, and the Empire slowly expanded. People within its bounds were held to a strict code introduced by Yeln, but provided they did so enjoyed a relatively high standard of living... for a time.
During its existence, the Yeln Empire offered what it claimed to be stability via a strict code introduced by Emperor Atoran Yeln himself. However, this code was in fact created to introduce a situation in which any behavior Emperor Yeln did not approve of was punished harshly. In addition, Yeln did not see the inhabitants of Crinitia as people, and upon conquering the country proceeded along a policy of treating them as slave labor and conscripts.
Those who dissented against Yeln's tyranny were executed if they were discovered, and those who attempted to aid Crinitians were tortured before facing execution. Still, there were some who managed to successfully defect from the Yeln Empire, which was one of many causes for the impending war.
In the final assault on Kyn Fortress, Emperor Atoran Yeln was killed when his body was cut to pieces by Dame Angelese Tirese and her Arch-Lancer squad. Kyn Fortress was destroyed as it crashed into the sea.
That was a year and a half ago.
Now, Crinitria has struggled to rebuild, the beastkin that call it home often viewed as remnants of the Yeln Empire. The people of Laake, a country instrumental in Yeln's downfall, is now filled with saboteurs who no longer have a purpose. The War against the Yeln Empire took its tool, even though Yeln fell.
And now, a strange girl with an enormous rifle is seeking to travel across the lands, seeking something mysterious...
So this is going to be an RP with a maximum of ten players(counting myself). This will be a group of four accompanying said strange girl, and a group of five acting as player antagonists.
The players accompanying the "strange girl" will be people she has hired(near the beginning of the RP) to escort her. Anyone how would accept such a job is acceptable.
The antagonists will be agents of a new government agency of the relatively distant country of Tinnec, founded to help rebuild after the war and hunt remnants of the Yeln Empire. They might not be all the seem, however...
Laake: A country on the border of the former Yeln empire, Laake is known for its fusion of various architecture styles, and its production of a variety of different foods. Fiercely independent, Laake refused to submit to Atoran Yeln's conquest-based desires. This rejection of the Yeln Empire is indeed one of many catalysts that lead to the war that destroyed it.
Laake boasts a strong military history in spite of its small size, possessing an elite special forces unit created with the purpose of infiltration and sabotage. Individuals are trained for a long period before deployment, allowing them to exhibit a high degree of skill in stealth, combat, and the elimination of targets.
Laake is ruled by a constitutional monarchy, boasting a popular ruler.
Crinitia: Crinitia is a small country, and considered the homeland of the Crinitians - or animalpeople. For several centuries, it was an independent nation noted for exporting rare fruits, and being a tough place to live for humans, due to colder climates and relatively few settlements. While not a poor country, many native Crinitians choose to leave the country for less harsh living conditions - those that remain are typically suited for hunting and fighting.
However, this land was unfortunate enough to be one of the Empire's first territories to envelope. Faced with its' far superior technology and overwhelming presence, the Crinitians were forced to choose between annihilation and subjugation. While the Empire was active, the natives were treated as slave labour or conscripted soldiers; gender and age were of little importance to the Empire, who considered the Crinitians as little more than animals.
Because of the Yeln Empire's policies regarding their people, Crinitians had become a common-enough sight in their ranks, that many people today still see them as remnants of the fallen Empire, and as such, are often treated with distrust, or even outright hostility. Many people, even citizens amongst the former empire, were unaware of how cruelly treated the Crinitians were. Many believed them to be willing participants, when in truth, they were little more than cannon fodder for the empire, meant to soak up the bullets and blades of the enemy for the real forces.
Though the Empire has fallen, the country is still rocked with poverty and crime, no longer a peaceful place to live.
Tinnec: A more distant country, Tinnec was still instrumental in the defeat of the Yeln Empire, deploying its elite Lancer teams to ultimately slay Emperor Yeln himself. A militaristic monarchy, nevertheless it seems rather eager to spring to the aid of other countries and assist in rebuilding after the long war against the Yeln Empire.
Magic and Magitech Employed in some weapons and all airships, technology employing magic is not everpresent, but definitely not unheard of either. Most often it is used in air-based vehicles and some weapons. Magic is also possible to use on its own, providing a variety of effects. Technological advancements are wide and varied, such as the technology that allows floating islands to be converted into vehicles(the largest of which being the capital of the Yeln Empire) and even genetic engineering and the creation of extremely human-like robots.

Lyrie Cossette
"Ah!"
Someone had approached her! ... And it was someone... kind of scary. Lyrie clutched her staff tightly to herself as she opened her mouth and then faltered for several moments, unable to get any words out. How embarrassing, she had shown up to serve as a healer for the Iron Roses and now she couldn't say anything to one of them. But he was really pretty gruff and intimidating-looking! The small blonde girl fidgeted, shuffling her feet under her as her gaze directed itself firmly downwards at the ground.
"I-I'm here to serve as a healer, u-um, Fanilly-I mean Captain Fanilly! I-I mean Captain Danbalion! Ah..." This wasn't going well at all... nervously, Lyrie kept shifting from one foot to the other, looking everywhere but the knight who had greeted her. He was going to get mad at her or something, wasn't he... even if Fanilly was her cousin, she was still the Captain of the Iron Rose Knights. That meant that she definitely shouldn't refer to her as anything less.
Especially given that Fanilly must have been very busy, after all...
Konpaku Youmu
This scenario was far too strange. Those outside world vehicles, and... some sort of commotion going on at the other side of the bridge? It didn't take long for the small silver-haired girl to conclude this was some kind of incident. Therefore, the only logical course of action was to see just what was occurring. With this in mind, Youmu started across the bridge. Her phantom half drifted along behind her, and sure enough it did indeed become clear there was something occurring on the other side of the bridge. There was a great deal of men, fully human as far as she could discern, some of them carrying something she didn't quite recognized. It seemed familiar, in some respects, but she couldn't place her finger on just what those things they were carrying were.
One of them pointed at her, and said something she couldn't make out to the others.
Youmu raised her hand and waved.
"Hello!" she called, "Do you know what's-"
There was a sound almost like a crack of thunder, and something tore towards her. Instinct took over in an instant and she ducked to the side, expression hardening as she smoothly drew Roukanken and lashed out, the gleaming blade flashing in the daylight as it cut the projectile cleanly in two, dampening the shot's momentum and sending both pieces off-course. Quickly, this lead the silver-haired girl to a number of conclusions.
The first was that it wasn't danmaku. The second was that these were enemies. The third was that, since they were ordinary people from the outside world, Youmu was not going to use any lethal methods unless absolutely necessary.
As the men seemed to express surprise at what she had done, the small girl drew Hakurouken as well.
Putting on a burst of speed, Youmu immediately darted into the midst of the men, directly in front of the man who had fired his weapon at her. He only had a split second to gasp in shock and take a step back before she drove Roukanken's hilt directly into his chest, his eyes bulging as he let out a strangled yell. The impact set him back about two meters before he hit the ground and rolled, passed out from the blow.
The other men were, needless to say, somewhat shocked. Youmu reminded herself that the outside world very likely wasn't used to such displays as she raised both her katana.
The first one to raise his weapon again after her arrival had it promptly sliced in half.

Saber - Arturia Pendragon
To be honest, this wasn't anything Saber could have expected. A resplendent golden theater, the Aestus Domus Aurea that the notoriously vain Nero constructed in life was mainifested as-
"A reality marble?" she asked. She had seen one previously, the King of Conquerers' internal world supported by his army. But this was different. Perhaps supported entirely by the vanity of the one who had created it? Regardless of what the circumstances were, there were far more important things to focus on. Arturia quickly swallowed her surprise at the sudden manifestation of a reality marble. She had to be prepared at a moment's notice, even as lasers rained down and pelted the whale-beast, courtesy of Ozymandias. Indeed, the beams hit home, striking the massive beast and forcing it to thrash about in pain and shock.
It seemed as if there was nothing such a creature could do, stranded in the middle of dry land. At least until it suddenly manifested the storm directly above their heads. Immediately a torrent of rain poured down upon Nero's theater, and streams of water arced through the air, seeming to lash towards anyone else in the arena. This couldn't be allowed!
Crouching low as another arc of water tore towards her, Arturia sprang into the air, her dress trailing behind her. Her armored boots hit water and she sprinted across the arc before leaping again, landing on another arc of water and sprinting up running along the stream of liquid. Her goal was to close in on the whale creature, drive her blade through its flesh, and fire a blast of prana directly into its body. It was too large for simple cuts to quickly make a difference, but an attack striking directly inside of its body...!
The blonde girl-knight had swiftly made her way into the air and above the creature, using the very streams of water the beast had been attacking with in order to get herself into position. Light traveled up Excalibur's blade as it came into view, Invisible Air releasing with a rush of wind as she hurtled downwards towards the monstrous whale-creature...!
@Raineh Daze@Rin@PKMNB0Y
Saber - Arturia Pendragon
Her attack had hit its mark! The enormous creature beneath the water had been struck, the beam piercing through its flesh. Unfortunately, Saber had been unable to strike it in a vital area, and it surged beneath the waters deeper... by this point, the only way that the blonde knight could trace it was the trail of crimson it was leaving behind it. And it seemed that it was heading directly for the ship. Quite simply, this wasn't an acceptable outcome, and inwardly the girl cursed the fact that she hadn't foreseen this outcome. Placing the others in immediate danger... immediately, she broke into a sprint, back the way she came. She had to do her best to outpace the beast under the waves, leaping off the crest of one particularly large arc of water before driving onward, ducking low to make herself more aerodynamic against the winds.
She'd reach the boat first...!
And indeed, the shape of the ship became visible through the pouring rain and crashing waves. Taking a deep breath, Arturia opened her mouth, and...
"There is a creature beneath the water, approaching the boat!" cried Saber.
@Rin@PKMNB0Y@Raineh Daze
"Ahhh..."
Her home was rather distant, she had only met her cousin a few times before. The young girl clutched her staff to her chest and sighed as she looked up towards Candaeln. Her robes swished lightly as she shifted from one foot to the other. In her heart, there was a mix of a few different emotions. Chiefly, there was awe. Awe at Candaeln, the legendary home of the Iron Rose Knights, the place that her cousin now dwelt. But second in her heart was simply how nervous she was. Was she really allowed to be here? Was it okay for her to be here? Taking a deep breath, she approached the doors. Fanilly had told her that she would be waiting for her... Well, it was in a letter, but her elder cousin had been adamant about it.
When the doors opened, and Lyrie stepped into the halls, well... there was no welcome party. There was... well, no-one in particular at all, save for a few Servants busying themselves about.
"... Um... h-hello?"
The blonde-haired girl shuffled in further.
"Er, F-Fanilly? ... A-ah, I mean, Captain Danbalion! Ah..."
The girl clutched her staff to her chest again.
Where was her cousin...? Maybe she was busy... back then it had been before Fanilly had even carried out a single mission as Captain, but now...
Fanilly sighed. Her meal had been delicious, but... she paused for a moment. Sleeping in, rushing to get ready...
Had... had she forgotten something?

... Okay, going to add to my previous post...
Basically, because of that issue and because of the power level characters have ended up with, I'm honestly not feeling like this is really lining up with the idea I'd initially had that started this RP.
For one, the isekai characters being aware of their past and not just vaguely remembering it is actually pretty important, they need to be themselves rather then their new identity. More like... @Raineh Daze's character I guess? Influenced by the new life and memories but their original personality still there.
In addition I guess I kind of wanted the isekai characters to start out as "nobodies" who become much more powerful and the natives to be more powerful(ranging from low to high levels but still decently powerful) by default. At this level well... it just doesn't work with what I'd planned out.
This is partially my fault. There were a lot of characters who were technically acceptable but didn't have a high enough power level and I couldn't really figure out how to address that.
What I'm saying is basically that I just don't know what to do about this. The RP just... doesn't seem like it can work right now.
So, I'm left with the choice of... basically shutting down this version of the RP and maybe rebooting it in hopes of things fitting better. Either way this version of the RP isn't going to keep going.
Again, I apologize for not being clearer about some things. This is my fault too.

What I'm saying is basically that I just don't know what to do about this. The RP just... doesn't seem like it can work right now.
So, I'm left with the choice of... basically shutting down this version of the RP and maybe rebooting it in hopes of things fitting better. Either way this version of the RP isn't going to keep going.
Again, I apologize for not being clearer about some things. This is my fault too.
