ooc [OOC] Equestrian Civil War Part 2: Flames of Battle

[Legendary Emerald 622]

Feel free to go attack Appleloosa now. I don't believe anyone is going to Cloudsdale, so I'll just insert a scene afterwards.

 

Don't forget the bonus objective.

 

I don't think I want to do anything until I know exactly what George/Neikos' role is. He's a medic from character description, but in his last post in the RP his character was guessing that he was squad leader as well. I was hoping he would clarify in another post in the RP, one way or the other, and then things could get started

Oh, dang. And she just went to bed.That probably means we have to wait on her, so the RP is a bit stuck for the moment. =P

 

Don't post for the moment. We can either restart in a few hours, or tomorrow then.

Dang. Well, at least I was able to post today.

 

Really wish I had a better idea of this "George" character. Character bio and the way he has been acting is a bit contradictory, for reasons I don't know.

Considering I had to drop out...I approve of what this has become.

Contradictory? Which part.

And George's role is Sergeant, aka a Squad Leader. The description I give in his Character Profile is obviously adapted to each Roleplay as normally he would be loyal to Celestia but here he is not, and war is not something that is depicted in the Show at least not how we do it, so I did not specify that case. ( I don't think we are going to throw pies around. )

Ah, okay, I get it now. I had a feeling it just had to do with adapting the character to the RPs material.

 

Sweet, it looks like things can get started for the Apploosa team, then. I'll make one more post, and then you can lead us out, Squad Leader.

 

Also, someone should totally join this RP now just to throw pies.

*NEW*

 

Since I didn't read the first Equestrian Civil War RP, can I get some specifics on what type of tech is being used? I knew that in order to get the Apploosa troops over there in time, they needed to fly. But I didn't know if jets were a thing that existed in this RP, since nothing comparable exists in the show that I know of. I found a clever workaround using the Shadow Bolts (now as a real team, as opposed to a trick by Nightmare Moon), but in the future, I'd like to know what is being used here.

 

Sword? Guns? Jets? Tanks? Previously, the forest had been burnt down; napalm?

 

Also, in my last post, I tried to clarify when everything was taking place. Basically, right now everything should be happening at the same time in the Lunar Republic. George and Serah are preparing to enter the forest at the same time Princess Luna/Nightmare Moon (which should it be, for future reference?) and Strong Hooves are going to interrogate Rainbow Dash. And it is late in the afternoon, at just around sunset.

 

I just felt the need to make things a little more concrete and less seat-of-the-pants.

Hmm. Even though I understand there are some things my character is required to do I would appreciate if I can actually RP him myself Emerald, thanks.

I made sure to not actually have your character do or say anything other than was necessary to start the campaign; toothless had mentioned in one of his previous posts here that we were free to start the attack at any time, and I felt that was a hint to get things started.

 

Because I didn't want to portray your character wrong (aside from the fact that I do that in my character's mind, which translates to all the exposition I write as well), I didn't have him speak or do anything noteworthy. If you would like to change something that happened, I will be more than happy to edit my last post to accommodate you.

[Neikos 968]

It's now what my character is doing but your style, it all has to be subjective so you can't say "George was unable to sound even the least bit convincing in his role" because that is not subjective at all but a statement. And it doesn't even matter it it's right or not. It just feels wrong. If I want my character to be unable to do his job I will say so, not you ^^

Ah, that's what it is.

 

Everything I write is subjective. It's third person limited writing style, where I as the author only know and see what my character sees. If my character sees you as unable to do your job, that will make its way into the exposition I give, because the exposition isn't impartial when I write. It's a stylistic choice on my own part, and not meant to be taken as the word of god. I'm not contradicting anything you write, only showing things from a different perspective.

 

It's the same reason why I did not use your characters' name prior to Serah finding out what it was. Until Serah learns that your character is a capable sergeant, she and by extension my exposition will not reflect that. Hope that clears some things up for you, and anyone else who was wondering.

[Neikos 968]

It's just unusual, that's why it struck me odd. I think I can life with it though...

Okay. I edited that last post a bit, just to make it more clear in its subjectivity near the beginning. I'll try to be a bit more clear in the future.

[Pinkie Diane Pie 217]

These guys are making different display names based on olden war or battle times, so I was thinking, if I HAD to change my name, then it would be Princess Pinkamina Diania Pies II. It's a very long name. I didn't know what else to choose to.

Since it has only been a few weeks, maybe months, since Nightmare Moon's return, the technology hasn't improved much.

 

HOWEVER, this does not mean that I'm limiting on any additional technology. Feel free to introduce new weaponry and vehicles, as long as you give an explanation on how it was built/created. Basically, don't just suddenly blow up Canterlot with F-22s and A-10 bombers. =P

 

 

Princess Luna/Nightmare Moon (which should it be, for future reference?)

 

Nightmare Moon should do fine, as technically, she's not Princess anymore. =P

 

 

This looks awesome should i join or not?

Alright, you're in! Feel free to join the RP! The link is in my signature under "Equestrian Civil War Part 2: Flames of Battle", or on the first page.

 

Once on the RP page, you should read the Lunar Republic briefing for the types of missions available. Just a note: The Appleloosa attack and Nightmare Moon's escort has already begun, but you can catch up to them if you hurry! xD

[Legendary Emerald 622]

Posting this for Neikos to see, and anyone else as well:

 

Since I don't know exactly what was used in the previous Civil War RP, here's what I'm going to tentatively suggest for weaponry in the Lunar Republic. There can be traditional melee weapons, such as swords, shields, axes, etc. But there can also be early guns, inaccurate and hard to reload, but powerful. I'd say grenades and molotovs are fair game as well. Role playing ponies can have access to more effective or outlandish weapons if they are able justify them within the context of the story.

 

This is just my suggestion, though. And if anyone involved in the previous Civil War RP knows what was used there, that'd be useful to know.

[Strong Hooves 289]

Strong already has his own weapons, A large battle hammer called Little Wrecker, and a set of steel spiked battle horseshoes :3

Somehow, without even reading Strong Hooves character bio, I guessed that he would use some sort of hammer weapon, lol.
