It has also come to our attention that for whatever reason that the seven sentence minimum requirement has been ignored, or forgottten. In either case, please ensure your posts are longer than seven sentences AND readable.

 

 

If you fail to do this, we will ultimately have no choice but to kick you out of the roleplay. Remember, seven sentences+. It isn't very hard to do.

Quick question: is Cadence meant to resemble a cross between Cersei Lannister and Lysa Arryn? She reminds me a bit of both of them for some reason, I think it's her love of her children and slight madness. 

[Dovashy 1,734]

@@Archi the Atmomancer I wasn't writing as Cadance, with Cersei Lanniser, and Lysa Arryn in mind. But now that you bring it up she does seem to resemble them both, ha, that's interesting. 

[Archi the Atmomancer 564]

Also, this combat system seems interesting. Will we be taking armaments into account or just the type of ponies making up the unit?

[Dovashy 1,734]

@@Archi the Atmomancer You're free to make suggestions, so far there is factional boost, so the NLR have the advantage at nighttime, and the others have their own individual benefits. I'm not sure how in depth we'll be getting into armaments though.

Hm, armaments might be getting a bit complicated. Still, if I have 1000 halberdiers vs 1000 lancers, the lancers should get slaughtered; charging onto a long, pointy stick is generally ill-advised.

@@Archi the Atmomancer True, hopefully we'll find some way to take that into account.

So for combat if an army as the element of surprise how much dos that help them?

Look at it this way. If you're in a nerf war, but you have to use the bath room, so you set your gun down to use the toilet, and someone bursts in and covers you in nerf darts, that was a very successful surprise attack. Same thing, only bloodier and more catastrophic.

I can't reply right now since my character requires dual colored text and all of my web browsers simply aren't working at the moment. I'll post a reply asap though.

@,

 

I've added you on Skype for the RP discussion.

Speaking of RP discussions what's the NLR going to be doing (I vote sowing the seeds of discord in the solar empire)

@@Dovashy,

 

So, ummm... I'm gonna put my OC application as a CE divison commander here. Now don't ask how a skilled engineer got the position of an infantry commander, okay? He knows his shit! He studied! :3

That's okay, right Dova?

 

Name: Zealous Sapphire

 

Gender: Male

 

Kingdom: Crystal Empire

 

Race: Crystal Unicorn

 

Appearance: His body and horn are blue crystal, sapphire, while his mane and tail are a mix of red and white crystals, ruby and quartz.Cutie Mark: His cutie mark is a gear and a hammer.

 

Personality: Sapphire pays great attention to detail. His military tactics are never too costly, as he cares for the ponies under his control. He is generally quiet, but when in a conversation never hesitates to talk, and never hesitates to initiate one, either. He also has a need for his ideas to be heard. Zealous is very capable, attempting to get everything done with the best of his ability. He is also very clever on the field of battle. Sometimes, though, he can be overly cautious and somewhat disorganized. And if he makes a mistake, often he will regret it for a while. He also commonly thinks about his fiancée, who he last saw when the war broke out. Complex contraptions always fascinate Sapphire, and if something is broken he often enjoys tinkering with it. Sapphire also respects fairness, equality, and opportunity.

 

History: Sapphire grew up in the crystal empire. When he was 9, his family moved to Canterlot, due to his father getting a job there. When living there, he was always bothered by the large gap between the rich and the poor in the city. Sure, his family was at the “bottom of the top” as one might say, but the rich in the city seemed to always look down upon the poor. There never was such a major dividing line in the empire. After living in Canterlot, and attending college there (Sapphire majored in engineering), he moved to Manehattan when he was 23. Here, it seemed as if anypony had a chance at their dreams. Sapphire quite liked that city. He lived here for the next 5 years of his life. In that great city he fell in love with a mare. Months before they got married, however, the war started. He hasn’t seen her since. Sapphire’s mind is often filled with thoughts of her, and how he wants the war to end so he can marry his true and only love. As the war broke out, he rushed home. In the Crystal army, he worked his way up as an engineer until a spot commanding an infantry (calvary?) divison opened. He applied, and remarkably, was accepted. Sapphire may have been a better fit as the head of the engineering corps, but inside he’s always had a fascination with armies, and wanted to lead a unit of his own. He often wonders how he got the position. Possibly the lack of willing officers, possibly the lack of capable ponies, or possibly the belief that he really could lead fighting ponies. Sapphire believes it’s the last one. And he hopes to prove them right.

Best I could come up with on the spot...I don't know. In hind sight...probably could've tried to explain it differently, but you get the picture. Ever heard of the saying "caught with your pants down"? That's what I was referring to (kinda).

So, have you had questions about this roleplay? I'm sure you have.

NOW YOU HAVE THE ANSWERS!
 

If you looked at this guide, and still think: "I have a question!" or "This didn't answer my question.", then go ahead and ask away. 
But please, don't ask me any of the questions on this guide. Thank you! 

[DarkSonic1221 30]

I'd be willing to bet money that people are still going to ask these questions like three days later.

Oh most definately

[Concerto Dusk 240]

I thought i did, but i guess not, sorry

[Dovashy 1,734]

Oh you guys are using mobile devices? I'm using a PC, so the sentences will vary. In that case I suppose it's fine as is.

Hello comrades.
This has been a long time coming now, but we are now moving the roleplay.
This roleplay will /no longer/ be onsite. I'm sorry for the inconvenience, but we'd felt it'd be best.
