Traveller's Cafe 3: Brainstorming, discussion, tea, advice

[Zeinbrad]

I already TGed this to Lunas, but here's an idea I had from remembering when I watched "Nazi victory in WW2" videos.

A RP about a Nazi invasion of America.

Or a RP about the aftermath of a axis victory in WW2, where the Soviet union is the only ones left fighting the Third Reich. This is from the video I watched a long time ago, where D-Day failed and someother stuff I forget.

How on Earth do the Nazis manage to actually invade America? Is there some Hydra stuff going on where they've got giant laser bombers and crap?

Which I why I prefer the Soviet option.

Though we could do a Turning Point Fall of Liberty and have the Nazi's have zeppelins and the maus (IIRC) is their main tank and other toys that never got made.

You'd have to recreate the scenario in Turning Point, though, which is quite different from the OTL WW2 setup.

...also, I get the feeling you would basically rip off everything from that game.

Nope, It depends on what Lunas says, which I'm pretty sure he'll go with the Soviet Union option. Which I prefer.

Oh, and I don't rip off stuff. Which is why people saying I rip off WH40k/Halo for the Gaiaverse greatly amuses me.

What about your alleged "funiverse" which ripped off 40K, or the Yisuta which rip off that one race from that one game?

United Empire? Thing from when I was still a young writer that I decided to bring back for fun. Never will touch it again.

Yisuta-Oh my god, their both space samurai bears. But that's where similarity's end. I didn't even read the one races (Which name I forget) wiki article, just took the picture and did my own thing with it.

Well enough of this now, what was the discussion before we started pointing fingers?

Only one solution: Nazi flying saucers.

My insanity with the alternate WW2 RP.

Which is now a RP with the following description thanks to Lunas.

How about a AH where Hitler never attacks the USSR, and instead the world is locked in a 3-way (possibily 4-way) Cold War? (The Axis is split into the Pact of Steel and the East Asian Co-Prosperity Sphere because Japan and Germany never really got on or cooperated)

I highly recommend tossing all realism out the window before I stay true to my sig.

From what you've seen you still have difficulties dealing with some basic characterization and wordbuilding issues. How much time have you been RPing?

When I joined, like the instant I joined, a person invited me and I joined.

About characterization and worldbuilding, it doesn't seem to be a problem with me anymore, now that I am actually taking my time (Not feeling you have to make an RP about it or join before it closes helps with that) it's much better.

So I had this idea of a mystery-theme roleplay game where events would take place in an abandoned castle of an enigmatic royal. The timespan would either be around the 90's or in the present day. I would choose one of the participants as the culprit in secret and he would be instructed to roleplay as natural as he/she can. I would be a butler or some other neutral where I would interfear with the players and occasionally hint them somewhere.

I know, it's very messed up at this point. I would love to have a mystery-genre game such as the one above in NS.


Ideas? What do you think?

[Gvozdevsk]

So a few days ago I had an idea for an RP where the characters would all have become vigilantes for some reason or another. But they all have one thing in common, whatever caused them to become a vigilante in the first place can all be linked back to the same criminal organization. And so, they've all teamed up on a mission that will take them deep into the criminal underworld of [insert random large American city] to get their revenge.

Look, we all end up borrowing/shamelessly stealing stuff from things we like, whether we do it consciously or not.

I'm not saying everything in the Gaiaverse is not borrowed or anything, Even I will admit the Gaiaverse is not 100% original.

Like the Naus Bordon, which I got the idea from Calamity Raven from VC3 (Oppressed minorities form a elite unit) and Jylus, who is your regular badass never talking Bounty Hunter on a vengeance quest. Coming from the top of my head.

Eeem....guys. Little help with my project?

[Kassaran]

Eeem....guys. Little help with my project?

Well, Neo Arcad and I are working on a project somewhat like that right now, but it's currently in production and scripting stages so we can't say much right now. Essentially, we're putting it through Alpha... early Alpha.

Sounds fun.

RP INTEREST AND FEEDBACK REQUEST

Please provide as much detail as possible.
RP's Overarching Concept: Playing as RCMP Constables in an underfunded and remote detachment
Genre/s: Crime, Action
Character or Faction Based: Character
Detailed Description: Players would play as Royal Canadian Mounted Police constables in a remote station, with little to any local police support, lack of reliable equipment, or any real funding for that matter. The players would be expected to respond to a variety of calls in this rural setting, trying to deal with them as well as possible. Characters will also suffer the affects of traumatic incidents, such as dealing with dead bodies, gunfights, and the like.

As a Canadian this is relevant to my interests and I can recommend some towns to be based out of.

Canadian? I though you are Russian!

[Gvozdevsk]

Canadian? I though you are Russian!

I'm a Canadian of English/Irish descent and my last name supposedly comes from Irish nobility. That's about as far away from Russian as you can get. I just happen to have a personal interest in the Slavic countries.

disregard this I'm actually a GRU spy glory to Putin

HA HA! The CSIS Sting operation worked!

[Zarkenis Ultima]

Is it just me, or does about half of this page belong in the Restaurant?

Indeed.

There is indeed a market for dice-style RPs. As far as I can see, nation RPs already make some use of statistics, even if only for comparison purposes (From what I can see, I admit I have very little knowledge on nation RPs). It doesn't seem like adding in your mechanics and some dice would be too much of a stretch, in my opinion.

Ideas? What do you think?

It sounds interesting, but I must ask, what would the culprit have done? You didn't specify. Did they kill the royal or something? Also, what's the reason for the characters being there?

Anyway, I believe it's a good idea, you should go for it once you flesh it out a bit. I can't think of much to say right now, though.
