Hey Mizuyuki I have a question for you. Is your team driving an M4 Sherman or an M4A1 Sherman. Yes there is a difference. The M4 used a welded hull while the M4A1 used a cast hull. Furthermore is your Sherman equipped with modifications from the "blitz" improvement program. The "blitz" program added applique armor on the sides of the tank to cover the ammunition storage in those areas (as this was the real cause of the Sherman's tendency to catch fire. The side and turret ammo storage would get hit and catch fire). The program also removed the ready to use ammo in the turret ring an placed it in the floor under the turret. This is important because a hit to any of those areas without modifications would most likely count as a knockout (probably would with the armor but it would reduce the chances slightly).

Well a big part has to do with the fact were talking WW2 tech here. Anything beyond 1945 and my knowledge starts to decline.

Oh and Mon. These aren't genuine WW2 tanks here. There most likely modern day combat capable replicas built to original specifications. Since these tanks belonged to a Japanese school the manual would most defiantly be written in Japanese. Its not that big of a deal, just thought I point it out.

Edit: Please ignore the above statement. I thought I'd leave it in so you could all see how much of a moron I am. :palm: remind me to read through the hole post next time.

Excuse me, I might be interested in joining, but first, I had some questions. A) Do you have to control an entire crew, or can you pair off with someone else, and B) Is there a minimum post length in character?

A) Yes you have to control an entire crew.

B) Why are you even asking this. You should never write a post shorter than 5 sentences as doing so degenerates the quality of the RP.

You have the entire crew, however to balance out you really only have to give the Commander character depth. The rest of them can just be NPCs, if you don't want to have to worry about so many others.

Yup, it's a M4 Sherman, without blitz mods. The original tank, so to speak. I was hoping that we could acquire improvements as the plot wore on, in order to make it more durable and powerful.

Accepted. And I'm not going to limit how you write them in but as far as the story during the opening ceremony on the first day of school the school chairman and the Sensha-Do captain announced that the program would be revamped in the coming year. There was a sign up that day and everyone currently in the RP went and signed up. We've since advanced a day and everyone is gettting set up in their tanks so your characters would most likely be late comers.

That actually works well. Especially considering that all M4s were built with the same turret ring. Theoretically you could get most M4 variants out of the baseline M4 (not with the A1) since overall its similar construction.

By the way Cherriton. While it isn't necessarily required, images for the characters are always a plus. It helps others fill in the blanks. If you had any anime characters in mind for their appearances then by all means if not theres always googling their appearance and seeing what you can find.

Also since its airsoft we could do a mixed school. Lol I'll probably run with my personal armament of AUG and 8" barrel Luger.

*Sigh* I'l try to think of something and get an RP running.

I'm going to be now. I do my best thinking when I'm asleep, I might be able to have something up tomorrow.

Um I would imagine full combat gear. In the anime they only wear their school uniforms during casual games at the school. In tourneys and the like they were fatigues.
