I made it readily apparent that there wasn't going to be a successful siege.

Now, the focus is going to move towards how these two factions deal with each other, seeing as we both really want to kill each other, new management or not.

I just realized my character name Gared is the same as a guy from Telltale Game of Thrones Gared Tuttel. Who's up for a north grove.

Yeah... I have a feeling the world is far too wounded to even contemplate a fragile, nearly Cold War level pseudo-peace.

But, maybe a ceasefire followed by some sort of attempt on peace instead of just fucking over everyone because one guy pissed you off. Maybe you could dethrone Mackenzie and put Sister Mary or someone else in their place. Maybe Mayor Watts.

I think a temporary ceasefire might work. At least for a little while.

I've got plans for the Vultures.

And I have plans for Dixie.

Do any of your plans involve killing everyone in Salida?

Also, Wally, if memory serves me correct, Luke was born in New Orleans. I'd probably have him swing trough in my epilogue depending on how things go.

Various things. Namely a bit of rebranding.

Trying to make them more of a genuine faction, rather than a bunch of people whot kill folks.

Probably not. Not terribly interesting, if you ask me.

The Cold War idea is certainly on the table, though. For reasons that I plan to clear with Bei first.

Maybe it could be incorporated into a later Faction RP?

Do any of your plans include freeing the slaves? (This is 20 questions, BTW :p )

Well, there was already a planned coup. Jen's just the person they're using at the moment to take control and get the Vultures off Salida for the moment.

The first attempt at a coup just failed miserably.

Yeah, but that's because they didn't have the hat. :p

But yeah. So, how much of the war party is left? The remnants had to have killed some people before they got caught, foley killed some people, the people Jen killed, the people Luke (Will post about) Killed, the Salida defense forces kills, the minefield, ect. They should be around the 150 mark now.

Probably about...147 people left at this point. That's excluding the roughly 50 people they left behind to keep Junction and Aspen under control and form a rear guard, plus the people left in Denver...

About 315 people all together in the entire faction. About 250 Scavs in Denver too, but they're only 3/5ths of a person anyway.

Dixie would have a problem ruling and invading Susquehanna Confederation let alone Colorado.

Also I plan on introducing a new character along with a few other characters that travel with that character. It will be part of Gared's story line and could cause a little excitement for other players.

I feel bad every time I click on one of your links because my internet connection usually can't run YouTube without buffering for an eternity.

M'kay. So, what's the short term plans for the Vultures. (Y'know, how you're not getting the new management killed by the war party)

Brilliant post, Gres. You have no idea how much satisfaction I felt reading the deaths of each and every bandit commander. Then again, now all the guards' attention will turn to how many bodies Hugh has dropped in the last ten minutes.

Well, depending on whether any of the Garmanys are alive by the end of this, we could collaborate on an epilogue. Although I do currently have an idea involving Christopher and San Francisco.

Well, I planned on Luke getting promoted upon his return to Dixie to a Brigader General, so he could possibly be involved in Dixie-Louisiana alliance talks, if he lives to the end of the story.
