That is correct, and concerning. I want to be involved but lack the reliability to be a host nor to portray a steady character. Content creation is something I am still good at, but finding someone to keep up the work while I'm away isn't easy.

I'll have to permit that person creative liberties and be able to work with the players (having played Tiny Tina's Assault on Dragon Keep I have learned a lesson about RPs- been on Borderlands 2 a lot recently). Sharing requires that one gives. I need someone who is interested in the setting and ready to expand on it. Someone to make it invigorating- lively- none stoic. It needs to be exciting with new content frequently. Not like my former RPs where I was all 'oh no not this not that blah'. (my mind is kind of Clap-tastic right now).

Agreed, but you also cannot have so many new things that the you lose the things you like about the old. You can't go Call of Duty, but yet you can't stay in stagnant water either. Keeping engagement is a major part of it. Problem is you can't go too far out there where everyone is like "WTF are you even doing at this point...?" Which is how my last idea came off. Thinking outside the box and yet still keeping close to it is the best area to be at creatively.

Oh, and glad to see you again, you glorious bastard :P We've been missing the philosophical side of things since you've been gone. I don't have a gift for your return, but I can make one real quick if you want. (It might suck, but it WILL have emotion XD)

Indeed, I heard that one does experience that.... Meanwhile, I'm still a cancerous decent RPer. :p Change is good.

Still, it's nice that you've come back, Harb. Since many would have agreed that you brought a good portion of activity in the Titans. Here's to your return, Harb.

Is there a fantasy world where I can shoot up a dragon using an A-10? Actually, any fighter jet would work, I'd just love to dogfight a dragon using a jet. I choose whatever option where that is possible, and if none of the options do then can I make one? <.< What if we mashed Fantasy Fiction and Modern Fiction together?

Maybe have some specific rules of the world (like physics, usually stories define what rules apply such as magic is a thing, but it cannot create matter, or something). Then, have a general plot and give someone the reins to decide how they get there and roll with the punches. If the team finds some smart way or unthought of path, than give it to them and provide obstacles. Either way, with a general plot and a list of things that are not going to be in the world, you should avoid the story going off the trains.

What if we took the world we know and then added some elements that we all love, but have not got to use because the ideas are always shelved? Granted we could also use a totally new world also. But we make a world where you have a conflict between two forces that people base their lives around, technology is something humanity is dependent upon as we all see; but what if we did not have technology and instead lived in a world more the likes of J.R.R. Tolkien or J.K. Rowling? I feel there is a lot to be learned about humanity and our relations to one another in a story where two sides clash over not understanding the other. It's a story that plays out everyday somewhere in the world, but it could be made unique with our own spins and twists to it.

Overall it seems like a moral rich environment where themes could be explored to their maximum if we pull it off right.

My only comment about that idea is that an A-10 isn't a very good fighter, especially since it's main purpose is for CAS and not engaging other aircraft, maybe with the exception of helicopters.

Surely a massive dragon can't fly that fast, I know some birds fly fast, but they are not massive iron skinned fire breathing lizards either. A-10s fly at 440 mph top speed, what top speed would you say the dragon has? We could always design a plane specifically made to shoot dragons in their hind quarters with fist sized bullets :twisted:

(A source I trust better put the A-10 at about 420 or closer to half a mach)

:) You are absolutely right (I still don't like what they did with CoD). What you are saying goes well with the ending of Tiny Tina's Assualt on Dragon Keep.

Also :) I appreciate your welcoming back :) Nothing more is required :) (but is flattering)

I only know zid, but I would love to see it again. We love you, Harb. :hug:

I too would love to see it continue :) The World of Zid has great potential. I do wonder where people will be interested in starting that one up again :) The City of Zid- the near to revolution kingdom of... (oh drat I can't remember the name of that place '_' I've been gone too long). Some one could do an entire RP about the Kingdom of Colm (ruled by the Dragon King) and it's war with that kingdom whose name I can't recall. Or they might do an RP about the Wizards of Zid, and the Dragon Elenor- or... perhaps a time traveling adventure where we return to the era when the Sorcerer King of Zid waged a war of conquest against the neighbors of the kingdom in a bid to unite the world under his rule. The War where Elenor became feared, and the Knights of (let me look up something)...

Well I found the original info page.

(and have found out that I can copy links :) )

So, a lot that can be expanded on, and a source of entertainment.

(Now to respond to the other posts, I apologize for being a little slow)

The thing is, modern fighter battles aren't dogfight, but blasting each other from outside of visual range with missiles. Now, a dragon may not be fast, but I would assume that it would have better maneuverability than an A-10, because if one expects to engage one, it would have to a dogfight. Now, if the dragon are can out turn an A-10, that means it can possibly use its breath attack to attempt to damage the craft.

It's great to see everyone is thinking :) I believe Saleon has a good idea, but don't think I can put that into practice as what is made must be for the enjoyment of the many and thus limiting things on a statement of forbiddance would be counter to my aim. If the multitude don't like what is added or comes into being then it can be fixed. Otherwise we shouldn't cut off the imagination before it ripens into fruit.

Seeing how I've recently seen the ending for Tiny Tina's Assault on Dragon's Keep (which did include guns fighting Dragons in a world on the brink of destruction) I am completely open to a mixture of Fantasy and Modern Fiction.

Though I would still like to keep the World of Zid on the table so don't forget about that possibility.

Now, if the dragon are can out turn an A-10, that means it can possibly use its breath attack to attempt to damage the craft.

Titanium is heavily heat resistant though if I remember right. So an A-10 like plane would be pretty god for fighting one I believe. The beast does not emit electronic signals though so I'd imagine missiles would be useless. So dropping all munitions that are not specifically designed to be pilot guided or fired by the cannon would reduce a lot of weight and likely help the maneuverability. We could always try to mix the F-18 and A-10, high mobility with a massive gun. Cause problem is dragons are the flying tanks of mythology. You'd essentially need a .50BMG in AP configuration to take it down, even then it would be multiple shots. So the goal would be either to increase bullet size or firing rate. Essentially we need a flying minigun which the A-10 does give us. The lizard would maneuver really fast though...

<.< I actually have no clue, because we cannot put the GAU-8 on the F-18 as the A-10 had to be built around the gun for it to even function. We might need some magic for this solution. What if we used a special kind of round that was enchanted? Problem is can you even enchant a bullet...?

I was looking back at the original World of Zid Info page :0

We should certainly do something involving dragons. Like, check out what was written about Dragons and give me some insight- what can we do?

I actually have wanted to create a world RP using my NS nation (Avalon, the Confederated States of) problem is the setting is a bit erratic tech wise (aforementioned dragon vs. plane happens often since they awoke in the Appelin Mountains) and the "realism" guys absolutely hated the idea. It is rich for exploration though, but it is a bit wonky. It has unique physics though, which, surprising for me, actually make sense.

How about modern fantasy and war, but try and mix in magic to technology. Artificial energy sources that power technological weaponry. Maybe even moral questions. I have always had an idea floating around of a wartime scientist imagining an energy source based off of human life (using people close to death, voluntarily) to power a city for X number of days, but then one of his work buddies begins to use it for the war. Ultimately, his buddy power robotic titans with soldiers and/or children (younger the body the more life force). The soul is plucked from their body and used to power them; ultimately the soul suffers as their new body is used in numerous atrocities. The original scientist then comes to try and stop this inhumane practice, destroys the blueprints and his research, and has to fight his close friend who has turned mad (the one who used the souls for war). A sort of science turn evil, scenario.

Well, I can deal with the mixture of realism and fantasy, especially if we use a similar setting to GATE: Thus the JSDF fought there!.

As for the "realism" guys, that randomness of your tech was off-putting, even if used in conjecture with science. Not to mention that your soldiers can be absolutely bizarre. :p Also, it's a bit unfortunate that you left PW, even more so with the new op that pretty much takes everyone to fight. I think your troops can be a somewhat effective counter to a force similar in operation to Task Force Atlas.

I caste HASTE on your BULLETS! MAGIC MISSILES!

XD

I can imagine the hangar bay

In the hangar bay stands an individual in a grey jumpsuit with wand in hand, "Hand of God I call on you! Grant these weapons the flight of angels and the speed of lightning in their task!" Thus a great light erupted in the hangar and the flight technician's task was done. Later tha tnight it would be realized.

In the dark of night the call came out, the SkyGuard was dispatched with force to save the town of Garlin from the clutches of fire and damnation. In the rain and downpour one dauntless pilot saw through his cockpit hellish flames erupt from the sky, knowing he carried with him the newest in a line of prototype weapons designed to slay this foe he lined up the shot and squeezed the trigger firmly. Orange bursts filled the stormy night as lightning filled the sky and the plane he flew waged battle upon the enemy, it's gun spewing round after round as it reached out in the darkness and struck the dragon. The beast wailed and roared as it smashed into the mountainside as a broken and crumpled heap. Thus was the birth of the FU-1 Dragon Slayer.

We should certainly do something involving dragons. Like, check out what was written about Dragons and give me some insight- what can we do?

DRAGONS of ZID

It was a part none the less :)

I would actually like to be able to bring my character back....... It's a shame that it died before the plot got moving.

How about modern fantasy and war, but try and mix in magic to technology. Artificial energy sources that power technological weaponry. Maybe even moral questions. I have always had an idea floating around of a wartime scientist imagining an energy source based off of human life (using people close to death, voluntarily) to power a city for X number of days, but then one of his work buddies begins to use it for the war. Ultimately, his buddy power robotic titans with soldiers and/or children (younger the body the more life force). The soul is plucked from their body and used to power them; ultimately the soul suffers as their new body is used in numerous atrocities. The original scientist then comes to try and stop this inhumane practice, destroys the blueprints and his research, and has to fight his close friend who has turned mad (the one who used the souls for war). A sort of science turn evil, scenario.

:0 Dude- I like- know something- kinda- It reminded me that I use to have an RP, a School RP. The background was that the world suffered an undead plague and the survivors where holed up in a walled region under the leadership of House Dracul (Dracula). The RP had Wolfman, Dr. Frankenstien- anyhow the region entered a civil war and armies of Frankenstien creatures fought to control the Lycan population. But rebelled against their masters.

I really should have had the RP take place during that conflict rather then after the war. I bring that up only because what You say about the human batteries and magic and science- we cam totes do a Science Fantasy setting with war, dragons, magic, technology, and good intentions turning foul in the pursuit of war time advantage. Dragon riders versus WWI bi planes, or machine gun mounted drakes assaulting a levitating keep.

I've never been involved in an RP set in Avalon though I know such was hosted once- so if Avalon is up for it- or perhaps a- well let's see what he thinks.

We can move on from the past. Let's bring your character back, in the world of Zid. I did promise that I'd bring that world back upon my return. First though, we'll need a character (we have your character) and a situation for that character to be in. Any thoughts?

Not really.

I liked the scenario enough and Gal might interested if we're bringing people back.

It is rich for exploration though, but it is a bit wonky. It has unique physics though, which, surprising for me, actually make sense.

Well, I can deal with the mixture of realism and fantasy, especially if we use a similar setting to GATE: Thus the JSDF fought there!.

As for the "realism" guys, that randomness of your tech was off-putting, even if used in conjecture with science. Not to mention that your soldiers can be absolutely bizarre. :p Also, it's a bit unfortunate that you left PW, even more so with the new op that pretty much takes everyone to fight. I think your troops can be a somewhat effective counter to a force similar in operation to Task Force Atlas.

Yes, probably because I hate TFA. They accepted a "Special Operations Force" that think a night raid is breaking into someone's farm and releasing their chickens and a "high priority task" is rescuing a cat from a tree. They drive Prius' (which by the way would be so easy to shoot up with an AK or RPG) and ten bucks says their camo is nice and rainbow tie dye colored so the enemy can see them and know they are there, plus they'd probably choose it for the free and creative design.

I might be bat shit crazy, but at least mine is effective. I love the random because it is unpredictable. Counter one way and I got five more. Would you rather fight a snake or a hydra? TFA should be easily capable of taking out this "Mirror Force" they are Tier One, they operate how TFA does, it is classic wolf on wolf. These guys should be trained in how other T1s fight. A bear fights moose and other simple prey, yes, but it also knows how to fight other bears. Predators hunt prey, but they also fight other predators. I cannot think of a single predator that does not fight other predators without becoming hunted and thus dead. It is adaptation and animalistic nature. Nothing is friend, all is foe.
