Unto the Breach: A Gate RP (OOC|Open|Fantasy-MT)

[Kassaran]

Also realize that the Jericho Trumpets were used as a form of terror weapon in WWII, so the ethics and the reasoning for putting them on a Tucano might be questionable. Nevermind the association that Jericho Trumpet holds with Nazism, the Luftwaffe of WWII, and other great travesties. It might be done in poor taste if you use a Jericho Trumpet.

More importantly, Jericho Trumpets were built for dive-bombers. Why are they on helicopters?

Umm, what? Super Tucanos, Tucanos, and their like are all fixed-win aviation... you have me confused.

Wait, I thought this was a helicopter. I didn't know we had fixed-wings.

[Kassaran]

Not yet, we're slowly but surely getting there.

Tag, I actually don't have as many threads now and I could use another P2TM one to join.

Oh I very well realize. It was just an idea I had floating around, considering we're not at the point of jet powered fix-winged aircraft yet.

Hey, welcome. We're also open to new people

[Second Helghan Empire]

FOr the ideas of the jericho trumpets, I could see where it would be useful to have some form of intimidation weapon, as it could scare locals out of a fight and disperse them. non-lethal so to speak

Well I think having a sonic boom would be a much better idea, but we're not at the point where that's possible or that I can Dues Ex it out of my ass. I also have another idea besides the Jericho that may work...

Just do what they did in the series and hook up speakers and blast Ride of the Valkyries or something.

Don't worry the time for Apocalypse Now refrence will come soon enough

I've already snuck in a few myself

[Western Imperial Union]

Are we allowed a character on both sides of this, the natives and the earthers?

[Bentus]

Are we allowed a character on both sides of this, the natives and the earthers?

Sure. It's also not necessarily a dichotomy between native and earther. You could have a native who sides with the UN, or who sides with the Empire, or maybe someone who opposes them both if you'd like.

Okay so I can make a second character for either side?

As long as you feel comfortable putting in the time to RP a second character Go ahead and write up an app, if it's UN we can try and think of some way to get them to join in with the action once they're accepted.

Okay I will hold off until after my character actually ends up being involved with the UN people. It may pick up a lot then and I didn't expect it, until then I will lurk until the group gets to coda.

[Malshan]

Speaking of character listings...aren't we getting a bit full?

[Kassaran]

We would be if more of them actually posted.

Well the Helo has to make a supply run in the morning to restock our food, and there's already two soldiers coming in on that one. Plus there's more than one Helo at the base, so if they end up being UN they can come in that way in the morning. But if you do that, you'd pretty much be arriving right before the Convoy leaves for Coda

We would be if more of them actually posted.

I wish they would. The last time the UN ranks were offically updated was a few weeks ago [page 22 OOC] when I made of the fire team assignments. Since then I've been meaning to update it. Another round of TGs may also help

[Kassaran]

I'd do things, if it weren't for the fact that there actually isn't all that much to do. I might have Thompson interact with the medic and Karev since he's already there, but I'm not too sure how much his input my affect things. Probably substantially, but if nothing comes in response, then there might not actually be all that much that happens in the end at all. Oh well, some character interactions are always nice, I'll make sure to drop something in on the 'morrow for ya'll.

Eh, Karev seems to be quite interesting in conversating with Thompson, given the chance. And Character interactions are important, as just constantly mowing down Imperials can get dull if its a bunch of facless people killing facless enemies the whole time. I personaly believe in creating a personality ICly, rather than having one pre-made OOC, so I think of it as quite important. Once the "introductions" in the lead Iveco, and whatever comes from your Iveco seems to wind down, I'll skip camping out [as not much will really happen] and get us all setup for the Helo resupply and the arrival at Coda

Which reminds me I need to TG Bentus and Zjaum
