The Siege
The Furnace, Losieda Constellation
Combat Simulation Arena / Arms Dealer / Firing Range
[ Final Apex Physical Athletics Ownership ]
The Siege is aptly named, running a rather mundane live fire range at the entrance that fires over the heads of those entering the establishment. Within is a comparative armory of weapons imported from the Star Empire and their allies or trading partners, providing one of the most comprehensive collection of modern fire-arms still available in the galaxy, up to and including modern military gear such as the Huerdaen Maedar or the Setulanite K-14. The true attraction, however, is the chance to use these weapons on other beings. Open to all sentient beings with the proper wavers, The Siege offers the opportunity to take newly purchased weapons out to play, loading them with specially modified false rounds designed not to kill the target, though significant bruising can be expected. Here, they run full size simulations, including House-run tank actions between sides supported by paying customer infantry, last stand actions, and take-and-hold missions. Their rules are limited, requiring eye protection, and providing the option to call yourself 'out', though the only true way to get out of the line of fire is to hit the dirt. Special deals are offered to organized combat groups willing to train against disorganized foes, and The Siege is known to cater to larger parties, booking the entire facility for up to 48 hours for particularly wealthy clients.
This thread is for the organization, planning, and running of games in the IC thread by the same name. I'll be naming and managing each game, as well as controlling who is participating. The standard rules are listed below, and any special considerations for each game will be listed with that game. Before anyone participates, I will need a full ORBAT of what they are bringing, and anything not listed in the ORBAT cannot be used. It should be assumed that as the OP, my word is law and anything I post occurs. When RPing with others, please keep in mind general RP courtesy. If you feel someone is godmoding, please bring it up to them or myself privately. If action needs to be taken, I will handle the incident.
Standing Rules:
1. You can bring any weapon you want, but it must be a slugthrower. Weapons found in my factbook are also permitted.
2. You cannot bring vehicles without first passing it by me.
3. Don't you dare write OoC in my IC thread. I will hurt you. If you have something to say, say it here.
4. Anything not brought in your ORBAT cannot be used.
5. I'm serious. If I don't see it listed, or there have been any 'suspicious' edits, I will bring the hammer down on you. I'm an evil tyrant. Deal with it.
6. I'm going to try to challenge you. This means I'll be 'killing' your guys. I'll have my own notes on most games, and try to throw a curveball for everyone.
7. Unless stated otherwise, eliminating a member of The Mob is permitted. These are NPCs. Some may be marked out as special, and I will denote this in some way that should be fairly obvious. If you're not sure, please ask.
8. RPing as part of the Mob can only be done by myself, or others I explicitly name. If you have good ideas, TG me, but please don't do so yourself without first letting me know what you plan and making sure it won't interrupt what I have in mind. This is more of a personal preference. I'd rather see you pay attention to your own guys and how they're acting/feeling.

Game Style is something I'm adding here to make this a little different. It lets you decide what type of allies enemies you want to play with. Organized is a contest between skilled teams on both sides. Disorganized is randomized and planned by me. I make no promises about not stacking teams. I am just sadistic enough to want to see how some of you do facing down adversity. In addition, Disorganized games permit the entry of single-character teams and Free-For-All allegiance. Half-Organized games are games where you want to gather a group of others all on one side, to face down The Mob and whatever else I may throw at you. These games can't last forever, I have a life, you know, and may bring in some factions without informing the Organized team.
