Capile has once more erupted into conflict and strife. The Communists, Fascists, and Royalists are at each others' throats,
waging a destructive war against their own country while the smaller factions nip at their heels.
Perhaps there could have been peace—
but the only reality now is war.
1. Your first entry must be an introductory post, detailing your government's official message of support to the faction of their choice and embarkation of men/supplies/etc. to their destination in Capile.
2. Every post must be formatted in some way. That could mean using one of my templates and adding images and quotes and line breaks, or simply adding a bolded header— both, and anything in between, are acceptable.
3. Do not spam this thread. Take time crafting each post (which should be four to five paragraphs in length at the least), and please make sure you can be proud of whatever writing you upload. This will also ensure that the other players have enough time to respond before you overwhelm them. If you find that you need to submit a post to keep the roleplay going but don't have enough to write about, then I suggest working on characters! A little character development never hurts, and will only make our roleplay more engaging.
4. In the same vein, always spellcheck your posts. Proofread your post at least one time before submitting it to catch any glaring grammar or spelling mistakes. (I recommend getting the free spellcheck service Grammarly.) Extensive grammar mistakes and/or poor post quality are both grounds for banning you from the roleplay.
5. Under no circumstances submit an out of character post to this thread. OOC is an immersion-breaking eyesore that can easily derail an in character thread. Absolutely all OOC commentary should be confined to the OOC thread.
6. Chemical weapons/weapons of mass destruction are banned and must be appealed to me via telegram for approval.
7. No god-modding, metagaming, future technology, taking control of someone else's character, etc.
8. You are highly encouraged to write both from the perspective of your nation and from that of characters in your nation. A good mix of perspectives from which to write could be, for example, the governmental leader of your country, a military officer commanding your forces, and a front-line soldier.
9. If you make yourself a nuisance (frequently getting into arguments that derail the thread) or break any of the aforementioned rules (posting multiple OOC posts to the IC, submitting multiple poor quality/short posts, etc.) you can and will be banned from the roleplay. I don't want to do this, but I will if you come between the other players and a good, immersive roleplay. Please respect my decision to remove you from the roleplay, and if you have any qualms, take them up with me via telegram.
10. Again, my telegram inbox is always open. Feel free to ask me questions concerning the roleplay, suggest ideas, seek approval for your own plans if you think they might be controversial, ask for help or inspiration, provide constructive criticism, etc.
