Build Up Your Army Posted June 10, 2009 Share Posted June 10, 2009 (edited) In 2011, a great crisis befell the world. Vladimir Putin was embroiled in several corrupt, embezzling schemes hatched by him and the cabinet. After the pandemonium that followed, civil war broke out after an attempted coup spearheaded by Ivan Zharov. Although the coup was unsuccessful, it ignited riots and caused the people to rise up. Vladimir Putin went missing; presumed dead in the riots of Moscow. With the tension rising and the people having taken revenge upon the regime, a new power rose from the ashes: Novaya Russia, a czarist revolutionary faction which quickly took command of Russia, returning it to the White Army days. Zharov, a communist and former ally of Gregor Ushi (the leader and now Czar of Russia) felt betrayed after the rise of power. And so, he gathered all those supportive of him, and fleeing from the traitorous enemy, they resorted to terrorist and underground tactics. The board was set. Zharov knew attacking straight was foolish, as Gregor controlled the majority of the military. So Zharov did a master play; and invested his full support with the radical, down trodden states, and financing and arming them, he used the pawns to fuel his war effort. By 2012, war had begun between North and South Korea, all caused directly by Ivan. With a NATO and Novaya Russian task force on the way, Zharov then planned and executed several devastating coups in the Middle East, causing a major distraction as his now much larger army attacked Russia. The war had begun. By late 2012, the terrorist cells had began to stir, and through Ivans influence, guerilla warfare broke out in South America. With Europe at threat, the world at war on three different fronts the the potential for more and more casulties, it would only be a matter of time before alliances and enemies were made. The only question is: Who will you lead to victory? Okay, this is a BUYG-esque game set in the not-too-distant future(2011-2025 AD). You join an army and write stories about your life in that army during World War III. The stories will be rated by the staff and the money is placed in the army's treasury. The money is used to buy weapons for your army and you can use them in stories. The staff consists of Osric Ziggy455 El Zilcho Rucke Jean Capel RULES 1. No flaming. If you don't like it, don't flame others. Everyone is at different levels of writing ability. We don't judge. 2. Respect all forum rules. 3. You cannot use weapons in your stories if your army doesn't own it 4. Any questions can be sent to any of the moderating team via PM 5. We will add a new faction every so often, usually when one is fully occupied 6. Stories cannot be in script format. Quality and length will play major roles in rating. 7. There are bonuses for a higher story count. 8. The basic story outline must be followed; after that, it's all up to you. RULE 3 - We are lenient on this one, but still, you can't use ridiculous weapony just yet. Should you use a weapon momentarily or only once, that is fine. But recurring use of a weapon you don't own is not. RULE 7 - Do not abuse this. Spamming terrible, rushed stories will not be accepted, nor will bonus' be handed out. Every five stories earns a bonus $100 Every ten stories earns a free weapon under $400 Twenty stories total awards a free vehicle under $2000(VEHICLES COMING SOON!)

Thanks a lot to Oscric, he's done a smashing job. And cheers to all who put up with the annoying hype. Enjoy...

Build Up Your Army Posted June 10, 2009 Author Share Posted June 10, 2009 Oh yes, almost forgot. I'll update the first post too; You can write for two factions. This is because, in order to get collaborations and working storylines, more activity and even story tie ins would be engineered through the two faction idea. So, if you want some complicated sub plots and crossovers, you can still keep it within your own work if that's what you want. I'll see how it goes; if the two faction idea is a success, it'll be here to stay. PS: Thanks flicko.

Osric Posted June 10, 2009 Share Posted June 10, 2009 I'll begin writing my Novaya Russia stories either tonight or tomorrow. For now I will stay in Novaya Russia and maybe join NATO later. Right now, I want to focus more on my Russia stories. Anybody who wants to join the staff can PM me or El Zilcho. Glad to know you guys are joining. Don't worry Chunk, the IRA will be added soon.

El Zilcho Posted June 10, 2009 Share Posted June 10, 2009 My stories will revolve around the Zharov Party first and foremost, later on I may join NATO. The reason Brazil is in there is it will be the first country to become embroiled the WWIII, as it will also spread to South America. I've got to update the first post too.

Omnia sunt Communia Posted June 10, 2009 Share Posted June 10, 2009 (edited) Why does it say "Gang Member" underneath the faction's name? Since when was NATO, China, Israel etc. a gang? Also a Kukri and "Gurkha Blade" are the same thing, plus I don't see why the Iraeli army would wield them, they're generally considered a Nepalese weapon. The People's Republic of China don't use Heckler & Koch G36s, as far as I'm aware, their standard assault rifle in the QBZ-95. Novaya Russia would probably use the AK-74M, as it is the standard rifle for the Russian Federation Ground Forces. You also mispelt the Galil Rifle, you missed out the L at the end.

I'll get on the gang member issue straight away! As for Khukri and Ghurka Blade, I didn't do the weapons, but I thought they were separate. I'll have a quick look.

Osric Posted June 10, 2009 Share Posted June 10, 2009 (edited) I thought the Gurkha and Kukri were seperate. Sorry. I changed Ghurka to Switchblade, addressed the gang issue, and added the l to Galil Rifle, and I think we're good. Who knows, give it a chance, you might like it! I'm sure you'll find a faction you'll like.

Do you get $2,500 of the 5 G's? Because I know the stuff I need and you know the stuff you need, so we don't want to be speding each other's money. And whatever we both get for our individual stories can only be spent by ourselves... cool? So if I get $1000 for a story, you can't spend $800 of it, when I'm saving up for something and vica versa.
