Erm, normally I would just let the GM make all of the topics, but I needed to check and see if the entire forum was password restricted - in which case, I don't know what the hell caused it. I didn't set a password for the RP and I double-checked that.

If this IS the case, I need another Admin to fix this. v_v;

I cant seem to be able to close or pin any important topics. Hmmm.

Oh and on a side note, you can join any faction EXCEPT The Ghosts of Dür. Invitation only. Another thing, if you join the Celestials or the Omega, you will be a password to use. And once a character has been accepted into either faction, you can create more characters, but they have to join that specific faction. this way, it keeps people from trying to "spy" on their enemies.

Hm. I don't know why it won't let you close or pin topics; you have moderator rights over the parent forum, along with the ability to do those things (I checked that they were available, but they're put on "yes" by default). But anyways, I just made you moderator of all the sub-forums, too, which should solve the problem (even if I think that's a fairly stupid solution).

Oh yes, I do believe I will have fun with this....

Back to the topic at hand, for those of you seeking entrance into my order, do not expect to be placed among the Seraphim instantly. One must prove their skill before claiming their reward...

Oh and by the way rtm, lemme know about the password for the sub-forum.

What? I take it Winds of whatever got taken down (finally!) and someone just decided he'd rather start another 'mech-based RP, eh?

Fun, fun, fun!

I'll see if I can squeeze out of myself a little character or something :P

EDIT/PS: Hmm, I just saw the 'mechs were based on Battletech lore, hmm? Not what I know the most, but still pretty cool. Can we use models that already exist, like those we see in the MechWarrior games?

That would be possible, Frank. But I'm not going to limit it to just that. Gundam and other mech pics are allowed to be used.

Ewww, Gundam?

Come on! A gundam is a powerhouse of ÜBER! And I mean the just-wrong-because-it's-overpowered-in-a-kiddy-way kind of uber. It's a frakking skyscraper, ffs. Compared to that, an Atlas is a puny cockroach! (That's the toughest most heavily armored and biggest BaltteMech, at least if you stick to canon)

Similarly, Armored Core style mechs are a little on the large scale, while Front Mission style stuff is a bit smaller than BattleTech, if I remember correctly.

Just mentioning here, some type of definite scale might be wanted. If those gundam "images" are to represent a certain look but the actual size of the thing matches with the rest (a gundam-looking type would actually be smaller-than-average 'mechs, because it's obviously more agile, thus lighter, thus smaller because you can't make metal that much thinner). Otherwise... well, whatever, I'm just really not a fan of mashing pot-style stories/RPs/whatever... y'know, those things where people just throw together a ton of ideas and worlds that don't even match, because obviously there are contradictions -- for instance, putting a Star Destroyer against a Galactica-class ship is really really stupid, because if the Star Destroyer can do shields, why can't the Galactica-class, and if the Galactica-class can have frikken' NUKES, why are the Star Destroyer's attacks so weak? The crews from either ships would so obviously use the techniques and technologies the others use. For instance, throwing Battlemechs and Gundams together, the BattleMechs wouldn't exist, because they'd obviously replace them with larger models that used the whats-it-called uber-particle engine from the gundams, and the gundams would probably say "hey, fuck HOLDING FRIGGEN SEPARATE GUNS, let's use modular omni-slots to mount weapons into our hull, like the BattleMechs, thereby saving tons on overall mass, gaining in versatility and power and efficiency, and generally just being more badass". And those are simply examples and I'm just getting started -- and will cut myself short right there because I know you don't want to hear about what I think would happen if those worlds collided.

The pictures are only meant for imagining what the mech would look like. I know Gundams are huge. I watch the shows, and I agree with you on the contradictions. But the pictures will only be used imaging purposes. You have to describe how large or small it is by using a scale.

Posted the beginning. Sorry about the initial attack, azedos. Just doing my job. There really is no reason to write out a prologue, because I'm sure everybody knows how it goes...and I'll most likely write it out later.

My soul, my soul! My soul for a working computer with windows XP! This is gunna be rough, but I'll give it what I got.
Remember that I have to write in fragments, so give me some time if one of my posts looks half finished.

Hopefully it'll be worth it...seeing as how the ark is so important, I think it's only reasonable that one of the big guy's is in charge, right?

Yea I'm still working on my own RP so if you want me to join you're going to have to wait for me to get time to make a character sheet.

Azedos, yes, one of the big bosses are in charge.

Frank and crimson, don't feel that you're being rushed. When you are ready, just post them in the Char Creation. Occasionally, I'll add on to the Ghosts. Some are not what they seem, after all.

The forums that are locked are faction-sensitive. If you get a character accepted by one of the three factions, then you will be given a password to view that forum.

Kewl. More GM-work getting everything synced, but then that must be fun too, presenting multiple things from multiple different perspectives (when the case happens that two factions' people are at the same place, for instance). Never had the occasion of doing that, myself.

So where are the accepted character sheets? I usually like to look at them to make sure I'm doing things right. Also, are the mechs in this RP all he clunky slow ones? I couldn't really find much information on it.
