Hey, Squid, have you got a system worked out to resolve combats between player characters/vessels?

Nothing specific, but check the OP in the RP thread.

So what's gonna happen now? I've got nothing to post at the moment.

Hopefully I can get worked into the story. Ive been left out!

EDIT: lol never mind

Don't worry, I'm sure we can radio you a message asking for backup and offering a reasonable part of the bounty for these pirates.

So, is this thread going to die?

Ill post something.

Um, is it to late for a new face to come in? I'm basically a total noob when it comes to RP.

It's fine for someone new to join an RP, however no-one's posted on this one for ages, and I reckon it's dead. If you want a 40k-based RPG, come down to The Box. It's a forum run by me and a few others from dakka for RPGs, and we'd be more than happy to teach you how to roleplay well.

Ok thanks P_gray99

Solid plug

Yeah, well... You know what MrMerlin has taught us all about shameless advertising...

Ugh I killed it.

No. The bandwagon effect killed it. Too many people were joining the jaws of death and then went to the box, and this kind of got ignored by too many people. That's what killed it.

Well read the main thread and immediatly gained interest. So if its not too late i`ll submit a CS.

Name: Alleyiana S. Kipling

Rank: Captain/ Prototype Airship Designer

Ship name: Die schwarze Perle (The Black Jewel)

Crew: 75

Ship Description: A large ship of the line, Die schwarze Perle is a sight to see. Flying by revolutionary airship technology, that reduces the ships need for balloons to zero, it uses a prototype spinning propeller pointed down. This is one of the first developed and requires alot to run along with very slow speeds. But its trade off is the use of no balloons, except a emergency one, and a bigger capacity for cargo and weapons. It is equip with 24 cannons, 8 on top deck, 12 on main deck, and 4 on bottom deck. It travels at speeds of 20knots (assuming that this is a relatively slow speed), and can carry enough food and ammunition to stay in the air for a month. But it doesnt serve as a attack ship, but as a trader. Its large size allows it to carry many large orders across the countries, and its large supplies allows it to get them their without stop.

Character Desc: A rather odd person, Alleyiana (Pronounced how its spelled), was born into a royal german family. She was raised like a woman, but took to the airship mechanics at an older age. By the time she graduated from tech school, she was already signed up to serve in the German Airforce. She was granted a higher role due to her families ties and her love of airships, in the role of a prototype developer of airship technology. She worked for several years on that until she, and several colleges, developed a airship that required no balloon. She then designed a ship and had the navy produce it. It came out to be the Die schwarze Perle. After its production the German Airforce put her in charge of it. She has since broken off the German Airforce and now runs to the highest bidder.

If anything seems op, just tell me and I will edit and make better.

It seems like the thread died, but if there's enough interest in it I suppose it could be revived...
If anyone else is interested, I'll PM everyone who was origionally going to be part of it, see if we can bring it back to life.

Im up for a revival.

Yeah, why not I guess.

I`m fully up for reviving it. If the GM`s on board, i`m sure i can get a few friends in here to get it rolling again. If the GM isnt on board, which I highly doubt, then we`ll either end it or choose a new GM. That sound fair?

however fun this may be to revive I wouldnt at the moment, there is far to much going on in this forum for our RPers to support it openly

Is there?Most RPs seem eerily quite.

I'm up for the revive.
Let sails hit wind, gentlemen!

Ay Ay, Cap'n!
Looks like there should be enough of us, especially if a few more turn up.
