I'm working on something, incidentally, yes. In the works. Set in 100 ABY. A Force Cold War, so to speak.

Right now I am unable to find the time to be in the RPG. I am hoping that my schedule will change so I can do so in the future.

I would be interested in partcipating if things don't get too hectic or if one of the others RPG's I'm involved in fall through.

The cold war would be interesting in a Force user perspectice, but would we be talking a Spain/England or KGB/CIA type cold war with info gathering missions, sneaking in and fighting out type scenarios, or one that starts as an on the brink, as the flood gates open, Germany/Poland/Russia conflict scenario? Or of course something else entirely.

It'd be all of those, quite easily. Skirmishes between each other, spying missions, resource deprivation (blowing stuff up tongue , and so forth. A few outright proxy wars, as well.

The concept is that after the Second Galactic Civil War, the other governments of the Galaxy realise the worth of Force users, creating their own groups, or co-opting existing ones. A Confederacy-type government based around Sluis Van, Eriadu and Sullust would take us on, providing our group with a set amount of ships and the like - as it's geographically nearby.

For example, each group would have access to one Destroyer-type, one Frigate-type, one Scout-type, and one Fighter-type, with some governments providing additional Force User-specialised fighters.

With us - just to note, I'm using a Rimma Confederacy as an example, I can provide other government groups in the cartography area - we'd have access to...

1. Centax-class heavy frigates - Masters only
2. Quasar Fire-class cruiser-carriers - First Tier Defenders
3. Jade Shadow-type armed yachts - Second Tier Defenders
4. Cutlass-class fighters - Apprentices
5. An as-of-yet undecided fighter - All

Only the Masters would have access to 1, etc. The idea is, if we choose to move from a training-RPG, we're able to leap into a full-blown RPG with the vessel points. So it's designed to be a slow-paced RPG, and then speed up when and if we choose to.

Thoughts?

Oh, and the Force system would be based on the Tournaments, with apprentices becoming Defenders when they learn all the powers of their type, with points given for completed objectives by their Masters.

A Jensaarai GM would be necessary, as I'd be acting as Imperial Knights GM and the overall GM if need be.

It's a sandbox game. Just run subplots by the main GM, who approves lazily, and we move along. Thoughts?

I'm still here, not many things left that make me want to post around these parts anymore. Save for this group. frustrated

Since Sabith and Sinrebirth are mods on the offsite there is not much needed of me as it is.

Yes, we could have a small codix so to speak of generic mission types if there is a lag or a GM group is stumped for another mission for their students. Some ideas for which could be taken or warped from some of the games like the Jedi Knight and Dark Forces series, Alias series (a bit rarer on applicable types), or whatever to form a base from which the uber GM could 'dole out' as needed to the seperate groups.

Also I like the Jensaari's starting area, highly viable, with a navy and tech base wise highly self sufficiant. Not to mention have Clakdor VII gives a good math and musical variety to the government.

How would the Witches fit into a tech based rpg? The majority of them would be out due to them not knowing tech as well as the next player if done right.

Most likely, for now, yes.

Leaf: The Nightsisters would be sponsored by a nearby government as an asset, thus having access to tech, but the tech aspect is going to be played down after a fashion. So the Corporate Sector would probably sponsor the Nightsisters, or Loronar.

sounds instrusting so far? I have a question should we have this established before the hidden orders where actually formed? It would make a great origin story line I thinks....

Interesting concept. A Hidden Order, within the Jensaarai and Dathomiri Witches, dedicated to keeping peace in the galaxy - we could have them fall out for the Sith-Imperial War, and the Order founded during the RPG around 100 ABY as an interesting storyline for us all. Good idea, Sabith.

We could found ourselves as an opposite to the Jedi Order, which will be made to appear evil by the general plot concept - by all the governments stealing Force sensitive children from their homes to make their own Force Orders.

Minor Announcement

I have called a meeting between the various Force factions of the SWC and EUC to discuss an RPG concept in the RPF. For those of you who are largely unaware of this, don't worry too much for now, but for those who are, I've decided the best way to act is to send a single representative to what I've termed the 'High Council' meeting, here in the EUC, so we can get things moving, rather than me sending dozens of PM's and getting nowhere for weeks on end.

Please announce who you are representing, when you arrive.
