Welcome to Detroit.

It has been six months since the Chicago Convention and much has changed in the wasteland.

-The Dekker Rebellion has become the Dekker Republic, gaining its freedom and convincing the Brotherhood to take away their road blocks in exchange for the man who started the rebellion, Robert Down, the be imprisoned in maximum security for what the Brotherhood considers crimes.

-Gale has convinced the Brotherhood to take away roadblocks in exchange for the nightkin named Captain to be escorted from their town after some tension that almost broke out into fighting.

-The Red Stingers continue to supply the Dekker Republic with weapons and ammunition to help protect their town and expand their strength.

-Gale has formed an alliance with Spring and sent Yao Gui trainers to Spring. They have also wiped out the Seizures, took their base and used it like it was used before the war, as a factory, made a deal with the Brotherhood to not attack each other, to many citizens' dismay, and are no escorting prisoners from Clinto to Champion to fight in arenas for entertainment.

-Spring made a deal with the Communist Republic of Detroit for vehicles, they also made deals with Gale for Yao Gaui trainers and weapons, and they made deals with Talon Company for men and equipment.

Here is the first convention- http://www.gamesas.com/topic/1369455-chicago-convention-a-fan-made-mid-western-faction-convention/

Rules-
-Do NOT formally declare war unless both factions are already at war (ex: Brotherhood and Mutant Liberation Army) or both sides agree.
-Do NOT make up ridiculous stuff such as coming across a warehouse with millions of laser rifles, keep it realistic.
-Grammar may be improper so long that it is readable.
-Do NOT feel obligated to go on very often, coming in once every one to two days and responding to everything involving you is fine.

Let the games begin.

OOC: I'm pretty sure that I refused all help from the BOS and learned they were supplying the other gangs of Spring.

Gale also did not become allies with them, they just made an agreement to not attack each other.

you also left the weapons factory out.

Lord Nathan Rathbone - The New Kingdom

A rather handsome man with shoulder length dark hair and a sharp well trimmed goatee enters the room. He is wearing a suit of combat armor with an unbuttoned black trenchcoat. He is being flanked by a pair of men wearing metal armor and carrying R91 assault rifles.

Lord Rathbone strides over to his assigned seat and waits for one of his guards to pull it out for him before sitting down.

"Lord Nathan Rathbone, 6th in Line for the Crown of The New Kingdom. Three of my family have perished since the last convention. My cousin Percy was cut down on the street by muggers and two of my older brothers succumbed from eating poisoned potatoes.", he says with a wicked grin.

"Our monarchy is suffering from civil unrest and food shortages any aid to our region would be most appreciated."

Max Fightmaster-Spring

*A shockingly handsome man enters, not as heavily armed as before but what instead had several dozen innovative hidden weapons*

Riiiigggghhtttt. Accident. Give it up Rathbone. I know assassinations as well as I know the sound a man makes as he is stabbed in the back. I don't think your fooling anyone.

Lord Nathan Rathbone - The New Kingdom

Lord Rathbone smiles coyly. "I had nothing to do with their untimely deaths, of that I can assure you. I have alibi's for each accident."

Max Fightmaster-Spring

*Rolls his eyes*
And I had alibi's when I killed 27 people in Vendetta with my cane sword revolver. Doesn't mean I didn't do it.
Anyway, now that some of the violence -Outward violence anyway- is ending many of our gangs have become mercenaries. We could help with your civil unrest issues. For a cost. And you have to follow every word in thier contract otherwise thier services become null and void.

*Whips out suitcase*

Oops, this is the one with my pistols.

*Throws pistol, where it knocks out a waiter and discharges killing another one*

Here's the one with the contracts!

*Puts large suitcase with many papers on table*

Ooc: we are at champion right?
James Wilson- Gale

*James enters the room; he is wearing a sling over his left arm walking in he takes a seat. He is only with one guard this time but is wearing reinforced combat armour.*

“Hello everyone, Gale is doing fairly well since the last convention, the weapons factory is running and we are starting to make more money but three days ago the some clinto’s bastards decided to attack the factory… we are getting tired of this war and wish to end it.”

Speak of which Miss Pearson, we have a few the clinto’s who didn’t die in attack downstairs, include the [censored] who shot me,
you can have them free of charge, I wanna see that [censored] bleed.


Hello again Rathbone, may I point out whilst you personally have an Alibi it does not mean you didn't hire or have someone else doing the deed. I know that's what i would do if i wanted to kill a Lord or governor as we have in Gale.

But regardless your kingdom is in need of help; we shall send some food and several rifles that we got from the red hands. If we could possible get some help finally taking out these Clinto’s bastards we may be-able to help you more.

OOC: Sorry, that is what I had picked up from what I read in the last convention.


OOC: No, we're in Detroit. I thought it would be a more appropriate place for a convention then a battle arena in Champion. I think that would be better for the next one. Oh and I'm switching from the Dekker Republic to the Pitt Empire

Ishmael Ashur- Emperor of the Pitt
*Ashur walks in with his defaced, rusted power armor and takes a seat at the head of the table. As he looks around he glares into the eyes of everybody present as if he was sizing them up for coffins.*

Hello, I am Ishmael Ashur, Lord of the Pitt. You may, or may not, have heard of my mighty empire.

We are the only place in the east to manufactor weapons and bullets. We are also in possession of a vaccine that makes people incredibly resistant to radiation.

I will trade this vaccine in exchange for allies against the Marauders, a group of raiders and tribals who have united together, raiding caravans and causing havoc throughout what used to be eastern Ohio.

Alexander Smith and Mr Winter- The Red Hands

Alexander smith walks into the room a briefcase by his side he sets it delicately on the table it opens a screen with a flat green line is visible the line moves “Good Day all I’m Afraid Complications came at the last moment and so you will have to wait until the next convention to meet me in person, anyway Mr. Wilson the Red Hands Are willing to lend a hand in your extermination of Clinto you name an offer and I’ll look it over” The Unmistakeable voice of Mr. Winter emanates from the briefcase.

David Meet-The Radiation

David entered the room, still thinking about the events of the past convention, most prominently, the deal the Brotherhood struck with the two merc organisations. The Brotherhood obviously used this as an indirect way to attack The Radiation. Entering the conference room, at his side a ghoul holding a shotgun in tow, David sat down, sizing up the smoothskin delegates.

"Ishmael Ashur, your unification of The Pitt is quite well known," said David with a cracked smile. David was saddened by his strong opposition to radiation, but from what he had heard, there evolution had been less than successful. "The Radiation would be glad to help with an attack against The Marauders, but instead of an anti-radiation vaccine, we would accept weapons and ammunition in trade."

"Ah, Mr Winter, I'm not sure if you can see me, but I feel that I should introduce the man next to me," said David, gesturing to the silent ghoul. "This is Mot, he was captured by the Brotherhood of Steel where they cut out his tongue. He's not alone. There are hundreds of ghouls who have suffered at the hands of these Brotherhood fascists and by killing them for what seems like sport, I ask why?"

Ishmael Ashur- Emperor of the Pitt
I'm suprised people from a whole other region has heard of the Pitt.

I thank-you for your assistance. We will send guns and bullets to the location of choosing.

Max Fightmaster-Spring

How large a caliber can you make? In other words: can you make things like recoiless rifles or those handy anti-aircraft guns that fire big bullets at sevaral hundred rounds a minute? We're trying to turn our trucks into Technicals, which are armoured makeshift attack vehicles that were especially common in the Middle East and Africa.
We had a [censored]-load of school or college textbooks survive.

Ishmael Ashur- Emperor of the Pitt
Likely, we have never tried.

I am not sure where those lands are but I believe they are east of this land. Am I correct?

Max Fightmaster-Spring

It would be great if you could. That'll show those damn dirty *ahem* We'll help with those raiders, or any others you might need.

Yeah. There east of here alright. WAY east.

OOC: Shouldn't Ashur know at least where Africa and Middle East are? He was a member of the Brotherhood. Couldn't they find a map or globe or something?

Ishmael Ashur- Emperor of the Pitt
Excellent.
I look forward to allying myself with such respectable organizations such as yourself and the Radiation.

The only factions we've come across here in the east are raiders and scavengers.

Yes, of course. My apologize. It has been a long time since I've been to school and there have been far more pressing subjects to think of.

OOC: Managed to answer with the character.

OOC: Slow start, huh?

*eyes full of concern*
Do you need one of my cane sword revolvers to get around?

By "end it" do you mean peacefully or *takes out oversized pistol and dramatically cocks it* Permanently?

Mr. Winter-The Red Hands
"Ah Mr. Meet make an offer and I might change my business contract from partnership with the Brotherhood to partnership with The Radiation" Mr. Winter slid smoothly.

David Meet-The Radiaton

"Well first, refrain from killing ghouls, but you shall receive some leniency when it comes to the ferals. Still, I don't want you going out of your way to hunt them down. Also, if you can bring us some humans from some settlements, we'll pay you well," said David, revealing a devilish grin.

OOC: I'm loving this convention, Sebor. Having a lot of fun as The Radiation.

James wilson- Gale

Permanently, this war with the clinto has gone on long enough, the Governor has tasked me to end it once and for [censored] all.

To do this there are two task we must do, cripple their Leadership and destory their Army, My talk with Mr smith gave me a couple of ideas of how to do competle these tasks...

although what's a Cane sword Revolver? although i do not think I need one.

OOC: incase anyone is wondering "the governor" is basically the leader of Gale (his title will change later on.)


Hello Lord ashur, Gale is willing to help you with your fight with the Marauder However we also have our own problem with the town of clinto up the road, we are currently planning to wipe them out. permantley.

"if you could possible send troops to help within the battle with clinto's army we are willing to return the favour when you attack the Marauders and with clintos gained rescoures we may also be-able to send food supplys. However If you are unable to send troops we are willing to accept we weapons and ammunition in trade like Radiation



Yes, when we held him, I dicuss with Mr smith some idea's on how to finally take them out. I would the red hands to first take out clinto's current leader, Edward Dunn. Once that is done I want you to protect a clinto called Alex sander alive, he shall be come clinto's new leader and surrender to us.

As you may known Dunn is a slaver, his manison is no doudty filled with Many treasures the red hands may have as a reward, along with 1000 caps from us.

Ishmael Ashur- Emperor of the Pitt
You are mercenaries, correct?

Independant armies are usually looked on as hostile because they are not trustworthy, such as those Talon Company mercs that had many bases in land that is now mine, but I will make an exception for you if you will never attack the Pitt and help us take out the Marauders. We will also give you large sums of weapons, ammo, and a position within our land.


OOC: Thanks, the Radiation is a very interesting faction to try and use to make deals with people considering they want to enslave and mutate the human race. I thought the Dekker Rebllion/Republic was alright but I am having a lot more fun as the Pitt.


*Looks at map of the Midwest on the wall and finds Gale*
I would like to help but I'm sorry, Gale is much to far from my territory and there are the Marauders in the way.

If the Radiation can protect a giant caravan through the Marauders' territory bringing both the things we promised them and weapons and ammo for Gale we will give them extra.

So you're going to use assassination to get rid of a competint leader and then put a new one in power to just surrender to you? Good move.

That is how you win a war.

I had to do that to a tribe called the Spearhawks, they relied heavily on the word of their elder and my men arranged an accident for him. After that their next oldest member, a spy and an old friend of mine, took over and convinced the people that working for the Pitt would benefit them. It is why I own northeastern West Virginia now.

Mr. Winter- The Red Hands
"Of course mr. Meet just sign the contract" Alexander slid Across a contract "And we will stop attacking the civillised Ghouls"

Mr. Winter-The Red hands
"Mr. wilson it is a pleasure doing business with you alexander." Alexander slid across a contract "You know what to do mr. Wilson and oh do you mind if we give captured clinto soldiers to the Radiation two birds with one stone"
Mr. Winter- The Red Hands
"Of course Mr ashur Alexander, give our new friend Mr. ashur a contract" Alexander slid across a contract "It is a pleasure doing business with all you fine Gentlemen I lokk forward to meeting you all in person".

James wilson- Gale

*signs contact* here is a map of Clinto with both Dunn's and Sanders house marked out., Sanders will be-able to help you plan the attack and hide equipment and men until so.

As for handling over soldiers, sure but only the Soliders. Anyone else is to left alone, they shall become prouded cizitens of "sanders" or whatever we rename the town plus No offenive to Radiation but we wouldn't hand women and children over to be some freaks experiment, Ghoul or not.

... hmmm acttually if you capture any clinto officers, don't drag them off we may want to speak to them .

Mr. Winter-The Red Hands
"of course Mr. Wilson only the soldiers perfectly understandable" Alexander placed the contracts inside the briefcase, Mr. winter continued "Oh and mr. wilson compliments of the company accept a dowry of 20 35. revolvers we stumbled across an old gun store The delievery is being made as we speak now if you will excuse me I have other business contracts to attend to" Mr. Winter said calmly.
