War of the Races.

Ask Wooly about that one, Blade, I'm not very experienced with war RPs.


Thank you Lady Nerevar, it wouldn't have been possible without all your help.

Thanks, but I'm not playing the Emperor :) That responsibility has been delegated to Josh. Maybe later.

In the Time line, where it says:

High Rock is more divided than ever, Wayrest, Daggerfall, and Orsinium declaring their own sovereign countries. The other city states are more or less in a loose confederation, but most of the country's military power lies in those three cities.


You don't mean they've broken away from the Empire do you? They've just broken away from "High Rock", and are no longer part of the singular province, but instead are three separate independent provinces?

They are more or less still with the Empire right now, but yes, they are no longer one unified "High Rock". They would subsequently go to war with each other, or try to do things diplomatically, whatever you would like to do as ruler of one of those three provinces. And if one is lacking a leader I might just take it up. I don't want to be solely in charge of the Nerevarine and Gaius (Dragon's Claw, or DC, if you would prefer) :) Thanks.

Maybe later...

Hahaha... I suppose only Wooly and myself would know what that means.

Anyway, I think each province/faction should have a general troop type/size and supply sheet. Darkom could you possibly come up with a rational sheet for each faction? If not I can. I just don't think each province should get 200,000,000 troops. Once your army is gone it's gone. You'll lose land.

I kinda thought we could make our own Faction Sheets :D I enjoy putting detail of equipment, numbers and role into my troops and think that would allow for the most creative space whilst ensuring everyone has the same rough idea of how to format it.

I say we use Immortal Bloods system.

http://www.imperial-library.info/maps/cyrodiillargelowrescr7.jpg

The Red dots can get 10-20,000

Pink can get 5-10,000

White can get 2,500 to 5,000/

Then you can raise militia. I just think that is a good system to use.

I will draw something up for the troop sheets,


We have a problem, and we can't start the RP yet until it is resolved.

Who is taking the Imperial army?

That's true. I expect Darkom or Josh will. But there won't be any cross characters in the rp. I don't wanna see players with a character in the Elven alliance and players working in the empire.
It just wont do...

Exactly.
I think everyone should be in one faction.
I'll take the Ra Gada.
Blademaster will take the Bretons
Lord Dren with the Elves.
Darkom- ?

BTW My massive sheet is being built.

That still leaves both beast races and Skyrim. If your character isn't in a position of power, consider taking one of those factions, people.

And just to let you know, I have two characters:

The Nerevarine

and

Gaius Julius, commander of the Dragon's Claw

So I'll be in pretty much full command of Morrowind, and then the elite branch of the Imperial army. Josh can take the rest of the Imperial army, and then we just need to fill a few spots.

Oh, and on the cross characters thing, so long as all your characters are in the same alliance it should be fine. Like I have an Imperial and a Morrowind character. But don't, for example, make a House Telvanni and a House Dres character, as they will be in conflict. Just don't put yourself on both sides of a likely battle, please :)



EDIT: That has been covered in the sign up thread, but just to clarify: either me, Wooly, or Dren, and you might want to go ahead and send it to Josh as well. Thanks.

Darkom answered.

Just send it to either Darkom, myself, or Wooly. And if you want, go ahead and send it to Josh.

I should have sent it to one of you guys instead of Josh, no offense to him, he just isn't on at the moment so now I'll have to wait for his answer.

Why not just send it to either Wooly, Darkom, or myself? We're all one I believe...

YOU ARE!? :blink: :ahhh: IT EXPLAINS ALL!!

The only problem is that I can't retrieve the copy of my sheet I sent him, I'll keep trying to find it. If not I shall be forced to wait for Josh.

Well, son of a [censored], I can't find it. And I don't know how to retrieve it if it can be done. I guess I'll just wait for Josh.

I'll ask Wooly and Darkom what they think. This does seem most plausible though. For now, go ahead and get a sheet ready. After we review it, if we like it, we'll have every political figurehead make a sheet of their own.

Should I take a larger force, because I am only like the Lieutenant of the Army of Wayrest, so do I need to take a larger role?

And yes, my character will be mainly political, so that is all bueno.

Hmm...I will also take the forces of Elsweyr if nobody has already claimed the position. ^_^

Elite, would your character like to be in co-leadership with my mages group based in Wayrest (Order of the Purple Flame :D ) which is basically a group that teaches and trains war mages and battlemages (it does devote time to scholarly studies though) to serve Elysana and her armies? I say co leader just because I have my wizard secondary character who founded the Order but you could be his protegee?

EB, are High Rock and Elsweyr allies? We're trying to keep our players within one alliance. For example, players can have a character in the UNEE and have one fighting for Morrowind and another fighting for the Empire.

Anyway, considering your only a liutenent, and from what I know being in the Guard, they only command a Company sized element. However, given that this is the TES universe, I believe battalion sized is within reason. The populations in High Rock, rank of your character, amount of members...

I'll say anything along the lines of 2 or 3 thousand troops. May seem like alot but in the last census done by wayrest in 3E 423, or something like that, there were around 100,000 people in Wayrest alone. I think 2.5k troops is within reason.

Yes, they are, but Wooly just said to change my faction to Army of Wayrest so I guess I got a little confused.

Are his 2500 men gonna count against my limit of 20000 (not that I'm close....)? Are you gonna be apart of the army itself, or your own branch of the military like a special ops kind thing?

I think I am going to lessen my force and strengthen it up, and I can be a special ops thing. It's more my style, as I don't like commanding huge armies. Well, sometimes I do, but I would rather it be a secondary character.

So, should I take Elsweyr?
