This RP will take place from 2060 to 2077. Read the spoiler things, they will help you greatly
------------------------------
Factions:

Spoiler
The German Republic: Far from a republic, it is ruled by a man named Fredrich Amsel. They're army has more than 500,000 men. They control modern day Germany, Czechoslovakia, Austria, Switzerland, Liechtenstein, Denmark, and the Holland area (Netherlands, Luxembourg, Brussels). They are currently waging a war against Russia, France, the US, China, UK, and Canada. They have Bolt action rifles (will be shown in picture section below.) They also have tanks, some choppers (Huey's only), and planes (no jets, those a limited to US, and China). THIS IS THE FACTION YOU ARE TO PLAY! YOU CANNOT PLAY ANY OF THE OTHER ONES!


Spoiler
The United Kingdom: They are one of the most mightest countries in the world. They have India, Egypt, Southern Africa (Zimbabwe, South Africa, Lesotho, Swaziland, Namibia, Botswana, Mozambique, and Madagascar). They have 100,000 men total in their army. They have Enfield Bolt Action Rifles. They have Huey transport choppers and Cobra attack choppers. They also have Typhoon fighter jets. They dominate the air against the Germans, the Chinese, and the African Coalition. They are at war with the Germans, the Chinese, and the African Coalition.


Spoiler
United States: They are the land of the free and the home of the brave. They have Alaska, Continental US, Hawaii, The Virgin Islands. They have a total of 200,000 men. They have FN-FAL's (Look them up if you don't know what that is). They have Huey choppers that are Transport that double as assault choppers (The Huey assault choppers have rocket launchers mounted on the side and Miniguns on the area where the men are). They also have F-18 and F-16 jets. They are against the Germans, the Chinese.


Those are the Three Major Factions. I will post more when more appear

I was merely hinting to the fact that with the tiniest bit of research on his part, he could have easily deduced that it was indeed, before the great war.

Well...Considering I seem to have a problem keeping up with the one I am in, probably no. But I'm sure if I just used an ounce of effort, I could easily keep up, so I'll considerate it.

I have a feeling this won't last long, considering the fact you created two RPs before and have canceled them.

@You cannot think of a name.

It is considered bad forum etiquette to begin and then drop several RPs in a row. All those other RPers invested themselves in "the game" and you then walked away from it.

Try to stick with one idea for a while and flesh it out. The effort will pay off ;)

A quick couple questions, what is our side arm? Standard issue for the U.S military at this is N99 10mm Pistol, so what is Germany's?

The armor, are you sure it would be like that? Or keeping up with Fallout's lore, some type of combat armor.

Energy weapons, while not massed produced, were being brought into production, will we ever see any?

Fuel was a very valuable resource at this point, alternative sources of energy were being developed. So I would suspect that military vehicles would be limited, and that maybe proto-type vehicles were being developed.

Power armor would be a big turning point in the war, will we ever see that?

Lastly, and most important, why the hell are we all Riflemen? With bolt-action rifles?

Food for thought.

Yah really, this is intersting but what teh hell is with the WWII gear in 2060, I mean really, they have 500,000 in their army in a world of over population and we are using Kar98 bolt action rifles, from 1942, could we not at least use teh Gewehr 43.

While I may not have the most faith that this will last and I have a feeling that if I make a character sheet it will just go to waste. It sounds interesting. so if you actually think you can stick with this RP I'll join no matter what.

I was getting around to change it, jesus.

Power Armor is limited to US only.

The armor is what you get.

Energy Weapons...maybe....:)

Alternate Fuel

I was going to post the side arm now.

Im changing the Rifle to the Gewher 43.

Okay, but are you sure you want everyone to be a Rifleman? I take it that your going to be the leader, but what about the Grenadier, Automatic Rifleman(like a SAW), a medic, etc.

This is very true, trust me when I first started out I did the same thing and got a ton of hate from some other RPers because of it. But I have improved drastically now. :D

Okay, Yttrium has convinced me to add classes:

Grenadier Class:
http://operatorchan.org/k/arch/src/k71755_German%20WW2%20MP-44%20Erstes%20Sturmgewehr%2044%20in%20Kaliber.jpg
http://www.militaryfactory.com/smallarms/imgs/panzerfaust-60.jpg
This class has the Luger Parabellum, a backpack, and Stick Grenades. And of course, the armor

Heavy Machine Gunner:

http://world.guns.ru/userfiles/images/handguns/germany/hg68/1287734278.jpg
They have the armor, the backpack, stick grenades, and spare ammo

Medic:

http://www.norwegianwiking.be/pictures/ww2%20militaria/medic_bag.jpg
http://www.oakleafmilitaria.com/images/0812h6-1.jpg
They have the Luger, the backpack, and the Stick grenade. The armor, but the medic helmet replaces the helmet

I will assign you these, unless you ask me.

Before you start this RP, I want to present some research I've done, courtesy of Fallout wiki. Note: I am assuming you are following Fallout mythology.

Based on your guidelines for the RP, there are several pre-War firearm manufacturers in and around Germany in the setting timeline.

German Army
PPK12 Gauss pistol
M72 Gauss rifle

Rheinmetall AG, Germany
Vindicator minigun
9mm Machine Pistol

Heckler & Koch, Germany
MP9 10mm SMG
L30 Gatling laser
CAWS
P90c
G11 and E variant

Donaustahl GmbH, Germany
9mm ammo

Glock, Austria
Glock 86 Plasma Pistol

And that’s just around Germany. There’s Beretta(Italy), FN Herstal(Belgium), Franchi(Italy), and SIG-Sauer(Switzerland and Germany) in the region.

The point I’m trying to make is that German soldiers would have access to all the weapons these companies manufactured; the wiki also states that the German army was equipped with Gauss weaponry. So, assuming you are sticking to Fallout lore, it doesn’t make sense that we would be limited to WWII-era weapons. Unless, you are going to state how all the advanced weapons were somehow destroyed, leaving only the antiques. Even then, it would not seem believable, as you can find 100-year old firearms and ammo ingame that survived the nuclear finale (i.e. the service rifle and "This Machine", which I'm fairly sure is the M1 Garand).

I also have concerns regarding the guidelines you set; again, I am assuming you are following Fallout lore. It does not make sense that the UK is “one of the mightiest countries in the world”, because the UK was part of the European Commonwealth, which is structured like the EU but functioned like the US. So, the UK would be similar to a US state rather than Imperial Britain; they would not have Egypt and India. There are other things as well, such as why the US would use the imported FN FAL when they had the homegrown Service Rifle.

Overall point: if you are going to RP this setting, please try to follow Fallout mythology.

Unless, you are creating an alternate reality of the Fallout universe. Then, please disregard the previous entry. ^_^

It's alternate. In this fallout history, only the Prime countries get all the goodies (Gauss things, lasers, etc etc etc)

UK is basically its own country, as is Germany, since Germany basically has most of the EC in its conquered list.
