Japanese War Game

(1/7) > >>

Tadanori Oyama:
Okay, so some of my more out there ideas haven't really taken root. How about this one:

Name-
The Warring States War Game.

System-
GURPS 4th Edition. 75 point characters.

Theme-
Wartime mentality among nobles and commoners.
The "realities" of war.
Single "heroes" being totally awesome within an army.
 
Goals-
Having fun.
Conquering land.
Gaining followers.
Ruling the world (Japan).

Style-
Play by Post. Hince the thread in the PbP section.


Play a noble. Or a singular foot soldier. Or a one in a million peasant. The goal is survival.

I would love to play this is I only had the book...

Maze:
Could it be done in a simple-ass system? Please? I really don't want to be picking abilities from a book, nor do I have GURPS.

Tadanori Oyama:
Alright, simple system is fine with me.

We'll use Wushu, which I enjoy. http://www.bayn.org/wushu/freebies.html

It's a simple system that encourages creative description and works well within the forum setting.

So, no character stat generation, all you have to do is give me the outline for your character.

For character background I suggest everyone pick a general role. You can be a ruler, a fighter, a peasant, whatever you want. Players are perfectly able to get into conflict with each other as well as GM controlled events so this game will likely become dynamic and, if we get enough people, more player driven.

Maze:
Alright, make a character Dragonshaos, I'll work under you as a right hand or something.
