The Battles of Some: Signup/OOC Topic (Late signups welcome!)

[wild_toa]

Yeah, in general avoid autohits, though there will be a few times where theyll be okay. Still better to leave it open though

[Ghid]

I may or may not have just PMed something to Wild that will start yet another unfortunate trend

You’ll probably hear about it soon

[BynariDistress]

Is that implying that things are about to heat up?

[Ghid]

Oh no it’s implying I’m about to get carpal tunnel

[BynariDistress]

Nice!

[wild_toa]

hey guys, Ive got something you may want to check out:

The Battles of Some Lore topic

I finally got a start to the lore topic, and its enough to drop a first post. I plan to expand with posts similar in size to this, though I will also answer any questions people have. General Rules and Features At a surface level, The Battles of Some may seem to be placed in a generic hard sci-fi universe, but I promise there are unique characteristics that set it apart from others. A big rule in my development of this world is that while choices I make don’t have to make sense in the lens of our real world or other sci-fis, they must be internally consistent. As such, I would like to lay out some of the choices made early on, which serve to govern further additions: Though they may be very close to it, or even identical, the primary race of this universe is not human. Additionally, t…

it’ll be linked in the first post both here and in the RP too

Hey I did that thing

Cold Embrace | The Battles of Some

This short story follows the backstory of Vitus Warthen, a character in the Boards RP The Battles of Some: Plains of Sivas. I highly recommend joining if you like to write. White designated two things in the Baronies’ Grand Argon Fighting Forces: those in the civilian class, and those so far above the common military ranks that their presence should be seen as the highest honor. But those of high renown were also sporting capes, medals, gold trims, and ivory finishes, and made the civilian class look rather plain in comparison. Yet a hardsuit was still a hardsuit, as Belos often said, and the importance it carried was not diminished by a lack of polish. Vitus knew the consequences of a hardsuit failure in the vacuum of space; the fogged-over visors of the fallen Blackvine troops had obs…

wild_toa approved, went through a couple revisions but I’m pretty satisfied with it for all of five seconds

expect this to compound over time

@MakutaOisli

You know what imma do now

You’re going to PM wild_toa about a story concept and hash out the details with him?

[BynariDistress]

I love it! Gets the creative juices flowing!!!

[DuneToa]

May have to do this at some point as well.

[wild_toa]

[BynariDistress]

[Ghid]

@wild_toa

not filled with a swarm of flying troop bays and vehicle carriers,

oh good I was worried there would be bad guy ships there

Wait, where’s the Ace post?

[wild_toa]

alright, post up! finally! Ive been really drained the past few days, so Im sorry it took basically half a week to get it out to you guys.

@DuneToa @MakutaOisli @BynariDistress please, for the love of god, try to find a way to not kill each other. I left the situation intentionally open and in a somewhat shocked manner to let you guys work from there.

also, dont worry about my apparent neglect for @NOTaHFfan, Ive been talking to him about this RP probably the most out of all of you right now, and have been somewhat GMing from the back row as such. Additionally, since he’s still basically stalling for time as of now, Ive mostly left him to do what he’s best at: wonderfully written posts that dont actually get much done if he doesent need it to

[BynariDistress]

Fair enough - game on!

[DuneToa]

@wild_toa

please, for the love of god, try to find a way to not kill each other.

Don’t worry. If anything, I can have Brenn miss in an epic fail.

[wild_toa]

Just want to let you all know that there is a lot of conversation going on across PMs right now with those involved with Rad and Bynaris last post, so if you would be interacting with that character Id suggest holding your post until Bynari and I can get some things worked out
@BynariDistress @MakutaOisli @DuneToa @Ghid

[MakutaOisli]

That’s so funny. I just posted.

[wild_toa]

Oh lol, I guess you beat me
