Civil War Roleplay - Garry's Mod

Okay, well it looks like this will be done, we are getting content and whether we make our own gamemode or use an existing, one, is up to you. Partially. Here's some pictures.

[IMG]http://filesmelt.com/dl/csa_infantry_one_render.jpg[/IMG] Here's the rosters, ranks and such will be determined ICly. Rank will be based ICly. We support actually [b]roleplaying[/b] your way into things. Opposed to having to sign up for shit on forums, you will have to earn it ingame. Although for admin and such you will probably have to apply.

If you could get the content, then maybe. Could you give us a little backstory to it and how the roleplay would flow long-term?

Just look up history of the civil war. I think it would be cool, but it wouldn't all be huge battles and such. Mostly traveling, camping etc. Then events would be the large battles and such

That'd be pretty nice, the elements of survival and war mixed together with Civil War times would be unique.

Make it about some of the un-spoken campaigns like California, Arizona, Neveda, and Utah.

For some reason Miltary RP brings childs "Because itz leik cool of doody" And you will be left soon with those commando wana be chars. Under the names John Price and John Mactivaish.

[QUOTE=DeveloperConsol;30351131]No.[/QUOTE] See for yourself.

I like this idea. I like this idea a LOT.

If done correctly it could work out well. Although, is there really any good content for it?

You just get trolls like sniper crowbar.

[QUOTE=LauScript;30408632]No but the majority of the 160$ you gave me would go for content i'm assuming.[/QUOTE] Correction: 170$ Unless you've already spent 10$.

[QUOTE=Jocken300;30410058]Whatever happened to StarFleet, anyway? Wasn't it resurrected using Tiramisu a while ago?[/QUOTE] Shit happened.

This sounds like a good idea. Can't wait to see how this turns out.

[QUOTE=ExplosiveCheese;30442135]This sounds like a good idea. Can't wait to see how this turns out.[/QUOTE] Well.. this isn't.. being made.. persay.

[QUOTE=LauScript;30443266]Well.. this isn't.. being made.. persay.[/QUOTE] What do you mean? That you won't be making it or..?

I was just wondering what people thought of the idea.

It sounds like a good idea but when it's done it'll be fucked up my idiots who will probably stack on the confederate team and shout [b]"GLORY FOR THE SOUTH SLAVERY RULES!"[/b].

Ah yeah, that is right... Damn internet.

Under the names John Price and John Mactivaish.[/QUOTE] It would be very difficult for them to do anything with civil war time period weapons.

Good luck finding the models and a map and a "Civil war" Spirit.

It's funny considering most of those who fought in the South, usually were looking for retribution for brutality done to family members in the North for owning one slave.

They had repeating rifles by the Civil War. They also were improvising air rifles for quiet a bit.

So guys lets say I made this, I want a roster of people that will play, or atleast so I have a list of people on each team. If I get enough people that would play, I suppose I could pay a modeller to make the models necessary.

And what do you mean "Civil War Spirit"

So the whole model situation is being figured out quite well.

[QUOTE=JoeSkylynx;30534621] Uh... Neo... They had repeating rifles by the Civil War. They also were improvising air rifles for quiet a bit.[/QUOTE] I had no idea, actually. That's pretty impressive for the time.

[QUOTE=Neo Kabuto;30547478]I had no idea, actually. That's pretty impressive for the time.[/QUOTE] There was some cavalry rifle that took a stick type bullet fed magazine through the stalk. Lever action.

I'd love to give a shot at modelling for this, I just need to know what to try.

Excellent, well would you do it for free? And are you good at modelling?

Alright people, we're making shit happen. Roster spots are open for confederate and union, So make a reply if you want to take part, what rank you get will be determined ICly, and slightly based on how well you are at roleplaying. So make a reply if you'd like to take part on the confederate or union, and we'll begin on a gamemode, or if you guys want maybe a gamemode that's already made( Tiramisu or something?). But if not, I suppose we'll make our own. I'll add rosters to the OP, lets make shit happen! Also skylynx i'd like it if you were to participate, you seem to know what you're talking about.

I like to think I'm fairly decent with Maya, maybe not as far as player models (I've never actually tried one before, but I'd be willing to give it a shot), but with weapons and similar stuff I can hold my own. And, of course, I do it for fun.
