Good Morning/Afternoon/Evening Folks ~
With the recent expansion of the various different armies across SWRPs factions, I thought now would be as good a time as any to fire up an interest check in getting a little group together. In every timeline I have been in, the rank-and-file of armies is often underutilized, despite the amazing potential of excellent storytelling. Looking at the Clone Wars, Bad Batch and Rebels, and some of the mobies (notably Rogue One), I think there's a lot of untapped potential here.
So, taking a look at all the major factions, which have armies, I would like to see if anyone is interested in getting a roleplay group together, or regular 'grunts' in one of the many armies on the site. Ideally, I am looking for a group of three other players (as that makes a good thread!) to join me in making a squad within either the ISC Army or the New Republic Defence Force. These groups are built for flexibility, so we could go for anything from a squad of infantry, to a starfighter pilot squad that happens to be on the front lines a lot (thinking of those chaps in the Mandalorian).
Our objective is pretty simple:
- Make a 'squad' within the army of one of the major factions, consisting of an SGT, and three troopers.
- Using the default gear and uniform provided, engage in PvE and PvP threads to support that faction.
- Tell stories as a group, fighting on the front lines of wars, anti-piracy engagements and more.
- Partner with other faction members (Senators, Governors etc) in their threads.
- Enter threads as a group (ie: one in, all in).
This has been tried a few times and learning from that, I think we need to start fresh with custom-built characters and work as a team to get the most out of it.
So, if you want to make a character for this, let me know, I'll add you to the group, and we can get going!
