Welcome to Gaia! ::

Sounds interesting

this shall be good :3

That just sucks.



With running from lightning, when scifi gets thrown in squads could be running from genetically modified cyborgs who are walking, shouting, 10 billion volt tasers while another squad is running from merciless flamethrower crews who have no care in the world that people's homes are going up in smoke. That or bombers dropping high yield fire bombs on squad facilities who are trying to defend using anti aircraft guns.

With assassin duels, it may be more fun to RP sniper vs sniper with dice rolls to determine how hard a hit is when it's coming from a couple hundred, to even thousand of yards apart compared to dealing with bards, mages, etc using arrows. (Nothing says "go away" like shooting at a person using a .50 caliber rifle with a 40x scope from your rooftop)

As well as counter special ops missions with genetically modified humans to have abnormal agility and silent breathing in an area where the enemy has their own special ops crews with just as many enhancements making them unable to be heard or even seen unless you're right next to them, and even then you may have to make a guess shot with a shotgun.

Because science is amazing and terrifying when added to warfare and when there are very few restrictions.

          Gaia been boring while I've been gone?

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                              



          Err-uh, I'm entirely, completely sure that that is definitely not the iteration of Sci-Fi that I'm going to be employing. There won't be anywhere near that amount
          of free-form pseudo-science going on, with anything and everything science could ever possibly bring. There are definitely restrictions, and there's a lore-
          friendly string of sci-fi that I'll be employing that keeps to near-future concepts with Machines, Artificial Intelligence, Weapons and War Sciences, but nothing
          like android armies and George-Jetson Speedcars running through the skies.

          As for how you've explained Assassin Duels, I don't see how those would be specifically "Assassin" Duels o.e Just sounds like a typical duel with two
          military-trained personnel carrying firearms.

          Perhaps its best you read the synopsis a little and, when the Missions themselves come out and the plot unfolds in full, you'll have a clear idea of the type of
          Sci-Fi I'm putting up.

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                              

          @ Everyone:
          Incidentally, I've updated the Guild Home Page with the new Guild's Logo and Synopsis. Give it a read if you like, guys.

          <. x/ So many victims.

          And yes! HP Bars. Like so~

          Much, much more of the Systems have already been made, but I still have to fully plot out all the Missions and create all the instances of enemies.

          Indeed. This will all be explained in full by the Systems themselves when put in place, but the gist of it is as follows.

          There are three types of entity mobility, or maneuverability. Grounded, Airborne and Agile. The different types change how they can be damaged. For
          example, Grounded enemies can be hit by any weapon, including thrown Grenades, whilst Airborne enemies can be hit by any weapon except Blades and
          Grenades. Agile enemies dodge 50% of all incoming damage, except for damage dealt by Blades, which still hit them 100% of the time, and enemies that are both
          Airborne and Agile get the best of both mobility types -- they dodge 50% of all incoming damage and cannot be hit by Blades or Grenades -- basically
          meaning they're harder to hit, or take more ammo to dispatch.

          The three mobility types were developed as an effective stand-in for what could have been, if this were not set in Threads and forums, a factor determining an enemy's
          distance from the player, or a held weapon's range.

          Its all to add another dimension of challenge.

Don't wanna keep waiting..... *sits in corner and pouts*
