was dreaming when i thought up this idea and half there now when i write this so this is going to not only be slightly half pulled out the rear this is just up here for debating the general idea

well the basic structure is yet another post apocalyptic wasteland in a scifi world which i like the starting from scrap style of things so please dont sue me for this fallout or any of the other games like it

the year is 52,040 AD but has came to be called 40 MW for magnetic wave. When the magnetic poles shifted and the barrier from solar radiation created by it faltered scientists-
((yes i am still playing the "too smart to know better" card lol))
- sent reactor units to the core to accelerate the shift and fried most all computers, set off the whole ring of fire and pummeled the earth in space debris.
current time

40 years later most of the earths crust has been flattened from volcanic activity, earthquakes and the debris smashing mountains to very tall hills. In the first days of conflict ancient antique vehicles where commissioned from museums to combat both riots and other countries because of the low requirements of electrical circuitry and that they where in either open fields or small museums, which caused them to be some of the only vehicles that survived.

Over 80% of the populace of the planet was either boiled, buried, or pummeled to death but there was a large populace of other planetary drilling ships that cannot return to earth because of earths extremely large magnetic field. The field around earth triples the gravitational effect on objects over 1000 yards over solid ground and would destroy them preventing anything that they could send down to help from making it if it is mostly metal or electrical. The drilling ships have the capacity to produce gravity lifts which are capable of picking up objects under 2 tons and lift them safely through the atmosphere in a compressed tube which they need because they cannot terraform a planet and recycling food only lasts so many generations before it genetically dies out.
the mission

small divisions of farmers/harvesters drive across the ring of the equator gathering plants, animals, metal, and even workers that are needed to keep them adrift so that they may eventually get off the planet that, to some it would seem, is waging a war to kill everyone and pitting each other against everyone to see who will survive.
There are 5 rigs that circle above the half blotted sky, while none are truly affiliated with the other 3 out of the 5 do not instigate fighting directly between them. The ships cannot turn down the means of resources whenever they can get them but will only keep records of their own employees and how long they must work before they get their vacation, so the robbery of other company drivers while at the same time they will sponsor a manhunt for anyone on their team who would cheat another driver on their team

The 2 remaining drillers openly accept anyone who would bring them their supplies and sponsor 'team hunts' to assault and assassinate other team drivers to steal their supplies. Little is known about the 2 agressive drillers except that they fairly much hate everyone evenly and have been keeping their distance from the other 3 except during the harvesting times and one of the two has an assassin team that runs in shifts called "the black dragon team".

alright, i have a few things that would be changed by the time this would be truly posted if it gets enough work to make it that far

being that the antique vehicles are from this time the time of the crumbling is 2553 so that they could still be made to run

the 3 crews that will be the main teams the players will work for will be needing more detail as to why you would select them, if it actually makes it over 9 players the darker crews will then be opened

and there will be a bit more structure to the characters as to how they will be made and why they would pick the teams they would

in the year is 2,553 AD and in the past 40 years earth has been recovering from a meteor storm that struck hard enough, with enough meteors, to cause the surface of the earth to shift and make a giant ring around the equator called "The Black Circuit"

current time

40 years later most of the earths crust has been flattened from volcanic activity, earthquakes and the debris smashing mountains to very tall hills. The meteors have a very high content of a metal called Nethicite ((please dont sue me either FF team)) that generates a high electrical field when heated. Nethicite also tends to flake when it is super heated and as it entered earths atmosphere it left a coating of it up there.

Over 80% of the populace has died from either being boiled, buried, or pummeled by space debris and have struggled to survive afterwards. While at the same time of this occurrence there where five spaceship mining rigs outside of the atmosphere that, although made for space, where made to stay in orbit and cannot safely preform reentry. Because of the nethicite in the atmosphere they can only send very limited supplies down to earth through drop pods while at the same time they can pick up just about anything under two tons off the ground and up into the ships. The orbital drilling rigs that where priory designed to send teams down to a surface and pull back supplies are still reliant on Earth for food and supplies on the simple basis that a genetic strand can only repeat so many times before it dies out, they also cannot terraform a planet so they have no home of their own to return to.

the mission

small divisions of farmers/harvesters drive across the ring of the equator gathering plants, animals, metal, and even workers that are needed to keep them adrift so that they may eventually get off the planet for a vacation that is a big free for all, you think it, you can do it if it is legal.
The ships cannot turn down the means of resources whenever they can get them but will only keep records of their own employees and how long they must work before they get their vacation, so the robbery of other company drivers while at the same time they will sponsor a manhunt for anyone on their team who would cheat another driver on their team. While all 5 rigs are now refitted to be cruise liners, they dont work together, which doesnt mean their drivers cannot. Three of the rigs try and respect boundaries and others lives and will not promote the robbery of other drivers.
The 2 remaining drillers openly accept anyone who would bring them their supplies and sponsor 'team hunts' to assault and assassinate other team drivers to steal their supplies. Little is known about the 2 aggressive rigs except that they fairly much hate everyone evenly and have been keeping their distance from the other 3 except during the harvesting times and one of the two has an assassin team that runs in shifts called "the black dragon team".


editing for some particulars

and this is a basic profile character, it would be mine if it actually gets made into one

name: Max "the runner" Pegasus
vehicle: the bus by the code name "Humility"
vehicle details: light armored, heavy carrier class, armed with a 50 cal open for top swivel and a flame thrower for counterattack, foam tires that are fire resistant and could run even on flats, it has a tower relay to call in drops from his crew, back door ramp, cow catcher on the front
bio: Max lived fairly far north of the equator in a secluded part of the world till he found a bus that had made an impact with a military Humvee. His path did not truly cross with the wreckage till he heard about the Black Circuit. He spend 3 years of his life trying to get connections to contact the US, which after the first year he started receiving parts as he expanded his garden. When he finally got a box of ammo for the gun he set off on a trip to the Black Circuit to make his fortune

short version of stats

((thought id add this in for a simple way to compare vehicles))
carrying capasity ♦♦♦♦♦ 2 whole tons if it there is enough containers to put some on the roof
speed♦♦♦♦ for its size and weight a nice speed at 65mph
weapons♦♦♦ single 50 cal
armor♦♦ would be grade 3 if the armor wasnt localized to the front of the bus and motor, anything bigger than sub machine guns are going through
handling♦♦easier to plow stuff over or make long turns, narrow turns dont cut it

after going through the details of the show, i realized it is very very simular lol, though i only had 5 / 6 (if you count free radicals like ryders character) factions instead of 8

I read the details too and completley agree, it looks a lot like your rp was based off that. It actually would make for a neat rp
