So, all of those delegations either got you here, or got you nowhere. Either way here you stand, at the brink of war. A few guidelines are going to be in place. VIOLATORS WILL BE BLACKLISTED!
I do appologize for the following sets of rules, but if this delicate balance of activity and civility is to be kept, I must be ready to enforce my rules. And I promise you, I will do just that if push comes to shove, so do stay within reason with your battlefield badassery, if you please.
NON-MEMBERS ARE ALLOWED TO POST IN THIS SUBFORUM!
RULES AND GUIDELINES
- No one may post in here without the Captain's explicit permission and a pre-posted Profile.
- All violence is to be contained here.*
- Language is to be kept within reason. No excessive 4-letter-words or particularly "colorful" verses, please.**
- No God-modding.***
- Have fun.****
Please note also that only pre-ordained Battles, as discussed and fully settled-on inside the Main Embassy Chamber (which you are free to look in on, but if you are not a member, you MAY NOT post in there), are allowed in here. Each "War" gets its own Topic, and the first Posts of that Topic will be, in this order;
1]=- Description of battle. Includes synopsis of Terms of Engagement (weapons, medical facilities, vehicles, maneuvers, and members allowed in the RP) as well as the general landscape, time, weather, and conditions of battle. No synopsis or Briefing just yet, that comes later.
2]=- Story of Battle so far. The Ambassadors for each guild will be required to keep track on the going-ons of the battle, up until the last post. This includes POW-status, WIA or KIA statuses (also noted in the Combatant List), as well as general troop movement. Each day, I (the Captain) expect a report on this, so that I may update this particularly vital post for newcomers and veterans alike.
3]=- Combatant List. Includes the names and RP-Names (and only those two pieces of information), of the allowed fighters in the current RP. Also contains a Blacklist for that particular RP. Anyone found to be posting inside the RP who is NOT on the Combatant List will be blacklisted, and all pertinant posts will be deleted and their effects will be ignored.

*If anyone "fires" a gun or "stabs" anyone, or in any other way detains or causes fictional bodily-harm to another, it will be considered a direct act of hostile intent, and punishable by expulsion from the Embassy and/or full-out action on part of the victim's allies.
**I must admit, however, a well-implemented exclamation can be the difference between a boring post and a hilarious post.
***This means, to those of you who may be uninformed, that you cannot always hit the enemy. You are not invincible. You cannot take out an entire squad, platoon, and for sure not a company, with a single attack (DoomsDay weapon or not). Basically, if you find half of the RPers yelling at you, you have probably god-modded.
****I'm just kidding, you don't really need a footnote for this one. Enjoy yourself, so long as the first 3 rules are foremost in your mind.
