In my limited experience of trying to make a Victorian/Civil War battle resolution system on the side, it's far easier to complicate things than make them simple and efficient lol. In my system, I realized even as I tried to simplify it, that it could still require a number of rolls per battle...

My first was historically based military strategy RPs on a forum. They were kind of like forum versions of tabletop games to an extent. There were usually 2, sometimes more teams of players, representing opposing armies or fleets or whatever else. There was usually a command structure, a weekly...

Yeah this helps, OP. For instance in a roleplay I’m in, I’m trying to RP a cheerful friendly extrovert. She wanted to check out a cafe, but got sidetracked meeting new people (classmates) outside. So I wrote a bit about how she briefly lamented not actually checking out the cafe like she...

You might get lucky and find an RP that is in service and yet still open, but I’d recommend checking out recent interest checks so you make sure you get in on the ground floor. Otherwise you could have to catch up on backstory/older posts. But like I think was just said, politeness is key...

What... The... Fuck ? Like, that's all I can say about that. I can't even. I'm totally triggered as a history enthusiast.

I dunno about going with a post within the RP, but I think it can be fun for an interest check or possibly the first post setting the stage. A song can really get one in the mood for the time and place of the RP, especially historically based ones. For instance I did start a western themed RP a...

Just about anything; medieval, American Old West, WW2, etc.

Consider the town’s “point.” Like why is it where it is, or even useful? Chances are, there’s something useful about the land where the town is. For instance gold, iron, copper, etc in the hills, or it’s a natural harbor, or a strategic crossroads, or has forests to exploit, or animals to trap...

Well I almost assumed Augusta Kohrs was the wife of Conrad Kohrs in ~1863 when she didn't actually marry him until ~1868 IIRC... Also--while not the "same," the USSR and Nazi Germany were very much 2 sides of the same coin both in the fundamental basis of their ideologies and in their...

A couple people said A-Team--that could be fun. Plenty of opportunity for shenanigans

A pirate RP sounds interesting!

Yet to find it.

I'm a guy who RP's guys--I guess it feels more comfortable. Although recently I started an RP with my first ever female character. I'm not sure how well I'll play them, but I figured I'd give it a shot anyhow.

Hmm sounds like it could be interesting. I'm in.

So years ago I was a member of the Armchair General Forums, corresponding to the military history magazine Armchair General, which itself included some "We Put YOU In Command" RP/wargaming type scenarios for the 'armchair generals' out there. Anyways on the forums it was common to do turn based...

I tried to get one going, but I blame myself for its failure. I'd like to get in on one though. I read Lonesome Dove this summer and loved it (not like happy "love" love, but, well if you've read it maybe you understand lol) and I'm starting in on Streets of Laredo right now. To me Larry...

A new Metro game is coming out? Cool! RPing Metro might be interesting. Metro 2033 is probably one of my favorite books and I really liked Metro: Last Light.

Lol, I'm 23 (soonish to be 24)--I have a character who's a 46 year old, though most I submit for RPs are younger.

Someone's rape and sex dungeon fantasy, on a different site--I immediately noped the fvck out of there

Guess guilt can help me, and eventually I write a post. Sometimes with creative writing stepping away for a bit can help, that's sometimes how I wrote enough words to win NaNoWriMo, although pushing myself helped in other situations.
