This time, it was Russa and the US carrying their respective flags. Eventually, they were joined by North Korea, and then the middle east feuds started growing in scale. Without the extra support that Africa had been getting from a lot of these countries, more and more civil wars broke out there as well. It didn’t take long before the world became one big battlefield, with very few demilitarized zones. However, one of these zones, which at that time was India, spent their time developing a new special weapon that was going to be sold to the highest bidder, a weapon that could turn the tides, with little to no aftermath. It was the first in its class, but far from the last. It was dubbed the Machina.<br/><br/>The Machina was purchased by the US army only a few weeks after it was completed in exchange of a large sum of money and a promise of leaving India out of the war. And, as it had been told, the Machina turned the tides of the war quickly, making this newly invented combat machine praised like nothing else by the US, whom had no successfully taken over both all of Russia, the middle east, and central Asia. China remained out of this due to their own military strength and weapon development, India remained out of it for a while before the US decided that they didn’t bother waiting and took over the country right away to make sure the technology didn’t leak anywhere else.<br/><br/>However, it already had. The head scientist of the group that had been designing the Machina had already fled to Thailand and later Japan since they were both independent countries and China seemed to be the next most vulnerable part of Asia.<br/><br/>After arriving in Japan, the head scientist started developing an improved series of these mechanical war-machines while the US were mass-producing the model they had gotten from India. These units were overall better in every thinkable way, but still, the US were trying to improve their own too.<br/><br/>eventually however, China didn’t manage to hold their ground anymore and fell, with Japan being the next on the list. In two mere days, all of Japan was under military control, and the scienstist that had been helping designing the new series of Machina was suddenly gone like the wind. However, the units that had been produced were practically ready for the battlefield, all they needed was their pilots to pick up the fight…<br/><br/><hr/><hr/><hr/><br/><strong>What will be going on and who are we?:</strong><br/>The roleplay will view the sudden chrisis from the eyes of the past members of the research facility known as Lazarus Inc. It would primarily be the test-pilots and the necessary technicians if anyone is interested in such a role. The roleplay would center around interactions between the different characters, as well as the fights against other mech, there’s not much more too it than that that I wish to reveal really, you’ll just have to see for yourself :)<br/><br/><strong>Rules:</strong><br/>- No meta-gaming (Having knowledge past what your character should be able to know)<br/>- Powerplaying (Moving other characters without their consent)<br/>- God-moding (Becoming the indestructible, overpowered asshole everybody hates)<br/><br/>- Treat one another with respect. This is OOC of course, characters can be in the throats of one another, but if you are among one another, work it out somewhere else, it really kills the mood.<br/>- Make sure that all information is read before starting to make a character. Everything in Spoilers included.<br/>- Don’t start whining because your character “Isn’t getting enough attention” or whatever. If something like that happens, it’s because said character is avoiding everyone 99% of the cases. The OOC is there for a reason.<br/><br/>- If you are struggling with something, please, for the love of everything that is good, ask, don’t keep it to yourself. This refers to anything from interactions to character creation. If there’s something you’re wondering about, ask me. It can be convenient for others as well.<br/><br/>[/spoiler]<br/><br/><strong>Post header</strong><br/><br/>Keep this header on the top of your post, and make sure to remember to update it.<br/><br/><div class="codeheader">Code: <a class="codeoperation" href="javascript:void(0);" onclick="return smfSelectText(this);">[Select]</a></div><pre style="margin: 0; padding: 0;"><code class="bbc_code">[floatleft][img height=250 padding=6][/img][/floatleft][table]<br/>[tr]<br/><span style="white-space: pre;">	</span>[td]Name[/td]<br/><span style="white-space: pre;">	</span>[td] || [/td]<br/><span style="white-space: pre;">	</span>[td]&gt;Insert name&lt;[/td]<br/>[/tr]<br/>[tr]<br/><span style="white-space: pre;">	</span>[td]Location[/td]<br/><span style="white-space: pre;">	</span>[td] || [/td]<br/><span style="white-space: pre;">	</span>[td]&gt;Insert location&lt;[/td]<br/>[/tr]<br/>[tr]<br/><span style="white-space: pre;">	</span>[td]Tagging[/td]<br/><span style="white-space: pre;">	</span>[td] || [/td]<br/><span style="white-space: pre;">	</span>[td]&gt;Insert tagged people&lt;[/td]<br/>[/tr]<br/>[/table]<br/><br/>[hr]<br/></code></pre>
