The War We've Been Waiting For is Finally Upon Us!
Hey everyone! So today, THGT:PF had a successful war council meeting over on Slack, and we've figured out the details of our very first battle! If you want to see our discussion, it's in the #warcouncil_ooc board.
The Basics
Where: District 4
Who: District 13 versus the Capitol. Anyone allied with D13 or the Capitol can participate, whether or not they are in D4. Alias' Army will not be participating.
Why: District 13 is attempting to cut off trade and transport between District 4 and the Capitol, with is a large source of food and supplies. They are also trying to establish a second stronghold for the rebellion.
When: Posting can begin on Monday, December 5th in the "Rebellion Related" area. In our timeline, this will be after AA's prison breakout (so anyone freed can participate), a few months after the 76th Hunger Games.
How: The entire battle will be in character (IC),with no HG style dice fighting. If your character is in a fight with someone, please discuss with that character's player OOC what the final outcome will be and IC it out. Remember, NO CHARACTERS WILL DIE unless the player wants that and it has been discussed previously. (This same rule applies to the entire war.) All posting will be in "Rebellion Related", with a sub-board for Battle One and a main posting thread, but there can be side threads and ICC chats associated with the battle. There will be no set posting order during any part of the battle so that we don't get slowed down - just use your own discretion for how often to post.
The Outcome: The Capitol will win the battle in terms of damage, and trade will remain open with District 4. However, District 13 will gain exposure, which can help build their ranks. Alias' Army might even win a bit because people discouraged by the D13 loss might join to AA's cause for a better chance.
