RP talk:Glorious Oblivion

The more in-depth rules are going to be posted below. Just give me and AR some time to get them up here.  SPARTAN-091  |Admin|   HelmetComm  17:34, 19 October 2007 (UTC)

Some rules are as such; concerning proper grammar, please try and avoid mistakes. Put it on word and spellcheck, or if you don't know how to spell a word, look up the spelling first. Also, for Elite names, all Elites are discharged from the Covenant's army. Because of that, remove the -ee suffix from their name, like this: 'Vorlonee --->'Vorlon. All posts should be relatively long, at least longer than 5-6 sentences. Please also try and make your characters less "rigged"; this was a major problem in my previous Hollow Bastion RP. Make them get hurt more often, with some serious injuries, and if you're willing to lose one, get rid of a character. This is war; not a video game where you never really die. UNSC ships are generally worse than Covenant ships, and it might take a couple to take out one. MAKE SURE TO SIGN YOUR POSTS, and also, try to steer away from errors pertaining to facts. Look anything you don't know up on Halopedia first. Try and incorporate actual military strategy into your posts, and also use detail.

SHIP TO SHIP COMBAT RULES

 * 1) Human ships are vastly inferior to their Covenant counterparts. Roleplay your ship fights accordingly.
 * 2) One to two plasma torpedo hits will be enough to destroy a UNSC capital ship. (EXCEPTION: UNSC Battleships and UNSC Supercarriers, which take four to five hits. There are only two of each ship)
 * 3) UNSC Longswords easily dominate Covenant Seraphs. Roleplay your dogfights accordingly.
 * 4) Only units designated as "Carriers" can carry more than sixteen fighters.
 * 5) It takes three MAC rounds from light UNSC ships (Frigate, Cruiser, Corvette) to bring down a Covenant ship's shields, and two more MAC rounds to destroy it. Roleplay accordingly.
 * 6) It takes ONE Super MAC or Heavy MAC round to bring down a Covenant ship's shields, and only one more to destroy it.
 * 7) Please ask a Chief Moderator for permission to be a ship's captain.

SHIP TO MAC GUN COMBAT RULES
 SPARTAN-091  |Admin|   HelmetComm  00:57, 3 November 2007 (UTC)
 * 1) The only person in charge of the Super MAC platforms' fire controls is the Fleet Admiral, who will be appointed by the Chief Moderators.
 * 2) See above rules for MAC rounds for damages.
 * 3) It is almost impossible for Covenant capital ships to make it through the Orbital Defense Grid. Instead, Covenant forces must use dropships and boarding craft to deploy a bomb onto the MAC platform. (Halo 2 style)

ONE ON ONE FIGHTS

 * 1) Here is the overall strength chart of races;

1st-Hunters

Plasma-->Flesh/Shielding

Bullets-->Armor/Shielding

Tentacles-->Flesh/Basic Armor

Brute Blades-->Flesh

Grenades/Rockets-->All

Gravity Hammers/Energy Swords-->All

Sentinel Beams-->All (Depending on how long it stays hitting target)

Snipers-->Flesh/Armor, All(Normal:Headshots. Flood:Chest shots, where the Infection Form is, or Sensory Stalks in Pure Forms)
 * 1) Luck is a constant factor, but do not use it too much. You're not the Master Chief.
 * 2) If you suffer from injuries, don't heal immediately. Add blacking out and permanent scars/injuries to your roleplay.

Canon
I love this fanons canonocity... no nakai... no shield... no precursor... just canon. This is going to be a huge fight too. When is it going to start? -- AJ

Do you have problems with those? And isn't Precursor canon? -- The State(Our Decrees and Law)(The State Alchemists we've enlisted) 04:55, 25 November 2007 (UTC)


 * I don't have a problem with them. I was the one who brought in the Precursor in H:WEA. But, I've always been longing for a canon RP. -- AJ

Can I join?
