Half Life MK 2 sign up and OOC

[Lord General Armstrong]

Seeing as this part of the board has been dead for a few months, I am thinking of bringing the second half of the half life roleplay. The first told a small but unfinished tragedy and loss of our own world.

This roleplay will start about the same time as the city 17 rebellion. The idea is we are going to attempt to recapture several cities on the US eastern seaboard, these will be a series of conventional attacks, gorilla warfare and possible xen outbreaks.

Previous players can bring there old characters or create new ones. But in one way or the other everyone from the past roleplay will be there and the HECU will tell everyone of the Black Mesa incident.

My Character:

Harison. The current commander, that you must report too.

Weapons:
M4A1 assault rifle with attached grenade launcher
KRAL Tactical 12 Gauge

Speical item:
ATS4 (One Shot)

Equipment:
PCA (Powered Combat Armour)
PCH (Powered Combat Helmet) (with in built helmet cam, laser sight and helmet com)
Gasmask
shoulder mounted flash lights

[Laughing Man]

Professor William Smythe

Weapons: Experimental focused beam weapon (laser pistol)
A pocket knife

wears a labcoat and carries a small pda.

[Srgt. Master]

I'm interested in the roleplay, but I really lack any deep background about half-life, not having played the game before, and only having read this site once in awhile at my friend's urging members.shaw.ca/halflifestory/index.htm

would the 'fluff gap' be too much of an issue?

[Lord General Armstrong]

Well Srgt. Master just read up on some fluff, also the majority of military personal don't know to much about the incident or the creatures. The HECU has secret files they stole from black mesa, plus some of our own study we have been doing in our underground bunker complex.

- tips read the original half life roleplay, this will give you a gist of whats to come.
- half-life.wikia.com/wiki/Main_Page this site is quite useful as well.

[Srgt. Master]

Alright, thanks will do when able.

[dwi]

OH BABY! THis is going to be fun! I am going to look up my half life history again then sign up!
Woooo!

[The Refined Gentleman (M.I.A)]

I'm thinking of signing up. What about, not a HECU marine but an escaped rebel?

[Srgt. Master]

I would most probably be armed militia or (very lucky) scientist with a gun. In Either case I am not knowledgable in military tacics besides "if in doubt, pull and hold the trigger"!

[Lord General Armstrong]

The Gentleman Soldier you were in the last one you know the drill. Lol (can I also ask if you command your old character Charlie Ambridge as well just to get things started please) I will also send PM's to other previous players to see if i can get them to join.

You can be any character, you can start in one of the cities we will be liberating later in Roleplay or take command of your old character and the others that will start in our bunker as soon as the city 17 up-rise strikes.
