The year is 1930,america is in the Great Depression and crime is on the rise.In Liberty city, After a war between the major families of the Gaveillis and Carlados became weak and unsupported by the law and other allies.A lot of their ex-members have broken off and some have started their own gangs.In this situation smaller families can rise to the top,and an fall to the bottom of the food chain. Rules: 1.No godmodding 2.This is a character/family driven RP. 3.You can kill an other player's associates and empoyees. 4.Stay in the era's tech and if the RP will stay alive for a longer period of time,then we can have historical events effecting the game. 5.I am the mod of the game for now.I'll control the NPC families,characters,police and special events.Maybe I'll appoint someone who's dedicated enought for the job. 6.Every player can choose his faction(either the mafia or the police) or just play freelance,but politican and others are not accepted.

I don't know.Maybe we can have people as the police.But I don't want this to turn into a cops vs robbers game.
So do I have to post a template now? Also when is the game going to begin officially? I mean there are maybe only 3 potential people interested right now. Oh and shouldn't we have a map with starting positions to make thing easier?
Please don't make this WHILE citystates is going on. At least have the courtesy to make it after Citystates dies off... EDIT: Really, it's just plain rude.
Some people didn't manage to sign up in time for city states and who ever missed out or who ever prefers this era can play this RP while the rest play city states.
City states is still open. Anyone can sign up at any time. And you'll be taking people to post here from Citystates. I can understand your new and don't understand, but this is just plain rude. We have a succesful thread going. Don't ruin that.
Updated some stuff on the OP Yes.Have a primary/main charater template filled out,have some names for the employees(maybe fill the tamplate for them if yyou have the time). You and all players will start from LVL1 Okay? If you want to play,then yes for your character. The start of the game will be in the near future,I dunno this is still a rought draft and I'll listen for a few suggestions and then I'll start the game.+when the RP giant Citystates will lose some poularity. The starting postion 4 the NPC is in the updated OP and the players will choose one when they begin to play.
Okay don't worry.I'll sharpen the RP's mechanics and shit for a while.I'll start by the time I'll get enough players(like 4-5) and an enjoyable RP. Look.Citystates is a blittle bit overcrowded at the moment,and drains the attention from the other RP's like the StarWars one which is just barely alive.+ The 3-5 people that will be writing posts for this RP can still play in Citystates you know. And having something like this won't really attract a lot of folk away from Citystates.
I'm interested, would you like me to fill out the template and what have you on this thread, or the official RP thread?
No it's only an interest thread.We'll start the RP in the near future. And yes if you want to play in the RP you'll need to fill out the template for your main/primary character.

Oh, wow... you spelt it wrong! Anyway, here's mine Name: Freddie Battaliono Age: 22 Height: 5'11'' Weight: 170 pounds Affiliation: Biscotti family Origin: Italy, Sicily, Palermo Backstory: Freddie Battaliono is a young Italian born man who came to the U.S with his parents when he was young. He grew up with a rough life, and ended up associating with mobsters. With the Great Depression going on, Freddie couldn't really do anything other than working for the Mob. After he ended up in a huge war with many of the greater families, his old family broke down, and all of the members seperated. Freddie Battaliono now belongs with the Biscotti family, in Middle Park East. Prison sentence: N/A Weapons: Handguns, blunt objects and small knives Strengths: Superb at hiding from authority, great smuggler and good fighter, fluent in both Italian and English. Weaknesses: Allergy to dogs and cats, sleeping disorder.
Oh no no, you spelt his surname like this. When it is actually spelt Corleone Well, if you want to be cool, yes.
Not really,it's the era's most common origins of gangsters in NYC Liberty city. But you can be of any origin you like.
