President of the United States
This game is a spiritual successor to Pacific War - Empires Clash.
The Third Great War began twelve years ago and raged for eight years. Now the year is 2024 and things seem quiet - the Protectorate Federation, eventual winner of the war and One World Government of Terra, relaxes, finally thinking that it is safe.
Then the United States Military District explodes as the American Uprising is unleashed from thin air. Simultaneous rebellions occur in the former Mongol and Japanese Empires, leaving the Federation with no reserves and an immense uprising to pacify. As communications are jammed between the afflicted regions and Europe, panic spreads and the Federation's forces begin to break.
That was over the last five hours.
Now it's almost noon - and Washington DC is torn by endless gunfire and constant artillery. Fire illuminates the city, great pillars of smoke clawing for the heavens. The White House is a flaming ruin - a company of Federation soldiers made a stand there, barely being evacuated before American artillery obliterated the location. The Pentagon still stands, and the Americans are barreling to take it with insane fervor.
Total war has refound the United States. The Federation's troops are a new generation - expecting occupation duty, not a war! Enough pressure, and they will break.
Are you going to provide that pressure, or are you going to try and rally them?

This game is played in a chatroom - it will be made for the full game. It is a real-time-tactical forum game. You are all in the persona of officers in your respective army - either Free American or Protectorate Federation - commanding small groups of men into action while simultaneously fighting as hard as you can yourself. The entire fate of the Uprising may well rest on your shoulders.
I won't describe much of the rules in this thread - here you sign up. Add your character's name, your faction(of the two presented) and then your starting equipment from the lists below. Maybe give us a few details about you character - where is he/she from? Why did he/she enter the United Protectorate Army or Free America? What does he/she look like? What other assignments did he/she have/not have before DC and the Uprising?
Then list your stats from the following:
Physical: Strength and fitness. Affects your resilience and proficiency in hand-to-hand combat.
Mental: Concentration and intelligence. Affects your accuracy and gives you bonuses to trying to figure out enemy plans.
Charisma: Speech skills and leadership. Increases your character's CP and makes fire support more accurate.
You start with 5 points in each stat and you have 12 points to customize. Do not count on getting many more points or getting them on a regular basis.
There are two types of currency in this game - Gear Points(GP) and Command Points(CP). Gear Points are used to buy weapons and ammunition for yourself and Command Points control how many units are under your character's command. GP are earned in combat and CP is a stable total that regenerates after you detach old units. It goes up with promotions. Note: CP is a stable total. You "attach" units or fire support assets to your character, but when they're detached the CP cost is refunded to you. Increase CP by increasing CHA and getting promotions.
You can only spend Gear Points ATM. Everyone starts with 200.
