just because 1 or 2 mods don't find it interesting doesn't mean we all aren't
everyone in this world has different opinions you know 😛

Ok So i posted this along time ago in unhosted but didn't ever make the thread. so here it is here with some changes. Also I won't actually have a character in this one will just be in control of npcs, and throwing things you way, and things like posting whats all in buildings and such.G.A.B.S.
The middle east is now a large unified empire that also covers north Africa. Their new leader has mysteriously shut off all contact with the outside world. A few months after he did rumors started surfacing of them invading nearby small countries and swiftly taking them over, in hours to days. the U.S. decides to send a small squad in to secretly check it out off the record. They arrive in a nearby city that is rumored to be occupied but when they got there it was empty, After a little while of time they were all killed except for a few who escaped with footage of what happened. It showed genetically altered soldiers that seemed to have animal traits. Like infantry running on all fours at like 65 miles per hour, when they got close tearing them apart with claws and fangs. Scaly men that cling to walls and change their skin tone to blend in with surroundings, large men with bone like exoskeletons with a mechanical scorpion tail. etc. The rest of the world noticed that whenever a nation would attack them with air strikes and missiles it wouldn't work. It would also shut down when near the nation. An Alliance of many of the countries around the world decides to send in a team of the first successful Super Soldier experiments. The unit is heavily armed and is ordered to sneak in, find and deactivate whatever is shutting down planes and incoming missiles. And capture the scientists responsible for the beast like men on the video.
You are that unit
there will be more info on the "super soldiers" later if people show interest

2068
60 years ago Red Skull organized all the super-villians of the world in a grand destruction of the super-heroes and total world domination, very few survived, even Wolverine died.
10 years ago
Logan now an old man with a wife and two kid and has a pact with himself to never pop the claws. Hawkeye recruited him to be his navigator across america as he was blind and needed to make a very special delivery. to make a 8 issues (one giant size) short it was a supersoldier serum, it was a government sting operation, hawkeye was killed, then logan killed red skull with captain america's shield, then took the money and what was left of iron man's armour and flew home, only to find his wife and kids murdered 2 weeks early by the hulks who decided they were bored and didn't wanna wait. logan gave up his pact and popped his claws, he then hunted down and killed every hulk, except little brucey banner (who i'm geussing was about 1 or 2, but for the sake of him being a character in this, he'll be 4 during the prologue)
Wolverine then burried and family and left to start a new team, their mission is too restore the world to good.now, 2068 AD
wolverine and his team are ready, and doom is the new president of the states.
To The Last Man
In the grim darkness of the far future, there is only War!
Based upon the Table Top Game, Warhammer 40k.
The Backstory
Welcome to the 312th Death Korps of Krieg, a regiment raised to essentially die for the 'glory of the Imperium.' Sent to the backwards planet of Feralis XII, a fierce band of Orks met with them in horrific battle that stretched a period of three months. After this time of fighting, the relentless tide of Greenskins pushed the Imperial soldiers back unto the small fortress nicknamed by the guardsmen, 'The Colosseum' because of its fiery reminder that each man and woman had a destiny of death upon this foreign soil. Now, surrounded on all sides and morale and ammo running low, can the stout forces of Krieg manage to hold off against a seemingly unstoppable and relentess tide, or will they be crushed into the dirt, forgotten and lost amongst the annals of defeat.
Players take the role of Guardsmen, the stout defenders of Humanity in a universe that is trying to kill them. Battling alongside comrades against a enemy that is surely going to kill them, for there are no communications, in the 41st Millennia in the Death Korps of Krieg, the only thing certain is a miserable death on the front lines.
But history has always proved full of surprises.
If the idea catches on I'll post up the character skeleton alongside a wargear list (which weapons can be taken by the players: ie Lasgun, grenade launcher, etc)
Any questions please feel free to PM me or leave a message here and I'll be sure as sure to get back to you. Thank you.
To be honmest, things here arenlt being approved because I am not seeing develped ideas. A decent Unhosted pitch needs way more than a descriptive paragraph, and I am doubly nervous about converted Unhosted ideas.
In contrast, Lt_Champion's pitch has a bit more to it and though it has been slow to get sign-ups, it can go ahead.
-
Jalek and EH, you are going to have to give me more. I am simply unconvinced that they are sustainable Hosted ideas.
Well, as said, a decent pitch needs more than just a single paragraph.
For a start, I'd say more information on the plot, more details on the background and setup, what sort of characters people will be playing as or allowed to create, roles required and/or desired, any particular rules for your game, and so on would be useful.
A decent Hosted game generally requires a fair amount of prep work put into it, as well as a fair amount of time/work to run it.
additional info for G.A.B.S.
Class system: 4 types of super soldier with different advantages and weapons they are good with. Wreckers(close quarters based), Shields (the tank class, and vehicles experts)., Nanos(medics and armor repair), Assault( programmed to be skilled with all known weapons. optical and neural implants to help with accuracy).
Depending on what you have and class will effect how, and what you are capable of carrying along. Don't really expect you too, so I will be monitoring how much damage your armor (or shields and body) has taken, and will tell you when needed or asked so you know when you need to get it fixed up or get transport back to base. Also I will control when ammo for your guns and much better ones will be found. The players will be new to being modified into what they currently are so occasionally things happen to them that effect their ability to operate function properly.
I have pretty much the entire plot thought out and can explain that and more about the classes and base if needed.
like i've said i have spent quite a while working out the plotline and which villians will be in it, example it took me 2 hours to narrow down a list of candidates for arnim-land, decided somebody that has dead heroes/villains as his servants would be a good challenge, i'm open for pretty much any kind of character that isn't a dead marvel character and isn't an uber-god character
well as for characters, as wolverine, emma frost and black bolt are the only known heroes that are still alive, and black bolt is rediculously powerful and old, i'm gonna say he's died of old age, however somebody can play emma, who is shown as being just as young and hot as she was 50 years ago because she projects that image into people.
so this pretty much leaves to creating a character, now obviously you can make you own character thats completely new, or you can make characters that have taken the mantle of past heroes.

Very well, I shall add more information.
Players take the positions are Imperial Guardsmen, infantrymen of the Imperial Guard in the 41st millenia. A vile and savage armada of Orks, greenskinned barbarians are surrounding them and wittling them down after a 3 month war of attrition. The unit has been beaten back and back until finally forced to defend a small fort from an onslaught of enemies. The entire objective of the game is to see how long one can last, that is, how long the remainder of the company can stay alive for > the game isn't neccessairly about holding out until reinforcements arrive, it's more about making a valiant stand in the face of certain death.
Players will be allowed to create their own unique persona:
Name:
Age:
Homeplanet: (Krieg would be standard but it is not uncommon for Imperial regiments to draw recruits from foreign worlds)
Rank:
Wargear: (will list)
Personality:
Background:
Remember, these Guardsmen are veterans of a 3 month long conflict, so they are weary, tired, but still standing firm against the enemy.
Wargear: Warhammer 40k is a world full of many different weapons, and some things you can take along:
Lasrifle: The standard rifle of the Imperial Guard, it fires a shot of compressed ionized air. While alone it is not the most powerful rifle, combined and in massed numbers it can prove (and has) to be a deadly foe.
Laspistol: The pistol variant of the lasrifle.
Hotshot-lasrifle/pistol: Hotshot lasrifles/pistols fire a more super-heated shot which has a lot more damage than your standard rifle. However, they over-heat more easily and have a shorter range.
Heavy Bolter: A Heavy Bolter requires 2 men to fire it and is essentially a heavy machine gun
Grenade Launcher: Self-explanatory
Flamer: A flame thrower
Plasma Rifle: A very powerful gun that can melt through most armour. However, it has a chance to literally explode in the users hands and kill him.
Lascannon: another 2-man weapon it fires a super blast that is designed against armour. However, it can fire one shot and kill most infantry in that one shot.
Grenades: Self-explainatory
Chainsword: Most sergeants will carry a chainsword, it is essentially a sword but the blade being a chainsaw, they are tough and can withstand a lot of punishment and very deadly.
Power Sword: Essentially a sword that can slice through flesh and armour with ease
Bolt pistol: A bolt pistol is more powerful version of laspistol, but instead of firing ionized air it fires a fat bolt slug that can rip through flesh.
Autocannon: A lot like the heavy bolter, autocannons are more powerful and a bit fasterto fire, they are devasting against swarms of infantry.
A more complete Wargear list will be posted along with pictures, etc.
Additional Information:
Just a reminder, the players of the 312th Krieg are fighting to the last gasp, this savage Ork army is pounding away at the gates - morale is dropping and tensions are running high. I want to create a sense of urgency throughout the game, a sense of desperation and blind courage/luck. I've got some really cool idea's and plot points if this catches on which I'm hoping it will.
Is this enough for information? I can always add more if ya'll please.
