In the last few weeks several posts have been made by several members of the Wing Commander Community regarding plans for the start up of their own Wing Commander RPG's. Plans have been in the works now by myself (Sangy) and another prominent member of the WCGC Confederation Team (Expendable). Between the two of us we have several years worth of Role-Play participation in all kinds of differant form, from D6 systems to D20, to online chat rooms, to Message Board RPs. In addition, Slawter from the boards has pledged his participation and commitment to this project, rather then to pursue his own Message Board RP.
With our experiances at WCGC we have accumulated a list of all the things we would like to see done and how they should be done correctly in a Wing Commander board based RP. Now we are interested in developing this project into a working Role-Play system so that you, the Wing Commander fan can take his turn to become Admiral Tolwyn, defeating the Kilrathi above Earth, Jason Bondarevsky, sneaking behind Enemy Lines, and William Bainbridge, Defeating the bulk of the Kilrathi fleet at Vukar Tag.
This RP plans to be completely canon, and take place sometime around the WCII Era, that is around the year 2657. Numerous ships and postings will be available for the RP, including politicol offices and command positions. At some point we would like to expand the RP beyond simply the fleet and include the differant branches into the RP. The RP as it stands will be ship-to-ship combat based, including Fleets and Battlegroups, rather then a first person fighter-to-fighter kind of RP.
The problem as it stands now is that this would be a serious committment on my part and the part of my limited staff. We would require hosting, development and monitoring of both the forums the game and a website as a way to convey information.
Understand that this is not a plea for anything, I will happily supply both time and funding for this project, so long as I know that people are interested in it. What we are merely asking is that you post your support for this project, and your interest. Enough interest, enough support, and we will commit to it further. Please try to understand our reluctance to undertake this task without the knowledge that the Wing Commander community as a whole would like to see us suceed.
