So lately I have been thinking of starting an RPG that is kind of a mish mash between Manoyama Academy and Criminal Business in terms of gameplay, but set during a large war in the 50's (in a world different from ours). An RPG where one can be a soldier for any army: communist or anti-communist, a citizen, or perhaps an insurgent. No ranks that allow the players to lead entire armies, but more like either working with orders, or ordering a small company of soldiers/citizens/insurgents to fight for the greater good. Essentially an army RP/RPG that acts like an FPS.

However, shooting commies/anti-commies with weird 50's guns won't be all for this RPG. There can be many roles, combat and non-combat, to play out in the military/insurgent militas, from translators, to codebreakers, to medics, and perhaps even spies. Or in the case of citizens that live in a harsh regime or environment, try to live a tale of survival. 

What makes this idea similar to Manoyama Academy is that there will be skills for players to upgrade, such as skills with using a specific weapon, using a specific language, or even simply general skills like charisma. And what makes this idea similar to Criminal Business is the way the idea approaches characters and gunplay: application needed; gunplay is similar or the same to CB gunplay, yada yada ya.

I will not go too full into detail of this idea, or the plot, but basically two great communist powers were having a cold war with an uneasy alliance between a quasi-fascist absolute monarchy and a large democratic nation over a whole continent, and eventually the world, and this cold war blows over due to a string of incidents. Due to the lack of nukes, it was easier for this "cold war" to go hot. It's a clash of Communism vs Democratic Capitalism vs Fascism, socialist unions vs colonial empires, nationalism vs egalitarianism.

hello. if you happened to come back to this dead forum to re-read my forum games, i.e. The Vigilante, Infinity Tower, Criminal Business (for nostalgia?), you are out of luck. I saved each game to my computer in PDF form. Needless to say, these forum games are probably deleted. However, if you pm me on Discord (Oh shit, he#4107), I might be able to give them to you.

Why?
1. too much references to stuff close IRL friends or family will understand.
2. shit writing
3. a few things in CB prob put me on a list

So yeah.
