No rush jcb112, there's still time, I've got to get the news articles ready and posted before the story begins in earnest.

Sounds quite interesting and fun! I look forward to seeing what kind of outcomes we can create with our group actions! lol and oh dear! A patient getting patched up by Alcovy who openly lies to him? lol I fear this person will need a Doctor for the Doctor he ended up with! XD It might be a good chance to show off Alcovy's sadistic streak though! And a special guest character you say? I'm quite interested over that!! I eagerly look forward to this! I think I will start a thread and take care of a few personal details before we begin to get my crew ready and in shape for this adventure!

I'm back, sorry about the long delay, the story is nearly set, just finishing storyboarding the three acts on my laptop office app. In the mean time I need your input on a cosmetic matter in the story. I'm planning to introduce another Normandy class frigate into the WoR story and I need you all to help with the name. I've already came up with five candidates based on Alliance nomenclature protocols and y'all are free to vote for them or suggest another one if these five don't float your boat (no pun intended).
Red Cliffs, named for the battle in 208 A.D. between Cao Cao and Sun Quan's forces
Orleans, named for the final days of the Siege of Orleans and the beginning of Joan of Arc's legend.
Gallipoli, named for the failed attempt to take the Ottoman Empire's capital and the sacrifices of the ANZAC forces present.
Gettysburg, named for the largest battle on American soil in 1863 A.D.
Vienna, named for the siege between the Hapsburg Dynasty and Sulyman the Great (probably spelled his name wrong).

Vienna, to me, sounds most natural and fluid.

I was about to vote Orleans because duh, but Vienna rolls better on the tongue.

I'd say the Gallipoli. Just for the sole reason that the Normandy was named after the Battle of Normandy in World War 2, and Gallipoli's named after the campaign in World War 1, you know, just personal preferences here.
But Vienna would be a close second, yes, my first choice would still be Gallipoli.

As far as names for Frigates go if you don't mind, what do you think of the MSV Tripoli for your ship? lol there's something about the sounds of naming off Tripoli and Normandy in a list together that just has a certain ring to it. Of course that's just me! As always I'm always willing and ready to help and ready for any idea you can give me about this idea for when the thread is launched.

I like the enthusiasm Baychimocrew, Tripoli has a certain resonance, but which engagement are you referring to? The american police action against the Barbary Pirates, or the Hapsburg Empire's fight against the Ottoman sponsored pirates? In terms of scale Tripoli pales in comparison to the magnitude of Normandy Beach, Agincourt or the current candidates I've listed. As for the rp idea, it's nearly come together, just a couple more articles and the story will begin proper.
Oh, and it seems that the new Normandy class frigate will be the Vienna if the vote is any indicator. Unless we get a lot of aussie votes for Gallipoli.

lol I've been known to be a real enthusiastic man! Glad I could help in any way I can! Again I am really looking forward to this thread! lol and Admittedly I didn't have a specific engagement in mind for the name more or anything like that for the name ^^' It was actually more inspired by a song I've heard every now and again regarding the army www.youtube.com/watch?v=EAx_vDlgyXk lol and I thought it sounded cool along side the Normandy XD AND if you're interested I did have a few ideas regarding the alliance after the Reaper war!

Annnnd...I'm back after a severe computer problem (hard drive suffering major bugs). Sorry for the complete blackout but events conspired to take me away from our newly grown community, my apologies for no heads up.
That song Baychimocrew, it's not for the Army, it's Marine Corps, when I was in the corps we sung it way too often, lol. But yeah, the Marines earned their spurs during the fight with the Barbary pirates. Good looking out for that little historical tidbit.
All newcomers will be welcome and worked in at one point or another, a bit of warning, the story will start as two unrelated mysteries along with the previous news articles forshadowing what is to come. Hopefully it'll display the best and worst of the asari republics along with each and every one of you. Just means I need to burn the midnight oil creating credible npc's and making sure I do my Mass Effect homework before lighting the fuse.
And thank you for being so patient, especially the ones who know me best (Preeya, Tal, Four), and again, sorry for the communication blackout.

Awesome to see you back again! But don't worry, there's no need to apologize - Real life happens, and no one will rush you. As much as I am looking forward to our story arc, I know how much work it can be to properly organize such a big project. Take all the time you need here, and I'm pretty sure we ill find good ways to integrate newcomers into the story, and everyone will be helpful here.
