jeff744 Posted February 11, 2009 Report Share Posted February 11, 2009 OOC: That would be my water. You'd be awfully suspicious just standing there. I'd prefer you make that ship announcement in a less Closed RP. OOC: changed it already, they will arrive at the time of the attack. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd like to you post your movements in a new thread somewhere where there's no giant debate if I have a right to know that or not because this is a closed RP Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OOC: He didn't say how close (you don't control all of the water in the mediterranean, after all) and the point of being in fishing and other private boats is so that you look like you're doing something else.

Rebel Virginia Posted February 11, 2009 Author Report Share Posted February 11, 2009 (edited) My forces are now disguised on merchant ships, fishing ships, etc, they will be moving to Sicily and timed to arrive at the time of the first shots. "I take it they're in other countries?" inquired the Pope. "If so, we can arrange that they'll be able to pass through the Straits of Gibraltar. Granted they'll have to be disguised well, and completely unarmed. It is a certainty that Gebivian authorities will search ships passing through their waters, so they will have to be unarmed in order to arrive in Sicily without raising any eyebrows along the way. As for arms, yes, they'll need them in order to take the island, but rest assuredI know someone who will be able to provide them once your men are in position."

That's not a popular area to be. OOC: Within what sort of distance? Distance to get there on a boat? They could be hundreds of miles away and still be able to get there when they're told to. All it takes is a little planning. IC: "It seems to me that entry through the Straight of Gibraltar would be unwise, what with its close proximity to your enemy. A route through the Suez Canal or even on foot until you reach the shore would have a higher chance of success." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gebiv Posted February 11, 2009 Report Share Posted February 11, 2009 OOC: A few rules you'll want to keep in mind. You need your stuff to come from somewhere. If you don't have a nation, someone had to make it. So do the people need to come from somewhere. There's also a pretty strict ruling on roleplaying other people's population without their permission. There's also a ruling on RP'ing the past. You can only RP for right now, not what happened before. As long as you stick to those, you'll be fine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JEDCJT Posted February 11, 2009 Report Share Posted February 11, 2009 OOC: Oh, and by the way, your ships cannot come from the direction of Byzantium. Simple as that. The Dardanelles and Bosporus are closed (save for a few), and any ships that ventures close to Byzantine waters (the waters around Greece and Turkey) without prior permission are sunk without warning.

"Well, then I'll have to call some allies of mine and get them armed. Also, Mr. X, I'm going to need your people ready to start trouble on Gebiv's border within the week." The train came a halt.

OOC: Have you explained this earlier or are you RPing the past yourself? Not to mention that watching all of the tens of thousands of ships in that sea at any one time (especially when they're not in water controlled by you) with a navy that's probably a few dozen ships at most seems just a little impossible.

jeff744 Posted February 11, 2009 Report Share Posted February 11, 2009 Fukuzawa Kokichi followed the pope, checking over his shoulder occasionally, he had developed a habit of it while trying to assemble his forces due to the high risks he had taken.

OOC: I've explained it before, obviously. When they're in my waters, they're being watched. You also have to take into account sonar, land based monitoring, and allied satellites.
