Mildly Dipped
Setting: The year is 2075 The month is December. American troops invaded, and annexed canada, two months ago. Since the 21st Century, the city of Toronto had become a glittering metropolis. After the Quebecua succeeded from canada, the canadian commonwealth fizzled out, bringing in a democracy- that was backed by america, militerally. This lifted the economic controls on the market, property taxes, and commodity price control. This encouraged growth in the cities, bringing emigration from america- and immigration to canada. The canadian population sky-rocketed exponentially, for a period of twenty years. Canada soon became one of the largest exporters of crafted goods, and the third largest importer of fossil fules. This attracted the attention of american leaders. Behind closed doors, the countries fore-most leaders debated annexing their neighbor to the north; bechause americas own resources were dwindling. Canada was a most valuable bartering chip, on the poker table of diplomacy. as it came- they finally were unanimous, on the need to annex canada; their was but one problem; a cause. the american public would not back such a hostile act; they needed a reason, for an invasion.
Norman Schwartscough III had a suggestion. A bombing. A bombing on an american city. This was met, with an applauding audience. The city of Ancorage would be bombed... by canadian "Terrorists". The bombing had taken place, leading to sperattic incidents involving bombings, fire fights, and other acts of terrorism on americans by "Canadian Terrorists". This was more than enough reason to invade canada, thought the american public. Little did the american public know, that the acts of terror, were committed by government trained "Black Ops" Agents. Two weeks after the first bombing, recruitment levels in the US Army had topped 2.3Million. 2.3 Million soldiers, waiting to take a swing at canada. The government had the reason, and the means to go too war. They only had to play the waiting game. Political accusations met question, after question. The animosity between america and canada, as the rest of the world watched. 12 months after the first bombing, american troops crossed the canadian border, meeting medium resistance. two months later, canada was the newest province of the USA.

The Province had become the center of american attention - martial law had been innacted. ontario became very quiet.

After Martial law had been enforced - The canadians had began to speculate- Question piled upon question. A few canadian citizens had horded weapons, before the american invasion. They were a private organization of a handful of concerned Canadian Citizens. The private organization had started as a Neighborhood watch program, and had evolved into a more militant organization,. Those who knew of the organization frowned upon them, before the war- they considered them to be Crazies, or Conspisy nuts. Though little did those nay-sayers know- that this organization - composed of a hand-full of loonies; and conspierisy nuts, would inspire a revolution.
 
If anyone is willing to Partake in an RP such as this, than I am willing to lead. I am not sure - as to what Rules I will use- but I am positive about the chericters I want to use. There are three factions. Resistance, American, or Null (civilians). Resistance leads attacks, and raids on the american militery- American militery trys to snuff out the resistance- and the Null (civilians) can go either way. Through the RP the canadian resistance will grow.
I have alot of time to hammer out fine details with anyone that is willing to Role-play.
 
As far as Weapons go - I want to use a mesh of Fallout 1, and moddern weapons -to present a happy medium. I have a good resource for modern firearms, if you need a referance

http://www.world.guns.ru

This is great resource for modern firearms of militery style weapons.

And NMA Is a great source for Fallout Weapons & Gear.
 
The story will be told cronlogically. The RP will start 2 houers before the first attack on an american supply convoy heading through the outskirts of onterio. This will give some time for dialog, and chericter development. Giving other RP's time to portrey their chericters as they want them to be viewed.

Road map

I'm thinking that the RP will take place in Toronto - however- there will be travel / relocation.

This is what suburbia would look like.

The City
 
The Factions : American


Black operations (What would be refereed to as Counter terrorists).
Black ops are considered the cream of the crop. They are covert soldiers, trained to blend into a hostile environment (or a friendly one- as shown in the ancorage bombings) Infiltrate, and illuminate. They are trained in the arts of camouflage, disguise, persuasion, and the martial arts. The black ops soldiers are fluent in 12 different languages, taught as standards.



The CSF (Centralized Security Force); which is a division of conscripted military force, of former canadian citizens. They are the conventional police force. It is based out of Toronto. The CSF is more sympathetic to Canadian freedom-fighters Than appearances let on - though the CSF is constantly under the microscope- of the american government.


"Aiding the Terrorist menace will not be tolerated! sympathizers will be executed, and their corpses displayed in proper crucifixion! Harboring of a terrorist is a crime punishable by death! Assisting a Terrorist is punishable by death! America offers you her protection! The Terrorists want to take your impending liberation! The future of your independence is in your hands!" Said General Schwartskauf III; in a broadly telecasted press conference.



Squad Dagger : Squad dagger is an elite team of 12 american soldiers. These soldiers are armed with the latest weapons, armor, and gear. They are the gestapo of the american military. Their sole mission is to sniff out resistance, and neutralize them, by any means nessacery. They don't know the meaning of subtlety.
"Just snuff the sonuvabitch!"
 
Faction : Canadian Resistance

To every annexation - there is resistance. This is the story of those that fight against the american military. This faction is composed of former working class citizens - who have turned, into freedom fighters. They are a lightly armed group of untrained blue, and white collar workers. Little do they know- that they will inosite a revolution. The canadian resistance fighters are armed with an assortment of 20th / 21st century small arms; that were stockpiled over a period of 16 years, by an older man.

His name Robert Dean Jurras. Jurras was born in ottawa, into an american family. Jurras joined the canadian military at the age of 17 1/2 - where he was sent to the battle field of quebec, after french terrorists kidnapped onterian diplomats, whilst quebecua military forces entered the provence of sacatchawan. This was a fairly short military operation -thoughJurras had seen more combat houers than most combat operatives Would see in a year of conflict. Jurras made himself a career in the canadian military. He was honorably discharged on april 19th, 2054.

Years later, he started a watch dog group. The group began to stock pile weapons slowly. Little did he know- that in the year of 2075; his organization would fight the americans.

"They take our land! Liberty! our freedoms! THey expect us to take it on the chin?! They expect us to submit?! Like hell! I say that we fight! We fight the americans! We Fight their oppression! We will overcome their dominion! Who's With us?!"
 
This all sounds very interesting. Watch the spelling of place names:

Ottawa (capital city of Canada)
Ontario
Quebec
Saskatchewan

Quebecer
Ontarian
 
I'm interested in playing, but I'm not sure how much time I'll have. I've got a few character ideas.

For one take on an American invasion and occupation of Canada, you might want to check out Harry Turtledove's alternate history novels. They are quite long, though. In this alternate history, the Confederacy successfully seceded from the U.S. One novel, How Few Remain, takes place in the early 1880's. The rest cover World Wars I and II and the period between them. Only some parts of them take place in Canada, which is involved because it is part of Great Britain (until the U.S. occupies it in WWI), an ally of the CSA against the USA.

There were also a few real American-based invasions of Canada in the 19th century, all of which Canada soundly defeated. The U.S. first attempted to invade Canada in the War of 1812, but the Canadians beat them off and actually invaded the U.S. right back. The Fenians, a group of armed Irish insurrectionists, attempted to invade Canada from the U.S. in 1866 and again in 1870. Their plan was to trade Canada back to Britain in exchange for Irish independence, but they didn't get far.
 
Does anyone have any suggestions for rules? I am thinking about either CoC, or abandoning Pen and Paper, and doing an RP that is simply about character development. If I go for CoC rules, than I will either allow character stat creation (invisablecastle works well) or - I will be making the chera's. however, a Bio/background will be the responsibility of the individual players. If I abandon P&P rules, than it will be the individual players responsibility to create the cheras.
 
Either of those would be fine with me. You might also want to consider the SPECIAL-based Fallout PnP rules that can be downloaded from NMA in PDF format. All of the weapons and armor from the Fallout games already have known stats in that system, so there would be no need to convert them to CoC.

Will we be playing just one character each, or will we play multiple characters from different factions?
 
I think I like Traq's cherecter development story line. I think, that for my own sanity, I will abandon any form of integer bassed rules, and leave the PnP rules to those that are more experianced in them than I. Those who have played fallout sould have a good idea of the gear available. Besides - just a sort-of layed back rp would work. though- If anyone is interested, feel free to post their cherecter bio.

Freeform like in Systematic Annihilation would be good. I'll post my main character here, and the other character ideas I had for the various factions I can use as significant NPCs.

Name: Eric Secord (real name Carl Flynn)
Age: 27
Ethnicity: Caucasian of Irish and Scottish descent

Bio: There is much unknown about Eric Secord's past. He tends to be very mysterious and flamboyant, and likes to thrill fellow members of the Canadian Resistance with tales of his daring exploits. His stories sometimes seem wild, and nobody is sure if they are all true or if he exaggerates, but nobody can doubt his exceptional skills in guerilla warfare who has seen him in action. He claims to be related to Laura Secord, the "Canadian Paul Revere" who rode to warn people of the impending American invasion in the War of 1812, thus helping the Canadians to repel the invasion and seize much of Michigan.

Eric's favorite tale of derring-do is the one about his participation in the Anchorage bombing, which is the most outlandish-sounding of his claims. Even so, his knowledge of the operational details of Anchorage is extremely accurate. Shortly after the bombing, he joined Robert Dean Jurras' organization in Toronto. He is one of the group's most patriotic members and one of the staunchest advocates of violent action against the Americans, and has strongly supported the plan to attack the supply convoy since its proposal.

Eric's attitude has led a few in the Resistance to scoff at his far-fetched stories or to be jealous of him, but most admire him and respect his abilities. Katie MacDonald, the Resistance cell's best explosives expert, is particularly enthralled by Eric and his accounts of his adventures. She is quite taken with him, and he is falling for her as well.

What none of his fellow Resistance members know is that Eric Secord is not at all what he seems, nor is that even his real name. In actuality, he is Sergeant Carl Flynn, a deep-cover American black ops soldier from Detroit. He did indeed participate in the Anchorage bombings as he claims, but as part of U.S. black ops unit. His excellent covert operations skills are in part a result of the black ops training he received. Eric Secord's past is mysterious because it does not exist.

Carl Flynn reports to Colonel William Donovan, who works for U.S. counterintelligence in Toronto. Carl's superiors do not want to stop the Resistance cell he has infiltrated. Rather, they want him to act as an agent provocateur, spurring it on to greater and greater acts of violence to suit their own purposes. Carl passes along information about the cell and its operations, and they allow it to prosper and gain strength, so that the legend of Robert Dean Jurras and Eric Secord grows and spreads, while using the information to help crush rival Resistance cells.

Of late, Carl has begun to develop a conscience, and feels guilty about carrying out attacks that kill and injure other Americans, including his fellow U.S. soldiers. His feelings for Katie also deepen the conflict within him.
