well, there could be bonus objectives to destroy stuff too, IE 'get resource points for destroying/killing X, Y, Z'
How can you be in two places at once when you're not anywhere at all?Carrie Emerson LeMay:
Almost everything is good at this point, just one thing left. Your Utility seems more like a Defense Ability. You could probably use that for a higher level, but at the present your Utility ability should be something else that directly affects something besides you or your opponents damage calculations.
Approval pending this change.
Deliah Stirling
Wisp entry states, " Its legend began in the 12th Century." What does this mean?
Offensive Ability is incredibly limited. I'll allow it but it won't see a whole lot of use so I strongly suggest a change.
I'm not entirely sure what Airborne Assault does. Could you clarify?
Nero isn't taken.
We got a whole two millenia of Central European military leaders to pull from; there've been a bunch of participants in major wars in that area especially in the last 600 years, including many of military history's greatest minds.

How can you be in two places at once when you're not anywhere at all?my vote is for Gustavus Adolphus Magnus.
My vote is ALWAYS for Gustav II
(Hell with him you can pick any weapon class you want!)
How can you be in two places at once when you're not anywhere at all?Halsey and Stirling served in WWI
How can you be in two places at once when you're not anywhere at all?Oh, just an inside joke, if you've ever seen Soul Eater. "My legend began in the 12th Century" is a favorite catchphrase of Excalibur in that show. The regimental crest of the 22 SAS Regiment is a winged Excalibur. I thought it was pretty funny anyway.
Rrrrrroger.
Since the RP's combat system seems to be set up like a tactical RPG, I figured that everyone would begin the game within a limited "deployment zone". The idea was that with Airborne Assault, Deliah could drop herself onto a hex on a different part of the map but it is unreliable and she will always land a few hexes away from the intended area, and if she lands in an area that she couldn't legally move into (like water), she would be moved to the closest legal hex and take damage due to mishap. In other words, a high risk high reward maneuver just like parachuting.
and that's how Magical!Stirling became The Clutz

How can you be in two places at once when you're not anywhere at all?I'm still working on the background and appearance but for the moment, I've updated
my offensive and utility skills and wanted to see if they were okay.
- Name: Katerina "Katyusha" Zhukov
- Warlord: Marshal Georgy Zhukov
- Wisp: A miniature T-34
- Age: 18
- Appearance: Russian cadet of the Georgy Zhukov Command Academy
◊
- Magical Girl Appearance': Come with me, comrades!
- History: Born in St. Petersburg, Katerina was raised on her grandfather's stories of the Great Patriotic War and, ignorant of the destruction caused only a few years before with the collapse of the USSR, decided she would go into the military and become a famous national hero. She worked hard and studied and was finally accepted into the Georgy Zhukov Command Academy of the Air Defense Forces. However, later that same year she was assaulted by a baseball-sized T-34 in the middle of the mess hall. A few days later (after she'd had dreams of razing Berlin to the ground) it was determined that what had happened to her was similar to other cases around the globe, and the Russian military had her transferred to the newly-established multinational academy (of which Russia was one of the founding members, and they were quite pleased to finally have a student attending).
- Attribute: Earth
- Movement: TBD
- Weapon Type: Long Range
- Abilities:
- Offensive: Operation Bagration: +1 after surviving an enemy attack.
- Defensive: Russian Resilience: -1 to enemy melee attacks.
- Utility: Theatre Commander: At the beginning of a match, Katyusha can select which weapon type she wishes to use on that map.

"Your mission is not to nuke the squid god." —FaramirThat'... borky. But then again, Parable likes to throw Short Range enemies at us, so I don't mind.
On empty crossroads, seek the eclipse -- for when Sol and Lua align, the lost shall find their way home.Glad to have you, Wysp! I was hoping some of the old players would rejoin.
Movement: 6
Nona! Nitpick on the History section, Wisps are baseball sized, not soccer ball sized.
Not on board with the Utility though, especially for a low level character. Please think of something else on that one before I can fully accept Katerina.

Attacks against bonus objectives?
Those are kinda the things that you don't want to attack.
