Roleplaying Rules

• This forum is about the battles, social interaction between soldiers, and civilian life of World War II. There will be no roleplaying of the Holocaust or important groups involved with it, the subject is too sensitive
• Keep cursing to a minimum. Simple swears such as 'damn', etc. aren't a big deal
• Keep roleplaying physically realistic. You aren't going to be able to use your sniper to get a direct head-shot on a bomber's pilot who is kilometers high in the air, and you aren't going to penetrate a Tiger's armor with small arms fire
• No God-mode. This means your character can't get hurt or has superhuman abilities.
• You may not roleplay as famous people such as "Mad Jack" Churchill or use famous vehicles such as the Enola Gay
• Your character is not locked to a specific theatre. Even if your character is Japanese, you can play in the European Theatre. (Subject to change)
  
• Although the roleplay is not totally historic, there will be no prototype or blueprint weapons. These vehicles will be reserved for special events. No Cold-War era vehicles either.
  
• Roleplay in the third person
• NPCs are allowed
• For vehicles such as tanks and bombers and ships, the character can only take one position in the vehicle (driver, gunner, loader, commander Etc.) and the rest of the positions are filled by NPCs that you control. Other members can take unfilled positions in your vehicle if you invite them. Interaction between characters in vehicles is assumed to be held over radio or in person when not fighting.
• Do not kill another member-owned character without permission
• Your characters weaponry must be specific to the country they are affiliated with. No British characters driving Japanese tanks and no Germans sailing an American ship, and so on. Exceptions apply for countries that received mainly lend-lease vehicles, such as Australia and Canada. You may only use weaponry from a different country if you pick it up off the battlefield during a roleplay.
  
• Try to keep the roleplay in English (your character is assumed to speak in their native language) with the exception of your charactet's speech, which is optional. Translating the speech is optional, but greatly appreciated.
