I was thinking to do a sci-fi dice roll RP, as mentioned above.The RP would take place in a research facility where the clones (You) would be tested for combat purposes,I plan deaths to be permanent (Though you will be able to reapply) and the difficulty to be somewhat hard.But as long you aren't alone (Up to 6 players in-game,unlimited queue and you all would be on the same team), you won't suffer the difficulty too much...
As for the rolling "system"? I will use an online dice roller for that, 8 sides. 1-4 Would vary as shades of failure (You cannot fail a simple action such as walking, but just maybe if you roll a 1 twice) 5-8 would vary as shades of successes, I will allow 2 major actions at one turn.
And for obvious reasons,i would be the only one rolling for everyone...So, how many would join this RP if i made it?
PS:I'm not a native english speaker, so please do point out any errors! |

| There should be a space between parentheses and punctuation outside the parentheses. There should be a space after a comma or period. |

"system"?
Excuse me sir, but I'll have to ask you to kindly tuck that question mark inside your bag.

@birm Right,Forgot to use that here... "And for obvious reasons,i would", Though i guess i did fine job at the rest of the post. Thanks!
@PurringT Noted as well, thanks.
@Mrvincent Sorry, I have no idea why I put that question mark there...
@Pickachu I guess I will make it if I reach 6 potential role-players, though I can lower it to 3-5, I don't think this can work below 2 since i aim it to be team/squad based and there will be a need for different roles.
@hwen4 Yep! I will of course also use "modifiers" EXAMPLE Assume night or any low visibility environment, you will have this status STATUS -Partially blinded (low visibility) , -3 to any action involving perception. To overcome this you must have something that generates light, or simply have night vision goggles. Of course if you have eyes that don't entirely (Or don't require at all) light, The status won't be present. Planning for those to be purchased at the "Omega Terminal", A somewhat fancy way of saying... shop. |

| This could work if done well, though an RP relies on a lot more then merely the system used to calculate the outcome of encounters. |

Yet RPG's are distinguished by the system they use mage. Table-Top, I mean. |

You can have the best dice roll system ever seen in an RP and it won't mean anything if the plot is poor. |

Oh, I didn't really work on the plot... though here is what I have so far. SPOILERS FOR THIS POSSIBLE PLOT
PLOT After 2-4 experiments a faint sound can be heard from beyond the room you are inside, the sound is followed by muffled voice. after completing an objective the gigantic room will shake, along with the slight glow on the walls being removed... 2-3 Actions later the room walls will be breached and humans in black, slightly glowing armor will enter through the blasted wall. The players will be overpowered by an extreme sensation of pain... SPOILERS OVER
That's what I have in mind right now |

Alright, I feel like I should explain more on actions...
Actions are going to be limited to 2 minors actions, Two major actions. A minor action should be a simple action (running, communication for example)
EXAMPLE
Jonathan starts RUNNING away from the robot and yells "Run!"
The two actions here are RUNNING and COMMUNICATION.
Major actions should be defined as tasks that are more complex and are more difficult to perform, Those would for example be attacking and bypassing an object (a fence, desk, table etc)
EXAMPLE
Jonathan starts climbing over the fence.
This is a pretty damn bad example since I couldn't find a second major action that would make sense but yeah... The action here is BYPASSING AN OBJECT.
One roll will effect all of yours action and it is possible to be interrupted by something. causing the rest of the queue to disappear.
...I think this is rather poorly constructed, any feedback? please?
