Well I've got a slough(Trying to sound smart!) of characters in all roles so im game for anything I guess.
~Adam
JT: Adam is that kid who wants to play stick ball with the neighborhood Cul-de-sac with the rest of us older kids and we tell him he is too young, but he says he is old enough and always chases down the foul balls.
JT:Adam is the kid that we lower into the sewer to get the balls that fall in.
JT:He jumps around "Iwanna play!" andwe just look over him, but he still hovers in RF
Norway - Oslo (Capital City)[/b] ~ Reason behind the main event being in Oslo, is because it's pretty much bordering onto Sweden (with Kongsvinger closer to the border nearby) and will set the scene nicely when it comes down to the saboteurs fleeing. If we play out that part of this story that is.
The Scenario:[/b] The British and Norwegian (Resistance) forces combined, place a prototype Dirty-Bomb within a highly sought after German compound in Oslo. This compound will contain some decorated infrastructure monuments to the Reich; in laymen's terms, decorated officers and political bodies stationed in Oslo, perhaps attending a meeting.
Valkyrie style, this bomb goes off and does significant damage, but rather it being completely explosive orientated (it will be to a degree), it's primarily radioactive and blotters the compound, as well as the surrounding area, with toxic waste. Hence making people sick, unwell and poisoning those affected by the blast.
Now, before you say anything, I know dirty-bombs didn't entirely come to light until the twenty-first century, but this is only a prototype, the story is fictional and the bomb will be mounted as a "failed attempt" by the Nazi regime, as well as covering up the radioactive incident. So it didn't cause panic and undermined the Allied attack.
This story, again, will be completely fictional and unrelated (mostly) to WWII depictions and events of the time. So don't take the brass facts to heart, we're meddling with a new possible story and avenue of events with this story campaign, hopefully it puts a new spin on things for a while.
The Castings:[/b] Allied (Saboteurs): The Allies in this plot will consist of British and Norwegian, unless voted otherwise. If we have more American or Russian characters willing to play the Allied role, then things may change, but the British did have bonds with the Norwegians and so it made some logical sense for them to be the primary link within this story as saboteurs.
If so, I'm willing to use my British character and whomever else would be willing to coincide with this plot?

Axis:[/b] The Axis will be the victims during this purged attack, but the story will soon turn to them being the hunters of this major situation. After lengthy investigations, perhaps they begin to hunt down those involved with the attack? Ensuing a chase across the Swedish border to catch the culprits?
I've taken the liberty of making Mac the lead Axis commander during this story, as I would assume the Gestapo would play a prime part in investigating the matter at hand.

With all that said above, are you all happy with the scenario I've outlined and ready to take part in this story campaign? If so, post below with the characters you are going to use in this campaign and you will officially be added to the casting list. If your character is unable to fit into the main casting role, I will try my best to loop you into the plot somewhere, if not, you may have to change your character!
I hope you all enjoy this scenario, this is our story, so it's open to your twists and suggestions. If you do wish to add something to the story, that is largely relevant to the story, please suggest it here before posting it during role play. It could damage the actual flow of the plot otherwise and therefore damage the story's content. So please be mindful of the basic path we're taking and if you do wish to add something, announce it here for debate first. Thank you! ~Danny
I assume I don't have to sign in as Gus now since Gus is already signed in. Also I'm lazy.
And I really like that plot. I can already see how my first post is going to go. Gus is driving a few comrades to a Nazi rally or something, but he stops to pick up a pretty lady who is going in the opposite direction.
Another agent is like, "Dammit Messer, we can't be late".
And Gus is all, "Calm down, it'll just be 5 minutes, and the rally will still be there."
Edit: Perhaps before the bomb attack, there's a thread the British and Norwegians attack the heavy water plant, and along with destroying the plant's machinery, they find and steal the material to build an atomic bomb?

On a side note, that's quite an interesting idea Mac and I wasn't aware of that event occurring during the war. We could consider it, however, it may prolong the actual event of this story campaign? That's one of the only downfalls. ~Danny

Well Punk, do you have any plans for the Allies while the Germans are reacting to the explosion? I mean, what will the Allied characters be doing while the German characters are in that thread? Perhaps while we Germans are posting in that thread, the Allies could be doing the factory raid, set a few months before the German one.
Sorry, belated response to this thread, I got waylaid on getting the skill-point update completed and then genuinely forgot we were setting this story campaign up. Okkkayyy, in response to you Mac, yes that's a brilliant idea and something that could easily be done; going back in time and accomplishing the said events leading up to the main event.
If everyone's still interested in this, I'll begin formulating a series of threads to take place. As it stands, it will be something like this:
THREAD 1: Instantaneously, the MAIN EVENT!
[/b] (ALLIES/NEUTRAL ONLY) ~ Straight away, we'd have the Allies placing the charges/bombs and explosion occur. This thread could possibly be broken down into two parts, but seeing as we have a lot of ground to cover, we could easily pack it into one single thread with enough enthusiasm.
[/li][li] SPIN-OFF THREAD: Racing to the scene![/b] (AXIS ONLY) ~ Whilst the Allies are planting the charges in THREAD 1, the Axis have just received intelligence of the bomb-plot and make haste to the scene. This thread is entirely optional and will be left down to the German participants to do with as they wish. How they got their intelligence, what they do, where they go, etc...
[/li][li] THREAD 2: The Aftermath.[/b] (AXIS/NEUTRAL ONLY) ~ The Gestapo/Germans inspect the damage done and attempt to find clues to the culprits; whilst tackling the media and public hysteria. Eventually, they'll get their lead on their suspects...
[/li][li] SPIN-OFF THREAD: Racing to the border![/B] (ALLIED ONLY) ~ The Allies flee occupied Norway and head towards Switzerland. This thread will briefly show the Allies' journey across Norway, realising the Germans are now hunting them.
[/li][li] THREAD 3: Danger-Close! (AXIS/ALLIED ONLY) ~ This will be the first of a possible two or three threads, where the Axis have caught up with the fleeing Allies. We can negotiate whether Allied prisoners are captured, escape or otherwise. Depending how we feel, we may continue the chase for as long as we wish and negotiate a final outcome to the story, as and when. [/li][/ul]
That's the bare skeleton structure of how the threads will occur. If happy, this storyline may start soon and we can get this story-campaign on the roll. ~Danny
