Stupid question: is there a move limit for Monsters ?

Practical answer: Yes. You start with One if you have a normal monster, or Two if you are a Human-like. My fault, I knew I should have bolded them :0.

Unpractical answer: There is not upper limit on moves, however you can only get them at Level Ups, and it may or may not cost points that could go to stats. Practically, there will probably not be a lot of available moves for single creatures, and many will be better versions of moves the creatures already have.

That's what I suspected. Will modify my sheet accordingly then !

Spoiler: Anfisa, Harpy (click to show/hide)

Name: Anfisa - Harpy
Description:
A strapping young harpy only thirty years of age, Anfisa is a typical example of her race; Gray-brown wings reminiscent of a vulture and enabling flight adorn her arms, her lithe form plumed, with wicked fangs instead of toes. Neither her hooked nose, buzz-cut raven hair, agressively slanted eyes, nor barren chest, are in line with any form of "classical beauty" - her alien appearance reminiscent of just why harpies have found the need to hunt fathers to their race in past times. Her crude way of talking, and "agressive" pursuit of men, is also far removed from any and all female ideals of her time.

Background:
While Anfisas aunts and elder sisters have taught her well in the methods of her race, raidings and kidnapping procurring men has become increasingly diffcult, on account of humanities recent advances in technology. Unlike their foremothers, young harpies are increasingly forced to lay down their nomadic lifestyle of banditry, and align herselves with the powers in place.

Anfisas reasons for joining the army, are two-fold. For one, there are those pending charges of banditry from several balkan countries, supplemented with shameful footnotes of "forced companionship", plus that one charge of attempted piracy. Attacking a british ship, in hindsight, might have been a bad idea on her flights part. The other point, is that it was made clear to her that such doings won't be allowed any longer - just like any supernatural means of seduction (granted though, that such are not the ways of her race). Her flights worship of Ares, and that her future "hunting grounds" are expected to be almost void of other women, might also have weighted in on her decision.
Footnote: While I find the neo?-classical harpy an interesting character to explore, I am willing to tone it down to "only" banditry, should it rub people the wrong way.
Inventory: Burning Torch Necklace in Bronze (Ares Idol)
Type: Human-Like

Attack: 30
Defense: 15

Perception: 25

Moves:
Diving Charge (Reckless Attack): The Harpy takes to the winds, the aerial approach of claws allowing her to deal greater damage at the cost of lowering her own defences. Base Damage 20, 75% Defense and Evade on Turn used )
Flight (Another Day): Ju~st what it sounds like. Winged Retreat from the fight, quite possibly in direction of the medic tents.

Woopseis, wrong tab :0.

Currently, all finished character sheets have been put in the OP. There are two humans, one focusing on attack and one balanced. The Human-like seems to be an agile attacker. I'll give it a couple of more days for everyone who expressed interest to at least see we have character sheets now, then the game will start. Characters can still join after the game starts, at any time, with no waitlist.

Is it time for us to kick some Nazi ass?

Is it time for us to kick some Nazi ass?

Actually, we needn't beat that dead horse again. The great depression and its aftermath, made multiple countries weak enough that coups were made on the old government. To name a few; Mussolini in Italy, Vargas in Brazil, the Military Clique in Japan, Hitler in Germany, Metaxas in Greece, Stalin in the Soviet Union, Franco in Spain.

Either way, as we are playing in a fantasy+ "world", the allies and the axis - or their actions - may very well be different from history.

Let's see how viable this build is.

Not yet, 3/6 people who have expressed interest have currently signed up. I think I will start Monday, after work.

Either way, as we are playing in a fantasy+ "world", the allies and the axis - or their actions - may very well be different from history.

Allies and Axis are /roughly/ the same nations as in the Real World, for the sake of simplicity and historical interest. Some of their actions are certainly different, and I am on the fence of leaving Historical leaders in place or replacing them with fictional ones (leaning towards fictional). For example, the Nazis exist, but are *probably* less Nazi-ish than in real life (Stirk can hardly right an effective story involving concentration camps :0. Really a downer there. If something like that exists in the setting, none of the characters know about it.) and *probably* aren't lead by Hitler.

Front wise, you will probably be hopping around fighting a diverse array of enemies to whatever the plot demands. The battles will be based very loosely on actual battles from the war, which means the course of the war can easily be changed by player actions. Nazis will be shot (It wouldn't be a WWII game without Nazi-shaped targets ), so will Imperial Japanese troops (at least some of my own great grandparents fought in this front, and considering how large and influence the Japanese had on the genre it is only fair), so will the Italians, the Greek are still fighting the Axis forces, the Soviets are (at least going to be) part of the Allies, Spain will *try* to stay /neutral/ as in real life (but we will have to see how well that works out ).

Spoiler: Ferratus, Animated Armor (click to show/hide)

Name: Ferratus (Animated Armor)
Description: A slightly larger than human, rune-covered suit of blackened masterwork armor straight out of the medieval times. A barely visible red gas can be seen coming out of the armor. The helmet's eye-slits glow an intense red.
Inventory: Masterwork long-sword and a M2 Browning .50 Cal, modified for human-like monster use.
Type: Human-Like
HP: (45) 450
Attack: 25
Defense: 60
Evade: 0
Perception: 20
Ability: 0
Moves:
Another Day (Runes of Absolute Defense): The runes covering Ferratus shine a blinding red and turn his armor invulnerable, allowing him to retreat with ease.
Boosted Attack (Spirit Infusion): Ferratus infuses his ammunition (or his sword) with his spirit energy, making it more damaging. Base Damage 15, can be used once every two turns.

1. You have to have at least a 1 in every Stat (Mostly to avoid divide by zero errors, a little bit for balance).
2. Would you mind choosing a weaker weapon? As a Human-like, you are capable of using human weaponry. Having a Browning as your starting 10 damage weapon makes it hard to upgrade to something stronger later in the game  .

Adjusted my stats and swapped the M2 to a BAR.

How...familiar

[Hawk132]

I like using 'Ferratus' as the name for most of my animated armor characters. It sounds pretty good, and it means 'covered in iron' so it also fits pretty well meaning-wise.

[Stirk]

Alright! Game is up! As planned, you are starting in boot camp, with major modifications to make it fit in a game . Go ahead and start as soon as you posted your character sheets.
