magnum2016 Posted June 3, 2014 Share Posted June 3, 2014 On the current server i am playing on I am planning to build an actual town (Similar to Woodbury but it would be friendly to everyone) but I need advice on how to make it actually successful. Details about the soon to be town: Government etc. The government will be a Republic led by a Council as well as a self-appointed leader (In the future we will have elections.) Any major acts that the Leader makes will have to be passed off by the council before they are official. The council itself will be anywhere from 2-15 members that will be expected to get on once per day Jobs Guard- patrols the towns perimeterSoldier- A more advanced version of guard that conducts missions outside of the towns wallsScavenger- Gets loot from the outside worldFarmer- Tends the farm fields for the townCarpenter- Keeps the infrastructure of the town top notch Infrastructure: The town will be 100% player-madeThe town itself is expected to be about the size of the the West Point Highschool if not slightly biggerIt will have a large perimeter wall that will surround the entire town There will be roughly 10-25 buildings inside the town Resources: Current resources and how the town will survive The town currently has enough food to feed 10 survivors for roughly 1-3 weeks however it will soon have a large farm system that will sustain the town. The town will be dependent on scavenging to gain supplies other than food The town in total (9mm/Shotgun) has about 2000 rounds/shells of ammunition Relations: The town will be kind and accepting to all survivors and even raiders as long as they do not pose a threat to the town. As long as everyone checks out at the gate they will be allowed inside to trade. The town is not afraid to kill other survivors and raiders if they are caught stealing or harassing or hurting other members. Penalty SystemPunishments the town will give to members and non-members if they are caught breaking rules Members: StealingWill be forced to give back items and have a long day of guard duty(If severe they will be executed) Murdering other membersExecution Murdering other survivorsDepending on relations with the survivor Disobeying OrdersWhipping-Execution Extra information The town will have atleast one guard on duty 24/7 to keep the town safe Please give me suggestions on what I should change Also if you are interested in joining this town please say so in this post robban279 and Kidlonewolf 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PhantomWarlock Posted June 3, 2014 Share Posted June 3, 2014 I would suggest a mayor-type, one leader government for a while. (Ironic, yes) Then, as it gets bigger, make it a republic. You should also build a jail of some sort. Now I noticed the last punishment. That seems a bit too harsh. If it's a republic, there shouldn't be torture. Maybe just jail time. But if you have to follow orders, that's more of a communistic government. Other than that, it's great! I would love to see this! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
magnum2016 Posted June 3, 2014 Author Share Posted June 3, 2014 There will be a Self-Appointed "Mayor" (Me) and for now the Council will only be about 2 people until the town actual matures into a civilization and things get into order. We will have a small jail which will be a series of rooms that will be locked up and players will have to stay in them for a small amount of time but this will mostly be for very petty crimes. As for the last punishment i believe i did not explain myself well enough if someone is caught sleeping on guard duty or scavenging on guard duty they will just be politely asked to stop and if it continues they will either get exiled (If they keep doing it alot) or simply get a different job that they can handle.But if we are in a gunfight and one of our members runs away or if i ask a guard to watch a visitor and they stop watching them and the visitor ends up doing a crime the guard may be punished in terms of getting hit with a baseball bat or may not get rations for awhile and as i said in rare situations execution. And well it is a republic but the world is not the way it use to be, i will actually since you brought it up be more caring to members however. And well it is a community all members are expected to help and follow orders in terms of farming etc. (They will not be strict orders unless we are in combat) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Midnooter Posted June 3, 2014 Share Posted June 3, 2014 This seems really interesting.. but shouldnt you have more roles to sustain besides the already set council Mayor and scavenger, are you planning to make a role for people to be the farmers? Also where would this base be on the map?I will be following this topic.EDIT #1 Also is this going to be a role-play town or an actual lets just freaking survive town? EDIT #2 Aren't you the Co-Owner on the server your talking about? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
magnum2016 Posted June 3, 2014 Author Share Posted June 3, 2014 We do have more roles i just forgot to add them (Added them) The base will be uploaded when it is complete, 1. This is a 100% roleplay town but we will have a struggle to survive at some times 2. And yes i am the Co-Admin of the server however no items will be spawned for the town at all Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

magnum2016 Posted June 3, 2014 Author Share Posted June 3, 2014 Of course I will begin construction and complete construction of the town as soon as i can today Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Connall Posted June 4, 2014 Share Posted June 4, 2014 I'm interested only because I would become interested in the society classes/power classes that would form and their interaction with other classes of people.

robban279 Posted June 4, 2014 Share Posted June 4, 2014 Im very interested in this idea, I love to play the obedient thug/soldier/guard who only follow orders... Can imagine Beeing a farmer or a construction worker too... Any role really, I only lack time to play at periods due to work.. But can easily offer my service to the town about 2 hours per day. If RP is involved in gameplay it's just more fun! Great idea I look forward to this you have a teamspeak server or Skype as well or what? As mentioned before: great idea I'd be glad to support in any way. I'm an experienced SP player, have had this game since a few years back and I have no trouble finding my way in the game or to undertake any tasks asked of me.I can add it's ideas like this that makes me interested in MP...Also I wonder what version of the game we'd run?Good luck and if you need any extra hand to help out don't hesitate to ask.

magnum2016 Posted June 4, 2014 Author Share Posted June 4, 2014 Here is a little preview of the town so far (Really it is just the outer wall and at that it is only the north-eastern side of the wall. Upon completion the outer-wall will have a railing as well as some guard towers on each side of the wall. ( I need some volunteers to do some wood chopping for me) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Upon completion the outer-wall will have a railing as well as some guard towers on each side of the wall. ( I need some volunteers to do some wood chopping for me) Looks like a decent walkway around the perimeter! Id chop wood for you but I'm only sneaking a few minuets online while my fiancee finishes dinner. This is just what i have been looking for! I loved roleplay servers, but they all kinda broke the roleplay vibe for me due to not having a town to start it from. That's why I would like to join and help the community once i get some spare time(two days). I would like and also do whatever it takes to get a seat on the council. Being on the council would work better for me since i won't be able to go on as many long loot runs or time demanding task, Because i will be going afk frequently due to work and especially for my newborn son. I can be on several hours a day just not all at once. I could have course offer you ideas and feed back on the town. I would take our survival, safety, and happiness into every decision i would make or agree/disagree for the leader to make. I'm sure you would love to have me join as much as id love to. Thanks for the consideration. robban279 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And as i have told many people do not feel bad or anything if you cannot get on 24/7, 1 player who can get on once a day for 2 hours is better than no one at all.
