The recent zombie invasion roleplay thread inspired me to do this one. If you have heard of the book "Romance of the three kingdoms" or have played dynasty warriors, you know what this is going to be. This takes place from 180 AD, to 265 AD, starting with the yellow turban rebellion, and ending with the founding of the Jin dynasty. The story, is there are three major warlords, each leading a kingdom. Wei, Wu, and Shu, Wei's lord: Cao Cao, Wu, Sun Jian, and Shu, Liu Bei. Well, I probably shouldnt expand the story out too much in the main post, lets go along with it as the RP continues, shall we? Now, the rules of creating a character. Your character must have a chinese surname, and a name. E.G. "Sun" is the surname of "Jian" and pick a kingdom to serve, whether it be Wei, Wu, or Shu. This is my first RP thread, so, please keep your expectations low.
EDIT: If you call it first, you can either be Cao Cao, Sun Jian, or Liu Bei.

184 AD: Zhang Jiao, the former governer of Ji province, sparks a rebellion. Zhang Jiao's rebellion, also known as "The yellow turban Rebellion" is a religious sect, of the "Way of peace" This rebellion causes chaos within the Han Dynasty, and the three warlords, Cao Cao, Sun Jian, and Liu Bei, are all comissioned to join the army to quell this rebellion. This army, led by "He Jin" meets the yellow turbans on the field of battle at Ji province.
My character, Cao Pi, Cao Cao's second son, also participates in this battle. And, we continue from there.

At the main camp, I get to the armory, and prepare for the battle, and observe the Han army.
"So many people to quell such a rediculous rebellion... they've been overestimated"

Leading the resistance forces is general Ma Yuanyi. He maneuver his warrior troops - approximately a 1000 in number - along the battlefield. Their plan of attacking are unknown. The force itself is made up of cavalry, spear-men, sword-men, etc.

The landscape of the battlefield is as follows: Ground sandy, cliffs above one turban base, and another one above a han base, easy ambush targets. Han main camp is directly adjacent to the turban one, but the terrain in getting there is complex, many steep hills, and canyons, and altars scatted across the turban bases used for magic.
With that being said:
Cao Pi leads his own separate squad of troops, and they are swordsmen, spearmen, and archers. Some carry oil. Approximately 850 in number. Plan of attacking is unknown.

Any character is allowed. Notice how I play as cao pi, and in reality, he'd be one year old.

He Jin then rallies the Han army, prepared to leave the main camp and charge the yellow turbans.
He Jin: "Zhang Jiao must be punished for causing this rebellion! Cao Cao! Lead your army east, Sun Jian, you attack the center! Meanwhile the force of volunteers led by Liu Bei will head to the altar in the west.
The camp gates swing open, and respective officers heed their orders.
"This battle will not hold my interest for long... troops, let's finish this" I head to the cliff above the turban base with my troops, encountering roving attacks along the way.

My troops and I get to the cliff, where we can see the troops inside the base from above. "Archers. Ready the oil, and the fire arrows." The archers follow my orders, and are ready to fire, burning the base. I give a hand signal for them to fire upon the base, and I witness te fire attack from the cliff. "Let them reap the rewards of their own incompetence... finish them." My troops climb down from the cliff, and charge the enemy base, leaving their defenses in disarray.

General Ma Yuanyi leads his troops, positioning them kilometers apart for greater efficient in battle plans.


The strategic plan is ready when I have full confirmation on what is being done to make a good assessments on the situation.
