Western Frontier Rpg

[Gyrosphinx]

I've had this idea in the back of my head in over a year now, and now I has the sufficient skill, what I'm gonna make is a Western Themed Rpg. You can play four races: Tauren, Orc, Human and Dwarf, which I need special models for, as I'll need a special anim set for all the abilities. You start in a small frontier town, and can from there do anything you like. Be a rancher, sheriff, robber, cavalry soldier etc.

The map will contain a large number of weapons and gear, and many proffessions. You will also have the ability to switch between melee, gun and rifle stance. You will also have access to magic gear, as the Tauren practice shamanic magic and the orcs do voodoo.

I'll post more detailed info later, and don't forget to feed your kodo herd

Does it sound interesting?

Here is the Request Thread

Also, the project is currently unnamed, please come with ideas if you have some.

you can also give dwarves access to runes and give humans access to smth like light or arcane... why only Horde has magic? =DDDDD

 

[Gyrosphinx]

there is no horde vs. alliances, it is more mixed. And every race can learn magic, i only mentioned who teach magic, but that dwarf-rune thing was a good idea.

 

[Trillium]

i was kidding 'bout horde/ally =))
but idea seems interesting...

i look forward to seeing Tauren Cowboys... =DDD

I used to have an old western Blood Elf rifleman model that got rejected. I could look around and see if it is still around. I myself once had an idea like yours except it was bloodelves as the townspeople and trolls as the indians.

And any name ideas?

 

[Trillium]

hero names?

Miner should be an occupation for dwarves.

Really neat idea, maybe "Frontier RPG" for a name. I look forward to playing it.

Wolfs of the West RPG, name idea =D (WoW or WW lol)
Also, with proper models, gameplay and such this might turn out really cool.

 

[Gyrosphinx]

I like Wolfs of the West RPG, so shall it be.

As nobody has applied to the request thread yet, I urge all animators in this thread to give it a try if you want the project on tracks!
(no offence or order)

I'll post weapons, proffessions and misc stuff later on.

[Mephestrial]

When I finish up the animations you can use this model, I also have a weaponless version for attachments. I might be good for bandits or other random NPCs.

 

[tjdrake719]

Wild Wild Westcraft ftw. Coolest name ever.

 

[Trillium]

Western Wilderness of the Wildest WestCraft

 

[Gyrosphinx]

[Trillium]

Winds of the West
Into the Uncharted West
Praeries of Kalimdor
Wild Frontiers (of Kalimdor)

[tjdrake719]

I was dead serious about Wild Wild Westcraft

 

[Gyrosphinx]

Many to chose of, keep'em flowing

 

[Trillium]

[LemonBomb]

I like this map idea. Perhaps you could throw in some outlaws as creeps?

 

[Gyrosphinx]
