After a long wait we're finally here. Thanks to everyone who donated to the Community, supported the project on Patreon and those that have assisted in the planning. Thanks to TankNut for his contiunued development of Eternity and Hoplite for continuing to lend advice and support for development when needed and thanks to all the players for being patient after my little fib of releasing "soon after Christmas" : )
The Developers and I are excited to finally announce the launch of the newest iteration of TnB's Half-Life 2 Roleplay. Half-Life 2 has always been a pretty basic concept once you got down to it so there's not much to go through or explain here, but I'll give the run down how this new iteration is being approached.
This HL2 is based in City45, located in what used to be Saint Petersburg and the year is 2014. The city stands as a large municipal district, one of many that make up the Combines regime on Earth. Our setting in particular will be focusing on a district within the city that has been newly prepared by the Combine for citizen habitation through the efforts of the Civil Administration and the raising of additional manpower from Civil Protection. As a result many of the offices and resources that may otherwise be available to those in the other districts have yet to be organized or properly put in place and the bulk of Civil Protection charged with the responsibility of maintaining sociostability are fresh out of recruitment with little experience. The Civil Protection work in conjunction with the Civil Administration in order to maintain order inside the district and the city proper, sometimes in agreement and sometimes not.
While there are unwanted elements of society there is no organization, known or unknown that has lent itself to disrupting the Combines efforts in this city. Overwatch also is not a known entity by citizens at the time of launch. They will be introduced at a later date. More information will be gradually parsed as the forums are set up and the appropriate threads are made.
When does it launch?
21st or the 22nd of June, 2019.
bear with us for technical gremlins, however.
