🕯️ Cities, like dreams, are made of desires and fears...
London, 1922.

Against the bright opulence of high-end cabarets and shaded corners of time-forgotten pubs, the city still reels in the aftermath of the Great War, her dimly lit streets a home to disillusioned veterans, old money estates built upon generational secrets, and, perhaps… other things.
Long-empty cradles, mirrors reflecting other worlds, and too-observant crows.
Markets open only if one knows how to find them, and coded messages on the bottoms of tea cups.
Watchers in the corner of one’s eye, moving too fast to be defined, running—or hunting.

Upon old ambitions and older legacies, loyalty finds itself defined in grief-woven bargains, shippings set to sail across the Atlantic, and well-timed handshakes at charity galas.
And if there are rumours… of a deceased Admiral's cache of illegal, impossible treasures, of grand masked balls hiding secret societies, odd weather above cemeteries, and howls echoing on moonlit nights… well.
Perhaps there are those who seek to wield those rumours, too.

# O, What a Commune!
*A XIXth century revolutionary "Scramble for Africa" game*

*O, What a Commune* is a roleplaying game set in the 1880s Angola-Congo region following the turmoil of a fictional colonial war. Take on the roles of an explorer, a freedom fighter, an officer, a politician, or whatever may catch your eye as you seek to either exploit or leave a mark on the West African bush!

We present a range of factions to choose from and aid, either on the battlefield or in leadership. 3 European factions (two of which at war), 3 Indigenous factions, and most novel, a revolutionary faction (within which lies the eponymous communes that players may directly shape)!

A personal character and dice roll system allows for customization, scheming and private investment so that you are not limited in what you may do and can freely diverge in favor of your own goals or storylines.

### What you can expect:
- Very involved command of the military, centered around companies and platoons;
- Overarching plotlines and events for players' characters to take part in;
- Political intrigue concerning colonial government and exploitation;
- A man in a hole (that you should not find) and possible gate to hell.

### What we are looking for:
- Players interested in taking command of the field as per typical Kriegsspiel expectations, though altered for convenience;
- Players interested in roleplaying out stories, both major as well as personal, in this seldom-used world setting;
- Players interested in having a taste of the world of colonial exploitation and the cultures indigenous to this realm;
- Players interested in taking a more adventurous route and seeing what neverbeforeseen secrets of Africa they may discover.

Looking for Players as well as Umpire/Game Master volunteers, contact for more info if needed!

The Vintage Firearm Collectors Club is an server for firearms collectors, and is dedicated to help educate others about vintage firearms and preserve the living history that comes with them. It does not matter if you collect old hunting shotguns, the Wild West firearms, military relics, simply have a modern collection, or anything that is unique in look or function; all collectors of all eras and types are welcomed. We also have a channel to help individuals identify or authenticate any firearms they come across.

Note: almost all the members are from the U.S.A. and hence educational information shared is based on U.S. regulations. However, we still welcome individuals from other countries as it is always fascinating to share differences. Also in this server we try to stay away from politics as best we can as it tends to heat things up and ruins things quite a bit. We are here to be a fun and educational environment, not place to rant about the government.
