I have been thinking of organizing a thread based on the universe of Crimson Skies. Alot of people haven't heard of the awesome series of games so I'll provide a brief summary.
The year is 1937. The United States has shattered under the combined weight of the Great Depression, regional Prohibition, and mounting isolationism. The transcontinental railroad and the budding highway system have become useless as they now cross hostile borders. Commerce and trade leave the ground as air travel now becomes a vital lifeline connecting allied countries -- and a national obsession -- while daring air pirates and valiant air militias battle for control of the skies. Giant zeppelins crisscross the skies, carrying both passengers and cargo. It is a time of gunship diplomacy and airship piracy. It is the age of the fighter pilot and a time of daredevil adventure and sinister intrigue. It is the world of Crimson Skies…
The proposed thread would focus on a group of sky pirates operating off the western coast of the former united states. The thread itself would be heavily character driven but considering the world there will also be alot of air-combat RP which might not be some people's forte.
An official website provides the source material for this universe. I'm such a nice guy that I've got the links here for easy reference.

This should provide enough info for people to get familiar with the universe. Basically I've got a mad-on for the whole thing. If people are also interested...say so.
