The Great Shinobi War

This forum is based before the events which lead up to the Second Great War but follow a slightly alternative reality than the manga and anime while also showing a few similarities. In a bid to expand their wealth and territory both the Kazekage and Hokage have issued a campaign to expand their influence into the neighboring River Country which is known to be rich in natural resources and popular amongst foreign trading vessels. Because of conflicting interests small skirmishes have broken out in order to gain control over key locations which has inevitably raised the already fragile tension. War has been avoided for the time being however with the rise of conflict, and the introduction of a third party, the time for blood is soon approaching.

Features
.Military Occupations instead of the usual 'Ramen Shop Owner' and 'Inventor' occupations, TGSW prides itself in the creation of relevant roles which both earn your character weekly income AND categorizes your character for future important missions. These roles range from Defensive Occupations such as Perimeter Guards, Sentry Units and Military Police to Special Occupations such as ANBU, Medical Staff and Interrogation Squads. There are 4 categories of Occupation each with its own subdivision and hierarchy.

.Interactive World Map a somewhat unique feature on TGSW which involves an interactive World Map capable of showing members real time information. By hovering over icons on the map you are able to see a pop up description of the location and who the territory belongs to. This map will also display important missions, skirmishes and episodes (large scale roleplays). The World Map also works on a territory system which highlights different locations as per the controlling organization which grants various amount of resources per week.

.Interactive Battle Maps another map feature on TGSW these maps vary per location and contain various terrain scenarios. These battle maps are updated by members once they have finished their posts so the opponents are able to have a visual aid when it comes to ranges and terrain effects.
