Crime & Conflict Handbook

Crime, conflict and law enforcement are important parts of Brandywine. Whether you're an outlaw planning a robbery, a deputy investigating a crime or an ordinary citizen caught in the middle, these interactions have the potential to create some of the most memorable stories on the server.

However, meaningful conflict requires more than pointing weapons, exchanging gunfire or collecting rewards.

This is not intended to be an additional list of strict rules. It provides guidance, recommendations and examples of what we expect from players participating in criminal and hostile roleplay.

Roleplay is unpredictable. Circumstances change, plans go wrong and unexpected interactions happen. We recognise this and do not expect every situation to follow a predetermined formula.

What matters is the overall quality and intent of your roleplay.

An occasional departure from these recommendations during an otherwise excellent scene is very different from somebody consistently ignoring them to maximise profits, win fights or avoid consequences.
