In the heart of the Saharan desert, ancient ruins cropped up out of nowhere. Archaeologists came and discovered a goldmine of wealth and as such a town was shortly formed around the abandoned structure from ages ago. However, the few oasis around the newly formed city had spread, turning the desert into a healthy mix of wide open plains and lush green jungles. But where there is wealth, there is greed. And where there is greed, conflict is sure to come into fruition. As of now, it is the early months of 2020 and not much has changed in the past years, other then the newly built metropolis, known as Muiela. Big superpowers have overlooked this area, seeing as the climate is far too hostile for the sane to survive. However the ambitious won't have a problem.
In this RP, you brave men and women will be the leader of your own army, fighting for your Ideals. Conversely, you can join the Ranks of one of two warring factions: The Red Lotus Clan, a band of Chinese-led officials, using you as a proxy for their mischievous deeds, whatever they may be. Or, you may also fight alongside the United Peace Commission, under their ideals of peace and freedom, with a side of tremendous corruption.
How it's gonna go down:
Every applicant will be allowed a total of ten points. Then you shall 'purchase' an assortment of troops to command. For example, say you wanted tanks. 1 point = 3 tanks. Then I can decide if I want those tanks to be anything from Abrams to Leopards to T-80's and everything in between. You slap that on at the end off your App and voila.
Your Choices:
64 Soldiers (Obvious)
16 Combat Engineers (Obvious)
16 Paratroopers (Obvious)
8 Commandos (Seals, Green Berets)
3 Tanks (Abrams, Leopards)
4 APC's (LAV's)
5 Jeeps (Humvees)
6 Support Trucks (Obvious)
1 Long Range Team (Artillery, MLRS, Sniper or Mortar)
4 Cargo Helicopters (Chinooks)
2 Scout Helicopters (Little Birds)
1 Attack Helicopter (Apache, Hinds)
2 Jets (A-10, F-22)
2 Cargo Planes (C-130)
We're going for Uber-realism
This means that you're gonna need a place to refuel and transports, unless you plan on walking your army across the scorching desert. You'll also need at least a few soldiers to go and capture things, such as objectives and what not.
Also, regarding your own vehicles, please refrain from using then UNLESS you have a picture. Whenever I go into IC's I like to imagine whats going on in my head. It makes for a lot more fun, in my opinion.

*Side Notes*
In this IC, my word is law.
I will be RPing both the RLC and UPC until further notice.
I plan to write in a few objectives here and there, such as "A new shippment of X has arrived at the Muielien International Airport. Capture it and bring it back to the RLC forward base in the south east.""
Try to be as Tactilols as possible, eh?
Good Luck, Commander.
