Your country's special forces

[Kermitson]

Our special forces are known as the Kermetic Zealots. Only the most faithful and skillful warriors are chosen to ascend to the rank of Zealot by the Prophet Kermitson himself, and a grand ceremony is held in the ascendant's honor on such an occasion. They are provided with the heaviest armor, the cream of the military surplus - powered, reinforced, and decorated in holy sigils and colors - and wield shotguns in battle.

Most of the time, our Zealots are assigned to guard either the Kermetic Temple or the Prophet himself, though they are always alert and ready to deploy or defend within our domain. They also act as commanders for the township's militia. Zealots, in a similar vein to the Beserkers or G.I.s of old, are provided with various tinctures to induce various states in combat as well as to build immunity to some poisons.

As part of the ritual of ascension, Zealots must give up their old names and replace them with ones derived from the Kermetic scripture and mysteries. Aloysius and Zshlomo are the two Zealots, at present and thus far. The Prophet has set an upper limit on the number of possible Zealots at any given time to 3,281 and has grand ambitions regarding further recruitment and training.

[Catarra]

My special forces are modelled and trained by the British special forces, on SAS and SBS. They were born in the 50s. Trained by Catarran X interallied commando veterans. Since 2006 they are integrated in a single command.
The main components are the 7th Airborne battalion modelled in the SAS, the 11th cavalry is the LRRP unit, the GIM (Navy Frogmen Group) modelled by the SBS and 600th Squadron specialized rescue operations and infiltration and exfiltration of SF.

[Aerlanica]

Well, Aerlanica has the Waste-Rangers.

But let Harold Vence tell you about it:

And for the harder, more difficult jobs that are more clandestine, we've got the [R E D A C T E D]

[Socialist States of Ludistan]

The Red Forces, they are absolute masters of infiltration, and those who weren’t good enough spies, were trained into amazing fighters. The Red Forces have to study everything they can about the country they’ll have to infiltrate, they then have to learn the language fluently, and then they get forged a new identity. They also have to get work experience for some important job, but we’ll get back to that later. Those who aren’t made for spying, but fighting undergo rough training. They’ll learn how to respond to every situation, and they also have to learn how to fly a plane and a spaceship, sail Ludistan’s highly technologically advanced military boats, and then of course learn how to handle a gun. Most of those Red Forces are better at shooting than reading, most of the time no orders need to be given, they know exactly what to do. Now, back to the spies, once it was normal for there to be three of them in every country, now it’s normal for the to be three thousand. Most of them take important jobs, such as mechanics to the city’s water system, plumber and stuff like that, others work in big corporations, and some even work in the heart of the government. There’s also a some doctors, that are there to ruin surgeries on important politicians, yet they never get fired, they always cast the blame. That’s another thing they get trained for, charm. Both Red Spies and Red Fighters make up the Red Forces, and there’s no situation where they can’t ruin your entire country.

[Sherechia]

Some soldiers have particularly prominent genetic mutations that have enabled them to survive in heights where other humans would not survive. These people can comfortably survive and live in altitudes over 8000 meters without supplementary oxygen.

[Destyntine]

The Onslaught Regiment is the name given to our special force. There are only 240,033 (reserves included) members in this branch, being the 2nd smallest branch in the entire Destynic military behind the Earth Navy.

These soldiers are volunteer martyrs, with the majority being devout zealots of Old Norse Paganism. They vow to die within combat in a blaze of glory in the name of Odin in order to reach a valuable position in Valhalla. Being the most fearless soldiers to exist, they are deployed right into the heart of a raging war on a small transport vessel when the skies are too dangerous or too far away for starships to enter orbit. They are living bombs, and will self destruct upon death, destroying large armies and supplies, also preventing their technology from being stolen.

Members of the Onslaught Regiment are often deployed in groups of 6 on enemy grounds with the purpose of disrupting enemy defenses on the front lines of a planetary war, and spread out as fast as possible to avoid a chain reaction explosion if one is killed shortly after deployment. Onslaught regiment soldiers are deployed with plasma based railguns, plasma based flamethrowers, and two belts of napalm grenades.

[Transmaura]

We use the Iberian Gauge.

[Zhouran]

Special forces units within the four service branches of the Zhouranese People's Army are under the joint control of the Special Operations Command, established on June 23, 1961. Highly-experienced and battle-hardened, conducting various military expeditionary operations abroad and overseas military-operations-other-than-war (MOOTW) every year, Zhouranese special forces are known for being extremely well-trained & top-of-the-line and outfitted with the latest state-of-the-art Zhouranese weapons & equipment, their skills and technology essentially unmatched in the fog of war.

Within the Zhouranese People's Army, the average Zhouranese soldier and officer serves multiple years of numerous tours of duty abroad in other countries, fighting in various terrains ranging from forests to urban to jungles to deserts. As a result, the average Zhouranese soldier and officer has the battle experiences and know-hows, and for commissioned officers this is backed by five years of highly-rigorous highly-competitive technical-oriented military education in Zhouran's various military academies. Highly-experienced and battle-hardened, Zhouranese special forces operators undergo rigorously-methodical military training and meticulously-complex military education before being mobilized for covert black operations and clandestine duties.

In order for Zhouranese officer cadets to become commissioned officers, they must undergo five years of intense study through highly-rigorous highly-competitive technical-oriented military education in Zhouran's various military academies. During their time at a military academy, officer cadets go through rigorously-methodical learning on the areas of military organization, military theories, military history, tactics, strategy and grand strategy, operational level of war, logistics, armaments and other areas relating to war. Through the meticulously-complex Zhouranese military education system, officer cadets who graduate and become commissioned officers receive education comparable to that of a Specialist degree (above Masters' but below Doctorate in the Zhouranese academic degree system), in comparison, foreign military academies of other nations commonly award their cadets with a Bachelors' degree. Once a Zhouranese officer cadet becomes a commissioned officer, they are quickly assigned to their first tour of duty in order to build up on their experience in the field.

Known for their enigmatic clandestine nature, highly-incredible prowess, rigorously-methodical military training and meticulously-complex military education that is globally unrivalled, and having unlimited access to the ZPA's numerous assortment of powerful highly-advanced weapons and cutting-edge technology, Zhouranese special forces operators are known to rapidly and accurately strike deep into the hearts of the enemies, like shadows lurking in the corners of battlefields behind enemy lines.

[Imperial American Patriots]

I already made a Special Forces for my nation months ago. The Special Force is called The IASF (Imperial American Special Forces). Here is a link to my special forces: https://www.nationstates.net/nation=imp ... id=1517858

[Trad Japan]

Tatenokai: Bodyguards to the Emperor, must go through intense physical fitness tests, mental aptitude tests and ideological vetting.

Directorate of Ninja Operations: responsible for intelligence gathering, special reconnaissance, direct action and covert operations as well as protecting the Emperor.

[Miku the Based]

Tatenokai: Bodyguards to the Emperor, must go through intense physical fitness tests, mental aptitude tests and ideological vetting.

Shogun's Guard: Similar to the Tatenokai but protect the Shogun instead.

Directorate of Ninja Operations: responsible for intelligence gathering, special reconnaissance, direct action and covert operations.

Question: any reason not to usé ninja to guard the shogun? Ieyasu did it.

[Katzen]

The Freehold Military Force's special forces unit is the Special Operations Group (SOG).

The SOG is comprised of the subordinate units:

• Blazer Companies: The Blazers an elite special warfare tactics unit consisting of, among others, Combat Air Control, Combat Rescue, Roving Reconnaissance. and Combat Pioneers.
  
• Special Projects Office: SPO personnel are elite clandestine trained in intel acquisition, asymmetric and unconventional warfare, active espionage and counter terrorism operations.

Ok, cool.

[Bigpipstan]

The Nebulas: Best of the best combat mages, highly valued on the battlefield since they are usualy capable causing a lot of collateral damage. Usualy equiped with light armor made for mages.
The latex ones: Transfur conscripts. Transfurs are anorganic creatures made out of semi liquid latex, as such are more difficult to kill then a regular person would be. They consume much less supply then other soldiers. However they are quite vulnerable to low temperatures. They can assimilate bodies of captured soldiers and create clones of themselfs. The clones will have memories and possibly conciousness of the assimilated person. They are suppose to be a form of psychogical warfare, in real combat they are unlikely to actually assimilate, since it is immoral by our standards.
Children of night: Children of night are noctural soldiers whose purpose is to conduct night raids and prevent enemies from getting sleep, while also guarding sleeping friendly forces.

[A m e n r i a]

The Imperial Guard look like what ancient Chinese soldiers would if they were to be forced into a cyberpunk work. Imagine the conical hat, and the skirt-like construct around the hip and upper leg, but with modern padding on the joints and more modern-looking gloves and boots. Also their colour scheme is red and gold. Some subgroups within the Imperial Guard may have different looks, including Ox-head and Horse-face, which have darker colours and some members that don't look humanoid because they're ghosts. This may range from a ghost that looks like a gorilla with green flesh and brown fur, to one that looks like a really, really, long cat, or a serpentine being with arms.

[Vallermoore]

The Red Berets are our finest regiment in our army, and the most well trained, and we also have a secret unit of changelings of the MLP kind.

[Fratanica]

The Fratanican Special Operations Command serves as a joint organization encompassing the special operations units of the Fratanican Armed Forces. Estimated to number over 7,000 operators, special operations units engage in direct action, counter-terrorism, clandestine operations, and other missions throughout the world.

Fratanican Army

• Parachute Commando: The Parachute Command is the elite pathfinders and airborne infantry unit of the Fratanican military. They partake in operating drop zones, setting up helicopter landing positions, and pickup zones.
• Deviliers Assault Regiment: This regiment is a light infantry regiment which can be quickly deployed anywhere around the world. They serve as shock troops, or quick reaction forces, which can dynamically respond to military situations.
• Special Reconnaissance Group: The group is in charge of covert information-gathering operations for the Fratanican military. The group is small, but very effective in what it does. The existence of this unit was recently divulged within the past 5 years.
• Special Action Group: This is perhaps the most well known and prestigious special forces unit of the Fratanican military. Their main roles involve counterterrorism, infiltration, and direct action. However, they may also work with other special operations units for other roles as well. They are adaptable, able to work in any environment from snow to jungle.

Fratanican Navy

• Maritime Commando: This is the sole special operations unit of the Fratanican Navy. Their main purpose is to conduct unconventional and direct warfare in maritime and oceanic settings, hence the name of the unit. This unit includes frogmen, tactical swimmers, and coastline support.

Fratanican Air Force

• Special Air Group: This small unit engages in transportation of special operations troops, aviation support, and dangerous extractions.
• 16th Pararescue Battalion: This unit is involved in pararescue, working to recover military personnel in a plethora of environments. However, this unit is also trained in air support communication and electronic support.

[Antaviana Maiana]

The Antavianan Army Special Forces are a company in size and have booth training in Special forces missions, antiterrorism and provide protection for the Queen.

[Ausslaugand]

Ausslaugandian Troopstaffs

---

Since Ausslaugand’s constitution forbids any formal instances of a standing military force, Ausslaugand relies on intelligence and law enforcement agencies for national and external defence.

Therefore, Ausslaugand has three branches of special forces (Troopstaffs):

• Talkstaff
• Truckstaff
• Wingstaff

Each ‘Staff’ apiece handles a very particular field. For instance, the Talkstaff handles SIGINT, CYBINT, and HUMINT operations, especially any involving internal security and counter-terrorist affairs. By contrast, the Truckstaff and Wingstaff handle logistics and machinery, though each branch is assigned their own respectable specialities. While the Truckstaff handles terrestrial infrastructure and transportation, the Wingstaff handles the skies (thereby including aerial MASNIT and GEOINT).

Despite the specialisation, each ‘Staff’ has their own personnel, all operating independently according to their assigned organisation. Usually, the Talkstaff are the most non-lethal branch, as their primary roles are espionage and intelligence analysis - discretion and secrecy is both their forté and mission above all. This is in contrast with the Truckstaff and Wingstaff, who, independently or cooperatively, commonly deploy armed operatives (i.e. paratroopers) whenever the situation turns hot or enough intel/information has been gathered and confirmed.

In conjunction with law enforcement, these Troopstaffs allow Ausslaugand to field agents or special operatives in covert or peacekeeping missions, such as, investigations (national and international), police raids, undercover infiltrations and surveillance, hostage situations, bomb defusing, manhunts, and etc. These Troopstaffs offer the country a modest arsenal of elite counter-terrorist and black-op teams, ideal for quietly averting wars and maintaining the country’s integrity without violating its constitution. Though the country lacks any formal military doctrine(s), the Troopstaffs allow Ausslaugand to maintain eyes and ears everywhere, scanning for the slightest signs of trouble and discretely resolve it.

[Rightport]

Rightport Armed Forces - Special Operations

The Special Operations Forces Command is an elite unit that serves under the leadership of the Rightportian Armed Forces; responsible for overseeing and conducting special operations.

How our Special Forces differ

Most nations Special Security Forces are usually land based only and involves army members. The Special Ops Unit of the Rightportian Armed Forces comprises members from all three of the main branches within the Armed Forces - The Army, Navy and Airforce. This allows the Special Ops unit to compliment the work of all branches within the Armed Forces. As a result, our capabilities and effectiveness on the ground, on the sea and in the air is superb.

Biwolfia's Special Forces are the National Naval and Air Force, the National Army, the National Foreign Issues Force, which deals with issues outside of Biwolfia, and the Secret Marine Guards, which patrol 30 miles out of national waters in the island portions of Biwolfia. Other than the NFIF, all Special Forces are stationed and deal with problems inside Biwolfia's land and sea borders.

[Cayians]

the Ocean Shark Group (OSG) was a private company bought by the government for special operations. when in the water they would look like ordinary scuba divers. but with the recent terrorist attack on Croy City Finance Needle. they look more like the underwater navy corps (UNC).
