Your nation's wetwork (assassination) teams

[Green Port]

Does your government work with wetwork teams?
is it does, whats their equipment? how do they do their job? whats their training?

even if you don't please vote in the poll

[Dinosaurana]

One of the jobs of the Black Ops Commandos is to perform Assassinations of enemy leaders and key enemy figures. All other information on this matter is classified.

[Seperate Vermont]

What the hell?

....No.

[Maraque]

That sounds most definitely unconstitutional.

[Green Port]

We do have, when they are not working as the emperor's guard they are assassination teams. They get to their position by being one of the top five year soldiers in the empire, we cannot reveal any more information about them since its classified.

but we are not afraid of reveling their existence since one of the bases of this government is transparency to its people and the international community

[Crookfur]

There may or may not be a branch (or branches) of the Inquisition that deals with the discrete and denialble elimination of individuals possing a high level of threat to the Kingdom of Crookfur.

Wither such a branch (branches) exists or not thier equipment would undoubtedly be as non standardised as possible and include so many options that listing such equipment would be impossible.

OOC:

Yes certain Inquisitors are tasked with what could be called assassinations but most operations of this type would be carried out by Deniable Operatives. Denaible Operatives or JDs (John Does) are indirectly employed agents who are often recruited from the ranks of the Special Servcie Sections and some of the shadier "houses" within the Orders Militant

[Baroneaux]

Nope, we don't do that kind of thing.

so they are a paramilitary unit?

[Zyratar]

Hypothetically, our scouting and human replica droids could, with some extensive modifications, become assassins of very high caliber. Indeed, evidence points to the possibility that the deaths of a number of persons who had the potential to cause great harm to Zyratar were caused by these droids. Of course, this cannot be proved or disproved, and the government can neither confirm nor deny the presence of assassin teams.

[Volnotova]

We are stateless?

Either way, each megacorporation and syndicate posses sizable securtiy forces, including intelligence departements and assasins.

[Fatatatutti]

Assassination, no.

FI6 does have some operatives who specialize in "extractions", which usually involve helping people escape from a nation they don't want to be in. On one or two isolated occasions, they were tasked with "borrowing" a foreign official who didn't want to leave. You could think of it as a kind of involuntary witness protection program. That's about as close to assassination as we'll go.

so they are a paramilitary unit?

From one pooint Deniable Operatives would indeed be considered a paramilitary unit but you could equally put them under the heading of intelligence assets.

And its not really a unit as such. Denial Operatives are recruited and trained individually and generally wont be directly aware of other agents or indeed anyone but thier handler. of course they might become familiar with other people workign simialr roles through informal chanels.

[The UEG-Space Command]

All of our Agents of some sort can preform this duty, the Freelancers have shown us they can do it good, so have the Spartans and Knight units.

[Great Nepal]

At the moment, we are unable to conform of any knowledge; or lack of thereof concerning such groups.

OOC:
Yes there is, known as "Special Gukha Division"; officially its task is to enforce prisoner's quota in work camps. In reality, they dont have anything to do with the camp and are used for top-secret; highly dangerous "diplomatic" missions.

I know, but i'm asking if there is a special unit/team/branch that is specialized in this kind of work

[Vassenor]

There has been no official word to confirm or deny rumours of a specialist unit under the auspices of the Department of Foreign Intelligence. Such rumours stem from the presence of entries on official documentation referring to an "OSP" (theorised to stand for "Office of Special Projects"), with the section following being heavily or totally redacted.

[The Merchant Republics]

The Celestial Union can confirm that it makes use of political assassination as a method of warfare, though it is one of the less savoury of our strategies. Still when the opportunity presents itself to end a conflict, the Union and Republics have several agencies capable of performing the job.

The Arcani
The first and most likely would be the Arcani, the Covert Operations Experts of the Celestial Armed Forces, though they are not dedicated assassins, they are more then capable of handling most targets, however they are first and foremost spies and saboteurs, and are more suited to the role.

The Brothers of Mercury
An unofficial part of the militant wing of the well-known Mercator Foundation, the Mercury Brotherhood are dedicated assassins and among the best in the galaxy, though officially they use their talents to hunt down rogue criminals and pirate lords for the various Republics; rumours abound about political targets across the Republics and the always strenuous relationships with the other prominent social organizations. They are often the go-to for assassinations both domestic and abroad. The Celestial Union has been known to use the Brotherhood to eliminate key figures in enemy nations to incite unrest or occasionally to assist the Arcani in doing so.

The Celestial Knights
Again the adjunct to a military wing of the prominent EQVES Foundation, they share a similar past and present to the Mercury Brotherhood, being a secret organization attached to a rival social organization. Though the Knight-Assassins are not as famous or dubious as the Brothers of Mercury. They are a comprimise more or less between the very specified Brotherhood and the very general Arcani.

[Bonnaful]

We currently at the moment have no special teams inplace to rid the world of scum, and we never will or had any type of team that is this cowardly

General Eastan A Fuller
Head of Army Group C
Director Sammatha J Jones
Head of the Bonnafulian Intellgence Gathering Agency (BIGA)


OOC: We do have several groups of BIGA assualt agents that are used as assassination teams/ death squads. These units are known by the Daggers, and sabers. The teams are Dagger 1 *echo*, Dagger 1 *bravo*, Dagger 1 *Zulu*, Saber 2 *Greenbeans*, Saber 2 *Zeus*, Saber 2 *Lima*. Any other information is on a need to know file.

[Victorious Decepticons]

Of course. It wouldn't be very Decepticon not to!

Special Deletion Units are operated by the Intelligence Division.

Domestic Intelligence has units that get rid of those expected to become treasonous. Unlike the targets of overt deactivation orders, these subjects have managed to evade being proven traitorous in regular Intelligence investigations and therefore an overt Military strike would be too much bad publicity. Still, the subjects in question show all the signs of people who are ready to turn on the government at the drop of a hat.

Tactics used against these future traitors are very nasty and a chilling example of what put the Decepti in Decepticon. As you may know, Decepticons usually have several spare bodies and Saves hidden around. One of DomIntel's tactics for hitting all of these is to sneak a Delayed Deletion Virus (DDV) into the target. A DDV is typically added to an entertainment chip or some other thing the subject is likely to run directly from his own mind-boards. When the chip is run, the virus installs itself into the target.

Instead of instantly trying to delete the target once installed, it will sit stealthily within the depths of his distant memories where he will have no clue that it is present. When he makes a new Save of himself, the DDV replicates to that Save. Any use of a new body also brings the virus along with the transferred mind. After enough time that the subject has likely gotten rid of all of his old (clean) Saves, the DDV activates. Any attempts to Restore the subject from a Save after the virus-activation date will cause the DDV to be active on the new copy and immediately delete it.

The end result is that all instances of the subject are utterly destroyed.

Though chilling, it is important to note that Domestic Intelligence very rarely attacks someone who isn't proven treasonous beyond a shadow of a doubt. Still, sometimes all the signs are there despite a lack of hard evidence, and DomIntel is not going to be a moron and pretend to miss them.

Foreign Intelligence assassins use a very wide variety of methods. Sometimes, they just blast their target outright and use brute force to avoid repercussions. In these cases, the Decepticon Government wants to make a statement that the target's nation cannot defend itself against even one Decepticon - and that it had better not give us any reason to send more.

When stealth is in order, ForIntel Special Deletion Units get very creative. They have no qualms in using poison, and Kool-Aid made with antifreeze is a favored variety. This is because an agent can pour a drink of it for both himself and the target, and drink it down right in front of him without any problems. Of course, when the biological decides to go ahead and partake in the delectably sweet liquid, the results are quite different...

Another trick they've done is to imitate a machine typically found in a small room, like a copier. When they get a chance, they rig the room's door with a remote-control lock. Then they wait, in copier mode, until the proper person comes into the room. The door is then locked.

The agent then simply turns on his combustion engine, and lets the carbon monoxide do the rest.

Assassinations and other violent actions abroad aren't limited to the Special Deletions Unit. The SDU is only called in when there are exceptional circumstances or exceptional security. At other times, regular Foreign Intelligence agents are deployed for all sorts of Intel-related activities including assassinations.

[Frenequesta]

We have better things to do than maintain a special cadre of assassins for whatever reason.

[Goldsaver]

Why, yes, we do have wetwork teams. At normal times, we use to brutalize human traffickers to keep them off our waters, at other times to assassinate leaders of illegitimate authoritarian regimes, at other times to assassinate officials of nations hostile to us; we don't keep any secret expect the last one.

[Azania-Lemuria]

The Azano-Lemurian government has never at any time employed assassination teams of any sort.

Although officially denied, the Bureau of State Security (BOSS), the primary secret security service of Azania-Lemuria, employs assassination teams under the Oswald Programme. These assassination teams have been involved in attempts, usually successful, on the lives of numerous members of hostile foreign governments. They have also, occasionally, been employed in dealing with certain rogue elements within Azania-Lemuria: including Azano-Lemurian citizens. It should be noted, however, that the Azano-Lemurian government denies the very existence of BOSS, let alone the Oswald Programme.

[Misos Anthropos]

The State of Misos had never used assassination or kidnapping and execution to project our policy and protect our interest. Our opponents have a tendency to mysteriously disappear well before we could authorized such operations, besides we much prefer open warfare where we could indulge in mindless destruction and expend our surplus ammunition.

Opps, the Your is actually to be our, will fix.

[Joyous Zeltros]

Nope. We're not really into killing people.
