Postby Austria-Bohemia-Hungary » Sat Aug 17, 2013 11:23 am





Current sitrep:
Welcome to the European battlefield and the International Tankery Tournament Commander. Your standing orders, depending on the situation are the destruction of the enemy command tank or annihilating the enemy force completely. Further detailed briefing may be had from Imperial and Royal Ministry for Defence, Tankery department or from the overall supervising officer in the field.

Information for You:
Girls und Panzer is an anime series in which a team of schoolgirls meet each other in battle, riding in World War Two vintage tanks. Since the only somewhat numerous RL WWII leftover tanks are Soviet Armour, this thread will be run on armoured fighting vehicles from 1939/09/01 to 2001/09/11.
There will be an application, wherein the most important part after your character's and her team's name is the 200 word mandatory writing example. This may be provided on the spot or be linked from an appropriate channel. Not providing a writing sample fails you application automatically unless you can prove otherwise that you can roleplay and be dedicated.




The Rules:
  1. I am OP, and my word is law.
    1. MInroz is Deputy OP
  2. A minimum of 5 sentences per post. 5 grammatically correct sentences.
  3. No godmodding. Punishment is being introduced to a strategic bombing raid by my San Real Regiments, with CBU-105's and IIR guided bombs.
  4. 3 strikes and you're out.
  5. Apply as your NS nations please.
  6. If you are inactive for a week or more, and want to rejoin, TG me or the Deputy OP or announce in IRC before posting.
  7. Have as many AFV's in your home garage as you please, but you may only deploy 20 of them.
  8. Yes, I know that in real life tank warfare involves crews incinerated by depleted uranium and catastrophic cookoffs. Yes, you are going to keep things PG-13. To assist you along with this immense task we utilize what I call My System. You will be assigned one laser marker and a radio transceiver per tank, upon dealing and receiving hits information regarding this extraordinary event will be sent to My Supercomputer where your fate will be decided, if you are deemed unfit for combat please do run for the nearest cover and wait for an ARV and HIFV to pick you up. Failure to do the above will result in your unit shelled by my MLRS units with XM31 GMLRS and Novichok-5, followed by immediate ejection from the RP.
    1. Basically the honour system, I will kick if you break PG-13 or godmods.
  9. NS grade equipment (a.k.a. Lyran Werewolves) is banned, live ammunition is banned, mechs are banned with extreme prejudice, arty and air support are banned (except at the OP's pleasure to enforce these reasonable rules). Alles klar?
    1. Exceptions and usage of experimental vehicles like the MBT-70 series may be petitioned and requested for at the OP-team.
    2. Double barrelled tanks and Mechs are not accepted, no exceptions.
    3. Third generation main battle tanks are restricted to the command platoon of 4-5 vehicles.

Team Commander/Team Application:

Part One

Name (Commanding Officer): Elisheva Silverstein
Age (16-20): 18
Appearance/Pic: This in an IDF tanker uniform
Nationality: Karlsland (Jewish)
Personality: Fairly level-headed. Most of the time. Ish. Handling her with kid gloves is an easy way to piss her off. A practical leader. Has a tendency to exploit loopholes to get what she wants, though she avoids what she deems to be open cheating.
Biography: Grew up in one of the nicer rural towns of south-central Karlsland, one with an old war monument featuring a Panzer. Of course it wasn't operational, but nobody told Elisheva this when she climbed into the thing at 7. She found out herself. And was quite dissappointed, to boot.

Once she turned 13 and school clubs started opening up to her, she at first thought about joining the glider club (She loved flying as much as Panzerfahren), but soon found out that she had a fear of flying. Not riding aircraft, no, she was afraid of piloting them. She decided she'd feel much safer in her armored, carbon-reinforced tanks. She's been in panzers on and off ever since.

Team Commander/Team Application:

Part One

Name (Commanding Officer): Ira Sheksneva Berezheka
Age (16-20): 16
Appearance: Dishelved-looking, Ira is over-developped to an almost grotesque extent, looking over 22 despite her age. Growing up faster than normal, she has a rather elongated look without much bulk to it.

She has short, light brown and generally unkempt hair, and grey eyes. Her face is ridden with acne, acne scars and regular scars; partial paralysis in her face gives her a snarl that has earned her the nickname of Ira Drago by people who both saw Rocky IV and are incredibly stupid.

Her uniform consists of a blazer over a shirt, a tie, a knee-lenght pleated skirt and knee-high socks. None of it is worn properly, stains dot her uniform.

Nationality:

Birkanian

Personality:

Ira is stoic, surprisingly quiet and hard to impress. She usually talks in a very slow, pragmatic and deliberate manner with few words. Speaks more fluently when either abusing someone or giving out orders in the battlefield.

Like the rest of Team Bag, she has earned her position by bullying everyone else into submission, enough to appoint herself as the dogmatic leader. Compulsive and sociopathic yet a good tactician. Usually the center of attention, rarely alone. Named the team "Bag" to dare everyone to question her, with predictable results.

Biography:

Currently through her fourth attempt at passing freshman year, Ira had a troubled childhood, having been raised both by a family of drunks and a pack of wolves, often erroneously cited as a pack of drunk wolves. After many attempts to get her off crime and drugs with sport only resulted in a couple of her teammates ODing or getting stabbed, a last attempt was made to get her into tankery, which has so far been succesful in delaying her next batch of felony charges, if only because of the allure of explosives and controlling a large group of her fellow youth criminals.

Part One

Name (Commanding Officer): Cecilia von Rhein
Age (16-20): 18
Appearance/Pic: Princess Perfect
Nationality: Wolfener
Personality: Confident, proud to the point of arrogance, insensitive, preachy
Biography: Born in Ingersleben, Kristallin Province, Cecilia is the daughter of a veteran tank commander of the Second Wolfen-Amythysian War, Colonel Bernhard von Rhein. Cocky, nationalistic and devious, Cecilia had always wanted to follow in her father's footsteps. Cocky about her Edenite parentage and her father's kill score, she hoped to impress her peers and instructors in the academy and earn a spot in the Wolfen Armoured Corps when she enlists in the army. However, her demanding attitude and low tolerance for failure had earned her few friends, and most in the club absolutely refused to let her take the reins. But her friend Gloria von Reihendorf hoped that she might loosen up in the competition. Perhaps she might find camaraderie with her allies and opponents there...

Team Commander/Team Application:


Part One


Name (Commanding Officer): Aurora G. Sciarra

Age (16-20): 17

Appearance: Aurora is neat without looking formal, and has fairly loose, casual body language. She has fairly normal body proportions for someone her age, but has slightly thick legs and a rounded look to her, suggesting she had recently lost a fair amount of weight and her body got used to carrying it.She has sandy brown hair that she keeps in a voluminous pageboy haircut and hazel eyes, with olive skin and a generally clean complexion. Very expressive eyebrows and lips that seem to give her a permanent smile when not really emoting lead many to say she's got a face for television.

Her uniform consists of a cream blouse, a dark blue vest and matching pleated skirt, and dark blue knee socks. She tends to wear it loose without it looking obvious.

Nationality: Serstinese

Personality: Aurora sees herself destined for great things and is willing to go the extra mile to prove herself right. A natural showman, boisterous and with a penchant for living large wherever she can get away with it, she acts bold, talks big and likes winning people over.

As a commander, she is perceptive and brazen in equal measure. She favors tactics and equipment that are showy and nice to look at, but still function well. She also tends to take criticism and suggestions fairly well, and will devote as much time as she needs to "reviewing the footage" with her team to get things right.

Biography: Born to a doctor and a former footballer turned local sports commentator, Aurora is the youngest of three children. Her outgoing personality and penchant for watching too many movies as a small girl made her want to pursue the world of film and TV early in life, and up to this point she hasn't disappointed herself. She dreams of starring in or directing a blockbuster film.

The chance to practice tankery, or rather chronicle tank combat with an audience riding shotgun, was one she jumped at. To that end, she collected funds to fit minicams on each tank, capture footage of her team's matches and make her own amateur movie about the whole experience. This devotion to chronicling their adventures with her at the center, offering a front-row seat is why the Santo Ferro Academy team is known as Team Indecent Exposure. With this, Aurora and her tight-knit crew are ready to set the web on fire...that is, if any of their audiovisual equipment survives the tournament ahead.

Team Commander/Team Application:

Part One

Name (Commanding Officer): Tatiana Mary Catherine Newbury
Age (16-20): 17
Appearance/Pic: Tate, Sixth Year
Nationality: HRE
Personality: Tatiana "Tate" Newbury is not one of the most outgoing persons even for such a House as Gloriana. To be entirely honest Tatiana has never been outgoing in her entire life, preferring the quiet conversation with books and wits instead of hanging out with friends nonstop. Notwithstanding she still has a facebook page and is still sometimes enamoured by her likes or rather her lack of likes. Being learned is very important to Tate and despite her grades lapsing somewhat before the GCSE's she still managed to doggedly fight them back to normal like any true Gloriana member. Determination and a keen eye for things are her strong points but Tate is still easily confused by chaotic situations and lacks experience in Tankery, both of which might doom Team Wellesley this year.
Biography: "Tate" Newbury, the resident Sixth Year Prefect of House Gloriana at Royal Britannia College was born in the Summer of 1997. Her parents are wealthy second generation British residents in the Imperial and Royal Monarchy. Like her parents, she attended the only elementary and secondary school in Cisleithania providing a completely English-style education.

Royal Britannia College, situated in an ancient English-style castle between Vienna and Wiener Neustadt was founded by decree of the Emperor in 1821 after the turmoils of the Napoleonic Wars and accepted only male English students for a hundred and twenty years. This was to be Tatiana's school after her eleventh birthday. Her grades throughout the early years were what could best be termed as below average, bringing much consternation to her parents. It recovered near the end of her fourth year, thanks to much gritty work from her side, and to the relief of her parents.

In her fifth year Tate was made a prefect despite herself having doubts on her suitability to control other students. She was also given the option of joining the school's Army Junior Cadet Programme and its Tankery team for extra credits. With no questions asked Tatiana signed up and was assigned to command the team's fourth Scorpion. Taking her team against their latest opponent she performed well in battlefield recce with their three other Scorpions but was unfortunateky completely wrecked mid-game while retreating in a smoke screen.

In her Sixth Year she was quite happy to receive some well deserved good grades on her GCSE equivalents, and in Tankery she was promoted to command the team's Scorpion platoon. In the preparations and training regimes for the International Tankery Tournament she lead her platoon in a series of successful ambushes against their two Chieftain platoons, beating one advance on their command platoon back and knocking the other platoon out of action with fifty percent casualties. Noticing her capabilities, Cadet Programme Leadership made her this year's team commander, replacing their outgoing one.
Favourite Flower (optional): Rosa gallica (Red Rose of Lancaster)
Favourite Armoured Fighting Vehicle (optional): Centurion, all marks.

Writing Sample (linked or a writing sample here and now, 200 words minimum):
28th September 1947 - Fliegerhorst Ramstein - 506th Joint Fighter Wing „Noble Witches”


"Oberst de Hemricourt de Grunne!" Major Gabriella Amelie Freiin von Banfield, second in command of A-Squadron, 506th Witches rose from her seat at breakfast to salute their unit commander, but she was preempted by the Belgian Countess by a fraction of a second. Puzzled, Gabrielle settled down again while Rosalie smiled and pointed towards her shiny new Commander's Cross of the Military Order of Maria Theresia, worn as ribbon with her every day dress, which was gazetted to her last month for her 200th shootdown of a Neuroi and her leadership during Operation Hekla.

It was hard but pleasant work, advancing inch by inch against their alien foe and finally moving to reclaim Karlsland. Soon, they could be in Vienna, retaking the Empire from the Neuroi invaders who seems to be weakening more and more with every Neuroi hive annihilated. They had forced their way past the Rhine in Winter 1945-46, liberated their first Karlsland town (Remagen) and quickly set up multiple bridgeheads before the ground Neuroi reacted. The Witches had fought with nail and teeth over them, especially the Karlsland formations, the „Noble Witches” and the 501st „Strike Witches”.

With the new year, major armoured and infantry formations could finally move to liberate Cologne and Koblenz, and then the Ruhr area. There were horrendous casualties on both sides, but finally, after a year of fighting, the Neuroi had been pushed back behind the Elbe and the hive over Prague had been annihilated in a joint effort (Operation Hekla) from the 501st and 506th Witches. Now they had moved from their Dutch bases to Ramstein AB, retaken by the combined Guards units of Britannia, Karlsland and Ostmark. From here, it was all but a 20-30 minutes flight to the hives above Vienna and Berlin.

"Morning Gabriella, how are you doing?"
"I'm fine thank you ma'am."
"Good, we're flying air superiority missions today over the Elbe, you prepared?"
If Gabriella was prepared? If counting scared witless when facing the large Neuroi prepared, then sure.

"Yes Ma'am, when is the briefing? I need to talk to my subordinates."
"Of course, it'll be on the late afternoon I'm afraid, high command wants a night attack to cross the Elbe."
"Prinzessin will be so happy over a night mission, Colonel."
"She always can't really hide her relief over high command conducting major operations in her enviroment. I wish she could be less demanding of her ground crew though, half of them I've already sent home for shell shock..."
"Don't we all wish that? But she's superb in the air, although very territorial. The only Night Witches that I can think of matching her abilities are Litvyak, Schnaufer and Lippe-Weißenfeld. Will you fly with us... Rosalie? If I may call you... that, Ma'am."
"I will Major, and it's fine, the 501st refer to each other by their first names anyway. Anyway Gabriella, see you around at briefing."
"Ma'am."


Saluting for her Commanding Officer, Gabriella sat down again when de Hemricourt left, heart filling with anticipation, but also a feeling of dread she couldn't shake or explain.

"We fly by flights to Sector A, B, and C ladies, as shown on the map. Two flights for each sector. Report and destroy any airborne enemy forces you shall find. 501st Witches will be handling sectors D-F. Night Witches, this is your moment to shine, direct your sisters to targets, and call out incoming enemy reinforcements. Don't enter turning fights with them, but seek to kill the core as soon as possible and move on to the next target, cover each other. We're to take and keep local air superiority throughout the night for our ground forces to establish a bridgehead. If you run out of ammunition there's forward refuel and rearm points on the Autobahn in Sector 01, as shown on the map. All clear?"
"Yes Colonel."
A chorus of voices replied to Rosalie and she felt a sense of relief, they've been working their arses off during Hekla and Wacht am Rhein, but as long as there's a trace of Neuroi in the World they would never rest. Her girls were beginning to rival the 501st, who single handedly annihilated the hives above Gallia and Romangna, Rosalie thought with no small amount of pride, and walked towards the mess hall for the dinner.

And as usual, everybody who was in the Mess hall rose and saluted, which was really exasperating sometimes in Rosalie's honest opinion... Sighing, she smiled, returned the salutes and told everyone sternly to settle down.

Finding Sayn-Wittgenstein, Rosalie sat down with a sigh and a smile, slowly sipping on her tea.

"We fly in three hours Heinrike."
"Yes..."
"Don't you... don't you ever wonder what would've happened if Earth didn't get invaded by the Neuroi?"
"We would've been killing each other."


Concise and brutal as usual. Rosalie had had this conversation with Heinrike so many times before and each time she's been told that the human race was incapable of maintaining peace for very long amongst themselves. But they had one wish in common...

"I wish we could stop the fighting some day, totally. Discuss and iron out difficulties and never resort to the sword again."
"I wish that could happen too, with all my heart. But it doesn't, we're too irrational."
"Are you ready for the advance past the Elbe? We'll be at Berlin soon."
"Yes, I am Rosalie. You know how much I miss being in Berlin."
"The Wing depends on you and Eilika. I'll be very disappointed if we can't hold the objective tonight."
"I understand, I'd be the same if I were you, Rosalie."
"Heinrike."


This was it, Colonel Rosalie de Hemricourt de Grunne thoguht as she led her flight across the Elbe in the middle of the night. This was the prelude to Operation Waterloo, if successful the one operation to liberate Berlin.

"Alright, all units, assume Chandelle over your positions, we're expecting Neuroi..."
"Belay that, this is Eilika, they're already here. Sector Charlie, to your 12 o'clock. Two medium scouts... Wait... Sectors Alpha and Bravo too."
"Well then, are you all in on the plan ladies? Sector Bravo, retire. Alpha and Charlie, converge!"


With well drilled efficiency the two flights in Bravo Sector retired, never letting their foe spot their diminutive frames. Meanwhile, sixteen Witches from both sides sandwiched the Neuroi offending Bravo Sector. From fifty meters they all opened fire, spelling a quick and brutal ending to two of the scouts.

"Charlie Group take and secure Sector Charlie. The rest of you retake Sector Alpha. Night Witches to me in Sector Bravo."
"Yes Ma'am!"
A few minutes later of thunder and flashes, scattering Neuroi fragments and Düppel the sky cleared to reveal the Neuroi main force, in the thousands, coming to stop them from crossig the Elbe.

"So many of them Colonel! What should we do?!"
"We kill them all the same. Remember, despite their numerical advantage, there can never be more than one foe on your sixth, even in a bar-brawl like this. Now who wants to go first? Are you seriously all pussying out ladies?!"
"But we've never seen so many of them all at once Ma'am!"
"They're all the same. Courage ladies. For the sake of your families, friends, homes and countries, scrounge up some courage! Forth, Eorlingas!"
"You're silly Rosalie, I hereby claim this as my battlefield, Heinrike out."


Chuckling as she saw Sayn-Wittgenstein speed past her with her famous line still in the air, Rosalie made no hesitation in following. Then with a cry of "Ura!" all three sector groups followed into what promised to be a very long and bloody fight.

Part One

Name (Commanding Officer): Su Xiaolian of the Khereit Clan
Age (16-20): 17
Appearance/Pic: Linky
Nationality: Minrozian
Personality: Arrogant, short-tempered, intelligent, honourable and tsundere!
Biography: Born in the Imperial capital city of Zhongyang, Xiaolian hailed from the wealthy, noble clan with the long history of prestigious military service and direct descendents of mighty warriors, bounded by their service to the Great Khan, the Holy Minrozian Emperor in this case.

Defiantly proud of her roots, she is a hard-working individual who wanted to serve her country and her Emperor. Wanting to follow her family footsteps, she enrolled into the military academy at the tender age of 12. Overtime, she became a good student with excellent marks and decent tactician. With the goal in mind of earning the spot in the Minrozian Armoured Divisions once she graduated, Xiaolian is looking forward to be part of the Imperial Army in honour of her family legacy as warriors of the old.

However the problem is her aristocratic and nationalistic upbringing had made her a very cocky individual towards non-Orientals whom she viewed as inferiors, worthy of servitude. Most particularly – the white people, she dismissed them as ‘the savages of savages’. Notably she often refused to work with White Minrozians which often lands her into detention. But her best friend Sonya Orlova is an exception which befuddled many of her peers and teachers alike. In her tsundere defense! Xiaolian insisted Sonya is just a ‘pet’.

Despite her negative traits, Xiaolian deep down is a kind-hearted girl who loves kids and animals as well as possessing strong sense of justice. Her subordinates looked up to her as their big sister figure in spite of her arrogant attitude.

At the urging of her friends, her boyfriend Meng Wuji, her family and her superiors, she’s been sent to participate into the Tank-battle competition as the national representative. Hoping she’ll loosen up in the world outside of Minroz and make friends among her allies and opponents. In any case, Xiaolian relished at the chance of fighting ‘foreign devils’ to prove her motherland’s superiority.

Well, we're in the mess hall, it's seven am, there's people milling about with caffeine drinks in their hands, and about half my team is out in the crowd trying to gauge how everyone is finding their lodgings.
We also have a so called safety briefing and demonstration beginning at 0800 hours. I don't have any particular plans for mess hall but posting attendance for starters. I intend to move fast through the briefing like in max. two posts then have the demo.

Age (16-20): 17
Appearance/Pic: Without the pendant.
Nationality: Imperial (Empire of Starkindler)
Personality: Calm, serene, polite and shy. However, impulsive and assertive when angered.
Biography: She was born in the outskirts of the Imperial Capital, in a wealthy neighborhood overlooking the sea. As the girl of affluent parents, it was made sure that she gets the best education money can buy. She was attending a private elementary school, along with a dance and manners course to help her later socialize with important people. However, it quickly turned out that she preferred science subjects to art vastly, and she aspired to become an engineer.

Her parents respected her choice, sending her to the middle school associated with the most prestigious engineering college in the country, then further to the associated high school. With her serenity and calmness, many girls adored her, and she became popular. She had heard of the new martial art, Panzerfahren there, which grabbed her attention because of the inherent leadership and engineering challenges associated with it, so she founded a team with the sponsoring of the university. During her high school years, as she, and her peers were getting more recognized because of their seniority, and their achievements in the Imperial Civilian Panzerfahren League, the group's funding increased, allowing them to get more, and more modern tanks, leading them to their current 16-tank configuration.
