Project Warfighter - Tier One RP Group / Happily Accepting

[New Emmerian Coalition]

No need to worry GAme, you just enjoy your vacay.

Or we can finish the Tactical Convention. Yeah. Let's do that.



Though I'd like some more specific gear and whatnot, sure, accepted! Also, you may want to revise your weaponry. Desert Eagles are not very good when it comes to the subtlety TF Atlas requires.

NEC: I won't be in the Convention, it's just not my cup of frapuccino.

Rhodevus: I'd say if you want to stick with a handgun, why not the P30? I'm partial to the Five-seveN, though. Good silenced semi-auto pistol, it is.

NEC Again: Want me to re-activate a puppet and move it to your Region for military assistance?

Gametop: Bye, have a good vacay.

ProWar in general: How's everyone?

Ah, perhaps we will do it in a later time. No matter, there are plenty of operations to do! Also, sure, I need a non-NPC ally for sure.

[New Emmerian Coalition]

Actually, I recommend anyone with a pseudo-American / Swedish / French puppet of decent size to come on down to my region and be my neighbor.

The whole ally thing would have to wait, but it'd be nice to have fresh blood anyways.

Warfighter Loadout:

Just a note before I delve into the loadout. You will, if familiar, notice that most of the weapons are Halcyon Arms weapons. This much is true. However, they were procured legally (IC-wise, at least.) when Transoxthraxia purchased a number of Domestic Production Licenses for a certain number of weapons, including two of the ones that are included in this list. If you want proof that I did indeed purchase these licenses, I will be willing to look into the Halcyon Arms thread in the Global Economics and Trade subforum, and dig up the appropriate post. With that out of the way, let's begin.

• The primary weapon of the TSB forces is the T88K, which is the Transoxthraxian version of the Halcyon Arms' M41K. It's chambered in the 6.8X43mm SPC Remminton Cartridge, which acts as a midway between the venerable 5.56X45mm and 7.62X51mm rounds that are more commonly found within the rifles of the TSB's opposition. The 6.8X43's magic is that it carries a stopping power that is just under what the 7.62X51mm usually carries, while bearing the 5.56X45's accuracy and reliability. As the TSB's armoury is standardized, unless an explicit situation demands, all TSB Operatives are armed with the T88K as a primary weapon, though what they customize it with is totally up to each individual. Silencers are occasionally mandatory, given situations. Each operative usually carries two to three extra magazines with them.
  
  
• When their primary weapons are either too cumbersome, or run out of ammo, they turn to the T-44 Skindas. Based off of the Halcyon Arms' Deadeye Defender, the T44 employs clever recoil reduction technology similar to what is used within the current Supra V systems. While it can be chambered in a number of cartridges, T44s found in the hands of TSB Operatives are usually chambered in either .357 or .45. While certainly large, and perhaps unwieldy at times to use as a secondary weapon, (As it's "parent", the Deadeye Defender, was actually classified as a PDW) The T44 packs a serious punch, especially in close quarters. It's earned the name "The Rusty Chainsaw" due to its sheer rate of fire that can quite literally "chew" through enemies.
  
  
• The TSB also employs a number of different grenades depending on what scenario is given. For example, if a TSB Operative is tasked with the incapacitation of a terrorist group (Classes A, B, or C.) and rescue of hostages, they will be equipped with a number of (originally American) domestically produced concussion grenades. A favourite of theirs is the four-bang, which is Transoxthraxia's Mother-of-all concussion grenade. It's essentially four concussion grenades that were taped together, all with the same fuse. Furthermore, the TSB also employs a number of different fragmentation grenades, some of them officially sanctioned by their superiors, and some of them less so. Officially, the TSB employs the aging American M26 Fragmentation Grenade when large numbers of enemy hostiles must be dispatched, and stealth is only optional. Due to its unreliability due to it being older equipment, it is often foregone by the unofficial, and very controversial, Yakahnas Grenade, which is an illicitly-produced grenade usually thrown together by a number of TSB Operatives. It's known for its brutality. To give a brief background, Transoxthraxia's history has been long dominated by other cultures. First the Moors, and then the Spanish, for nearly a thousand years. While Transoxthraxian Culture was changed and influenced during those times, it was able to maintain a large degree of freedom and maintain its cultural "shape" by fierce resistance and xenophobia. Much of this eventually translated into a violent warrior culture when Transoxthraxia first got its independence in the first half of the nineteenth century. They despised the French and hated the Spanish more than that, and soldiers and their commanding officers developed ways that would injure their usual opponents in the worst ways possible. When the London Concordat rolled around in 1945, many Transoxthraxian Military Units still employed Caltrops as they retreated. After the war, you couldn't buy enough of them. They were being sold left and right. The NSB eventually bought a large amount of them, but never employed them. When the NSB was disbanded and the TSB inherited their meager armoury, the caltrops were then quickly taken by the Operatives to make into these Yakahnas Grenades. Essentially, what they are, is a number of caltrops, usually two or three, in a container with gunpowder and other explosives. When detonated, the caltrops fragment, and explode outwards, causing devastating damage.
  
  
• When they need serious firepower, the TSB employs the AT-4, which, for those who don't know, is an 84mm unguided recoilless rocket system, originally produced, and sold, from Sweden, though most of the TSB's AT-4s come from numerous "donations" by the American government during the closing years of the Cold War. It's a single shot, man-portable weapon that is designed to destroy enemy vehicles or fortifications without sacrificing mobility or comfortability. While very successful in field tests, they have yet to see much action within Transoxthraxia, which allows for a large stockpile of them to remain unused, and thusly a resource for the TSB. However, starting last August, the Transoxthraxian Military began a rapid modernization and reequip of its forces, which will soon see the AT-4 phased out of service.

Biography of Warfighter:

The TSB actually has its origins in the SOB-EF, or Special Operations Branch, Eastern Front, during the Second World War. The SOB-EF's main job was to perform the dirty jobs that the Transoxthraxian Army couldn't normally complete, such as assassinations, behind-enemy-lines sabotage, and the rest. When the Transoxthraxians, as well as the rest of the Axis began retreating Westwards in 1944. the SOB-EF ensured a number of Transoxthraxian Divisions escape through a number of diversions that were created and maintained by the SOB-EF. Furthermore, the remnants of the SOB-EF that weren't KIA in the East (As the SOB-EF had a "no surrender" policy), operated in the final defense of both Vounomethea, and Iagyas, which were the last two pockets of Transoxthraxian resistance, Vounomethea being the capital. They had a reputation for being both zealously dedicated to the Iron Ring Regime, as well as rather bigoted, as shown through the final days of the Iagyas Pocket, when Special Commander Ja'Kanas Implas began rounding up Transoxthraxian Christians (Solidaritanists) and mass executing them. When the London Concordat was signed by Transoxthraxia in late 1945, formally ending hostilities between themselves and the Allies, the SOB-EF was officially disbanded.

However, not two years later, those who had survived the Vounomethea Trials (Transoxthraxia's version of Nuremberg - notably a lot less bloody, since they, until the final days, protected most ethnicities.) that had been a part of the SOB-EF, were reformed by the new Pro-West Dictatorial Regime as the NSB. or National Security Branch. The NSB was then supplied, and covertly supported, by the American Government, throughout most of the Cold War. During this time period, the NSB received a large amount of government funding, and was involved in counter-terrorist and political pacification operations, snuffing out resistance to the new regime, and specifically antagonizing/eliminating KTRP (Kommunistas Transoxthraxia Revolutinarias Parta, Transoxthraxia's token communist guerrilla army) threats, and played a large part in the 1968 Attempted Coup which resulted in a near-overthrow of the Western-backed government, having antagonized the KTRP into wide-scale rebellion and engagements.

The NSB was formally disbanded by Honourable General Iaason Skirivilnas after he seized power in the August 21st [2013] Coup, but was soon reformed under the Transoxthraxian National Protection Act, as the TSB, or Transoxthraxian Special Branch, by the new Transoxthraxian Government, formally termed the Council of the Ancients. The controversial Special Operative Iohn Kantos was given control of the new TSB, but was removed two months later, to be replaced by the more qualified and more popular Alaxndr Hatmsas. Under Hatmsas, the TSB has seen operation in only a few international conflicts, but has also more than likely performed in a spectacular manner in domestic operations, the one known one that they have participated in being the First Vounomethea Summit.

We are still accepting new members.

But, well... I'm just not sure your credentials are up to par. Maybe when you get some more experience, come back to us?

lololololol, I'm kidding. As of this moment, you're half-accepted. I will need to see what your equipment is like, though.(The dominant inspiration seems to be Ghost Recon)

Welcome Aboard, Trans! Nice to have you here.

[Hurtful Thoughts]

The flag is a definite plus, too.

Had it not been accepted, I would ask whether or not these peeps know who you are.

[The United Remnants of America]

I've been in probably a dozen RPs, both MT and FT, where Trans is either OP, co-OP, or god-on-earth.

Yes, this peep knows who he is.

Yes, this peep, knows: Who. He. Is.

This, needs an extra punctuation, for emphasis.

[Transoxthraxia]

Added a basic weapons loadout. If you want me to, I can also do a clothing or gear loadout. Sorry for the delay in implementing it, I kind of just got lazy. Also, URA, thanks for the commendation/vouch.

[Aenea]

Cool thread. Great idea!

Would you like an upgrade?

Are you insulting the fluffy kitty o' hate's loadout? >_>

In all seriousness, I could definitely use a dedicated service pistol. I'll stick with the current AR though.

Well, our pistol isn't great, and comes chambered for either 9x19mm, 6.5x25mm (same case/rim and OAL as 9mm, just needs barrel-change), or .40 S&W (same case-length), or for the old hardheads, in 7.62x25mm TT.
-Default chamber is 6.5x25, mostly because we tend to fight heavily armored foes.

What sets it apart is the 20 gauge shotgun/flare-gun under the barrel. (either in double-barrel 20 gauge, or single barrel 12 gauge)
-Most useful for breaching doors, or signaling.

Interestingly enough, 9x19mm shares the same rim as the 5.56x45mm this was mostly to allow them to share the same stripper-clips, though.

Incidentally, an SKS stripper-clip will hold .38/.357 magnum just fine.

[The GAmeTopians]

In all seriousness, I hope we get a good op going soon. None of the RPs I have taken part in have completed because of RL reasons or just because the members were tired of it

Okay. Just making sure that that acceptance still applied now that my loadout's been finished.

[The GAmeTopians]

Seeing as my loadout's pretty much changing as I see fit, that shouldn't change anything.

Nice animated flag by the way. I wouldn't normally comment on such a thing, but I can't see that stuff on iPad unless I stop moving the screen.

When an RP goes to crap, look to the flag for inspiration to keep posting.

Your head is moving from side to side right now, isn't it?

[New Emmerian Coalition]

In other news, I have tied up some loose ends in my life. I can finally focus on Warfighter for the weeks I have left before school.

[The GAmeTopians]

Cool. It's really early where I am right now, I should probably go back to sleep
Hurtful: No, the flag is actually animated

[New Emmerian Coalition]

So here's a crazy kooky idea. Why not just pretend Olympia never happened, and we start a better, new thought out RP? We finish Olympia with what we have now, RTB.

[Vancon]

A new one? Sure.
