Project Warfighter: "Tier-One" RP Group, OPEN

[Die Erworbenen Namen]

I very well might consider joining...

You should join.

After I write this ungodly long post on another thread I'll read up.

[Farlandria]

Taggity swaggity

So, what's happening with caeser? do we need more people to get involved before Nova moves it forward...do we need nova to move it forward before more people get involved...?

I don't know. I hope the RP progresses, because it could be fun.

I think we need more people to join first. IIRC nova said something along the lines of wanting atlas to get together before actually assaulting port prince

I think we need people to join first as well. I expect Van won't be there anytime soon, he'll be AFK for a few days, then he's OP'ing his space cowboy thread.

Nobody else has an excuse though(except RL), so get posting!

^Ill see what I can do about Caesar

[Farlandria]

Soooo...anyone wanna get involves with Caeser?

[Servinta]

How would I get involved?

[Farlandria]

Just shoot a post in the Operation Caeser thread. The link is in the op of this thread.

[Drekka]

Soooo...anyone wanna get involves with Caeser?

yes. Ill need to make another, much larger warfighter group group though. I have a feeling that If I don't,
It will have aBolivian Army esque result. Cant have that. *nods*

Biography of Warfighter: The Republican Commandos began life as an elite infantry division of the Astronean Republic. However, as the nation upped its standard of training, and after a violent coup d'etat saw in sweeping reforms, main infantry units were being trained to shocktrooper level, and with Astronean Paratroopers taking the role of elite light infantry. The Commandos were in danger of becoming obsolete. To prevent this, senior commanders appealed to Central Operations Command for the status of Commandos to be elevated to Special Forces level, which would place them under the jurisdiction of Special Operations Command. After extensive talks, it was decided that this motion would only pass if Commando doctrine was adapted to include unconventional warfare, deep penetration reconnaissance, combat control, infiltration, Joint tactical attack terminal training, counter insurgency, guerilla warfare, sabotage, force projection and nuclear/chemical warfare. This was an incredibly tall order, but with an absence of a diverse special forces unit, it was deemed necessary. Standardization, screening, selection and training programmes were introduced, and harsh standards were implemented. The total time taken to churn out a top level Commando moved from 52 weeks to 18 months. An additional unit was established to be attached to each Commando regiment, which was to fulfill the insane standards demanded by Special Operations Command. This became known as the Asymetric Warfare Detachment, selected from volunteers from Commando regiments, the selection process is tougher than anything the Commandos will have faced in previous training. Pass rates are below 10%. Training is another rigorous 18 months. AWD operators are trained to hhandle specific tasking deemed too risky for regiments, operating independantly from SOC, with their own MOS and loose ROE, team leaders given operational freedom in how they conduct individual missions. Their primary source of authorty iss to answer directly to the Main Intelligence Directorate. The AWD operates with little support outside of surveillance in the form of SIGINT, IMINT, ELINT and HUMINT. External fire support available depends on the task at hand, wheras Commando regiments have a dedicated air wing and artillery support.

Special Operations Command are generally reluctant to call for the deployment of the Asymmetric Warfare Detachment, as they generally inflict a large amount of long lasting damage in the AO even after missions are completed, even if done under the cover of complete stealth. Their deployment is usually both a tactical decision and a political message to Astronea's enemies: mess with the bull, get the horns. Their results are undeniable, they are efficient, effective and highly durable, with independent deployments having lasted weeks without support. Once deployed, they are under the jurisdiction of the Main Intelligence Directorate, and often have little contact with friendly forces operating in the area, frequently infiltrating deep into enemy lines. They are responsible for the sabotage of essential domestic and military infrastructure, strategic weapons systems (including nuclear installations), and the deployment of tactical nuclear weapons (suitcase nukes), chemical and biological weapons if so called upon. The AWD is an all in one Special Forces, however their numbers are small and prioritize stealth, manueverability, firepower, shock and awe as well as guerilla warfare tactics to gain the upper hand over an often numerically superior enemy.

Training/Qualifications: JTAC, Forward Observer, Forward Air Controller, diving, reconnaissance, sabotage, infiltration, deep cover, counter terrorism, MOUT, HALO, airborne, paratrooper, Shocktrooper, navigation, pathfinding, unconventional warfare, counter-insurgency, operation of infantry-level artillery (mortars), operation of UAVs and UGVs, clandenstine operations, pyschological warfare, interrogation, chemical warfare, nuclear capable, EOD, urban warfare, CQC/B, jungle warfare, deep penetration.

RP Experience (Example or Link):

"Drekavac 1-1 checking in, flight two Su-25s, armament KH-29s, KAB-500s, rockets and 250 rounds 30 mike mike, play time 30 mikes, standing by for tasking, over."

The low rumble of the Frogfoots could be heard over the horizon as the sun slowly rose over the horizon, lighting the dry, dusty savannah in a red hue. The silhouettes formed against the treeline of a small patch of flora. They maintained a low profile, rifles shouldered and at the ready. The hum of mosquitos filled the air, but was otherwise silent. Their team leader keyed into the comms, clad in desert DPM fatigues, sporting a baseball cap and headset, low profile goggles shielding his eyes. Two more men stood near him, one carrying a large radio pack, the other peering through the lens of a laser designator.

"Drekavac 1-1, Sierra 2-1, copy. Standby for AO update." The team leader spoke over the radio, nudging the operator wielding the laser designator as he whispered to him. The man nodded and began feeding back information.

"Drekavac 1-1, Sierra 2-1, AO update. I am a qualified JTAC with the 3rd AWD, 4th Commando, 450 metres east of Sudentor. Type two control, we're observing an artillery position, 3 self propelled howitzers and auxillery supports, theatre level AA threats. Say when ready nine line." A brief silence. Then a response.

"Sierra 2-1, Drekavac 1-1, ready nine line."

"Drekavac 1-1, Sierra 2-1, as fragged, 230, offset north, 8.6, 2-0-0 feet, artillery position, grid 0-9-3-2 keypad 4, target marked by laser, code 2344, friendlies 400 metres east in the treeline, egress at pilot discretion."

"Sierra 2-1, Drekavac 1-1, read back, 2-0-0 feet, grid 0-9-3-2 keypad 4, friendlies 400 metres east, treeline. Ready remarks."

"Good read back."

There was another silence as the planes began their ingress. Tensions were high as the team observed logistic trucks offloading more ammunition. Another fire mission was bound to begin shortly, they needed this battery taken out now.

"Sierra 2-1, Drekavac 1-1, requesting walk on, I see a stream running north to south, a farm."

"Drekavac 1-1, Sierra 2-1, call contact on the northern most barn adjacent to the stream."

"Contact."

"Your target is the artillery pieces and logistics trucks 600 metres south west of the barn."

"Captured."

"Sierra 2-1, Drekavac 1-1, target is artillery battery 0-9-3-2, keypad 4. 4 KBL-500s, 80 metres spacing."

"Good read back, call in with direction."

"In from south, 30 seconds."

"Continue."

"15 seconds."

"Cleared hot."

"Off hot, fall time 10 seconds." The jets screamed past at high altitude, followed by a large blast, sounding like a missile launch.

"Drekavac 1-1, SAM launch detected, advise egress now, say again, abort!"

"Drekavac tallies, dumping countermeasures, we are charlie mike."

Moments later, a succession of huge explosions rang out, decimating the vehicles on the ground. Ammo cook off provided further explosions as smoke and dust filled the air.

"Drekavac 1-1, Siera 2-1, good hits, targets destroyed."

Techlevel: Current 21st century, circa 2008-2014. Focuses mainly on battle proven hardware. AWD is issued some experimental gear, which is technically fictional but well within realms of possible tech, such as the SQLCI (Squad-level Communication Interface), Nightstalker IR/NV scope with target recognition functionality, IR strobe technology.

Application

Hmm. I like this.

Astronean Assymetric Warfare Department: ACCEPTED

[Farlandria]

Why? I think you'll be fine.

well I would imagine that extraction of Altas assets would end up like this.

I figured there would be a large scale assault on the city from regular nova forces. I don't know though lel but yeah if it was just a few small teams vs a city stuffed full of soldiers it won't go well

[Die Erworbenen Namen]

What's Caesar about?

[Exantos]

We are supposed to assassinate a foreign king from a nation that Nova Sylva disagrees with. Maybe it's because of terrorism attack sor something like that. In any case I'm surprised Atlas is actually doing an assassination in the first place.

[Die Erworbenen Namen]

Alright, I have another question to address: the new guys thread. Now, I know I'm probably NOT the best person to help out with this, but if wanted to get you guys going. We've already established people like it and penguins, but that's nice and all; we need action. So, who should start the thread?

[Exantos]

Hey URA before I post I was wondering whether all of our groups have been re-based on the carrier that your troops are on?

Threads already started DEN. I think Congreveopia's busy with a few other RP's atm. Although I know myself, URA and Nova will be there. Check the front page and it'll be on the bottom of the operations atm.

[Die Erworbenen Namen]

It's not, though....

There's no link.

[Congreveopia]

It's not, though....

There's no link.

I think Exantos meant the Ceasar thread, not the new guys one. You're welcome to start it if you have time. I'm a bit busy to write up an OP currently, but I could definitely participate, or even co-op for you.

[Die Erworbenen Namen]

Alright. I'll think about it.

As for Caesar, can anyone post? Or do we have to wait for whatshisface?

[The United Remnants of America]

"whatshisface" is waiting for others to post so we can have than 3 people participate.

Uhh, I mean, I guess they could be.

I know in my post(been a while since I wrote it), I mentioned that the Emmerian carrer was badly damaged and Emmeria took such a toll from Necropolis that they had to take a backseat basically, to explain NEC's absence. I also mentioned that my team had basically been moved back to a base in the URA for basically debriefing, rearming, and regrouping, but we can always move people to a Remnant Navy carrier, if you think that would make a swell staging point?

[Die Erworbenen Namen]

As a headquarters? Yes. Does that mean I want to use your carrier as a supporting element? No. I still want a carrier in the area, even if it's just for no reason.

Honestly, this would be so much better if we just pitched together to design an aircraft carrier that we would use as a base of operations in situations like this. It'd be much better than always having someone else who's the OP of every thread using the carrier. Frankly, it just shows favoritism. I mean, how many times have you seen a Namenian carrier? Namenian planes? Never. Because you guys always bring out the OP's carriers and use that. Not that I'm bitching, I'm just pointing out something important.

On another note, even if no one wants the carrier, I'll still be bringing some ships. I trust my support elements more...

It sounded like bitching. I definitely heard bitching.

OTOH. While it might seem like a good idea for a multinational carrier to be built and operated, logistically, that would be very hard to operate. A carrier owned by a single nation and run by a single nationality crew is much more efficient.

Also, I don't wanna pay for a carrier that's not mine.

It also doesn't necessarily have to be me, so if you wanna use your supercarrier, go right on ahead, I'll fly my troops and drones there ASAP. If not, then I'm sure the Valkyrie or the Thomas Leo Clancy Jr. will be on site for every to use.
