Of Bush, Boers, and Civil Wars (OOC, interest, planning)

[Korrodos]

Hello!

Great writing by all so far, looks good! I am willing to join in, first probally with a condemnation of the rebel attacks, and an offer to mediate the conflict. If a peace keeping mission comes along I might be willing to deploy troops, or assist in supplying the government.

Let me know where you think I will fit best!

Thanks,

-K

Thank you! I think having you as the main force behind potential mediation would be a good idea if you are willing to do that, someone who first tries to make the push to a political solution rather than supporting one side against the other.

This looks interesting. If agreeable, I'd like to join offering limited air support. I was considering joining with a close air support wing (maybe a couple A-10s), but I don't know how appropriate that would be for a bush war. I feel like that'd be overkill.

Would it be acceptable to join the government side with a couple AH-64Es, the appropriate maintenance teams, admin staff, and ordnance, and a small detachment of ~20 Rangers to serve as ground team guards/recon? This would be an excellent opportunity for my IC government to earn some internal approval points.

Close Air support is actually incredibly appropriate for a bush war, however attack helicopters or gunships would be far more effective. So instead of A-10s, if you have any dakadaks, that would be much more effective. The rangers would also be an excellent addition.

Hello, we'd love to join the RP, to smash these Terrorists and their unholy ideology.

[Atlantian Dominions]

So here is my ORBAT as I am currently envisioning it, which is lifted from a USMC Expeditionary Unit and then trimmed a bit:

13th Marine Infantry Battalion (reinforced): approx. 1,500 total personnel, approx. 600 combat troops
14x Light Armored Vehicles
6x M119 105mm howitzers
6x M198 155mm howitzers
3x AH-1 SuperCobra Attack Helicopters
3x UH-1N Twin Huey Light Utility Helicopters
12x CH-46E Sea Knight Medium Transport Helicopters
4x CH-53E Super Stallion Heavy Transport Helicopters
65x Humvees
30x Medium Tactical Trucks

Suidoos-Afrika let me know if this is too much or there's anything you want removed or scaled down.

Welcome to the thread! We can take all the help we can get.


I have to work late but I should have another post up tonight or tomorrow morning

[West Phoenicia]

West Phoenicia would be interested in this story. We would be aligned with the white nationalists. But as my nation has a multi party system, no doubt not all would be agreement and you may find loyalties split in the conflict.

Feel free to post!

Also I really hope my busy work schedule is not a problem for everyone, I'm really sorry I'm only able to post every other day or so but works got me super busy. I should have a post up later tonight tho!

[Suidoos-Afrika]

As I'm writting this post its really hit me how difficult it is for me to try and cover all of the different factions by myself....

Atlantian Dominions, would you potentially want to take over and control the White Nationalists paramilitaries?

[Vrijstaat Limburg]

Hey! Would I be allowed to roleplay as a few mercenaries? I still like the premise of the RP, but I don't think that my miniscule nation would get involved. I do think that a few soldiers for hire would like to see the beautiful continent of Africa, though (:

[Atlantian Dominions]

Yes I can do that. Can you send me any additional information you have on them (any named leaders or units, any towns where they're active) that you have?

[West Phoenicia]

I can't seem to find the IC thread

[Mersdon]

Definitely interested. Tag

[Artsotska]

Mersdon I need you immediately!

Glad to see interest is still there and new people are joining! Unfortunstely I'm going to have to put a brief pause on the IC for a few days or so because of stuff keeping me busy.....

I promise the thread isnt dead or anything but until I have a few days off and get things situated for class that's starting soon I wont be able to get good posts up. I'm sorry about the delay!

Just an fyi, work has me tied up more days then not so I've actually really appreciated the current pace. A few days break here and there is fine by me.

For sure, I'll send a TG sometime today.


Also I got a day off tomorrow so I should have a post up or two

So, is this still open, or are you guys already in a story?

Yes I'm sorry. You can still post!

Also, once again, I am so sorry I did not end up having a post up yesterday as I ended up going out with friends. There WILL be a post tonight though, even if I have to stay up late to get it out.

[Suidoos-Afrika]

Also since there are alot if posts I often have to respond to I can very easily accident forget to respond to someones, so for sure let me know if I have forgotten something

[Chimeran Collective]

Hello,

I was wondering if i could be a neighbouring nation sending fighters across the border to support the SPRF. It wouldn't be a large like invasion force just small scale teams to help supplement the Rebels.

Let me know if that's cool?

EDIT

Or I can provide peace keeping troops as well, or special forces hunting rebel camps across the borders of your nation as I guess they might be able to have them right?

[Rhyssua]

I'd be interested in joining. I'd imagine siding with the government through financial support, training, and search-and-destroy tactics.

I'd essentially fly reconnaissance planes over an area, get information on rebel positions, then either call in limited airstrikes or drop Ospreys full of troops onto the scene. Thoughts?

[Oslea]

Hey Suidoos-Afrika, I think you might've missed my IC post. (Let me know if I should change anything about it.)

[Atlantian Dominions]

Suidoos-Afrika, I've gone ahead and responded to the first part of your post, but I'm holding off on responding to the attack because I want to clarify the timeline with Suele.

Suele, you said your BMP was going to arrive a few minutes after when Suidoos-Afrika's men arrived. The attack, as Suidoos-Afrika wrote, doesn't happen until several hours after their troops arrived. Do you intend your BMP to be showing up later in time to catch sight of the attack about to begin or prior to that when the SEAA troops are arriving?
