The Rise of the Phantom Brigade: (Interest Check/OOC)

Postby The Vanir Territories » Wed Jun 24, 2020 9:14 am

Hello and welcome to:
The Rise of the Phantom Brigade!

I had Originally set this Idea up however I believe that it was disorganized and not concise enough for the 150 people that has viewed this thred (as of 1446Hours 2020-06-27) I felt that I wanted to revise it to a simpler format.

The Idea in a Nutshell


My nation (The Vanir Territories) has Developed its first "FT" or "Future Tech" level advancement an AI for its Walkers: A tall roughly 2 Story tall Mechanized walker with a pilot. Like a mix Of Mechwarrior and Gundams they are agile and are the pinnacle of Mechanized warfare for my Nation. They do not fly but are able to sprint and slide and move similar to the skills of a human, just on a larger scale. The AI that has been developed and is in a prototype stage allows the Pilots of the walkers to view into the predicted future of enemy units and see a few seconds into the future. However there is draw backs, The AI can be overwhelmed as well as the pilot. Though the technology was developed for when the enemy out numbers the pilot on the battlefield. This tech would be best used in ambushes or fighting withdrawals. IF this tech fell into the hands of an overwhelming foe it would be disastrous for smaller nations unable to put up an effective resistance.

With this tech Player of the RP can do a few different things. A) become a pilot from my Nation, B) Become a Pilot or Commander of an enemy yet to be determined or C) be their own nation, view the events of what happens in the Vanir Territories from the outside and respond according to what they believe is best for their nation and the region as a whole.

In Character Details



This RP is based off the video game of the same name. It currently has shown a map of the Halfsund Area that the story is taking place in and this is where the players from all sides of the conflict will be able to focus on. I have a list of places and cities as well as key areas that you as the player will be able to interact with.

Halfsund Region, Erst Settlement, 80km away from Ilheim Crater.
Erst TechScience University, Military Hanger 2, Ready Room
Lieutenant (Junior Grade) Ingrid "Kilo" Lund.
9th Day of Sólmánuðr, 2172 - 915 Hours

Lieutenant Ingrid "Kilo" Lund sat in the Hangars ready room. She had been training for years for today, she would finally be able to slip into her own Walker. The Walkers had been around for a while but hers was special. It was getting an upgrade and Ingrid and her Lance had been here at the university testing the Advanced Artificial Precognitive Intelligence or "Aapi". This AAPI would ramp up the Walker's tracking and targeting software to the point that it could see or rather predict the most likely approach of enemy units. It was currently able to track all known forms of combat vehicles including other Walkers. According to the science geeks, it would allow one Walker hold off or harass a larger enemy unit for a longer amount of time. Depending on the pilots skill would allow for even a combat green horn like herself to handle herself like a Regular pilot. As for Combat Veterans like her Commander to be near godly stature.

"Hey Kilo," Ingrid had heard another woman call her. Looking behind her she saw another pilot and lance member, Cadet Adelaide "Jackal" Kineadottir. She was a Local to Erst Settlement and a Officer in training. She had been working with the Walkers here since she started at the University.

"Hey Jackal, Heading over to Hangar 3?" Ingrid replied with a smile. Her giddiness showing through being able for the first time be assigned a Walker of her own and not some overused trainer Walker. "Can't wait to run circles around you." Ingrid's smile turned to a toothy grin as Jackal's eyes rolled.

"Yes Ma'am, Jackal sighed sarcastically, "but remember I'm getting the upgrade done as well, we will see how well your get around me then." she smirked herself. Her Walker designated "Lancer-3" would be armed standard for the Vaniri Mobile Defence Forces with a Riot Shield and a Shotgun. It would do well holding a position, with the upgraded tech and combat vet would be able to hold a small town.

"Not likely," Ingrid said boldly, "Lance-2 isn't weighed down with the heavy armor, its quick and nimble." Ingrid said looking up at her Walker in the hanger. "Lancer-2" was armed with two weapons instead of a shield and a weapon. An assault rifle and auto-pistol were in its left and right hands respectively. Even the armour looked streamlined with the armor angled like aerodynamic plates there was no doubt it could move quickly with someone who could handle it. Jackal snickered and was about to reply when the base's PA chimed in.

"Lancer-2, Lancer-3, Mount Up! Combat Mission Coming in from the Dean." Ingrid's commander barked over the PA: Staff Commander Mads "Majoren" Sveissen. He was the only one out of the three members in their Lance that were combat trained. He even saw some action on the front lines defending the northern border from Tyrain Raiders. They would from time to time slink across the border and hit one of the crater mining sites and make off with some valuable Bracium that helped build the Walkers. Bracium is a hardened metal with crystalline properties that allowed for more electricity to flow through it. This was the finial piece to the puzzle for Fusion based reactors. In terms of the Walkers, Bracium allowed for a miniature reactor to be stored on board to run the power control systems. Each of the walkers with these reactors installed could potentially stay out at a week at a time with out shutting down that is if it wasn't in intense combat that whole duration. In that case it would only be a days worth of intense combat before requiring a reactor shutdown.

Lulwut? I'm just a dude who writes.

Anyhow, I presume the general plot (from my skimming of the wiki) is a bunch of bad enough dudes in giant mechs/tonks who rescue the country with superior firepower and plot armour.

Hahaha yeah whatever Mr 10'000+ posts (Salutes to your skill)

Yeah mostly however I am going to keep it real that plot armor Is and AI in each of their mechs that can predict the future (5 to 6 seconds) accurately however most of it is mech fighting a la Front Mission from from Square Enix. All mechs have a ejection pod. IE have fun with flying off into the middle of nowhere in your steel coffin to fight without 3 feet of armour surrounding you and big guns to shoot.

Hm, interesting. Unfortunately, due to it no doubt being an up and coming game I am devoid of the "story", what's the Vanir Nation about? Is it on Earth? Some Alternate Planet? Do we have mechs, tonks, or both? I'm getting a bit of a Titanfall vibe where you can fight in your mech but you can also fight on the ground.

Ahh then I've led you astray,

The Republic of The Vanir Territories is a repetitively small nation on what one might believe as "Earth" However the world is very different from what it was. It now has rings and several orbiting satellites (some man-made). You could even say this is Post-Post Apocalypse where as a war had happened and creators litter the earth some with some filled for no earth native materials that allowed for the advancement of Mechs and Tanks.

The Vanir Territories is a Nordic nation with a small volunteer military that has until recently been focusing the progression of technology and the development of its nation. Also until recently had been advancing its Mech Technology to the point of developing more powerful but currently in prototype heavy energy based weapons and Artificial Intelligence to work with their limited Mech Forces. These Mech forces are highly maneuverable and can get up to the point of speed where they can slide and move faster that any other ground based armored vehicle. Infantry is a outdated concept other than a defensive force or escorting and backing up tanks. Sending infantry up against a Mech lance would be messy to say the least. If you have a mech you really rather stay in side it...

So to summarize:

In the sort of grim, possibly dark future of the XXth Millennium, the world now has rings due to a distant conflict allowing Shiny Magical Rocks/Materials used to make Mechs and Tonks, rendering infantry obsolete. The Vanir Territory, using the power of Science, have developed an AI that allows for some form of precognition, or Pausing the Game, and the neighbors are pissed/try to beeline and nab the tech for their own gains.

We as the players drive around in Tonks/Mechs for our own various reasons, either to aid the Vanir or to cash in on that sweet AI loot.

Yep Pretty much, but at one point all the players who have sided with the Vanir band together and create the Phantom Brigade and fight to take back the nation that has be slowly taken over by {Nation to be named} and become elite warfighters and characters for me to use in the future. Some may die along the way and the Vanir will have to re build but each player will beable to choose their side, or come in as their own PMT/FT nation and fight as long as they are from the planet and with the same relative technology level.
