The Rumbrian Military Academy (Open, sign-up OOC.)

[Rumbria]

IC:http://forum.nationstates.net/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=81040

OOC. Because the Quendisphere academy was a great idea which was, unfortunately, cut short, I decided that, with the little free time that I have, it would be prudent to start up a Rumbrian replacement.

The academy is open to individuals of all nationalities.

Anyone signing up will undertake regular training, and not officer training, unlike the Redzone thread. Officers will be selected during the process.

Applicants can be any age, though I would prefer that most have no prior military experience.

The thread will run as late PMT, if no one has any objections, as it is rare, if ever, that I actually get to run Rumbria in its current time period

The application form is here:

He lost his documents when he visited Rumbria 3 months ago. Cheated by some 'bad' travelling agent that left him an illegal.

Whether this is true or not, Alex is set for his 1st day in boot camp.

[Red Zone 1]

Yay, almost a full section.

By the way; what do you mean "with little time I have left" in the intro?

And late PMT. That's quite new to me. Means elements of FT is already exist right?

[Rumbria]

Basically, at present I have little free time. In just under a month, I'll have plenty.

Late PMT is basically, as you described it, elements of FT but lacking FTL travel etc...

All applicants are ACCEPTED

EDIT:

I'll start an IC thread after one more sign-up

[Loflinia]

Well I'm really an mt early pmt nation, so will I be that out of place?

[Rumbria]

Not particularly

All things considered, most of your characters may be slightly wowed by some of the more prominent advances, but there won't be anything particularly overt, considering that Rumbrians are generally reluctant to show off their technological advances to foreigners.


EDIT: If the general consensus is against late PMT, I'll relegate it to mid-early

[Blademasters765]

Well I am MT myself but I will send my nation years into the future to be PMT for this

[Red Zone 1]

Oorah! Bump!!!

Someone better fill in the application post.

Use your time in the Jeep to talk to one another, characterise etc... It is a character RP after all

[Red Zone 1]

Please note.

Not going to be available for the three whole weeks starting 1st December. I'm being deployed for 3 weeks extensive army training. Heading into a "war zone" of my own, answering my call of duty...so I guess I am saying goodbye to internet connection.

So well, I'll post on the arrival and then relegate my character into Non Playable Character which the OP can control but of course I want him alive and well when I got back...so what ever it is you guys having. Don't let Alex die....yet.

[Waterlords]

Sorry guys, just seen the IC thread. And I have to look to my previous threads if I am a member of the academy. I will post soon.

[Red Zone 1]

Hereby relegating my character into inactive mode but playable by the OP. Offline soon! Don't let this die. Well I don't think I can online now so the op can control Alexander Corazon too so that he would not be left out.
