Earth II [ARCHIVE THREAD #1]

[Terrathol]

sorry I'm still new to earth 2, umm where do we put a military information do we start a new thread and do we put earth 2 on it as well?

[Cotland]

Yes.

@Bavin: Cottish private military contractors? Okay. The Arctic Tiger Ltd. PMC is willing to participate, if you pay them enough. Arctic Tiger Ltd. can offer highly experienced personnel with actual combat experience from among others the Kostroma War of 2007, the Hispanola Skirmish of 2008, the Patriotic Liberation War of 2009, and many other recent conflicts. Rate is $750 per person per day, plus ammunition costs, plus a monthly company fee of $1,000,000.

If all else fails in diplomacy stab the SOB in the eye.

Forgot I posted this in the main military weapon of your country topic.

[Abruzi]

Just to let everyone know (*cough* Bavin *cough*) , I added a PMC company to my Foreign Legion thread.

Quick question where are the earth 2 store fronts? Are there specific ones marked earth II we have to use?

That company is a mess. The T-34 would be annihilated in about four seconds flat on a modern battlefield and the F-14 Tomcat for air support? Do you mean air combat or close air support because if it's the latter Company X is going to last maybe forty seconds on the battlefield.

You can use whatever technology you want, NS or E2 or RL so long as its MT.

The whole force is supposed to an anti infantry unit, so the T-34s are really all they need to deal with infantry...that doesn't have any form of anti tank weapons. the light armor and pathetic air support is designed to emphasize this. It's made up of Foreign Legionnaires so they are expendable. (edited out the Marines portion) I edited out the Tomcat, replaced it with the A-10 for close air support but even still that leaves the unit more or less unsupported.

Company X has to purchase their own gear and since they really have not been employed anywhere yet they have to settle for bad equipment. When they've been in a few Rps (one of which I am planning now.) and have some funds, better stuff will be added and the crap like the T-34 will be taken out.

Why would an A-10 make it unsupported? Of course you're probably better off using helicopters for CAS or something because of their versatility but an A-10 is pretty much going to wipe the enemy off the face of the map.

[Mount Kip]

I think thats his point lol

[Abruzi]

Yeah, it'll dominate in close support but I'm assuming the enemy has some air power themselves, and for all the hell it can unleash, there's only one. So if unit A is taking hell from some T-72s and the A-10 comes and turns them into swiss cheese, simultaneously unit B-j is getting overwhelmed by the rest of the armored division, or waves of enemy troops.

I don't think the T-34 would work very well even as an anti-infantry unit. I mean there is no unit of at least platoon size without LAWs' or RPGs' and those would go through T-34's. Probably be a better bet to get 5 more BMP-1 therefore you'll maintain a decent main armament and armor, but you'll also have a faster force because it is now a motorized rifle force with amphibious capabilities and an ATGM attachment on the side of the vehicle to deal with armor.



@ anyone: who would I purchase M1A1's from?

[Layarteb]

@ anyone: who would I purchase M1A1's from?

Nobody. RL equipment can be made on your own but if you so desire the LDC can make and export them.

[Abruzi]

@ anyone: who would I purchase M1A1's from?

Probably Lay, though I can supply T-72s,T-90s, or a small number of T-100s if you want Russian gear.

On the T-34 issue, once they are in a few campaigns and make some cash they will have better tanks. The whole business is in a start up phase right now, and money is tight.

That would make a lot more sense for my nation has no tank production facilities. Or fixed wing aircraft production or >Frigate navy facilities

here is the order to be place BTW:

50 M1A1 AIM SA Abrams w/soft-kill Loral VLQ-6 Missile Countermeasures Device (MCD)
10 M88A2 Hercules Heavy Recovery Vehicle
20 MAN TGA 8x8

Alright we'll RP it in your thread.

Sounds good (While I wildly think how to word it because I am such a noob at rping)

[Layarteb]

It'll probably be like $250 million.

Sure, fifty percent shares for say....five million and the ability to deploy them on a whim?

[Terrathol]

@ Layarteb: ok so I can afford it. I'll rp it in 1 sec.

@Abruzi: deal

BlackAdder Security LLC may be interested in a full buy-out of Company X.

[Abruzi]

BlackAdder Security LLC may be interested in a full buy-out of Company X.

How about a partial buy...say ten of the remaining percent.


Also general question to everyone, would anyone like to be my General Giap for my Foreign Legion thread? (last post=Dien Bien Phu situation)
