The Washington Area's BoS Chapter is represented here. Small, hold out, possibly neutral and reluctant to play nice with the YKR. Could possibly also be at odds with the Outcast to create a story tension amongst us.

[hider=West Valley Division (aka “The Division”)]

[b]Army Specialisations:[/b] The West Valley Division is absolutely famous for its technical prowess in maintaining, finding, repairing, and using old-world technology. However, when it comes to combat and fighting for the Yakima Republic, as it has assimilated into it after sometime of holding out, it specializes specifically in long-range reconnaissance and insertions into enemy installments to sack the defenses. This is, more specifically described as long-range insertion/precision strikes. They are a small band, and using them for large-scale combat is not advisable. The Division is most valuable to the commanders of the YKR as a surgical blade, not a club.

[b]Army Origins:[/b] WIP

[b]Army Racial Composition:[/b] Humans. Only. And only those born into the Division can become military members. That is Brotherhood Law, no exceptions. So no, don’t ask to join. As a matter of fact, get out of my bunker, dammit. 

[b]Order of Battle:[/b] The Division has two companies of specialized troops. The first company, Alpha Company, comprises of roughly 30 troops. These men, Knights and troopers led by Paladin Roman, is used as the LRRP force to gather information, and scavenge for new materials and supplies for the entire unit. The second force, Beta Company, is used as a strike group. Led by Paladin Kern, Beta Company has 60 troops, split into two platoons of 30. This unit uses more up-to-date Power Armor, their weapons are in a high state of repair, and they train for one specific purpose: Combat. [LIST]

[*][I]Alpha:[/I] 30 troops. Led by Paladin Roman. Recon and Scavenging. Laser rifles, plasma rifles, other assorted energy weapons of both the rifle and heavy variety. Power Armor of the T45b type. Not a viable option for prolonged engagements.[/*]
[*][I]Beta:[/I] 60 troops. Led by Paladin Kern. Strike Group and Assault Force. Same armaments as Alpha, though in much better condition. Power Armor of the T51d type. Ideal for fast action and quick response forces. Also used for insertion into enemy positions and quickly taking objectives. Not for prolonged campaigns.[/*][/LIST][/hider]
