Thinking about a conflict/zombie RP set between October 1917 and December 1919. Starting with the Kerensky Offensive and ending in the North Russian/Siberian Intervention of 1918-1920 by American forces to evacuate war-materials.
Incidentally, this RP will be assuming SCP-186 WILL NOT be contained.
For more information, please read SCP document 186-52: Letter from Pvt. Pyotr Avtukhov, participant in the Battle of Husiatyn Woods.
Will send an armored-train of reinforcements to the Husiatyn wood, Ukraine at once to stabilize the situation, contained within will be an armored unit of Legionnaires to help restore order.
~Long live the Republic.
LOOKING FOR
A FEW GOOD CO-GMS
Players will be allowed to RP as any nationality with any loadout within reasonable justification of existing TO&Es and concepts of the era, and are expected to be willing to RP their gear literally going through hell to the point of failure (including those old-timey uniforms), and then being forced to fight-on with broken weapons against a foe that cannot die.

Types of zombies:
Herbert West's Re-animates (American):
West got his true test on the fields of Flanders in 1915, and since then has slowly built-up a small army.
Frankenstein's Mosnters (Austrian) and Human Centipede / German Abominations:
-Previously dead, can be killed, but Frankenstein's original creations were usually taking the literal 'best bits' of soldiers
-The German 'abominations' on the other hand, were often creations from still living, or unkillable test-subjects in order to supplement their existing abilities. Multi-armed specimens were found not to have the bone-structure to make heavy-lifting feasible, however many examples have been pressed into use as 'field medics' for German forces in order to speed-up this labor-intensive process of grafting limbs back together. The monsters are still fielded as heavy-weapons specialists.
Medium Joseph Crowley's Substutiary Locomotion (British):
These forces were offered as an armored platoon of unmanned tanks (one Medium Mk VII-F, and four Renault FT), commanded by a group of officers for tactical advisement and occultist medium "J. Crowley". At their request, the Russian Imperial War Museum allowed this unit access to all the old uniforms of Crossacks and other ranks loyal to Russia.
Crowley then began training several other units locally and allwed each to have a single command-tank.
Later in the conflict, many of these members were no longer fit for command, and were summarily shot for cowardice. Crowley now commands an unmanned supply-convoy as a conscientious-objector.
Dr. Jean Durand's "Prussian Blue" (French):
Rasputin's Demonic Possession (Russian):
Not as effective in combat as other forces, but often used as a last resort to coerce Cossacks to obey orders.
-Thankfully, the death of Rasputin has curtailed the use of this particular technique.
Needless to say, for many of these, shooting them in the head won't do shit.
*And for some reason, the Soviets thought they knew quite a bit on reviving the dead.
And none of that rubbish of "But we don't want to fight!"
Now I order you, BACK TO THE TRENCH!
