Here. Just Hider it.

The New Earth

@cpldingo
Holy crap, a Marine.

Anyway, why not? I may not be aiming for a real-life battalion composition but I may get some ideas.

The New Earth

@Legion-114
Somewhere in the early 2040s but since s*** happened, times have been stuck during the 2015-2020.

A.I. Commanders are still sci-fi but I guess I can let in prototypes.

The New Earth

@cpldingo
What confuses you, my friend? I will be happy to clear them for you.

@AtlasRedfox
Erm... I'm afraid this RP is for commanders only.

The New Earth

The Catastrophic Coincidences. Or as I like to call it, 'The Great FUBAR'. Or if you think those names are lame, just go with good ol' 'Apocalypse' or 'The End Times' or something.

A series of independent events that tore the world apart when they happened together at the same time, not allowing anyone to help anyone at all.

Fortunately, the United Nations had a contingency plan when this kind of crap happens. They saved what was left of the old civilizations by rallying the remnants of the scientific community and any military personnel still organized and put them in the most unaffected area in the world to reorganize. In this case, the British Isles and Iceland. Everywhere else was just too screwed over or unpredictable.

It's been twenty years since those events and the people want their world back.
But I think the world has already moved on.

Welcome to The New Earth!

You will be a commander of a platoon (Task force/unit/whatever), going out into the ruined world to scout out areas or gather resources or recover lost knowledge (documents/books/art). Or just go plain sight-seeing since no one in the U.K. or in Iceland know what's outside the islands.

There are a variety of units you can deploy. However, deployment is limited so choose them carefully. You are allowed to choose a maximum of six (or less) units per mission. Additionally, you can insert yourself into the field which will take up no slot.

List of Units

- Tactical Squad: Basic infantry unit consisting of a five-man team. Armed with rifles, they will do their utmost best to follow orders and accomplish their objectives. They can pick up special weapons found in the environment or from fallen special infantry.

- Engineer Squad: Infantry unit consisting of a four-man team. They are armed with shotguns but likely not to use it since their main function is to heal other infantry or repair vehicles. Other functions include constructing defenses and turret emplacements, hacking devices for benefits and obstacle removal. Commanders are issued a free Engineer unit if the mission requires it (but bringing an extra won't hurt).

- Machine Gun Team: Special infantry unit consisting of a three-man team. Two are armed with machine guns while the third serve as backup should anything happen. Very few can evade the hail of lead that can stream forth from this unit.

- Anti-Armor Team: Special infantry unit consisting of a three-man team. Two are armed with rocket launchers while the third serve as backup should anything happen. Only the most toughest of materials can withstand the armor-piercing potential of the rockets.

- Sniper Team: Special infantry unit consisting of a two-man team. One is the sniper and the other is the spotter. Both are trained to operate alone should anything happen. Sniper Teams have great lines of sight and can camouflage. Taking out targets with extreme accuracy and precision is a given for this team.

- Retinue: Special infantry unit consisting of a two-man team assigned to be the personal guard of the commander should he or she insert themselves into the field. Retinues are always equipped with Hercules Exoskeletons. They are like Tactical Squads and can be ordered to pick up special weapons.

- Escortees: Special infantry unit with varying amount of soldiers. Although armed with SMGs, it is advised to keep them from danger. Make full use of the benefits given by the play styles to keep them alive as they are the brittlest of all infantry units. They are only deployed when the mission requires it.

= Tank: Vehicle unit with the heaviest firepower of all units. Slow but armored, Tanks can be used to break down obstacles or cover for infantry. The largest downside is that they are ill-advised to be deployed in most terrains of the post-apocalyptic world. They can be embarked by one infantry unit.

= APC: Vehicle unit mainly used to transport infantry but is armed with a powerful autocannon (or two). APCs have fast movements, reaching areas in short time which makes missions quick and efficient. APCs can traverse more terrains than Tanks but not all terrains can be traversed. They can be embarked by three infantry units.

You will be given three 'play styles' to choose from each mission. Analyze the given mission carefully and select the most appropriate style. However, since we don't know what we're up against (assuming there's something hostile in the mission), it's your gut who will be doing most of the thinking.

Styles

> Infantry
- All infantry units are equipped with Hercules Exoskeletons, making them more durable and increasing their overall effectiveness in combat. It also allows traversing of some impassable terrains.
- All infantry units can heal without Engineers.
- Tactical Squads can deploy defenses along with Engineers.
- All infantry units can camouflage.
- Artillery can be requested in open areas.
- Escorted personnel are equipped with Hercules Exoskeletons. Making them more durable.

> Airborne
- Regular infantry are replaced with Paratroopers. Paratrooper units can fill empty unit slots any time.
- Infantry units can replace lost soldiers.
- Equipment can be airlifted into the field for Paratroopers to use.
- Air Support can be requested in open areas.
- Escorted personnel can wait safely and be paradropped to areas once it is secure.

> Mechanized
- Vehicle units can repair without Engineers.
- Engineers can deploy unmanned drones to fill empty slots. (Drone is equipped by either dual minigun, dual rocket launchers or dual flamethrowers.)
- Escorted personnel are given an APC to ride. (APC does not fill a slot.)
- Commanders in the field are given a Command Vehicle to embark. Command Vehicles are mobile HQs with machine guns on all four sides with an automated minigun on top. They can be embarked by two infantry units.

This is still an Interest Check so no Character Sheets for now. However, you can suggest mission ideas along with your interest.

Genesis: Land of the Gods

I... take it that my newer character is not welcome?

Genesis: Land of the Gods

Hahaha. I understand. Hopefully this kinder individual gets your O-K.

"Ang mga diyos at diyosa ang nagbigay sa atin ng lahat na ito. Nasa sa atin upang ipagtanggol ito."

My Hider

Basic

Name: Gambang
Nicknames/Titles: (It's up to others what to call him)
Age: 22
Gender/Sex: Male
Birthday: July 7
Occupation: Peacekeeper
Where they live: Remote areas near Zin ; Now travels across Genesis
Species: Human

Bio
Gambang is a kind, polite individual on a mission from his tribe. A little awkward to others since he knows very little about the major cultures in Genesis. Especially the language.

Gambang hails from the Tondo tribe, an indigenous group of humans near the Land of Zin. As per Tondo culture, Gambang respects nature and resources gathered from it are not to be wasted. Young Gambang was born with power over the plants, something he practiced over the years. He also practiced sculpting and a little bit of art.

One day, the elders gathered. They told the tribe that they felt a great disturbance was going to threaten the world. The tribe chose their most skilled and proficient individual to combat the coming darkness, Gambang. Gambang was honored but a little reluctant since this quest meant he had to leave the tribe for a very long time, not to mention that the growing lands of the Zin were encroaching upon the land where the tribe lived stood.

Much combat practice was given to Gambang as well as the language spoken by the outside world. He was also given permission to use any means necessary to accomplish his mission and he was advised to gather allies or join teams or organizations if they prove useful in battling the darkness.

Once his training was finished, Gambang set out. To rid Genesis of those who would harm it and maybe, stop the destruction of his people.

Likes: Peace, the joy of others
Dislikes: Infringements of others' freedoms
Talents/Hobbies: Hunting, Sculpting
Alignment: Neutral Good

Combat:
Gambang focuses on speed and agility, relying on one-hit takedowns. He mostly avoids fatalities unless necessary. When fighting more durable foes, he aims for weak spots to immobilize them.

Having control over nature's flora gives him an advantage in forested areas, not so much in urban areas.

The Tondo tribe has no concept of honor, only victory so Gambang is not above using dirty moves to win a fight.

Magic Type: Nature

Fighting Style: Martial arts

Weapon(s):
- Two steel short swords
- Iron-spiked kanabo
- Bow and arrow (with poison bottle for coating)
- Hunting knife

Weaknesses:
- Fire
- Vulnerable to magic (unless given adequate protection)
- Wears little armor

Strengths:
- Extremely fast reflexes
- High perception
- High athletic abilities

Genesis: Land of the Gods

There are Nazis in Genesis?

@TheWindel

There are now. :3

I do think you may wish to perhaps call them something else, other than 'Nazis' though, but just my two cents xP

@Rune_Alchemist

Yeah, 'Nazis' is a bit too much but my lack of creativity prevents me doing so.

It's a placeholder name for now, I guess.

Genesis: Land of the Gods

@PaulHaynek
...well I was going to bed but then I saw this character.

Darn it~ You stole my idea for a Lawful Evil character. kinda xD

Welp, back to the drawing board. Tsk~

Well, unless you'd like to say maybe they're part of the same organization or something, if he gets accepted?~

@Rune_Alchemist

As long as you're human and hate everything else, you're welcome in the Nazi Club.
