Team 7


Nodding as he saw his genin prepare, he jumped backwards in front of the beautiful and old tree. In fact, it was a shame to cut down such a nice and old tree, who had somehow survived all this time in the middle of the violence around it. Nevertheless, that was part of the plan he had in mind. Casually standing in front of the tree he awaited any attack from the genin. He almost yawned, but wasn't tired enough for that. Strange, he thought as he yawned, a sign of the Gods to prove him wrong, how even thinking of yawning could make one do so.
Hell yes!
Sure, more souls more fun!
We'll probably be roleplaying one squad of troopers, which is 9 soldiers in detail., so that's our max limit of RP'ers, except maybe the jedi, if I don't RP that one myself.

To make things easier, we'll be the first squad of the first platoon of the first company of the first battalion. Battalions can be lead by jedi padawan, and otherwise we won't be wor,king with one, since arguably the best troopers in a legion is the 1st designation of everything and the padawan would most likely lead us.
Also, sorry for double post; Sure! Feel free to join Agent57!
Nice. We have by now gathered more details about the idea:

We will be clones in the 1st battalion of the 2nd regiment of the 67th legion (does not appear anywhere in canon so freedom applies). The 67th legion is a reserve legion, one deployed in different planetary sectors as needed, and as a result is a very specialized legion compared to its brethren. The 67th legion is trained as a purely offensive force designated to break through the worst stalemates. They use brutally agressive tactics involving many rather reckless and daring assaults with high coordination and mobility. They are specialized in taking ground really quickly and then keeping it untill a defensive perimeter is set up. As a result they are best at attacking all positions, keeping them, and counter-attacking.

Due to their specialized array of tasks their clones have all been given limited ARC-trooper training, as outfitting an entire legion with ARC trooper training would be a waste of budget. Nevertheless, their clones are on average a lot more individual and creative than others. This inventiveness aids them greatly in improvizing tactics in the chaos of a quick and brutal mobile offensive. They are also very adept compared to even ARC-troopers at close range combat, both in melee and in firefight situations. A side-effect of this is that they are theoretically speaking a legion that is perfect for taking down extremely high-risk targets such as jedi or sith...

Despite their offensive role the 67th legion uses relatively few vehicles. They have a limited supply of heavy AT-TE walkers for a determined offensive on all terrains, but their signature vehicles are the well-known LAAT/i gunships, or 'Larties' that allow great flexibility and provide very efficient air support, in combination with fast and mobile packs of AT-RT's. These are supported by a hardy and mobile infantry force that is very flexible in terms of equipment. They also posess limited artillery in the form of AV-7 Antivehicle Cannons which are just like every vehicle in the 67th legion's arsenal carried into battle by the battle-proven LAAT/i.
Also, very important: Our clones will bear green colour markings on their armour in normal combat, but have camouflaged armour in reserve for different environments. We use the standard clone weaponry, the DC-15A blaster rifles and the DC-15S blasters, dependant on the soldier's preferences. (Ofcourse, some units will also carry the sniper rifle variants, rocket launchers, chainguns, ..., dependant on their tasks)

Result for plot: We will be fighting on countless fronts on many different planets and systems, a buttload of diversity. Due to our agressive and mobility-favouring combat nature and our focus on infantry and light vehicles we are also ideal for marine boarding actions, so even in space battles we'll do just fine.

I will be completely brutally and irriversably accepting you.
I do not know Republic Commando, but I suspect it is a game of sorts. Basically we will play some nameless grunts from a group of clones and maybe one player will play a jedi general at best. We will roleplay how we fight our way through the clone wars and the later galactic civil wars in a rather grim scenario, since we are the expendable soldiers after all. We will most likely all survive through plot armour if you want to but you can always die and just roleplay 'yet another' clone that is your replacement.
So I had this roleplay idea playing in my head for a while now, and I'm making this interest check in a bit of a hurry because of excitement, lack of time and the extreme urge to write about it.

The story: I need to research further into this, but basically we begin at Geonosis. The attack of the clones, the begin of the clone wars. We will be troopers from one of the hundreds of clone legions serving there, and we will follow the story throughout the war, into the galactic civil war era. Order 66 will be a very interesting turning point for us, We will most likely play as the 41st Elite Corps because they had a knack for hostile environments and agressive tactics, something our characters will learn to cherish and hate.

The fact that we will all be clones, except for maybe one or two lucky RP'ers who are granted the jedi rank in our RP will limit the effectiveness of a CS, but I'm making one nevertheless.



Please note that this will be a realistic RP. Clones are expendable. They die. If you do something overly heroic or stupid you will die too.

So entire team 7 is you and me now?


Yes, unless you decide on not posting. Sooner or later we will get a new person in the squad, that happens. We can always find reasons why the other had to leave, for example, failing Kensuke's test with great succes,anything really. We could even add an NPC in their team just for a while. In any case, please get to posting or the team'll be disbanded.

Nodding as he spoke she placed her plank on the water too, dragging the others towards the puddle as she went. Ofcourse. Teamwork, she could've guessed that by looking at the two squirts accompagnying her. What else would they test when getting to know eachother? She waited a moment untill the plank stabilized and then gracefully stepped on it without a moment's hesitation, and stand on it upright. It was hard to hide the smile that almost naturally formed on her face. Living in the Court of the Land of Iron had learned her a lot of things. How to look like she was paying attention while she was in fact partially asleep, how to nod and smile while you in fact wanted to stab the other person's eyes with a bent and unsharpened spoon, ... A lot of things, mostly useless when not at the court. But all of those things combined did teach her interesting abilities. Sitting straight or standing in the same gracefully elegant position for hours required a level of only equalled in monasteries, and a resistance against unecessary movements such as scratching, twitching or anything else that could disturb that delicate balance.

This excercise was a piece of cake for her. Unless her teammates would make her day sour by dragging her under. No, she didn't trust the others for a bit. Teamwork was one thing, but a team was only as strong as the weakest link. And in no way she was intending to get soaked with muddy water because some clumsy teammate of hers would be unable to balance on a ridiculous plank in a laughably small pond.
