Due the relocation and modernization in Rubberduckistan´s Special Designation Troops, two former bases used by said forces are now opened for international training. Our trainers are all veterans of Raving Duck´s (Rubberduckistan´s satellite state) counter-insurgency operations, and highly qualified. Average cost to train one SDT-trooper is 2M£ due the cost of equipment, fuel, vehicles (air and ground), munitions etc. Now as some of the equipment is due to be phased out, we can offer you the training course (slightly modified) of SDT in 1,2M£, and still make profit. Four year course covers throughly all the needed knowledge in Guerrrila/Sabotage Operations, Long-Range Reconnaissance, Basic- and Advanced Sniper, Infiltration, Basic- and Advanced Parachuting, Basic Psychological Warfare. Futher courses in Urban Combat, Advanced Field Medic, Languages, Intelligence Analysis, and Counter-Special Forces Ops (trainers from our "Hunter Battalions" of Ministry of Internal Security)

400 000£ enlistment pay is non-refundable, in case trainee quits the program, rest of the sum is paid when training is completed.
For futher information, contact us in Camp Ahma, Special Designation Troops Training Camp (Former 1214th Training Regiment)

May I send 300 of my men to train there? This should cost £600 million (It's good to see someone using our glorious pound as currency!) and the money has been wired. When can I expect the troops to finish if they take ALL courses?

Well, since you are sending 300 men, which is reasonable number my facilities and trainers can handle, I´d say we can have them in operational capacity in 5 years. That would mean toughened training schedule, but I suppose you send only the best. Training everyone in every field, is bit counterproductive, so my trainers advice that all trainees get the regular training, plus three advanced courses. After they return your homeland, they can pass their knowledge to others, and you still get operational unit in less time.

Contract accepted. Hopefully you are satisfied with your troops, when they are ready.

Colonel-General Kaitsenkov of Rubberduckistani GHQ (Operations Department)

Yes, They are the best. They are the members of the INK (Intelligent Neighbors Kommando's) and have already been trained to be elite. This course is just a way in which they can see how other forces are trained, so I would appreciate it if they could take all the courses, at a slightly speeded up rate (5 years is fine). How long in RL will 5 NS years take?

Sorry, no idea. And since search function is disabled, let´s say 5 days or so.
So all the courses it is, that meaning they will be putting 16hrs training/day with with sundays off, if not in field excersize.

Fine, Fine

interesting, tag

I´ll be posting pics, when I can move them to new host, since old host is quitting.

Interesting...

It is my custom to send my Jaggs (1000 of the best) to every training for SF's I can find, as for them to learn other methods then prior training. Although...most courses don't last 4 years. Might I be able to send 250, then 250, then 250, and then 238 (988 actually) over the period of 12 years?

Do you use Russian or Western arms for your training? We may be interested in sending a small cadre of our Spetsnaz Operational Group to your centre to train as instructors for our own Teams.

The nation of Morvanus would be interested in sending several hundred of our best soldiers for training at your facilities. The numbers would be as follows:

500 for Basic Training, followed by courses in Urban Combat and Counter-Special Forces Op
200 for Basic Training, followed by courses in Advanced Field Medic
200 for Basic Training, followed by courses in Languages and Intelligence Analysis
100 for Basic Training, followed by all advanced courses

If you are interested in taking on our soldiers, then please reply with confirmation and a quote.

That can be arranged, and now there is room for more trainees, since Intelligent Neighbours training is almost complete. We will be arranging that advanced courses can be taken separately, when trainees are already experienced SF-troopers. Price will be negoatiable.

Rubberduckistan/Raving Duck uses Russian weapon systems. SDT get more thorough training also in most common Western light weapon systems, up to 81mm mortars, ATGM´s, HMG´s. Heavier systems are studied time and material permitting. SDT´s Counter-Terrorist Team, Spetsgruppa Ahma (Wolverine), uses MP5´s in various configurations, .338 TRG-41.

If you are interested, Camp Opossumi is available with Barbarosea´s trainees.

Camp Ahma is being made ready for your troops.

Training. Live fire drills are common, as are assault courses with real chemical agents. (Tear gas, and occasionally some more incapacitating non-lethal agent) Obstacle courses with instructors firing near trainees and detonating explosives. One thing that is drilled throughly to trainees, is that there is one more thing you can do to win. One more push-up, one more mile to run, never say die.

Intelligent Neighbours Kommando´s training is now complete. Of 300 trainees 7 were injured in helicopter accident. Rubberduckistan will send them back after their injuries have healed.

*bump*

Hmm... this is interesting. What do you teach them to do? Could I send 500 of my Grey Ops troops? They are future-tech (they use personal cloaking devices), but still used advanced cartridge based weaponry (i.e., guns). I'll give a confirmation when you reply.

All members of SDT get trained in;
-All Russian military small arms
-Most common Western military small arms
-Russian heavy weapons up to 82mm mortar
-Basic sniper
-Operating and survival in;
-Arctic
-Desert
-Jungle
-Urban
-NBC (Nuclear, Biological, Chemical)
-Parachuting
-Basic
-Low-altitude, Low-opening
-Heliborne Operations
-Rappeling
-Fastroping
-Basic Demolitions and Combat Engineering
-First aid
-Tracking
-Basic Signals and Communications
-Basic Interrogation
-Escape-Evasion-Resistance of Interrogation
-Cold Weapons and Unarmed Hand to Hand Combat
-One foreign language, must be fluent. (There is additional 20% salary bonus for every additional foreign language fluency)

That´s just part of the basic required, men are posted on specialist courses after 18 month basic training. I´ll post more soon, including advanced courses available.

PRNK would like to send 50 of it's members to your fine estalishment. Money has been wired to your account.

We like like them to be enrolled on your course outlined in the message before this.

Just making few "missions" (just for posing really) with Operation Flashpoint Editor, and then take screenshots with FRAPS. =)

To Rubberduckistan:

Your trianing camp sounds like quite a good training program. It might be enough to give the Triancian Army a bit more respect over a number of years, and may finally be recognized as a force to be recokened with. Unfortunatly, I only have control over enough discretionary funds to send 25 men to trian with you. I want the full package for each, and any additonal training you can give in insturction.

And let's keep this between ourselves, shall we?

Contract accepted. If you wish, we can send instructors to your conventional forces, to train you military. 100 instructors, 5 years contract, for 100M £, renewable if satisfied. Land- and Air Forces only, sorry. Plus Military Intelligence, Medical Services, and new Information Warfare.

It is quite a genourous offer. Fortunatly for us, though, the 5th MEF is doing a fine job of trianing our new ACR's, though I grudgingly admit that.

Thank you for your offer, and I hope to mantain business between the Triancian Army and yourselves in the future.


Tomas Britchard,
Commander-General of the Triancian Army

No problem. Union of Socialist States of Rubberduckistan is always pleased to do business with satisfied customer.

Ooc:And as bump, new pictures are posted periodically to first post, when I have time to make them.

Thanks for my men Rubberduckistan.

I will get the insurance people to give me the money for my injured men :).

Sorry for that, accident do happen. (ooc: had to come up with this to have a bit flavor for story. I´m learning, hopefully :) )
If you need any other training for your troops, just give us a call.

To Arizona Nova.

Sure, your troops are welcome to train, even when Rubberduckistan´s tech is bit backward for your troops. :)

Thanks for the funds gotten from our first contract, our cybernetics research got much needed funding. Expect possible improvements for our offered training also.

Colonel-General Kaitsenkov. Operations Department

*bumpity bump*

Good, we design our weapons to operate the same as most standard modern tech weapons anyway, so even if advanced weaponry isn't available, they can fall back. Alright then, I'd like to send 500 Grey Ops hopefuls in for training; the full gamut.

Bah! Training? Why don't I just kill my slaves and throw them at the enemy instead? That might work some good.

Just making few "missions" (just for posing really) with Operation Flashpoint Editor, and then take screenshots with FRAPS. =)

That's cool dude! I'll hand it to you!

On the lighter note though, how can the EOL be useful with special forces training. Our SF and Black Ops are second to none. We can supply weaponry and such if needed and lowered cost. Just let us know.

Could the nation please confirm PRNK's order status? :)

Is lump sum of 1M£/trainee acceptable? We are installing the new VR-training simulators to be used in bases, so that helps the learning process also.

The Special Operations Forces of the Federation of Medved are second to none. They begin training shortly after birth, and are the pentultimate in military expertise. Perhaps you would like to send your best to us for some better training?

Do you have a status report on the training progress of my Grey Ops? Or am I asking a stupid question again because I didn't read carefully enough? ;)

My SF are fine, they have training options available in every continent. Where are the pics from?

Pardon Arizona Nova and North Koreastan. Your troops are ready today. Luckily we had no accidents in this training group.
Barbaroresea, thats ok location. They will taken with buses to their camp. Expect them to be ready in 5 RL days.

Hogsweat. I make them with Operation Flashpoint and FRAPS.

Thank you. It has been good doing business with you. Should your intelligence agencies require any training, please don't hesitate to call.

Take 400 of my guys for normal training. Take a further 100 of them, do the basic course, then the special ops course.

Cheers

I'd like to send 300 elite IIRRAAQQII troops to this training program. 600M has been sent to your nations account.

nice job on OFP editing!

Spunjonia and IIRRAAQQII, welcome to training. :)

I´ll be posting new pics here, so check back to see your trainees in action.

Here we have the last platoon boarding AN-124 "Kondor", for combined arctic survival/reconnaissance training exercise. They will dropped to Rubberduckistan´s northernmost tundra, where they will spend 3 weeks training and testing various essential skills.

Ok, and nice pics.

After this last batch of trainees is through, we are closing place for reorganization and refitting. Our sincere thanks for our customers.

Do you need any financial assistance?

ooc: My connection is screwed, and the company will repair it. Don´t know when I´ll be back online. Also, I´m planning to make the advertising and courses more coherent and modular, to fit the individual tastes and needs.

OOC: Oh, ok, lol.

Ok, back in business. Barbarosea, IIRRAAQQII, and Spunjonia. Your troops are ready tomorrow, hopefully they will serve you well. After that, Camps Ahma and -Opossumi are closed for renovating and refitting. We will be back next week with whole new, and hopefully better organized thread, with partial RP/storytelling included. Stay tuned for more tales from the Rubberduckistan. :)

Another 100 men, showing promise in our Special Forces, shall be sent to study in Counter-Special Ops and Urban Combat, to further hone their skills in those areas. 50 Soldiers shall be sent to study in Advanced Field Medic courses. Another 20 shall be trained in Intelligence Analysis. And 30 more will be required to take courses in Guerrila/Sabatoge Operations and Urban Combat.

This brings the total men-in-training to 212, the amount of 84,800,000£ shall be paid in full upon the receit that our Soldiers have arrived are being prepared for training. The remaining 254,400,000£ at the end of the course.

Negative. Your contract is not accepted.
1. We are closed
2. Your economy could not sustain the investment. Price would be 42 trillion£
3. We do not have room for so many
4. Probably 1% of them would qualify as SF-troopers anyway
