After missing out on a squad based rp that looked like fun,I've decided to start my own.

Rules

Up to 150 Infantry

Up to 75 Aircraft

Up to 5 Ships or Subs(No Dreadnoughts,super carriers)

No Land Vehicles

No WMD

No satellites or Orbital Weapons

If there is anything you think I missed please let me know.

A Private Jet carrying a diplomat from each nation in this RP has crashed.A last radio message from the aircraft had stated that someone on the aircraft had caused it to crash.

Objectives

1.Find the Crash Site

2.Secure the Crash Site

3.Find and stabilize your diplomat

4.Find out who caused the aircraft to crash

5.Move your diplomat to a clearing 3 kilometers away for a medivac.

A telegram will be sent to one nation involved in this rp.The telegram will let them know that their diplomat is the one who brought the plane down.

Bump

sounds pretty cool

but as far as the 150 infantry go, its not proportional with the other stuff, i mean 75 aircraft and 5 ships, and onyl 150 inf?

i think that the aircraft and shisp shoudl be lowered

I am interested, but I belive that, if you can have ships you should be allowed a vehicle. Nothing like and IFV or a tank, but maybe a small jeep, HMMWV kind of thing. One or two max, and you can extend the distance you need to travel.

I will join this.

Alright,lets say 500 Infantry and I will allow small truck like vehicles,no LAVs or tanks

bump

ya know wat, what the hell, lets throw an Exponential diplomat on that plane

One 5 ton truck, a 5" mortar, and one platoon.

Or

one company of cavalry

150 men and 50 horses/pack animals
3 Wagons (has some armor plating)
3 MC-5 (5" towed Mortars)
30 cavalrymen

Hmmm... [ponders]... can I use one of my 13 thousand companies of logistics troops (Cavalry / Horse troops sounded a bit too low tech)

Most likely inserted via frieghter/train. Not even a real military steamer.

Sure, leys toss a PROHT 'diplomat' on the plane
(PROHT has a poor record of keeping good company in a diplomatic situation, normally just sends a Lt from the military, since they are usually going to just try and sell a PROHT "Military Insurance policy" to whoever they where supposed to meet.)

Hence he would be an obvious scapegoat until proven innocent.

brief summary of PROHT standard issue at squad level:

Assorted Cutlery and other 'necessities'
RPG-7/27 Rocket launcher
Assorted grenades
CM-16 (basicly a PROHT modified M-16 hence the prefix C)
CM-249 (see above)


Specialty stuff
(requires special training or is used only if large force available)
MMP-1 Man portable UAV, may cry a 'bombload' of 3 grenades
2 UAVs per 10 men
est combat radius: 45 miles

CM-2 Heavy Machine Gun/fully automatic sniper rifle
Pretty much a very good off the shelf knock off of a very famous gun.

[keep in mind the Bren was a smilar knock of of a czech gun, coincedently also copied by the germans to get the MG-34 (they dropped in a belt feed)]

Also note: awhile ago, we procured a few 1/10th Ga Fully Automatic Shotguns, Phoenix militia claims they are man portable, but then again, it IS essentially a 10 pounder smooth bore auto-cannon firing APDS with coaxial assualt rifle.

Note: theoreticly, a 1/10th Ga shotgun would have a bore of approxamately 4 inches...
Also note: PROHT managed to get these because Phoenix militia messed up the specs a few decimal places, including the price of onlt $1.1K

And for our own safety, PROHT has 'bulked up' these odd contraptions and placed them on a 'limited issue' basis.

hmmm... mabe I should have just stripped down a CC-35 35 mm cannon and used that instead, it would then fire a standard size shell...

Just a fair warning on what you're getting into if you let me in...

I'm interested, but I won't be using to many men, no more than 110 (104 to be exact). All inserted by plane plus one HMMWV.

I am going to use a single company of Orthae, two-hundred men, deployed from a section of OPARR fleet that was in the area.

There will be five platoons of forty men, divided into four squads of ten.

Each squad has

-5 Riflemen (AS-Val silenced assault rifle)
-2 Assault (Vikhr SR-3 compact assault rifle)
-1 Sniper (VSS "Thread Cutter" sniper rifle) or Heavy (RPG-29 rocket propelled grenade launcher)
-1 Support (RPK-74 light machine gun)
-1 Sergeant (Vikhr SR-3 compact assault rifle)

Each man also carries an OTs-27 Berdysh select fire machine pistol with laser sights. I will get a picture of one of them up soon.

OOC: We need a good backstory to make this decent. 1.Where was the plane heading and why? To some international convention perhaps? 2.In what country is the crash site located? 3.What's the climate and terrain like? 4.Who are we going to fight against, =who will play those "terrorists" or what ever they are?

After getting some answers to these, I think I'll sign up too.

I'd like to join if possible. If needed, I can play any terrorist or hostile force near the crash site.

I'd love to be involved if I could.

can we have horses?
I always keep some cav around, and here, were we cant have vehicles looks like just the spot for them

From waht I've gathered we're going to be fighting eachother, at least eventually...

The diplomats could have been at some non-important kind of international meeting, discussing fishing rights on some disputed waterway or something, mostly because I;ve never had too mcuh contact with any of your nations.

I would really like a temperate or jungle-ey place, maybe with some rocky highlands and rivers.

How the hell would we start to shoot eachother after someone has shot down an airplane full of diplomates? Situation like this calls for close co-operating, and I can hardly find any reason for any of us to fight rescue forces from other countries... But then again, someone may of course feel differently about this. Doesn't just seem too likely to me.

The Domininon does not trust, well, anyone...

And the story is one of the diplomats blew up or sabotaged the plane somehow, that might get people shooting, once they figure it out.

Maybe someone should play the country it crashed in, maybe they don't want us in there becuase they shot it down in secret or something.

I'm probably going to bring in a few light vehicles, maybe enough to motorize a platoon of guys. Probably my LV-08 vehicles, I love those.

Six LV-08's, five armed with heavy machine guns, one with a 40mm grenade launcher. I might throw in some UAVs, now that I think about it...

The Armed Republic of Lacrosse Defensemen takes these matters very seriously, after and Ally requested our assistance we have decided to insert two Operational Detatchment Alpha teams (24 men), of our highly trained Green Berets, they will be boarding a C-17 as we speak out of Pope AFB. Once over the crashsite they will suit up into their HALO (high altitude low opening) and they will perform a night jump. They will jump from 19,875 ft. and will free fall for 2 and a half minutes, they will open their chutes at 1500 ft. Once they land. they will proceed three miles to the crash site. Once there, they will secure the area, and get our allies diplomat out of there. They will then walk 12 miled to the LZ, where 2 black hawks flown by the 160th SOAR, will be waiting, and where one Pave Hawk will be waiting with a team of Pararescuemen ready to go. Once in the helecopter they will proceed with escort by 2 Apache gunships, to an Amphibious Assaultship waiting offshore.

Good point there... if it was indeed one of the diplomates, then there's an excuse and possibility for hostility between rescue groups who can't trust each other.

Well, I think I'll sign in regardless. Hopely my questions will be answered later.

Hantur Bagum, 37, Major of Ground Forces (all Madnestian diplomates are officers) is missing. Warchief Tamujid has personally ordered General and creator or Madnestian Special Forces (called RATA), Tugam Odaghan, to take care of this incident.
He is in charge of the whole operation.
Commander in the field is a decorated war hero, one of the best soldiers in the whole nation, Colonel Gavrai. Strike Team "Shaugan" (tiger), 125 men and women transported by 18 x Anvang M2T Transport/Battle copters (Basically upgraded&modified Hind 24's) and supported by 12 x Andring M3B Battle copters (Upg&mod Kamov KA50).
Both the RATA ground forces and pilots of the First Special Task Air Assault Group are the elite of the elite, the best troops Madnestan has, equipped with the very best tools of warfare money can buy. They have been trained since they were taken from their parents in the age of three, and all are veterans of at least several special missions already.

A small squadron consisting of one Morrigan class guided missile cruiser, two Wallace class guided missile destroyers, one Bullfinch class frigate and one Court class medium carrier is located nearby and has recieved orders to retrieve the Cottish diplomat which was aboard the aircraft when it was downed. These vessels have been redirected to off the coast of the area where the plane went down and are currently in international waters just off the area. Aboard the carrier is currently six teams from the 3rd Special Operations Force (the Cottish equivalent to the Navy SEALs), in total 72 highly trained Special Forces soldiers. These will be inserted to the area via H-86B Merlin helicopters, supported by embarked AH-92B Stalker gunships, F-37G Razor multi-role fighters and F-43A Wasp (Aequatian OA-5A Wasp) tactical fighters.

isn't this an OOC thread?

Yeah, I think we need an IC thread, quickly...

Sorry about not replying,I spent most of my time last night at a mess dinner/dance and I spent some time with my mom this morning.I'll explain the reasons for the plane crash in the IC thread.I'll post a link to it in a few min.

Yessir.

Do we know what has happened to our diplomates? Meaning, can we RP them wondering in the jungle? I have nothing against their fate being unknown to all of us both IC:ly and OOC:ly, that would actually be propably even more interresting, just asking so that I know what to post.

EDIT: Also, tho whom does that island actually belong to?

EP, the link of yours doesn't work. "Improper URL, cannot open" it said. Try posting the straight link?

I'm afraid I'll have to drop out due to the fact that the IC thread says that the diplomats were doing something about nuclear weapons and my nation refuses to use them...

He was going to talk against WMD's in that convention then? Or something? This isn't something you should drop out of this RP for... A minor issue.

He was going to talk against WMD's in that convention then? Or something? This isn't something you should drop out of this RP for... A minor issue.

But see, the reason why fighting breaks out he says is because the nations don't want their nuclear secrets to be found out...

I might be able to RP the owner if the island. I actually did something before where I had a secret base on a 'newly' found group of islands...

So he said, true, but he still is an important person, and you for sure don't want him to get captured by any silly terrorists or evil foreign nations, right? Regardless of whether you have n00x or not.

I, for one, am fine with the idea of you owning the island also, though.

If you want to be the island owner go ahead.As for the diplomats wondering throught the jungle,chances are they are next to dead,I will allow you to decide what injuries your diplomat has.So chances are your diplomat can't even stand up.

Well, the northern half of New Roanoke Island fits the bill pretty good, also has a few 3rd party hostiles that inhabit the region.

(place is a perpetual uprising/zombie infested/military testing facility, no telling what you might encounter, plus PROHT doesn't like it when people go trauncing around their backyards)

But, I'll only let it go there if nobody else wants to host. (why would I send a diplomat to myself?)

By now would have a number of countries that would love to see PROHT ruined/get an excuse to go stomping around our secret labs.

But then I might provide brief cameos of my resident mechanised division (unless I can come up with a good excuse, oh, wait, found one... Border Patrol/internal security patrols).

PROHT (and all participating) spy satalites could be temporarily rendered useless for some reason possably related to the crash.

Normally if a plane goes down in tht region we'd just send in an APC and 10 to 40 guys, of course, if speed is of the essence, use helicopters.

hmmmm...
[looks up listing for PROHT airborne units]
That just might work...
5 marine MH-47 or V-22 from a Task Force should be enough to land, oh, 200 men...
Drop that number to 150, replace that mass with a few mortars and trucks...

Force used:

5 MH-47 Chinooks
3 troop carrying, one pure cargo, another a 'command chopper'.

3 HT-5 Logistics trucks

3 MC-5 Mortars

3 CC-35A cannons
(mounted on truck)

3 CC-35R AT-Rifles
(too lazy to use Pheonix militia's guns)

9 CM-2 Machine guns
(still like these, but might not work as well as I'd like)

150 men divided into 3 groups of 50 men

I'm guessing Pudu likes giving his troops plenty of armor plating, and if not, those cannons could deal with hostile planes.

The Aralonian Navy would like to participate in this exercise.

Force Composition:

150 Basic Infantry
-100x equipped with G3 rifle and UMP45 submachinegun
-50x equipped with MG36 squad automatic weapon and UMP45 submachinegun

5 Ships
1x modified Des Moines class cruiser, outfitted with 120mm high-velocity coilguns in 2 dual turrets, rear turret replaced with a 64-cell VLS system, side 5-inch guns replaced with quad 35mm coilgun mounts, other weapons replaced with 6-tube Stinger missile launchers
1x Ticonderoga-class cruiser with forward turret weapon replaced with quad 35mm coilgun system
2x Arleigh Burke-class destroyer with forward turret weapon replaced with quad 35mm coilgun system
1x refit Hermes-class light carrier (INS Viraat), replace Bofors cannons with quad 35mm coilgun system and Barak SAM cells with MIM-72/M48 Chaparral missile systems

28 + 2 + 2 + 2 + 2 aircraft/rotary-winged craft

Viraat-class carrier
-22x F-35 STOVL naval variant
-6x S-3 Viking ASW

The other stuff can be found at DMG's storefront...

Is there an IC thread yet?

Yep, here. (http://forums.jolt.co.uk/showthread.php?t=482537)

is it to late to join?

is it to late to join?
Not my desicion, but if opinions count I'd say yes - it is. That little island is filled with SpecOps from a dozen of nations and I for one am already completely confused with who's where doing what. We don't need any more units in there... for the sake of both gameplay and realism.

I'm going to guess Emporer Pudu is the country of orgin for the terrorist.

Since he opened fire first... And was the first to respond to the IC thread.

Bump.

Does anybody even remember if they blew up the plane?
