Civil War in Mer des Ennuis (signup and Interest thread)

Well, since TKC left, i think I can move forward with this idea. After the rebellion in my country that left a city destroyed, I'm going to have the national guard/city divisions split into total civil war against my regular army, along with a large percentage of the population, of which I'll have to retake most of my land (figure most of the southern half). Anyone interested?

Ok, basically, Mer des Ennuis is a constitutional dictatorship. The dictator, currently Carpathia Ziemowit, is appointed the title of Arch Arsonist, and is able to do with the country as he pleases. Currently, the country has an elected legislature that deals with the day-to-day runnings of each city and of the country. The Arch Arsonist, as dictator, is able to circumvent the legislature and impose any law or order as he sees fit. The national guard, unlike in America, is not made of weekend warriors, but is active duty city garrisons. They provide rescue and relief efforts, train the civilian defence force (all citizens are given M16A4's upon turning 18. Enthusiasts report for training twice a month for a 1.5% tax break, which they end up using to buy more ammunition/uniforms/etc.), and act as a city garrison. They recieve decommissioned equipment deemed fit for service (i.e. the Merkava 4 will end up going as an armored brigade to suppliment the ZSU-23-4 Shilka assault/anti-air vehicle because it is still a decent tank).

The Forces loyal to the Arch Arsonist (meaning regular military) outnumber national guard forces almost 2:1, but do not have as much of a civilian fighting-force backing. They will probably be seeking to maintian the status quo.

The National Guard forces are going to attempt to be more democratic, but not much. Since they work with civilians, they will have a larger backing, especially among anti-government activists.

Don't think you are going to be fighting for a large democractic idealist faction if you side with the national guardsmen; any post-civil war reforms will be minor at best.

Reading what you just posted, I’m thinking using small “freedom fighters” units on the rebel's side. Maybe fifteen to twenty of these units at first. Each unit having twenty-five to forty freedom fighters in them.

And one more thing, can I use a few mutants? Like Trevor (http://img210.echo.cx/img210/1180/trevor6lb.jpg) (Powers: superhuman strength, speed, endurance, reflexes, durability, hyper keen senses, healing factor, and razor sharp claws)

Well this isnt the X-men world now is it. This is Modern Tech in Nation States. MT does not include X-men mutants. Now if you use the X-men, I'll turn the Power Ranger and the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle on your arse. So just leave the fairy tale heros out of it.

The part about the Power Ranger and the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle being put on my arse was just uncalled for. Makes me think about dropping out of this, if you are going to act that way.

Do you care that I use a mutant that has built in night vision in his eyes?

My “freedom fighters” units will be special op soldiers of the
16th Shadow Foxes (http://i4.photobucket.com/albums/y101/CountJWolf/16th.jpg), the best spec op division in the Dominion Army. Their weapons are these listed: an AR-66 silent assault rifle, a H&K SOCOM pistol, a Fox Tanto (or a Wild Tiger Commando Knife), four grenades (Flash bang, smoke, 2 frags) and a set of Transylvanian Body Armor (http://i4.photobucket.com/albums/y101/CountJWolf/TransylvanianBA.jpg) in dim gray and stale gray.

Fox Tanto (http://i4.photobucket.com/albums/y101/CountJWolf/FoxTanto.jpg): A solid 420 stainless steel black anodized blade. 9 1/2" overall.

Wild Tiger Commando Knife (http://i4.photobucket.com/albums/y101/CountJWolf/WildTigerCommandoKnife.jpg): The 9 3/8" blade is constructed from 420 stainless steel. 14 3/8" overall.

Not to nitpick, but there's no such thing as a silent assault rifle, unless it fires subsonic rounds, and then the effectiveness is quite limited.

It is not my design, first off. It can be found on this page: http://phoenixdynamix.proboards38.com/index.cgi?board=gunz&action=display&thread=1101880047 It is near the bottom of it.

I thought you were going to leave, if Mer des Ennuis allowed my mutants?

About the night vision eyes, this is what I had planned. The eyes are both normal and night vision. The night vision only takes over, if there is no light.

The Transylvania
19-06-2006, 18:37
That is why I don’t use normal rounds. Ever hear of HE rounds that I use? That I put over thirty years of my nation R&D that made for small arms.

And that gun is a SMG to me, Phoenix just calls it something else. Take a look at the picture: http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v293/grunt74/NS1/SDAR.jpg A bloody SMG. Mine are chambered for 9mm not the Phoenix’s 6.62mm rounds.

Plus, only my special ops use them. Meaning those soldiers are going to get up and close to kill the enemy. Plus, most of the time I use the knifes for the kills.

If its an SMG, then it will be firing pistol ammunition, and probably won't penetrate the average body armor/combat helmet i use. I'm going to start this RP after my naval upgrades, so probably before the weekend (or at least a day or two after).

AP rounds and HE rounds could do it. My HE rounds were used against Kraven’s CPs. So…if your helmet has eye holes, I have a target. :p

Listen hun, AP rounds rely on velocity and mass to penetrait body armor. If anything is silent it fires subsonic ammunition, even if in a AR caliber. The closes t you can get to a "silent assault rifle", is an assault rifle, (usually carbines, be meh) equiped with a silencer. You will still hear noise and the round will still be subsonic, just muffled.

Now you HE rounds. The smallest ammunition ever to carry HE is a 20mm round. So this is NOT going in any assault rifle. It is a grenade launcher. And because of the large charge needed to propel these larger rounds out, they have a very distictive sound and cannot be silenced effectively.

So, unless your at point-blank range, your not getting through any body armor with that gun.

My HE rounds are not like the ones in RL. The small size means less HE stuff. But it can be done. It just made the bullet like a mini-rocket when it hits. It would just take long time in RL to make them.

So, unless your at point-blank range, your not getting through any body armor with that gun.

All body armor has weaknesses. Don’t say they don’t have any weaknesses or you will be a liar. Mine body armor has weaknesses. Hell, Kraven’s armor has weaknesses. The red eyes in the helmet is a big one. This is OOC stuff I’m about to tell you, so don’t try and use in IC.

Transylvanian body armor has weaknesses in the helmet (The eye holes) and armor around joints (Neck, Shoulder, Elbows, Knees, etc.) You aim at a weak point and body armor is useless.

20-06-2006, 05:37
Hell, I’m changing my mind. Not going to use special ops. Going with ‘normal’ soldiers. A mixed team of two army divisions.

My “freedom fighters” units will soldiers of the 5th Sword Wolves (http://i4.photobucket.com/albums/y101/CountJWolf/5th.jpg) and of the 6th Soul Tigers (http://i4.photobucket.com/albums/y101/CountJWolf/6th.jpg) .

Sword Wolves: Their weapons are these listed: an AR-56 assault rifle, a PHX Hi-Power 10mm pistol, a Wild Tiger Commando Knife, four grenades (Flash bang, smoke, 2 frags) and a set of Transylvanian Body Armor (http://i4.photobucket.com/albums/y101/CountJWolf/TransylvanianBA.jpg) in dark faded blue and pale gray.

Soul Tigers: Their weapons are these listed: a DR-83 tactical rifles, a PHX Hi-Power 10mm pistol, a Lion Kukhri, four grenades (Flash bang, smoke, 2 frags) and a set of Transylvanian Body Armor (http://i4.photobucket.com/albums/y101/CountJWolf/TransylvanianBA.jpg) in dark gray and dark blue.

Wild Tiger Commando Knife (http://i4.photobucket.com/albums/y101/CountJWolf/WildTigerCommandoKnife.jpg): The 9 3/8" blade is constructed from 420 stainless steel. 14 3/8" overall.

Lion Kukhri (http://i4.photobucket.com/albums/y101/CountJWolf/LionKukhri.jpg): A 13" razor sharp blade constructed from stainless steel with a non-glare black finish. The impact resistant handle is lightweight for easy transport. 20" overall.

---------------------------

There will be fifteen team of thirty soldiers. (Half and half) Five units in three cities at a time. Yo Mer, I’m going to run this idea across you.

Say one of my companies bought warehouses in three of your cities. This company is a printing company that does big things. So, everything they use is going to be large. The people who will be working at this printing place with be my ’freedom fighters’, which have been in your nation for a few month before the company get the warehouses.

The printing stuff will be shipped in from the Dominion, the soldiers weapons and other things shipped hidden in the box.

Sound okay? I was just trying to see how my units could get there without using my air force to land them.

Just FYI, no one would confuse military equipment with paper... your men, in that case, would be ghosted by SS. I'm going to treat your men as if they were trained special forces light divisions (i.e. no major armor). Any plattons you send in that are found will probably be hit very heavily from both sides (i.e. they probably won't trust either side). But yea, go ahead, send light divisions in, just don't expect to get too terribly far. I'm going to be vastly upgrading my navy before the RP, just since its something i've been wanting to do for almost as long as this civil war. I also have to add some corps assets to each of my corps (24 total i think). Keep in mind that about 70% of my population is armed with 6.8 SPC M16A4's, and arms ownership is encouraged (just assault rifles, nothing too major) and will be pissed off at both sides (though i'm guessing more so at the national guard, who will be seen as rebels disrupting hopes for peace).

One side (NG) will know which side I’m helping.

But yea, go ahead, send light divisions in, just don't expect to get too terribly far.

One thing, these ain’t going to be fresh rookies out of boot camp. Some of these men has trained from the age 12 (Yes, the lowest age a person can be to join my age.) and are now 20 to 30 years old. Plus, most of them have fought in a battlefield. I have been through the some wars to gain my land.

I'm going to be vastly upgrading my navy before the RP, just since its something I've been wanting to do for almost as long as this civil war.

Then I will use my air force, I love blow navy ship to Hell from the sky. *evil grin* Wait, will the navy with the government or the NGs?

Maratime national guard is going to be destroyed relativley early in the game, and will use decommissioned ticos, burkes, perry frigates, Type 45's, Littoral Combat ships, possibly seawolfs, and possibly Wasps (merchant marine will not, on the other hand, rebel.). Most national guardsmen in the navy that will be rebellion will not be well armed (since they are supposed to stop drugrunners and the like with extreme prejudice, not land combat forces). I might give them Princep STOVL carriers as well, though that is up for debate.

Ok, here is what I want to do, and i'm open to both yays and nays.

I'm upgrading my navy, as most of you know. I can either adjust the timeline a tad to make the order finish up just as the civil war breaks out, or i can RP it from the date of order (tonight). If I go with the first option, then there will be a National Guard Navy, complete with STOVL carriers and Amphibious Assault Ships; making things a bit more interesting for both sides. If I go with the 2nd option, There will be either a very small guard maratime force or none at all. I leave this up to you, my fellow RPers.

I also am going to add some heavier assets at the corps level. Right now, my corps are 10 divisions without any real higher echelon assets. This should take me no more than a day or two, and I want to start the RP either thursday or friday. If I go away for the weekned, it will be up sunday night/monday. Just giving yall a heads up! Lets put the Aeson's current state to shame!

Those are the type of printing machines I will using. So, I could hide some stuff in them. The guns can be broke down and the body armor too. I will made a back story for my first post but here is the short version, one of my biggest printing firm wants new area to set up shop. That printing firm is just one of the many company that has been bought out by Timber Wolf Inc, owned by the man with the most power in the Dominion and holds the throne of the Dominion.

The RP will formally start on Sunday night. Most of you will be unable to land an actual force until 2 weeks after the start (due to the time it takes to mobilize and deploy) of the civil war, during which time more than a few cities will have been retaken. After the first event (which will take place during day 1 of the war) will be the best time to respond. I think there will be a 2nd notable event/post, probably around day 4 or 5, and a last one right before any forces can actually land. Thats about as far as I can forsee in the start of this RP.

Well I can have my forces there, right? The small teams will be in Ville des Lumieres, Ville de Bruit and Ville d'Espoir. Hope those cities will work. I thought they would be the best for me, one has a port and other two are in a good place inland.

Ville des Lumineres is currently a rubble heap; it was destroyed during the "Rebellion in Mer des Ennuis" thread, which leads kinda directly into this, with a month or two difference and some retconning (due to the dropping out of TKC). You could have a print shop if you like, it just might be a bit... out of place?

On which side? And i'm guessing you are new here, so you'll probably want to ask for some help. I'll give you a tentative yes for now. Try to avoid godmodding, and, if you want help, TG me your posts before you actually post them.

Well, I could always change the locations. I wanted a triangle. So…how about Mer de Ville d'Ennuis, Villi de la Vie, and Port de l'Est? And can you give me some detail about those cities. Thanks.

That will work. Just realize that the ports will be heavily bombed, and there will be particularly intense fighting at the 4 ports (Port de l'Est will also receive its fair share). Ville de Dieu is an important port, and will be a prime objective. Passage au Nord will have to be taken by sea (i.e. forced landing, very bloody) and Les Trois Villes will also be a harsh objective (these are all critical shipping lanes). Expect a blockade at Ville de Deplorment, which won't be too hard to enforce at all. This is all stuff that is readily apparent just by looking at a map (like thinking the straight of gibralter is an important location).

Damn, I did not want the ports to be bomb. I bet you are tried of me changing my mind. This is the last time. Ville de Bruit, Ville d'Espoir, and Villi de la Vie will the be the three cities. I got my triangle, so I’m happy as four year old in a candy shop.

No offense, but a port doesnt need a beach landing to be taken. This isnt exactly WWII now....

If its not too late, I'd like to join the NG.

Also, I feel a bit late so.... I thought it will be a good idea to be accepted before I post force information etc.
