I was in a halo rp a while back but it sucked.

This would be a true halo RP,maybe an alternate history one.

The setting would be 40 years before the games. the human-covenant war started in 2525 and halo took place in 2552.

you can be a member of the UNSC, The covenant, or human rebels,. I will RP the UNSC.
you can be captians,generals of soilders or even civilians that are fearing for their lives.


UNSC

I don't have to, my whole nation is the UNSC, and I'm about to start a Holy war with a Covenant player anyway.

But if that doesn't work out, then I'll join.

I'd like to be an Officer of Marines. Particularly a Battalion Commander. And if this doesn't hurt the RP, i'd like the ability to play as random characters in my Battalion, but my main character be the Lieutenant Colonel in charge. Is that ok?

Wanderjar

1010102
19-06-2006, 23:31
a mechanized has 12 60 warthogs and each warthogs needs 3 people thats 180 plus the people who repair and the command that puts it at around 240-250 people.

a mechanized has 12 60 warthogs and each warthogs needs 3 people thats 180 plus the people who repair and the command that puts it at around 240-250 people.

A battalion is 3-4 companies, a company is 3-4 plattoons. That means we're talking anywhere between 108-192 Warthogs, with crews and logistics personnel. That means between 324-768 men. JUST to crew the warthogs. It may be slightly different for the UNSCMC, but that's about the way it works in RL Battalion levels are for when the real war kicks off. You houldn't NEED more than a company of Marnes/ODSTs for ANY operation against rebels.

On that note, the covies sit and wait.
1010102
20-06-2006, 17:02
ok right now we're waiting for Wanderjar to reply to my attack on his rebel frigate.
Liberated New Ireland

Right, my rebel force is going to be a wing of frigates:
The Nile
The Pharoah
The Alexandria
The Anubis


They each have:
1 MAC gun
20 Archer Pods
1 Shiva Warhead
1 Longsword Wing of 6 fighters
2 Pelicans

And a contigent of 250 militiamen.

That doesn't seem very fair to him, since you get to control all the fun species.
