OOC: Small Unit Operations Interest Thread

Orbath

Basically, many of the RPs I've been involved in are large scale.
Hundreds or thousands of soldiers going at it. Also, I've been playing too much Call of Duty 4 (Excellent game by the way). I want to do an RP on a smaller scale, maybe special force type. If your interested, let me know and we can come up with some scenarios. This isn't restricted to just one person, I'm asking the masses.

I've considered a few rules which are completely open to change. Consider them guidelines.

- Units must be small, as in a fireteam, section or possibly platoon. I'm thinking anywhere from 4 to 20ish troops. If its a larger amount, it could be broken down into different units in the same area just completing different objectives.

- Limited amount of vehicles, preferably none. A HMMWV, truck or IFV/APC is ok but I'm not looking for tanks.

-Aircraft are also limited. Maybe have the ability to call in for air support, a chopper or warthog or something.

I'm listing any suggestion for scenarios

Operation Finder Keepers

Information has come in that a cargo ship off the coast of (Random Nation) contains stolen military intelligence on (Other Random Nation). Your mission is to secure the cargo ship, recover the information and get out of there before (Random Nation) notices.

The ship is crewed by a group of terrorists from (Another Random Nation).

You will be inserted via Black-Hawk.

Operation Sunset

You are invading (Random Nation). A unit of (Random Nation's soldiers has captured and tortured one of your nations officers in order to gain information on your nations next move. They have gathered that a massive air attack is coming and has moved anti air assets into the area. Your mission is to rescue the officer and disable the radar site on the base.

Hmmm. I would be interested. I could do with some Rping practise.

I might be interested, but some things just really bother me about small-unit games, like the tendency to embody super-characters of godlike status. I'd rather not play with every character a Japanese-Italian American with a troubled past and who was raised by warrior monks in the Rockies, is known only as Flash for his super-accurate sniper skills...well, you get the idea.

Tom Clancy isn't my thing. I tend to follow the Fight Club Rule of Existence instead.

So this is a squad-based thing, right?
Agrandov
20-11-2007, 14:33
Definitely interested.

Although my government is entirely incapable of organising such operations, there are numerous cells within the country that could.

For example, where fodder or targets are required there are a few prolific crime families that would be suitable.

As for a special forces team, the mercenary company Stalwart PMC produces some of the finest for-hire soldiers in the world.

I have to agree with the super power thing, It really isn't fun when everyone refuses to die. Yeah, it might be their favorite or main character but they have to die sometime.

Anyways, I forgot to add, can you post a roster and either chose one of my missions or come up with your own. After we decide on some missions we can create IC threads and maps if we need them.
Diggledom
20-11-2007, 16:31
Hmmm, any kind of mission?

The cargo ship looks like it could be fun? I am up for that if you want?

Though since my nation is based almost entirely around soviet weapons and equipment I may have to supply my own ride.

I'll definitely will take part in this. I rather enjoy these smaller scale RP's, and seeing as how this is somewhat of my nations specialty, I can't very well just turn this away.

I'd be interested in this kind of thing. I'm tired of everybody seeming to think it isn't a real conflict unless there's millions of soldiers and literally trillions of dollars in military hardware involved.

Most wars IRL are not like that. If it's the Third World War, perhaps, but most would be much more low-key.
Alfegos
20-11-2007, 17:44
I like small-scale RPs to a degree, so count me in. I will be providing operatives in the form of "Project Gaea"... I really need to introduce these guys sometime.

An idea for a scenario:

Operation Tonic Water
A mole by the name of [Insert here] who is giving information to the [random nation] government needs to be captured, so that the government can find what has been leaked.
[Your team] has been called to carry out this mission in [You nation's] capital city.

(I like this one, as you have civilians as well who you can't kill or injure, yet can raise the alarm, the police who may think you are enemies, and you can't call in for airstrikes. Your squad will be on its own...)
Roseberg
20-11-2007, 17:57
Here's a mission idea.

Raid on The Refinery:

Recently, a small Third World state has been giving you a lot of trouble, and it has been decided they need to be taught a lesson. An intense fireworks display should do the trick. A large oil refinery is situated an incredibly short distance from the ocean coast. You are to infiltrate undetected, rig the critical facilities with high explosives, and exfiltrate, undetected.

Misc. Facts:

From the shoreline out to perhaps a mile the ocean waters depth is at most ten feet.

Agrandov
20-11-2007, 21:52
I'm not entirely sure how this is going to work.

Are we each sending a team into a single operation?
Are we sending teams into one operation each, and these are loosely related?
Are we each contributing one person to some sort of multinational task force?

Most of the scenarios suggested so far would only really work in an Attackers vs Defenders situation, where one person is the small team and the other is the mass of enemies. So, this would have to be an extraordinarily large team made up of smaller teams from each of us, or it's a normal-ish team with one member from each participant.

- Units must be small, as in a fireteam, section or possibly platoon. I'm thinking anywhere from 4 to 20ish troops. If its a larger amount, it could be broken down into different units in the same area just completing different objectives.

This is the idea I like, although we'd have to curb the number of teams running around to stop it getting ridiculous. Not sure if we'd split ourselves into two "sides" (attackers and defenders) or what.
Roseberg
20-11-2007, 22:04
I suspect it'll essentially work out with two people selected for a mission, one playing the small unit on the attack, and the second person operating the enemy. Can't be sure, though.

Hmmm, the rainbow six idea could work. Each nation providing a single operative or at most 2/3? I would be interested in seeing how that turned out.

Mission Specs (http://forums.jolt.co.uk/showthread.php?p=13231710#post13231710)

[Random Nation] has been attacked by terrorist from [Random Nation] and we have to cut off ties with government and terrorist cells, obtain knowledge, and kill some of the terrorist cells when forgotten about.

Those terrorist cells would happen to be the Hawks, they are Spec ops but they are doing a terrorist type job, you can make a few characters and then we will try to kill the Hawks.

Hmmm, the rainbow six idea could work. Each nation providing a single operative or at most 2/3? I would be interested in seeing how that turned out.

They get killed, often.

Normally as soon as a full division gets deployed to swat them with napalm.

I've managed a few good deep insertion small unit and a couple of single unit strike RPs.

I'd suggest 10 troops or a squad/section per player -maybe a platoon each- if planning anything other than spying and survival scenarios.

And unlike the 'micro' "one player = one character" RPs, you get to play around with your own unit's tactics rather than simply adapting, spamming, and BSing through battles.

Recommended insertions:
Helicopter
Submarine
Paracute/glider
"Under the rug/wire"

I would also recommend using a vehicle if practical, never leg it unless you have to in order to finish the job or if hopping into a car would compromise your chances of success.

Sorry for not be clearer. Not all of us would have to be involved in the same mission and the missions don't have to connected. That doesn't mean we can't have missions with squads from 2 or 3 nations but we can also have missions with only one. So I guess just chose a mission you want to be involved in and post a roster. Also, I won't be able to play the bad guys all the time and so I will need people willing to play as the bad guy sometimes. This doesn't mean you can't also be the good guys, except in that particular RP. As soon as enough people sign up, we can create IC threads.

21-11-2007, 10:23
I'd be perfectly willing to have people try and do secret squirrel operations in my country. For a little background my nation raises every child to live and breath small unit operations, with a vast knowledge on many weapon systems.

We aren't a Mercenary State for nothing.

But then again, we are a Mercenary State, and we do take on other peoples wars. So it should be really easy to RP my nation on either side of any conflict we come up with.

My regular marine/airborne/speical forces platoons or equivalents are 25 men. Is that acceptable?
Orbath
21-11-2007, 20:16
Yes, depending on the operation.

I'd like to be the good guys in the Raid on the Refinery.

Alpha Section (6 Troops)

1 Commander
1 M-4 Carbine, MP-5 slung on back.

Rifleman
1 M-4 Carbine

Demolitions -
1 MP-5, 4 Blocks of C-4, 1 Claymore Mine

Light Machine Gunner
1 M-249 Machine Gun

Section Markman
1 M-16A2 Marksman Variant

Each soldier also carries one M-9 pistol, 3 Frag grenades, 2 Flashbangs, 1 smoke grenade, a combat knife, an infa-red marker and night vision goggles.

I'd also like to play the bad guys in my cargo ship operation.

40 Terrorists armed with AK-47s, RPG-7s and grenades. Some have heavy machine guns and booby traps are expected.

21-11-2007, 22:46
Here's one of my ideas, I was doing this with another country but the thread died. I'm going to replace the "insert here"s with the actual countries that participated.

The Grand World Order has decided to use the religious uprising in Jayate to gain more territory and resources. Of course, Imperialism is heavily frowned upon. Therefore, GRIFFITH-II has authorized the deployment of an elite Special Tactics Force element to Jayate to perform assasinations on political and religious targets to begin a civil war, thus providing a reasonable excuse for invasion.

This never happened, as I said, cause nobody else responded and the thread died.

21-11-2007, 23:42

Oh yes, I forgot to list my weapons and whatnot. Note that the S.T.F. is a force of clones from the worst psychopaths and serial killers the GWO has ever arrested, except for the one man who oversees it (Heinrich Slaag, although the S.T.F. is considered the Grand Commander's Private Army). Any sort of special operations are USUALLY carried out by Elements of S.T.F. members. An element is equivalent to 7 men. One Sergeant, two Corporals, and four Privates. Basic S.T.F. loadouts listed below:

S.T.F. Rifleman:
-MI-8 Carbine
-MI-P57 Pistol
-5 Fragmentation Grenades
-2 Phosphorus Grenades
-3 Smokescreen Grenades
-Federation Melee Chainsaw (Light, medium, or heavy. Sometimes replaced with more silent melee weapons such as sabres or spiked clubs)

S.T.F. Marksman:
-EASR Sniper Rifle
-MI-P57 Pistol
-5 Fragmentation Grenades
-2 Phosphorus Grenades
-Ghille covering added to uniform
-Federation Sabre

S.T.F. CQC Specialist:
-FSIAAS Automatic Shotgun (Or Federation Edition P-90 if silence is needed)
-MI-P57 Pistol
-5 Fragmentation Grenades
-2 Tear Gas Grenades
-3 Flashbangs
-Federation Heavy Chainsaw (Or, if silence is needed, Sabre/spiked club)

I didn't list the Grand Guardian role, cause they only serve as GRIFFITH-II's bodyguards. Feel free to ask any questions.

I think I have another idea for an operation.

[Insert country or terror organization] has taken control of our primary nuclear power and missile facility in [enter region here]. Your team has been sent to eliminate all hostiles, halt any hijackings, and rescue the surviving staff. As we don't know what the hostile force's intentions are, we must hurry, as it is possible that they're launching missiles at our cities or another state, causing the victim to blame us.

Sending a Slims class fast cargo ship to run a multi-national blockade and pick up guns in TPF and such and move them en-masse to TKT to avoid their destruction via peace treaty of whatchamajiggets.Said 'raid' would also involve picking up all decommissioed and damaged ships to be officially 'scuttled', and secretly pirate them into service.
Attempt to pick up bounties on the heads of the Royu, Maldorian, and TWSP leaders.
.
Infiltrate myself for the lulz.
.
Make another stab at killing Griffencrest. (this used to be #1 on my list for quite some time until I learned how to stop worrying and love the bomb)
Host and participate in some excentric competition that makes no real sense.
(These RPs show up from time to time)
RP some huge biological outbrake that starts killing (all) human(oid) race(s), blubs included.

Sounds cool... i'm in

:sniper:

Since you appear to be a newbie - shown by the fact that you have made 1 post and haven't grasped the fact that smilies don't make an impression here - I'll have to ask you, have you read the stickies - all and every single bit of them - at the top of the forum page?

You should alway's read the forum's stickies before posting in it for the first time.

If you haven't, you'll have no idea of what IC is, or roleplay, make crappy posts, and generally be called a n00b and ignored completely.

On a side note, I have some good, realistic, ideas about squad based missions. This also makes me realize I'm probably your best resource for such scenarios....

Scenario: Your squad is in a three vehicle convoy, patrolling the passive aggressive streets of [wherever]. Suddenly an explosion rocks the area and the middle truck of the convoy is hit with an IED. There are casualties, but it's not clear how many.

Scenario: A High Value Target (HVT) has been spotted in a nearby building, assault the building, and take the HVT alive. He may or may not have others in the house, and he may or may not put up a fight.

Scenario: Your Forward Operating Base (FOB) has received enemy fire from a nearby building. So far all the force that has been displayed is assault rifles.

Scenario: A large assault (Battalion sized) is being done on a hostile city. Your squad just received a call from another nearby squad requesting support. They are taking heavy fire from belt fed weapons and RPG's. They have two KIA, three critically wounded, and the rest have been injured in some way.

That's four scenarios, and I have a million more. Like I say, I'm probably your most valuable asset in this type of RP.

Here's a something I cooked up.

Scenario:
Spy Satalites and Intelligence agencies report that a terrorist cell operating within a hostile 3rd world country not to far from your own has siezed a short range nuclear ballistic missile. Your orders are to infiltrate a small missile silo in which the missile is being held, rig it to blow, and reach an extraction point in a nearby town. Under no circumstances must the missile be allowed to launch.

It does sound like you have numerous ideas. The problem is I can't RP the ''bad guy'' for everyone so its good that some nations signed up as the opfor. I kinda lose track of what everyone has posted so Is ok if you pick a scenario and go ahead and post an IC thread. I'll RP the bad guys in some missions of course others that are willing can do the others of their choosing.

I could give plenty of 'HVTs' for everyone to track down.
Short list:

'Grant':
BIO:
A ringleader of a terrorist organization that has amassed over 50 thermonuclear missiles over the past year due to an outside benifactor.

Task:
Capture him, figure out his organization structure, and prevent those nukes from being launched in retaliation (or as a bargaining chip for his quick and speedy release).

Local:
He tends to frequent Bosco's Bar and Grill in Kohrnate Tribes, has been seen on the move around a Maldorian base (target in the open). His cell has been known to operate out of TWSP, TPF, TKT, and PROHT, among others.

Mendez:
BIO:
Top CEO of an 'evil mercenary corporation known to sponsor terrorists'.
Though ironicly, these guys hate Grant.
They guy lost both his legs in a series of very unfortunate envents.
Considered insane and in possession of vast quantities of WMD.

Task:
Take him out. Dead or Alive.

Local:
High security mansion on New Roanoke Island, which itself is usually a military-only installaton with trigger-happy border gaurds.

Griffencrest (not my guy, but he's always fun to go after)
BIO:
Officially dead
Resurfaced on the media recently, apparently we were wrong...
Like Mendez, except he's older and can still walk.

Task:
Same

Local:
Usually either Paradise City in Blackhelm Confederacy or in his uber-armored 'panic room' style bunker on a remote island. Oh, and he has a private army plus enough allies with power to make the anybody cringe and think twice.


Endnote: Before you all decide to go manhunting these guys with nothing but a shovel and a broken beer bottle...*
If you go after any of these guys, you better get close enough that they can't fry you without fragging themselves, that and maintaining stealth.

Because if your lil unit gets exposed in the open, you'll be quickly reminded that all the above have their own private air forces, artillery units, and an army that outnumbers you "a whole lot to one".

You'll also need to TG Blackhelm Confederacy before going after Griffy boy unannounced.

And no Antigr, going after my guys would most likely resault in a breech of ADAN charter...
Sry about spelling and grammar, it around mifnight...

So this'll be the IC hub?

*L-o-n-g story behind that...

I have no problem laying host to any of the scenarios I brought forth. I actually want to host the one with the convoy though....

Whenever I find someone who is willing to play as the convoy in my scenario, or play whatever when they want me to be the bad guy.

Whenever you want. I'm having trouble keeping track of peoples wants so I'm letting you go ahead and post your own IC thread.

NOF, I've actually been looking for a chance to try out some new vehicles. I'd be glad to be the convoy.

Unfortunately, due to lack of time, I'm gonna have to pull out. Happy killing.
