I have been working on this idea for a while and now I'm going to start it up. Here's the premise.


Shenyang is currently dealing with the single worst outbreak of Zombie Infection Virus (ZIV-01) in history. A full sixth of Shenyang's considerable landmass is locked down by a shaky quarantine, and there are an estimated 5 million infectees within said zone. This situation has been on going for nearly 6 months, and there is no light at the end of the tunnel yet.

In hopes of finding such an avenue, the Shenyangi government has put out an open request to the world community. They want the best counter-zombie combatants to come to Shenyang and assist in neutralizing this threat. If the special forces have never dealt with something like this, then they frankly have no business showing up.


I do have some basic things to say before anyone posts a character:

1. This is going to be a serious RP, no offense to others who have done mt undead RPs recently, but this RP is going to be a lot more serious and a lot darker. There won't be too many one-liners being thrown around.
2. I'll accept minorly super-human characters, as in, slightly better than a normal human. I won't allow psychics, vampires, werewolves, ghosts, super-heroes, aliens, robots,
and anything that is living and capable of speech that isn't human.
3. This will be an MT (2007-2017) RP, so no starships, plasma weapons, energy swords, shielding, etc.
4. NO SUPER-WEAPONS.
5. Keep profanity in check. I'll accept an occasional term, but I use euphamisms (i.e. Frak) to convey the idea if its really hardcore. I'll let you know if language is unacceptable, but lets all try to keep this pretty clean.
6. This thread will have a very dark, almost depressing atmosphere from my characters, so please, don't send people who are overly enthusiastic, prone to making 'go-get-em' comments, or simply don't have the common sense to know what would be tactful in a given situation.
7. I have ultimate go or no-go control, if I say no, then you get 1 chance to appeal your case on a given issue, otherwise, I mean no.
8. Please, send a maximum of 3 characters, preferrably only 1 character, I will not accept armies, and 3 characters starts to become most people's main character cut-off, after that, they start to lose any individual identity.

The first mission thread will be posted around December 27th, 2007. I will notify people when I intend to start, that way everyone has been warned that the chaos will be commencing.

Thank you.

Being right door, I'd be in trouble if I didn't respond. Without further ado, here's my character who will be familiar to some other possible participants:

Name: Victor Kirk
Age: 42
Height: 6'2"
Weight: 200 lbs
Hair: Short, dark brown, graying at the temples
Eyes: Slate gray
Weaponry: Armed with a DM-32C carbine and a Dominion Service Pistol (.40cal) as well as a trench spike that his great grandfather used in one of the Great Wars long ago
Rank: Sergeant, Dominion Civil Authority
Bio: A member of Section 13, a Dominion Intelligence branch within the Civil Authority, he is a survivor of the 'z' outbreak within First City. He was transferred to Section 13 immediately after the outbreak to explore other potential supernatural threats and was in charge of the 'Unexplainable Cases' department before being sent to the TBCS to recieve further training and experience with which to benefit the preservation of order in the Dominion. Has had previous combat experience with vampires. After his term in the TBCS, he was recalled to the Dominion where he gratefully went back to patrolman duty.

Oh, and with your permission Shen, I'd also like to be able to post the occasional event on our shared border. It'd be locked down with a long stretch of military equipment and personnel at the ready. It'll really be as a reflection of how well the quarantine is working/ how desperate things are. I'll also probably for 'realism's' sake call a meeting of the Board to debate whether or not to go in.

Alright, you're approved RS.

bump agn

Sounds good!

Name: Captain Roger McKenzie
Age: 40
Height: 5’8”
Weight: 180 lbs
Hair: Short, Brown
Eyes: Grey
Weaponry: ArmTech L99A2 Assault Rifle w/UGL, Brent 9mm Hi-Power Pistol, Salcon Beaching Shotgun

Name: Sergeant Garry ‘Gaz’ Collins
Age: 32
Height: 6'1"
Weight: 200 lbs
Hair: Short, Brown
Eyes: Brown
Weaponry: ArmTech L06 Designated Marksman Rifle, Brent 9mm Hi-Power Pistol, Salcon Beaching Shotgun.

Bio: Both men are part of the Foreign Advisory Section Action Teams (FAS-AT) of Military Intelligence Section 22. MI22 deals with the Supernatural and they have a wide range of experience with most kinds of ‘Monsters’ around the Globe, thanks mainly to the FAS-AT teams who strive to be on the front line activity gathering intelligence. MI22 actively cooperates with Foreign Governments with the hope of gaining Intelligence on the threat before it reaches Wintrees’ own boarders. Historically the system works well, with FAS-AT teams bringing valuable experience to the party. Team members tend to be Special Forces Operators who transfer into MI22.

Alright, they're both approved.

Kal Elpoon
Rank: Sergeant First Class
Age: 36
Height: 6'3
Weight: 235lbs
Armarments: M-4 Rifle, Desert Eagle sidearm

Sergeant First Class Kal Elpoon is a member of Droskianishks Sector-3 Special Tactics and Assault Squad (Sptas). He is considered one of Droskianishks finest after he witnessed his entire squad eliminated by rogue agents in an ambush.

Can a kid living in Shenyang be in this?

Aaron Zheng
Age: 16
Hair: Black and decently long
Eyes: Brown
Height: 6'0
Weight: 160
Armarments: AK-47 with a wooden baseball bat

Info: Coming after approval, He's a good shot and very mentally and physically able though.

I'll submit two people from my fringe group, the July Loyalists, who have had zombie combat experience following the catastrophic bombardment of Atopiana. They are terrorsists and wanted by the Imperial government, so this would be a good way to escape from the Judges for the time being.

Name: Major Herman Yuklig
Age: 36
Height: 6’2”
Weight: 225 lbs
Hair: Short, Black
Eyes: Green
Weaponry: AK-101, pistol, 6 HE grenades, knife

Bio: An SS veteran, Herman staunchly opposes the Empire of the Wolf. He is a dedicated National Socialist and hates Jews, but hates zombies more, especially if they are Jewish zombies.

Name: Captain Lidiya Servchenko
Age: 24
Height: 5'2"
Weight: 180 lbs
Hair: shoulder-length, grey
Eyes: Brown
Weaponry: RPK, pistol, knife

Bio: Lidiya was kidnapped from her homeland shortly after she was born and was raised in the Foreign Work Brigades. Upon turning 16, she was allowed to join the SS and served with distinction in 5th SS Panzer "Zionbane" as a mechanised infantry gunner. Her only regret is that ammunition runs out eventually.

I'm going to submit a police unit from the dreaded Imperial ZVO to hunt down the terrorists from the July Loyalists... and defend themselves from zombies.

Name: Head of Internal Security, Dzevat Memedelija
Age: 57
Height: 5'10"
Weight: 168 lbs
Hair: Grey, balding, unkempt.
Eyes: Brown.
Equipment: Tokarev 9mm and five 8-round magazines; police issue extendable truncheon; Swiss Army knife (the one with the funny device for extracting stones from hooves); bulletproof vest; CS spray; radio; warrant card; plastic cuffs.

Biography: Dzevat rose to prominence in the ZVO following a terror attack on ZVO HQ which killed the majority of the senior officers. As the most experienced and oldest ZVO operative left, this depressive, alcoholic, apathetic, disgruntled, divorced and childless (both daughters were killed in the One Day War when they became infected with a weaponised super-virus) man was fast-tracked to the top. He has since become obsessed with getting "back out into the field" despite his distaste for fieldwork and preference for paperwork. In all likelihood, he has a subconcious death wish...

Name: ZVO Captain Boris Milosevic
Age: 25
Height: 6’4”
Weight: 280 lbs (20 stone!)
Hair: Short, blond
Eyes: Blue
Equipment: AK-108 with underslung grenade launcher, six 30 round magazines and four CS grenades, two frag and two white phosphorous; Tokarev 9mm and five 8-round magazines; police issue extendable truncheon; bulletproof vest; CS spray; radio; warrant card; plastic cuffs.

Bio: Captain Milosevic is an up-and-coming new recruit to the ZVO. At the age of 21, after just six months, he personally broke the back of a dissident pro-libertarian network following prolonged special interrogation of several suspects. Following this success he has been rapidly promoted and is aiming, or so the ZVO's internal security unit reports, to succeed Memedelija. He is currently engaged and aims to end this mission with yet another success.

Name: ZVO Dog Handler Viktoriya Januchek
Age: 32
Height: 5’1”
Weight: 134 lbs (11 stone)
Hair: Bob-cut, black.
Eyes: Grey, short sight (wears glasses).
Equipment: Milo, attack-suppression canine; AK-108 with four 30 round magazines; Tokarev 9mm and five 8-round magazines; police issue extendable truncheon; bulletproof vest; CS spray; radio; warrant card; plastic cuffs.

Bio: Januchek is the team's tracker, using Milo's ability to scent their quarry and, if necessary, to aid in subduing them. She is a career policewoman and takes great pride in "protecting the citizens from themselves". Her main love is the ZVO, followed closely by Milo. She is unmarried, but has had a series of failed relationships both in and out of the force. In temperament she closely resembles Memedelija, although she is less prone to black depression. Rumours abound within the ZVO that she is engaged in a relationship with the Old Man, Memedelija, but both deny the rumours.

NOTE: The unit travels in a police Ural-4320, which contains spare ammunition, food, sleeping kit, other such survival equipment, and a metal cage for holding prisoners. It has a half-full tank and enough fuel in jerry cans for 500km of driving.

To Droskianishk: approved, welcome to the Alfa Teams.

To Dragonicale: I'd prefer if it weren't one of my civilians, as I would have no way of extracting them from a mission area initially, and they wouldn't have the training of the military and police units. My citizens are tough, but this situation is more than a little beyond the average Shenyangi's endurance. However, if you can make a really good case for him, I'm willing to give it a shot. Shoot me a TG on NS with some basic info, and a general idea of how he'd act and I'll review it.


To Skgorria: accepted, just don't expect my people to all too open, Shenyang has a long standing dislike for Nazis and Neo-Nazis, and a notable percentage of Jews within the military. We don't hunt them, but we certainly don't make things easy for them either. That, and we're violently anti-terrorist, coming to Shenyang might actually be as bad, or worse than being caught by the authorities. We do background checks on all incoming personnel, so we'll know about their affiliations. You can make your decision on that for yourself, if you decide to come despite the danger, then you're accepted.

To Atopiana: Triple approved, but the vehicle would be next to useless. The team is going to be airlifted into combat zones, which are often as far as 1000 miles away, and the dropships can't handle anything larger than a Fast Attack Vehicle. Also, the forward base where the team will be operating from will be resupplied via air drops and ground convoys, so bringing a vehicle full of ammo is unnecessary. A couple crates, sure, but as much as 8500+ lbs, that's more than a little excessive for a well supplied base. As a result, I can't approve the Ural.

Name:Kash Hassan
Age: 25
Height: 6'2"
Weight: 230 lbs
Hair: Dirty Blonde, short, parted
Eyes: light blue
Weaponry: SOL AK-47, Colt 45, Zealot warblade:

Bio: http://www.theodoresworld.net/pics/0507/Nahr_al_Bared_Palestinian_terrorist_camp.jpg

Recently put into the ranks of the NC military after the civil war, he is a Holy traveling warrior.

To Skgorria: accepted, just don't expect my people to all too open, Shenyang has a long standing dislike for Nazis and Neo-Nazis, and a notable percentage of Jews within the military.

You can make your decision on that for yourself, if you decide to come despite the danger, then you're accepted.

That's fine by me, it's your RP after all. They'll most probably be hoping to strike some deal with the authorities in return for not being apprehended and temporary asylum, after all Nazis and the remenants of the Pact of Iron are vigorously pursued and eliminated in the Empire of the Wolf. Danger is accepted, I am fully onboard. Do you mind if I flesh their bios and kit out a little bit - nothing too extensives like LOL SUPALAZER, just stuff like "knife" and a little bit more background?

Further Unit Operations are currently classified beyond Top Secret. However I can also announce this unit has been involved in training further units.

OOC:

Skgorria, I'm sorry, but I gave it some serious thought, and I can't justify my government collaborating with terrorists in this situation. It's completely against the morals that I've upheld for my nation since I started back in '04. As a result, for political, moral, legal, and technical reasons, I have to rescind the approval for your characters. You're free to send characters that aren't terrorists, but I can't allow any terrorist free-range with Shenyangi technology, which is what this unit gets.

Vetaka, while I appreciate the offer of sending 6 soldiers, I have to ask you to send a maximum of 3, for RP purposes I need to limit everyone to 3 characters. You can choose whichever 3 you want to send, they're all fine by me, its just the number that's an issue.

To NC: welcome to the Alfa Teams.

No probs there mate, your RP your rules. Instead I'll send an Imperial Guard unit

Name: Captain Igor Petersen
Age: 31
Height: 6’2”
Weight: 225 lbs
Hair: Short, Black
Eyes: Green
Weaponry: AK-101, pistol, 6 HE grenades, large machete, survival kit (utility tool, matches, rope, mirrors, fishing hooks, water purification tablets, that sort of thing), helmet, gas mask, body armour, lightweight hazmat suit, radio

Bio: Captain Petersen, like many other officers in the Imperial military, is a veteran of the days of the Pact of Iron, and one of the few regular Army officers to make it into the Imperial Guard. He has seen zombie combat experience during the aftermath of the One-Day war, when the rememnants of his batallion were called upon to isolate and destroy an Atopian town that had been affected by weaponised viruses. Petersen displays considerable drive and determination, as an ex-Army officer needs it to make it into the Guard.

Name: PFC Sygiria Gorobets
Age: 20
Height: 5’9”
Weight: 205 lbs
Hair: Short, brown
Eyes: Green
Weaponry: PK machine gun, pistol, 6 HE grenades, large machete, survival kit (utility tool, matches, rope, mirrors, fishing hooks, water purification tablets, that sort of thing), helmet, gas mask, body armour, lightweight hazmat suit, radio

Bio: Sygiria Gorobets was an enthusiastic fascist when she was growing up, and with the abrupt end of the Pact of Iron she drifted around the Empire, going from job to job, until eventually she ended up enlisting in the Imperial Army. She demonstrated considerable aptitude during basic training and was earmarked for the Guard, a position she secured for herself after particpating in a joint operation with a ZVO assault team and her infantry unit against a July Loyalist stronghold in which she killed 3 enemy troopers and captured the commander. Sygiria is fairly new to the Guard, and will be especially nervous as this is her first operational posting as a Guardswoman.

Thank you Skgorria, you're approved, again. :) couldn't resist using a smilie eventually.

OCC: se when do we get this party started?

Thank you Skgorria, you're approved, again. :) couldn't resist using a smilie eventually.

Heh, smilies *have* to be used at some point. I haven't done a character-based combat RP since...gawd, probably an FT one I did about this time last year. This should be fun!

I'm going to be posting the first mission on or around December 27th. I have a few last minute details to hammer out, then it'll be going up. I decided that I ought to put up the recruitment thread about a week early, not expecting such a response, especially so quickly.

I chose the 27th so that we're not suddenly absent for a day by Christmas.

OCC:dam, that's still far away.

BUMP. Any more takers?

could I air drop my own force and set up a small out post that your team could use rest at ,restock ammo and get hot food

OCC:idk about that, you might try to kill my char

Imperial Isa, I'm gonna have to say no. It would be too hazardous for your forces, and Shenyangi support is being stretched very thin by this incident. We wouldn't be able to make any attempts to assist if something went wrong, and with 5 million+ undead within the quarantine zone, something invariably will go wrong. Also, the unit will be changing AO from mission to mission, so the team won't be in an area for more than a few days. If you want to send a few soldiers, I can accommedate that. I can't allow you to drop an autonomous unit.

not really i be RPing with my Cadia Terror people and they live parasite eve 1 and 2 like nation with Neo-Mitochondrial Creatures running about in whats call the Wild

EDIT
and if i did use my main what makes you think i would not back my force with air power and back up

That doesn't change the fact that the Alfa Teams are only going to be in any one region of the quarantine zone for, at most, 3 days. Also, this isn't going to be a single thread, but rather a series of threads, one for each mission, to keep the page counts down. The quarantine zone is roughly the size of the US east coast (from Florida to Maine). As a result, the unit will be called to missions al over the zone, making any fixed, or even mobile base a liability.

They won't have 'planned' missions, they're an emergency response unit. A 'resupply base' would need to be mobile, and capable of covering hundreds of miles, almost daily, at the drop of a hat. Practically, its just not pheasible to expect that to work, both IC or OOC.

how about i run the base they get called from then i could rp noncombat people they can talk to before a mission and after one

i would just suggest airdrops.

I'd like to sign up. I'd like to deploy a 3-man team from the GWO's elite Special Tactics Force.

The specific division of the S.T.F. that they're in is the Counter-Neurological Overriding Infections Unit. While all GWO Troops are trained to fight Neurological Overrides, this team is trained mainly for that instead of fighting normal humans. This is because of the fact that during the GWO's foundings, a creature knwon as the Grup took over the neurological systems of millions. Entire cities were being overrun by the 1-foot long insect-like creatures, which were radioactive mixtures between Neurosuperworms and Leeches. They would suck the eyeballs from the sockets, enter the skull, eat the brain, attach themselves to the spinal cord, and then lay thousands of eggs inside the victim. The larvae would then recieve about a month's worth of nutrients from the blood for their maturing stage outside of the host's body, in which they wouldn't be able to take over a nervous system.

Team mates:

Sergeant FC-IEU98

Weapon of choice (Primary): FSIAAS Automatic Assault Shotgun
Weapon of choice (Secondary): Colt Python Magnum Revolver, GWO-Edition
Height: 6'2"
Weight: 210 pounds
Biography: FC-IOU98 is a typical Special Tactics Force clone soldier. Based off of the common Michael Hatfield subject, he is clinically insane (As are all clone soldiers in the GWO) and fears hardly anything. Excellent shot, even with an automatic shotgun.

Corporal FC-IEU73

Weapon of choice (Primary): EASR-L150 50. Caliber Sniper Rifle
Weapon of choice (Secondary): MI-P57 Magnum Edition
Height: 6'2"
Weight: 200 pounds
Biography: Genetically exact to the Sergeant, but lighter by ten pounds. Trained in advanced marksmanship, U73 has a rock-steady aim. Has a slight addiction to Raufoss Explosive Rounds, and has been court-marshalled once for shooting civilians with them, also due to his addiction.

Corporal FC-IEU74

Weapon of choice (Primary): FHASAW 45. Caliber Squad Automatic Weapon
Weapon of choice (Secondary): MI-P57 Magnum Edition
Height: 5'10"
Weight: 195 pounds
Biography: Cloned from a GWO Executioner gone psychopath. His clone subject was killing people with the Capital Punishment Arsenal behind the government's back, with 30 confirmed kills. Obviously, he is the main machine gunner of the team.

I've already stated in the first post that I won't accept full-scale military forces, and what you're suggesting is roughly equivalent to an under-forced USMC Marine Expeditionary Unit. For a character RP that's completely impractical.

I've already stated that I'll accept a maximum of 3 characters per participant, and I'm not going to change that limit.

Oh, I need to fix that I suppose. Watch the profile post for member removal.

Thank you, and I. ISA, I'm not going to approve a forward base, period. It wouldn't fit with the overall idea of the thread, the base the Alfa Teams are based out of is already a forward base, and it wouldn't be practical. I've already stated the constraints on units, so my decision stands.

no you missed the point now i said can i run it and rp the noncombat people, the one who run it and keep in touch with the units that go into the field

no you missed the point now i said can i run it and rp the noncombat people, the one who run it and keep in touch with the units that go into the field

He made his point, i dont think you can change it, i like it the way it is.

And you continue to miss the point I'm making. I know this sounds selfish and childish,

but no means no. I'm in charge of the thread and 2 of the 8 rules I posted state:

there will be a cap of 3 characters for any participant,
and that I will not accept any full scale military intervention.

Your base would require a full scale military deployment to support, and would be largely useless unless its comprised of several hundred helicopters, or a flying base like the something stolen from Ace Combat. Both are impractical, and completely contrary to the basic idea of the RP, especially since this base would either be a static target under constant attack, or a giant flying undead magnet moving from point to point dragging a mob behind it.

So, NO, you cannot airdrop a unit into the quarantine zone.

If you can send 1-3 soldiers as part of the normal unit, then that's fine, but otherwise, I've got to say no.

GWO, you're approved, sorry you had to come into the middle of this.

He made his point, i dont think you can change it, i like it the way it is.

no he did not as i was talking about his base that he said

how about i run the base they get called from then i could rp noncombat people they can talk to before a mission and after one

oh the airdrop thing, i meant when we need supply, airdrop ammo and exc.

GWO, you're approved, sorry you had to come into the middle of this.

No prob. Also, late addition to the weaponry, but I forgot to add something. If it's ok, can my troops carry the GWO-produced Heavy Class Combat Chainsaw? It's essentially a triple bladed UAC chainsaw.

The Alfa Teams are going to be either carrying in their ammo, or procuring it on-site. Aerial replenishment would be over-tax my stressed supply lines. I'm trying to create an overall stressed, semi-realistic scenario, not an idyllic zombie hunt.

I've got to go for the night, so I. ISA, if you want to send a few soldiers or cops, then by all means, but I won't authorize anything more.

On a supply note. The unit's base will recieve any supply drops or deliveries, allowing the various units to be resupplied by their own home nations, however these shipments would have to come from the nation itself, or an unrelated military unit in the region, which is not participating in the RP.

so i can send a army doctor and army coms Tech (radio and so on) Station at Your forward base you said

That should be fine, as long as the numbers stay low enough I don't have a problem with that.

Bio: Ryan Getzlaf was born mysteriously in the north of the VDB. After several promising grades he got into the University of Granderson, the elite-graduating with a degree in Political Science. He was going to go back to get further degrees but was enlisted in the Air Force. After his superiors heard about the call, he was sent because he was considered the most promising of the new generation of soldiers.

...the vehicle would be next to useless. The team is going to be airlifted into combat zones, which are often as far as 1000 miles away, and the dropships can't handle anything larger than a Fast Attack Vehicle. Also, the forward base where the team will be operating from will be resupplied via air drops and ground convoys, so bringing a vehicle full of ammo is unnecessary. A couple crates, sure, but as much as 8500+ lbs, that's more than a little excessive for a well supplied base. As a result, I can't approve the Ural.


Well, that's fair enough. :p A modified Ural 'Black Bertha' ZVO truck was probably pushing it a tad!

Right, now where are those July Loyalists... *rubs hands*

Editing My Post

Apologies for the misunderstanding

Vetaka, no need to appologize.

VDB, welcome to the Alfa Teams.

Atopiana, I had to ask that the Nazi terrorists be removed, it was really bothering me.

No prob. Also, late addition to the weaponry, but I forgot to add something. If it's ok, can my troops carry the GWO-produced Heavy Class Combat Chainsaw? It's essentially a triple bladed UAC chainsaw.

*wipes drool away* :eek: Now THAT sounds freakin cool!
I'd love to see the specs on that!

Get a grip man! We haven't even started and you're already losing it RS.

Alright, so, I'm going to go ahead and post my character, (No Saya, sorry, she seems a little too happy for this thread). But realise, that I again won't be on all that often. I'll try to be on for the opening thread, but no promises. Now that you have all been sufficently warned, here I go.

Name: Fukusyu Musashi
Age: 29
Height: 6'4
Weight: 184 lbs
Hair: Long, past his shoulders, dark brown, curly, usually in a ponytail.
Eyes: Color changing, depending on mood. (I just love that idea)
Weapons: Vietnam style automatic rifle, katana, battoujutsu style, slightly modified.
Rank: Kial (Equivalant to a Squad commander)
Personality: He is not very prone to making friends, usually hating, or at least pretending to hate, everyone. He is one of those people who lives for his hate alone, and probably needs someone to give him something to love.
Bio: Fukusyu, or Akira as his birth name was, was born in Naoto, the capital of Mereshka, but he and his parents moved to a small town called Miga. Miga was one of the first places to fall to the zombie plague. The entire town was infected, except for Akira and his family, because of some odd gene in them, making them immune to the virus. Akira was out getting firewood when the killings began. Once they got bored of eating each other, the zombies went after his family. He got back just soon enough to hold his little sister as she died. After that, he changed his name to Fukusyu, meaning revenge, and joined a special forces team, specifically meant to deal with the 'supernatural'. He quickly rose through the ranks, probably fueled by pure anger.

Welcome t the Alfa Teams Mereshka, good to see you.

Atopiana, I had to ask that the Nazi terrorists be removed, it was really bothering me.

Oh. :( Count me out then. Best of luck with the RP! :)

Well, looks like I got here just in time. I'm only brining in one. (Guess who)

Personality: Definetly gruffer then he was during the last few missions, also has a darker outlook on things after being forced to kill Patrick Harker. (More on that later) His role in his death have shaken him to the very core, leaving him a hollow shell that throws his haunted frame at whatever chalenge he can get.
Bio: After serving with the QCS for several years, he finally accepted treatment for the UH strain, causing a reduced effect, but not total irradication (More on that later) He was in command of the QCS until recently, having been removed from his post, demoted, and sent back into field duty after the death of the QCS' second in command, Patrick Harker.

Alright, you're approved UHC, as is everyone else if I acidentally missed you.

All right, it'll sort of be like old times, except darker. Way darker. But with a triple bladed chainsaw.....:D

I'll post up a short character bio for the CO and XO of the Alfa Teams.


Commanding Officer: Alfa Teams:

Nikolai Dmitri Kupchenko

Bio: One of the best snipers in Shenyangi history, was known for his jaded outlook on missions involving the undead after the ZIV-01 outbreak at Solis Ortus. The constant combat against the undead has made him the single most experienced soldier in Shenyang in the field of 'counter-affliction warfare'.
The current outbreak has caused him to become much more depressed than in the past. It is evident from his manner that he is losing hope. Nonetheless, he is the best Shenyang has for this job.
He was promoted to Captain specifially to give him command of this unit.
He is married with twin daughters.


Executive Officer: Alfa Teams:

Alexander Marshall
Rank: 1st Lieutenant
Age: 25 yrs
Height: 6'1"
Weight: 168 lbs

Bio: A proficient rifleman and pointman of his SAS team. Recieved specific instruction in close-quarters combat. Has been paired with Capt. Kupchenko for several years and the two have become close friends, Capt. Kuphenko is currently married to 1Lt. Marshall's older sister. Marshall has a much less melancholy outlook on life, however his normally upbeat manner is beginning to show cracks under the strain of containing this outbreak.
He is normally unquestioningly loyal to Kupchenko, however he is not above making his doubts known when he believes that there a better course of action.
He was promoted to 1st Lieutenant in order to take the role of executive officer of the Alfa Teams.
He is married, however does not yet have children.

One quick question. Is Shenyang going to RP the zombies, or is someone else going to apply to be the uberl337zawmbeesnipurdeltawforseninjawkumandur/Zombie Commander?

OOC: When is this going to start?

Each person gets to do their specific interaction with the undead, that way I don't have to write up 50 page responses hourly. I will request that people not take an stance like 'OMG T3h Zawmb33Z R T3h Sukz0rz Lol!!111' Think of it like how your military would respond to a scenario similar to '28 Weeks Later meets Dawn of the Dead meets Resident Evil'. Don't make your characters out to be unstoppable super-men, but don't go killing yourself off without a damn good fight either.

The zombies don't have any strategy, they're basically feral killing machines. No in-fighting amongst them though.

I'll be posting 'Mission 1: Tactics of Desperation' in December 27th.

Is there any sort of zombie-classification? (Like certain types are actually intelligent, etc.)

Also, keep in mind I haven't seen any of those movies yet.

i think the most realistic(i know dumb, its not real) the dawn of the dead remake where they coud run, i think that was the scaryiest and they sold it better in my opinion.

I just looked up the story for 28 Days Later on Wikipedia. Very useful indeed.

I like the realistic idea in that story that the Infected can't get off the island, unlike many other stories I've heard where they cross from Europe into North America or vice-versa.

Hope it's not too late to sign up. And the story is more like 28 Weeks Later.

My Chars:

PS: if accepted, could i add one more member to my team. research on Marine fireteams show that the usual number is four. i am fine if this is the maximum, though. also, can i RP support from the rest of the MEU?

You're approved, but I can't approve any extra members as a matter of policy, sorry. The Shenyangi Military will be providing any support that is necessary, or requested, as long as it doesn't require more resources than we can provide to a tactical operation.

okay, that's cool. i think all the necessary team positions are met anyway...but earlier you said we could have supplies delivered to your base, right? that's more of what i meant. no actual participation...and my team i was planning to insert w/ air cover...is that acceptable?

I hope there's room for one more in the boat, so to speak.

King's Royal Guard

Name: Matthew Perrington
Rank: Lieutenant
Age: 29
Height: 5'10"
Weight: 185 lbs.
Hair: Brown
Eyes: Blue
Weapon: Ellsdon National Service Rifle equipped with optical sight mounts and unattached optical sights(Archaic bolt action design, akin to the Lee Enfield), Ellsdon 1910 Service Pistol, bayonet for rifle, survival kit.

Bio: Lieutenant Perrington graduated from The King's Military College of Ellsdon, aged twenty one, and, after six years of distinguished peacetime service as an officer in the Bellanusian infantry joined the King's Guards, the special forces, par se, of Bellanusia. With a good military education, good shooting abilities and a calm approach, Lieutenant Perrington is considered a model soldier within the Guards.

Shenyang is going to be inserting the team into various AO's, and performing extraction duties. We're also providing for air support, artillery, other teams, the whole 9 yards.

As to 'classifications' of zombies. I cannot confirm nor deny the presence of 'zombie variants' at this time.

I will give a basic overview of what kind of zombie we're talking about.

These undead the result of a currently inncurable weaponized viral agent, known within Shenyang as 'ZIV-01' (Zombie Infection Virus - 01) or more commonly amongst civilian and special operations circles, 'Plague 11', in reference to the 10 plagues of Egypt. It has an extremely short incubation period, varying from 1 to 72 hours depending on the patient and the level of injury. Shorter or longer periods have been recorded. It is usually presents in most 24 to 72 hour cases as initially flu-like, rapidly progressing to cell necrosis and eventually, a full system failure, causing near immediate death. Reanimation time is universally between 2 to 10 minutes.
No attempts to create an effective vaccine have ever been successful in any number of tests, and research has been halted pending further investigation of the viral agent.

'Undead' individuals exhibit many capabilities not common to normal humans.

They do not need sleep.
They do not need to rest, this constant state of activity will eventually lead to the total failure of their musculature, leading to immobility, this commonly takes several years.
They do not rely on any one sense, instead relying on each equally, giving boosted perception in the form of 'enhanced' hearing and smell. The optical accuity of a given individual is largely unchanged from the formerly living individual. Optical accuity is also dependent on the state of the individual, more advanced damage to the eyes or optic nerve will invariably lead to decreased levels of visual perception. This means that they are much more capable hunters than a similarly equipped human.
They are capable of running at speeds up to 12 miles per hour, but lack the coordination to maintain this speed without stumbling for anything other than short distances.
They do not have the intelligence or dexterity to operate machinery other than by fluke accident, hitting a switch or button.
This extends to doors which swing toward them.
They cannot climb ladders.
They can be distracted by loud noises, flashes of light.
They can, but do not always emit a 'moan' as a warning of impending attack.
They have no need to breathe.
They can be killed either via the cliched headshot, or through massive trauma to the body.
They possess rudimentary hunting skills, similar to feral animals.
They may hunt in packs, but do not have any group mentality.
They smell of decomposing flesh.

In short, your standard zombies, with a few minor tweaks by yours truly. Any variants that may be suggested should be sent to me via TG, I'll review them, then decide if they get in or not, as a nice little, horrifying surprise.

To Bellanusia, you are approved. Welcome to the meat grinder, err, Alfa Teams.

wow, this blows, i might not be here tomarrow for the opening.

Wow, running zombies, gonna be harder then usual. But then again, a nice shot to the knees usualy stops anything running, living or somewhere in between.

Excellent, thank you Shen. I might just edit his equipment list a little on a second thought, he seems to be a tad under equipped, survival wise.

Shenyang, that is an awesome list. This looks like it will be awesome :D

Huh, I picked the perfect kit, the newest assault rifle (and the best) followed by a legendary favorite that survived almost eighty years of service. Sweet.

I am going to submit a character that has been in a lot of undead RP's, considered one of the best undead fighters in my country, along with a pal he's brought along. Shen, you ought to recognize this first man..

K, premise sounds good...
And I do have a branch in my military that tangles with wierd stuff...

8. Please, send a maximum of 3 characters, preferrably only 1 character, I will not accept armies, and 3 characters starts to become most people's main character cut-off, after that, they start to lose any individual identity.
K, this is the only isue I see a problem with.
1/6th of your nation is undead, your nation is turning to outside mercs for help, and yet the best any nation can send is a reduced size fire team? (http://www.blastwavecomic.com/index.php?p=comic&nro=22)
Now I think I see why you're allowing Super-Soldiers...

I suppose can send a 'team' of 'experts' to 'assist' your regular forces. (2 riflemen and a grenadier [1 cpl + 2 pvts as the ultimate insult to your nation's military])

Would you like Marine Raiders or Hurtful Outcomes's mercs? (Paper or Plastic?)
-yes, it does make a differance

Most likely I'll only name the cpl, leaving the other two as simple 'redshirts', I may try naming them along the way to my next reply to your response.
(Story primarily told through cpl's eyes, with the other two as secondary perspective)

The outsiders are sent to a special unit, not cut loose in the country, you're clear as long as nothing violates my stated rules. I'll choose Marine Raiders.

Oh, and happy new year.

So....

Is mission 2 the group of other guys bailing the partial success of mission 1?
Or is mission 1 just waiting for someone to bring in a helicopter?

And is the helicopter going to wait until one (or more) of the guys finally die?

Is it too late for me to join or do I simply have to wait till the next mission for my guy to join. I have an idea of what I want to do and if I get the 'go ahead' from you then I'll flesh it out more.

Well, just out of fairness, I signed up before you on post...

*checks*

81...

And I'm still waiting patiently for mission 2.

Post 80 seemed to be the cutoff for mission 1, since a new squad appearing for little no/reason while everyone is boarding the next chopper out seems kinda hard to swallow.

On the upside, everyone is boarding the chopper out, mission 1 is ending, and mission 2 is around the next corner.

So you may want to work on your squad.

Height: 5'6"
Weight: 165 lbs.
Hair: Blond
Eyes: Brown
Weapon: A specialized chemical dart fireing platform (decribed below), several test tubes of Sulfuric acid, and a pair of kamas.

Well, on the plus side, Ruthless Sluaghter's character may get the boot due to mental issues.

Plus, from the direction of the IC, they'd be happy to have more people involved. Since most of the team is near that breaking point.

Most likely Kirk (RS's char) will get benched with a shrink for mission 2.
UHC's guys aren't fairing much better.
The true mark of an RPer is when the low-level grunts start freaking out in a realistic fashion...

Looks like you'll be in as a set of replacements...

"I'll make sure you're on point..."*

May want to drop the Dr.'s tranq gun for something with a bit more kick...

**Oh.. crud.. the guy with the shotgun automaticly gets point...
*looks for anoyone else with a shotgun*

250 shotshells don't last long against thousands of zombies...
And niether does 1400 rifle bullets...[800+600]

Ah good. Alex the XO (Shenyang) and FC-IEU98 (GWO) have shotguns too!
I'm saved!!!!!

That's the Great thing about it is that it not only fires tranq's but also darts filled with Hydrogen Peroxide, which reacts with the coagulated blood rupturing the flesh and causing it to fall off in large chunks. I am also thinking about giving him other chemical darts. Hopefuly I don't butcher science to much but I'll love the idea of a chemical warfare specialst

So you'll kill zombies with a mild anti-septic bleach?

May I suggest a flamethrower?

And if you must carry an acid, make it nitric.
For the sheer epic win of turning wallpaper into pipe-bombs...

White phosphur comes to mind...

And you do realize that such weapons wouldn't be terribly effective against fast zombies that feel no pain, don't breath, and don't need blood.

Chemical weapons generally just lack the range or instant killing capacities necessary to make sure your first kill isn't your last.

Kinetic energy wins over chemical properties in this case.
Plus, anything dangerous to them is considerably more dangerous for yourself and your teamates.

Sure you wouldn't want to be a demolitions expert?

The breakroom thread is up, its for all the down time between missions, I'll use it to announce each new mission as well, so if everyone could transit over I'd appreciate it.

http://forums.jolt.co.uk/showthread.php?t=547292

anyone I haven't approved is free to arrive during the lull or just before mission 2. I suggest arriving soon, to ease the transition.

I'm going to agree, without the necessity of complex support systems of a normal human, my zombies would be nigh invincible to hypodermic dart-based weapons. I'd keep it as a secondary weapon, you never know what might happen and what you may need, but I'd also suggest some form of firearm (I'll accept anything from a GPMG to a crossbow, I'm pretty flexible in that regard) primary weapon.

I'll be supplying ammo and allowing resupply drops (just not in mission), should people need it, so he can bring as much or as little ammo as he wants.

Is it too late to join in on this?

Submit a character, if it meets my guidelines in post 1 and I approve it, then you're in.

I like to keep things open, atleast for a bit.

Weapon of Choice: Twin Berreta 9mm semi-automatic pistol, hollow-point rounds
Secondary: Incendiary Grenade
Bio: Previously assigned to the Home Guard Recovery and Restoration Unit, or "Cleaning Squad", she had dealt with her fair share of scientific abominations, Timor having a knack for creating genetic mishaps that run rampant within the confines of its scientific preserves. She has had genetic treatments that enhance her stamina slightly beyond that of a normal human, and has enhanced hearing and smell.

He has never faced off against the undead, but he is calm, collected, and works well under stress. The Hurfdurfistani government, although it will ostensibly deny his employment, believes that Biggs will make a fine addition to Alfa Team.

Go for the helicopter.

Yeah, but for some reason the air strike doesn't blow through thin, aluminum buildings... Countdown, for instance.

Yeah, you'd think a quonset hut wouldn't hold up to a cluster bomb hit. Still, if you get em when they're in the open it's brutal, like 6 kills brutal.

Useless on vacant though, since everyone's always inside and away from the windows, same problem with the chopper there too.
