(This is for all who want to take a strike at ralkovia's fascist government or just to have some fun)
To all Mercenaries, Foreign Soldiers, and criminals, your services are required by the Imperial Empire of Balkov. We pay handsomely and rewards along with pay are generous if you can secure victory.
This letter was sent to every soldier they could.
The Ralkovians were amassing almost a milllion troops on the border. Bedsons bridge led to the most important region in the Ralakonian Continent, Ruthmenostan. The Ralkovians were ready to attack and the only thing that stood between them and over 800 billion barrels of oil, 5 mines of gold, 13 mines of silver, 1 gem mine, and plenty of other valueable resources.
The balkovs could not spare a single division, army, or even platoon. They could only send the foreign legion and some mercenaries to secure the huge region. The center of the conflict would be at Beldsons Bridge spanning over the hyahou river.
The ralkovians were set to invade with overwhelming power, Heavy tanks, planes, choppers, APCs and artillery support while the Balkovs could only spare a few hundred APCs and light tanks with spotty artillery and air support.

One of you can be an officer in the balkov military who is in charge of this operation. If you are the officer than you and me will work together closely.
RULES:
1. No team killing, friendly fire but nothing serious and it has to be a mutual plan
2. The officer is in charge
3. The officer has to tell a radio man to call in reinforcements, artillery, air support, etc. the radio man will radio command, which is me, and I will either approve your call or say that we can't.
4. Your nation shouldn't be involved unless you ask me and receive permission
I'm interested, do I have to be part of Balkov though? Could I bring in Ursavians to help the Ralkovians?

Character Sheet
Name: Thomas Gaines "Sicko" Roarke
Gender: Male
Age: 37
Appearance: Stands 5' 9.5". Shaggy brown hair that goes about midway down his next (stays close), dark brown eyes, horizontal scar on left cheek, horizontal scar across bridge of nose, right arm badly scarred, stocky, takes delight in destroying things, no real ideological or national loyalty, blunt, rude, combative, self-confident, foul-mouthed, and dislikes micromanagers. He tends to wear an old steel helmet, has "dragonhide"-style or ceramic body armour, worn under a grey, green, brown, or camo shirt, convertable pant/shorts, and combat boots.
Weapons: (keep it to what you can carry): Bren Light Machinegun, Desert Eagle pistol, RPG7, M4 Carbine w/ grenade launcher, old sword bayonet
Vehicles: (light tank, or apc, or a few humvees): 144 mm Mounted Autogun on tank chassis (He calls it "Sid")
Role: Demolition, machinegunner, tank commander
History: Widely considered batshit insane (hence his nickname) in mercenary circles, he delights in causing destruction, mayhem, and doesn't care who it's done to.
He was born in the tribal regions of Afghanistan, and grew up there (his father was an officer in the occupying army there) in 1972 and early on served as a mercenary in the intertribal wars. Even then he was always employed with caution, because generally what he was sent to attack was reduced to a smoldering ruin or crater by the time he was finished. He quickly gained a reputation for singlemindedness, looking at problems with a unique (or skewed, depending on how you looked at it) point of view. Former conflicts that he has been employed in are: FNAT wars against the RBPA, Drepner, some (not all) of the Greal-related wars, various jobs in tribal Afghanistan, a job or two with Ralkovia (you just don't know it :eek:), and at least 14 other conflicts.
OOC: I will happily fight for either side.
Also note that he has two helpers who pilot Sid.

OOC: For now please play on the balkov side, this is supposed to be a fast operation thing since ralkovia is busy in several other involvements. This is going to more or less be a fun little thread on the battle.
So for now please participate on the balkov side.
Tocrowkia you can get your nation involved but please only on a small scale. Ralkovia is still reeling after its defeat to you so please limit it around the level of a corp.(like 30,000 to 40,000 troops)
Though if you do RP with your nation Tocrowkia permission for air support and artillery strikes will still be under my control. However you can call for reinforcements whenever you like and you can bring in heavy tanks. That is if you are supporting the balkov.
------------------------------------------------------------
Fanboyist you are accepted.

Pretty much you want it to where Balkov is crushed? That's unfair that you'll be controlling whether they get reinforcements, air support, or artillery because if a fire-fight doesn't go your way you can just deny all their requests and have all yours come through.
If I am going to participate though, I'd be willing to send some kid-soldiers in aid of Ralkovia in this affair.

(Actually its up for grabs who is going to win. I only like to rp the drama, action, and tragedy part. I just don't want everyone to be going Artillery strike here, artillery strike their, bombers over here bombers over there...now all your troops are dead I WIN.
I like depth and focus. If you know my rp style I focus on the small things, come up with back ground stories for characters. etc. This is just my way of getting to control the scenes that unfold in this rp. I want to rp realistically do you think every call for artillery is met with right away and the entire enemy army gets bombed to death.)
OOC: I still think it's unfair for you to control Balcov's support but whateve'. Anyways what about my kid-soldier's aiding Ralkovia?
Ralkovia
07-12-2008, 19:26
( Balkov banned kid-soldiers along time ago. Ralkovia uses them a little bit as militia but not really as much. You can have 16 year olds fighting though since Balkov considers someone an adult at the age of 16 and they can enlist. However I would like it if you could rp with people above age 20. But if its a deciding factor in if you will join or not then go ahead and use child soldiers.
As for the unfairness, its not really unfair. I'm going to let most of the calls for artillery come through but I like to create suspense and thrills. As I said before I'm only going to start denying calls for artillery and support if it is abused but I will not allow any support early on until we establish some sort of order in the rp.)

Can the guys that fought you in Tropicalo join. Only that guy be in charge? Your choice.

(Greston sure you can and I'll look foward to the insane guy again)

So will I. They will no longer be part of the Grestonian military since they were arrested for the collateral damage the cause (ex: killing over 30 civilians and attempting to raid a neutral nation's capital building) but they will be just as extensively armed, if not more so, and can help quite a bit.

That will be fun, to bad the death guard and skull guard were abolished. Or Bradenburgs interrogator could make an appearance.
I meant for Ralkovia, that way you wouldn't pawn my face. Then again, they go in with no identification and their files are deleted so I guess I'll send some. My kid-soldiers range anywhere fr om 12-17 and all officers within a group are adults. So I guess I'll submit my characters (the ones I'll be directly controlling, there will obviously be others).

When I said involved, I didn't mean on a massive level. Just a small group of Spec-Ops
