Recruitment : Lone Eagle Incident, Alternate Reality? Options

[Mister Juan]

Ok.... I did that way too fast. Back to the drawing tables ;)

[Noctum]

Yea I'm looking at playing a Naval Emergency Ordanance Disposal (EOD) who's primary rate was WT(Weapons Tech) in the late 90's. Weapons Techs are one of the only people who touch Nukes in the Navy. He would have spent his first 8 yrs to make chief and then crossed to Warrent Officer in say 1999, continuing his Career for the next 10 yrs, he would be one of the best people for the job having EOD and WT training, a broad familiarity with all types of Ordanace including Nukes. Pulled for the Delta Op because he is the best... Hows that?

[FrostyNSO]

That sounds like a perfect "special case".

How much training in firearms would this EOD guy have? Is it one of those "Well, I handled one in basic training." things?

oh and are you sure that's not explosive ordanance disposal?

[imperialus]

Well I'm gonna have to play around with my stats a bit. I have what basically amounts to a rough draft going right now I need a bit more tweaking. I'll have something by tommorow noonish.

[imperialus]

Ok character stats: It's been a while since I've done up a combat character for SR so if there is anything you see him missing please let me know.

In terms of weapons I see him going for something compact and versitile that won't get in the when when he is doing first aid. He'll leave most of the shooting to other team members, at least until our cover is blown and we're in a firefight either way so I'm not too worried about silencers and the like, therefore either the 5.56mm M4A1 carbine, the 7.62mm FAL OSW or the 7.62mm FAL-Para Assult Rifle seem to fit the bill. Sidarm I'm probably going to go for the H&K Mk23 Mod 0 (SOCOM), light security armour and a helmet. I'm unsure of what to go for in terms of a first aid kit since most of the cannon first aid supplies are far beyond 2009 technology. Beyond that he's just going to carry basic gear, comlink ect and a small prayer mat and a pocket version of the Koran.

edit: Ditched shotguns got more cash. 38500 now.

[Tashio]

Yup, was heading that way will have some basic tech skills on top, with some electronics b/r and such, to cover for disarming the bombs if needed as well plus com skills. Probably only end up having 1 weapon skill.

Whoever is leader might want to pick up small unit tactics as well.

I'm just struggling to get enough skills together might end up having to have a bunch of 4's and a couple 6's

[Shadow]

ok I am going to do something I don't normally do. I am going to base a character off of a t.v. Show. I hope you guys don't mind. The show is, 7 Days. the character is, Frank B. Parker. I will get back to you later today on stats and a history. My donation to the money pool will be 650k.

[Tashio]

How is money/equipment going to work? We all pool and buy eq from that for everyone? Or will we be provided with certain equipment like weapons/ammo/armor seeing as this is military.

[imperialus]

It's my impression that we pool our money and buy needed gear. I'm assuming that this isn't nessesarally going to include the transport aircraft that we helo drop from (assuming we decide to halo drop) since that could run into the millions but guns, ammo, armour ect is gonna come from the group pool. Our resources represent us requisitioning gear as needed.

[FrostyNSO]

imperialus is correct.

We won't be buying aircraft and whatnot, but whatever cash we have available will be pooled as a "budget" for our personal equipment. (We'll decide what equipment once we get our warning order)

ohyeah, and here's a quick and dirty for the npc captain...

-Oh and as far as gear is concerned, the main things we won't have access to are simsense, cyberware, and magic of course. A lot of the other gear represented is available nowadays, so when we get around to choosing gear, we'll just be mindful of that.

[imperialus]

you should have named one of his kids Damian :P

[imperialus]

Mosly just cause I'm bored here's a shorter bio on Mo. Just for referance. Probably also entails what the other team members know about him.

He refuses to gamble or play games of chance but enjoys chess a great deal. Has carried the nickname Mo since grade school since many of his friends couldn't be bothered to say his full name all the time.

[FrostyNSO]

[FrostyNSO]

Mo looks pretty good so far. So if he's pretty much final, we've got 1 so far with a couple on the way. If we need, I'll bust out a character too =)

[DL]

I am intrested if you still have room. Willing to play just about anything. I will be leaving work soon here today and check back later tonight on what is still needed in the group and make something up if there is room.

DL

[Noctum]

EOD is Explosive... and actually quite a few EOD guys I know spent time in the SEAL teams as well I could always have some combat experience... I will make a character sheet up and post it tomorrow.

[FrostyNSO]

[DL]

I will play the Engineer position or a recon person. Recon being the scout who takes point and then comes back with info. Let me know what you want more and I will make a loose background late late tonight or tmw.

DL

edited for spelling

[FrostyNSO]

Recon = Intel/Ops

I'm not sure what Shadow decided on or if he's still in...last I heard he wanted to do a sniper guy, so that would cover our recon.

[imperialus]

[FrostyNSO]

just a test...Guess nobody saw me accidentally post the warning order!

[FrostyNSO]

Formal declaration:

I am increasing the BP total to 625 karma BecKs

<or>

points system (123 pts.)/priority system +200 good karma after finalization

In order to account for players having to scrimp and pick up low-ass skills.

Notes:

My knowledge of the military in terms of what gets what rank and such is not that great. So if Frosty could prehaps make sure her rank is applicable. I'm also not sure what sort of training she would have undergone besides Basics and Office Training. Or what branch of the military she would have best served under.

Let me know if this is okay or if there are some changes I should make prehaps add/remove certain skills.

[imperialus]

Ok. I guess if I have some extra skills BP's I'll crosstrain into... something... I dunno.

[FrostyNSO]

hmmmm...So far, women aren't allowed to try out for SF. We will seriously have to think about how far women's equality and the need for professionals has come in 4 years.

As for rank, We would have a Captain in charge, followed by a Warrant Officer. Everyone else would be at least Staff Sergeant or Gunnery Sergeant.

For training, Your basic SF pipeline would include Infantry OSUT, Airborne, SOPC, SFAS, SFQC, Special Operations, Direct Action Isolation, Air Operations, Unconventional Warfare, Isolation, and SERE.
