"We depart in five...
"Four...
"Three...
"Two...
"One! Everyone out! Move, move, move!"
The sergeant called out from the front of the plane, beside the open door. Several men shuffled forward and leapt out into the cool night air, several hundred feet in the air, and unfurled their parachutes.
The sergeant waited for a moment, and swore as anti-aircraft gun bullets pierced through the plane's underbelly, leaving large holes curving upward, towards other holes in the ceiling. He swore and leapt out of the plane, following the others, shortly before the plane's pilots were killed and the plane spiraled through the air, catching a lone paratrooper in it's nose as it fell down. They dragged down and crashed into a narrow strip of land below, exploding, sending flaming debris flying into the water below, smoke trailing behind.
The sergeant looked around. Above, the air was littered with planes, parachutes, and bullets. He looked down. The terrain was really a swamp where they were landing- A lot of water and many narrow strips of land littered with foliage. He looked ahead- An anti-aircraft gun, ignoring him. Soldiers were littered among it, some aiming at the paratroopers gently wafting down, and others carefully looking around for soldiers attempting to assault it. The Sergeant landed on the shoreline and pulled out a trench knife, cutting the parachute's line and discarding it into the water. He pulled out his rifle carefully, and hid in the foliage.
Well, this was really inspired by Company of Heroes. In it, you land along a road, in which your goal is to destroy the anti-aircraft guns so as to allow the paratroopers to land, and to secure the road, so as to allow "Operation Overlord," The amphibious landings on Omaha and Utah beaches, to be successful. Really, the Roleplay is intended to run parallel to Company of Heroes' campaign- starting with the Paratrooper landings, and ending with the attack on Berlin. Then the roleplay will end.
You may play as either an American or British unit. You can be anywhere from a Private to a Sergeant. You may be armed with rifle, submachine gun, or recoiless rifle. Along the way you may pick up Mortars (Requires a cooperative Roleplayer or an NPC to use) Machine guns, Anti-
Aircraft guns (Same story as the Mortars), Panzershreks (German Bazookas) And various other weaponry. You are armed with many Grenades and plenty of ammo, maybe even a Satchel Charge.
