Troy Military Academy
An Excerpt from the Troy Military Academy information letter.
Troy Military Academy is an institute created to prepare patriotic individuals to join the United Conglomerate Sectors (UCS) Military. Equipped to train approximately 300 soldiers at a time, the facility usually averages around 250 students, allowing a smaller atmosphere and better personal training from the instructors to the trainees.
The academy trains students, age seventeen through and up, over the course of 18 months, to perform advanced firearms procedures, first through third level hand-to-hand combat training, urban and wilderness survival techniques, and other skills of priceless use in the service of their country.
The trainees are divided into squadrons. There are 26 squadrons, each with a maximum of 12 trainees. The squadrons are named after a letter in the NATO Phonetic Alphabet, AKA, Alpha, Bravo, Charlie, etc. Throughout the course, the squads will compete against each other in training exercises called "War Games."
Over the length of the training, students will be instructed through three sections of learning, each divided into the six months. The first section includes basic skills that are taught by standard military training, while expanding on it as well. The second and third section of training teach advanced techniques and procedures, while touching back on the previous section(s). At the end of the year, a final exam of sorts will be given to fully test every skill learned over the 18 months spent in the program, and will not be easy in any way. Students will fail if not properly ready for the exam.
This Roleplay will be set in the early future, specifically in the year 2115. Almost thirty-five years prior to the events of the game, The United States (now the United Conglomerate Sectors), Russia, and the United Kingdom, declared victory after a nearly eight year continuous conflict with Communist China, North Korea, and the Empire of Japan.
The UCS began to emphasize a stronger, more institutionalized military. This brought about the rise of High-End Military Training Academies (MTA’s).
Our game takes place in one of the top MTA’s in the world, Troy Military Academy. Located outside of New Boston, in Sector 4 (What used to be the Massachusetts area).

Rules
*ALL GUILD RULES APPLY*
1. There is a minimum of 2 Paragraphs per post. One-Liners are NOT ACCEPTED. Lengthy posts are more than welcome, but quality is far valued over quantity.
2. While this is a mature RP with mature characters, I ask you to keep your posts classy. I don't mind swearing or cursing but if it guess ridiculous, I'll have to asks you to tone it down. The same rule applies to romance. General affection is fine, but if we get a little frisky, it needs to stop or go to PM's if it really means that much to you.
3. Please be respectful to other players. Conflict is often unavoidable, but please conduct yourself with some manner of decency. Slander, hate-speech, racism, and discrimination of any kind is never tolerated and I will not hesitate to respectfully ask you to leave. I do hope this won't be necessary cause this can be a really fun game.
4. Along with the previous rule, no character will directly take action on another character with mutual consent. Your character can't go killing someone just because. There really shouldn't be death in this game (YET! MUAHAHAHA!)
5. I reserved the right to add rules if I see fit.
6. Please PM me your character sheet. Do not post it in this thread until I approve it.
I will be taking 9 total players, allowing one space for myself in the game. First dibs comes from those in the interest check. They know who they are.
