@Oak7ree Walter's still here, just not sure how to integrate him into the espionage. Any ideas on your end?

@Afro Samurai, @shylarah Perhaps Izkry and Walter could act as a pair, covering each other's backs as waiting staff.

@Oak7ree Because he's never been around people with thick accents as he's grown up in a primarily African-American community most of his life where few foreign accents grace his ear.

Hello. This roleplay seems interesting. Is it still going though? And can I make an "enhanced individual" who fights for the Axis?

@shylarah On my part, no. I've been a bit busy lately, but I am not pronouncing this dead.

Edit: (Optional) A history trivia question about WWII.

At what battle was this picture taken?

@Oak7ree This is the battle of Tali-Ihantala in Finland. If you look closely to the uniform, you'd notice it's actually Finnish. When USSR attacked Finland, Finland became allies with Germany, and many things (including soldiers, I think) were sent to Finland to help them out.

Germany saw Finland as a crucial ally, especially because of Leningrad (USSR attacked Finland because the border was too close to Leningrad in the first place).

@Super Grandpa Sorry for the delay, but the answer is yes. You're hired. The RP has been for some time been a bit quiet, to put it mildly. What kind of Axis character do you have in mind?

And Tali-Ihantala is correct.

The Soviets tried in the summer of 1944, right after the Normandy landings, push through the Finnish lines. After the Winter War, Finland became closer with Germany. During the summer and fall of 1941, Finland reclaimed lands lost to the Soviet Union as the operation Barbarossa took the Soviets by surprise.

Ever since the late 1941 and early 1942, the Finnish front had been quite quiet. The Soviet attack through the Finnish-occupied land towards Finland forced the country out of the WWII as the Soviet Union's enemy. Tali-Ihantala was a major battle, and as a result of the battle and few other engagements, the Soviet advance was stopped.

During the WWII, Finland fought three major conflicts; the Winter War, the Cobtinuation War and the Lapland War. The first two were agaisnt the Soviet, while the third was agaisnt the Germans. Before and during the Continuation War, German troops had been transported to Finland and given the task to fight in the northern battlefields. After the Soviets forced Finland out of the Continuation War, they also forced Finnish troops to expel the Germans from Northern Finland.

Before and during the battle of Tali-Ihantala, the Finns gained materiel support from the Germans, mostly arms, and also the Detatchment Kuhlmey was assigned to Finland. As example of material support Finland received, there were Panzerfausts, Stumgeshütz III tank destroyers, BF-109s, fuel and food.

You know what, guys and gals? I've seen Dunkirk, and it was awesome. Damn you, Christopher Nolan, for getting a proper audio team. I can still hear those Stukas and their diving...
