The plot

After years of tension, the nations of the world broke down into a war that seems to have no end, where ambitions, grudges, and rivalry won in every diplomacy, but after years of slaughter and destruction. The war finally ended but with it the world.

The plants that fed us rotten and withered, the animals that sustained us tainted and decayed, the land that supported us soften and crumbled, the water that strengthens and fortified us dried up, and the atmosphere that protected us weaken and in disrepair.

As the remnants of mankind fought against one another over the last remaining supplies, another war broke out, a war controlled by fear and greed, soon the mistakes of the past occurred but as all fought for survival and greed, a man desiring peace and unity came.

Driven by his own crusade, he subjugated the clans and returned peace unto the world, but as peace and unity returned to earth, and on the process of returning it back to the way it was before, the truth came out, that the world only had three more years until Earth turns into a mankind's grave.

This news was shocking indeed, but mankind accepted it knowing that all of this was all their doing, but with this knowledge sparked something mankind failed to do in its time of plenty, Unity.

Mankind is united in this era of scarce, as everyone was under one nation, and now the same goal, working as one but when mankind has woken from the ideologies that once separates him all has been lost.

But, as mankind gave up on survival and focused on the preservation of man's legacy, a miracle happened, a continent similar to the mythical Atlantis appeared and with it a gate leading to the unknown.

Will this lead to mankind to salvation or would this cement mankind's doom?

Where do we start then?

Well we start at the near future but due to constant war technology stalled and we will be forced to use weapons and equipment that we have in may of 2018 this will make it easier to for all of me to manage and push we already have equipment and weapons capable of bringing utter destruction to a country on the other side of the world.

The Factions

You can play or create a nation from the ruins of the modern world of course it must be part of the UNE(United Nations of Earth) and of course in the fantasy world. At first these two will be at odds with one another but, in time will open up to one another. As for how to create a fraction you can refer to the template that would be given in the bottom.

Though I employ you all to self police yourselves in making your nations, I do in fact give you the creative freedom and pleasure of making them, as I want to be surprise and it would brighten up the world much more.

For the modern people there are two factions. The Unity faction and the Separation faction.

The Unity faction is at essense the nations still united as one nation. Where cooperation and peaceful solution are what they prefer the most but, they know the importance of military might.

The Separation faction wants to make their own nations and separate from the UNE once and for all.

important details

Those that won't work for the start

• Radios
• Satellites
• The internet
  
  
  Hider

  Since we are all crossing front to a new world this means of communications are still not set up and will require a much time to actually set up and establish so for now they would not be available at first.
• Nukes
  
  
  Hider

  The nukes have been all but, virtually used up or destroyed in this world. The war that started the collapsed of man was log and devastating
• if you thought of something that could be game breaking, please ask me first.

Possible questions in the future

What's the goal.

Well, that varies with your faction and what your nation is the unity one still has a central government that they have to answer to but, they have as much freedom as they have to decide and make there own laws basically establish yourself in the new world.

The fantasy you have to either adapt or react to these strange new people, will you tie up relationships or will this end in bloody war the choice is at your fingertips as you outnumber them 1 to 10.

What if I don't like my nation?

Well, the new world has lots of mythical creatures that can easily wipe out your nations from the face of the world.

What if I want more nations?

You can have up to five nations if all of them are small groups but, you have to play as all of them which is gonna be a hassle on your part.

What's is the gate.

It was a giant gate of marble and stone with two commanding iron clad structures of massive soldiers adored with jewelry and gems unknown to man. Floating just above the toxin oceans of earth it beckons the wearily men of earth to enter it. It was named alot of names but, the name that stick the most was hope's gate.

Are the portals destructible

The gate can be indeed be destroyed but, its the only connection mankind has to its previous world.

Do you have more questions just ask me?

About the GM

Just to start off, I'm not the best I know that and I have accepted it. I have not seen an NRP I could get behind, so I decided to make my own. I don't have the very best grammar as some of you or maybe most of you have already noticed from the very top.

So asking you all to have the very best grammar is a hypocritical thing for me to ask of you, as I continue to make the same grammar mistakes over and over again. I honestly just want a post that we can all read, understand, and enjoy. I just want us to have fun as we continue with the story.

For those that are gonna go out for some time, I wish that you all would tell us before you leave. I understand if you have something to do. focus on your family, school, and friends first before this RP I can understand as long as you tell us first.

The RP is set to mid-high casual, as I believe this is where my ability as an RPier I am currently at the moment, I also ask for your forgiveness for anything bad I may do in the future. I truly hope that you enjoy the RP.

@SantosGabriel77

Hahhahaah glad to see you back bro. This is different from the other and the modern side would have a very hard time or are actually the underdogs.

[Wildman13]

Ok we already have a few in.

[Wildman13]

This is the nation sheet for modern or the people of earth.

Modern Nation Sheet

Nations Sheet

Name:

Flag/symbol:(Optional)

How you survived: (For the modern how you survive the world war 3 and 4 while the fantasy gets to tell how their glorious nation came to be.)

(For modern)
You all have a total of four ships.

One is the flagship which would have 5 modules:
(These modules could be military focused or could be meant to house as much people as they can. This is your most powerful ship and at the start your capital, so be creative when you make it. You can ask me what modules are and don't be afraid to ask.)

Two Ships:
(These can be both ships meant to transport as much people as possible or etc.)

One Escorts:
(This is the sole escort of the fleet, so its meant to be mostly built for battle or combat but, is the smallest of all the ships you have, treat it as your recon ship.

Technology: (This is how capable you are. Of course if you installed an factory or a workshop module you can make ammunition, vehicles or etc. but you would be sacrificing room for resources and room for your people.)

Military might: (In default everyone has a starting military size of 275 soldiers and one destroyer due to the crew of your fourth ship which would be your recon ship and offensive ship.)

History:

(Of course you can add as much as you want if you feel that the Nation sheet is lacking.)

Atlantis Group

Atlantis Group

Flag/Symbol:



How you survived:

The Atlantis Group didn't so much survive, as was simply formed after the devastation that was produced by World War Three and Four - they formed namely at the same time as did the United Nations of Earth.

Ships:

Battleship 'Chimaera' - flagship, a giant floating science facility/industrial workshop. Modules: hydroponics, hydrogen manufacturing, recycling facility, laboratory, modest-industrial workshop.

Cruiser 'Ice' - living vessel. A reconfigured cruiser that is designed to utilize space as efficiently as possible to hold both people, a small hydroponics garden and a recycling department.

Cruiser 'Fire' - living vessel. A reconfigured cruiser that is designed to utilize space as efficiently as possible to hold both people, a small hydroponics garden and a recycling department.

Submarine 'Leviathan' - attack/scout vessel. An old diesel-submarine updated with a hydrogen engine and armed to the teeth, with cruise missiles, torpedoes and a flak cannon. It also includes a science lab and an arms depot, with the latest human weaponry.

Technology:

Atlantis Group is based around long-term sustainability - thus they are heavily focused into recycling as much as possible, from waste and old equipment, to even air and water. Nothing is wasted and everything can be remade and recycled on board their vessels - including the ships themselves.

In addition, the Group has invested heavily into improved hydroponics and safe-handling and production of hydrogen for fuel and energy. They also have brought along, several blueprints and parts for manufacturing robotics and have pioneered several improvements in 3D Printing.

Military might:

The Atlantis Group has around four-hundred people ready for combat operations - since the end of World War Three and Four, many of the armed personnel are former soldiers, veterans, survivors and special operatives. While this is likely a smaller group than what most possess, the Atlantis Security Force has much better arms and armor than anybody else - as their objective is to maximize damage and minimize casualties among their own personnel.

History:

Atlantis Group was started by the end of World War Three and gained traction near the beginning of World War Four - when the world was consumed in nuclear war, global terrorism that was supported and supplied by both sides, biological-chemical warfare against major cities and populations and global warming that raised sea-levels and made the weather patterns worse with each passing year.

The culmination of World War Three, left much of the world and it's sides devastated in terms of population and capability. World War Four that followed was the basic attempts of a dead man, trying to keep itself alive - despite that, many among the intellectual elite had been disgusted at what happened. As many of them had been forced to construct more and more lethal ways of killing the enemy - to the point, that when the dust settled down from the low-scale nuclear bombardment - the projection stated, that almost 85% of the ozone layer had been damaged beyond repair and the rest would slowly dissipate over the decade.

The continued ignorance, warnings against warfare and simply political greed convinced many to simply stop and refuse to serve their countries. While after the war, many of the governments had fallen to popular uprising the damage had been done. As many of the intellectuals had grown very disgusted by both the greed of the political elite and also of the ignorant mass. This was further endorsed, when the Atlantis Group was established by Doctor John Vindaloo.

Namely John Vindaloo, had been an Indian-American, whose research had lead into many breakthroughs in the field of energy and energy production - although most of that had been focused into warfare and not trying to help the civilian industry and to stop the mad fighting. Afterwards, John Vindaloo had been the first to cry against the US Government and what he declared monsterous ways - while it meant, his commission as a Senior Researcher was terminated, by that point the population itself was rising up against the government.

After World War Three and the rather cynical option of survival - he assembled, many of the scientists and engineers of the world, into a unified group. As they namely tried and hoped to establish a colony underwater - instead of dying outside or in a vault. Since while the ozone layer was destroyed and UV bombardment would follow onto the planet - the magnetic field and most of the atmosphere remained intact, and would keep the vast oceans of Earth from disappearing.

Their funding was provided by many of the old nobility of Europe - namely the monarchs, dukes and princes - whom also desired a way to save themselves, that didn't involve suffering a slow burn on the surface of the planet. Although, when Hope' Gate opened - most of the research was turned around to develop as much of a self-sufficient system as possible on each ship.

Characters

Name: Victor Hammer

Rank/Title: Head Researcher of Energy Production

Capabilities: Victor Hammer holds a position in researching improved energy production, being also Chairman of the Atlantis Group and also trained in psychology - capable of manipulating and playing around with people, without them realizing.

Background: Victor Hammer had been working for the European Research Agency, in trying to wane-off their dependence of foreign oil. While breakthroughs were achieved, the 'cost' for implementing was deemed 'too high' and war was deemed to be a better answer - than self-improvement. As such, Victor Hammer was forced to work on utilizing his research in developing laser-based weaponry and microwave emitters. After the war, he joined Atlantis Group and helped turn it from a small group of rebellious scientists into a technocratic power.

Name: Yuna Mikayi

Rank/Title: Head of the Genetic Research Department

Capabilities: Yuna Mikayi was considered a prodigy and upcoming scientist in the Global Community - namely she was considered the best woman, in trying to fight and help cure the numerous ailments of the human condition. Although, not even her ability was able to eliminate the human notion of greed, fear and self-treachery. Despite her meek appearance, she is considered the leading expert in genetic research and also genetic manipulation.

Background: Yuna Mikayi was born in Japan to a rather prestigious and wealthy family, whom helped support and improve her gifts and intelligence. Yuna would end up graduating highschool at the age of fifteen and would rapidly move and graduate in the numerous universities around the world. When World War Three broke out, her research was one part that was utilized in developing horrendous chemical and biological weapons. Atlantis Group helped evacuate Yuna Mikayi and her family from Japan, after the entire country collapsed into anarchy and was slowly swallowed by the sea.

Nice, accepted.

[Wildman13]

Ok now that we have a bit of people here I would like to know what kind of map you guys might like for the new world.
@Jangel13@NecroKnight@SantosGabriel77

BIG CREDITS TO THE CREATORS OF THESE

[Jangel13]

@Wildman13

First off I created a map? Secondly I would prefer the first it's so much more varied and would allow for many territorial disputes rather then the second one

[Wildman13]

@Jangel13 Oh I have made a mistake, sorry about that and ok we have one vote for the first one.

[NecroKnight]

@Wildman13

First one.

[Wildman13]

@NecroKnight@Jangel13@SantosGabriel77

Nice two votes for the first one also it seems like we are gonna be a small group is that ok with you guys?

[NecroKnight]

@Wildman13

I'd think so.

[6slyboy6]

@Wildman13 Eyh, the team is back at it again! This time I'll stay for sure. Part for nostalgic value, part for catching it before it was already knee deep in action.

Be posting muh sheet soon.

So then. When we started the fun?

[6slyboy6]

I did my best. Spent hours writing again. I really shouldn't.

My Nation Sheet

Mare Delfino

How you survived: Survive? That's a good joke. We thrived on the wars. Everybody needs PMCs now and then for the work they cannot do, and when there is war, you can be sure that we'll have plenty of jobs. We took to the seas early which saved us from a lot of the chaos that was going on around the world. By the second war we have grown enough that we could feed and arms ourselves without the need of others, and we wouldn't be bothered by anyone on international waters. Now that the gates have been discovered, we have the perfect opportunity to begin our trade yet again on a different world and make a big buck.

Ships:

Pelorus Jack - The flagship of the fleet, the Jack is a heavely modified Kiev-class "heavy aviation cruiser", which has already undergone several changes in ownership. It's latest one was it's purchase by the Mare Delfino, which is where it serves currently. Refurbished to be a mobile operations center, the superstructure has been expanded slightly to allow the mounting of more modern sensory equipment, and to make space for a sizeable hydroponics facility. Otherwise, the flight deck has been left pretty much untouched since there was no need for expansion, and it's 2 dual purpose gun mounts have been replaced with 4 RAM missile system. Since it serves as a home base and flagship for the Mare Delfino, it has several distinct modules: The forementioned hydroponics, a sizeable workshop that takes up most of the internal hangar which can manufacture small arms and other related equipment, and service aircraft and other vehicles with tools and materials produced in-house. The cannibalized aircraft hangar is a shy image of it's former self, but it houses most of the Mare Delfino's equipment and vehicles. Beside the workshop, a small recycling facility handles the trash created by the crew and repurposes most materials to allow for several months of sustained sea travel. Finally, the original steam boilers of the ship have been replaced with a license built A1B nuclear reactor, which now provides the electricity for the hulking beast of a ship.

Risso - A repurposed container ship, the Risso is a ship nearly the size of the Jack. With plenty of space on it's deck, it has been heavely repurposed to fill the needs of the fleet while on the ocean. She is equipped with a large farmspace, hydropnics facility and a small ranch where pigs and chickens are kept. Added superstructure runs along the entire ship in the form of an elevated platform made of cargo container that separates the greenhouses. Behind the bridge the remaining area was left untouched and it serves it's original purpose of storing cargo for the fleet. Below the deck lies most of her engineering, and a small prodcution facility where food is canned or refrigerated for future use. Fuel for the other ships is stored inside a large fuel tank at the front of the ship. She might not look much, but the Risso is an important logistical part of the fleet, where life never ceases to slow down. Most civilians and off duty crewman work here day and night.

Dusky - A former Russian icebreaker vessel which retained most of it's original functionality. The vessel is already suited for long range travel and can house many people. Most of the soldiers and engineering crew reside here. There are dedicated relaxation areas here which serve to ease the sailors who are off rotation from the Pelorus Jack or Orca. Most of the ship serves the one purpose of feeding and entertaining members of the Mare Delfino, as well as housing a small number of related families who work as the only civilian crew members aboard all four ships in utility roles such as janitors and chefs.

Orca - A Zubr class LCAC, the Orca is a ship you wouldn't expect in a fleet. Technically a hovercraft, it usually rests in tow behind the Risso, unassumingly floating on the water. But at a moment's notice, the Orca can escort the fleet at an unprecedented speed: cruising atop the water near 60 knots, it is twice as fast as most potential naval threats, and can deploy quickly to respond and deter agressors. It features a large inside hangar bay which is what the Mare Delfino use for transporting their away teams and hauling supplies to the fleet.

Technology:

The Mare Delfino aren't going to revolutionise the world with some advanced technological discovery. However they do know how to make good weapons. A variety of domestically produced guns and equipments bolster their arsenal, known for their reliability and effectiveness. There is a simple mindset for the fleet: create what you can, take care of what you cannot. Over the years the fleet has gotten exceptionally good at doing repairs on large vessels and vehicles, and the structurally sound hull of the age old Pelorus Jack stands as a testament. From guns to light vehicles almost anything can be produced in the workshop of the Jack using their own materials and machines, and as long as necessary resources are avaible, there isn't much that cannot be built there.

Military might:

Since the Mare Delfino isn't associated with anyone, and has less focus on all that "saving mankind" and more on that "making fat dosh" and "surviving", their military presence is more than what you'd expect of other fleets who ferry thousands of settlers. A measely 238 soldiers make up the fleet's core defensive and offensive force, but they are well equipped and full of fighting spirits. This might seem like a lot, but since the entire fleet is so small, there is a tight bond between the soldiers. Having sat out the 4th World War, but benefitting from both the 3rd and 4th, there is plenty of experience to go around. Salvaging was the name of the game when everybody else was about surviving. Thought the Long Fare was a lot of things apart from pleasant, it did help to restock the wounded arsenal of the fleet. Around the mediterranian, along with many other tidbits of weaponary and loads of supplies, the fleet has looted a Namer APC, 3 BTR-90s, a BTR-90 Krymsk and a VBM Freccia IFV. Another interesting find was a disabled M60 patton they found in Syria which is currently a static placeholder inside the workshop, with no means of repair. A similarly ill fated italian MQ-1 was picked up, and thought it has been restorted to working order, it lacks any armanents. Thought no more salvagable ground vehicles were found later in the war, when combat became more devastating than before, there were other encounters. A distress call from the Admiral Kuznetsov resulted in the salvaging of an operational Mig 29K. Near the coasts of Indonesia, the fleet came across a recently downed JH-7 floating on the sea, abandoned by it's operator, which was quickly returned to the flight deck, and then repaired with spare equipment. The final acquisition of importance was near the west coast of the US. They repaired downed Z-9 that was heavely damaged, but after cannibalizing parts from others crafts they managed to get it back to working order.

For a quick recap of vehicles:
- 3+1 BTR 90
- Namer APC
- VBM Freccia IFV
- M60 Patton (crippled)
- MQ-1 Predator
- Z-9 Transport Helicopter
- Mig 29K
- JH-7

History:

Back in the 20th century, when the Soviet Union disbanded, some ingenious soviet soldiers had the idea of starting a PMC. However the new laws and geopolitical situation didn't allow for such a thing. They travelled to Italy, a country not known for it's military might, and bought up a small crumbling company: the Mare Delfino. They left the name unchanged for a variety of reasons, including having a shell company for military purchases, and began building up their operation. At the time the company was made up of around 20 men, and they mostly offered protection for different clients. Fast forwars and the 21st century saw many combats even before the 3rd and 4th world war. The Mare Delfino grew a lot off of these smaller wars, often dabbling in arms dealing and intelligence work. As the company grew, news of the Italian company spread. News began to spread about the founders of the company, and there was a fear of potential backlash if it was found out that soviet veterans aching for war were operating a PMC. This is the direct reason for the purchase of the Pelorus Jack from a chinese owner. A lot of the ship had to be refitted, but it proved to be a suitable platfrom for operations. Acquisitions of military gear were made during these times, and the Mare Delfino had a sizeable rotorcraft arsenal as well as a seaplane for scouting.

Then all hell broke out when the 3rd world war began. Through most of it, the Mare Delfino offered it's services for various sides, but it lost most of it's holding during the war. By the end, apart from the Pelorus Jack, there were no ships left in the fleet, vehicles in the hangar or aircraft on the deck. What they did have was money. So they went on to buy many assets from different sources, and amass a fleet capable of staying out of ports and still operate at full capacity. This is Azure Armada, the same fleet that now roams the seas. It was many peaceful years that followed, and the fleet flourished on the high oceans. It was during this time that the Jack was outfitted with a nuclear reactor.

The 4th world war caught the fleet in Italy, on one of the rare resupply runs that they had to make yearly. At first nobody thought people would be as insane as before, and the armada planned to sail to Israel and look for contract work. But the jack was stuck in drydocks for a week as the crew had to make some repair work on the hull. By the time they arrived, the middle east was a disaster zone. This marked the beginning of the "Long Fare", the fleets trip around the world during the 4th world war. They stayed for a few weeks and salvaged a variety of vehicles from the battlefields, and did a few jobs here and there, but as the situation got worse, they decided to sail back to Italy for a finaly goodbye and then leave for the high seas.

By the time they reached the ports of Sicily, the war has engulfed the area, and they were forced to continue without stopping. On their way around Sicily, they picked up a squad of Italian troopers, alnog with whom they received their VBM Freccia and MQ-1. It didn't take lnog to convince them not to go back and instead join them.

Once the fleet left Gibraltar, they decided to head south for safer waters. The decision ultimately proved to be right: the northern sea turned into a massive battlezone soon after. It was during this time that they received the distress call from the russian carrier, which had received a disabling hit. After jam packing their fastest ship with supplies, the Orca, a small group left to help whoever they could. The battle still raged on as they approached, but the carriers was seemingly left behind, sunken halfway already. With the help of some of the remaining crew of the ship, including it's captain, they ferried supplies over to the Orca alnog with the Mig 29K. After they returned to the fleet, they spent several months near the horn of africa, and visited the Antarctica a few times for respite. It seemed like this was the only peaceful palce on earth left. Then they sailed for the Indian ocean, where they spent nearly 2 years in the tropical waters, rarely having to resupply, As the war got worse, the fleet sailed out for the Pacific, during wich they had many close encounters. Ultimately, on their way tohrought the south chinese sea, they salvaged the JH-7 and helped out a few stranded souls who joined them.

By the time this ragtag bunch of international soldiers reached the west coast of the US, the war was pretty much over. They ransacked the devastated cityscape of the west coast, looking for any military gear to reuse. They spent several months cruising around the area, until taking the long route around Canda to arrive back in the Atlantic. This is where the news of the gate's opening found them, and they sailed out for the new world soon after with nothing left to loose: they stay here where nothing is left, or they could go and visit a new world with endless posibilities.

If you have any issues with the military might session, I'm happy to talk about it. Still, I feel like I striked a reasonable number of armanent into my lineup considering I don't play a nation, but a military organization.

I did my best. Spent hours writing again. I really shouldn't.

My Nation Sheet

Mare Delfino

How you survived: Survive? That's a good joke. We thrived on the wars. Everybody needs PMCs now and then for the work they cannot do, and when there is war, you can be sure that we'll have plenty of jobs. We took to the seas early which saved us from a lot of the chaos that was going on around the world. By the second war we have grown enough that we could feed and arms ourselves without the need of others, and we wouldn't be bothered by anyone on international waters. Now that the gates have been discovered, we have the perfect opportunity to begin our trade yet again on a different world and make a big buck.

Ships:

Pelorus Jack - The flagship of the fleet, the Jack is a heavely modified Kiev-class "heavy aviation cruiser", which has already undergone several changes in ownership. It's latest one was it's purchase by the Mare Delfino, which is where it serves currently. Refurbished to be a mobile operations center, the superstructure has been expanded slightly to allow the mounting of more modern sensory equipment, and to make space for a sizeable hydroponics facility. Otherwise, the flight deck has been left pretty much untouched since there was no need for expansion, and it's 2 dual purpose gun mounts have been replaced with 4 RAM missile system. Since it serves as a home base and flagship for the Mare Delfino, it has several distinct modules: The forementioned hydroponics, a sizeable workshop that takes up most of the internal hangar which can manufacture small arms and other related equipment, and service aircraft and other vehicles with tools and materials produced in-house. The cannibalized aircraft hangar is a shy image of it's former self, but it houses most of the Mare Delfino's equipment and vehicles. Beside the workshop, a small recycling facility handles the trash created by the crew and repurposes most materials to allow for several months of sustained sea travel. Finally, the original steam boilers of the ship have been replaced with a license built A1B nuclear reactor, which now provides the electricity for the hulking beast of a ship.

Risso - A repurposed container ship, the Risso is a ship nearly the size of the Jack. With plenty of space on it's deck, it has been heavely repurposed to fill the needs of the fleet while on the ocean. She is equipped with a large farmspace, hydropnics facility and a small ranch where pigs and chickens are kept. Added superstructure runs along the entire ship in the form of an elevated platform made of cargo container that separates the greenhouses. Behind the bridge the remaining area was left untouched and it serves it's original purpose of storing cargo for the fleet. Below the deck lies most of her engineering, and a small prodcution facility where food is canned or refrigerated for future use. Fuel for the other ships is stored inside a large fuel tank at the front of the ship. She might not look much, but the Risso is an important logistical part of the fleet, where life never ceases to slow down. Most civilians and off duty crewman work here day and night.

Dusky - A former Russian icebreaker vessel which retained most of it's original functionality. The vessel is already suited for long range travel and can house many people. Most of the soldiers and engineering crew reside here. There are dedicated relaxation areas here which serve to ease the sailors who are off rotation from the Pelorus Jack or Orca. Most of the ship serves the one purpose of feeding and entertaining members of the Mare Delfino, as well as housing a small number of related families who work as the only civilian crew members aboard all four ships in utility roles such as janitors and chefs.

Orca - A Zubr class LCAC, the Orca is a ship you wouldn't expect in a fleet. Technically a hovercraft, it usually rests in tow behind the Risso, unassumingly floating on the water. But at a moment's notice, the Orca can escort the fleet at an unprecedented speed: cruising atop the water near 60 knots, it is twice as fast as most potential naval threats, and can deploy quickly to respond and deter agressors. It features a large inside hangar bay which is what the Mare Delfino use for transporting their away teams and hauling supplies to the fleet.

Technology:

The Mare Delfino aren't going to revolutionise the world with some advanced technological discovery. However they do know how to make good weapons. A variety of domestically produced guns and equipments bolster their arsenal, known for their reliability and effectiveness. There is a simple mindset for the fleet: create what you can, take care of what you cannot. Over the years the fleet has gotten exceptionally good at doing repairs on large vessels and vehicles, and the structurally sound hull of the age old Pelorus Jack stands as a testament. From guns to light vehicles almost anything can be produced in the workshop of the Jack using their own materials and machines, and as long as necessary resources are avaible, there isn't much that cannot be built there.

Military might:

Since the Mare Delfino isn't associated with anyone, and has less focus on all that "saving mankind" and more on that "making fat dosh" and "surviving", their military presence is more than what you'd expect of other fleets who ferry thousands of settlers. A measely 238 soldiers make up the fleet's core defensive and offensive force, but they are well equipped and full of fighting spirits. This might seem like a lot, but since the entire fleet is so small, there is a tight bond between the soldiers. Having sat out the 4th World War, but benefitting from both the 3rd and 4th, there is plenty of experience to go around. Salvaging was the name of the game when everybody else was about surviving. Thought the Long Fare was a lot of things apart from pleasant, it did help to restock the wounded arsenal of the fleet. Around the mediterranian, along with many other tidbits of weaponary and loads of supplies, the fleet has looted a Namer APC, 3 BTR-90s, a BTR-90 Krymsk and a VBM Freccia IFV. Another interesting find was a disabled M60 patton they found in Syria which is currently a static placeholder inside the workshop, with no means of repair. A similarly ill fated italian MQ-1 was picked up, and thought it has been restorted to working order, it lacks any armanents. Thought no more salvagable ground vehicles were found later in the war, when combat became more devastating than before, there were other encounters. A distress call from the Admiral Kuznetsov resulted in the salvaging of an operational Mig 29K. Near the coasts of Indonesia, the fleet came across a recently downed JH-7 floating on the sea, abandoned by it's operator, which was quickly returned to the flight deck, and then repaired with spare equipment. The final acquisition of importance was near the west coast of the US. They repaired downed Z-9 that was heavely damaged, but after cannibalizing parts from others crafts they managed to get it back to working order.

For a quick recap of vehicles:
- 3+1 BTR 90
- Namer APC
- VBM Freccia IFV
- M60 Patton (crippled)
- MQ-1 Predator
- Z-9 Transport Helicopter
- Mig 29K
- JH-7

History:

Back in the 20th century, when the Soviet Union disbanded, some ingenious soviet soldiers had the idea of starting a PMC. However the new laws and geopolitical situation didn't allow for such a thing. They travelled to Italy, a country not known for it's military might, and bought up a small crumbling company: the Mare Delfino. They left the name unchanged for a variety of reasons, including having a shell company for military purchases, and began building up their operation. At the time the company was made up of around 20 men, and they mostly offered protection for different clients. Fast forwars and the 21st century saw many combats even before the 3rd and 4th world war. The Mare Delfino grew a lot off of these smaller wars, often dabbling in arms dealing and intelligence work. As the company grew, news of the Italian company spread. News began to spread about the founders of the company, and there was a fear of potential backlash if it was found out that soviet veterans aching for war were operating a PMC. This is the direct reason for the purchase of the Pelorus Jack from a chinese owner. A lot of the ship had to be refitted, but it proved to be a suitable platfrom for operations. Acquisitions of military gear were made during these times, and the Mare Delfino had a sizeable rotorcraft arsenal as well as a seaplane for scouting.

Then all hell broke out when the 3rd world war began. Through most of it, the Mare Delfino offered it's services for various sides, but it lost most of it's holding during the war. By the end, apart from the Pelorus Jack, there were no ships left in the fleet, vehicles in the hangar or aircraft on the deck. What they did have was money. So they went on to buy many assets from different sources, and amass a fleet capable of staying out of ports and still operate at full capacity. This is Azure Armada, the same fleet that now roams the seas. It was many peaceful years that followed, and the fleet flourished on the high oceans. It was during this time that the Jack was outfitted with a nuclear reactor.

The 4th world war caught the fleet in Italy, on one of the rare resupply runs that they had to make yearly. At first nobody thought people would be as insane as before, and the armada planned to sail to Israel and look for contract work. But the jack was stuck in drydocks for a week as the crew had to make some repair work on the hull. By the time they arrived, the middle east was a disaster zone. This marked the beginning of the "Long Fare", the fleets trip around the world during the 4th world war. They stayed for a few weeks and salvaged a variety of vehicles from the battlefields, and did a few jobs here and there, but as the situation got worse, they decided to sail back to Italy for a finaly goodbye and then leave for the high seas.

By the time they reached the ports of Sicily, the war has engulfed the area, and they were forced to continue without stopping. On their way around Sicily, they picked up a squad of Italian troopers, alnog with whom they received their VBM Freccia and MQ-1. It didn't take lnog to convince them not to go back and instead join them.

Once the fleet left Gibraltar, they decided to head south for safer waters. The decision ultimately proved to be right: the northern sea turned into a massive battlezone soon after. It was during this time that they received the distress call from the russian carrier, which had received a disabling hit. After jam packing their fastest ship with supplies, the Orca, a small group left to help whoever they could. The battle still raged on as they approached, but the carriers was seemingly left behind, sunken halfway already. With the help of some of the remaining crew of the ship, including it's captain, they ferried supplies over to the Orca alnog with the Mig 29K. After they returned to the fleet, they spent several months near the horn of africa, and visited the Antarctica a few times for respite. It seemed like this was the only peaceful palce on earth left. Then they sailed for the Indian ocean, where they spent nearly 2 years in the tropical waters, rarely having to resupply, As the war got worse, the fleet sailed out for the Pacific, during wich they had many close encounters. Ultimately, on their way tohrought the south chinese sea, they salvaged the JH-7 and helped out a few stranded souls who joined them.

If you have any issues with the military might session, I'm happy to talk about it. Still, I feel like I striked a reasonable number of armanent into my lineup considering I don't play a nation, but a military organization.

@6slyboy6

They definitely have a place in the roleplay, well organized but having a small population is balanced enough for me so yeah they are approved and welcome to the roleplay.

@Wildman13

So then. When we started the fun?

@NecroKnight

About a second or so still waiting for yhe others but, I'll start making the roleplay page.
