[OOC] Task Force Echo (A Special Forces RP)

[Rhona W]

Fair warning all. Dima is a Lover. And a Fighter. Ugh... He's a loving fighter? Either way! You're probably gonna get hit on. One way or another. xD Especially your character @Silverwind Blade. My god is he a beautiful man.

@Rain

Haha, I hadn't thought about Richards' sexuality or interests. As he's a pretty laid back guy, and has a sense of humour, I expect he'll jokingly flirt back and be good-natured and quietly amused by the whole thing.

I'm loving that we have a lot of characters with really strong personalities and identities this time around. I'm looking forward to the social interactions as much as the combat and operations.

I cannot wait to see Merlin yell at something/someone. Holy shit, it's going to be biblical, the man yelling requires earplugs to endure :D
Apart from Silverwind, it's unlikely you'll know what a West Country accent is, so my description in the CS that I have to stand by if you want a vague idea of what it's like. He's a cider-loving motherfucker too.

I can say that there will be down time, where you can mesh and work your characters out, similar to what there was in Lima- perhaps not towards the end, where shit basically became a lot more frantic, but there will be points where you can take a breather and let your characters mingle off operations.

all this beard love

and there's our girls :(

[StrangerDanger]

@QueenOfTheBee, Your Olivia will get plenty of love, promise.

[FourtyTwo]

Beard love. Queen knows why I say that, because I swear, it's going to be fucking hilarious.

[StrangerDanger]

@kingkonrad, I'm warning you right now. Dima may be the first to get Merlin to scream and not for the reasons you'd expect.

Done bloody done! I'm good and ready all prepped and good to go.

I don't find it at all surprising that everyone made their characters pretty much max rank. Besides myself.

[Antediluvixen]

@QueenOfTheBee We have boobs though.

Boobs > Beards.

@Monochromatic Rainbow

TEAM BOOBIES!!!

[StrangerDanger]

Boobs and beards. Am I in heaven?

[Antediluvixen]

@QueenOfTheBee Best team.

@BigPapaBelial

I mean, Sergeant is a fairly common rank to hold in the normal military ranks let alone the special operations community. Not just that, most of us are past 25. Naturally we'd have higher ranks to reflect our time and experience.

@QueenOfTheBee@Monochromatic Rainbow
As a young'un nerd, I must say...
Beards are much more unreachable than boobs.
I would know, because I've messed with someone's beard once, but never the other b-word.

@BigPapaBelial
I have a higher rank than most :b

Alright, everyone!
I have some... questions?! or something to bring up
A) Why don't we have interchangable ammo? I mean, I'm gonna change my HK417 to the HK416, so that if I go down, or if someone else goes down, I can use their ammo.

B) Why is our only Marksmen- our best shot, the person who's usually at the BACK of the squad- also a Pointman, especially without any real pointman-kit?

C) Not to sound Hunger-Games-y or nothin', but what if military technology companies decided to dip a hand into the unit- perhaps being some of the people pushing for this specific anti-terrorist squad- and rig up one of us for propoganda purposes? I mean, they get exclusive footage of an international team from all over working together as a unit, likely with some cutting-edge stuff thrown in the mix- especially with my character. The military wouldn't have to pay the shitton for my character's headset, because it's being used to get Lockheed Martin some gold, which they can use to demonstrate to buyers, and generate popularity and sell stocks or somesuch. The US Military would be fine with it because they don't gotta pay; the UN'd be fine with it because the anti-terrorist unit don't cost so much, or actually GENERATES some money for them.

Or something. Just the general idea is what I'm saying, and i'm tossing it in here to see any reactions.

[BigPapaBelial]

By "max rank" I meant the rank we were all allowed to give our characters at sign up. I just find it a little amusing.

I decided to pick a relatively low rank, just for varieties sake.

@Rain

no you're in the weird part of town

@WilsonTurner

Wouldn't you mean much less unreachable?
Also I've messed with both so... idk how they're unreachable.

I've got my own boobs regardless~

@WilsonTurner

I was going to use 5.56 but I then realized the AK-102 wouldn't use STANAG magazines so I swapped it out for the AK-12 in 5.45x39 to facilitate ammo interchangeability with the other Russian on the team.

[Bee]

@WilsonTurner wouldn't that make boobs unattainable since you were able to touch a beard?

also, roles DO differ for every operation. Your character could take the Pointman role while mine drops back and acts as Marksman. I interpret that as sort of a swingman sorta thing, you feel? I'd like to think the ACR loadout would be the pointman loadout.

Point
and
um
k?
I don't have my own, I'm a guy, see.
An extrovert that's so afraid of other people that he's an eccentric introvert.

@QueenOfTheBee

Aye, I put in the wrong words.

And that makes some sense, except you're the best shot on our team. Regardless, I don't think we want our best shot at the most risk. Granted, the same could be the said for my rather higher ranked, more expensive and tactically valuable person.

[Bee]

@WilsonTurner i think you're low-key saying something >:I
