The Academy of Evil

Girliath was listening in the Auditorium as well. However, she was alone and isolated from the others as she observed the headmastress's speech while leaning on the wall on the other side of the room. However, her appearance was unmistakable as she appeared slightly taller on average from a normal teen and in a very pink outfit. She looked like she was both nervous and excited at the same time as she propped herself up against the wall.

When the dismissal order arrived however, the blond teenager in pink calmly got off of propping on the side of the wall and headed to find out just exactly where her room would be. Either she had already stored her belongings someplace, or they were outside the Auditorium. She began to slowly walk towards the others with her sandals on. She then went outside the auditorium to find her backpack and pink duffel bag up against the wall out of the way. She picked them up and put them on before she began to wander around to find the exact location of her room.

Okay, so like a shot gun and maybe a sniper rifle?

Question, will we be using modern day armaments and equipment or:

War is hell, a possible realistic Vietnam War roleplay? (+18)

It was probably 6 Royal Australian Regiment...and the Battle for Long Tan plantation...The Kiwis sent troops to Vietnam as part of Australian deployments, Victor or Whisky Company if I recall.

I am kind of a historian about Australia's deployments to Vietnam. I'm such a geek, I have copies of the real post battle reports from Long Tan from the American National Archives. Shoot, while traveling overseas several years ago, I MET an Australian Vietnam veteran who served in 6 RAR during the war. He was shocked I knew anything about Australia deploying troops to Vietnam.

Don't forget the ANZACS had SAS in Vietnam as well...and not nearly as much firepower on tap as the U.S. forces.

Consider me interested.

@golani

Alright, we can possibly have those soldiers in this as well. (Maybe some sort of combined-operation?) I was thinking that while we have various real life sides, (like if anyone wants to be a Chinese advisor or a South Korean advisor), both sides would have to work together. (Makes sense, and worked well in Operation Overlord.) Just, if you play those guys please try to work in the roles. There probably wouldn't be some argument over who does what unless somehow orders got mixed up, but that predicament pretty much would probably not be the case that ANZACS or SAS forces would just not know the American forces nearby. It's not like in WW2 so we don't have various generals with all sorts of different orders from all the nations at once. Thus things would be well more manageable if it were the case.

Vietnam is a war that was lost at home, not in the jungles of Vietnam. Most engagements the US were involved in, they won. The US won the battles, but the NVA won the war. It was simply unpopular because the American People viewed it as a revolution between the North and the South. The US government viewed it as a war of containment regarding communism; this is following the McCarthy era.

Honestly, bud. I would prefer US troops. You pick the fight, It is your RP. Do you want all of us in one squad (difficult) to manage and always seems to fail, or would you prefer we all take on different roles in very different organizations? That would hinder collaboration, but enable folks to employ much more creativity in their writing.

@Gunther

That's true.

Sort of the second, mostly because everyone in a single squad would make it sort of a Band of Brothers story, and I had the idea of playing both sides to feel the conflict from either perspectives of the war. As far as collaboration, you're really supposed to play who you pick. Americans act like Americans did, Vietnamese at like they did, if you're South Korean you're there for support, ect. This isn't going to be a "I can be a hero and save the day" story, so as far as collaboration issues there's not many things one can get wrong, unless they want to be an arse and totally mock history. (Which will be dealt with soon after for trying to ruin a historical RP where people fought and died for their perspective countries and ideals in history.) So, I was thinking of having limited freedom, as long as people play their roles.

Depending on the time period, SOG is still running Shining Brass, and getting more blatant about the air campaign in Laos. Could also play an LDNN or Montagnard Mike Force advisor in addition to one of the RT's.

I'm not sure that Vietnam was ever a 'fair' fight in terms of firepower parity, but it was a very frustrating fight in that the enemy dictated the operational tempo in many cases. But if you're looking for a different perspective, I'd argue for the early 1960's before the US massively deployed combat troops there. You had a very different war where the capability of the enemy led to that deployment in the first place.

I'm good with whatever path it takes though.

@HeySeuss

I see.

I know that, I really meant "relatively fair". I mean, this is not a war the west won, despite all the firepower it brought into the war. Yeah, I could also go for pre-involvement, or at least to where there's relatively few G.I's on the ground. Then again, it all depends on how many want to play for each side.

Interested. @Jaredthefox92If you have any questions about this period in American history, please ask.

Late in the war, US soldiers were wearing subdued patches, the M203 Grenade Launcher had replaced the iconic M79 and the US Army Rifle squad had reduced in size from 11 men to 9. The USMC rifle squad had reduced in size from 16 to 13. The Automatic Rifleman carried an M16A1 rifle with a bipod and extra ammo; firing on full auto all the time. You cannot say drug use was exactly rampant because in those units where esprit d'corp and strong leadership were available, drug use was non-existent. I know the US media likes to portray all americans serving in Southeast Asia as being drug users, but that is simply not true. This may have been true in REMF units, but not as much in front line combat units. REMF = Rear Echelon Mother Fuckers or POG = Personnel Other than Grunts.

@Gunther

Okay, I'm fairly knowledgeable about some things, but I won't forget to ask when needed.

I see, well I was considering we implement some balance changes. Maybe an airstrike or two happens with the plot or something, just to even out the battles a bit. Then again, it depends on how many people want to play the communist aligned forces in the roleplay.If everyone wants to be the western alliances then things will be different.

HALO: Task Force Conglomerate

@Jaredthefox92

If you wanted to, sure!

@Lauder

Okay, I can play either.

HALO: Task Force Conglomerate

@Jaredthefox92

Unfortunately I will not allow play of the San’Shyuum, otherwise known as the Prophets, due to the fact most of their species has been killed as a result of the flood invading High Charity and the fact that it is assumed they took the engineers to go into hiding to avoid persecution from the elites.

@Lauder

Okay, so Brute or Elite then?

HALO: Task Force Conglomerate

@Jaredthefox92

Assuming I understand your question; Task Force Conglomerate is open to all the species that I had listed above and any species may fulfill any role within the task force, though ONI knows that each species have their strengths and weaknesses so they will likely assign positions based on skill and species.

@Rtron

Glad to have you on board, friend!

@Lauder

Okay, I can either be a Spartan, a Brute, or an Elite. (I always play humans, so aliens would be fun now. Although I don't know how to play a Grunt.I could also try to be a prophet. I know how to play the evil confessor type as well, so prophet also works.)
