I'm on the First page, so maybe he purposely skipped me and Kadzar

[Dwarmin]

All right, this is going to be the OOC character thread. Use this for...OOC stuff. All the Actions will be in the game thread, which I will make soon

Note, I rolled D6's on your training choices, so that will explain some of the randomness you'll see.

Also, I'll add the training for riflemen soon. All you guys just jumped in so fast I didn't have time to write up everything beforehand...and cram writing for an hour straight is tiring.

I have the feeling that I am either going to die last, first, or die saving everyones ass for some reason (That or Phantom shoots me in the head from behind.)

[Luke_Prowler]

All things considered, Phantom shooting someone in the back of the head is worryingly likely.

[Taricus]

Not as likely as me doing so.

[Phantom]

I prefer the back of the head! The only thing worse than a hostile target is a hostile target that is looking at you.


That or a very disturbing target that I do not trust.

Any luck with writing the grunt training?

Grunt Training

Rico Juanez (Kadzar)
Roger Blackwater (LukeProwler)

You didn't even get a meeting with the base supervisor, instead you were shoved into a cramped meeting hall with two hundred other people and told where you going to go...

Spoiler: training (click to show/hide)

 
For your first year of training, you were sent to Planet Hex to toughen you up. That it did. What did you volunteer for?

A. Long Patrol: Deciding to take the hard job, you volunteered for patrol duty, traversing the deadly surface of Hex and becoming acclimated to it's rigors. Hex is notorious for it's caverns and canyons, and when you got out of there alive, you were a crack shot with the close in weapons-knives, pistols and shotguns. You also built up your endurance.

B. Picket Lines: There was plenty of thing to shoot at...most of them were trying to eat you, so it was easy. You ended up on the base picket, taking potshots at whatever ugly Bug poked his nose toward you. When you got out of Hex alive, you were a crack shot with the rifle.

Earthgov sent you to Earths Moon next, to practice armor and weapon drills-a vacation, really. What was your best accomplishment while you were there?

A. Qualified for Class-B Advanced Armor: The newest shiny from Achilles Labs, the Class B "Gehennon" Armor is a total improvement from the previous version, which is standard among Earthgov forces. It's complicated as well-they only let people who put time into learning it's in and outs wear it. You took to it like a glove-it's light and stronger, and it's all yours!

B. Qualified for Plasma Weaponry Testing: Plasma Weapons are also new-untested, but the potential is there to finally replace both conventional firearms and lasers as Earthgovs standard-they are extremely accurate and powerful, at the expense of ammunition constraints-an easy trade off. You volunteered for testing, and showed enough skill to be allowed to use them in combat.

Your third year had you sent to Planet Ozark to help supress the rebellion. No luck this year...whats the biggest operation you took part in?

A. Operation Rolling Thunder: You were assigned to patrol duty in sprawling city of Tangier, which was rife with Rebels. A hard job-the Rebels freely used civilians as Human shield to preform bombings and attacks on your squad, only to vanish as soon as anyone fired back at them-dodging ambushes and roadside bombs for a few months refined your combat skills-especially with short arms, an advantage in an urban enviroment, and it gave you a sixth sense for danger. You learned a little bit about explosives-as in, how to disarm them.

B. Operation Blackguard: You were assigned to the campaign to retake Rebel Held mountain fortresses in the Dawning range. You spent most of your time poking around abandoned bases-it seemed they were always one step ahead of you-or holding off desperate ambushes when you did find someone. You spent long times roughing it with little support. After a few months, you had become one tough son of a bitch-good with long guns-and had even picked up a few tricks when calling in for artillery and airstrikes.

Hehe, grunt training, it sucks.

[adwarf]

Out of 200 only 2 remain that sounds about right 

[vagel7]

Out of 200 only 2 remain that sounds about right 

Grunt training is about giving them basic and throwing them in the heat of battle.

I know thats why I prefer specialized training to that.

[Ahra]

will be on a vacation for the next 4 days, just heal the most injured guy.
