Small Unit Methods

#1



[indent] Small Unit Methods[/indent]





Information

Been a while since the last guide! This one is expanding upon the basic that you can see in THIS thread. This guide is focusing a little bit more on Small Unit methods! We'll go through Ambushing, Recon, Making a base and how to act as a small unit!

Now you might say "Hey Infantry-nerd, why a small unit? I want to be a big unit!" Obviously because there aren't enough military RPers around to make a big unit! Last time I saw a proper "Platoon" on SWTOR was 2017, and that was a very small platoon at best! You can of course though RP as being a squad part of a Platoon, if you now do RP Infantry Grunts and want the Guns N Glory.

Small Units are not the type of guys who will be sweeping through an entire city, attack, hold the line or do any of the classic world war movies action. You don't do that because a Small Unit will in most cases operate very near or behind enemy "lines" and you will not have reinforcements. If you get the order to attack it's going to be something very Quick such as Sniping an Officer. If your smaller unit do make contact, that firefight is your great battle. You need to win this, and winning is really just to make it out alive and not be chased. This is to take out as many enemies as you can in a matter of a minute to the point they have noone left to chase you and you have enough time to make some distance. From there on, your job is to retreat -- And Command will not give you the order to continue the mission if you've been exposed.

A small unit is a Squad. 5-10 troops will do.

Ongoing Crisis
War in the Northern Territories


The Balance of Power in the Northern Territories!

"The Northern Territories shift under the weight of changing times. With the passage of the ICOT, internal strife amongst Imperial Forces in the North has lessened - though never abated. Although the momentum of the Republic has not yet been met entirely, fortification efforts and victorious naval campaigns have evened the footing at least slightly. Eyes align on systems such as Vykos, Nam'ta and Orsus to see how this proceeds.."



((OOC: The Balance of Power system has begun! Missions that relate to grand changes in the Northern Territories will have an impact on the balance of power shown above, with the end result being that the balance of power's state at the start of the next war arc will determine how strong the Republic will be in the area. The balance of power can be pushing in our favour with bigger scale events aimed at taking the Republic down or fortifying ourselves in the North. This can be achieved through Operations, Adventures and Guild Events. The blue represents the Republic, and the Empire is red! This is organised by the Guild Team, so please direct OOC questions to them.))
