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
The Republic Marches amongst lit fires!


The Balance of Power in the Northern Territories!

After the Republic liberated Pollus from Imperial influence, Anx Minor was devastated by I.T.E.C.’s nuclear mining and lingering Sith presence, while the Kesmere Ridge remained largely intact, enabling the Republic to steadily infiltrate and influence its powerful corporate systems. On Tertiary Kesmere—the largest hub—three megacorporations dominated: Oriyn Prospecting discovered resources, Kessdyne Resource Group extracted and profited from the capital Vethar’s Reach and its Ciivic Council, and Haeltor Maritime handled off-world transport. Beneath the façade of economic growth, however, The Republic secretly aimed to turn Tertiary Kesmere into a strategic launch point for operations in the Northern Territories. Contacted by Moff Vayen Korr, the Marshalling Prefect of the Northern Territories, the Pentarchy of House Horuset took on the job of delaying the Republic's actions. With preperations laid it culminated in a strike planetside lasting only two weeks to ignite anarchy. Acting covertly to sabotage Republic progress, they destabilized the region, leaving chaos in their wake as corporations collapsed under their own deception and local anti-corporate guilds rose up—unaware of the Empire’s hidden hand behind the unrest...

((OOC: 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 will determine how strong the Republic will be in given areas 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.))
