Krayzikk Posted June 21, 2012 Share Posted June 21, 2012 Alright, I have an important question for y'all.As any of you who have been here for any amount of time know, a while back, a player called Kalama designed the Ga-Koro Marines from the ground-up. Their history, important figures, and every little detail about their organization. Shortly thereafter, he recieved a temporary ban, and has not returned.BioBeast and I are starting the Marines (As in Ga-Koro Military) up again, more than the odd member here and there. And we feel the old organization doesn't work well with the setting of the game, nor the actual group.Would anyone here object if the setup was torn down, and rebuilt from the ground-up?Speak now, or forever hold your peace. On this eve, the thirtieth anniversary of that first colony, many are left to wonder; is the world fast approaching a breaking point?

Wotz Posted June 21, 2012 Share Posted June 21, 2012 I'd actually prefer it to be less complicated (especially the ranks). It needs someone in charge (Kotu, perhaps?), and simpler ranks, and standardised weaponry (I believe bamboo poles were settled back in MNOLG) and, and, and...Okay, I'm getting carried away here.

Krayzikk Posted June 21, 2012 Share Posted June 21, 2012 Almost nothing.Actually, I think or would be awesome if the players defined a large portion of the militaries.

Let's Henshin! Posted June 21, 2012 Share Posted June 21, 2012 Somebody make a blog post I suggest we actually start putting our minds to this. I'd recommend those of you with Military involved Characters to check it out as well. Things will go alot smoother if we have a bit of a defined idea of the forces.

Franco Posted June 21, 2012 Share Posted June 21, 2012 (edited) Question, how much of the Mata-Nuian forces have been established? We have spoken about relatively specialized squadrons in the Gukko Force, Guard, Sanctum, and Ussalry but what about the regular troops.I and KNI have jointly (and a little roughly) established five 2-squadron regiments in the Ussalry:1-Spec Ops. The Special Operations branch doesn't use ussals; unlike the other branches, it is devoted specifically to covert missions and the like. A notable member of this is Matrapolix.2-Light Cavalry. This branch of the Ussalry is armored lightly and with ussals built more with speed than endurance in mind, wielding saperka and the crossbow. The only notable member thus far is Regiment Commander Gyn Kirsug.3-Medium Cavalry. Medium Cavalry in the Ussalry wear mail coifs under plate and use the qiang, crossbow, and saperka. Their ussals are a balance of speed and endurance. The only notable members of this section are the Squadron Commanders Krovuz and Kruzov.4-Heavy Cavalry. Heavier than all regiments before them, this one has the most durable ussals-they can travel at a good pace for up to a day and then charge up to seven times assuming they are moving on flat ground. The typical armament is saperka, lance, and repeating crossbow, with other weaponry or a different choice of polearm optional. Notable members of this crew include 7th Squadron and the NPC Regiment Commander Arkom.5-Artillery. This highly specialized regiment is composed of primitive ballistae-drawers and the like. There are no notable members of this regiment as of yet.I'll get on making an entry for this.EDIT: Entry'd. I'll link when I have access to a comp that allows me to.

Krayzikk Posted June 21, 2012 Share Posted June 21, 2012 @Hubert That'd be cool.As for the Sanctum Guard, so far, I've made reference to a more militarized arm, and a more police-esque arm.

Visaru Posted June 21, 2012 Share Posted June 21, 2012 He means that we've only seen specific parts of the militaries.I'm pretty sure we've seen the entire military of each koro. Each town has a completely different sort of military.Onu Koro has the Ussalry, mainly consisting of Matoran riding Ussals.Le Koro has the Gukko force, of matoran riding Gukko birds.Ga Koro has the Ga Koro guardAnd so forth. Just because the militaries are all specialized doesn't mean that they all have average ground forces. Any more than this is basically created by us. -------------- Tarrok | Korzaa | Verak | Kirik -------------- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Krayzikk Posted June 21, 2012 Share Posted June 21, 2012 You key detectable what I mean. I meant that we know the entire mitady exists, but only in vague terms.Also, unless people disagree, we are doing away with the Kalama-centered back story for the marines. Completely. The Raiders still happened IC, but their involvement with the military's formation is gone.

However, do note that both are fairly limited in terms of number. The standards for Regiment Commander and Lieutenant Regimental are high and require people capable of beauracracy as well as commanding. And the spec ops has similarly extreme standards for its areas. [Profiles] Wisdom. Restraint. Emptiness. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
