CMF - Another WIP

[LeoMarr]

OTA Are supposed to be rarely seen. They aren't for day-day operations.

OTA Are supposed to be rarely seen. They aren't for day-day operations.

The point being there'll be even more rarely seen than now.

[Kom????k]

Or perhaps, not have them at all, and instead spent time on making the cca better than adding stuff that makes people complain

I would say, Better the CCA, once all that is good, Then take a look at this Idea.

[Reimer]

So, the conscripts will be used sort of like this?

Conscripts are being called in to, say, assault a building in S6
Conscrips enter their room in the nexus (Spare room)
Conscripts are told of their mission and each member's place in it.
Conscripts are handed (very) light kevlar vests and captured contraband weapons, along with a small amount of ammo per person.
Conscripts exit nexus, and attack the point of interest.
Rebels engage thed conscripts, both sides lose men.
A small squad of regular CCA units arrives, mops up the rest of the rebels.
CCA squad escorts conscripts back to nexus, where they are stripped of weapons, ammo, and armor, and are given a treat (tokens, food, perhaps a medal)

This is APEXs/UNIONs job...

No joke if we get this APEX would have no point what so ever.
No offence to the APEX guys but you're useless enough already and with this you might as well merge in to UNION because this is APEXs job to go in where OTA isn't needed but the normal CCA can't handle.

[Reimer]

Also guys, I think a firefight between CMF and rebels would be more fun than OTA coming in and S2King everything in sight and vaporizing everyone that tries to run.

And it would not kill APEX, in fact, it would do the opposite, as APEX would control the CMF and be in charge of following through with trained units when the CMF has done their operation, and escorting CMF to and from the target.

I think if we were to have "conscripts" that they would have to be extremely good roleplayers.  S2M more then the civil protection, still role play fearing the combine (of course >.>) Have sympathy/empathy(because they're not augmented) And not act like they are the civil protection.  Even though they were cut from the game I still think this is a good idea and should stick with the canon.  In the game they probably would have looked stupid and they probably cut them to make the game look better or simply because of money, who knows.  But the idea sounds solid.

I just wish I could apply, I don't player HL2RP nearly enough to have good loyalist status/anyone seeing my roleplay there >.>

Leo, the only thing I'd like to know now is how the IC applications go down. If there aren't forum applications then we have to be a mite concerned about minges getting into the ranks of the CMF, which would be the *worst* thing that could happen.

If a minge were let in (Very unlikely considering how hard it will be to get in) and he/she were minging, that minge would probably be amputated at the first signs of rebellion. (Or mingeness, in this case.)

[LeoMarr]

IC Applications do mean that you need to have an above average Roleplaying ability. It doesn't mean, Answer 3 questions and get a whitelist.
It will take a few days of RPing with myself/others to get in.

I'm not understanding how this can be a good idea at all. Why would the CCA bother wasting their time with "canon fodder" citizens when the CCA are themselves canon fodder? Why would they risk giving a group of citizens weaponry and more knowledge of the inner-workings?

What are the CCA gonna think of this now? APEX is a division who's job is to deal with situations such as what you say these conscripts will deal with. They very, very rarely get to deal with such situations and this will cut that number down to less than a handful a month, if even that. Whilst you can take the high-horse approach and say, "Oh they shouldn't just want to shoot all the time", you cannot deny that combat is incredibly enjoyable and exhilarating for those involved.

There is simply no way that APEX will be pleased with this. And Overwatch? Overwatch's appearances are rare enough. This'll almost nullify them. Whilst the conscripts may be designed to run in and die, just weaken the enemy a little, do you really think that's what'll happen? Why would the CCA want loyalist citizens to be taking up arms instead of spreading their influence amongst the community?

It just seems like too much of a risk, both for the CCA and for Catalyst Gaming. This will satisfy the 12 players involved and no one else. Anyone who disagrees with my statement just there, I'd be interested to hear your reasons.

Just my 2 cents.

[LeoMarr]

12 players and No one else? If You properly read it. It is 12 for Now. Until It is shown that it can be expanded upon.
