*a phone rings*
"Hello?"
"Is this Colonel Johnston?"
"Retired."
"Not anymore, Colonel. You're being recalled to duty."
"I was wondering when you people would call. Is Russia giving you a hard time?"
"The Russians have proven more resourceful than anticipated, Colonel. They've broken through essentially all our defenses in Alaska, and the Fifth Fleet has been effectively destroyed."
"Yeah, I heard. So I guess you want me to go to Alaska?"
"Affirmative, sir. You'll command the Ninth Battalion, a joint nations task force with the objective of forcing the Russians away from there and seizing it back for America."
"You do know why I retired, don't you?"
"Well, all has been forgiven, Colonel."
"I didn't ask for your god damn forgiveness! You people got us into this mess in the first place and now you're sitting there with your pants melting and don't know what to do! That's what you get with a bunch of sycophant bureaucrats making all the decisions."
...
"Do you accept the command, Colonel?"
...
"When do I leave?"
----------
A few days ago, I learned LH has supposedly decided to quit CFC. He has left 2 great ACs running, and I plan to carry on his legacy. This is the first of 2, and the original thread is here. The original Army Men AC was based off of a video game series, where you played as plastic army men. This AC, Army Men Revival, is based off of a what-if scenario, one explored frequently.
What if Russia attacked America?
In this world, Russia-wanting more money, and with all nations' nuclear programs deactivated by the UN-invades Alaska for the oil and natural resources. You have been sent with the Ninth Battalion under Colonel Johnston to dispatch this invasion force, and to strike back. You control a squad of soldiers and equipment, and your rank determines how many troops you control.
Now, on to the good stuff.
First make a character.
Name- your name
Rank-Sergeant
GP- Amount of GP, you start with 30
CP- Your CP. The number next to your rank in the rank list is how much you have.
Primary Weapon-any gun
Secondary Weapon-Any gun
Equipment-Any item bought with GP that is NOT a gun
Units-The Units you have in your squad
Fire Support-The Fire Supports you have
In this game, there are two types of points- GP and CP
-=Gear=-
Gear Points are used to buy things for yourself, from assault rifles to knives. More things will become available as the game goes on. Also, these are just generic categories, so you can specify what gun or piece of equipment it is specifically, but you get no bonuses for this. Also, there is a limit to what you can have with you, and you can sell gear for 1/2 the price rounded up. You start with 30 GP.
List of Gear and cost
Spoiler :
-=Units=-
In this game, everyone starts out at the rank of Sergeant (except for NPCs). You will rank up according to your performance in missions, and for doing heroic deeds (example- saving the pilot of a downed helicopter). You can get demoted if you directly disobey orders without good reason. Also, if you die, you need to create a new character at 1 rank lower than your previous character (in the case of people who die at the rank of Sergeant, you stay the same rank). The higher your rank, the more troops and fire support you can bring to battle with you.
Spoiler List of Ranks :
You buy units and fire support before the game begins. When you level up or if units die, you can get more. Occasionally, during rounds, I will allow you to call in reinforcements if your men die. However, for the most part, if your men and/or vehicles are destroyed, you need to wait until the end of the round.
Note- all units have a knife and grenades unless specified.
Spoiler List of units :
Fire Support-
During a mission, you can call in fire support, which are one-round bonuses. They take 1 round to come in, and leave when the round ends(unless specified), and need a 1-round cool down time to refuel and reload. you buy these BEFORE the mission starts, not during.
Spoiler List of Fire Support :
Chatroom: coming soon.
The next mission will be on- April 13th
Please note that missions will usually occur on weekends, and will almost always occur before 12 AM EST unless I specify otherwise in this thread. If you can't wake up that early, 2 solutions.
1. Alarm clocks and caffeine.
2. Not all missions are that early.
PLEASE DO NOT POST YET!!!
Not interested.
