What's left.. of your squads.

John is indeed correct, but let me explain.

This is how the thing is organised for infantry

Number of squad(00 being the personal unit of the leader)-Name of squad leader
Number of functional personell in unit/number of personell in the field

At the bottom is
Number of functional personell/Number of initial personell in battle(Number of the total personell in the division)

So your division of 300 is fully deployed.
Example:
Karras' unit is number 1. They have 24 people remaining and had 30 people initially

01-Karras

24/30

Note that some people are hurt or killed

Common status are
[WIA] Wounded in action (Severe injury disallowing combat duty Ex: missing leg and rapid blood loss)
[KIA] Killed in action (Death disallowing combat duty)
[MIA] Missing in action (The target is not at his combat post)

All of those would list the charachter as non functional personell and relieve the officer of non commisioned officer of his duties. Command falls onto the next highest in the unit.

Note that surviving a battle WIA gets you a purple heart medal displayed at your memorial if your charachter dies.

Mechanised divisions are divided by vehicle type.
Name of vehicle type
Number of functional vehicles/Number of initial vehicles
Number of functional personel/Number of initial personel

mike, your spelling is horrible. just thought i would let you know. and i mean horrible as in awful, with no good connotation whatsoever.

back to related topics

is john part of a squad or anything? cause he seems to be mostly by his lonesome. well, he has FUCKING INSANE HUGE guns to keep him company. but that's about it. also, does he have a radio? i dont think so. looks like i'm screwed : ) hope i dont run out of ammo.

Hey, you don't capitalise.

I usually write these late at night and english IS my second language, so yeah, mistakes may occur.

capitalization is either grammar or punctuation. i forget which. (hey, i'm good at math and science, not english).

Hey, English is my second language too. We all do our best, still, you should put some effort in capitalization. It would make it easier.

I'm a bit confused. I'm trying to find a place to jump in, who is where? What situation are they in? Just a name and place will do, AKA who has the least action right now?

Unless you're an ODST,

You'll be part of Unit 02. You commander is Ellen Shaftpern, who is very stck up and by the book. Rin Seiko is your squadmate. You're in a Warthog coloumn going toward the SuperMACs.

If you ARE an ODST, then you've just landed ontop of a mountain and are trying to find out what's around you.

Capitalization falls under the category of punctuation, not grammar.

Please do not make a big spectacle out of other people's mistakes. Yes, Mike spelled a few words wrong, but the majority of the words he spells incorrectly are due to typos. Mike is right; the fact that you never capitalize words is a crucial error in punctuation.

By the way, you probably shouldn't criticize Mike so openly on his own forum page.

EDIT: Since when has Shaftpern been a captain?

Ellen's a sergeant just like Karras.

They command 30 men, you command 300. There's a difference. The 30 listed there are your personal guard unit.

I'd be fine if I was critisized by Jack or Kranford, but I was surprised to have CP call me out, as he puts less effort into his posts than necessary to capitalise.

I misread the post, Mike. My mistake. I thought you said his "captain" was Shaftpern. I kind of skimmed over it.

Sorry if I sounded a bit harsh, Pyro.

na, it's cool, and you were right. i was just sorta in a bad mood that day, seeing as how i had just spent a week with my dad. we dont get along so well. and besides, you were right. i do sincerely apologize to everyone whom i have criticized.



on a side note: everything here is atrocious in the english language. i'm just too lazy to make it right, so i'll shut up here before i piss off other people/embarrass/humiliate myself further.

My character is a useless know-nothing recruit. I was trying to make mike not want her in the R.P. but he actually liked what I've got thus far.
her name is Aiesha D. Mallejo. The military or whatever was a last resort.
She's 27 years old, blood type A-. 5ft.5in. with grey eyes.
Rank: whatever the lowest one is.
Previous Occupations (and why she was fired/quit):
Bartender(broke too many glasses)
Animator (cracked someone's head open with a drawing board)
secretary (quit because of sexual harassment)
Nurse (fired for sexual harassment)
Paper clip counter (counted same clip 12 times)
babysitter (tied child upside down by shoelaces to moving fan)
Pharmacist (accidental drug abuse)
Zookeeper (caused extinction of Dodos)
Dog Walker (dog got run over)
Skills:
Annoying superiors
Getting fired
Slowing down operations
Running people over (kids= 50 point bonus)
sitting
Sexual harassment (usually unknowingly)
tree climbing
Stealt (she got enemies in high places after the pharmacy incedent)
clubbing (both forms)
eating
sleeping
hair styling
Torture
Imitating comedians

By the way, some of these were angels ideas. there was one other skill, but I was all like, HELL NO!

CloserToNowhere, your character description is hilarious. Just wanted to say that. I especially like the babysitter comment, and the animator one. They were all awesome, of course. It will be interesting to see how your character's... interesting past affects her in Mike's game.

We can only guess at what Angel's other suggestion was...

EvilIdiot, I don't mean to sound critical, but your posts seem to follow every rule that Mike said NOT to follow. Well, at least you use proper grammar on occasion and spell out your words, even if you don't capitalize them.

My French teacher played us a song called "Aisha". It was sung in French, of course, but I still think of it every time I hear the name.

Look, I know it was a really random thing to bring up. It's just that it's the only place I'd ever heard the name, until you used it for your character in the RP.

I'm close friends with Mike, and I'd known him for three years before he invited me to this website. I might be able to persuade him to bring this RP back to life.

I might bring it back, but I'm in trouble, and even more so because I was just on the site was up on my screen and my mom walked in

irony? gtg

EDIT---

Well, I'm back.

To explain why this is ironic. Them was talking to me on the phone, and told me to check out LotG, as I did.
Then, my mom went in, and saw me on the website while I was supposed to be working. So I might not be able to come on for some time now, and then I have to go to russia.

cya all.
