THE FIREBATS

d6285b7c1c60440a987efc225c190ab2.jpeg

Name: The Firebats
Intent: A professional army of soldiers to form Greta's personal guard and paramilitary force
Affiliation: Greta Kohler
Availability:
Rare
Quality: B (Veteran)
Type: Elite Infantry
Strength: 150 per company (750 total)


Description:

The Firebats were created by Greta to serve as her personal guard and personal paramilitary force. Those picked were the best of the best, selected from prestigious military academies and military bases in the One Sith empire. Those that were not picked but wished to join, were allowed to undergo a series of tests and training before undergoing a final examination to see if they were deemed worthy. Membership was one hundred percent voluntary, and every single of these brave men and women had chose to be a part of it, and their loyalty is therefore resolute.

Filled with dedication and commitment, the Firebats were extremely capable and always eager to please their mistress. Equipped with armour and weapons specially designed and crafted for them, it clearly shows Greta's commitment to ensuring that her personal guards are able to serve well without obstructions.

After confirmation of being selected as a Firebat, these 'recruits' will go through four months of intensive training. It is there that their former advanced infantry tactics and training is put to the test once more in the harshest of environments. Top cadets who came from prestigious military academies would train alongside combat veterans who had volunteered themselves to be a part of this, in a bid for the young blood to learn from these experienced soldiers.

Being exposed to equipment and weapons specifically created for them, the Firebats would then undergo equipment and weapons handling sessions where they would prove their competence. It is also during this stage that potential leaders would be identified and marked for leadership positions.

Extremely well-trained in a variety of situations, their expertise lay in assassination, extraction, ambushes, clear and hold and many more. Guarding was but just a basic norm for them. In times of war, the Firebats are more than capable of using their expertise to boost the competency of the One Sith military units they may be attached to, enhancing overall productivity and efficiency. Familiar with a wide variety of weapons, they are able to face different types of threats without much difficulty.

Segregated into officer ranks and non-officers, the Firebats had seen fit to abolish the commonly known NCO ranks in the military, instead relying on just two groups, those that were officers and the rest who were not. They are based out of Greta's personal stronghold in the One Sith controlled fortress world of Prakith. However, they can and will be assigned to go to various places, accompanying the Sith in her adventures and conquests alongside her.

Strengths:
  • Cream of the crop: Each and everyone of these soldiers are highly-trained and graduated from the best military academies on Coruscant as well as other notable military installations throughout the empire. They are highly effective and reliable combatants in a variety of fields and situations.
  • Unwavering loyalty: Down to the last soldier, each and everyone of them are volunteers. These brave men and women had signed up, volunteering themselves to serve her and their loyalty is resolute. Highly motivated and dedicated soldiers, they offer both their undying loyalty to Darth Noxia and the One Sith.
Weaknesses:
  • Specialised: Due to their nature of being equipped to specifically handle enemy personnel, they are lacking in options when it comes to taking out enemy armour, artillery and air units, making them weak when facing heavy mechanised opponents of such.
  • Slow replenishment rate: Due to the nature of them being elite troops, reinforcing the ranks of the fallen can take some time. Being an elite volunteer only unit means that they can't just pick anyone off the street to fill its ranks.

Hi, I'll be your Codex Judge for this one.

When dealing with elite units, substantial development is required for any unit that numbers above 100 troops. While The Shadows thread (http://starwarsrp.net/topic/66866-the-shadows/) is a start, the Diplomacy Fails thread (http://starwarsrp.net/topic/65560-when-diplomacy-fails/) doesn't meet our criteria. There are a few options we can choose to move on from.
  • Do another 15 post thread with 2+ people and they can have 1-5 of these units. So it would be rare (5 total). That would give you 750 of these troops total.
  • Leave as is and make them unique. In other words, you won't have to do any more development, but you cannot have more than the state 150.
  • Leave as is and drop them down to B quality. No dev thread required, and you can still have a total of 750, but the quality is degraded. Now, it is possible for a B grade unit to be elevated to A, but it takes substantial work to do so. Throw them into the fire a few times and let them see substantial combat and the situation can be revisited.
Whatever path you choose, you'll have to make clear that their affiliation is to the One Sith.

Anyway, thanks for the submission. It's been a pleasure to read, and I look forward to getting the wrinkles ironed out so we can approve it.

Hi Rusty,

I have dropped down their quality to B(Veteran), and added the OS to their affiliation as well.
I hope that is now acceptable.
