Ok, well then I have a question:
What kinds of characters are you looking for? Jack-of-all-trades, good ol' soldiering types, or more specializes 'archetypes' like marksman, demolition specialist, etc.
Speaking of snipers....Any specifics on the sniper rifles? I assumed a slug thrower, but I like to be technical...
Can't wait to face you guys on the battlefield :CSly
So is a roster going up or what?
Mars is waiting for mod access. A few things will be changed on the information thread (such as First Sergeant being changed over to Gunnery Sergeant) and a roster will be put up.
EDIT: and Malon, we can't wait either. :)
The 'about' section mentions a lot of jedi integration. Would my jedi, once he's ascended to knighthood, be able to join training and so on?
Yes; he would be subjected to a normal, 8 week boot camp just like any other soldier, and after that, be a Marine. We are still deciding if Jedi will automatically be officers or still be required to go to Officer Academy.
I would suggest they do. I'm highly considering signing up my Jedi Master, Siri, for the Marines, and even I'd want her to go through the Officer Academy. Jedi aren't normally instructed in how to lead troops at the Temple, so it would be good for them to learn, even if OOC'ly their user is pretty okay with commanding units.
Well if it counts while talking to Sree few months back, I let her know that when deployed in command of a republic force ( mind you the normal military/naval forces)
Jedi masters would be considered field generals
Jedi Knights would be considered captains
Jedi Padawans would be considered more or less as lieutenants but required their masters approval
so if that gives a starting point to consider
It's very likely that the Jedi will have to go through OCS and a boot before being deployed alongside Marines. It'd be rediculous to let Jedi slide on the training that all Marines are subject to just because of the glowstick on their waist :bitchez
