[edit] This is the 77th Armed Response Company.
 | Official Mercenaries |
| This faction is a mercenary group for hire |
In the Nexal Universe, there is never a lack of characters. Crusaders, Doctors, Pirates, Televangelists, Rogues, Pseudo-Physicist, even the down right insane. But what is really lacking is that true Militant faction. Reminiscent of the Army, but lacking the nauseating overuse of lines from "Full Metal Jacket", excessive machismo followed by male communal showering, and confusing bouts of not "asking" and not "telling." This is where the 77th Armed Response Company comes into the picture.
What IS the 77th? Well, you may get a few answers depending on whom you ask. But the truth is, we're just a group of well minding citizens. Except we're armed with Firearms, Swords, and pretty much anything that can make an onomatopoeia when added to someone's skull. So, in short, we're soldiers. And from the fact we've risen from the dusts of nothing without any external source of members into a Level 7 faction, we're good at what we do. And what exactly do we do...?
[edit] Mercenaries
| | Official Mercenaries |
| This faction is a mercenary group for hire |
Well, we aren't just a bunch of sentries patrolling our stronghold. When we aren't pursuing our own endeavors, we have been know to provide a well needed service to other factions. What sort of services? Well, often in the dramatics of factional warfare, someone may start a vendetta or even take your flag. But if you've ever ran your own faction, retaliation is often a waste of time/manpower and never really teaches a true lesson. So, we're one of the few factions that can take care of such a problem. Refer to the talk page or our forum(see below) for any requests.
- Services:
- Retrival of Taken Flags
- Removal of a Factional Ward
- Providing Necessary Manpower in a Raid
- Orchestration of a Strike Against Another Faction
- Prices:
All services are to be paid for in Gold ingots. We're charging much less than other mercenary factions.
Reinforcement of Strike Team : 2 gold/ mercenary Full Raid, Client takes flag : 2 gold/enemy faction level ( if success) Retrieval of Client Flag : 1 gold/enemy faction level ( if success) Removal of Faction Ward : 1 gold/enemy faction level
Other Approved Mercenary Factions These are our fellow contract taking factions in the game that can also provide similar services, and have been proven to finish the job. Anyone else and you might as well have just done it yourself.
[edit] Prospective Members
If you enjoy the fine art of hunting the "Most Dangerous Game", or are looking for a place to hone your skills in a fun, friendly, and supportive environment, consider the 77th. We follow a simple motto, and that is this: Do unto others before they do unto you. What this equates to in simple terms is we like to battle, often with other factions. Not for territory, not to purge the lands of {insert particular alignment}, but rather for a satisfying slight-RPing experience (though we vastly prefer to hunt Evil for the sheer fun and ease of it).
Also, if your not too akin to fighting, we always have positions open for crafters, engineers, repairmen, and healers. There's always a spot open for the willing, as we aren't cold-blooded killer exclusive (but it still helps).
[edit] Moral Alignment
As the details state, the 77th Armed Response Company is a good faction. However, we're not 'Aligned Good', but enough to want to include Paladins and Shepherds. Although discretion of who to hunt is left to the individual soldier, we shy away from aggression towards Good factions. Don't think 'evil' Neutrals can't join and have a good time, though.
(Note: We didn't say we don't hit Good targets, we'll strike anything at the right price...)
[edit] Ranks
Foot Soldier - These are unblooded recruits, that have yet to prove themselves or their alligence to the faction. All Foot Soliders have the chance and are encouraged to become full fledged members. Entitled to the sanctuary of our stronghold and our factional bonuses only. Foot soldiers get paid 0.5 Gold Bars per raid.
Support Gunner - The blooded and hardened veterans of the 77th, they've proven that they plan to stay and pledged themselves to the ARC. This rank allows use of the Safe and are welcomed to provide their viewpoint in factional affairs. Support Gunners get paid 1 Gold Bar per raid.
Staff Sergeant - NCO of the 77th, who work underneath the Captains to keep the gears of the ARC moving smoothly. Entitled to particpate in the more important affairs, as well as leading lower members in their chosen field (this is an obligatory positon that requires the holder to show a level of determination in commanding others and comes with much more responsiblity than the previous ranks). Staff Sergeants get paid 2 Gold Bars per raid.
Captain - Dedicated leaders of the ARC, their orders are to be followed to the letter, but are still directed by the general opinion and best interests of the faction. Captains get paid 2 Gold Bars per raid.
[edit] Past Operations
In the past, we have been the part of quite a few conflicts and have struck quite few other factions. But as we lack logs and specific dates and such, we can only state those notable of mention, including raids on ¬_¬ and Demons Next Door. We have also retrieved countless flags, some including those of the Channel Four News Team, the -Avengers, the ICA. We even participated in a successful campaign in the newly opened Purgatorio. But for more reliable reference in the future, any events of importance or operations will be placed here with correlating dates and info.
02:05 GMT 08/31/06 - The ARC removed the Evil Infusers at Maquez Militia. Two defenders present, both putting up no fight. Flag uptained.
19:** GMT 08/31/06 - We also got a visit from a CCC saleperson. Shame is, we couldn't quite tell what he was selling, and he just got shot by a new recruit. Next time we'll try to be more hospitiable, as his offer of a sleepover sounded quite tempting.
21:00 GMT 09/01/06 - The ARC leave the friendly shores of Poco for the dank of the contested Harper Island, setting up their new SH.
02:10 GMT 09/17/06 - After a rather uneventful period of time (well, excluing raiding Assassins of Alamut and a visit from the RRF), the ARC decides to pay SYNDICATE a visit of their own.
