The Battle for Fort Sabre


Southern United State, 2284 C.E.

The smoke cleared from the battlefield, Enclave, Settler, and BOS bodies lay strewn across the entire battlefield a bloody and dismembered mess. The settlers were the one's to get it the worst, their light armor and inferior weapons were no match for the Enclave Plasma and Laser weapons. The Enclave and BOS came out fairly good, but still, they had suffered casualties as well. Limbs of bodies were everywhere, laser wounds sizzled through the Power Armor of BOS and Enclave alike. Little puddles of green goo were everywhere, including scattered ash that was all once a human being.

Bodies of the fallen were stripped of what was still useful to their side. The first battle for Fort Sabre had ended, the BOS and Settlers living near Fort Sabre had been defeated, they would not be returning anytime soon, to deal with the Enclave forces still holding the fort, which was built into the sides of three large hills. Inside it was all very technological and sterile looking, it was also very large and could hold two whole Battalions inside. But the outside looked just like a hill, but with trenches, bunkers, and pill boxes scattered all around where Enclave troops still patrolled and watched for any enemies. At the top of the three hills, were three major watch towers, equipped with powerful search lights that scanned the walls that surrounded the three large hills.

The walls of the fort were tall, and had barbed wire at the top so no enemy could climb over without getting caught in someway or another. Fort Sabre was a strong and well defended fortress, no one had ever broken through its walls until now. Since the arrival of a small BOS contingent that was 300 strong near Fort Sabre, they had been fighting in minor skirmishes, but they were deadly none the less.

Both sides were now in need of reinforcments, and both sides could not handle another attack from the other, nor could have a successful attack if they tried. Both sides had worn each other down considerably.

The Enclave had kept their heads down for sometime in the Southern United States, and all the while were gathering information and whatever else they could learn about the people and creatures of the area. But when the BOS made their appearence, the Enclave began to get worried about their influence on the people living in small settlements. And so, the top Enclave commanders in the Southern United States, made their appearence on the stage of battle when a unsuspecting platoon of BOS Knights and Paladins was on patrol of the area around Fort Sabre and some other hills they had made as bases.

The quick skirmish ended with the entire Platoon being wipped out, and the BOS being notified of the Enclaves presence. The Enclave had made themselfs known, and were in a tight war with the BOS from then on, both sides fought each other when ever they saw one another.

They fought so well, and both were so evenly matched, that the war gradually came to a standstill. Niether side could make a move without the other countering it with another attack. But then, the BOS sent a contingent to Fort Sabre, one of the larges Enclave bases in the Southern United States, and recruited the settlers that lived all around Fort Harm, giving them armor found of dead Raiders and others. And when the first battle for Fort Sabre started, it was a blood bath. The BOS and Settlers made little progress with the Enclave just hiding behind their walls, and taking shots at Settlers and BOS alike before they could reach the walls. The battle for Fort Sabre lasted for three hours, and during the height of the battle, part of the wall that surrounded Fort Sabre was breached, and BOS and Settlers alike swormed in, but were only cut down by Enclave Sentry bots and Laser turrets.

Gradually the Enclave were successful, and beat the BOS and Settlers back. Now both sides are cleaning their wounds, and calling in more reinforcements. The BOS and Enclave have retired to their sides, and are awaiting those reinforcements for the next stage of the battle.
_______________________________________________

Current Situtation of everything

Both sides have retired from the battlefield, and are waiting for reinforcements to arrive. The piece of wall that was blown out by the BOS is being fixed immediatly, and traps are being set infront of the walls so no BOS or Settler can reach the wall without getting shot into the air or being totally blasted into pieces. The settlers have been arguing with the BOS, and have been demanding new armor and weapons that can match the Enclave's. But the BOS knows the only armor and weapons that can match the Enclave's is their own, and they are not that willing to give the Settlers their own Power Armor and Laser weapons. This has caused tensions between the Settlers and BOS, and the BOS has become more of a police force, keeping the Settlers down and not allowing them weapons unless given for battle.

But while the BOS and Settlers argue over their problems, the Enclave is busy at work training newer soldiers and healing their wounded. The Enclave Commander controlling Fort Sabre, has sent the one and only: Lieutenant Marcus Collins, to the nearby Enclave Supply and Holding base to gather new soldiers for the next battle.

Your Introduction

This is where you come in. You are a Enclave soldier, currently stationed at the Enclave Supply and Holding base for new refreshed recruits waiting to get on the front line. The Supply and Holding base has just learned of the great victory at Fort Sabre that they won, and have been very excited to see Fort Sabre for themselfs, and maybe get the chance to fight there. It's better news that they regularly hear about, with the fall of several Hill Sites that they used as bases. You are a new recruit, that is fresh from boot camp, and is eager to get their baptism of fire one way of the other. All the recruits are clad in basic Enclave Power Armor, while the Tesla Armor is held only for Officers. (Hellfire Armor is non-existant around here, but has been heard of.)

Personality: Marcus is a strong leader who wants the best from all his soldiers. He is cool headed under fire, and understands when those new to actual combat get scared and freeze up. You can usually see his helping those who do freeze up in battle, so they don't get killed. He is a good speaker, and has a caring heart for those who deserve to be cared about. Marcus is 100% about the Enclave and their mission to rid the wasteland of those who are trying to rebuild the United States as it used to be. He doesn't understand why those who need help, would throw away the chance to rebuild America the way it used to be, and make it a better place even.

Bio: Marcus is a veteran from the war with the BOS in the Captial Wasteland, and was promoted from Sergeant to Lieutenant after he escaped with a broken Plasma pistol and barely his life. He was just a young soldier then, eager and excited like all the other recruits he see's today. But he knows what's going through their heads when they see a dead body for the first time, and knows that their whole vision of war changes, some for the better, some for the worst. After fighting in the Captial Wasteland, Marcus was taken to a secret base where he told all he knew about the BOS in the Captial Wasteland, and the Outcasts as well.

After that, he was reassigned to Fort Sabre where he fought in the first battle for Fort Sabre, and killed many Settlers and BOS Knights and Paladins. He has determined to exact his anger on all Brotherhood of Steel Knights and Paladins he meets, no matter the curcumstance he is in. He will kill the Knight or Paladin.

NOTE: Once I think we have enough players, I will post the actual thread that were we will be playing.

Well Dr. Strangelove... I like the Enclave and I like your idea, I'm in if I can be a good enough RP'er for you.

Name: Andrew Jermane (Prefers Andy)

Age: 24

Gender: Male

Race: Caucasian

Rank: Corporal

Appearence:
-Darkened face from spending a lot of time in the sun
-Dark brown eyes that never betray emotion
-Scar across his forehead
-Rough Beard
-Long messy Brown Hair
-Decent Physical Build
-6'1

Weapons:
-Plasma Rifle

-Advanced Power Armor Mark II
-Dark green cargo pants
-Light brown T-Shirt

Misc:
-Two small pictures: One of him and his family and one of the woman he loves.
- x10 Stimpacks
- x4 Purified Water

Personality: Andrew is a man of few words to most people, but among his leaders and close friends he is quite open. He's one of 3 moods: Concentrating. Cheerful. Or depressed. He's always concentrating while he's in a fighting zone, but he can be cheerful sometimes. He's mostly cheerful while with his friends and superiors, cracking jokes and always has a smile. He's only depressed when hearing of bad news, such as when he heard of his Family's death.

Bio: Andrew was born into the Enclave, just like most others, he spent his life training like everyone else, he didn't excel in any fields, but he didn't slack off in any either. He could always pass his practical tests, never failing one like most of his friends. At the age of 19 he was taken out on many patrols, during one of these the place in which his family and friends lived was destroyed. After this, Andrew started becoming worse and worse at what he did until a year later.

He met a woman, whom he met during one of his many patrols, they were quick friends and within six months of knowing her, Andrew loved her. She only ever saw him as her friend, but this was it, Andrew's confidence came back and he returned to who he used to be. Recently, before getting shipped off to Fort Sabre, he recently heard from the woman that she wanted to talk to him, but, as he had to go, he couldn't and could only send her a letter instead.

He's been hoping something like this wouldn't happen to him, but it has, he's almost waiting for death to come to him, but he hopes it won't be like that.

Your in character sheet seems to be in good order. I'll see if your a good Rp'er when we start. I don't like judging someone's Rp ability from other Rp's since over time they could have gotten better or worse?

True, thanks, I'm sure that this'll be a good RP.

I will be happy to join if you allow it.

Name: Matt Kennedy

Age: 21

Gender: Male

Race: Caucasian

Rank: Private

Appearance: Mildly tanned skin, Bright Blue eyes, 5 O'clock shadow, shaved head but not bald, 5'9, fit with medium build.

Weapons: Gatling Laser

Armor/Clothing: Merc grunt outfit (Doesn't provide any additional protection), Advanced Power Armor Mark II

Misc: Basic supply kit which includes: rations, canteen of water, a stimpack and a roll of bandages

Personality: Patriotic in an almost religious sense. He worships the once great country and wishes to see it restored to it's former glory no matter the cost. Can be some what friendly to others but only if they see things eye to eye. He has a chip on his shoulder and once your his enemy you stay there. He has a sense of humor although it doesn't appear often. He has a level head and a good amount of common sense, he also works well in a team.

Bio: Matt was born into the Enclave, behind a long line of serving fathers. His family name had honor throughout the Enclave, while the family had not always been one of the highest up the food chain, they were known for being excellent soldiers. As Matt grew up he learned that it was every male's duty to fight for the Enclave. His father was a retired soldier who had fought and proven his worth. Now it was Matt's turn, he and his twin brother became recruits as soon as they possibly could. They completed basic training at almost the exact same time and were put out into the field. Matt has only experienced a few minor patrols and missions, nothing major. His brother was posted far away and they haven't seen each other since.

Matt is eager to fight for the Enclave and he wishes to prove that he deserves his family name. His healthy competition with his brother helps Matt push himself harder to achieve his goals. When he heard of the Enclave victory at Fort Sabre, he signed up almost immediately.

Aussi, you can have a Gatling Laser. I just didn't want anyone carrying more than one big gun at a time. That's what I mean't by no Rambo's.

Cheers mate, I've edited it accordingly. I just thought it may be a bit powerful which is why I asked. Thanks

I liked "The Silent War", so I can be sure this will be a great RP. Plus I am in love with Dr. Strangelove
Movie, not the character.

Name: Kennedy Carter

Gender: Male


Race: All American; Caucasian


Rank: Private


Appearance:
- Slightly pale skin from spending most of his time indoors.

- Clean shaven for recruitment process.

Misc:
- 600 MF Cells
- 150 Energy Cells
- x5 Salisbury Steak
- x5 Purified Water
- Lucky baseball cap when allowed
- x1 Psycho
- x2 Stimpack


Personality:
Ken is a young, joking fresh recruit. Not known for taking most situations seriously, he prefers a sarcastic remark or joke rather than a serious tone during a firefight. Friendly to almost everyone he comes into contact with making him popular amongst his peers. He is cocky and known for taking more dumb chances then others, but never anything to seriously endanger himself or his fellow soldiers. Perfectionist at heart and doesn't settle for anything less than the best. Though he hates to admit it, he frequently freezes up from fear during intense battles. Still unharmed from the emotional scars veteran soldiers receive.

Bio: Born into the Enclave, he has spent almost all of his life following protocol and admiring the work of Enclave soldiers. He is quite familiar with the protocol and Officers which allowed him to excel during training. He has become desensitized to the serious tone the Enclave has. He has above average intelligence and perception while lacking in physical ability. He spent most of his early childhood training and studying the tactics used by great Enclave Officers. His perfectionist attitude has made him an almost perfect shot with his AER9 Laser Rifle.

He began formal recruitment training at the age of 17 and hoped to be either a field medic or Vertibird crewman. Though he scored above average on his diagnostic tests, he settled for infantry. Time spent around Vertibird crewman has given him a decent knowledge of mechanics and is adept at basic repairs on vehicles and weapons. His forte is First-Aid and health. He hopes that with a combination of good leadership and combat exposure will shape him into one of the many Enclave soldiers he admired throughout his childhood.

Welcome.

Would you allow Recon armor as a fitting? I recall reading that Enclave or BoS forces use it. Plus I always see paladins lacking power helmets but wearing recon helmets.

Oh and I believe the recuriting age is 19 not 18? It doesn't matter, I'm just thinking of the military.

You can have anything you'd like, just keep it Enclave friendly and such.

Its sad to see we are back to generic Enclave/BoS RPs, but thats not your fault. My Character sheet here

She prefers Brains over Brawn and as such feels removed from the rest of the Enclaves "Meat Shield" department as she puts it. But she will work with them when the need arises.

Sorry Deadly, but no foreigner's. Enclave is all American.

Note that I made an edit to my age and to my armor details.

If anyone else wants to join, they should post their character sheet soon or tomorrow. I will still except those who haven't posted yet, but tomorrow if anyone posts when the actual thread is already up (After I get off work), they will not be excepted. I don't want this Rp getting out of hand with characters and people.

I was seriously expecting an abundance of lone wolf snipers.

Seems like an interesting enough RP. Haven't RP'd consistently in a few weeks so I should be able to post quite a bit. Oh, and if we're talking U.S. military you can sign up at 17 with parental consent. I know 'cause I did .

Name: Lorenz Vanisti

Age: 19

Gender: Male

Race: Mixed (Black/White)

Rank: Private

Appearance:

-6'1 and roughly 150 pounds.
-Smooth tan skin.
-Cropped dirty blonde hair.
-Light goatee coming in.
-Muscular yet lithe frame.
-Light hazel eyes that give the appearance of a trustworthy person.

Weapons:

-Customized AER9 Laser Rifle (Modified to fire short bursts, medium-range scope added.)
-AEP7 Laser Pistol
-Standard Enclave issued Ka-Bar combat knife.

Armor/Clothing:

-Standard Enclave issue Advanced Power Armor Mk II.
-Standard Enclave issue cammies with urban digital pattern.
-Faded blue shirt and dark jeans for when he's off duty.


Misc:

-216x Energy Cells
-300x MFC's
-Pack of cherry flavored Swisher Sweet cigars.
-Standard Enclave issue supply kit made up of various toiletries and a few MRE's.

Personality: Adaptive, ruthless, and loyal. Arrogant and prideful, he remains steadfast in his dedication to the Enclave.

Bio: Descendant of two well-known scientists, Lorenz is constantly pressured to live up both his late father and mother's memory. In spite of this, or perhaps because of it he joined the famed Enclave military instead, wanting to make a name for himself in his own way. Even in basic training Lorenz seemed to enjoy being pushed to his mental and physical limits.

The drill instructors made an example out of him because of his parents, calling him names like "Einstein" and "Egghead Jr." while he knocked out sets of push-ups, doing so many by the end of the day he lost count. Not all of his superiors were as cruel, though. A sergeant by the name of Sandra Harbin had taught him more about combat rather then just berate him and hope for the best. Sure Harbin was a woman and female non-commissioned officers were often looked down upon even by the likes of privates and corporals, but Lorenz hoped he'd end up in her squad all the same.

As far as mental and physical tests went he aced them all, taking special care to get the fastest times during runs and the most reps in weight training. His competitive spirit rubbed a lot of his fellow recruits the wrong way and earned him the reputation of a "showboater" but he seems not to notice, or care. His exceptional scores on the firing range made him the ideal choice for going into sniper training but when offered he declined. Close quarters fighting appealed to him, and by coming out of perilous situations alive he'd only build his reputation faster. His obvious choice was to become an 11B (Infantryman) and duke it out with the Enclaves enemies on the front lines.

Wow, I love these kinds of RP's. And I'm a proud Enclave Supporter! And I too was in the military for a while, but not American military, the Irish Defense Force, IDF. Anyways...

Personality

Very friendly to his Enclave friends, and enjoys a good laugh. But on the battlefield he has one thing on his mind, kill the enemy of True America's freedom. Drinks and smokes quite a bit off duty, and likes to gamble. He has a thick Southern Midwest accent (think Colonel Autumn).

Bio: Born in an Enclave base in the ruins of Wichita, Kansas. JR's dad was the drill instructor, and as soon as JR hit 16, he was trained until he couldn't move. Every morning, range practice. Noon, mapping and schooling classes. Afternoon, Training grounds and speed courses, as well as aerobics. At night, survival and basic team cooperation drills. He was a prime candidate for sniper school, recommended by his father. JR took up the class and was the top-gun of the graduating class.

When JR was ready at age 21, he was promoted to Lance Corporal and was given command over a squad. He had a few too many encounters with Super Mutants and Raiders, but the well trained Enclave always came out on top. After one nasty skirmish with a Behemoth and 15 Brutes, JR was made Sergeant and awarded a Medal of Expert Marksmanship and named Master Chief of the Enclave Sniping Division.

((Hope you like it. I know he's a sniper, but I love being one and I was a real sniper during my military time so I can fit the role))

It's fine Jonas. But the enemy will probably be getting close at times that would be useless for your scope. And its good to see other fighting men on here, (Marine myself).

ATTENTION: Anyone who hasn't posted their character sheet yet, or is still thinking about joining better make up their minds soon. In a few hours, I will be starting the game, and this will be locked.

Well I do have an 10mm SMG for close quarters, and if its ok I'd like to just sit in a tower of some high place and pick off the BOS and Settlers.

Back to this Strangelove? I'd join but I'm probably not going to be active for much longer. Best wishes to you guys.

Anyway a survivor of Hill 56 could sneak his way in here?

This is now locked. Anyone who hasn't posted a character sheet is welcomed to send it via PM to me. But I think we have enough for the moment.
