RS2C2 Generals Announcement

Post by Gwynzer »

All,

It is my pleasure to announce that we've found some able volunteers and are ready to announce Campaign 2 for Rising Storm 2! The matchup will be *insert drumroll*:
A Docile Sloth VS Wi1D K4rD
They will be supported by an initial TA group of Gonzo and InsanityRocks, with further TA, HC and Officer decisions to still be made. I'd like to be the first to wish everyone involved in organising this campaign the best of luck, I know I'm looking forward to playing in this campaign!

This campaign the Generals have the intention of bringing back a RISK! system, bringing GC back to its roots. I'm sure that as they begin to finalise the system the information will be made available as we ramp up to the campaign going ahead. Use the next few weeks to talk up GC to online buddies and stranger so we can get into the campaign with a full server. :D



Over the next week expect to see the current army forums and usergroups move to the archives. Most of the archives are publicly available, you just have to sign up to the Archive / Historian usergroup on your forum User CP. I always find it interesting to look through the other armies archives at the end of the campaign.

Good luck to our 2 generals, will they bring GC back to its roots with the Armies story themes also?

Rocks you need to practice till campaign to be good as gonzo, for TA balancing.

I've made this Gif to summarize the "getting ready" feel.

I certainly would like to bring back the story themes! I'll be brainstorming some ideas to discuss with Sloth over the next week.

Congratulations to Sloth and Wild Kard

I'm looking forward to learn from Gonzo, to be the best TA I can be for RS2C2.

This is going to be a good one folks. So sign up: early and often. :thumbup:

Nothing - Your Theme was Number 1, in my book ;-)

Digz: I hear you, but let's be truthful: I'll never be as good a Gonzo - He's the best! :thumbup:

Rise of the kind and benevolent Army 1, the number ONE protectors. The number 1 good guys. The FIRST line of defence. The BEGINNING of civilisation. Led by Gwynzer, First of His Name. Surprisingly meme free despite the "We are number one" song existing and famed internet meme connoisseur cekihappy being a member of the army.

Here to battle the Anti-numeracy Army A who are full of Canadians (eh) Bro's (Ay bruv), XCOM Memers (Kill the Ayys), nasty people (A-Holes) and people with a speech tick or just want ot make sure they're understood (Eh?) Led by TheOne, the man suspiciously absent of A's in his handle - what is his TRUE goal? Not unity - that has no A's either!

With you as Army B and me as Army 2, it was going to be so perfect but now we'll have to change it...

For everyone's amusement, I present to you the random alt-history backstory that I came up with while sitting bored at work not doing anything wondering if my boss will retire so I can get a promotion.


SLOTH vs. Ghost Eagle

1963. Greater Vietnam (Dai Viet).

Dai Viet, encompassing the states of Vietnam, Laos, and Cambodia, is amidst a Civil War. Having won their independence from France and forming a unified nation out of what was once French Indochina, tensions have turned inwards. Viet Cong, previously trained by the Chinese communists, are violently opposed to the Viet Nationalists, unofficially backed by the West, who merely wished for a more democratic system.

Fear of another large scale war between superpowers, no nation has officially joined in the war. The door was opened though for Private Military Companies, mercenaries by any other name, each with their own agendas.

The Vietnamese Civil War has become a proxy war between two of the largest PMCs. One of which, SLOTH (Strategic Logistics, Overwatch, Threats and Harassment), is suspected of being a mere CIA-backed strike force to skirt international politics and avoid war with Communist Russia or China while spreading the roots of their brand of New World Order. The other, Ghost Eagle, an idealistic band of ex-soldiers composed of ex-WW2 soldiers from the 101st Airborne and the 7th Panzer Division, who oppose the NWO and provide support for any country that is potentially under threat of coming under its thumb regardless of nationality or ideology.
