Utterly Mad

(Members of Unified Isle of Jorgen's first division machine gun section wearing gas masks)
The Unified Isle of Jorgen had been a peaceful country that remained independent from the other countries and refused to take part in the wars of others. Never the less their military kept up with military weaponry, keeping pace with their closest competitors in that field. The Unified Isle of Jorgen military has been known to prepare soldiers for the worst of situations with equipment for any contingency they could think of.
That being said many soldiers are ill trained, since Unified Isle of Jorgen (UIJ) has not been attacked in many years. A lot of the younger soldiers do not keep up with the regimental requirements of their posts, and often do not carry all of their assigned kit. This would turn out to be a downfall in coming years.


(Combined Government of The Yorinthian Isles fully outfitted rifleman)
CGYI military invaded the United Isle of Jorgen (UIJ), starting the attacks with gas canisters either shot from artillery or dropped from air planes. After a short period gas mask equipped soldiers would storm forward and eliminate any UIJ soldiers that managed to get gas masks on before the gas killed them or rendered them unable to move. These tactics allowed the CGYI to quickly acquire territory and they nearly took over the entirety of the UIJ. However the retired soldiers of the UIJ retook their positions in the military and began to get the younger soldiers properly trained and ready. Over three quarters of the UIJ were taken before the defense became consolidated enough to repel further attacks.
They have been unable to reacquire their lost territory but they stopped losing territory.


(Tesla Rifle without required backpack and connector)
An ally of the UIJ also managed to send them several weapons such as the Tesla Rifle. The Tesla Rifle requires a backpack that provides it with the large electrical charge required to fire at the range and arc that it does. It is not recommended that the user expose the pack to enemy fire, as when certain components are punctured it can explode violently or leak dangerous fluids onto the user.

Okay first bit is done, and some 'splaining.

Okay, so for those who couldn't tell(what with the images and such) this universe is based off of world war 2, with some more advanced(but kinda not) technology. I'm going to develop this more and then release the RP after I develop it to a satisfying point.

(CGYI flamethrower at display in one of the military training compounds)
The Resistance Fighters however faced an enemy that would show no mercy if they found them. The CGYI burned down entire towns if they discovered a resistance cell. The demolitions squads charged with this duty would sweep the towns with flame throwers and burn any structure they saw, and anyone out of their uniform was shot on sight.
These demolitions squads would have eight members, two equipped with flamethrowers, six equipped with automatic weapons. Demolitions squads deployed for this task were known to wear skull shaped helmets with integrated gas masks.

(A Combined Government of the Yorinthian Isles tank rolling towards the front lines against the United Isles of the Kingdom)
Tank Crews of CGYI were heavily trained and coordinated. Each individual could fulfill all roles required to operate the tank so that if one of the crewmen is eliminated another can take his place. however this only works if the tank is still in one piece, so a shell to the ammo box would still render the vehicle inoperable.

(A United Isles of the Kingdom helicopter used to transport small squads of soldiers)
the United Isles had for years developed fast transport vehicles to aid in what they saw as an inevitable conflict. They knew they would need a way to swiftly move troops from one position to another. These fast helicopters were one of the first fast transit vehicles that they developed, and it has been used for years. It can carry at most a squad of six soldiers in light gear.

(A piece of metal infantry armor designed to aid in the protection of a soldier in the field. Variations of this are used by all sides)
Soldiers more often then not only wore their uniform and whatever assigned kit they had. Few were given this kind of metal armor, and it was generally high priority targets like machine gunners. The effectiveness of this armor varies. There are several variations of this armor, and the different sides are developing various kinds of armor, with the UIK attempting to integrate the hydraulics of other devices into a suit of armor that might allow soldiers to use heavier weapons that they would otherwise need to have on a bi-pod.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Okay, so got more done here then I thought I would. Anyway, if you couldn't tell this is not strictly bound to WW2 technology but the universe itself is based in that time period, the majority of weapons are from WW2 and 1, though you'll see some scifi weapons as well(tesla rifle). Hopefully I'll get enough put up here where I think  I can start the RP I have planned.

Yeah this is open to comments, and glad you like it. A lot of inspiration came from an older RP of mine, but I decided to go with a more grounded and plausible premise(the RP took place on mars in the 1950s or so). I've actually really enjoyed writing this, and having these images actually really helps with that. There's some stuff I'd already have written up but I can't find a good image to represent things like the hydraulic armor.
I'm fairly certain it's clear both with the images and names, but the UIK takes inspiration from Britain, and the CGYI are German inspired. Not sure what the NI would be, American maybe? I don't know honestly, though the image I had to use for that machine gun crew was evidently British.
I will say that while this is essentially WW2, it's alternate history and geography, the latter so I don't have to go very carefully look up maps and such, since I'd probably end up with a situation of someone going 'hold up this battlefield wasn't like that'. The former of those two so I can have stuff like the Tesla Rifle and hydraulic armor.
To end this somewhat rambling post, pretty much anything I write is open to comments, and in fact I really appreciate them. It gives me feedback on what I'm doing right and what I need to change. If there is something I don't want comments on I'll make sure to put something in the original post to make that clear.

(A UIK Sub machine gun set atop a soldiers ruck sack during a break in their march)
This weapon was commonly used by UIK shock troopers and airborne units. The shock troopers, usually adorned with a lighter version of the metal chest plates and gas masks, would wait for near dark and then perform precision attacks on the enemy lines.
The Airborne units preferred the weapon because it was light, easy to handle, and capable of close to mid range combat, which was usually the combat parameters they operated in. The Airborne were commonly dropped into cities or other urban environments and given a set of objectives to achieve, after which they would be extracted. Airborne were also equipped with various explosives and useful tools for their job.

(A Tesla Grenade designed to aid in eliminating opposing soldiers in close quarters)
A weapon similar to the Tesla rifle. It unleashes a burst of electricity that will eliminate anyone living within a radius, but unlike other grenades it generally leaves the surrounding environment relatively intact. The weapon is a one time use before needing to be recharged.

I knew that meant something....
But nah, the UIK is still primarily British inspired, I just need an SMG image for an excuse to talk about those two troops.
Also, I'll get to changing NI around to something different, as I was unaware at the time of what the name might entail. I just came up with the first name I could think of and rolled with it, so I'll change as soon as I think of something.
Also, before anyone decides to be an arse. I was aware there was tension between Ireland and Britain, my brain just did not put two and two together when I made a British inspired nation and one initialed NI. Please forgive that lack of foresight.

The NI(okay let's just change that now). The Unified Isle of Jorgen (yes I'm stealing Jorgen get over it) UIJ. The UIJ aren't really inspired by anything at this point, their just kinda similar to the other gas mask wearing gun toting WW2 nations. Country wise I was more thinking them a mix of the French, Polish, and bit of American.
from my limited understanding, the French are a passionate people about....wine. and other things I'm sure, but that's just one of the many stereotypes you hear in America, and the running joke that the French don't win wars they just surrender(to which I'd like to reply 'what about Napoleon.). The whole resistance idea came from some stories I read about French and Belgian resistance fighters.
So I apologize for the mistake on my part, I just did not have the fore sight to see that being a problem and I'll change it. The point of this is not to be political, it's just to have fun.

Still, it's something I should have done a bit more research on. I knew it existed, I just failed to realize how what I was writing was connected to the real world. That's something I do more then I'd like to admit in my writing.

But anyway, yeah the French were not idiots from what I read. They were competent and capable, they just weren't prepared for the forces that attacked them.
I'll probably get another part or two up later today.

EDIT: Oh yeah, I think I changed everything over ot using UIJ, if I missed anything let me know.

Demolition squad NO. 15. Commanding Officer Hunter.
Incident #502, town sweep. Cell was discovered, elimination process under way.
Date: 04/15/1945
CO Signature: Maxwell Hunter

Command note: Large cell, additional soldiers sent to help handle the situation. Making exemption to standard procedure, if civilians co-operate do not eliminate. Houses will be searched for hidden weapons and personnel, as well as evidence of Resistance sympathizers. If any are found the weapons are to be piled outside and the house ignited. If enemy personnel are found eliminate them.
---
"Round up civilians. Put them against the church in the town center. Anyone seen with a weapon will be shot on sight. Once a house is cleared our men will search it and see if there is any evidence or hidden weapons. Anyone wearing a resistance uniform or UIJ uniform will be shot on sight." Hunter said as he and his men dismounted from the truck.
Hunter grabbed his gas mask and said "Masks on, standard procedure."
His men followed his orders and they started into the town. With a motion of his hand Hunter sent two of his men to one of the houses and they banged on the door. Hunter heard a woman open the door and ask what was going on before he was out of ear shot.  Hunter, along with two of his men, walked up to the door of one of the houses and banged on the door.
An old man opened the door and saw them before going pale. Hunter said "Go with this man, we are searching your house."
The man went without protest, and Hunter attributed that to the fact the man that was escorting him had a flamethrower. Hunter walked through the door and sighed as he spotted a Resistance uniform. He continued searching the house and found a few rifles, and a grenade. He walked outside carrying the weapons and tossed them onto the street. "Hey, light that house up!" He yelled to one of the flamethrower equipped soldiers, who immediately went to work with a bit too much enthusiasm.
--a few hours later--
Nearly a hundred civilians were lined up in front of the church, into which CGYI soldiers were dragging the handful of Resistance fighters that had attacked them. Hunter walked a distance away and picked up a radio. "Hunter to command. Requesting orders concerning the handling of civilians involved in Incident #502."
"This is command, what have you found?"
"Everyone in town was responsible of at least holding weapons and uniforms for the Resistance."
"Then proceed with standard. Eliminate everyone. Command out."
Hunter put the radio down and walked back to the collection of his men. He tapped one on the shoulder and whispered "Take the children to the trucks."
The man nodded and motioned for a few of the other soldiers to help him. The parents didn't protest, they knew what was coming, and told their children to follow the men. Hunter waited until the children were out of sight and then waited a few more minutes.
After that he lifted his gun and fired, and his men took that as their cue.
--a few minutes later--
With the church in flames Hunter and his squad took charge of the trucks that the children were in, and Hunter ordered the rest to remain quiet about them. It took several hours but Hunter and his men dropped the children off at an orphanage, and Hunter handed the woman in charge an envelope. "It's all I could get, and I wasn't planning on delivering it like this, but an assignment got in the way. These children....you know my job, you know what happened. Take care of them."
The woman briefly hugged Hunter before he returned to his men. They removed their gas masks and they drove off. One of his men put a hand on Hunters shoulder. Hunter looked at the man and said "We're doing the best we can for them, I mean the best we can while still following orders. Aren't we?"
The man said "The best we can, within the restrictions imposed on us sir."
Hunter nodded and looked back ahead of them. The driver said "Get some sleep, it'll be a while before we get back to base."
----------------------
Results of Incident #502
All required targets were eliminated without issue. Burial and repair squads arrived, with the repair squad heading for the nearby rail road to repair the damage caused by a Resistance bomb. The Burial squad buried the civilians, and found the Resistance soldiers corpses burned inside the remains of the church.

Spoiler:  disturbing content (hover to show)

Results are within parameters, and several soldiers made sure we took note that it was 'not a repeat of Incident #408'. Upon inspection of specified Incident the Demolition squad eliminated everyone in town. Men, women, children. It took nearly a year for the squad to recover mentally, those that lived that long. Three of the eight members hung themselves during their mental rehabilitation. Further investigation is to be scheduled, both into said Incident and into all soldiers involved. Since Said incident it is to be noted standard procedure was changed.

(A dummy wearing a CGYI helmet and gasmask.)
The CGYI had some black book projects and dvisions. almost no one knew of them, and the soldiers that were a part of them knew these were life long assignments. Whether it was para drops deep into enemy territory or attacking the nearest enemy base under the cover of night.


UIK Field Report
Topic: The Midnight attack on base 551

Some of the attackers the men described as seeming un-human. All I could get out of the men was that the enemies just seemed wrong, and that it looked like their gasmasks were literally a part of their faces and that something in their eyes glowed. Ontop of that several men reported an enemy soldier who walked THROUGH the flames of a flamethrower and was perfectly fine excepting his uniform(Gas mask was fine) and weapon. The report proceeded to describe that the man calmly strangled the flamethrower operator.
The men are being sent home for phsycological evaluation and these claims will be investigated, but at this juncture they are believed to be false.

Okay, going to get back to writing this because I actually like writing it. I'll probably get to actual stories instead of world building. Partially because I'm now having trouble finding decent images for things that I haven't already used.
