Greetings, and welcome to WWII Europe. In this RPG, you will play as a soldier in WWII starting on January 1, 1942. At this point in the war, the Soviet Union has joined the Allied side and been with them for a full year, and are pressing their counter-assault on Nazi Germany. This RPG will not be completely accurate in it's historical events, for game-play purposes. Not all battles that were lost, will be lost here. And not all battles that were won will be won again. Perhaps Nazi Germany wont be defeated, and will break the will of the Allies in Europe and proceed to take over Soviet Russia. Only time will tell.
First off, some rules.
1. Control only your character. Want a team-mate to do something? Tell him to, and he will try his best. 2. Do not assume you succeeded. Please post what you attempt to do and any extra notes about it, but not what happens. 3. In the event you and another player are in the same battle, it is paused until all plays post their move. If someone doesn't post their action within a reasonable amount of time, they will automatically do what makes sense. Ex. Take cover, run away, etc. 4. Please read over your post before you post it. Does your action make sense? Has your question already been answered? And so on.
Now that that's out of the way, some information about your character and your options. You can join one of many armies, of one of six nations, of one of two factions. Your first choice. Are you part of the Allies, or the Axis? Your second. Are you part of the UK, America, Russia, Nazi Germany, Italy, or Japan? Your next choice is what your character is. Is he/she a foot soldier? A pilot? Perhaps they're in the navy. After that, you must choose further specialization. Are you a demolitions expert, a support gunner, a designated marksman, or perhaps you pilot a fighter plane, or a bomber, or are a gunner on a ship. Perhaps you drive a tank, or are the wheel-man for an armored vehicle? You decide.
Now, please fill out your character sheet. There is always room for more, unless stated otherwise.
NamePlease choose a name that fits your Nationality.) Gender: Age18, 17 for American, 14 for German) NationalityUK, Soviet, American, German, Italian, or Japanese) Description: Biography: InjuriesLeave blank unless you want to play with a handicap.) Health status:Good Stamina:100% ArmyLeave blank.) TeamLeave blank.) RankWill take from age and biography.) Specialization: WeaponsLeave blank.) EquipmentLeave blank.) Misc.Put things that you actually use, not things like "Food" "Water" "Family photo"
Your description does not need to be very descriptive. Tall, green eyes, red hair is perfectly fine with your nationality. Any marks or scars or extra things like that is just for fun, and will help me spice up roleplaying. Your biography on the other hand, is very important. I will derive your rank, your abilities, which army you're in, and how people act towards you by how your character has been developed and how their personality is. Please put your background, your personality, and traits or extra tidbits, along with anything special about your character in the Biography section.
Injuries are optional for now, if you sustain one during combat, it will be listed there.
Your Specialization is what kind of soldier you are. Like before, are you a marksmen, demolitions expert, do you pilot a plane? Please be descriptive as possible here on what you do, and I'll simplify it. The more info, the better.
In the Misc section, I'll give you an example of what my character would have.
Frederick Von Bergerdorf, a Nazi support gunner of the Schutzstaffel, ranked what would be Corporal in America, was given a balisong (Butterfly knife) by his father when he was a child, as stated in his biography. That would be his only important misc item, and would be the only thing I list there. It can be left blank. Things like that would not be listed under weapons, as a Balisong is not a fighting knife, it's a knife that most people keep around for doing tricks and just basic cutting, like cutting wrappers and whatnot.
After you're done, please post your character sheet and await a response. Any questions should be posted above your character sheet, along with any comments that aren't about your current action.
Extra note: I'm a GM for Call of Cthulhu in my town. You can trust that I know what I'm doing, and will do my best to give you the best experience possible. I will be using my dice using the D20 system that is taught in my version of Call of Cthulhu, instead of just making up what happens. If you get shot in the head, it's because that guy with the pistol rolled a 1 on his D100. Tough luck, friend.

You call out to your men to stay on the alert, and wait for a good shot at anyone.
About an hour later, a shot is heard from one of your marksmen, and he calls out: "Hit." Your other three follow suit, firing from the trees without tracer rounds at the incoming force. One calls out: "There's got to be at least fifty of them, sir!"
After a few minutes of your marksmen firing, the army gets close enough that your soldiers can take good enough shots, and your riflemen begin shooting from the snow, and the soviets shoot back. Due to your hidden soldiers, trenches for your machine gunners, and your marksmen's hiding place in the trees, the soviets panic and begin shooting at anything that moves. Unfortunately, this includes at your base, and you begin taking casualties.
Please wait until others get some turns in, and I'll tell you how the battle ends.

You reload your rifle and aim through the scope at the incoming forces, and scan them for any major targets. You see one with a fancy looking hat on, talking into a radio, and you shoot at him, assuming he's a radioman or an officer. The shot hits him in the ear from the side, splattering blood and brains all over the man behind him. Other than him, there are no other priority targets you can find, only regular soldiers with rifles and machineguns.

Your squad leader nods and motions for the squad to sneak around the side of the building and try to get behind the central building, the opposite side of where the patrols are. You go one at a time.
After you and five others go, the last one is your squad leader. He dashes over, and just before he gets behind cover a patrol sees him and shouts something in German, though you don't hear a commotion. Your squad leader tells you all to stand at the ready in case he decides to check it out.
You all back up as you stare at the area where he might come from, and he walks forward, staring out towards the bunker, but doesn't look towards you. No one takes a shot, and eventually he turns and leaves, never noticing you.
You all sneak towards the building and eventually get inside, guns at the ready, only to find a building full of wounded soldiers, all unconcious.
What will you do?

There are no bazooka soldiers nearby, nor any bazookas in your bunker.
You begin taking shots at the machine gunners, and fire off your entire clip. The first shot hits one in the chest, and he falls. The second hits one in the eye, the bullet going into his brain and causing his skull to shatter, though you don't see that. Your third shot hits one in the stomach while he's shooting, causing him to fall forward, his finger still on his guns trigger, shooting about five of his comrades in the back. Your forth shot misses. Your fifth shot hits one in the arm, causing him to drop his gun.
You reload.
Shoot your last clip, or wait? There's ammo in the back of the bunker, but the other marksmen were less careful and wasted all of theirs, and are currently going back to get more. There's not a lot of ammo there for your gun, you might want to get more while you can.

Your commanding officer nods. "I was thinking the same thing." Your squad takes out their knives, one weapon you don't have. They begin cutting the throats of the wounded, who don't make a sound and die silently. After, you sneak out of the building and head towards the bunker.
As you enter, you see one patrol inside, sleeping in a chair instead of patrolling. The stairs leading down are behind him, and the way the bunker is, you can see directly inside from it's windows. Your move.

OMG! PT BOATS! They are so weak on Call Of Duty World At War.I destroy them easily with a helicopter.The helicopter has machine guns and takes down the PT boats easily. If you dont belive me go on YouTube and enter Call Of Duty World At War mission Black Cats. You will see a lot of PT boats being destroyed because i did that mission too.
