Mason Posted December 13, 2010 Report Posted December 13, 2010 [center][color="#A0522D"][b]Occasionally, the perfect combination of desire, determination, skill, and mettle come together to forge something truly special. When this happens, legend is born. That time is now. Welcome to the UNSC.[/b][/color] [img]http://i60.servimg.com/u/f60/15/80/18/24/recrui10.jpg[/img][/center] The UNSC alliance is a multi-sphere alliance based on the UNSC Marine Corps featured in the HALO gaming series. The UNSC exemplifies honor, courage, respect, and the brotherhood that binds her members. Our Officers have worked painstakingly to create an alliance that is not only true in virtue, but that brings new and unique elements to Digiterra, not seen before. Such elements include our [i]Merit System[/i] and [i]Events Calendar[/i]. [color="#FF0000"][u][b]What to expect:[/b][/u][/color] [center][img]http://i60.servimg.com/u/f60/15/80/18/24/basici10.png[/img][/center] When you enlist in the UNSC, you will become a Recruit, upon approval of your enlistment request. New recruits report to the UNSC Training Facility C, Military Reservation 01478-B. We offer incremental phases of training for those wishing to advance their careers, but recruits only need to graduate from BASIC to become Marines, providing them with full membership in the UNSC. Graduating BASIC and becoming a Marine is the highest honor. As reward for your completion, you will be advanced to the rank of Private and receive your first merit ribbon. [center][img]http://i60.servimg.com/u/f60/15/80/18/24/privat10.png[/img][/center] In addition, new nations (under 4k NS) will receive a [color="#556B2F"][b]$6 million[/b][/color] aid package. Your next step will be to report in to the Platoon you have been assigned to. The UNSC Marines operate under the 117th Marine Regiment, 7th Battalion - Alpha Company. We're a structured outfit, and a little on the crazy side. [color="#0000FF"][i][b]What is the Merit System?[/b][/i][/color] The merit system is a points based award system. It awards you for things such as posts, topics created, members recruited, and more. The logic behind the merit system is to promote activity. [color="#0000FF"][i][b]So, what do I do with the merit points?[/b][/i][/color] In the UNSC, it's not just your knowledge of the game that counts. It's your commitment to the alliance. Merit points are required in order to advance in rank, whether you choose to remain in the enlisted ranks or further your career as a NCO, and eventually, an Officer. If you're not showing up and getting involved with the alliance, you'll never earn the points, and you'll never get the promotions. We also realize that not everyone has the time or energy to get involved as a NCO or Officer. You can remain in the enlisted ranks and still earn your merit points to reach the highest grade. Doing so will afford you other benefits along the way. [color="#0000FF"][i][b]What is the Events Calendar?[/b][/i][/color] Every month, beginning in January, 2011, we'll list a series of activities planned for that month. These activities are meant to keep our members interested and active. Some events, such as open roleplays, will be available to the general public. Other events range from contests and giveaways to release dates for our public newsletter, the [i]UNSC PRESSCORPS[/i]. You can access the calendar at any time by selecting the 'Calendar' tab at the top of our forums or review the list of events in our Calendar Events forum. [color="#0000FF"][i][b]This all sounds pretty good. Tell me more![/b][/i][/color] The UNSC is divided into 5 main Divisions, plus the Office of the Commander-in-Chief. The heads of these divisions make up the High Command, or [b]HIGHCOM[/b]. They are as follows: [list] [*]the Office of the Commander-in-Chief of the UNSC; [*]UNSC Training Facility; [*]Internal Affairs; [*]Operations; [*]Exploratory (Foreign Affairs); [*]UNSC Defense Force (Marine Corps and Special Operations; ODST) [/list] Each Division Commanding Officer trains soldiers under them who have passed the NCO Training and qualify for advancement. When positions are available, a Commanding Officer will select the candidate they wish to promote, or post a Job Posting detailing the requirements of the position(s) available and choose from those who apply. The path you choose is for you to decide. We provide the tools and we show you how to use them. [color="#0000FF"][i][b]Ok, what is Special Operations and ODST?[/b][/i][/color] If you're familiar with HALO, you know that ODST stands for 'Orbital Drop Shock Trooper'. These are specially trained Marines who drop onto planets under heavy fire in combat zones in pods, jump out and hit the ground running. Hence the phrase "Feet First Into Hell". For this reason, they are known as [i]Helljumpers[/i]. [center][img]http://i60.servimg.com/u/f60/15/80/18/24/odstpo11.jpg[/img][/center] In the UNSC alliance, the ODST aka 'Helljumpers' is reserved for those who wish to hone their combat skills and get a taste of the action. Helljumpers report in to the same forum, but this outfit is comprised of those participating in the UNSC Helljumpers squad in CN:TE (Tournament Edition). If you're interested in becoming a Helljumper, you can sign up in our forums after you become a Marine. [center]There's much more to the UNSC.
