Espionage Wars V6: It's like a party but everyone's throwing up.

Someone was invading Turkey and Karaq is having a civil war in the middle east, that's about it. Both of those conflicts have gone kind of dead at the moment, though.
KK, do you think Iceland would allow a PMC (The closest thing they've got to security is heavy duty riot police) to purchase and use a large amount of land away from tourist areas, i.e the snowy mountainous areas north of all the green valleys? Trying to think of places to base myself, was also thinking Greenland which would probably be more accomdating due to their very small population and large land.
Actually change Iceland to Greenland, think that might work?
Anywhere 'allows' PMCs to set up in Espionage Wars. It might not be realistic, but for the sake of the game you can set up any kind of faction anywhere you want. (within reason, of course.)
You can set up in Greenland if you like, but if you go too far north you'll probably get aircraft dropping polite "go away" letters from Grey Storm and slightly less polite high explosives if those are ignored.
The Ural Mountains are off-limits unless you want to get smacked by two different factions.

1. [B]Orion Arms[/B]
2. Lawful Neutral
Orion Arms is an arms manufacturer, which primarily focuses on the designing and improvement of multiple weapons systems.
It also serves as a PMC, while having Riot control as a side wing to bring in more funding and order during conflicts.
The late owner, a history nut, orderd a few personal productions and improvement orders which means Orion now exports remakes of old tanks and weapons for muesems, collectors and reeanctors. Some of these work ever better than their old counterparts, meaning they are still used with Orion themselves.
(Cleaned up, easier to read. Riot control is now less [B]edgey as hell[/B] and more calm and collected.)

[QUOTE]Daxter was quite the history nut before he popped his clogs and one of his final requests for a design was an improved (or at least one that didn't break down every 5 minutes) version of the MK5 British tank from World War 1. It made the perfect tank for destroying street barricades and the side cannons worked very well at flushing people out of alleys and side streets.[/QUOTE]

[/QUOTE]
There's nothing wrong with being a shady PMC (a lot of them are), but there's a difference between being morally ambiguous and being a disorganized, violent mob that's probably more of a problem than the rioters they're supposed to be dealing with. People wouldn't really want to hire anyone like that.
(Removed to clean up Faction Post 0 8/12/2016)
I think the main problem with your faction is that it's a mess to understand, plus you edit/add onto your post quite a bit so we don't know which point to tackle first and foremost.
Try to tone it back a bit and please thumb your images if you're going to be posting a lot of them.

For a brighter future, for a safer tomorrow
ODS aligment leans toward Neutral Good, though it is still largely Neutral.
Omicron Defense Solutions, previously Seranus Security Company, was formed around 6 year ago in Norway, Bergen.
In the past two years the Company has been changing from being a simple security firm to a PMC, when asked about the change, CEO Kristoffer Melland has announced he'd be resigning from his position as CEO, passing it to [b]Marius Gilbertsen[/b] and that this decision was made by him. The new CEO has refused to answer directly as to why it was done, but has said that it was necessary, the new CEO also introduced one of their forces commanders - [b]Captain Aleksander Nilsen.[/b] Captain Nilsen has only disclosed as being part of the the FSK, and that the PMC's troops recieve half of what FSK go through.
ODS is estimated to have around 11,000 personnel, not including civilians. ODS seems to have quite a number of jets and helicopters, the estimate to those is around 3000 and 3500, which most of those are helicopters, it's confirmed that ODS have around 1-2 Aircraft Carriers in the sea, meaning the rest of the airforce are stationed in a base possibly somewhere in Norway or on more aircraft carriers.
ODS equipment is changing at the moment, they're phasing out their G36K's for AK12's, although the process is taking it's time, the AK12 is replacing the G36K as the main rifle.
ODS seems to be deploying only it's Rangers for operations inside Norway and for the most part outside of Norway as well. Though it might be only for the time being.

I'll change Orion to a purely arms manufacturing PMC then, it seems a much better decision. Thanks for the criticism.
Hey McTbone, are you keeping your country Tbonia or the new name?
Prob keeping Tbonia
The new name was cooler doe

[QUOTE]War in Turkey continues. Despite large efforts, Coalition forces are still unable to fully wrest control of Silivri from Turkish army. Order's troops were engaged in intensive street battles for the last few weeks, aiding their allies in takeover of coastal southern part of the city.[/QUOTE]

[QUOTE]Fortified Turkish positions inside buildings are significantly slowing down the advance towards the northern part. Last few days were marked by several minor successes by Crusaders, in which some of these hard points were stormed and captured, allowing ERR to advance a little further. [/QUOTE]
[IMG]http://www.wduwant.com/index_uploads/uploads/253b6e7be.jpg[/IMG]
[QUOTE]But even then, the situation is turning into a quagmire. Casualties are mounting quickly for the Order, as several units were already wiped out during a massive Turkish counterattack yesterday, and a couple more are stuck and desperately defending their positions while awaiting reinforcements.
Turkish army is pouring more and more units into the city, hoping to sufficiently whittle down the advancing Coalition forces. Right now, Turkish have control of [B]Silivri prison complex[/B], which is adjacent to [B]E84 highway[/B] - a major road that's used by them to resupply and reinforce their units fighting in the northern city part. Capturing the prison complex would be a major tactical victory, allowing the Coalition to cut off enemies in Silivri and to defeat them in short time.
[/QUOTE]
[IMG]http://www.wduwant.com/index_uploads/uploads/0e039aa.jpg[/IMG]
[QUOTE]Since allied forces are already well within a striking distance to the prison, the operation will begin immediately. The Order will send their 2 full brigades (composed of 2000 soldiers each) to aid ERR and several Reichstadt units in this important attack. No doubt the objective will be fiercely defended and casualties suffered, so before departing every Crusader receives a blessing from Order's preachers, strengthening their resolve and fanaticism.

Anyone know where everyone gets their bullet hole effects? I really need some.
How many of you guys use SFM as opposed to Gmod?
I would like to try SFM, but I don't think it has all the props that Gmod does. I really need PS or some photo editing software though...
Gimp should help, but off-topic/PM/Steam might be a better place to discuss this
Sorry Tbone, just thought I'd post this here as I don't have him on steam. I was going to switch to SFM, but I found that the model that I us for Kraaivuur bugged out with their yes and I couldn't seem to find a fix online. So I'm back to using edited Gmod.
On the other hand I found SFM extremely easy to use and pose with, eve n if 90% of the tutorials are for TF2 stuff, the textures also look cleaner somehow, but that might just be my imagination.
