[QUOTE]An Interview with [I]Hector Van Reyes,[/I] the leader of the Order.[/QUOTE]
[QUOTE][B]Mr Reyes, thank you very much for agreeing to this interview. Not many people know who you are, or about the Order in general…. That was until the war in Turkey. How has the war in Turkey affected the Order’s reputation and acknowledgment by the rest of the world?[/B]
First of all, I'd like to thank you for inviting me for an interview. I'm delighted to know that our struggle is becoming known throughout the world. Now, to answer the question, Order's image has changed a lot. In the past, we were fighting against our enemies with words and like many like to call it - "propaganda". But have we achieved anything? Not much. Godless heretics of Vatican continue to do nothing for our failing faith, despite the vast amounts of wealth and influence they have ammased throughout the centuries. Order on the other hand, is the true christian entity, that displays it's love for God and his Son through real actions. We have marched to Constantinople and taken back what belongs to us. We didn't just talk, we fought, we died, we killed our enemies... And of course, it left a lasting impression all over the world. Many faithful people hail us as heroes, saviours of our faith and the greatest inspiration for all the christians. Other though, whose minds have been poisoned by Vatican's fake pacifism, debouched liberal propaganda, call us terrorists. Even compare us to mohammedan AWA bandits. So in conclusion, Order is now seen as a legit, militant organization that actually has power to solidify and defend our values where required, in contrast to the old Order which was attempting to win the hearts of the faithful through words, rather than action.
[B]Do you see a future in Order involvement with other conflicts?[/B]
Of course. we won't stop our participation as long as christian dominance and honor is preserved in numerous parts of the world. In these turbulent times, new conflicts start while the fires of the old ones are still not extinguished. Almost everywhere new heretic movements appear, constantly challenging christian values, claiming lives of the faithful. It is our solemn duty to strike back at them. And I, as the founder of The Order, promise that will happen.
[B]Are there any conflicts approaching in the future?[/B]
The question of Turkey is still not resolved. Order's presence will remain there as long as the safety of Holy Wisdom, and all the pilgrims that have already started to flock there, is ensured. That of course includes support of our Roman allies. When speaking about other parts of the world, we are closely monitoring the situation in Indonesia. Calls for help have reached us from local christian communities there... It's all I can say right now.
[B]Whats life like for anyone who joins your organisation?[/B]
We all are devoted to God and his Son. Our lives revolve around our faith and our holy mission to protect and empower it. It's most what outsiders should know. Though if you really want to know more, ask our monks. They are not very talkative, but you could do well to personally ask one of them. It would provide a helpful perspective to those who are interested in joining the ranks of our monastic or clerical institutions.
[B]What is your opinion on the Dominican Crisis, especially considering the religious murder?[/B]
It's never good when fellow christians kill each other. It divides us, makes us weak. The murder of priest is a tragedy, that's for sure. But I do believe that nobody would even hurt him if he wasn't involved personally in the webs of this war... All we can do now is to pray to God so that the new priest won't fail in his holy duty as a shepherd of the community.
[B]What is your opinion on the development of the Sunni state in Karaq and the terrorist acts being comitted there?[/B]
Order has no business in Karaq. It's an Islamic nation, with all the problems their... "faith" brings.[/QUOTE]

[QUOTE]An interview with Vsevolod Yelchin, a 25 year old corporal in the Volhynian Army. He
his currently stationed in the Dominican Republic.[/QUOTE]
[QUOTE][B]Thank you for agreeing for this interview Corporal, as you must be very busy during this time. [/B]
Thank you for wanting to interview me. We have been training DRA fighters, and patrolling the outskirts of Peurto Pala. So we definitely ain't bored.
[B]The Tsardom of Volhynia, one of the nations assisting the Dominican rebels, is a country with a rich history and contemporary political importance. It makes no decision lightly, something important to consider when looking at war in the Republic. How do you feel about the Second Dominican Civil War?[/B]
It's new for us. We are trained to fight in Eastern European forest's and not jungles. It has been very interesting and challenging so far. But we must do everything, to help the DRA.
[B]The Tsardom’s (and the CSN at large) ally, the D.R.A, is the very cause of this civil war. What have you experienced fighting alongside them?[/B]
The morale among the DRA fighters is perfect. They clearly show, that they want to win this war against a corrupt government, and now an invading country. I have massive respect for them.
[B]What are your thoughts on the C.M.G, the OPFOR in this conflict?[/B]
They are a bunch of cowards hiding behind big guns. And I hate them even more, after the attack on Pourto Plata. Many generations will truely suffer from their idiotic actions.
[B]What are your thoughts on the war in Turkey?[/B]
The ERR has every right to take back, what is rightfully theirs. I have a brother and a cousin who's in the marine corps. They are currently in Galilpoli. They've told me that they will move towards Istanbul, to assist the ERR there.
[B]What is your view on the CSN at large?[/B]
The CSN a good thing for Volhynia and the other member nations, both economically and military wise. I've enjoyed training and fighting with the other militaries.
[B]Do you have a particular favourite country in the CSN, besides your own?[/B]
I very much enjoy cooporating with the Samogitian soldiers. They are a professional and well equipped military. So.. Samogitia.[/QUOTE]

Race to Kyiv (Kiev)
[QUOTE]After the A.E.U's declaration as a sovereign nation, they were hungry to expand, but ran into a problem out of the box. The A.E.U was contacted by the Duchy and Tsardom on how to split Ukraine, but the A.E.U wanted Central Ukraine. They wanted Kyiv. The Duchy were close to agreeing to the Empire's terms, until the Tsardom's pride got the best of them, immediately declining the terms. All talks have ceased as the A.E.U goes dark, but not that quietly.[/QUOTE]

The A.E.U has a lot more ground to cover that the Tsardom, and they've made it their do-or-die goal to capture Kyiv. Without Kyiv, a new Ukraine cannot be completed.[/QUOTE]

[QUOTE] Austino Peligro arrives in Gallipoli to interview Sigimund Nowakowski, a Sergeant in the Samitogian Army.[/QUOTE]
[QUOTE][B]Thank for you agreeing to their interview Sergeant. It feels strange to come to this place, Gallipoli, whilst it rests from yet another invasion that has graced its shores. How does it feel to be echoing the past but in the context of the war in Turkey?[/B]
Its an honour to have this interview, well i once heard the stories about gallipoli how brits fought turks to secure the trade route to russian empire which back then was also vital to us during the war, while it failed it gave way to foundation of our nation and being this place brings pride ,but we must focus to the future and it the shame his majesty kept us here , me and my boys are excited for upcoming campaign in turkey if we are lucky , if not it might be ukraine.
[B]What are your views on the CSN nations and the CSN as a whole? Do you have any wishes for the future of the CSN?[/B]
I personally like Romans, while their officers and commanding officers are imbeciles and idiots who believe in outdated tactics and pride ,but their average footsoldiers are probably one of the most nicest people i met their humorous, Loyal and most of all very cooperative. besides romans i like Volhynians , i still i have my reasons to dislike them ,we been in war one year prior afterall, but in all honestly Eastern Legion got what was coming to them and Volhynians might aswell redeemed themselves in some way.
[B]What is your view on the Turkey War as a whole?[/B]
This war its not just roman goverment being batshit crazy, this war is to retake what was taken form these people their land and their country, i know this from my Roman Comrades who fight to retake whats is rightfully theirs. yet its the shame seeing all these young boys sent to war that is massacre . hopefully this war is for better good and romans chose to be merciful to their new turkish citizens integrating them into the new society.
[B]What is your opinion on the events in the Dominican Republic, as well as your views on the DRA rebels and CGM invaders?[/B]
CGM are nothing more than nazi scum, they say they came to stop this instability and for What bombing the fields and cities with chemicals that will permanently cause people and their future generations so much suffering. their nothing more than colonial herreran dogs. I really hope the DRA war ends in the establishment of the new goverment that will fix the mess and they will make make CGM pay for what their done.
[B]Now, more importantly, what is your opinion, thoughts and feelings too, on the invasion of the Ukraine by the A.E.U after they had talks with your country and the Tsdardom?[/B]
Imperials just randomly popped up, they dont even have legitimate dynasty on their throne , last i heard is that they use oversized tank prototypes that make them look like fools, once the ukraine belonged to GDL our predecessor ,we made sure the land didnt fall in the hands of Mongolian scum and were not gonna stand by and watch how these lands fall to the hands of pretender and his joke of the empire. The Black bear will crush them and alongside our volhynian allies we will secure and hold these lands in rightfull hands.[/QUOTE]

Oh I feel fine, thank you sir.

[B]You are a veteran of the DR-DRA Conflict, yes?[/B]
Yes, I am one of the few still here from that conflict. My prayers go out to all those members of the DRA who have met and befriended me in person.

[B]What do you think about the Empire pulling you and your comrades out of the conflict?[/B]
It wasn't right. We left the DRA out to dry just to help take one damn city. It's ridiculous! I just hope that the DRA can win without us. They've fought long and hard to free themselves from tyranny.

[B]Now that's weird, coming from a paid mercenary. On to the next question! What are your thoughts about an impending hot war between the A.E.U and the CSN?[/B]
Now THIS is gonna be weird coming from a member of a PMC. As much as I hate to say it, I don't want to fight the CSN. Who was there for us when our smaller aircraft had to get across the ocean to the DR? The Duchy! They provided our pilots with a place to land and refuel with one of their carriers out in the Caribbean. Now I will say it, I made a few friends from the Duchy, and they are a kind people. I don't want to fight them.

[B]If you had a say in the Emperor's strategic meetings with his top generals, what would you suggest?[/B]
I heard that the Emperor is willing to pursue peace talks again with the CSN. I would say that the Emperor should come up with a compromise that would evenly split Ukraine between all of us. We may not get Kyiv, but we'll get land out of it nonetheless. The Tsardom is filled with fanatical soldiers that will fight to the death to take Kyiv since they believe that it rightfully belongs to them, while ours are not as fanatical. Do you think that one damn city is worth all seven hundred thousand men of the A.E.U Imperial Army? Cause I sure as Hell don't.

[B]I couldn't agree more, but one more question. Why does your armor and gear still sport the flag of the Ukrainian government?[/B]
We haven't gotten replacements yet.

[QUOTE]But meanwhile, while all of this was happening, the A.E.U was completing final testing and field trials to succeed the failed T-17 Prot. Heavy Tank, designed by the now famed Alexander Bak. Dr. Bak was the brainchild behind Ob'yekt 85 prototype which has now evolved into the modern mainstay of the Empire's tank fleet, the T-85 Molotok. The T-17 Prot. Heavy Tank, also known as Ob'yekt 2017-A, was too costly and was overall a flop; there were just too many downs that outweighed the ups. Therefore, Dr. Bak had to redeem himself, and has done so by creating a new prototype that has passed many tests without fail. The Empire is hoping to field it in sufficient quantities should peace talks with the CSN break down again in order to gain control of the ground war.[/QUOTE]

I wouldn’t put it as Foreign policy. I would like to put it as, Have we helped push the scales to our client’s favor. And unfortunately, I don’t have an Answer for you right now, the Gecko Group has only been around for less than a Decade, so that remains to be decided.
[B]A female, Asian and autistic CEO. Quite a trio of suprising labels that are often applied to you in descriptions. How have these 3 factors affected your life at Gecko?[/B]
I’m a special case of a girl being at the Right place at the Wrong time. I wish that I actually worked up to my position, it would’ve been a great inspiration to girls my age. My Asian Background shouldn’t apply to me anymore, I’m a Third Generation American, I can barely speak Cantonese as it is. I’m about as American as an Asian can get, that said the work habits and culture from my father have shaped the way we work here at Gecko. As for my Autism, it was difficult to deal with at first but it's much more manageable. People tend to think of me as handicapped, unable to think or help myself when they hear they have autism. Most of them only hear that word on the news and never truly understand it. I work just fine with my autism.
[B]How do you feel the company has changed under your leadership since your father's passing?[/B]
It’s too soon to tell, All I can give you is a honest opinion. But from what I can tell you, I’m optimistic. I have been Talking with the R&D section of the company, we have a lot of things coming down the pipeline which you can expect to see at the keystone soon.
[B]What is your view, CEO-wise, on the conflicts such as Turkey, Costa Rica and the Dominican Republic?[/B]
Turkey is a lost cause, I expect most of country to be flying a Roman Flag in a few years. Costa Rica is a bit worrisome, but not as worrying as the insurgents in the Yucatan Peninsula. The Dominican Republic Conflict right now is providing a much needed Cash boost to the company, We are supplying much needed materials to the CGM to aid in their conflict. If the situation blows over, I may have to send in troops to intervene.
[B]Personally however, what are your views on those conflicts?[/B]
I think it’s a shame Turkey is losing to those war criminals playing dress up. But then again their government might be even more twisted, so I see it as a lesser of two evils. But their allies make me a bit worried, especially that Church that kills in the name of their god, its about as bad as AWA in the Middle East. Costa Rica is the same as every other Central and South American Country, their government’s are always changing. As for the Dominican Republic, That Diego Ramos needs to know when he’s losing, and surrender for the sake of his people.
[B]What is your view on the CSN?[/B]
I can mostly respect them, While I may not agree with most of their actions, I can see why the they to the things we see. They are at open to PMCs, as we hold good trade relations with the Grand Duchy, and employ about five thousand of their citizens in MRAP production in their country.
[B]What is your view on the Central Pact?[/B]
That remains to be seen. Their views on Private Military Corporations make me a bit weary about relations with them, primarily Tchvonia. I would love to open relations with the Central Pact, but I’m not sure they’ll return the Favor. I also see that there is a lot of turmoil between their nations , but they are much larger than the CSN and deserve the respect that comes with it.(edited)

Even then, the Chilean force has proven to be much tougher than expected and the Joint forces of the 3 countries have been considerably pushed back, the fighting had become almost entirely urban at this point where the Platine and allied forces have reinforced their defences strongly, the Chilean soldiers having a hard time getting past those lines, suffering large casualties. In the air, the Platine and TPA forces have also been scoring considerable victories. On this morning of the 16th of May, 1 Chilean F-16 was succesfully downed by Platine F-4.[/QUOTE]

[QUOTE]The Empire was finally able to get ahold of the Tsardom once again, and the Emperor suggested a fair split in where both sides get a huge chunk of land and the Tsardom gets their precious Kyiv. But once again, negotiations have broken down, but the Emperor had planned for this. If he couldn't take Kyiv by force before the Tsardom, he would take land instead. It was better than nothing since the Emperor wasn't prepared to fight a full-scale war against an enemy backed up by three other nations over one city. Instead, he ordered all troops moving on the West side of the two major rivers in Ukraine to turn around and head home. All A.E.U activities were then focused on annexing everything East of the Dnipro and Kahovske Vdskh Rivers and setting up a DMZ on the East side to prevent Tsardom aggression once they took the capital city of Kyiv. But the Ukrainian military won't go down without a fight.[/QUOTE]

[QUOTE]Austino Peligro travels to Yuctan, Mexico, to interview Dominic, a Terminus trooper fighting for Firebrand.[/QUOTE]
[QUOTE] [B]Hello Sergeant,It is an honor to speak with you as attempting to get an interview with any Firebrand member has been a challenge due to our short staff but this interview is more than rewarding for the effort we have taken. How was your time in the Dominican Army? Do you miss it?[/B]
I had a good time while I was in but I felt I was stagnating while there. Do I miss it though? Kind of, but I felt I needed to move on.
[B]Firebrand is famed for its aggression against Paramilitary Companies. This is understandable but like many troopers of Firebrand, most of them have personal convictions and reasons for their dislike of PMCs. So, why did you decide to join Firebrand?[/B]
As I said previously, I felt that I needed to move on. I wanted to see more of the world but I also still felt the urge to be a soldier. I just didn't want to be tied down to one place. I wasn't going to get that from staying in the Dominican Republic, the most I could even hope for would be a peace keeping mission but I didn't feel like playing babysitter... Firebrand is very mobile so I found that interesting and I'd constantly be going from place to place. Another thing is I was tired of hearing on the news about all those mercenary groups using various places as their own personal playground to war against each other. Firebrand opened up an opportunity for me and I jumped at it.
[B]What was Panama like for Firebrand troops, in general, as well as your personal experience? What is your view on how the post-war troubles and riots were dealt with by CenPac troops? Do you have any regrets?[/B]
Honestly, it was a tactical and logistical nightmare for all of those involved and especially us. This was Firebrand's first real involvement in a massive conflict and everything went wrong from the beginning. We came there to help topple a corrupt goverment by causing civilian unrest but that plan fell apart immediately. From the initial miscommunications with Tchvonia and their continuous airstrikes, the failed reinforcements from Bolivaria and Karaq, oh and the constant lack of food and supplies.... [I]sighs[/I] I'm surprised we were even able to push the Panamanians back at all! Fighting as a militia soldier while allied bombs were falling on you and scrounging for weapons and ammo from the dead or wounded was a miserable experience but it's something I'll never forget and those of us who made it through grew tougher as a result. After the conflict was over we were relieved by fresh troops from the Dominion of New Hansa so because of this we never had involvement in any sort of reconstruction or aid for the civilians. Although I feel bad about it I'm glad we didn't end up getting bogged down there afterwards. That was Bolivaria's problem at the end of the day, not ours.
[B]Similar questions are to be asked for South Africa. What was your expeirance? Do you approve of the actions of your allies? Do you have any regrets?
[/B]South Africa was a short incident and we were on the offensive throughout the entire conflict. Civilian casualties were incredibly low while enemy casualties were incredibly high. If it wasn't for Tchvonia's air superiority and the bulk of New Hansa forces watching our backs, maybe things would have swung in a different direction but we came out on top and obliterated the GCMU. This conflict would end up sending shockwaves across the world and scare a lot of those other PMC groups and I was glad to have been a part of it, no regrets.
[B]How has Firebrand affected your life?[/B]
Hmm, it's definently changed my views of the world... Some days I feel like a realist with a combination of pessimism... but most times I feel a bit optimistic for the future or at least I try to. Other than that, I guess it's made me become a more responsible and motivated person overall.
[B]Has life in Terminus been any different from the standard infantry?[/B]
Well there's definently more training, a lot harder training. You gotta work to be the best though, most of us are veterans and survivors of Panama who volunteered for the Terminus Battalion. Another difference is that regular militia have many varied roles where as Terminus Battalion is used primarily as Alpha Teams and we're good at what we do. Hit them hard and fast before they know what's going on.
[B]Now, for the elephant in the room. You are a Dominican national, an ex-serviceman in fact. A second civil war has erupted in your home country between the D.R.A and the government, with the CSN and CMG backing up their chosen sides. The country is in military and political chaos, with public support starting to lean towards the DRA after the horrific chemical attacks.
What, is your opinion however? Your views and thoughts on the DRA rebels, CMG invaders, CSN involvement, the fact your country is now currently in a second civil war?[/B]
Ah this question, I get asked that even by my team... I had heard rumors that we were going to get involved ourselves but that was nixed fairly quickly. Well.. the truth is I don't really feel any actual attatchment anymore to the country. Right now I'm just like anyone else, an outsider looking in... Just waiting to see what happens next.[/QUOTE]

[QUOTE]An interview with François Vasseur, a Corporal in the Tacticus Solutions Security Division. [/QUOTE]
[QUOTE][B]Thank for you agreeing to this interview Mr Vasseur. It must be a busy time in Lille?[/B]
Always busy, feels just like Paris both day and night. Less crowded though.
[B]How was your expeirance in Operation Thunderbolt?[/B]
We were tasked with guarding a power station for Tripoli. Spent a good amount of time keeping the rebels at bay but as we know the Brits like to play hardball, woke up to one of their jets bombing the power station to hell, after that we were ordered to exfiltrate from the country through Egypt, and that we did.
[B]How was your time Sierra Leone?[/B]
Similar to Thunderbolt, we were tasked with maintaining order while Flound Co built Freetown up. When the rebel offensive came, we held the line tooth and nail and after about a week their spearhead was reduced to ruin. After about a month, their activity had been a distant memory but Flound Co up and abandoned everything. Ms Homstead was furious at the time, had us scuttle anything of value before we shipped back to France.
[B]What do you think about the CitiGrid project and its future?[/B]
[I]It's the way of the future.[/I] When we arrived, Lille was a bit of a mess with crime and traffic but after we began installation everything started to become more synchronized. We've still got much to do but the way I see it, CitiGrid will turn this place into a well oiled machine.
[B]Where do you think a CitiGrid will be installed next?[/B]
The Platine Commonwealth has been showing a lot of interest in CitiGrid, most likely there if that damned war wasn't going on.
[B]What is your view on the CSN?[/B]
Those the other not-Central Pact guys, yeah? Don't really have much thoughts on them, genocide isn't an answer to anything though. My father fought the nazis and learning that fascism is making a return is unnerving.
[B]What is your view on the Ukraine invasion?[/B]
Ukraine is being fought over again? Good God, I thought those people would finally get back into track after the four year long conflicts that happened. Either way, hopefully the civilians aren't in the fray like they were in Odessa.
[B]What is your view on the Dominican War?[/B]
Another revolution, another day passes. Thankfully it's not another socialist one because those were getting irritating. If chemical weapons were really used then I hope the responsible parties are brought to an international court and convicted, only the most horrific of punishments should be saved for them.
[B]Thank for your time.[/B][/QUOTE]

[QUOTE][I]Istanbul Turkey:

After months of fighting the ERR combined with Order forces bunch through the last stronghold in Istanbul and take the main international airport, where Turkish defenders slowly evacuated many of the last civilians left in the city. While some aircraft departing, ERR forces shot at them destroying a number of them trying to leave the airport. However, the main force smashed into the airport later this evening, heavy casualties mounted on the ERR side and the Turkish defenders evacuated for died fighting the advancing ERR and Order forces.

Finally after months of fighting Istanbul has been declared a victorious battle for the ERR and CSN. So far an estimated; 10,000 ERR troops have been killed in the fighting overall and around 8,500 for the Turkish defenders. but the real tragedy is in the civilian deaths - since the Turkish campaign began ERR missile artillery has devastated towns, villages, and cities. Also, the horrid treatment of refugees are also to blame for the high number so far it is feared more than 100,000 civilians have been killed and the numbers are still growing. Also, since the Turkish government declined the ERR demands earlier this month, F.C paramilitary forces have been seen moving from active zones and vanishing deep in the Turkish countryside, ERR officials claim an investigation is underway and will track the extremist group hoping to prevent further atrocities that may occur.

[QUOTE]An interview with Silvia Dawson, CEO of Trinity Corporation.[/QUOTE]
[QUOTE][B]Thank you for agreeing to this interview, Ms. Dawson. You're the second CEO to be interviewed for our series and its a pleasure.[/B]
Always happy to do an interview. I hope security downstairs didn't push you around too much.
[B]Not too much, thankfully. The press understandably is not very popular around these gigantantic companies. Especially one as Trinity. I must however get right to the elephant in the room, what makes your business stand out from the crowd: the clones. How does it feel to be the CEO for a massive company that creates such an exotic 'product'?[/B]
It feels great, honestly. Trinity Corp gives the world an alternative to the use of human lives in military operations. Why send someone with families and friends off to war to be killed...when you could just send a clone? They're bred for this. Its all they know, and they happily do it. And I say this from personal experience.
I also would like to state that we don't just produce clones. We also develop advanced cybernetics and medical equipment. And firearms, like we have since 1958.
[B]Have you faced any opposition from activists? Political opponents?[/B]
Of course. There are always those that think that the clones should have the rights that humans have. Those sorts of people we can simply brush aside. The clones are tools, and are used as such. Nothing more. There are also those that think the clones are 'abominations of science' that need to be destroyed.
I'm sure there are factions out there in the world that would love to see that happen. Which it won't, you can fucking trust me on that. We're here to help humanity. Not destroy it and replace it, as much as some of those dumb fucks would like to believe.
[B]I can understand the protection of your assets. Very valuable ones in fact. They are valuable not only for their creation but also their skills... which leads me on to my next question. In your opinion, how did Trinity fare in the Syria conflict?[/B]
I believe we faired extremely well. We steamrolled over the AWA and its allies in the Middle East. And with Tchvonia's surgical strike, the head was cut off the snake that was the AWA. The conflict also granted us important data to improve how we operate with the clones in the future. So the next time a group like the AWA pops up again, they'll die a hell of a lot quicker.
[B]Talking of CenPac, what is your view on it and its anti-PMC views?[/B]
It's about the same as most nations that fear or just don't like PMCs. They just decided to form an alliance so they can gang up on a PMC if it tries to do something major. Frankly, I don't care as long as they don't jump on us for something fucking trivial.
[B]How do you view your competitors? Such as Fregata, Papilon, Tacticus, or Gecko?[/B]
Tacticus is a bit of a friendly rival of ours. Yes, we do compete against one another in the PMC market, but we're on relatively good terms otherwise. Occasionally we'll have training exercises together. I know Mr. Sandström personally, and I even have one of their TS OS SmartHub systems installed in one of my homes.
Trinity hasn't had really much interaction with Papilon, but we also see them in a similar light to Tacticus. Still rivals, of course, as we're both in the same business. Hopefully we will have a chance to work alongside Papilon sometime in the future.
Gecko seems to be one of the new players in the PMC game here in the United States, having been around literally only a fucking decade. The new kid on the block, and apparently its run by an autistic teenager now. Seriously? How old is she even? Is she even out of high school? Who in their right fucking mind would put a teenager in charge of a multi-million dollar group of companies? An AUTISTIC teenager at that? Fucking christ.
Fregata? They're just some kind of growth latched onto the AEU that calls themselves a PMC.
[B]How do you feel about the invasion of Ukraine?[/B]
The AEU are basically just like those ERR guys and the crazy Order fuckers in Turkey, just without the zealots. I'm surprised the Russians haven't stepped in to slap them back down and save more 'ethnic Russians'.
[B]How do you feel about the Turkey War?[/B]
Oooh, here we go. Alright, you have these ERR guys that think they're gonna bring back the Roman Empire, and spread it across the world. And then you have the Order. Fucked up extremist Christians that think that the world needs another set of good medieval style crusades. Put the two together and set them loose in Turkey, and you have a shitshow. That's how I feel about it. It is a utter shitshow, and the Order proves what a militarized religion is like if the Children of God or the AWA didn't prove that already. Both of those groups deserve to die. There's no place in this day and age for either of them.
[B]What are your views on the Dominican Civil War?[/B]
Another shitshow, though less shitty and with different actors.
[B]What are the current plans for Detroit, if any?[/B]
People bitched and moaned when we went through the proper channels to turn it into a prison colony. At the moment, any plans for Detroit are currently on hold, as per order of my boss.
[B]Are there any conflicts Trinity is planning to join?[/B]
Hmm...well, we're planning to investigate the attacks on foreigners in Japan. That might blow into one. We're also planning to send troops to assist forces in South Korea in case the Children of God decide to head the OTHER way. As for any other conflicts, who knows?[/QUOTE]

We finally took Istanbul yesterday night, and we are moving to sweep the east outskirts of the city to make sure the Turks are driven out of this holy city for good! Yes, we did have some delays before the attack but now we are target and I feel confident that we will win this war if all goes well - also we must thank our allies, esspecially The Order for fighting and sheding their blood beside us in battle!
[B]What is your opinion on the A.E.U and its Ukraine in invasion?[/B]
Ukraine invasion so far what I have seen is a mess, where a ill-prepared attack has seen to show on their forces and their equipment, I do not know much on the A.E.U - however! From their invansion I would say the new nation seems to be trying to show their strength, something the E.R.R sees and respects however must understand their place in this part of Europe.
[B]What are your views on the Dominican conflict?[/B]
The D.R? Oh! You mean the conflict that some CSN nations are in? Yea, what we have seen its a mess - with a bunch of foolish countries trying to stop a populare revolt from their masses - now even though the E.R.R is not in support of this we must say they should do what they feel is best for their nation.
[B]How is the social situation in the E.R.R?[/B]
The social situation is decent, we the NRP have the masses under control and even though we have had a few protests and populare strikes they were swiftly pacifyied and our great Consul Titus Scipio will lead us the Roman people to a new era!
[B]What is your opinion on the Liberals?[/B]
Ha! Liberals? Liberals are nothing but disgusting vermin! They want to push workers rights, also Diversity! Haha, this is a joke all their ideas of socialism and social justice - thankfully unlike other countries around us whom are weak and let the liberals take over. We! Strong Romans have rid their political sector from our senate and our glorius State Security have hunted down many of the heretics! Ave!
[B]What is your opinion on the Conservatives?[/B]
The Conservatives are a decent bunch from the Senate, would we say we always agree, nay - but they are decent nontheless and we enjoy their presence in the NRP and those whom are indepe

[QUOTE][I]Near Istanbul:

Early this morning, a small town on the E80 highway to Istanbul witnessed something beyond their horror, the war was enough for them but this shocked them with fear driven deep that will make them have a reason to be fearful of the new owners of their land. The woke up to crucified individuals lined up on the highway, after authorities were called in - it was discovered the individuals crucified were non other then BWI employees that disappeared several weeks ago - a letter was found pinned on the CEO; saying "This is what happens to heretics who dare try to oppose us!". Not more is know besides the suspects may be the ERRSS, since last they were seen was at an airport in the ERR being hauled away by the State Security.

No official statement was given on the matter by the ERR government and all other investigations were closed with the bodies being strung down and burned in a pit.[/I][/QUOTE]

[QUOTE][B]SANTO DOMINGO: DOMINICAN REPUBLIC[/B]
After the CMG's massive offensive, the D.R.A has lain quiet as massive artillery strikes pound their positions. Too busy to do any offensives whilst getting killed or helping refugees, they go into hiding in their outward positions..... until today.
Due to the relativly contained rebellion being in the North, business as usual continues in Santo Domingo as business owners count their debts as tourism drops to record lows, peoples anger towards the Dominican government for the horrendous chemical attack being fought only by supporters of the government, calling the DRA's claims of chemical attacks "stupid nasty lies!".
As the government begins to get more and more relaxed with the CMG's assistance, they start laying down the groundwork for the prosecution of DRA members. Informants within and around the government's outer layers inform the DRA of a legal plot, stirring operatives into action.[/QUOTE]

[QUOTE]Upon finding the proposed bill (given to them by a politican in a less than fortunate situation ^) it is discovered that all troops found in DRA uniform would be given 50 years to life imprisonment.
The discovery of the document however is tainted by the fact it is a draft, meaning the governemt has a chance to change their future policy but their credibility is hampered yet again by DRA efforts.[/QUOTE]
