Quick summary about you: (70 Words - Minimum) There’s not much to say about myself other than the fact that I’m 16, from the UK and I am a massive Star Wars nerd. I joined SWRP one evening with a friend a while ago because I was bored, expecting to only play it once and never look back at it again. Since then however, I’ve poured hundreds of hours into the server and reached the rank of colonel in GM and Jr Guardian in Jedi.

Why should we pick you for Battalion: (200 Words - Minimum) I believe I should be picked for Battalion due to my interest and experience with leading as well as my good activity and ability to fulfil my responsibilities consistently.

Firstly, being a GM colonel has mean I have ample experience when it comes to leading, both inside events and outside in training. I’ve always had an interest in leading; always volunteering to step in and take charge when available. Moreover, working as a GM in all sorts of roles from frontlining to defence to even reconnaissance has helped teach me an understanding of each regiment’s roles and strengths, allowing for more engaging and streamlined events.

Secondly, I am mature and can knuckle down and do my job well when the need arises. Whilst I’m not going to pretend I haven’t joked around a bit at defcon 5, without outright minging of course, I can understand the discipline required for Battalion and am perfectly capable of taking things seriously both inside and outside defcon 5 and training conditions to fit the role. My performance as GM in events and trainings helps prove this. Moreover, I am polite and respectful to people around me.

Finally, I have consistently had both excellent performance and activity for GM over the past 3 weeks, showing my great overall activity and willingness and ability to consistently fulfil my responsibilities better than required. This, along with my rank of colonel, shows my dedication and commitment towards both my regiment and the server as a whole.

 

Describe the roles and responsibilities of Battalion: (100 Words - Minimum) Battalion has numerous roles and responsibilities for different conditions. For example on defcon 5, Battalion exists to ensure the base is running smoothly, granting and denying requests of all kinds as well as holding open or mandatory trainings and sims as well as making sure people are holding trainings and sims correctly. Any problems that occur on base are Battalion’s job to correct.

At defcon 4-1 it is Battalion’s job to lead and order all regiments and advise them on what to do, as well as filling them in and informing them about developments in the current situation. However, it is the leading Battalion member and the support leader who makes the decisions for the troops with every other Battalion sticking with their regiment or fighting with the frontline, always following the lead’s orders no matter the rank. Throughout every event, the leading Battalion also has to communicate with the current event planner(s) to notify them of the situation to prevent confusion, allowing them react accordingly as to not break the event, as well as managing both briefings and debriefings to sufficiently inform people about what’s happening or what just happened and to give criticism or praise if necessary to regiments who performed well or poorly.

 

Have you ever been demoted, banned or kicked: (If so, explain why) No however I do have A warn from May 2020 about using an adrenaline shot exploit which has since expired and has been learnt from.

 

Do you understand that Battalion is a very respectable and disciplined rank: As mentioned before, I fully understand and am prepared to take this role seriously.

 

What do Battalion do during Combat, when they are not leading? (IN DETAIL) Battalion’s job during combat whilst not leading is essentially to reinforce A/their regiment or the frontline by providing their skills and weaponry to help. Battalion with regiments are not permitted to command them directly as this would be the regimental commander’s job however they are able to direct them about how to follow an order. Battalion in combat must always listen to the leading Battalion’s orders, no matter the rank difference. Whether that be to support an individual regiment, defend or search an area or join the frontline, non-leading Battalion members are expected to follow these orders at all times.

 

What are the 3 duties a Battalion Officer Cadet has to complete before getting promoted as part of his mentoring session?:

·       To do a training that includes faces, formations and questions such as a mando

·       To successfully lead an event of some kind

·       To call and do a debrief

What is the job of the Co-Leader during events?:

To put it simply, Battalion co-leaders exist to help the leading Battalion make decisions and grant and deny requests should the lead Battalion be busy. The co-leader is not allowed to have a voice amp alongside the leader or able to give out any major orders themselves.

[Bean 80]

I am on at least once every day and am always around for the 7pm event. I just think people don't notice that i'm on XD. Feel free to check the GM logs if you are able to if you'd like proof.

[ethan 86]

You're confusing Bean for Strupple. Strupple resigned from COL and then joined GM as a PVT 4 hours later. Bean has been Colonel for a while. 

[Hash 23]

+1

From what I've seen from you in GM, I've definitely been impressed. You're not at all migey nor incompetent when it counts and you have led a few events very well when hierarchy aren't on to take command. I think you'd make a brilliant Battalion member.

[Silent 148]

I have to agree with Ethan, I have no idea who you are

Get more well known with other regiments on the server

I have no doubt that you will be a good Battalion member in your regiments eyes, however all other regiments couldn't tell a new player from you just by looking at your name

[[W-G] JH 87]

Neutral

I too am also going to agree with Silent and Ethan. Out of the however so many GM COLs there are I don't really know you, not even personally. I think you need to make yourself more known on the server for this role, as there are better candidates to be picked from.

However in your application you seem competent, obviously reaching the rank of COL. Either way, good luck.

MASSIVE +1

awesome dude who is very friendly

has helped me though my time as GM with learning how it works

when leading in events his call outs are very clear and precise so its easy to follow even when u have so much going off 

I think he would make a awesome battalion member

How so? Your point was to -1 Bean due to something you thought he did but Strupple did. Bean hasn't done that and never has so? Slightly confused.

no  I -1 him due to the fact that i have no idea who he is

and when i asked who he was to people in ts they replied with "oh he resigned from col and joined back the next day"
that is what i was told, and if that wasnt bean that resigned then it proves my point that no ones knows who he is due to the fact they are getting him mixed up with strupple. last reply as i have already said what i have wanted to say on this thread
