MTF Harrow-23 "Sierra"

[Bread 570]

Lore:

''Sierra-23'' which had been created by the O5 Council to manage large scale anomalous threats with advanced and tangential technology. However early after the creation of the MTF, which recruited over-performing members of other task forces, a large-scale raid by [REDACTED] at site-[REDACTED] the group proved to excel at dealing with raid on foundation facilities. Today the group has been renamed to Ha-23 ''Sierra'' with the newfound purpose of preventing and counter-acting raids. Launching pre-emptive attacks when necessary, Task Force Sierra have been stationed at site-[REDACTED] to prevent attacks from the outside forces, due to the high amount of GOIs (groups of interest) present in the area of Ovis City.

Purpose:

Ha-23's main purpose is to give the foundation intel about the surface's current situation and to give an advantage of the raids that the site is actively receiving, the foundation currently has a strong advantage over its defence, but a very weak offence position, this is mostly due to the fact that the foundation is poorly prepared for the dangers ahead and the advantage of having a recon scout team to support them with intel and firepower will be a benefit to any surface operations and event. Harrow-23 will be an active surface unit and will provide help to field agents and other units as a QRF (quick reaction force) if needed.  In summary, Harrow-23 will work as a scout team and QRF to friendly units.

Hell yea

The foundation is strong on defense but weak on offense

I like the idea, not sure how balanced is having a scout unit with both sniper rifles and SMG's . I wouldn't mind seeing this on the server with a bit of tweaking.

Glorified Field Agent man, although big efford and interesting task force.

That's we you're wrong kiddo, yes I'm going to correct you, so far I really like Harrow and it's not just a glorified field Agent job, it's an MTF tasked with scouting the surface, raiding GOIs, being a qrf and establishing a Foundation presence on the surface, a task which hasn't been accomplished by field agents or other MTFs, Harrow is needed, not to defend but to actually establish a Foundation presence outside the subway, with the possibility to rp on the surface(yes I understand Harrow)

NU-7, Epsilon-11, Beta-7, Beta-1 & Alpha-1 (And if you want to you can count Omega-12 & Sigma-66 you can even though there’s no point to)

We have 5 whole Mobile Task Forces on the server. This is a good suggestion however at this current time we do not need any more, however, in the future this can be taken into consideration whenever an MTF is being taken into account. Also tbh this seems like a combined nu-7 and beta-1 so no point in adding it now.

I hate to break it to you but only Nu-7 can go on the surface out of those jobs and Harrow is a surface driven job. So there will only be one other MTF group with this type of roleplay. 

 

And how is it close to B1? We have nothing in common

gonna be honest, it just seems like countering GOI’s and going on the surface hence why I made that comparison.

 

also mainly we don’t need anymore MTFs ok? ok.

Server management disagrees with you, as we need offensive mtfs. But i see where you are coming from

Gotta agree with Rose, anymore MTFs aren't really necessary and the addition of another MTF will just spread the playerbase unevenly among jobs. That's not taking TRO into consideration either.

In addition to this  foundation presence doesn't  really  need to be more established on the surface, as it's unrealistic and normality on the surface already seems like a joke as it is.

NU7 also has scouts, I would be neutral if this acted as a replacement for NU7 but in my opinion Lota-10 would be a better fit for a replacement of both NU7 & Field agent.

While Wasza has a point with this: another MTF will just spread the playerbase

No one asked for B-7, B-7 doesnt do much overall except give non donators the ability to play MTFs
A-1, B-1 and E-11 arent designed to hold the surface, Nu-7 is sort of but Nu-7 doesnt do it as they have to do security's job
E-11 is designed to get anomalies from the surface and contain them
A-1 and B-1 are both meant to stay in a facility

No im not arguing, I'm just trying to have a conversation on the forums, even though thats impossible

where tf did you read that B1 is supossed to stay in the facility
They can always go out if needed

They can but its not their job, ingame they are a sort of MP, they enforce laws, help defend and find leaks/traitors

You keep writing it with no valdid points, but yeah and no B1 is strictly in the facility, the group has always been inside the facity and can only go out with perms like e11.

B1 has always been like that, Juan demoted people doing it same did I back when it was first made. B1 has no reason to go om the surface, even Willrick was warned about before he got Owner of it

 

Only group that are a surface task force is nu7 and they cant handle 3 gois and PD alone

I understand this, but it still doesn't change the fact that another MTF is unnecessary. NU7 has the capabilities to complete scouting missions or the better alternate is Field agents, it all comes down to how the HOEA manages the surface. Another reason to  why I strongly disagree with this as well is because one of the Foundation's primary objectives is to sustain normality something the surface extremely lacks. If this MTF was added it would just contribute to the abnormality of the surface as I feel as if it would result in what NU7 did for a fews months with the "FOBS" where Foundation would constantly be compromised. There's simply no need for a constant military like  presence on surface if there was we might as well accept Bobby's outright stupid suggestions for PD.

To be frankly honest as well, this job barely differs from NU7. The need for an offensive MTF? I mean realistically NU7 and field agents can do all the objectives stated above, only if their Commander or HOEA is competent and organises their units appropriately. NU7 doesn't have to act as security....

We don't need all these " specialised " MTFs especially when their purpose can easily be completed by another, they don't drastically change RP nor contribute to anything.

Accepted

After discussing drastic changes to this job with Bread in Teamspeak we've decided to add this to the server as a much smaller MTF similar in size to Beta-7. The group will be very strict with who it allows in and will have specialised gear for surface and scouting ops. This MTF will be added in the coming weeks.
