ITT: You are given command of 15, young members of a paramilitary organization with orders to equip and train them to be a cohesive infantry unit.
What weapons/equipment do you equip them with? Will you specialize them? Vehicles? Training methodology?
You have 24 months maximum training time
Your budget: 45,000 USD
>>30519277
45k per person or for all?
Where i live you couldnt even feed them for that kind of money
>>30519303
45k for all, but only equipment/uniforms etc
>>30519277
>>30519303
This. If that's total, the training is going to be a lot different than per person.
>>30519277
>You are given command of 15, young members
how young we talking?
>>30519336
approx 18-25
>>30519277
Infantry unit?
You're fucked. Nowhere near enough money to make a decent 2 squad size element with
>>30519277
These pictures of Chinese "special forces" are comical.
First, those are the shittiest chokes I've ever seen. you could try that technique all day and it wouldn't knock anyone out.
And the screaming. Why do these dumbass Chinese scream in all their staged photos lmao
The second guy to the right doesn't even have his arms on the guys neck and he's still screaming. What are they trying to show? Their "elite" soldiers scream when a 120lb chink sits on their back?
>Your budget: $45,000 USD
Did you mean 45,000,000? Because 45k is only about enough to get all my guys rifles, BDU's, and granola bars
>>30519346
I can do it with the shit in my dad's garage.
He's a retired 18B with 40+ guns haha
>>30519345
welp, i'm out
too old to groom at that age
>>30519364
Most of their shit is propaganda, like their supposed "hot potato"
>>30519277
Assault rifle in intermediate caliber, either AK or AR pattern from reputable manufacturer
Preferably, fragmentation and smoke grenades, military issue
Optic, magnified, preferably Trijicon RCO
NODs. Gen 3 or better
Bayonet
Extra batteries
Individual medical kit
Healthy foodstuffs
Pack, plate carrier, gear
Quality boots and camo utilities + snivel gear suited to the AO
Comms gear
Training consist of rucking, rucking, and more rucking interspersed with land nav, combat-focused marksmanship, survival training, hand to hand combat, battle drills, and improvised explosives/demo. In 24 months, one has a squad of infantry able to go toe-to-toe with the best in the world. 45k is way too small of a budget, tho
>>30519277
Does it includes female? Or all male
Whore them out, get more money, get more people, repeat until I have enough money to finance a proper fighting force of at least 2,500.
>>30519308
Cars: 3 cheep ass toyota hilux, paint them green or whatever
Guns: ak, fal or ar depending on the cost of the System (gun, mags, ammo)
Glothes: good shoos, the rest depends on your location. Dont forget winter clothes
Gear: backpack and chest rig
Training: begin with the basics and go to the complex tasks
You will need 8weeks to 6months (depending on the amount of training per day) to teach them the basics of a soldier (shooting, comunication, marching, camping, navigation, first aid ...)
Then you will have to specialise them for theyr tasks (communication, explosives, dm, teamleader) (4weeks to 6 months)
After that you will build and train teams and let th learn the team tasks (cqb, checkpoint, intelligence gathering ...)
When the teams can do their tasks you will have to train the teams in cooperation and doeing bigger tasks together

>prostitute army
i would be interested in purchasing their services
Okay supliment out the pack for an Alice. And the chest rigs for an m83. Then of corse change the camo pending location and rifle on availability...
Improvisation and specialization are needed. Rather than buying expensive shotguns, simply modify hunting models, same for rifles. IEDs can be used in place of grenades, cheap cars in place of technicals, surplus instead of brand new DPMs. Alot of money can be saved by just buying second hand. The only issue is a loss of quality but they don't be teir-one level. Id say arming them to a similar spec to IRA during the Troubles then training them in guerilla warfare would produce the best possible soldiers. Id split them into two fire teams of seven with a sharpshooter (armed with a second hand semi-auto hunting rifle), a cqb specialist with a sawn off 12 ga semi auto, the rest with second hand ARs. Training wold be focussed around stealth and disruption to make the most of low numbers. The final operative would be trained as a commander. He'd need coms gear to contact the squad, probably short range radios would be best on the budget.
>>30519277
Split them into two squads of 7 with one extra guy as leader. Split those into a fireteam of 3 riflemen and a DMR, and 3 man mg team.
Riflemen armed with ARs or something, DMRs and MG something in .308 or whatever.
Your equipment will probably be woodland camo uniform with an alice rig and pack.
Spend whatevers left on ammo emphasizing practical accuracy and how to bound, flank, etc.
Non-Government, legal.
ARs, glocks and dark sunglasses. I assume that looking the part is the most important task of this unit.
Non-Government, illegal.
Tell FBI someone is paying me $20 to make a paramilitary group.
Government
Exact loadout would depend on agency but DoD hands out all its surplus gear to other agency for free so lots of lot M16/M4 rifles, muilticam, old plates and whatever optics are available at that time. The 45k would go to whatever specialized equipment is required.
>>30519277
I'd end up shagging them till I died desu
Create a PMC strictly focusing on budget long range warefare. Get decent surplus rifles for most of them, probably scoped lee enfields. Grab suplies from a hardware store to make some mortors, you know, steel pipes and fertilizer. Train them how to make camo out of anything. Daily shooting practice if budget allows. Some cqc training will be necessary, just in case.
>>30519661
no camo, keep the solid colors. These guys are gunna be smooth operators.
>>30519277
>>30519364
hahaha You are right :D
>>30519661
what pants are those?
>>30519277
That makes only $3000 per person for gear and training equipment. What the fuck do you want I do with that? Even the fucking boy scouts have better budgets than that.
Only one thing to do: do it the African way. Instead of rifles we use sticks (ammo is too expensive anyway). There are no uniforms. People will wear the clothes they came with. Training will consist of running around, doing push-ups/pull-ups/sit-ups, climbs, and obstacle races. Hand-to-hand combat is cheap, too. Land navigation training doesn't require much gear and is cheap to train too. Hand grenade throwing can be trained by using rocks. March drills.
After the first first or second month, people will get issued cheap as fuck rifles and will train to field-strip them until they can do it blindfolded. Drills that were made with sticks, will be done with real rifles.
Again, one or two months later people will start learn shooting.
After that, they will be trained basic infantrymen. It should take about 6 months.
Give them all extension cords and pocket the money.
>>30519661
give pants pls
give them nothing and spend the money on making myself a one man army.
'Nam era woodland BDU's, plate carriers, chest rigs, gas masks, AKs and Glock 20s. Maybe some M67s and tear gas grenades too. For training I'll just starve them for 2 days and make them watch Buck Yager tactical vids for 24 hours straight and then feed and drill them after.
15 SKS rifles: 3000
2400 7.62x39 on clips per soldier: 8400
2 used pickup trucks in workable condition: 7000
Clothing budget of $100 per soldier: 1500
4 tokarev pistols: 600
2520 7.62x25: 550
flashlights with 2 sets rechargeable batteries: 75
knives: 150
2 night vision devices: 12000
beans and rice: 8000
15 of the cheapest airsoft "rifles" with a supply of 6mm caseless: 400
first aid equipment: 600
total: 42050
spend the rest on gas, jerry cans, canteens, repair manuals for the trucks, etc
they'd have to be trained as an irregular force for hit and run attacks and sabotage. the problem is that there isn't enough money for proper explosives. they'd probably have to rely on arson combined with primitive booby traps to stall the fire brigade.
if there was more money I'd buy plastique, grenades, detachable 30 round magazines for the rifles, optics, threading and porting/shortening the rifle barrels for suppressors, web gear; basically in that order.
the soldiers are trained in hand to hand fighting, basic infantry movement, accurate rock/grenade throwing, dismounting the trucks under fire, entering secured facilities, basic marksmanship.
the airsoft rifles are used for red vs blue training, manuevers, etc. the US military uses a milo laser system, this is cheaper and about as effective.
there are probably some supplies missing. either the recruits need to take part time jobs to pay for the remaining tools/parts, or they'll be sent on missions to steal the stuff from suburban garages.
of course, in jagged alliance I'd just buy pistols, hire the cheapest nutjobs available and worry about the rest later
Remember it's supposed to be NGO para-military, they arn't meant to be trained to the nth degree and have millions of dollars in equipment.
>>30519277 economic warfare unit.
acquire some weapons (pistols, sawn-off shotguns, sledgehammers), vehicles (bikes & vans) & radios.
use them to knock over jewellery stores for funds. have perimeter lookouts; rock up on bikes: smash & bgrab, exit to somewhere out of sight/cctv & get in the vans to exfil.
sell the stones seperately and melt the gold into generic rings/bracelets/coins to sell though cashforgold websites/pawnshops. Use cut-outs for this.
Use the funds to acquire as well as fake ID's for setting bank accounts, shell companies and fake businesses for frauds. Use wealth to buy politicians/set them up for blackmail.
