also unless that guy snuck the shotgun into the tank (and it'd be pretty bulky, something like a model 1912) he wouldn't be allowed to have it

tigers may be big but they're hella cramped

well I mean if the tank gets covered in soldiers, and the gun's out/ the tank is immobilized, and someone's about to throw a grenade down the hatch, there's gonna be something to protect it, right?

honestly they'd probably all have pistols
but seriously
look up the interior of a tiger tank and tell me that stuff aint cramped enough without a shotgun.
and a grenade in the top hatch would more than likely only kill the commander and gunner, and if you're reall unlucky detonate the ammunition storages

this is part of why tanks never advance without infantry support.

[Mr. Hurricane]

Here's the CO.

Name: William Michael Aust
Role: Company CO; Captain
Age: 28
Appearance/Mannerisms: 5'11, lanky. Unnaturally tall to be a tanker. Defined jawline and a clean-shaven face. Brown hair. Has Heterchromia Iridium, left eye silvery-blue, right eye hazel.

He is cool-headed and in speaks in an easy, low tone. In combat, his voice becomes stern and commanding. He has some trouble managing the responsibilities of managing his own crew and commanding the company when the crew is fighting and the platoon is rotation plans. (Assuming the CO gets a tank. I'm not sure how it works.) He usually tends to focus on the platoon more that his own tank, giving general orders to his own crew and not micro-managing them.

Your Crew: (Names/SHORT Description) (If the CO is in a command tank)
Driver Gunther Baehr - Son of a mechanic. Loves machines. Maintains 'his tank' well. Talkative and energetic.
Gunner Ingram "Eyes" Wallace - Quiet and observant. Well-kept and loyal.
Loader Markus "Strong" Hofer - Farm boy. Heavy build and stands at 5'2. Loudmouth, has an attitude.
MG/RTO Alexi "Radio" or "Sweet" Loboda - Young and young-looking. Loyal but not very courageous. Shakes even during training. Subjected to anti-Narodan discrimination, defended by his crew.

Your Section: None. CO element is Platoon 5 Section A.

[Mr. Hurricane]

Agh I realized how bad I am at making maps, at least basic ones. Donjon world gen isn't giving me what I want either. All I get is one ocean and a super-continent.

EDIT: stuffmap up. Lore will be built on geopolitics now. Expect lore changes, but do not fear, you still work for Hiemat.

EDIT: I'm going to redo the map. Again.

[Mr. Hurricane]

Triple post combo breaker.

We need more people, at least the Platoon Commanders need to be filled to start. Where's the usually Tank/Air RP crowd?

[Juncoph]

There's plenty of space left.

[Juncoph]

Name: Monty Gilbert Ralph
Role: 4th PLT TD Commander
Age: 30
Appearance/Mannerisms: Stocky, 5'4. Brown hair, brown eyes. Tends to forget the gunner is not the loader/that the loader exists while in combat, but his crew's used to it. Had a near death experience in training when his rifle had chambered a cartridge that had way too much powder behind the bullet, and the gun blew up in his face when he fired at a practice target. Luckily he walked away with superficial wounds, and because of this wasn't sent home. Tends to tunnel vision, but is a close friend of the gunner who tends to knock him out of said tunnel vision.
Your Crew:
Gunner - Arnold Falk Evelyn - A bit on the skinny side, but nothing unusual, 5'5. Friendly and quick to react.
Loader - Erik Denis Claus - Chubby, 5'6. If he was a tool, he could use some sharpening.
Driver - Georg Lutz Gilbert - Skinny, 5'1. Nuts. Nobody knows how he passed training.
ComMG- Mark Valerie - Average weight, 5'9. Refuses to tell anyone what his middle name is. Good at shooting, bad at talking.



Your Section: (Names Required Only)
Tank Commander 1: Luke Vincent
Tank Commander 2: Mack Waldo

[Mr. Hurricane]

Juncoph accepted.

The Stug has only a four man crew. There is no RTO, just so you know, but the character can be kept in case of vehicle change.

Platoon 4's Vehicle will be the StuG III B initially.

[blockguy™]

dang, didn't get accepted

[Mr. Hurricane]

dang, didn't get accepted

Yes you were. Sorry for not mentioning. Also I suppose you could keep the shotgun. How it got there could be a matter of question, but crews are given weapons for self-defense anyway.
