The year is 1943, and the world is falling into pieces. Two pieces, to be exact. East and west. As WWII rages on and the allied powers continue to fight with all their hearts, a new military force has been established. The Maverick Battalion, a military camp stationed in Pfälzerwald forest, designated for all soldiers who don't quite...fit in. That can mean anything from a different species, a super soldier, a mutant, or anything else that makes them unique. The Battalion is led by a mysterious and legendary Lieutenant Colonel who only goes by the codename Grey Eagle.
When you signed up for the military, you didn't quite expect to be sent to a remote camp in Germany designated for soldiers who are "different", but it's actually not that bad. You were assigned to Company X, the rookie company. You're stationed in a large outdoor facility in the middle of the forest. The camp is large enough to hold about 200 soldiers comfortably. Each soldier has an outdoor tent with a waterproof sleeping bag and enough rations for a year. There is a large outdoor mess hall in the center of the camp with about 40 wooden picnic tables and a large stage towards the north side of the camp where the Captain rallies soldiers. Finally, towards the south end of the camp is the armory. Soldiers are only allowed in there during mission prep.
Your boots squelch through the mud while you adjust your fatigues on the way to the mess hall. Captain Wells has called for the first meeting of the soldiers. You get to the mess hall from your tent, about a 5 minute walk, and you see a scruffy man dressed in a Captain's uniform and a red beret standing on the stage. He holds a crutch under his right arm, and his black mullet shines from the slight drizzle outside. "Attention, rookies. Welcome to the Maverick Battalion. My name is Wells, I am your Captain. I call the shots in this camp." He limps to the front of the stage and addresses the mob of soldiers. "You may all be wondering why you've been assigned to some mudhole in the middle of Germany, and to that I ask you to look around at eachother. Not a one of you is a regular, mundane soldier. Every last one of you is unique in some way. It's my job to utilize your special skills, and god damn it, I swear I will turn you rookies into the finest soldiers the Allies have ever seen!" Your daily schedule will consist of training for missions, forming bonds among your fellow soldiers, and maintaining your own lifestyle. Once I have personally decided that you are skilled enough to be sent on a mission, you will be assigned to a team or squad that attains to your strengths and weaknesses. Remember soldiers, you signed up for the military for a reason. Your one goal is to win. This. War!" He coughs and clears his throat. Wells then brandishes his signature Swedish Morkniv scout knife and pricks his finger, letting a drop of blood drip onto the stage. "Let this be the last blood of our men spilled in this war. Thank you. You are all dismissed." He doesn't seem to be the most social guy.
*Welcome to the battalion, friend! This is a WWII style lobby/combat thread. I brainstormed this for a long time and I hope you guys will all have fun on this thread, if you decide to join.*
*Here are the rules*
Gore is allowed, but all interactions should be PG-13 max.
Romance is also allowed, but no fade to blacks and again keep it PG-13.
Characters will start at level 5, however this thread will be XP based. (As a little experiment.) and characters can level up on missions.
Swearing should be censored.
Keep arguments out of the thread.
Be respectful of eachother.
The mods for now are only me, but any volunteers are welcome.
From smallest to biggest, the military forces of the battalion are as follows:
A Team of soldiers, made up of one experienced soldier and three rookies.
A Squad, made up of two teams and led by a staff sergeant, typically dispatched on specific focus missions.
A Platoon. Three squads make up a platoon. There are four platoons in the company, each led by a lieutenant. Lieutenants Max, Orson, Rosie, and Johnny.
The Company, which occupies the camp. Made up of 4 platoons and led by Captain Wells, the one-legged legendary sniper.
Finally, the Battalion, which is split up into 4 companies, X, Y, Z, and Omega. All spread around Germany and led by one man, the Grey Eagle.
Now you really are dismissed, soldier. Go be your best self and start on your way to becoming a hero of the Allies. Enjoy!

A young man, about eighteen years old, is standing at the edge of camp. His hair goes down to his shoulders and is a golden shade of blonde, and his eyes are sky blue. His face is sunburned and freckled, and he wears an army uniform. He just entered the military, but he looks alert and ready for battle.

"Nothin' to do, Soldier?" The boy hears a deep voice from behind him, and upon turning around, he sees a man dressed in a Liutenant uniform with a bandage over his right eye and spiky brown hair. This is Max Tredgie, Lieutenant of the 1st platoon.
