Terrorist Organisations.

[Adaptus]

just had a thought, why not comprise a list of all the Terroist groups that oporate in Europa, and where in Europa they oporate, just for future RP reference, and maybe it could lead to something, like a international war on terror like the current war on terror in RL? just a thought, and if it's a rejected idea, just close this thread and delete it, cos my threads seems to fail.

[Ide Jima]

Possibly, but maybe we would need to place more emphasis on religous divide before doing so - seeing as that is where the most notorious international terrorist acts in RL seem to stem from

[Adaptus]

yeah i you are right. but i just got the idea from a special forces book i have, it lists all Terroist Groups throught the world quite nicley, and i thought we could make our own. then we could write a little about there history, and there intenstion, could be interesting.

[Ide Jima]

It is a good idea, but you'd need to see what others think

[Adaptus]

yeah, i'll wait.

[Northern Voobaha]

Funny this thread came up.. I was considering two PNV militia/terror groups, one political, one religious.

 

National Front is an armed group that is allied with the "United Voobaha" political party. Their aim is to reunite the recently independent North with the homeland of Voobaha.

 

Red Candle is a more radical group that wants to see PNV become a nation based purely on the Wiccan Crede. Many members are decendants of the original settlers of the North, who fled religious persecution.

 

Thoughts?

[Adaptus]

nice one.

 

 

[Niederoestereich]

not a bad idea

[Tagmatium Rules]

Terrorist organisations are odd ones...

 

I don't think Tagmatium would have any, but then again recent military expansion would into near-by plots would obviously make separatist political movements and even terrorist organisations.

 

Religious themes may also be a good one. Tagmatium is an Orthodox Christian nation, but has never been actively trying to "convert the heathen", but there probably would be groups which would want this, or, oppositely, groups which would want a more secular Tagmatium.

 

@VN: Good going!

[Adaptus]

i was thinking there could be an international terrorist group like Al Queda. where it oporates in all nations, using say an empty plot to as a base.

[Byzantium Nova]

I can look into it. Got a RP book that lists terrorist groups and intelligence agencies their history and backround. I?m not too active in christmas though as my computer monitor blew up (yep, all the blue mist inside escaped) and while I?m going to visit my mom she does not like to see me being at computer too much. I?ll try to visit occasionally though and think something about this topic. (I played separatist group before so I may bring them up again.)

[Orioni]

What would a terrorist group be upset about?

What would their goal be, their aim to achieve?

What kind of countries would they attack most?

[Ide Jima]

1) Religous upset? That usually does the trick.

2) Destroying an ethnic group?

3) Everyone!

[Ide Jima]

But as for ideas, I don't know... Religous upset is probably the best bet - as that tends to mess with people's innermost beliefs. Maybe something linked to the GHET expansion.

 

Or what about some treehuggers who go bad?

[Adaptus]

a terroist groups could be upset about a way a country is being ran, or how some of there friends are wrongfuly jailed, or about the amount of religion in a nation or sort of religion.

 

their goals could be to free "brothers" from prison, to declair there own state, or to give more political say to a minority group, or even there goal could be to force a nation our of their land.

 

they could attack countries which are acting against a minority, a nation with an opressive government, could attack a country that has taken over part of the natives country.

 

 

oh and the Ide the treehugger idea sounds good.

i have been looking into this for a while, i Bhalman informed me that FAN had something very similar, so i took a look, and it is very interesting, they have a huge detailed list of most nations Terror groups, and have an anti-terror orgonizastion to go aloung with it. they RP insodents, and Counter-attascks on the terrorists. all in all very interesting.

[Mongol-Swedes]

I'd be happy to help, kinda like how those movie producers call in 'Military Advisors', to help ensure realism. Of course the thing about Stability Operations and Support Operations(i.e. SOSO, i.e. Iraq, Afghanistan, Bosnia, the Horn of Africa, etc) is that there's always something new everyday.

[Adaptus]

yeah that would be nice, i know a bit myself, being a Cpl in the ATC, it may be the Cadets but we do alot of CQB Technieqes and Assault Technieques and such that the British Army have used in Situation in Iraq, and i've heard a few stories from there too.

[Vanarambaion]

Vanarambaion has two viable terrorist groups. One is monarchist and very secret, the other anti-monarchist and quite open. The secret one, known as the Skull Society, spends most of its time providing opportunities for the monarchy to expand, and if it were to ever fall, to reinstate it with all available speed.

 

The not-so-secret one attacks the monarchy in the name of the "oppressed peoples" of Vanarambaion - mostly minority groups and other special interests. They are responsible for the attack on General Van Helsing, the current Emperor's father.

 

Vanarambaion itself follows a very introspective modification of the Catholic faith, and religious concerns are sometimes used to rally the population to the crown. They are tolerant of certain other faiths - most notably having adapted to complement the Akiiryan faith recently.

[Orioni]

Just add this to your list:

 

* Scorpio Clan

 

They're not really terrorists, but they have been known for their attempts at assasinating members of our imperial family. Centuries ago, they also commited a coup d'?tat. (The whole story will be on my wiki-page soon.)

[Ide Jima]

Terror Groups?

 

Ide Jima has two large ones:

 

1) The CLF (Cteisephon Liberation Front) A native activist group, deemed by the government to be a terrorist group. Several bombings and biological attacks. But one man's terrorist is another man's freedom fighter...

 

2) The Kharzai religous sect. Based in the central mountains, they bomb kill and assassinate government officials, more or a rebel group than a terror org. but activity has dried up recently.

[HalKu]

The only terrorist network in HalKu are followers of The Rebels in the HalKu civil war. They have their own version of Halish-Kuthean. They are relativly weak, and small in number, yet they wish the destroy the current system in HalKu, because they belive it is God's will. They would be willing to co-operate with many other terror groups, becuase they believe that their mission is God's will, and they will do ANYTHING to acchieve it.
