'CO' Cooldown

[PuNk! ™]

Hey Guys,

Lately I've realised the notion of becoming a CO has hit home for a few people and finally, you guys are taking notice of the promotional standards you can issue your men and so forth. In other words, run a division yourself.

I decided to allow you guys to create and design your own divisions yourself, as it would bring more character to this board and having the variation of different combatants also concludes, having unique battles being fought.

Whereas the inital sign-up to this place was you all being in one fixed division - so I've put a lot of trust and leeway into you guys, to allow you the notion of being able to create and edit all the details of your Division yourself.

However, this notion seems to be catching on a little now and everyone feels the need to have a high ranking gentleman of the ranks. Which is sadly out-numbering the enlisted members upon this website, who bring a whole deal of strength and power of their own. You guys may not realise it, but I would initally mark an Enlisted member's actions more accurately, opposed to that of a Commanding Officer; As after all, Sergeants and hence-forth are more experienced in the field of combat.

So a big cooldown of CO sign-ups has now begun. No more CO sign-ups will be accepted as of now (excluding the French CO Sign-Up posted earlier this morning).

The following list is a list of COs currently active upon this website; I haven't listed the Enlisted members, but ideally, Enlisted members should be out-numbering the CO ranks, not the other way around -- So here's the current list.

2 Captains
2 1st Lieutenants

1 2nd Lieutenant
1 Pilot Off' / 2nd Lieutenant
= 2 Lieutenant Ranks

Allied COs:[/b]
CPT. BRENTWOOD
CPT. PATTERSON
Lt. Riley
Lt. Ethan-Day / Nick' Ealing
Lt. Canard
Pilot Off'. Green
2LT Mitchell

---

1 Major

2 Captains
1 Medical Off' / Captain
= 3 Captain Positions

3 1st Lieutenants
1 Flight Lt / 1st Lieutenant
= 4 Lieutenant Positions

0 2nd Lieutenant

Axis COs:[/b]
MAJ. Wolfram
CPT. Hartwig
CPT. Horst Von Epp
Med' Off': Vlakte
Flt. Lt. Wolfgang
Lt. Battista
Lt. Schneider
Lt. Stahl
Lt. Steinbeck




As you can see, either side has 6 Commanding Officers. Until we gain at least a good few more Enlisted titled members, I'll begin accepting CO ranks again. All I can say to you guys, is maybe start working together if you're all in different divisions (particularly for the Allied-side). As you'd be able to gain promotions quicker, earn CP much easier with the extra strength of working as a team and so forth...

Have an questions, leave them below.

Okay, I'm going to allow the following;
Allies and Axis may both have one recruitment of a Lieutenant each.

So, either a Second-Lieutenant or First Lieutenant.

Anyone signing up, who already has a CO account, could possibly be made void. As this would quite openly give the chance of having a CO account to those who haven't got one.

Enjoy,

There is only one CO space left; 1 Axis Lieutenant Slot!

Danny, you probably know already, but it seems Horst von Epp has been grossly inactive since he joined. It seems there may be another open position on the axis side.

I also wonder if medical officers should be counted as part of a faction's officers since we do apply in a neutral area.
Anyway, good day

Also, while at it, I note you have Plt. Off' Green, but not Flt. Lt. Wolfgang on the list

Good points guys,
They went unnoticed at the time, because I was searching through 80/90 members (prior to the activity check) and Von Epp' literally signed up the day I made the CO-Cool-Down, so I let him slip in. Just forgot to add him to the list.

Hmm.
Strumfelder, you just recently started a thread with Stahl, are you planning on keeping this character?

Wolfgang and Von Epp' will be added to the list also.
As for Medical staff not being counted on the list, I can't allow that, they have to be counted on the list as let's face it doc; It would be a loop-hole for people signing up as Medical COs, to then go and grab the nearest weapon and head off into combat.

Your character; Vlakte and Strumfelder (I know he's not a CO), are both very offensive sort of guys. In a sense that, Strum's bought Mortars, commanding men and so forth. Same with you Vlakte, but then again, you are acting the role as a Medical Unit more appropriately than Strumfelder or my character for that matter; Peter.

So I can't allow Medical COs to sign up and not have them listed on the CO Cool-Down list. Sure, they'd be lame shots with a weapon, but it still doesn't excuse the fact that they may purchase a weapon at their own will and hit the field still. So, unfortunately, unless there was a rule made, stating they couldn't carry weapons at all, then I'd consider taking them off the cool-down list.

Just for the record, Stahl's planning to fall on his bayonnet, so the space will soon open up.

[☤Theodorijk Wijzemens]

That's completely understandable, PuNk!. I wasn't really suggesting anything and I had no intention of making a loophole. With that in mind, I might just be a bit more aggressive now that I know I can be.
Cheers!
