New California Republic

The New California Republic is a large, Federal Republic with a population of well over 700,000 based in California, with holdings in Nevada, Mexico (Baja California) and along the Colorado River.

The NCR emphasizes and claims to support a myriad of old-world values, such as democracy, personal liberty, and the rule of law. It also strives to restore general order to the wasteland, the improvement and development of infrastructure and economic systems, and a basic commonpeace between the people.

Though appearing to be a benevolent entity of governance, the ability to control the land it claims to protect, the fidelity of those who live under their rule, and the widespread corruption within their political system has been questioned by many, without a clear response by the NCR themselves.

OOC Guidelines
The NCR military is in the area to explore and guard the Ambassador. You are not part of an invasion force, and are representatives of the NCR - as such, avoid large-scale gunfights, especially ones in which non-aggressors could be injured, and attempt to deal with threats with the minimum of force where possible. Assaulting enemy encampments is discouraged except when absolutely necessary.

You are expected to be visibly recognisable as part of the NCR when engaged in any confrontations with other factions (unless acting as a nonlethal infiltrator). Because you are representing the NCR, you should attempt to build friendly relationships with locals, whether because you genuinely wish to, or because it will help with the annexation process down the line. You should also avoid damaging the NCR's reputation whenever possible.

As a member of the NCR, you are expected to obey the chain of command whenever possible- commissioned officers outrank enlisted personnel, and orders from High Command (server staff) outrank everybody. The Ambassador, though not formally a member of the NCR military, carries great political authority, and should be treated with respect on diplomatic matters. When a commanding officer goes off-duty, they should make their immediate subordinates aware of this.

The NCR should work to capture high-value targets or sabotage their enemies in the first hour of the round, rather than resolving conflicts through force. Organized raids on enemy bases may only be conducted past the three-hour mark. Smaller skirmishes and solo/duo infiltrations may be permitted if it is logical and RP’d correctly.

NCRA Guidelines
Breaking these might get you punished by your superior officers.


 * Obey the chain of command.
 * While on duty, do not: take addictive chems or drugs, drink alcohol, gamble, or have sex.
 * Treat prisoners with respect and dignity. Field execution can only be authorised by commanding officers of Lieutenant and higher (or High Command).
 * Represent the NCR in a positive manner.
 * Wear your uniform at all times when conducting NCR operations.
 * If the NCR takes over a settlement, they must enforce NCR law, which forbids, prostitution, gambling, slavery, drug abuse and public drunkenness.
 * NCR Troops cannot go off duty whenever they desire - it must be passed through their chain of command.
 * NCR should not harass locals without proper reasoning.

Ranger Corps Guidelines"“The Rangers are hand picked from the standard NCR infantry for their combat and stealth abilities. They are well known for their ability to infiltrate enemy territory and successfully complete missions with great efficiency. Their force of will and general determination has made them famous across the NCR as expert troops.”"Rangers are a cut above the average NCR man and women. They are skilled in a variety of tasks ranging from close quarters combat, long range engagements, sabotaging, and general survival of the wasteland. They are capable of acting autonomously or in a group if needed but are still to adhere to the Chain of Command for the NCR. A Ranger should hold closely the ideals of the NCR. Liberty, Justice, and the freedom and safety from tyrants, slavers, and raiders. A Ranger will never desert unless there is a very good reason, they will not reject the teachings of the NCR, to break their bond of the Ranger Code, is to fail the NCR and her people.

The Role of the Rangers

Rangers are seen as the best of the best by the NCR troopers. They are to assist in scouting, sabotage, and higher risk missions among the troops of the California Republic that are deemed suicidal or impossible. They are well respected and often admired by the NCR for their tremendous capabilities. Typically, a ranger can operate on their own and do not need to hassle the acting leading officer of the NCR for orders.

The Ranger’s Place in the NCR

The rangers are loosely based around the typical NCR command structure. To retain their autonomy, the Rangers can typically be out on their own but are to at least adhere and give the NCR a heads up on their current operation in the outcome they are KIA. When it comes to commanding or leading, a Ranger has the authority similar to a Sergeant; however, if there is already a Sergeant the orders of the sergeant are to be followed by the NCR troops.

Regarding orders from LT’s/Captains: The rangers exist in an odd fashion outside the NCR command structure. However, they are not immune to it. If there is an LT or Captain, their orders are to be followed within reason; your skills are better suited elsewhere so something like “mop the floors” is unfitting of your position, rank, and branch of service.

Specifically relating to the NCR Veteran Ranger: The Veteran Ranger is a respected and feared individual among the NCR and beyond. They hold authority over the Rangers over the Lieutenants if there is a conflicting order. Note that, the Veteran Ranger and Captain are of an equal rank. Their word is just as important despite not being directly attached to the NCR Army. However as stated earlier if there is already an existing Captain or LT, generally it would behoove the Veteran Ranger to have the LT/Cap lead the NCR. In the case of an LT, the Veteran may give their advice or assist where they can with commanding or making large decisions for the NCR during the round.
