So I was thinking about a Romanian Psychiatrist (Face / Medic). An older civilian psychiatrist who was pulled into the conflict when the war overwhelmed the Romanian medical system. Now a low ranking medic attached to the task force, he'll also operate as an interpreter and negotiator. Lots of grumpy old man energy and status anxiety. But it depends what other characters are in the mix and I can pivot to something else. That said, in the TW2K setting no harm in more than one medic.
Mar 23, 2026 4:07 pm
I can see possibilities. I have another player who has also proposed a local. So those two characters will probably be the limit on Romanian characters.
Mar 23, 2026 5:57 pm
If we already have a Romanian I'm sure I could switch to a different nationality.
Mar 23, 2026 7:06 pm
I don’t foresee a problem with 2 Romanians. So that is fine. You can go ahead and generate your character.
Mar 23, 2026 7:12 pm
Actually might go Moldovan - Romanian speaking. Just for a bit of variety.

If we qualify for special operations in Lifepath, can we take it? Are there special operators with the unit at all? There wasn't anything mentioned in the recruitment post, but a stray might have ended up in the area of operations or something.
I used the character generator to build a pretty chock-standard SAS-type as best I could with what it gave me.

I can neither confirm nor deny the presence of Green Berets in the area. If there are Special Forces operators in the area, they would most likely be either American or Soviet. There are Brits in the area, but not SAS. The closest thing would be a Gurkha.
Just as a reminder, here are the primary suggestions for character backgrounds - Characters: Should be members of Joint Combined International Task Force Honey Badger: (US: Team Falcon), which includes the 173rd Infantry Brigade (Airborne); (UK: Team Cyprus), which includes a Light Armoured Recce Squadron, a Force Protection Squadron and a company of Gurkha Rifles; and (Italy: Team Aquile (Eagle)), a Motorized Infantry Bn, A Mechanized Cavalry Bn and a Horse Cavalry BN. Characters can also be members of Romanian Military, Ukrainian Military (operating in Romania), Partisan Forces, or any civilian career. Intelligence career characters will be considered on a case-by-case basis.
I should add that, while I am open to running an eclectic group, I am an American and know the American military the best. This is, of course, what the two prose pieces in the INTEREST & RECRUITMENT posts are based on. Just want to be transparent up front. As long as that is understood, then feel free to make a British, Gurkha, Italian or Romanian soldier.

One thing I did with the life path with Special Operations, was to title it as the character's time in a Ranger BN as it was only his 2nd Term. In the British Army a similar method for a character in a Army Reserve 4th Para BN could be assigned to the paras or Gurkhas on a temp basis for a term. Or even the Character could be from the 21st or 23rd SAS in the reserves for a term, then active duty 'filler' with the Gurkhas.

Would you allow an Officer with a Military Intelligence background (as opposed to CIA)? Figured that might help bridge the gap there and keep things within the task force.

To all: If you have submitted a character and have not seen it approved, please do not be alarmed. I am working on several things on the back end. You can rest assured that I have looked at each character that is submitted. In fact, I check them twice a day. If I haven't approved your character yet and I haven't reached out to you via PM, please know that I will get to you and either approve you are PM you within the next few days. There is still plenty of time before the official game start and I am working on some potential pre-game roleplaying.

I'm thinking of a Ukrainian who's unit was pushed back from maybe the Odessa or maybe Chernivisti or Lviv to where we are now before the unit was incorporated into whatever we are now.
Thoughts?

I red quickly through your history of the area and I get the impression the Ukrainians are kind of partisans / French Resistance types. So maybe an ex-student or something from Lviv who got involved with the underground and was forced west as the war moved on.

Driving around gives me time to think and what I came up with is this: honestly, there’s very little to lose by continuing, so my encouragement is to continue and let the war roll happen naturally. Is there something you are looking to door avoid by going to war early?

Are the Marines using SMAW or LAWs in this conflict? I don't think we are lucky enough to get javelins.
Mar 27, 2026 5:00 am
There are a few Javelins in play, having just entered the inventory. But the vast majority went to Poland and some in Sweden. Have you got an explanation on how a Marine ended up in Romania all alone? Not saying it couldn’t happen, just like to hear the background.

Was able to sit down and play with one of the character generators last night. How do I submit the character? An never mind, found it.
Also according to Google light armored recon units are part of USMC instead of Army. As a result I described my character as a Marine but let me know if I should tweak that.

You punch your character into the sheet linked above then go to the game's title page.
Hit the cube at the top, then the cube next to the T2K game.
Scroll down on that page to "Submit a Character" and select your character sheet.

As a result I described my character as a Marine but let me know if I should tweak that.Not exactly, Although not easily found, unless you know where to look because you served in the US Army back then, the Army did have Brigade Reconnaissance Troops or BRT, prior to the 2000s when the Recon Squadron became a part of the Brigades (which ended in the Light and Airborne units in 2016-ish time frame were inactivated and Infantry BNs were formed int he overseas BDEs).
In the 173rd, they did not have a BRT, but the 173rd did have a Pathfinder Platoon and every Infantry BN had a Scout Platoon. All of those are Infantry Soldiers (11B) with the reconnaissance training, while the Pathfinders were pathfinder trained. While in the BRTs those Soldiers were 19D (Armor Cav Scouts).
The BRTs structure is a HMMWV based organization with two platoons of ten Scout Trucks (M1025 and M1026) - Link to Doctrine and doctrine TOE is here and the link to BRT.
An excerpt on the MTOE is here;
"Under the current MTOE (modified tables of organization and equipment), the BRT is authorized four officers and 45 enlisted men, for a total of 49. This does not include attachments or other supporting slice elements. The BRT has two maneuver platoons and a headquarters platoon. Each reconnaissance platoon consists of 18 soldiers and six HMMWVs. In the recon platoon there are three M2 .50-caliber machineguns and three Mk-19s, and each soldier carries an M16 or an M203. The platoons are assigned six M240Bs each, which can replace the truck-mounted Mk-19 or can provide crew-served firepower for a dismounted observation post (OP). The headquarters platoon consists of 13 soldiers with an M1025, two M998s, M1037 w/S-250 shelter (command post, CP, vehicle), and an M923. Within the division and the brigade, other reconnaissance assets can be attached. This BRT habitually trains with combat observation laser teams (COLTs), infantry snipers, air defense artillery (ADA) sections (Avenger), and ground surveillance radar (GSR) teams. Although medics have been recognized as a necessity, they are not on the MTOE "
The Character from a US Army Scout background could be from the Embassy staff that was a Cav Scout (19D could get assigned to the Embassy's support staff as a Technical Escort member). EDIT - Or from the Scout Platoon of the 1st BN 198th Armor BN, 155th Armor BDE.
OOC:
for some reason the GM has the unit as 1st BN 155th Armor BN, 198th Armor Division???So unfortunately searches are focused on what is current for the military and not the units or the US Army in the 1990s.

"Boots on the shale, echo in the spray
Sent him to Jesus with a 203 round."
Rooster, as was he did when he wasn't lifting weights, performing maintenance on Hillary, or eating, was performing some unholy sounding ritual with an electric guitar and an old tube amp.
In this instance he had the guitar in Dropped D tuning and was purposefully causing a feedback screech between what was a tortured blues scale in F#minor. The resulting tone was crunchy, as well as trudgey, sludge metal, grunge rock. It was as if Silverchair and Soundgarden had had a baby with Chevelle and the result was that fried baritone vocals, with the oversexed guitar.
"Now the wind's pickin' up what the blast threw away.
Chunks in the crevice smell like, burnt ground.
Scrape what's left off the rocks boys.
Scrape off the rocks.
Confirm that kill, yeah
Confirm that kill!"
The guitar was screaming distorted feedback in between what Rooster described as "Chunga power chords." In a way fitting the raw, unfiltered, harsh reality of a shooting war in the Carpathians. The guitar played rhythm, like how the Marine fixed fire, staccato at 5/4 timing, making an intriguing desynchronized loop that fell back in time at the end of each stanza.
"No eyes left to stare, no heart left to still
Just red paste and dog tags, CONFIRM THAT KILL!
Spotter confirms "ain't nothing breathing there"
Lieutenant nods, we police the gear
One boots intact, the rest disappeared
Into the rocks like it was never here.
The power chords slowed into an almost blues sounding, if not for the overcharged distortion, sequence of barre chords and more feedback. A guitar solo?
He continued singing, half crooning half belting, and somehow all yelling.
"How many pieces make a man?
How many reports til the count is done?
Mama gets the letter "regret to inform"
We just hosed off the evidence in the
MORNING SUN!!!"
The distorting peaked as his voice intensified. It was full and conflicted. Pride, shock, humor, horror. The amp clicked and pealed for a moment as he clicked off the distortion pedal. Now playing an eerie and haunting clean tone blues riff, diatonic still in the key of F#minor. Vocals just crooning, with a trill and vibrato. Such a large man as Rooster could produce some incredible sounds when amplified.
"Confirm...
Scrape...
Confirm...
Nothing moves...
Timing remained the same but the tempo increased to 84bpm, undistorted, finger picking the same blues scale uninterrupted by distortion. Vocals more melancholic than the earlier ecstatic.
"Back in The Wire, taste won't wash out
Soap and sand, but the leads still loud
They ask for the count like its numbers on the page
I see the sludge every time I close my eyes
No body bag needed, no coffin to seal
Just a smear on the granite -"
The distortion peals full, louder than before, returning to the wails of distortion and power chords.
"THATS THE WHOLE FUCKIN' DEAL
Scrape whats left of the rocks boys
But the rocks scrape back
Yeah the rocks scrape back
CONFIRM THAT KILL!
Pin a ribbon on me, they write it up clean
"Hostile neutralized, threat no longer seen"
But the paste had a name, had a kid, had a dream
Now it's fossilized forever in between.
How many pieces make a man?
How many nights til I become one too?
The letter they sent never mentioned the smell
Or the way the wind still carries pieces of you
Scrape what's left off the rocks...
Confirm that kill... confirm that kill...
Nothing moves... but something's moving in me
The rocks remember... the rocks remember..."

The good doctor Octavian has taken the full 6 so something must have hit between the Carpathians and Chișinău. Although I imagine hospital radiological safety was probably not quite so good back then so he might have picked it up there. I used to do a lot of work with radioisotopes in a lab back then. And uranium. (Looks around for a Geiger counter to measure himself).

And uranium. (Looks around for a Geiger counter to measure himself).Apr 4, 2026 9:17 pm

I imagine this is not the case, 0.25kg for belt fed weapons. I'm not looking right now to be honest.

On the same page, a 'Unit' is 3 Kgs.
From the Player Manual at the top of Page 19 in the high-lighted part....
So a 100 belt of 7.62mm (lick your flavor) is 3 Kgs. In real life the 7.62x51mm 100 belt is
"Weight of a 100 round assault pack (2 per can) is 7 pounds." or about 3.18 Kgs
