Enforcement Action Taken
Description of the incident:
So, The Captain plan this round was to paradrop us into an unsecured zone, apparently the Medbay area groundside as “first drop”.
Have the Scout “OB” medical, and then have two of our squads paradrop on it. An unsecured area, that can easily be swarmed or counter-attacked with no point of return in the middle of the AO without even knowing what our enemies are and where they are. I refused to go into the paradrop plan, and deployed on Alamo as normal. Since this was pretty much a suicide plan that i didn’t wanted to unneccesarely risk my life for, hot dropping into no mans land, and potentially dying there with no one to save or rescue us, or being swarmed.
To me, that sounds kinda incredible dangerous, suicidal plan even.
So, I’m aware, as a Specialist im held to the same standards as SL’s etc. And i’m not allowed to disobey orders without a good reasoning, however, i think paradropping into unknown area without even making contact with the enemy, and without it being secured, just “praying” that the OB will make the enemy or whatever there is down there not push back against the paradropping marines, sounds kinda suicidal to me.
I believe my reasoning is fair, and i have not refused any other orders and deployed as normal.
Now, Nessie doesn’t find that plan to be suicidal, but very dangerously.
Just because they not deploying me “alone” but with “some” marines from other squads.
I didn’t knew it needs a specific amount of marines to not be a suicidal order. How many are needed? 5?, 10?, 15?
So if i tell one marine to cross the burning water in Trijent, is suicidal, but if i tell all the squads to do it, it isn’t? by this reasoning.
This is the resulting note, wich also states “But not suicidal enough” So, it is suicidal? or it isn’t? or it is, but not enough suicidal what will it be.
(Edit: May also add, Medium Roleplay moment. You are responding to a distress signal, and your plan is to OB their Medical Area? Hooray, Warcrimes. And have “some” marines paradrop there, unaware of what even is the issue, or what you are facing if anything, with no comms, and no one to cover us, so you are effectively gambling a 50/50 suicidal mission, and 50% of your marine force getting killed and unrecoverable, if that doesn’t sound suicidal, idk what does.)
Evidence:
Not much else to add unless you want to check the Admin PM logs for the same reasoning i explaining here.
