| I would like to request a Private Military force on Antared III based out of the city of Durollia under the command of Cyrnorsil Vuhrakk.
Durollia Peacekeepers
Personnel:
- (50) Trained Paramilitary Personnel
Peacekeeper Weapons:
Peacekeeper Armor
- (50) Surplus Phase II Clone Trooper Armor
Peacekeeper Vehicles
Peacekeeper Compound
(Modeled after the following images)
- Officers Barracks = Command Structures
- Officers Mess = Medical Wing
- AT-ST Storage Hangers = Vehicle Storage / Motor Pool
- Motor Pool = Compound Prison
- Permacrete Walls Installed around compound just inside of Permacrete Ditch
- Smaller Landing Field
- Minus Field TIE Racks
Peacekeeper Compound Defenses
- Thick Permacrete Walls
- Permacrete Ditch
- (3) EWHB-12 Heavy Repeating Blasters (Aimed at front gate)
- (4) Grenade Mortars
- BP.5 Anti-Aircraft Turrets (Providing Overlapping fields of fire)
- BP.4 Anti-Vehicle Turrets
- BP.2 Anti-Infantry Turrets
I am currently working on a bio for Cyrnorsil Vuhrakk and will have it up either tomorrow or in the next couple of days when I am able to put the entire bio together. I can also come up with a bio specifically for the Durollia Peacekeepers, that would add a little more time in completing both profiles if needed.
What I have so far though to explain the Durollia Peacekeepers is that they are formed due to the criminal background and history of Antared III. They form to ensure that no criminal family becomes stronger than the others, a way to keep both the violence between crime families minimal and to ensure the safety of civilians that would be trapped between the crime family feuds. In the most extreme cases they would mobilize against an entire crime family if it becomes too dangerous and threatening to others that would require the removal of the crime family to reinstall a sense of equality between the criminal factions. While there are other spaceports and cities, these actions, due to the name sake of the peacekeepers, would be limited to the spaceport city of Durollia for the time being until they are capable of expanding their operations into the other spaceport cities or other locations on the planet.

| I'll approve of most of this, but to clear up a bit of background first, I find it hard to believe that criminal outfits on Antared III can operate totally unmolested by law enforcement—which they do—unless these criminal outfits are greasing the palms of police and government types. Presumably, then, shutting down this group of heavily-armed crime-fighting vigilantes is going to be priority numero uno of Antared's law enforcement; how is it, then, that an operation of this scale remains under wraps? A bit of information on this would be appreciated, since the Peacekeepers would need to lay low both from law enforcement and from all of the crime families, who, if they have any sort of unity at all, it'd be unity in hatred of Cyrnorsil's group. Having operated on Antared III for a few years now, does it have a history of inadvertant cop-killing? What's the public's opinion of these self-anointed Peacekeepers, etc.? (For the record, I'm willing to stipulate that Antared's law enforcement is also incompetent and poorly-equipped, since there's no indication otherwise).
In the meantime, I vote to DENY any complete sets of clone trooper armor. There's nothing in Cyrnorsil's background that would suggest any special access to clone trooper armor, so I'm guessing he's buying them on the black market or picking them up as surplus. If that's the case I can approve of some beaten up Phase-II chest plates, elbow, wrist, and shin guards, boots, etc., but not a platoon's worth of full sets of armor.

| Also, does the Cronese Mandate sell its designs outside of the Cronese Mandate? Can it do so? Would the Dragon gunships have been purchased directly from CMMI, or second-hand?

| CMMI would sell the Dragon Gunships, though they would be in limited numbers since many of the vehicles built by CMMI would be used directly by the Mandate. So I would be okay with saying that CMMI did sale at least two gunships to the Durollia Peacekeepers.

| From my understanding of the article on Antared III, it is hard to really pin point where the local law enforcement stand. The history of Antared III shows that it's been largely left out of (and to an extent) not kept track of galactic affairs. The article goes on to say that many pirates set up shop on the world, which are left alone by the local law enforcement, making it difficult once more to pin point their stance. This could either be from the local law enforcement being corrupt, ie taking bribes to sit on their hands, or juts lazy, ie too lazy to do their job or risk their life in an attempt to stop these criminal elements on the world. With either one of those being true, in my mind I could see the common citizen of Antared III (the most likely to be put in harms way by a lazy or corrupt police force) supporting the Durollia Peacekeepers more than standing up and demanding that they be locked up for their attempts at protecting the common citizen.
The Durollia Peacekeepers are first and foremost set on protecting the citizens of Durollia (the space port which they are named after) meaning that the bulk of their operations would be set up in this city. I see them more as an unofficial arm (of course we can say vigilantes) of the local police force. Having the support of the local civilian populace that they protect, and of those few local law enforcement personnel that are either not lazy or on the take that see the Durollia Peacekeepers as a necessity, or even a needed change to take over the local law enforcement office and replace those lazy and corrupt personnel. Their first concern of course is the safety of the people, which would often lead them to using the lower settings on their blasters to stun criminal or corrupt law enforcement personnel, as they only kill when there are no other options, ie talking the other side down, using less lethal settings of the blasters, etc etc. Their goal is to attempt to apprehend corrupt personnel in the law enforcement to turn them over to those few that are not lazy or corrupted to be dealt with.
Also from my understanding in the few threads that I've read that involve Antared III, it would appear that it has been set up to show the criminal families are in turmoil and fighting against each other, meaning that it would be more hazardous for the civilian populace, whom would be caught in the cross fire, giving more support to the Durollia Peacekeepers that are there to see to the protection of the people. After all, many of these trained personnel are loyal soldiers that served with Cyrnor'sil during the Clone Wars, and have some tie to the world of Antared III and want to see it changed from a den of criminals. This would give even more support as many of those serving under Cyrnor'sil will have lost either entire families to the criminal activity (like Cyrnor'sil) or family members to the violence wrought about by these criminal families which are at war with each other.
Now as for the Phase II clone trooper armor, I can understand the hesitation in approving the full set, I would like to put this in place then.
- (5) Phase II Clone Trooper Armor (Full sets)
- (45) Phase II Clone Trooper Armor
- Chest Plate
- Boots & Shin Guards (Stops at knees)
- Gauntlet (Covers from hand up to elbow)

| I have to look a bit longer at the bulk of the request. But I'd like to address your last stipulation.
You're, in essence, still requesting 45 Phase-II sets minus the thighguards and helmets, from the look of it. I think what Jace meant when he suggested finding random parts, the idea was that they'd be relatively different among individual soldiers (one guy might have a gauntlet or two, while another might have been lucky enough to find a roughshod chestpiece). The effect was, mainly, so that they weren't worth listing and thus not a superfluous number to debate on.

| The 45 Phase II sets are not being requested as minus the thigh guards, shoulder armor and helmets. The list of the chest plate, boots, etc etc are just a small note as to which pieces of armor would be found. Not all 45 would be a full set of the chest plate, boots, etc etc. It is just a list of the random parts that one would find when looking at the 45. While granted you might be able to pull a set off of a few of the men in that group, each one would still have bits of the armor from that list.

| Where there's doubt about the canon, I prefer the benefit of that doubt to go to the RPer, so I'm going to go along with your explanation of the law enforcement situation, especially the acknowledgment that occasionally the police do try to stop the Peacekeepers when their vigilante antics become impossible to ignore. But a public, and even a police force, that's broadly supportive of the Peacekeepers is something I'm okay with. But even so, I recommend a low profile; we can assume there will always be those law enforcement types who are dedicated to the rule of law and won't look any more kindly on vigilantes than they do on crime families, and there will always be those who are on the payroll of those crime families and won't look kindly on vigilantes for that reason, too.
As for the armor. WHATEVER. Just no full, standard sets of clone armor, please.
