# Federation Army **Description**: The army. It gets what needs to be done, done. It deals with terrorists, insurgents, pirates, and other threats which need to be dealt with through the use of small - or large - arms. The army is there to deal with threats when they come bearing assault rifles, power armour, and nuclear grenades. **Nationality:** [[RPG/RPG V1/Nations/Federation/United Federation of Earth]]. **Injury Payments**: 100%. **Term Length**: 10 years --- ## Progress | Roll | 5 Entry Requirements | 9 Survival | 11 Advance | | -------------- | --------------------------------------- | --------------------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | | 2D6 + Attr Mod | [[Brawn]], [[Reflex]], [[Fortitude]] 6+ | [[Brawn]], [[Reflex]], [[Fortitude]] 8+ | [[Charisma]], [[Social Standing]], [[Intelligence]], [[Education]], [[Technical]] 10+ | **Assignments** - _Infantry_: Infantry are the dumb grunts who get to be boots on the ground. They are essential for every operation, and are used all over the Federation in every role from flood prevention to counter-terrorist and national defense operations. - _Support_: Support is the big guns, the guys who drive and shoot the trucks, and other such 'support' roles. Safer to a degree, but in the army it’s only degrees, not absolutes. - _Operations_: Operations run the show. They're the people in the combat tents sending support to infantry. All done - at best - a few kliks from the front lines. #### 6.
