-:// FEAR Military Academy Guide \\:- ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ Table of Contents [1] Introduction [2] Rank Hierarchy [3] Leadership Tests [4] Other Qualifications Necessary for being an Officer [5] Roles and duties of the Academy's Overseers. [6] Improvement Classes [7] Holding the Officer position & Officer Cap [8] Conclusion ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ [1] Introduction As of recently, it has become clear to the High Command of FEAR, that FEAR School, a division charged with the rank progression of FEAR members to Officer, possessed several flaws. The leadership as well as the over course was found to be subpar to the standards needed to become an officer in FEAR. Because of this, at a recent meeting; High Command reached the verdict that "FEAR School" should promptly be shut down, and replaced with a new; improved, program for getting Officer. This new group was deemed to be named the "FEAR Military Academy". This guide will layout the division clearly and effectively, please take the time to read through carefully. Our goal is to produce outstanding individuals as officers in FEAR. ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ [2] Rank Hierarchy The ranking system within the Military Academy is quite simple. Entry to the group is restricted to current Majors of FEAR. Ranks are as followed - "Enlist" - A current Major of FEAR who has just joined the FEAR Military Academy (FMA). "Cadet level 1" - A cadet undergoing Maturity/Grammar/Obedience testing and instruction "Cadet level 2" - A cadet under Combatant Skills testing and instruction "Cadet Level 3" - A cadet in leadership testing/instruction as well as final overview testing for complete quality. "Ready for Review" - A cadet who has passed the final leadership testing and overview. He/she awaits an overview with the Overseer of the Military Academy "Graduate" - A current Officer of FEAR who has graduated the FMA program. *Once 8 graduates pass the academy, a graduation ceremony takes place, and a new semester begins* "Supervisor" - A member of FEAR's High Command who tests and regulates members within the Academy and also assistants to the Overseer of the Military Academy "Overseer" - The Director of Training and Education in the First Encounter Assault Recon "Commander of FEAR" – The current Commander of FEAR. ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ [3] Leadership Tests The leadership tests consist of three stages; each stage must be passed to continue on to the next stage. All tests must be administered by an Supervisor+. Test Stage one is a live interview, with questions about the applying Cadet level 3's past experiences in FEAR. These interviews will be similar to Military Police\ Honor Division Interviews, which occur in a one on one session. Test Stage two is a written examination of the Cadet level 3; which provides several possible situations which could occur in the course of being an Officer, is to be posted on a locked thread on C&G, potential questions will be created by the Department of Training and Education. Test Stage three is a three part "live" test series. Each Cadet level 3 will chose either option one or two as part of their Stage three testing. However, the final part of Stage three testing is mandatory. Option one of Stage three is a situation in which the Cadet level 3 is told to lead a defense on the current primary fort of FEAR. An Supervisor+ will accompany the Cadet level 3; and shout for a patrol at the fort. Once around 13 FEAR members have arrived, FEAR's Replica Forces will be told to launch a practice raid on the fort via alternate accounts. During this raid, it will be the Cadet level 3's role to lead the defenders and organize efforts to stop the raiders. In the event that either the raiders become exceedingly close to winning, or a time span of 25 minutes passes; Replica Forces will be told to back off, and the Cadet level 3 is failed. If the Cadet level 3 successfully holds Replica Forces off for 25 minutes, the Cadet level 3 is passed. Option two of Stage three is a situation in which the Cadet level 3, accompanied by an Supervisor+ of the Academy, is told to lead a practice raid against an allied clan, who has agreed to defend their base and allow FEAR to practice raid for the sake of testing Cadet level 3s. *This option is one that will RARELY be allowed to be chosen, and require's the permission of the Overseer of the Military Academy.* The Cadet level 3’s goal will be to manage the troops who raid, and attempt to win; however, it is also his/her goal to assure that the troops are respectful to the defenders, and deals with any of the troops who choose to act up. After either winning the practice raid, or a time span of 50 minutes passes, the Cadet level 3 will be told to tell the troops to retreat. If the Cadet level 3 was successful, he/she will be passed, or vice versa. The final part of Stage three is a situation in which the Cadet level 3, supervised by an Supervisor+, will lead a training at one of FEAR's primary training places at the time. It will be the Cadet level 3's job to ensure that the troops are under control, while leading the training. This part of stage three has no time restrictions, and will be ended either upon the request of the Supervisor+, or by the request of the Cadet level 3, if he or she feels the training has run a full lifespan, and should be ended. The Cadet level 3 will be judged by the Supervisor+, if they pass, the Supervisor+ will place the Cadet level 3 into Ready for Review. In the event a Cadet level 3 fails a test, the latest stage they have completed, and the date of the test they did not pass, would be noted. After failing a test, applying Cadet level 3s cannot test for another 12 days. Failure to follow this policy, or lying about the date of your most recent test will result in a series of punishments, including an extra 20 days added to the time at which the Cadet level 3 will have to wait for his or her next test. ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ [4] Other Qualifications Necessary for being an Officer Due to the powers that may be given to Officers in the future, if the Officer base is found to be up to standard, it is imperative Officers have several basic achievements within FEAR. These may be changed at any point, under the wishes of FEAR's High Command. - Applying Major must have been a member of FEAR for at least 60 days (roughly 2 months) - Applying Majors must be mature, and serious about their jobs - Applying Majors must be active, and be on at least once a week at minimum - Applying Majors must have a constant understanding of events happening in the clan world More qualifications may be added or removed by High Command at any point. ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ [5] Roles and duties of the Supervisors of the Academy Supervisors of the academy are members of FEAR's High Command who are hand-picked by the Department of Training and Education, and who have decided to dedicate some of their time to helping build better generations of Officers, and therefore, better generations of HCOM. They are also chosen assistants of the Director of Training and Education. The goal of the Supervisors is to constantly maintain a steady stream of mature, skilled, and responsible Officers for FEAR. It is their job to help oversee the Academy, and to help create and manage the curriculum of the Academy. It is their duty to make sure all Officers are up to the standards set by the Academy, and an inept Officer passing the Academy will be held as their responsibility. Supervisor’s two primary roles are to test applying Cadets, and teach improvement classes, which will be talked about later in this document. Supervisors upon joining the Academy must agree to a strict set of rules, preventing Supervisors from editing test results. Any Supervisor found unjustly changing the results of a test, will be removed, and punished by HCOM, as an act of corruption. ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ [6] Improvement Classes Improvement classes are training sessions, hosted by an Supervisor+, which can cover any of the topics relevant to leadership and or tests in the Academy. Example Improvement Classes may cover; - How to effectively manage troops in combat - How to keep order during activities - How to lead 'good' trainings - Etc These are simply a list of examples, Supervisors may base classes off whatever they see necessary to improve those who want to move up in the Academy. Improvement Classes feature no promotions, simply training for those who need to improve themselves to past higher tests in the Academy. It is the goal of the Academy to have at least 2 improvement classes per week. ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ [7] Holding the Officer position & Officer Cap As seen currently in FEAR; we have a huge amount of Officers, however, most are inactive, or have other clans they work with more than FEAR. This is effectively preventing new Officers, due to the Officer cap in place. Therefore, to prevent a situation as we have from happening again, a new set of standards for holding the position of Officer should be put in place. Outlines for these standards are as following; these standards are subject to change at any point via the will of FEAR's HCOM. - Must be active; on at least once a week at minimum, excluding vacations/personal leaves, which should be announced in a forum thread for later references. - Must be serious; Proof of any Officer "trolling", breaking FEAR rules, or causing any sort of issues in FEAR will be swiftly investigated by FEAR's HCOM, punishments found fitting will be distributed. If the crime or action is serious enough, the person may be demoted for their actions, and would have to go through the academy again. - Must not abuse their position; any sort of attempts to use their position for personal gain, or for the loss of another FEAR member, will result in punishments for the Officer. Because of these new standards, FEAR's Officer position should not become "clogged" with masses of inept Officers, instead allowing the deserving and skilled members to become Officers, which would allow new Officers to have a take at the position and hopefully do better. Because Officers will be a much more powerful position, and harder to achieve, a lower Officer cap should be set to keep the role from becoming too common, advised new cap would be between 30-60, an official number will be set later by HCOM. ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ [8] Conclusion The hope for the FEAR Military Academy is so that the overall quality of the officers in F.E.A.R. are exponentially higher than what they are now. We are committed to a certain degree of excellence in the teaching and progression of the majors entering the FEAR Military Academy. Hail Venezia! ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ - Written and Approved by General Andrew204, Director of Training and Education, Overseer of the Military Academy - Written and Revised by Colonel HD188753, Supervisor of the Military Academy - Revised by Colonel Randomnes2345, Supervisor of the Military Academy |

| I feel so honored to be the first comment. All of my hard work and dedication has paid off. Getting the top comment has been a dream of mine for many years, and i would like to thank those who have helped me along the way. First and foremost i would like to thank god for giving me this opportunity. Next i would like to thank my parents. I want to thank my friend Josh Arcaro, for being really skinny and always there for me. I would also like to thank my pet tadpole for surviving against all odds for over a week. Next i would like to thank the squirrel that lives in my backyard for climbing trees because that gives me inspiration that i need to get through the day. This is a special moment in my life and i would like to thank any of my unmentioned friends and family that have helped me along the way. This moment will be a moment that i will never forget. I just remembered a few other people i would like to thank; facebook, the fish i caught in the third grade, my light in my room bc i wouldn’t be able to see the keyboard without it, the internet for letting me go on facebook, my house because without it i would be homeless, and last but not least i would like to thank all the people out there that actually took time out of their day to read this. I cannot stress how much of a big deal to me this is. I have been trying to be the first comment on a post for years, but that has not been possible until this amazing day. Hopefully my good luck will continue, but this is undoubtedly a rare occasion. If you asked me how i did this, i would say, you can achieve anything u set your mind on. To all the kids out there reading this, i would like to tell them to follow their dreams. Being the top comment is amazing, thank you everyone. |

unableeric,
strictness is what got fs shut down.
i hated seeing people turn into robots, so i allowed personality. big mistake.
this new system is fine. andrew is a great leader. he'll be sure that you people aren't turned into robots, RIGHT, ANDREW?
the fact that i allowed people to have fun and enjoy themselves ended up making them "unfit" for the high ranks' standards.
that's why fs was shut down and this division was created.
i'm telling you, go along with it. do what you're told. and deal with the things you don't like.
