The 1st Special Forces Operational Detachment (commonly referred to as "Delta"), initially formed in the late 20th century and re-formed again in 689 AS, is made up from the most distinguished and skilled personnel from all of Liberty's military branches. Highly trained and efficient and equipped with state-of-the-art weaponry, Delta operators conduct various asymmetric warfare operations in order to enforce Libertonian interests, on the ground as well as in space.

== Synopsis ==
 
 
 
Only the best of the best are allowed to serve in the legendary 1st-SFOD. To be even considered just a candidate for the rigorous training procedures one need to complete to be admitted into the 1st, one has to fulfill high expectations, and only a few of those that actually make it into the 1st's special training camp complete their courses successfully. These that do, however, can be considered true masters of their art: be it conventional, unconventional or psychological warfare, be the battlefield on the ground or in space, be there a need for combat or negotiation - the operators of the 1st are well prepared for it.
 
 
 
== Objectives ==
 
 
 
The 1st's objectives include, but are not limited to, counterterrorism, dealing with hostage situations, protecting high-level VIPs, reconnaissance, drug raids and surgical strikes - however, we are not a police force. Fighting low-level piracy, smuggling and similar forms of crime is the duty of the LPI; while we do not tolerate individuals engaged in such activities, we will not actively hunt them down.
 
 
 
== Relationship to the Navy ==
 
 
 
Since the 1st belongs to a different branch of the armed forces than these employed in the Liberty Navy, 1st Operators do not possess any (legal) authority over Navy soldiers and vice-versa. Joint operations under a unified command, usually carefully planned but also sometimes called in spontaneously in cases of emergency, take place quite frequently.
 
 
 
== Ranks ==
 
 
 
The 1st does not directly recruit civilians into their ranks. All 1st operators have served in the Liberty Army (or, in some exceptional cases, Navy or Marine Corps) and reached at least the rank of Sergeant or First Lieutenant (Second Lieutenants serving in the 1st are exclusively former enlisted soldiers who attended officer school).
 
 
 
=== Enlisted personnel ===
 
Enlisted members are the "grunts" of the 1st (very skilled and expensive grunts, that is).
 
* E-5 Sergeant (Fireteam member)
 
* E-6 Staff Sergeant (Fireteam member or junior squad leader, in charge of special administrative tasks)
 
* E-7 Sergeant First Class (Fireteam or junior squad leader)
 
 
 
=== Non-commissioned officers ===
 
NCOs are specialized officers while commissioned officers are generalized officers. Both hold equal authority most of the time.
 
* WO-1 Warrant Officer (Fireteam leader of junior squad leader)
 
* CWO-* Chief Warrant Officer (From CWO-1 - squad leader to CWO-5 - Executive Officer)
 
 
 
=== Commissioned officers ===
 
Generalized officers. They have attended [[West Point Academy]] or Officer school.
 
* O-1 Second Lieutenant (Fireteam leader or squad sleader)
 
* O-2 First Lieutenant (Squad leader)
 
* O-3 Captain (Squad leader or junior XO, has access to Gunboat-class vessels)
 
* O-4 Major (Executive Officer, has access to Gunboat-class vessels)
 
* O-5 Lieutenant Colonel (XO or junior Commanding Officer, has access to Gunboat-class vessels and above)
 
* 0-6 Colonel (CO, Junior 1st Leader, has access to Gunboat-class vessels and above)
 
* O-8 Major General (CO, 1st Leader, in command of the [1st]LMV.Freedom; there is no need for a Brigadier General in the 1st)
 
 
 
== Ships used ==
 
  
* One [[Liberty Assault Battlecruiser]] as our flagship; not actually meant for combat
+
The '''1st Special Activities Division''' - commonly referred to as '''Delta''' after the unit's former military designation - is the [[Liberty Security Force]]'s main paramilitary operations wing.

* [[Armored Transport|Armored Transports]]
 
* [[Havoc Mk II]] bombers
 
* [[Guardian]] as well as [[Avenger]] VHFs
 
* [[Liberator]] LFs
 
  
Special permissions for civilian ships may be granted.
+
Only the Liberty Military's most promising Special Operations Forces Officers are given the opportunity to opt in for the extensive program turning these already more-than-capable men and (as of the 6th Century) women into transhuman agents of one of the most powerful unconventional warfare units Sirius has ever seen. After they complete their training and augmentation at a place called '''"The Farm"''', the clandestine 1st operators (colloquially known as "spies") are ready for rapid short-notice deployment all over the [[Sirius Sector]] and capable of succeeding superbly at missions no other is capable of handling.
  
== Recruitment ==

Currently, the 1st is officially recruiting, and is looking for players with following abilities:

*Above-than-average roleplaying skills in any situation
+
As undercover 1st Paramilitary Operators assume many roles, there are no "equipment standards" in the unit - instead, operators chose the equipment most suitable for their respective missions. From [[Liberty Army#Equipment|Mobile Infantry Assault Suits]] over [[Outcasts|Maltese]] handguns to [[Artifacts|Alien technology]], there are few things not to be found within the 1st's extensive armory.<br><br>
*Willingness to learn our terminology, chain of command, rules of engagement etc
 
*Willingness to be a good teamplayer with a sense of fair play
 
*Knowing and obeying the server rules
 
  
What does not matter to us:
+
Characters in the 1st use ID and equipment based on the role they are playing. Most members have a character for official, "white" operations, in which Liberty Military hardware and a LSF ID are used. Many 1st characters are neither wearing tags nor a Liberty lawful-related ID however: they are spies, and spies are known for their versatility. However, no 1st ship will "mix up" equipment of factions opposing each other.
  
*Your flying skills. You will learn as you go.
+
= [[Image:1stRoster.png]] =
  
We also expect our members to work out and write a short biography as well as to regularly report their actions in our message dump (which will be opened as soon as we grow in size and everything is fully set up).
+
= [[Image:1stRecruitment.png]] =
  
On a final notice - we mainly utilize fighters for our combat operations. Higher ranking officers will have access to a Gunboat and XO as well as CO of the unit will have access to a Cruiser which acts as our flagship and mobile carrier. For the time being, we will not use any Battleships.
+
Individuals directly and permanently joining the 1st are very rare - most agents are recruited from Liberty's prime SOF units after a few years of service. Thus, recruitment will mainly be conducted through ingame roleplaying rather than forum RP or a recruitment thread. Contacting a leading 1st member and providing him the name of your character is advised however as it makes things easier for both sides. If you're interested in joining up, make sure you fulfill the following requirements:

*You are able to maintain above-than-average roleplaying skills in any situation.

*You are a good teamplayer with a sense of fair play. Knowing and obeying server rules is a must.

The 1st Special Activities Division - commonly referred to as Delta after the unit's former military designation - is the Liberty Security Force's main paramilitary operations wing. It's tasks include counter-terrorism, counter-espionage, espionage, psychological, political and economical warfare as well as covert action.

Only the Liberty Military's most promising Special Operations Forces Officers are given the opportunity to opt in for the extensive program turning these already more-than-capable men and (as of the 6th Century) women into transhuman agents of one of the most powerful unconventional warfare units Sirius has ever seen. After they complete their training and augmentation at a place called "The Farm", the clandestine 1st operators (colloquially known as "spies") are ready for rapid short-notice deployment all over the Sirius Sector and capable of succeeding superbly at missions no other is capable of handling.

As undercover 1st Paramilitary Operators assume many roles, there are no "equipment standards" in the unit - instead, operators chose the equipment most suitable for their respective missions. From Mobile Infantry Assault Suits over Maltese handguns to Alien technology, there are few things not to be found within the 1st's extensive armory.

Characters in the 1st use ID and equipment based on the role they are playing. Most members have a character for official, "white" operations, in which Liberty Military hardware and a LSF ID are used. Many 1st characters are neither wearing tags nor a Liberty lawful-related ID however: they are spies, and spies are known for their versatility. However, no 1st ship will "mix up" equipment of factions opposing each other.

Individuals directly and permanently joining the 1st are very rare - most agents are recruited from Liberty's prime SOF units after a few years of service. Thus, recruitment will mainly be conducted through ingame roleplaying rather than forum RP or a recruitment thread. Contacting a leading 1st member and providing him the name of your character is advised however as it makes things easier for both sides. If you're interested in joining up, make sure you fulfill the following requirements:

  • You are able to maintain above-than-average roleplaying skills in any situation.
  • You are a good teamplayer with a sense of fair play. Knowing and obeying server rules is a must.
  • You are willing to get immersed into the Spy-Fi theme of our faction and to learn our slang.
  • You have some common sense.

What does not matter to us are your flying skills - as everyone, you will learn as you go, and, if desired, training sessions can be arranged. Forum RP beyond a short biography of your character is not necessary, though always welcome (being a good novelist does not imply being a good actor and vice versa - we judge people on their ingame RP, not on their forum RP).
