WW2 Roleplay in Second Life

We're doing more than just KillCount Combat.

For those interested in such things, we operate several WW2 groups specific to roleplay (RP) in the New Bastogne regions in Second Life. We felt it was lacking depth without our kind of mission oriented RP, so we've created these groups to augment the combat games that normally occur. We're filling in the gaps. Instead of KillCounts, we do spy and sabotage missions.

 New Bastogne, SL's version of Caen, France



On the Allied side:

366 Squadron RAF (owner Cornelius Fanshaw)
One of the more obscure squadrons of the RAF. Very few records of the wartime service are  available other than some tantalising details in other unit histories. Labeled as a "Special Duties" squadron, it is known to have taken part in Operation Backfire and Operation Surgeon and to have been used by SHAEF as part of T-Force.

ALLIED INTELLIGENCE (WW2 Era) (owner Zoe Connolly)
An ALLIED COMMUNICATIONS group dedicated to providing the latest intelligence on AXIS positions and movements in the WW2 Era New Bastogne Regions that simulate NAZI Occupied France. MI6, SOE, OSS, 366 Sqn RAF, T-Force.

La Résistance française  (owner Zoe Connolly)
La Résistance française is a group dedicated to espionage and sabotage roleplay in the WW2 Era New Bastogne Regions that simulate NAZI Occupied France. We work in coordination with the following groups: ALLIED INTELLIGENCE and 366 Squadron RAF.

La Résistance française  (French Resistance)


The French Resistance group is perfect roleplay in SL for women with moxie.  Just look at this article of the derring-do of real life Resistance Fighter Simone Segouin. Simone was 18 years old when she fought the Nazis.







On the AXIS side:

Abwehr III Counter-Intelligence  (owner Zabrina Jaeger)(aka my alt Zabrina McMahon)
Abwehr III Counter Intelligence IIIF and Minister of Armaments and War Production, Albert Speer, assigned a special Abwehr team to Caen France. Our Mission: To stop the SOE, OSS, T-Force, 366 Sqn RAF and their attempts to steal or destroy Reich special weapons technology.

We decided we needed an AXIS adversary that played by our roleplay rules and in the end, lost most of their battles to us as ALLIES. Who better to do this than us, right?

Zabrina's backstory
Major Zabrina Jaeger of the Abwehr III. A cold and calculating intelligence officer sent to Caen France by Minister of Armaments and War Production, Albert Speer. Her mission: to protect assets and personnel related to German Military Secrets and Wunderwaffe.

Mission 3 was another success for 366 Squadron RAF


Below are my notes for the mission briefing...

Saturday 12 December 2015, 8:00 AM SL Start Time

MISSION GOALS

  1. Deliver Arms shipment to French Resistance drop site.

  1. Pickup NAZI crate of stolen French Art.


The DETAILS:

From the Allied Base we go through Caen (for added danger), then back track to Leona's Café just south of the Cathedral. From Leona's we walk/run to a nearby Barn and place the Arms Crate inside and behind an old rusted out truck. The group then proceeds to the Riverfront Warehouse  for pickup of the Art Crate. (If at any point, you're "killed" and respawn, just pick up the mission where you left off, also get status updates via radio).

Kohona  from the Underground has arranged for a truck to help us, and the art pieces, get away and back to Allied Occupied Territory.

Once the crate is on the Truck, we drive to the Allied Base as quickly as possible. Be warned the truck is slow, so we'll need all riders alert with guns ready. It might also be wise for someone to acquire a second vehicle to distract and decoy away from the cargo truck.

So that' the plan. With the distances close together, this Mission may sound simple -- and I hope it is, but here's the trick… Right now, more and more Axis members learn of our existence and they will know more about us each week. Are they smart enough to pick up on our patterns and methods?  As I announced last weekend, a team was sent from Berlin specifically to the Caen region to ruin our day. Also, there's the usual battle thug types who have seen us during previous missions. 

Stay sharp and stay alive! Hopefully we'll have more of those Yanks in Tanks to distract Jerry, but for now, we may be on our own. 

Below are a few photos of the Mission. It was fast, fun and went very smoothly.








And now the pre-mission pics















All missions are conducted in the WW2 sims known as New Bastogne. A group of regions depicting the Nazi Occupation of France and the Allied Struggle to Liberate the Country.
