IV. Divisions
This is a big post, meant to store all the info you'll need in 1 place. Press both the CTRL button and F at the same time to search the page. Type in any section listed in the contents to skip to it. If any information isn't here that you need, PM any highrank.
I. [RULES]
We don't strictly enforce rules, but we expect them to be followed.
What is expected of you:
-**Listen to orders by highranks
--You may question orders if they are completely unreasonable or cause you to break a rule.
---Do not question orders during raids or defenses if time is of the essence.**
-Wear uniform to ALL UAF events, failure to do so will result in being excluded from the event (this includes in trainings!) in raids/defenses your effort will be disregarded if your uniform is absent.
-Follow rules listed in the current fort's description. Failure to oblige will result in a kick/ban.
-Do not fight(argue) with other members on the wall or in UAF places (especially during clan functions). Keep it between you guys - don't bring it to UAF--This includes name calling, insulting, etc.
--If you continue to argue after a High Rank has told you to stop, you will be demoted.
-Use common sense. Not all rules are listed here because we feel they don't need to be.
-In situations where highranks are not present, the member(s) with the highest rank may command the UAF soldiers(or collaborate with others of the same rank) if it is necessary(this means, don't order around people at the fort when there's no raiders, because there's no reason to). If the leader is not competent and the situation becomes worse, their orders may be ignored if the majorty of the other UAF soldiers agree.
-RESPECT EACH OTHER, REGARDLESS OF RANK, AGE, LOOK, ETC.
Breaking the rules will cause you to be
A. Kicked/banned from the place
B. Demoted
C. If you are a known trouble maker, you may be exiled
D. Whatever punishment is listed next to a rule.

II. [RANKS]
Everything you need to know about ranks and getting promoted.
When you leave UAF, you are leaving your rank, too. After leaving, you may not have your rank back. Saying 'i left on accident' wont help, because you are asked if you are sure after you click leave. Only highranks who have left honorably may request their rank back, and will be approved or denied by a panel of current highranks.
Private-Must complete this obby http://www.roblox.com/UAF-Basic-training-Course-place?id=112715277 and get the badge, then private message a high rank. Must also buy uniform (the uniform must be on when PM is sent but it can be taken off after the promotion is given).
Corporal/Sergeant/Staff Sergeant/Lieutenant-Promoted for doing well in trainings, attending the majority of a raid, or the majorty of a defense for UAF or a UAF ally, whilst wearing the uniform (again representing UAF).
HIGHRANKS SHOULD HOLD DEBRIEFS AFTER RAIDS, AND GIVE OUT PROMOTIONS TO ANYONE THEY SEE FIT(ALTHOUGH YOU DONT HAVE TO GIVE ANY) AND SHORT MEETUPS AFTER DEFENSES FOR THE SAME PURPOSE AS DEBRIEF.
Captain-Go to any public place with ‘weapons’ (weapon: a melee or projectile-firing weapon) and a leader board. Achieve a KOs to WOs ratio of 3:1 or better, with your KOs being above 30 (30:10 being the minimum ratio, 33:11, and so on). You may send this to any highrank with promotion powers.
Major
After reaching the rank of Major, you will be expected to choose the path that represents your greatest strength. After proving your true potential in a specific core rank, you may continue to pursue self-betterment within that core field. As a major, your rank would be followed by your tier and number. For example, if I'm a Major, and in Design II, I would state that I'm 'Major Design II' or if I was Combat I, Major Combat I. ALL Majors have the same authority, a tier 2 does NOT have authority over a Tier 1 or no core field Majors.
Combat
-Combat I: This is the only core rank into which you are automatically accepted (should you choose it); if you have passed the rank of Captain, you may instantly diversify into Combat as your core skill. While in this rank, you will be expected to be constantly looking for a new challenge. If a shout is made to defend an ally, you’re gaining valuable experience with the weapons of our allies. If a defense is shouted at our fort, you’re definitely expected to be there- fighting is your passion, isn’t it? And if a raid is shouted, you’d rather be brutally mutilated by wild bears than miss it- live for the kill!
After a week at this skill tier, you may submit your final test.
Go to any public place with ‘weapons’ (weapon: a melee or projectile-firing weapon) and a leader board.
Achieve a KOs to WOs ratio of 5:1 or better, with your KOs being above 50 (50:10 being the minimum, 55:11, and so on).
Submit to Combat Artisan Ignitos
-Combat II:
To become Combat II, you must contest/impress Ignitos in battle. Do so, any you shall have earned your place as a second tier student of combat.
-Combat Professional:
Must fight for our Motherland often, and evidence of having four separate occurances of a 10:1 ratio, with at least 100 Knockouts (100:10, in this case), bring home a multitude of wins for our Motherland, and be able to contest with Preliators (or any other 'elites' division recognized as official) in battle, with their choice of weapons. Either make sure Combat Artisan Ignitos is present, or allow the comrade that you battled to relay the information to Ignitos that you performed well (if you did so).
Development
Development is a rather large tier, which branches off into 'Intellect' and 'Design'. Design splits off into 3 more paths, Building, Scripting, and Graphic Design.
Development I
-Intellect
This path is for anyone with decent use of language, an interest in writing, proficiency in eloquence, and the like. You can’t look at something without compiling a list of spelling mistakes, pointing out missing commas, or shaking your head at poor sentence structure. When someone argues with you, they’ll have hell to pay if their argument isn’t airtight; because when you argue, you want to make sure they know that they’re the one in the wrong. You have that mentality about you that simply radiates intelligence- the way you speak, the things you say, and how you present them to others are all important to you.
In order to diversify into this core rank path, complete the following prompt:
In 3 paragraphs, sum up the key attributes of what you think is a good [soldier] OR [leader] and use examples to back up your statement.
Submit your work to Intellect Artisan ShatteredRealities120.
-Design
You have ideas and you know how to implement them- but you just can’t seem to have your work appreciated! The path to official development within UAF begins here, within the Design Core Ranks.
The Design path branches off into three separate areas; one for script development, one for architectural design, and another for graphic design.
Entrance into the scripting subdivision of this core rank consists of your proficient completion of the below test:
Create a team-switch GUI incorporating (at the minimum) the following:
-- All elements in the GUI must be the "Custom" style.
-- It must be visually appealing.
-- It must have three buttons; UAF, Visitors and Raiders. UAF may not be able to switch into the "Raider" or "Visitor" teams. Visitors and Raiders may not be able to switch into the "UAF" team. (Teamcolors don't matter; use whatever as long as the scripting is sound.)
-- It MUST incorporate the "TweenPosition/TweenSize" methods. (Be creative.)
-- It MUST kill the user on switching teams.
-- You may not use the "MouseButton1Up" or "MouseButton1Down" events to connect to clicks.
-- The code may not use any deprecated methods/it must be done as efficiently as possible.
-- All lines must be commented appropriately to show your understanding.
BONUS: Use a table to store all of UAF's allies and place them on the UAF team upon entering.
Turn this test into Commander bloxman26 upon completion.
Entrance into the architectural design subdivision of this path consists of your proficient completion of the below test:
--Construct a home of your own design.
It must be:
---100% yours, nothing designed by anyone other than yourself should be included
---At least four rooms must be present in the design
---Fully furnished (Appliances for the kitchen, bed and dressers for the bedroom, etc)
Turn this test into General EmptyBaseplates upon completion.
-Entrance into the graphic design subdivision of this path consists of your proficient completion of the below test:
--Design a propaganda poster for UAF, or one of its divisions:
It must:
---Promote a specific ideal about UAF (strength, comradery, etc)
---Contain your original work (official UAF items such as the logo, uniform, weapons, forts, etc are exempt from this category)
---Be of high quality (if uploading a decal to ROBLOX absolutely ruins the quality of your piece, I recommend uploading it to imgur and sending the link to the Graphic Design artisan)
Turn this test into General EmptyBaseplates upon completion.
Development II
-Intellect
After reaching the rank of Development I via completing the requirements for the rank, and having it approved by the designated Artisan, you may complete one of the below tasks to advance to the rank of Development II via intellect should your admission be deemed fitting.
-Write a lengthy novelization of a situation, in which a civil uprising occurred against UAF. Must use actual members of the UAF group as character. The story must be based off of actual events, and should include legitimate details on the subject. It must explain in its entirety how the situation of unrest came to be, as well as how it was resolved. In addition, this must be portrayed in the format of a narrative, rather than an actual novel-based format. Of course, these will be issues UAF has resolved, as the Motherland simply doesn't fall to rebellions like that.
(Narrative; From the story-teller's point of view.)
-OR-
-Write a 5 page novelization, as if it were a novel, of a combat experience, either at Kopvervich, or an enemy clan's base, such as, if we were at war with RAT, Borealis. Must be either from the point of view of one soldier, or from a narrator's point of view.
Obvious requirement; UAF must win.
Send to ShatterredRealities120 for review
-Design
Design three ads, logos, or posters (propaganda) for the Urban Assault Forces, and present them to the design General EmptyBaseplates for approval.
You may also build, 3 small-mid sized, well thought out and planned(meaning they should things like, for example, ample cover in relation to starting/spawn points) combat maps fit for a training place, send to General Emptybaseplates for review.
You may script, a data persistance options menu to save on/off values and an animation using the mockingbird model found here[http://www.roblox.com/Mockingbird-Model-item?id=102175924], and send those to bloxman26 for review.
These members are the artistic backbone of our Motherland. They create fine masterpieces, and art that turns the souls of our people to courage, those of our foes to fear, and those of bystanders to certainty in wanting to be a part of what is the People's Bastion.
Development Professional
-Intellect
Offer a 5+ paragraph response to the following prompt;
In Voltaire's "Candide", Candide's philosophical mentor, Master Pangloss, is always confident that "All is best in this best of possible worlds". Is all best in UAF, and is this the best of possible worlds? If not, explain how so, as well as any suggestions that may lead to our coming closer to the Utopian world imagined by Pangloss and Candide.
A copy of the book can be found online, simply search "Voltaire Candide PDF"
Send to ShatterredRealities120 for review
-Design
The requirement for Professional of Design is different than those of the earlier tiers, as all three subdivisions (building, scripting, and graphic design) have the same one.
To reach Professional of Design, you must create something that best personifies your abilities (if you build, go all out- a humongous mansion; if you script, make something complex yet efficient, with hundreds or even thousands of lines of code; if graphic design is your cup of tea, maybe you could design an original logo, or a glitz and glamour propaganda poster!
The choice is yours to make, but whatever you make, make it spectacular! Submit it to Urban Development Head Bloxman26 (*If you are in Graphic Design, you must send it to EmptyBaseplates instead of Bloxman26.*) for review.
Should your submission be accepted, you are guaranteed a spot in Urban Development.
Should your original project not be accepted, you are allowed to modify it up to three separate times after three separate rejections before being required to restart, so use your trials wisely!
-Professional- Completed 1 tier
-Colonel- Assists Generals, does activities, etc.
-General-Generals are the best of the best, those who fearlessly lead UAF into battle. Generals are hand chosen by the high command for shining brighter than their comrades during their term as General. Alternatively, Generals also head departments, although becoming or being a General does not guarentee becoming head of a department.
-Legislature- High Command
-Commander- Commands clan
III [DEPARTMENTS]
"A General heads each department, they can have a co-head of the department which may be a Colonel or Higher. The Co-head will still be listed as a assistant. We currently have a max of 5 assistants, but it will be raised in our next elections. Each HR has a choice of a main department and secondary, thats why some people are in two departments.
Co-Heads have equal power with the department head, however, they do not have equal authority. For this reason, Co-Heads may handle the same things as the department's head when the department head is not able to handle them for whatever reason.
For reference, diamonds denote Co-Heads."

IV [Divisions]
Official Divisions are recognized by the commander, as official(duh, right?).
For a division to become official, it must serve a purpose and/or be owned or monitored by a highrank. Very few divisions are official - please don't ask if yours can be.
