Threat Levels


Introduction: Threat levels are what the CCA uses as a guide to how they will perform their duties and standard procedure. Threat levels are adjusted by high ranking personnel and announced by Dispatch. If you are to hear it it will sounds like:

"Attention please, Threat Level adjustment: Level #, Optional Message."

The threat levels are as follows:

Level 1

Overview: Situation is contained
CP are only allowed to have stun sticks out unless threatened by rebels, exogen, necrotics, ect.
Re-educations should take place behind closed doors or not in public.
Killing is not allowed in public.
Make it seem as if combine are just normal police.


Level 2

Overview: Situation is escalating
CP are allowed to have weapons out and holstered.
Beatings are not allowed in public.
Killings are not allowed in public.
Manhacks are sent into areas to scout where city scanners cannot scout.

Level 3

Overview: Situation is unstable
Judgement Waiver is in effect.
All CP may have weapons out.
Overwatch my be called in on request of a high ranking unit.
OTA ECHO and DAGGER units may be called in.
Beatings are allowed in public.
Killings are not allowed in public.

Level 4

Overview: Situation is out of hand.
Autonomous Judgment Waiver is in effect.
Overwatch must be called in to deal with the situation.
OTA SPEAR units called in.
Beatings are allowed in public.
Killings are allowed in public.
Synths may be called in.
High ranking personnel are advised to remain indoors.
Make it seem combine are militaristic.


Examples of threat adjustment


Level 2: Riot, reports of weapons, reports of anti-civil activity, Block Inspections.
Level 3: Necrotic outbreak, Capital Malcompliance, Shootings.
Level 4: Exogen Attack, Death of a high ranking officer, deaths of OTA.



Standard Procedure


You are only allowed to have stunsticks on you unless the danger by rebels or any other threat that can't be dealt with.
You must give citizens at least one warning before you issue a non-compliance verdict.
Just like in HL2, if someone comes up to a CP he will push them back, they do it again he will stun-stick them. Be like this.
You may only have your stunstick out when a citizen gets too close to a guarded point, too close to you (second time), when administering a beating, or threatening a non-compliance verdict.
Pistols and all other weaponry must be holstered or not on your person unless the danger level indicates or you are under threat.


Arrest / Searching Procedure


Arresting people is also apart of your job, and depending on your division you may get used to it. Searching is also a part of the arrest process. You want to make sure you have zipites, which are found at the Citadel Armory.

Procedure

First make sure you are not around other citizens unless at a hardpoint, threat level allows re-education, or there is no other option.
Next, tie the citizen [Standard OOC practice: /me attempts to tie the citizen. | .// Resist? | If not then tie them by having a zip tie and pressing F3.]
Next you have the citizen apply, which is telling you their name and CID to enter into the datapad and adjust their criminal points accordingly [If they don't know how, tell them their CID is found by pressing F1]
Afterwords, you will search them [Standard OOC practice: /me pats down the citizen | Press F4 to search the citizen, taking all contriband if any and making sure not to steal tokens or non-contraband, and adjusting the crimes if they have contraband.]
Lastly, knock the citizen out with your stunstick by beating them with it until they are knocked out, then drag them to a cell and remember to announce it. [Remember, depending on your rank, you may be a bit scared of hurting people because you are just a normal citizen in armor.]


Light Sweep


These are usually conducted by OfC's or 01's and are a light sweep of a block. They are usually conducted by BLADE units and are designed to make sure the citizens can't hide their belongings before you enter

Procedure

One unit will block the entry to that floor of the building while one or two others search the rooms.

The searchers will knock on the door and yell "Civil Protection, open up!"
If they don't open up then yell "Final Warning" before kicking down the door to investigate.

All citizens inside will be forced to face the wall and units will search the room for contraband.
If they find none they continue on to the next room.


Judgement / Autonomous Judgement Waiver


Judgement Waivers are active when there is a serious threat and you need to get civilians out of danger.
Autonomous Judgement Waivers mean you have the right to amputate all citizens not inside (Unless OOC reasons)

Judge, Helix, and Savage units are to make sure they stay in their blocks.
Grid units are to clamp affected areas.
Blade units are to deal with the situation at hand.

Rules & Regulations



Upon agreement to the Unions' code of citizenship, each and every citizen has agreed to abide by a set of rules and set regulations to better enhance their current role as a civilized resident within the city. This not only assists in the residents protection, but it also serves to prevent emotional distress or other former emotions that would induce violence or other forms of harm to the resident. The following is a small list of set regulations that all residents of the sector must follow. If a citizen fails to abide by these codes and rules, the Civil-Protection Unit is to issue a verdict out of sight of other citizens. This is a very strict rule. We as Civil-Protection Units want the citizens performing in normal society to think they are safe. You will hear on broadcasts, "It's safer here." & "Remember your worth..." Let's not defeat the purpose of said broadcasts.

One Cycle = Five Minutes

Level 1


- Running.
- Jumping.
- Climbing.
- Yelling.
- General uncivil behavior.
- Loitering. (Standing doing nothing)

Punished with re-education.

Warning:
(When re-educating, just make them face the wall and stun them. You do not have to attempt to tie them or make them apply. Swing twice, not three times.)


Level 2


- Swearing.
- Discriminating another citizen.
- Talking to a Civil Protection officer without orders. (Usually ranks DvL and above as well as OTA, 05 - 01 is fine.)
- Committing a level 1 violation right after or shortly after a warning.
- Possession of green marked contraband.
- Wasting an officer’s time.
- Not speaking an official language.
- Not using authorized citizen clothing.
- Swimming.

Punished with negative 2 points, one cycle in detainment and a re-education.

(For each piece of green marked contraband they have, subtract two points from that citizen. Ex. If a citizen has three pieces of green marked contraband, take away six points. The reason would say *Citizen had three pieces of green marked contraband* so that a that anyone who reviews it will know why you took off six.)

(Remember to attempt to tie them and make them apply! Knock them out with your stun baton before taking them to the Nexus. We don't want them to see the inside other than their cell. When releasing them, knock them out once more, untie them, then dump them on the street or an apartment block.)

Level 3


- Failure to apply.
- Failure to report a crime. (In-action)
- Not following Civil Protections orders.
- Theft.
- Stalking.
- Selling items as a non C.W.U.
- Not following the C.W.U. manual. (E.x. Selling items for lower prices without permission from a DvL or above.)

Punished with negative 4 points, two cycles in detainment and a re-education.

Level 4


- Trespassing on Combine owned property.
- Stealing tokens.
- Direct unit harrasment. (Verbal, Spitting, Throwing Cans.)
- Fighting. (with other citizens, if a priority citizen is attacked it is counted as policide)
- Tampering with unconscious or deceased bodies.
- Resisting arrest and/or questioning.
- Property Vandalism.
- Unauthorized entrance into sewers.

Punished with negative 6 points, re-education and three cycles in detainment.

Level 5


- Assault of a Civil Protection Officer. (Punching a CP once or twice without inflicting critical damage.)
- Propaganda (light and not in favour of the combine)
- Ignoring lockdown of city blocks or entire city.
- Possession of yellow marked contraband.
- Lying on interrogation. (need actual proof or witness(es)!)
- Attempted suicide.

Punished with negative 8 points, re-education and four cycles in detainment.

(Interrogation for how contraband was obsessed.)

Level 6


- Trespassing inside the Nexus.
- UPA. (Unauthorised Procreative Activity; sex or similar RP.)
- Combine property vandalism.
- Mental imperfection. (10-103M)
- Homicide. (Murdering a citizen.)
- Attempted Capital Malcompliance. (Attempting to kill a unit, this means that the unit was injured so gravely he almost died.)
- Hostaging.
- Robbery.
- Contraband distribution.

Trial for amputation (which should be easily passed). If trial does not pass, punish with negative 10 points and five cycles in detainment.

Level 7


- Possession of red marked contraband.
- Capital Malcompliance (murdering a Civil Protection Officer)
- Trespassing in City Administator's office.
- Rebel conspiracy. (without physical evidence)
- Biotic that is unaccounted for.

Punished with amputation. (If no high rank can authorize, then 12 points and 6 cycles).

(Interrogation first for contraband, then amputate.)

Warning:
Never EVER steal items or tokens from players. Only take them if they steal the items or some other reasonable reason. Ask a higher rank if you can confiscate non-contraband items.


If there is a Judge on, your job is to /radio <What cell they are in> <The crime(s)> | If you are a Jury, you need to make them apply and punch in the information, and keep track of the length of detainment & let them out when done.

If there is no Jury on or they are doing something else, continue the normal detainment procedure, make them Apply in the detainment room in the Nexus, not out in public, or else that is strange. The only exception for making a criminal apply outside the Nexus is when they have done a level one violation. Once they have applied and added the points + they are in a cell, /radio <What Cell><The Crime(s)><Their name (First and last)>.

Judges will usually handle Amputations unless there are none available (No judges online).

If someone needs to be amputated for any reason. You can not do it unless ordered by a 01 and up. If due for amputation, detain as standard unless it is a high priority situation ( Gunfight ) or ordered otherwise by a higher rank, OfC and up.

To handle CWU crimes; They will be charged and punished as normal citizens. So they cannot be amputated for a level three violation unless there is another reason why, (Ex. Exceeded amount of Criminal Points).

Rank Personality



As a Civil Authority unit, you will be allowed certain authority depending on your rank. The privileges and authority can range from residential curfews to non-standard lethals being used for on-duty service. As a protection unit you are granted these authorizations solely on your service, roleplay and dedication as a unit.
Ranking authority is not valid for off-service protection units.

RCT:
Congrats! You made it in the CCA! But don't get all trigger happy. You're not supposed to have the pistol anyways. Basically, don't act like a hard ass, because you are still human like, but just in a uniform. You still have human traits, so you could have defects/flaws just like in the Character Development Section. You could be afraid of blood, or irritated of the sound of Radio chatter. Not complete hatred towards humans. Being active as well helps you, so you can promote, but don't get mad if you get promoted one day and not the next. You need to work at it. When you first spawn, give your pistol to a local admin or DvL Immediately. No RCT is entitled to a pistol. If caught with one, you could be enlisted on probation or kicked off the force, being amputated. And remember, you always need to be following regular rules OOC rules. Just because you are an CCA doesn't make you any better than a player OOCly. ICly, it does if you think about it that way. [Civil Protection]

05: Finally! Seemed like it took forever to rank up huh? But not there yet. You start to become the slightest bit of coldness towards Citizens, but you still have your fears just like an RCT. You still make plenty of mistakes, trying to cover them up from time to time. You don't have access to much, other than a brand new 9mm Pistol! [Civil Protection]

04: No, not quite there yet. But yes, slightly colder than a Citizen and making less mistakes than a 05. You get a little more access to things, but not a lot. Don't expect to promote again for a while. You still may have fears, and hesitation to torturing citizens, but no thought at all about Amputation. And another thing is we don't want you to make Citizens do things for you like a higher rank would, like picking up a can and putting it in the trash can. Don't stay unassigned for a long time, it may tick some people off. [Civil Protection]

03:
You are now a 03, and a little bit more coldly. You feel better about torturing Citizens, and made huge improvements from a recruit. No more silly mistakes! You may get assigned however to amputate, but not usually. So don't do anything regrettable like disobeying orders, since you are already disciplined enough not to disobey. You still have slight fears going on about sweeping for a suspect, but you will have to get used to what you do soon enough. [Civil Protection]

02:
Good, now you can be cold enough to start treating Citizens like a waste of space, and being good with any orders you are given. You cannot perform amputations just yet. You aren't as scared anymore on sweeps, and may even want to lead sometimes. Just don't go all happy with giving out orders... You still have your superiors. You now have access to an MP7. (You cannot amputate until you are an 01) [Civil Protection]

NOTE: All Ranks down and lower are ranks Citizens should be scared of more than the ones above.

01:
Alright, don't celebrate so quickly. You've gotten more calculated and more colder towards human race. After what you've seen, you'd may as well just ask yourself why you are still babysitting them. You have much respect for your superiors and no more hesitation during Amputations. Getting orders done are done without an error, and embracing yourself to have the ability to give orders to lower ranks. You are now allowed to be a hard ass at this point. [Civil Protection]

OfC: OfC's can issue an amputation to a fellow 01, and torturing to an 03 and up. You have access to Shotguns and MP7s, and have no trouble at all amputating or torturing. They are not to be taken lightly into hand to hand combat, or standard weapon combat.You have access to command squads with up to four to five characters and arresting citizens for your own reasons. (You cannot promote from here unless someone above you retires and they feel you have the ability to take that command.) [Civil Protection]

DvL: DvLs are for Divisions, and there can only be one. For example, Helix, Grid, Union, Jury, Apex, etc. They have access to any weapon, and can give out any command they want, even demotion. They love amputations and torturing, and follow every order told. Some items they can have are MP7s, Pistols, Shotguns, AR2s, and all Grenades. They have no access to RPGs or Crossbows. Life couldn't be better! [High Command]

SeC:
You run the city. You make contact with the City Administrator about issues and such, attending to problems in the CCA, and you are more than a hard ass. Everyone to you is scum. Anything is within your reach. [Universal Union]

Roll Section



Combine Roll Rules

Powergaming is never a option when it comes to RP, even as a CCA unit. Never Powergame unless both parts agree that the unit is stronger or too powerful for the citizen or other unit. It may sound unfair, but the CCA do actually get + when they roll. Here is a list over the different + rolls for each rank.

CCA :
04 - +10
03 - +20
02 - +25
01 - +30
OfC - +40
EpU - +60
DvL - +80
SeC - +90

Overwatch:
Overwatch Soilder - +75
Elite Overwatch Soilder - +85

But remember, some resistance members and vortigaunts also have roll bonuses. Although they are not as high as yours, they are all still to be considered dangerous.

In some cases like if the SeC or the EOW themselves would be having a fight with a citizen. The citizen can choose to let the SeC do the /me without having to roll.
If a citizen chooses to want to resist an action (/me) then you will have to do /me ATTEMPTS. This is a very important part. If you do success in the roll you do a /me that shows this success. Let's have an example.

Example A
(This is an example where the unit succeeds.)

CCA-02.UNION.78244 attempts to grab the citizen's arm.
CCA-02.UNION.78244 has rolled 35(+25) out of 100.
Rowan Fooley has rolled 53 out of 100.
CCA-02.UNION.78244 grabs the citizen's arm.

Example B
(This is an example where the unit fails.)

CCA-02.UNION.78244 attempts to swing his stunstick at the citizen in front of him.
CCA-02.UNION.78244 has rolled 21(+25) out of 100.
Rowan Fooley has rolled 92 out of 100.
Rowan Fooley dodges the swing of the stunstick and slips out of the grip around his arm. (Exactly, that part can be discussed between the two play.)

Note: When rolling, do in LOOC +#.
Example:
/roll
CP Unit (Rank 04) rolls a 2.
Citizen Rolls a 5.
LOOC CP Unit (Rank 04): +10
The Officer wins the roll.
_____________________

Citizen wins:
/roll
CP Unit (Rank 04) rolls a 2.
Citizen rolls a 30.
LOOC CP Unit (Rank 04): +10
Citizen wins the roll.

When a Citizen is tied, he cannot /roll Combat, onlyaway.
To try and do an action, only one /roll is needed, in the means of:
CP Unit (Rank 04) attempts to tie citizen.
LOOC: CP Unit (Rank 04): Resist?
Citizen attempts kick the officer.
/roll
CP Unit (Rank 04) rolls a 30.
Citizen rolls a 12.
CP unit restrains suspect and ties.

You do not have to /roll if both sides agree who is stronger during the situation. It is just a system based on chance and not always needed. If you resist, and break free as a citizen, the combine may still chase you down and convince you to surrender, shoot to miss is still active so, don't really try and kill the citizen or make them knocked out from blood loss. They probably will be found again and arrested but with more back-up, and they may even give in. You do not need to /roll one action more than once per confrontation. Please do not /roll during gun fights, not really because well... guns.... You sill need to /me in gunfights to initiate them. Make them long and fun, so don't rush, use cover, and shoot like your rank but you can still get shots into each-other, they are more interesting that way, neither of you want to die, so don't take a chance a person in real life in the same situation wouldn't take. Try and keep a good distance in gunfights, and surround the shooter.

Combined rolls:
If you are ganging up on someone, here is a crude example of /rolling in that situation.

Person 1 rolls a 60 out of 20.
(Person 2 & 3 are partners)
Person 2 rolls a 30 out of 20.
Person 3 rolls a 31 out of 20.
2 & 3 win the rolls.



CCA Management (Not every Expectation listed here, just some that need to be reinforced)


•You must Logoff in the Nexus (Unless really important, we understand).
•Do not store anything in the armory, either destroy it or trade it in through the contraband reward system in the armory.
•Do not violate any other expectations we have for you.
•Do not forget anyone in detainment, keep track of cycles (Unless really important, we understand).
•Do not freely give out loyalist points as previously stated, ask where the citizen got the contraband.
•Amputate free Biotics if found.
•Biotics can kill you much easier then a citizen, I would just shoot them in the street in my opinion, try and get the Biotic to feel safe so it won't attack.
•Go AFK in the Nexus.
•Do not block the Nexus doors.
•Do not go against orders.
• Check /viewobjectives normally. Update them too yourself to gain more assistance. (E.x. Someone is running, write <:[||Capture the fleeing citizen||]:>,) then remove the objectives met.
•Act like your rank.
•Limit your mistakes, pay attention to orders.
•Teach people how to RP if they need help.
•Generally 05 & 04s are the Nice CP.
•Keep manual open when playing.
•Don't void anything unless it is really needed to be voided. Mistakes are RP materials too.
•Do not question higher ranked Units.
•Enforce Judgement Waivers heavily, this is a bad situation, and dangerous. You may detain citizens ignoring it, it's a city law.
•Shoot like your rank should generally shoot, always, even at target practice.
•Do not tell citizens their criminal points.
•During sweeps, the person to initiate it (AKA Breacher) must block the entry point with their body. (Only outside, when breaching buildings, you do not have to stand outside the rooms in the building.
•As HELIX, respond to medical treatment calls. Who knows, the one who calls it could be a criminal that the UU has been looking for.
•As HELIX, try and provide services for citizens normally. Check up on them in their houses.
