Nome PD

2018, United States. Due to rising civil unrest, activation of many militia-like groups, mass shootings and overall fear of armed revolution, President of The United States Bernie Sanders renews and expands the campaign to rearm and retrain state and federal LEOs around the country.
Virtually all agencies receive a proposal: design and activate your own Special Response team in exchange for extended funding, tax breaks on department members and expanded pension.

Nome, Alaska. A small town on the coast of Bering strait, home to the somewhat famous TV show centered on modern gold rush. Local PD is staffed with 9 active patrolmen and about 10 support staff. The only reliable way to reach Anchorage is by plane from the airport in town's vicinity. Nome PD received the proposal as well. And agreed. Half of the money disappeared into people's pockets, the other? Chief figured that a pure SWAT team will be useless, and lack of investigative professionals in the department made it hard to investigate an odd disappearance or death. So he decided to put together a team that could perform both duties of Detectives and SWAT team members.
He called up his buddies, some colleges, posted ads on craiglist and gathered together a group of graduates, war veterans, specialists and whoever had some sort of skill and wasn't on the criminal record. That's you. The US is about to heat up, and the federals expect you to help them contain the situation, while the Chief wants you to help the community and not fuck up too much.
