A big thank you goes out to Spectre for making this awsome group for me. The concept was simple, wanted modern looking updates to the original Oktober Guard. All are customs except Brekov, as I had not really decided on having him part of the group, he was a last minute LBC I came up with. After getting the final figures, I decided to do some simple dosiers for them.
Colonel Brekhov Ivan Nikolevich Brekhov MOS: commanding officer smos: Intelligence Colonel Brekhov served for years in the Soviet army with the Ground Forces. He cut his teeth in the Afghanistan conflict in the early 80's as a young lieutenant. He earned the respect of the troops under his command by always leading from the front and not treating them as cannon fodder. This caught the attention of his superiors who frowned upon him for this view but the results he got in battle could not be denied. After the war, he continued his education at the Moscow Military Commanders Training School to get further training in strategy, tactics, and command skills. With the completion of this schooling he was promoted to the rank of Colonel. Many thought this would lead to a position in the Kremlin but he had other ideas. After the fall of the Soviet Union and seeing a per chant for corruption within the new Russian army, Brekhov briefly retired. As he traveled to parts of Europe, he witnessed first hand a G. I. Joe team in action, taking down a terrorist cell. He asked permission to speak to the field commander of the team (Duke). They immediately hit it off and Brekhov accepted an invite to see how the operation works. This bore a new fire in Brekhov and after his return to the motherland, asked to return to active duty with the intention of creating a unit similar to the GI Joe team. This again was frowned upon by his superiors but after a terrorist attack on a Russian oil pipeline, it was green lighted. They would act as a joint operations unit with the GI Joe team, acting as the Eastern European area's unit, mainly since many of the nations in area did not care to have Americans interfering. The Oktober Guard as they became known does not have the great numbers as the Americans, but the team he picked is hard nosed and gets the job done. Lt. Vorona Diana L. Janack Prague, Czechoslovakia MOS: Sniper smos: Rotary Wing Pilot Hot temper is an understatement when describing Vorona. Maybe its the fact she is the only female in an all male unit or the need to continually having to prove she is an equal but Diana run's hot all the time. Col. Brekhov chose her as the team leader when he is not in the field to help temper her anger. She took the assignment reluctantly but has proven a wise choice. Her determination has proven an invaluable asset on more then one mission. She has gained the respect of her group, especially Big Bear and Horrorshow, who have come to her defense when other units give her a hard time for being a female, not that she ever needed it. Other then being the teams field leader, she is the resident marksman and rotary wing pilot. Sgt. Stormavik Classified Moscow, Russia MOS: Airborne operations smos: Infantry Stormavik is a member of the VDV( Russian Airborne Forces). He is a tough as nails soldier and fighter. He served with Col. Brekhov before being offered a position with the Oktober Guard. He is loyal to him and was honored to be selected by him. He had a tough time accepting orders from team leader Vorona but has learned that she is as tough as the Colonel. Has a good working relationship with GI Joe team member Beachhead, just wishes he had better hygiene. Sgt. Scharge Classified Classified MOS: intelligence/counter intelligence smos: Tactical advisor Scharge is an enigma. No one knows his past or his birthplace. Some guess he was born in East Germany before the wall fell, others think he is from Moscow. He is quiet and keeps to himself. Scharge mind is as sharp as a razor. He serves as the teams primary intelligence gatherer and counter intelligence agent. He is the guy who will go undercover before the main team goes in. After the team goes in and if things go wrong, he is the first to find them an out. No one questions his past, but he is believed to have served in the Russian Army due to his rank as a Sgt. and received special operations training with the FSB (formally the KGB). Sgt. Horrorshow Stepan Drukersky Tbilisi, Georgia MOS: Anti-Tank weapons smos: Heavy weapons Horrorshow grew up in a theater family but never wanted that life for himself. When he was old enough he enlisted in the Russian army. He prefers leaving the planning and intelligence part of war to the ones in charge. When given a task or order, he follows it through with the will and determination of a fleet of tanks. This sometimes gives his enemies the impression he is a mindless, muscle bound brute and that's the way he likes it. They underestimate him which makes him even more dangerous. His best friend on the team is Big Bear and shares a friendly rivalry with Gung ho and Leatherneck. Has a per chant of using the older RPG 7 even though there are more modern updates. Sgt. Big Bear Grigori Ivanovich Rostoff Archangel, Russia MOS: Machine Gunner smos: Mountaineer BIG BEAR grew up in a place where the conditions are cold, wet, and nasty - everyday! Growing up in such miserable conditions has made him a very mean and rough individual and hard to get along with. His best friend Horrorshow has mean streak just as wide but they enjoy each others company. They both serve a healthy rivalry with the Joe teams resident Marine's, Leatherneck and Gung Ho. Grigori serves as the teams machine gun support and repelling expert. Sgt. Misha Misha L. Zubenkov Smolensk, Russia MOS: Infantry smos: Recon Misha is the Oktober Guard's Spetsnaz Trooper. His family expected him to follow in their footsteps in the glass industry, he had other ideas. He joined the Russian Army and worked his way up to get Spetsnaz training. His tough as nails and determination got the attention of Col. Brekhov and recruited him on the spot. Was also instrumental in bringing in his former squad mate, Yuri. Dragonsky Andrei Freisov Moscow, Russia MOS: Mechanic smos: EOD Andrei is the Oktober Guards resident mechanic. If it has an engine and wheels/tracks, he can drive and fix it. He is the second oldest after Col. Brekhov. He tends to be the level head to counter the younger members of the group and is the first person team leader Vorona asks for advise. Included to his mechanic duties he also is the teams EOD expert. SSgt. Nikolai Classified Classified MOS: Fixed Wing/Rotary Pilot smos: Communications/Data Recovery Nikolai served with the ground forces in Afghanistan under Lt. Brekhov. He was a career soldier and retired. During his time that he retired, he went to work for a private British PMC firm where he recieved his training with fixed wing and rotary wing as well as data recovery. While his time in the United Kingdom, he made friends with several SAS operators. After a terrorist group attacked an oil pipeline while his family was on vacation on the Black Sea, he decided to continue his service to the Military. After he found out Col. Brekhov was commanding a new anti-terrorist/special response team, he asked to join and was accepted. He mainly serves the group as the heavy air transport pilot and communications operator. Yuri Classified Classified MOS: Special Operations smos: Infantry Yuri is an ex-Spetsnaz who served in the same unit as Misha. After the fall of the Soviet Union, he retired from service after being disgusted with the rampant corruption within the military. After the terrorist attack and resulting building of the Oktober Guard, Misha recommended Yuri to Col. Brekhov. Yuri first turned down the offer. He felt being in a special unit would bring the lure of corruption but after seeing how the group worked and the way Col. Brekhov put the mission and his men first, he accepted. He, like Scharge, is a loner and prefers to keep to himself. He is soft spoken and enjoys meditation to calm his mind to the chaos around him. Last edited by ibjc1106; 08-29-2013 at 11:51 PM.. |
