WORLD & RULES

This world is similar our own. it is set during the enlightenment period 1750s in the new world. at this time there was a class system you had to learn to be a gentleman to advance in society. supernatural events happen where God may intervene and aid the hero, an angel or even Jesus may make an appearance during the story, forces of darkness are aiding the French, be them demons or monsters. the rules of ranging: All Rangers are subject to the rules and articles of war, yet as Irregulars they rarely obey them; The guidelines prioritize absolute operational security and situational awareness by mandating constant equipment readiness, strict evening roll calls, and the continuous use of front, rear, and flank scouts to prevent ambushes. To minimize the unit's physical signature, the rules dictate marching in spaced single files, spreading abreast over soft ground to conceal tracks, avoiding public roads or river crossings, and traveling secretly by water at night. In combat, they emphasize utilizing natural cover, alternating firing lines, holding fire until the enemy is at close range, and maintaining pre-designated rally points to regroup if a force is scattered. Ultimately blending Native American stealth with discipline, these rules established a highly mobile, self-sustaining doctrine that dictates everything from taking prisoners and splitting them up so they cant plan a escape. Maintaining pre-dawn wakefulness.
