British National Army. Foundational Act. version 1.0. 201209

The British National Army aims to improve the military might of
eUK. It is a complement over the existing Military Units and it's not
a Military Unit (MU).

It will comprise the active force of eUK, about 300-400 players. It is
open to anyone, just be an eUK citizen.

The principles of this army are these:

- Ability to harm, deter or hamper enemy. Codenamed P1.
- Comradeship, brotherhood, fellowship. Codenamed P2.
- A strict chain of command. P3
- Respect and honor among its members. P4.
- A strong sense of efficency and efficacy. P5.
- Loyalty to the nation and its current government. P6.
- Open to any citizen and politically neutral. P7.
- Respect for Real Life constraints. P8

These eight elements are the base of our BNA.
We will accomplish these principles by these Actions.

- Drills. A1
- Orders. A2
- Hierarchy, logistics, and structure. A3.
- Strategy, tactic and technical information. A4.
- Army career and reward. A5.
- Refinement of the procedures . A6.
- Publicity. A7.

Let's elaborate on each Action.

- A1. Drills.
This is the basic action of BNA. We shall perform drills without
hesitation and questions. Drills are just set of orders to be
accomplished in a period of time, tipically one or two days.

Drills try to harden P3 ( a strict chain of command), P5 (efficacy
and efficiency) and P2 (brotherhood).

Following principle P8 ( real life constraints) drills will contain an
alternative set of orders. A typical drill will be comprised of 6 - 7
orders, missions, the soldier should achieve just 3 -4 of them. This
range of order will spread along the day to ensure the soldier has
time to do it. Drills are checked and overlooked by Sargeants, the
lowest official and the one in charge of "technical (low level)
military".

After a dozen of drills soldiers will get used to follow orders and
Sargeants will know how to give them.

Once we get accostumed to them, we will behave as an army and when the
occasion arises we will be ready "for real job".

The outcome of the drills shall be checked by the officials.

Any drill will be composed of a set of "alternate" orders so the
soldier may accomplish some of them ( because of real life time
constraints), if not all of them.

We will take care of not interfering real life habits. This is a game,
it can be improved but it's a game after all.

- A2. Orders.

Whether belonging to a (training) drill as well as being orders in
important wars, orders will be always essentially the same, and
conducted in the very same manner.

There're these types of orders:

-- A2o1. Fight, deliver Damage in a determined division, battle,
campaign. Eg. (Deliver Damage, 10k, div2, battle 2, Dublin).

-- A2o2. Gather battle information. The gathered information will be
classified, analysed and studied for further actions in both
intelligence and direct action.

-- A2o3. Guards. Officials and soldiers will watch and raise alarms, about losing battles or new battles.

-- A2o4. others

- A3: Strategic, tactic and technical information.

-- A3S1 . Technical information comprises the raw fighting mechanics,
the current status of a determined battle or campaign, the number,
quality and nationality of the fighters, ...

-- A3S2. Tactic information.
Tactic information is about combining serveral technical information
into a high order information unit. Examples of tactical information:
* Player A has delivered 500k in damage in div2 and he's close to
win a BH.
* Players of a MU are delivering damage in divs 1,2,3 and 4 of
battle X.

-- A3S3. Strategic information.
Examples:

* Are we capable of winning a campaign? How much damage can we
warrant to deliver ?
* Are we able to coordinate with other units and win? How much is the
combined damage?
* What's the likely damage coming from allies ? have they important
campaigns ?

We'll move slowly towards these kind of orders.


A4. Career and reward.
Each completed drill will be rewared with 3 points (army points) and
each day official will get 5 points if the units they manage do their
goals. This army points can be used for promotions and scaling up in
the army ranks.

Each drill completed by the soldier will be paid with 10 GBP.

A5. Refinements, evaluation of the process.
All these points, drills and orders will be reviewed by the army in
assembly, in order to become more and more efficient. Any member of the army will be as many votes as points. So older and official members will count more.

A6. Way of communications.
Orders and drills will be private messaged, and results of the BNA
operations will be published in this newspaper.

A7. Every movement of budget, drill and order will be registered and
logged in order to analize it and book it. Each movement will have a
sequential code.
