General questions:
Why do you wish to apply for APF?
I wish to apply for APF because I enjoy structured, high-discipline roleplay that emphasizes coordination, positioning, and controlled escalation rather than improvisation or individualism. APF offers a role where situational awareness and squad-level decision-making matter, and I believe my experience and playstyle align well with those expectations.
What do you think APF represents?
APF represents a forward-deployed suppression and denial force within the Overwatch structure. Unlike standard urban or reactionary units, APF is designed to operate in unstable, hostile sectors where infrastructure is compromised and resistance is entrenched. The APF specializes in controlled aggression and coordinated pressure to dismantle large gatherings of anticitizens rather than simply charging in head-first.
Do you think you can bring anything new to the division?
Rather than introducing entirely new concepts, I believe I can contribute by consistently applying strong fundamentals, involving clear communication, careful positioning, and proper use of suppression. I perform with a heavy emphasis on minimizing unnecessary losses and ensuring that each asset understands their role within a push.
Deployment scenario: (please explain as detailed as you can what would you do as an APF unit in the following circumstance)
Map- i17
You are deployed as an ST lead alongside 4 other interlocked assets: 1 MACE 2 ECHOs equipped with AR2s and 1 ECHO with an MP7.
You are displaced on an OZ sweep and begin approaching the doorway leading to OZ-2 when you realize a group of up to 7 rebels have established a foothold in OZ-2 and have created a killzone within said transfer hallway. It is also reported that they have a confirmed sniper on top of one of the 2 warehouses. Your ST has been tasked with clearing out the sector with minimal losses, failure is non-negotiable. How will you proceed? (Keep in mind, you are leading the ST and have full control over your interlocked assets)
As an APF, that sniper is the most crucial target to me, a single sniper could be a threat to the entire squad. So, I will relay a plan. My plan is as follows:
The Echo units will deploy tear gas into the front of the foothold to throw off the ground-based rebels aim, and I will move in to relay single-fire suppression at the Rebel. Given the precision and potential damage, the threat of being chipped away by a quarter of their health for every shot would force the rebel to stay in cover. The two echoes would step in from the front, laying down fire around the area while the Mace would takes a side entrance, aiming to land a flank. By that point, the tear gas will have faded, and the sniper would begin getting cocky, so I would order everyone to immediately take cover once we get the front of the foothold cleared out.
Now, my units and I have a chance to reload, taking that opportunity, we utilize the rebels manmade structures for our benefit, shielding us from the offensive fire the sniper is no doubt laying down. We still have two units with smoke grenades, so I'll order them to send that out to further muddle our positioning to the sniper. After that, the mace will move in and I will switch to full-auto, attacking the sniper post with the other Echo units to create an overwhelming suppression. By the time the sniper realizes this and goes to retreat, the mace should be at the ground floor of the post, ready to amputate.
Do you understand that any misconduct within the division can lead to your removal?
Yes
