Götterdämmerung/Conscript

"We'll defend our homeland!"

- Conscript

The Conscript is the standard infantry of the Allies. This unit is planned to be voiced by.

Tactical analysis

 * Army of millions: Armed with an old WW2 rifle and anti-tank grenades. With the massive population of Allies, they can be deployed in massive waves. Their rifle are decent against infantry and their grenades and, like many Allied forces, Conscripts gains a boost to their firepower and movement when grouped in large numbers. With a horde of them becoming nearly unstoppable.
 * Packet of nutcrackers: While only used in the event they have to face against vehicles without anti-armor support, the anti-tank sticky grenades the Conscripts have can damage vehicles, and in large enough numbers can even destroy tanks.
 * CHARGE: Before and during battle many Conscripts are known to let out a battlecry to steel their spirits and embolden their surrounding brothers/sisters in arms. Though the effect is small they stack, with any Conscripts nearby letting out a battlecry when they hear one say it.
 * Rats to the eagles: Seeing as how Conscripts don't even get a fresh pair of socks to wear, just imagine what modern weaponry must do to them. In practice, they are small enough to avoid serious damage from anti-vehicle weapons, but cannot withstand much small-arms fire. And while they can, in large enough numbers, damage tanks their inability ot attack aircraft means that an airforce can easily rip them apart, no matter how many there are.

Background
"That horrid smell, the screams, the deafening sound of gunfire, and the unbearable pain when that gyrojet round blew off my leg. No matter what I do, I always remember that horrible battle whenever I close my eyes or feel that empty pain from my lost leg. I, like many of my friends in those detestable camps, thought that we were ready for battle, that we would easily destroy the Axis and return home as heroes. But what future is there for a cripple who only knows how to kill..."

-A psychologist interview of an elderly, retired, Conscript. The man hanged himself a few months later.

When the Axis began their counterassault with their new superweapons the Allies threw everything they had in order to stop them, and during the horrible first few years of the war the Allies had found a resoure more valuable then gold and guns, manpower.

Despite all of their efforts their soldiers, whether a new recruit or veteran, the criminal or the rich, fell to the Axis like grass to a lawnmower, their only saving grace to the Axis is that their soldiers had outnumbered the Axis five to one. And as the war dragged the need for more soldiers, and abled-bodied men, dwindled. The Allies needed a large number of people, and quickly. To that end, around a year since the Axis counterattacked, many of the Allies, with heavy hearts, unanimously agreed with operation Bakers Dozen.

With this law declared all thirteen-year-old men and women were sent into "breeding camps" where they were ordered to make children, combined this with new drugs made from the magic they found meant that it was normal for a women to birth an average of twenty children with little complications and men to impregnate said women in rapid succession, though it had came with a side effect of having 75% of them becoming infertile at the age of sixteen, these infertile become either the staff or soldiers. A quarter of lucky "camp kids" would grow up in a "normal" life and education, another quarter becomes the new breeders while the other half will be trained into soldiers, and a quarter of those may be trained as officers depending on mental abilities.

Taking their name from the Soviet Union soldiers. The Conscripts start their training at the age of six, where the only education was loud and bombastic propaganda coming from all speakers while the young men and women were drilled for combat. Becoming nothing more then simply weapons of the Allies, despite many of the higher-up's disgust in such practice. In a few short years, these Conscripts were ready for combat at the age of thirteen, and received it in the most horrible way.

They were sent in waves against the Axis, whether charging on the field or shooting behind a trench, with horrendous casualties, and the Allies advanced medical care can only go so far. Reinforcements, however, were constantly arriving, as it only took the mass conscription of another breeding camp youth (and as the war escalated the entire camp sans the breeders) and "camp kids" to provide the next wave. Few, if any Conscripts ever saw their homes again, and the only reason they weren't completely wiped out is that Liberty tank waves (manned by another branch of Conscripts) were just as often thrown against Axis.

Despite their relative success in clawing out a stalemate against the Axis there is one horror that heavily looms over the Allies. What will happen to them once they won?

From birth these Conscript only knew how to fight against a large foe. While at the same time they witness horrors that no children should see, from suffering crippling injuries, losing friends and loved ones, to just witnessing the sheer brutality and sadism their fellow men can do. With many knowing that they will likely never live the future they fought for or even see their home, the letters they write being their last memory, and those that somehow survive their first battle are irreparable changed, with many going mad, quiet, or even suicidal. And with thousands of them in the war the Allies know that overpopulation will likely become a massive problem. Though the Allies set up countless hospitals to help these men and women find life outside of war, the fact that there are millions of them compared to the thoughs of help they can give is an ongoing problem.

And yet the Allies continue, as the alternative was letting the Axis win, in sorrow and hope that their sacrifice, and horrid crimes, wasn't in vain, praying to whatever higher power up there for forgiveness.
