Chancellor Announces New Senatorial Races! 3 Seats!
OPEN TO ALL SPENCORIANS
As of June 7, 2016, our Chancellor Dumonius has announced the beginning of new Senatorial races for the position of Senator of the GsR! These individuals would be tasked with fulfilling the role of Senator as described below:
~~Senator~~
Senators act as the driving force behind the Grand Spencorian Republic. Every six months, three senators are elected. These senators act as direct representatives of the common populace. Senators meet often with the Chancellor and have the ability to issue forth bills in the Senate to be voted upon by the Senate as a whole. The Senate is encouraged to have ideas to present to the Senate that improve the Republic. The Chancellor has the ability to veto or pass any and all bills if they are deemed either unnecessary or -more positively- so necessary that voting would only delay the pursuit of progress.
Voting for the Senators will take place on June 17, 2016. Until that time, any citizen of the Empire is free to run for the office of Senator. Anyone wishing to be a member of the Senate may run a campaign starting today. Posts here on the forum, frequent posts on the skype group, and other forms of campaign communication are allowed and encouraged.

Hello Spencoria!
I, Lord_Boreal, am running for one of three seats in the first Senate of the Grand Spencorian Republic. I have been with the clan for a very long time. Back when Spencer himself was running the show I was a close and trusted adviser. I have made many contributions to the political infrastructure this new Republic is founded upon and a look forward to continuing to build the best in-game government in all of Minecraftia. Combine that with my expansive knowledge of minecraft game mechanics, building, and redstone make me a more than capable and competent candidate for the Spencorian Senate.
Every citizen who votes for me on election day can feel secure in knowing they voted for an efficient and well run clan government. Thank you for your time and I'll see you (and my competition) at the polls.

White coats to bind me, out of control
I live alone inside my mind
World of confusion, air filled with noise
Who says that my life's such a crime?
Trapped in this nightmare
I wish I'd wake
As my whole life begins to shake
four walls surround me
an empty gaze
I can't find my way out of this maze
'Cause I don't care
Fall in, fall out
Gone without a doubt, help me
I can't take the blame
They don't feel the shame
It's a madhouse
Or so they claim
It's a madhouse
Oh, am I insane?
My fears behind me, what can I do
My dreams haunt my sleep at night
Oh no, won't learn their lesson, white fills my eyes
And only then they see the light

The mission of the Grand Spencorian Marine Corps is the defense of our nation and keepers of the peace with other nations.
The GSMC is a company sized unit consisting of four platoons; Infantry, Artillery, Construction, and Recon. The job you do depends on what platoon you choose; unless there is a shortage, then you may be called upon to perform other jobs. Every Marine is a rifleman; however you do not necessarily need to be the best at combat to join, we need construction workers and recon men just as much as we need infantrymen and artillery crews.
1st Platoon, Infantry
1st Platoon is the main fighting force of the GSMC, they use anything and everything at their disposal to win a battle, whether it’s weapons or tactics. Their main mission is the defence of the Republic.
2nd Platoon, Artillery
2nd Platoon is responsible for supporting infantry units during combat operations with heavy artillery and bow fire and destroying heavy fortifications using TNT cannons.
3rd Platoon, Construction
The Construction Platoon is responsible for building fortifications, bases, farms, and XP farms. It is also responsible for crafting tools, weapons, and armor, as well as enchanting these items. The engineers are responsible for designing many things including but not limited to; cannons, farms, and fortifications.
4th Platoon, Recon
4th Platoon is responsible for scouting land for the other platoons, this could be finding places to build bases, or finding enemy bases. They are also responsible for the amphibious or non-amphibious exploration of new territory, gathering resources from new lands or domestic lands, and building colonies.
Chain of Command (CoC)
The chain of command is just that, a chain of commanders who oversee everyone under them in the chain. More information:
If somebody were to have a question or an issue with someone in their unit they would need to report it to their chain of command, which starts with their Section Leader who is a Sergeant.
Next is your Platoon Sergeant who would be a Staff Sergeant typically.
Next is the Company Gunnery Sergeant, he oversees the training and welfare of all enlisted Marines. While it’s usually bad practice to jump the chain of command, the Gunny usually likes to keep an open door policy for his Marines.
Here is a list of ranks and what they normally command under ideal conditions;
Corporal or a Lance Corporal leads a fireteam and is the second in command of a section.
Sergeant leads a section
Staff Sergeant is a Platoon Sergeant and is the second in command of the platoon.
Gunnery Sergeant is the senior enlisted adviser for the company commander and his executive officer.
Officer Cadet technically doesn’t command anything, but he may be put in command of a team of Marines by the CO for training.
2nd Lieutenant or 1st Lieutenant is in command of a platoon or is the company XO.
Captain is the company commander.
Unit structure: Fireteam<Section<Platoon<Company<GSMC
Ideally there are four platoons of 16 Marines in the company.
So there are two sections of 8 Marines in each platoon.
And two fireteams of 4 Marines in each section.

Officer Cadet School
To be an Officer Cadet you fill out the application like you normally would, except you specify that you want to be an OC and the application needs to be high quality, and past military experience helps alot, real life or minecraft. As an OC you will be criticized by your drill instructors and the Captain to turn you into a professional officer, however only your DI's, and senior officers can train you and give you orders, and you can't give anybody orders unless specified by your DI or the Captain. The class lasts for one month, after that time is done, depending on how well you did, you will either; graduate and be promoted to 2nd Lieutenant where you can be in charge of a platoon and give orders, or you can be enlisted. If you do not get “promoted” to Officer Cadet First Class, do not expect to be commissioned as a 2ndLt.
What you will do first
First you will be contacted by an NCO or an officer and given the IP addresses we use, as well as other useful tools. Then you will be given your uniforms and information regarding training, and then you will go through boot camp if possible and/or receive orders.
War-games
Sometimes we will have friendly competitions; either with ourselves or with other clans who want to. We call these war-games, it’s like a team death-match, we get all set up, and then we have a battle. It could be with ships we build, or on land, or a combination of the two. We do this to hone our skills and to keep things fun and exciting.
Rules and Regulations for the military
-You must have the Discord VoIP software, and Skype, a mic headset is recommended, but not required. You will be expected to use Discord and listen. We use Discord for voice communication, without it things would be a mess because we would have to type everything out. We use Skype for announcements and for other chatter. The download pages for each program are below.
-You must be 14 years of age or older, exceptions may be made if you can prove you are mature enough to be in a military role-play clan.
-Respect all members of the Republic and of other nations, follow all lawful orders.
-Do not start any wars, if someone is disrespecting you, another member, or the Republic do not reply; report it to an NCO, or a Commissioned Officer. If you are attacked, fight back, and report it to an NCO, or a Commissioned Officer.
-You must try to keep your activity up; if you are going to be gone for a few days inform an NCO or a Commissioned Officer.
-Put Creeping Death in your application to show you have read the rules, and the rest of the thread.
-NCOs and Commissioned Officers will not abuse their ranks.
-Under no circumstances will there be any multiclanning.
-Follow the deployment server rules
-Respect your fellow clan mates
-This is not the real military and we do not claim to be actual Marines, this is just for role-play fun.
Uniforms
All personnel will wear the Combat Uniform they are given.
All personnel will wear the parade uniform for drills and special trainings and the dress blues for special events.
Application Form for the GSMC
Please note that this is a clan that tries to be as professional as possible while still having fun with it, we are looking for people who are mature, can follow orders, who are competent and can think for themselves. The GSMC is a commitment (in your free time, make sure you can spare some time, at least one hour per day), we aren’t a clan you just join on a whim; think about it first, we look for dedicated and loyal members.

White coats to bind me, out of control
I live alone inside my mind
World of confusion, air filled with noise
Who says that my life's such a crime?
Trapped in this nightmare
I wish I'd wake
As my whole life begins to shake
four walls surround me
an empty gaze
I can't find my way out of this maze
'Cause I don't care
Fall in, fall out
Gone without a doubt, help me
I can't take the blame
They don't feel the shame
It's a madhouse
Or so they claim
It's a madhouse
Oh, am I insane?
My fears behind me, what can I do
My dreams haunt my sleep at night
Oh no, won't learn their lesson, white fills my eyes
And only then they see the light

10. Why did you choose the Grand Spencorian Republic?
As of June 7, 2016, our Chancellor Dumonius has announced the beginning of new Senatorial races for the position of Senator of the GsR! These individuals would be tasked with fulfilling the role of Senator as described below:
~~Senator~~
Senators act as the driving force behind the Grand Spencorian Republic. Every six months, three senators are elected. These senators act as direct representatives of the common populace. Senators meet often with the Chancellor and have the ability to issue forth bills in the Senate to be voted upon by the Senate as a whole. The Senate is encouraged to have ideas to present to the Senate that improve the Republic. The Chancellor has the ability to veto or pass any and all bills if they are deemed either unnecessary or -more positively- so necessary that voting would only delay the pursuit of progress.
Voting for the Senators will take place on June 17, 2016. Until that time, any citizen of the Empire is free to run for the office of Senator. Anyone wishing to be a member of the Senate may run a campaign starting today. Posts here on the forum, frequent posts on the skype group, and other forms of campaign communication are allowed and encouraged.
Thank you all and, as always...
ALL HAIL THE REPUBLIC!
Hello Spencoria!
I, Lord_Boreal, am running for one of three seats in the first Senate of the Grand Spencorian Republic. I have been with the clan for a very long time. Back when Spencer himself was running the show I was a close and trusted adviser. I have made many contributions to the political infrastructure this new Republic is founded upon and a look forward to continuing to build the best in-game government in all of Minecraftia. Combine that with my expansive knowledge of minecraft game mechanics, building, and redstone make me a more than capable and competent candidate for the Spencorian Senate.
Every citizen who votes for me on election day can feel secure in knowing they voted for an efficient and well run clan government. Thank you for your time and I'll see you (and my competition) at the polls.

The GSMC is a company sized unit consisting of four platoons; Infantry, Artillery, Construction, and Recon. The job you do depends on what platoon you choose; unless there is a shortage, then you may be called upon to perform other jobs. Every Marine is a rifleman; however you do not necessarily need to be the best at combat to join, we need construction workers and recon men just as much as we need infantrymen and artillery crews.
1st Platoon, Infantry
1st Platoon is the main fighting force of the GSMC, they use anything and everything at their disposal to win a battle, whether it’s weapons or tactics. Their main mission is the defence of the Republic.
2nd Platoon, Artillery
2nd Platoon is responsible for supporting infantry units during combat operations with heavy artillery and bow fire and destroying heavy fortifications using TNT cannons.
3rd Platoon, Construction
The Construction Platoon is responsible for building fortifications, bases, farms, and XP farms. It is also responsible for crafting tools, weapons, and armor, as well as enchanting these items. The engineers are responsible for designing many things including but not limited to; cannons, farms, and fortifications.
4th Platoon, Recon
4th Platoon is responsible for scouting land for the other platoons, this could be finding places to build bases, or finding enemy bases. They are also responsible for the amphibious or non-amphibious exploration of new territory, gathering resources from new lands or domestic lands, and building colonies.
Chain of Command (CoC)
The chain of command is just that, a chain of commanders who oversee everyone under them in the chain. More information:
If somebody were to have a question or an issue with someone in their unit they would need to report it to their chain of command, which starts with their Section Leader who is a Sergeant.
Next is your Platoon Sergeant who would be a Staff Sergeant typically.
Next is the Company Gunnery Sergeant, he oversees the training and welfare of all enlisted Marines. While it’s usually bad practice to jump the chain of command, the Gunny usually likes to keep an open door policy for his Marines.
Here is a list of ranks and what they normally command under ideal conditions;
Corporal or a Lance Corporal leads a fireteam and is the second in command of a section.
Sergeant leads a section
Staff Sergeant is a Platoon Sergeant and is the second in command of the platoon.
Gunnery Sergeant is the senior enlisted adviser for the company commander and his executive officer.
Officer Cadet technically doesn’t command anything, but he may be put in command of a team of Marines by the CO for training.
2nd Lieutenant or 1st Lieutenant is in command of a platoon or is the company XO.
Captain is the company commander.
Unit structure: Fireteam<Section<Platoon<Company<GSMC
Ideally there are four platoons of 16 Marines in the company.
So there are two sections of 8 Marines in each platoon.
And two fireteams of 4 Marines in each section.

Officer Cadet School
To be an Officer Cadet you fill out the application like you normally would, except you specify that you want to be an OC and the application needs to be high quality, and past military experience helps alot, real life or minecraft. As an OC you will be criticized by your drill instructors and the Captain to turn you into a professional officer, however only your DI's, and senior officers can train you and give you orders, and you can't give anybody orders unless specified by your DI or the Captain. The class lasts for one month, after that time is done, depending on how well you did, you will either; graduate and be promoted to 2nd Lieutenant where you can be in charge of a platoon and give orders, or you can be enlisted. If you do not get “promoted” to Officer Cadet First Class, do not expect to be commissioned as a 2ndLt.
What you will do first
First you will be contacted by an NCO or an officer and given the IP addresses we use, as well as other useful tools. Then you will be given your uniforms and information regarding training, and then you will go through boot camp if possible and/or receive orders.
War-games
Sometimes we will have friendly competitions; either with ourselves or with other clans who want to. We call these war-games, it’s like a team death-match, we get all set up, and then we have a battle. It could be with ships we build, or on land, or a combination of the two. We do this to hone our skills and to keep things fun and exciting.
Rules and Regulations for the military
-You must have the Discord VoIP software, and Skype, a mic headset is recommended, but not required. You will be expected to use Discord and listen.
