[GUIDE] The SRU - Safira - 01-25-2015 The SRU Guide
Compiled by Safira
Let's make one thing absolutely clear. Strategic Response Unit Now that that's out of the way, we can begin. What is the SRU?
The SRU, as you should now have drilled into your minds, is the Strategic Response Unit. They are those to call for in a high risk situation, where the standard training of the police force just isn't enough. Equipped with the highest standard of body armour and most powerful rifles, rebels and raiders have little chance of avoiding injury when the SRU are present.
Their background and training has led them into this field. Many of them have come from the army, and as a result use military tactics to combat their assignments.
Think of the SRU much as S.W.A.T (Do not confuse them, however). Would you see a whole unit of them doing what you're about to do? If not, then it isn't the job of the SRU.
What is it not ? Many people misunderstand what the job of the SRU is. Here are some examples of what the SRU should not be doing.
Location
As stated before, the SRU are not secretaries, there to make appointments with the president. Most units would agree that is a waste of training.
Therefore, the SRU should ideally stay in their offices until called, dealing with paperwork, practicing shooting and defending, or something similar.
On 33x and v2p, the whole of the 2nd floor would be used by the SRU:

Whilst on v2d, there are 2 offices on the top floor which could be used:

However, it's up to you. Use your imagination!
Ranks
There are 2 primary ranks of the SRU.
SRU Sergeant
The SRU Sergeant (or 'Sarg', for short) commands the whole SRU force. They hold the most authority, and in extreme cases control the police unit, too.
They have the duty of keeping on top of where their units are, and to demote any who step out of line.
SRU 'Unit'
The units are under the Sergeant's authority. In order to successfully complete missions, they must use their initiative, tactics, and teamwork. Many sergeants assign particular titles to each of their units. These range from a variety of options, but to name a few:
Missions/Objectives
I have already explained the role of the SRU, however what does this actually include?
Ranks (expanded) If they choose to, the sergeant may give secondary ranks to their units.
Tactics The SRU's training means that they have various strategies and tactics for all situations. A common one is the one below- The 3 units are given a role:
Other basic strategies include:
Gandhi's 'Schwerpunkt' Aim: Overwhelm a weak point, exploit enemy's confusion via a rapid advance Schwerpunkt: main focus, focal point, center of gravity This technique would typically used with tanks, armored vehicles, and heavy artillery. However, it can also be simply adapted into the 4 SRU (and police force).
Roleplaying Just because you get a free M4 and UMP, you do not get the right to fire at anything with two legs. As always, go for the PassiveRP approach as opposed to AgressiveRP. Remember: Killing should always be the last resort. As a unit, you should never go out alone. All strategies and tactics require detailed planning and coordination in order to succeed. Make sure you know what everyone's doing! You are after all, a team. Roleplay some training exercises, to get the unit in sync with each other. Eventually, it'll become instinct and offence/defence will become far easier. So what else can you do?
