[Evil Marahadja]

Its been three years since the disastrous war against  the unholy alliance between Kolechia and Antegria. We lost all of our coastal provinces and the army is in ruins. After the fragile peace, honourable freedom-fighters rose in Rebuplica to free us from the oppressive monarchy that has plagued our nation for so long. One year ago, after intensive fighting, the rebels finally managed to take the capital and proclaim a new free Republica!


But you are obviously aware of this fact, since you was one of the co-conspirators in the rebel army. As a reward for you loyalty, you have been appointed the Minister of Espionage and Internal security. You will be in charge of both Espionage and contra-espionage, you will also be in charge of finding any contra-revolutionaries and eradicate them. In the beginning, your budget will be small, but prove yourself an effective tool for the Republican government, and you will be allocated more resources. Good luck.



Today is the first day of your new job, in a few day the new department will be announced to the public. You will have to pick the name of your new organization. You will also have to start hiring agents to your cause, sending them out on missions, and coordinating the espionage-efforts of the country. It might also be worthwhile to have some long-term plans. Will the department end up as a lapdog to  the government, or will you rule Republicia behind the scenes? The other ministers will use their mandate to further their ambitions...why shouldn't you..?

Republicia
Government: Revolutionary Dictatorship, the government has a good support among the locas. However, those who disagree with the government methods, especially the royalist and democracy-seekers, tend to be quite organized. They are a destabilizing factor in the country.
Economy: Bad. A lot of infrastructure is still destroyed from the many wars Reblicia has endured. Combined with the rebels hiding and sabotaging the countryside and Reblicia has a tough future. Although the countries industries seems to be recovering in the three larger cities.
Military: The military has a good backbone of experienced officers and generals from the wars. It also has a lot of skilled infantry. But the motorized divisions is horribly underequipped. There is no air-force or armoured units worth mentioning. 

You have access to forged Republican passports.
Low-governmental clearance. (You can plant spies as secretaries and low-lever bureaucrats. )
Lowest military clearance. (You can plant spies as privates)
 
Antegria

Government: Dictatorship
Economy: Decent. (Small Surplus, exports a lot of wares)
Military: Good ? ( Known to be welltrained)
Has its own spy program.
Speaks the same language as we do.

Kolechia

Government: Socialist Dictatorship.

Military:
Speaks the same language as we do.

So, this is a game inspired by Papers please and weapons design games. But instead of weapons you have control of an the department of espionage instead. You will have to try to balance the need of cooperation and your ambitions to get even more power within the government. The technology is 1960s in a backwards socialist country.

Name: The Republian Ministry of Silence.
Start hiring all 5 ASAP.  Look for true loyalists for now.  No point in having our first agents be traitors.
Send two agents each to Kolechia and Antegria and one to the ministry of finance to root out corruption.

[Aseaheru]

+1, except name.

Republica Department of Affairs (RDoA) is, I think, a better name.

Republia office of internal peace

Also I agree, we should begin hiring this 5 agents.

[a1s]

I find the classics are best: The ministry of Love ("MiniLuv")

As for hiring 5 agents, let's see what sort of talent we get to work with first- we need to run background checks on everyone we hire. People who are too clean are hard to control- either they are boy scouts both unsuited for covert ops and lacking leverage to pressure them when a hard choice comes, or else they are undercover agents with freshly baked papers.

(Your staff will do their best to find suiting candidates, you can also be more specific IE; Someone with fighting skill, Former detectives, Language masters etc. The more specific you are, the harder it will be to find a candidate though.

((So in theory, for shits and giggles, we could have them search for people with a fetish for the concept of the color purple but a absolute distaste of the aformented color?))

(Of course, but if your staff would find such a person is another question.)

In that case, lets recruit people with fluent knowledge of atleast one other language and basic knowledge of how codes work

[a1s]

We need 1 each of people who speak fluent Kolechian and Antegrian (we're talking accent, idioms, cultural references, etc. not the basic understanding that comes from speaking Republian) and willing to do work on location. Another agent with analytic experience and and a good understanding of Federal and Imporian. Finally we need 2 infiltrators for the democratic and monarchist groups. For the monarchist, someone with noble blood would be nice, if available.

Monarchist are trying to kill us and have rebeles blowing up our factories and power plants. Also, we should try and infiltrate the rebels and i propose someone with particular hatred of those rebel groups but that hasn't been able to do anything about it yet.

Monarchist are trying to kill us and have rebeles blowing up our factories and power plants.

Hence the infiltration. I'm not suggesting we have tea and crumpets with them.

Why would we have one of there possible supporters infiltrate them? Shouldn't it be someone who dislikes them? Someone who lost there father or mother in an attack? That way we know for CERTAIN that they'd be an agent to infiltrate and give us info regularly. An if needed, send in the army to capture there leaders and get him out of there.

EDIT: Or her.
