Overview
First known as the Cheating Resistance Organization, the Commando Recon Operations was a military style organization first founded as an Anti-H4H group. It was a key member of the LBP Union up until the schism.
History
The Cheating Resistance Organization was founded by Kazmord in mid 2009, and was rather small. It worked to develop a rather detailed arms program and became a well known developer of naval vessels. Before the start of the RSR War, the Red Skull Republic attacked the CRO with photo spam due to faulty
intelligence given to the RSR by the Agents' operative in the clan, who was caught. This attack sparked the opening of the war.
Continuing arms development for the next year or so, Kazmord eventually resigned as leader and gave it to a certain individual. (Who?) M88youngling, a minor member of the clan, eventually was then given leadership. With H4H coming to a close, he decided to rename it the Commando Recon Operations, and its ideals changed into a sort of private military corporation, which fueled M88youngling's interest in armed affairs.
Commando Recon Operations
Becoming rather moderately sized, it was fair to say that the CRO had replaced the Agents in M88youngling's focus. During the meeting when President Godman2k7 stepped down, CRO members stormed the chat as tensions escalated. This sparked the schism that brought the Union to collapse.
The CRO was a core member of the New Union, if not the only active one. Other New Union clans such as the Eagles were not very active in the alliance. Eventually, with pressure from other rising clans of a similar theme, M88youngling brought the CRO to be his prime focus, and dismantled the New Union, featuring a bombing of its capital city Blankton and the New Union's headquarters. The CRO pursued a dark, militaristic theme, but was ridiculed for its lack of
detail in doing so.
The clan often fought with the Elite Sack Force over an unknown grudge. This led the ESF to join the Loyalist Union to gain allies to unite against the CRO.
The Shadow Epoch
The CRO joined the clans of the Shadow Epoch. It pursued warfare and sought to make its mark on the world through armed conflict. However, many of the other warring groups of this time in the post schism world ridiculed the CRO for its childish attitude and more specifically, its lack of creative skill. This led to a great deal of resentment from the CRO towards the rest of the community due to the elitist attitudes they were confronted with.
The CRO did find a few allies, which persisted very briefly, such as "JR" (check name).
The greatest enemy of the CRO was the Fallen Republic and its satellite states, known colloquially as the Shadow Paradigm. It dedicated itself to combating FR due to their nazi ideology and elitist attitudes. However, the tactics used against the Fallen Republic led to the CRO's downfall. Flamewars and photo spam were a weapon of the past, and the FR and its allies used their high pedestal to ridicule the CRO and use them to augment their own strength by using them as advertising. The more the CRO made a big deal over FR, the more people knew about the clan, and therefore the more influence they maintained. Eventually the overwhelming support for FR at the time led M88youngling to resign from the clan and disband the CRO.
Developments
The CRO was a powerhouse in OCB arms manufacturing, but this did little to help their political status much to their dismay. While several engineers came and went within the CRO such as WillThiv and Helmethed, the chief developer of the CRO's arsenal was M88youngling himself.
Early technology utilized by the CRO was modified community technology and reused old Union technology. However, when LBP2 came around, the CRO began to develop its own weapons for its arsenal. This didn't advance into full effect until the CRO retired its premier LAAT Gunship, which was a community model with flight and armament logic made by the CRO.
The CRO eventually developed a series of aircraft known as the R-Type series, which were based on the "shoot-em-up" series "R-Type."
