Lansling Security Forces

'A bunch of government pigs is the only way I see them, So much blood on their hands'

The Lansling Security Forces were established in 1911 concurrently with the birth of the Lansling region. During the period of 1911-1950, the LSF encountered no significant challenges whatsoever. Effortlessly efficient operations defined this era, earning the organization unparalleled recognition. The LSF, despite its earlier success, faced adversities from the 1950s to the 1990s due to the emergence of the Lansling Resistance Association alongside several other armed factions. The initial exposure of the LSF to the violence prevailing in the Unders and subsequent conflicts was unprecedented. Consequently, they faced significant casualties across multiple regions. However, as time progressed, the LSF acclimated to the demands of these conflicts and successfully adjusted their strategies to overcome the challenges. As part of their adaptation process, they upgraded their capabilities by equipping low priority forces such as the Patrol Antrim with advanced enforcement equipment. This transformation eventually led to the emergence of the Patrol Antrim as an effective counter insurgency police force.

### Lansling Security Forces in the Unders

The LSF in the Unders can be described as pure brutality and relentless operations to desperately beat down the terrorism threat. The initial engagement witnessed a somber and continuous loss of life for the unprepared Antrim Officers who, armed with inadequate equipment, engaged heavily armed terrorists in pursuit. Despite managing to secure a few triumphs over the extremists and the Lansling Resistance Association, the overall outcome resulted in significant casualties. Initially, the Patrol Antrim did not receive significant assistance in its civil control duties from detachments like the Armed Support Group and Special Response Group. This lack of support was mainly due to their prioritization of handling more pressing threats associated with the ongoing terrorism, as communicated by the LSF Commissioner. During the 19760's the Patrol Antrim familiarized themselves with combatting heavily armed extremists and were subsequently equipped with advanced weaponry. This included submachine guns, battle rifles, and shotguns. As a result, the Patrol Antrim significantly increased their effectiveness and evolved into a proficient force dedicated to combating terrorism.

In the early 1960's the ARG established a close working relationship with the Patrol Antrim following the authorization granted to them to possess advanced weaponry. Although the primary focus of the Patrol Antrim remained on patrolling specific neighborhoods and high-risk areas in general. However, the SRG faced significant criticism due to their actions of abducting individuals believed to be extremists or terrorists, which resulted in widespread backlash. It was observed that among those targeted were individuals who appeared to be innocent. While the Patrol Antrim and ARG maintained a close working relationship, the SRG operated independently and executed their own operations autonomously. Notably, the SRG stood out as the most covert among the four detachments. The covert nature of SRG might face a challenge when encountering the SRF, also known as the Security Reactionary Force. The SRF operates as a clandestine plain clothes unit, carrying out undercover and covert activities. It has been rumored that the SRG and SRF closely collaborate; however, due to their highly secretive operations, this cooperation remains unconfirmed.

The SRF, however, faced multiple reports accusing them of employing lethal force against civilians while only utilizing non-lethal means such as physical assault and throwing bottles. Referred to as a "swift-moving" force, the SRF's operatives efficiently executed their attacks or successfully prevented ambushes before swiftly retreating from the scene. The challenges encountered by the LSF escalated as the conflict intensified. By 1972, the Lansling Resistance Association and Extremists escalated their use of violence, engaging in more frequent confrontations in public spaces and resorting to the utilization of explosives. The heightened aggression of the LSF resulted in intensified assaults, with increased casualties among alleged extremists. Furthermore, they carried out extensive interrogations of individuals associated with these extremist networks. Consequently, the Patrol Antrim has undertaken measures to reinforce their police stations, considering the escalation of attacks targeting their FOBs (Forward Operating Bases) in recent events. By 1972, the ARG had carried out a series of targeted operations on suspected warehouses utilized by extremist groups. These successful efforts significantly impacted the morale of these extremists, although a few unsuccessful attempts resulted in significant negative repercussions. Moreover, the Patrol Antrim effectively implemented a proactive stop and question policy throughout the Lansling region. This involved the sudden halting of random individuals and swiftly interrogating them in order to apprehend any unidentified extremists. The SRF has implemented diverse unconventional work methods, one of which is the Night Road policy. This procedure involves the SRF abruptly halting vehicles on dimly lit highways during nighttime by positioning themselves in front of the cars. They then identify themselves as members of the SRF and proceed to remove the suspects from their vehicle for thorough searching, as well as conducting a thorough inspection of the vehicle itself, before rendering a verdict.

In 1963, the LSF initiated the practice of conducting 'Security Sweeps' in several towns. These Security Sweeps involved collaborative operations wherein Patrol Antrim and ASG worked together to meticulously comb through the towns, imposing curfews as a measure to suppress paramilitary activities. The deployment of SRG in patrols was not a conventional practice. However, they were summoned to provide aid in cases where the Security operation encountered severe sabotage or disruption. Generally, the Security Sweeps or Operations encompassed proactive interception of existing paramilitary forces in these towns followed by their apprehension or elimination. Security Sweeps could last from the whole night to a few hours, Depending on how severe the terrorist threat is.

In 1964 , the escalation of violence exhibited no indication of subsiding, leaving prospects for peace in a distant future. Concurrently, the LSF persisted in carrying out their operations across Lansling, while the Patrol Antrim significantly intensified the implementation of curfews, resorting to lethal force when necessary. Furthermore, the Security Reactionary Force commenced more vigorous efforts to suppress different factions of satanic extremists. The Siege of Balarcom, a Christian neighborhood, entailed a prolonged altercation lasting six hours between the LSF and individuals affiliated with Satanic extremism. It is alleged that the Satanic extremists effectively employed explosive devices, deliberately targeting Christian households. The Extremists eventually did withdraw from the town as the LSF squeezed them out.

In professional circles, the calendar year of 1974 has been widely recognized as a particularly turbulent period for the Unders. This can be attributed to the intense confrontations that unfolded between the LRA and Satanic extremists, while the LSF diligently initiated efforts to create divisions amongst the communities. The crux of the conflict revolved around determining the religious disposition of various towns, with each faction advocating for either Christian or Satanic affiliation Several Satanic communities required increased surveillance as a precaution against the LRA's utilization of explosive devices, prompting them to launch rockets targeting households affiliated with satanic practices. The LRA exhibited heightened brutality towards individuals suspected or proven to be practicing satanic worship. The LRA's significant impact was witnessed in 1974, following previous years of minimal activity allegedly motivated by the fear of exposure. However, once the LSF effectively uncovered the existence of the LRA, they unleashed their full force to combat the perceived satanic menace. According to reports, the LRA did not view the LSF as adversaries, but rather perceived them as weak. The LRA criticized the LSF for allowing individuals suspected of being satanists to roam freely without taking any action to apprehend or neutralize them. The LRA considered this leniency as equivalent to permitting terrorists to roam freely, based on their perspective.

It has been stated on multiple occasions that the LRA provided assistance to the LSF when they were targeted by extremists. Nonetheless, the divergence in their respective policies, particularly the non-paramilitary stance of the LSF, created a notable sense of competition between the two entities. However, it is important to note that this rivalry did not develop through direct means. In fact, it has been reported that in 1974, the LSF and LRA  were actively engaged in collaborating on several operations. According to certain news reports, there were even claims of documented evidence showing the LRA providing information to patrolling LSF. However, despite numerous assertions by a significant number of individuals confirming its authenticity, this alleged footage has never been made public.
