All contractors have a Contractor ID Card and must renew it every year (by justifying a minimum of 120 operational hours). If they are captured during an operation with a valid contract and a valid ID card, they have the status of Prisoner of War. The New-Californian NGO "Lance Limited" is in charge of this system and provide an intranet called Lance.NET, where anyone can recruit PMCs. | |

Replace "PMC" with 1950's Korea, 1960's Viet Nam and 1980's Afghanistan and you have exactly what you describe: superpowers who have chosen to battle each other in proxy wars. The difference, I think, is that it was never codified that we would only fight in proxy wars, it was just in everyone's best interest to geographically limit the conflicts. | |

For what you says, my War is no longer a World War III but a kind of political chess where PMCs are tokens. Victory or Defeat inside War Zones could lead to releasing prisoners, resources, money, and so on. That's very interesting. | |
