Game concept-
US has closed its border with Mexico, due to recent cross border raids by Bandits. US Border Police and Military units are patrolling the border to prevent these bandits from crossing and taking valuables back into Mexico.
Casaulty cards will be used (improved version), with provisions for taking prisoners, and hopfully turning these bandits into fine upstanding US citizens who will help defend the US borders. On the other hand the Bandits may also take prisoners and turn US citizens into money hungary bandits.
If any one has a preference for a certain side let me know and I will start forming teams.

There is a little more to the game, there will be side changes but only if medics can get to the wounded, and at the start only one side will be able to capture the other, more info to follow

Here is a Game overview;
Border bandits

US Objectives;
Regen point- Safe area for 5 minutes then return to Hotel to resume game. Kill flag remains on head until you reach the Hotel. If Hotel is captured by Bandits, US troops may not regen until the Bandits have vacated the Post.
US will station 5 outposts, one at each bridge, these posts may roam.
US Troops may not cross the river.
ROE-May not fire across the border unless fired at first. Bandits on US side (South of River) may be fired at anytime.

Bandit Objectives;
To cross the River (Mexican/US Border) and capture Weapon components that are spread among the outposts on US side. Only one tube may be returned per crossing.
Bandits may capture the Main US outpost, but must vacate the post after 10 minutes.
Regen point is Fort on north side of river.
Some US troops will have maps showing locations of tubes with weapon components. Each map may show one or more of the components. There may be some false components on the field, these are worthless to the Bandits. Components will be Paintball tubes.



KILL Cards;
There are two different types of KILL Cards, one with a Red K, and the other with a Blue W. If you have a K card you are dead. You must return to your Regen point and return the game after receiving a new card. If you receive a Blue W card you are wounded. You must stay where you were hit and wait for a medic. Once the medic reaches you he will take your old card and give you another card, you may then restart the game from that location.
In the morning hours if a Bandit is reached by a US medic that Bandit is Regen into the US Army.
Afternoon, either US or Bandits that is reached by a medic is regened into the Army of that Medic.

Mercenaries- US may at some time during the game hire mercenaries that may cross the river and not be subject to US ROE.

Great Game everyone,
The win will have to go the US, the bandits didnt get all of the weapons tubes, so the US is safe from Bio weapons for now.
The Bandits did a great job.
Thanks Hope to see you all in two weeks, sat, 8-27-05.
