Intell update- US Blackhawk has been shotdown at least one survivor, probably one of the crew so he will be lightly armed. Local tribesmen have indicated that there are at least several small Taliban Antiaircraft missile crews operating in the area, and larger units have been reported moving into the area to locate the US Crewman. US SF and Rangers have been ordered into the area to locate and extract this crewmember.
More to follow.

[garyb]

additional Intell-
US Sources have again ID'ed a downed US Crewmember, lightly armed but carrying critical intel which is needed at GHQ. He rescue is highest priority. Other sources have ID'ed one or possibably two female civilians in the area. These civilians must also be recovered.
Two Spinger AA crews have been seen in the area, each team of 2-3 members have been seen with a missile launcher. these teams must be eliminated to safeguard US choppers in the area.

Just for everyones general info, I am trying to keep everyone with the same type of uniforms on the same teams. This could mean that the US would have one team of Tiger Stripe and one team of Woodland, while the Tailban would be all other types of uniforms, thusly if you have a specific side you want to be on TS and Woodland (OD or black could also be US depending on numbers showing) will be US while all others will probably be Taliban. If we need to change thing even more we can still have US with other colors, but the main objective is for each team to have the same colors.
One final thought we could have a mix of all other colors for one Taliban team, a militia unit.

New ideas are in the works for the next game on the Saturday the 13th.

Thanks for the great game. Looking forward to the one. Btw, where were all the terroists at the end of the last game? I think I only counted 3 at the base.

[Zorro]

Great times today! Being the VIP in that last assault was... special to say the least. If i remember correctly, the rest of the team was around the field in the low brush, but I'm not sure, cuz I got dead real quick.

Thanks again Gary!

[SigPro552]

I agree, great time today. And having u as the VIP was special, cuz i got to light u up real good. Had a lot of fun regardless. Thanks Gary.

Good games Gary. I liked the variation on the kill/medic/respawn rules. A nice change from "wait for the medic".

[Black_Kade]

Hey did anyone find a 28rnd shorty loading tool in the safe zone?? I lost one.

[garyb]

no reloading tool was turned in, the only thing left over was a mag with KKT or maybe it was TKK initials on it

[garyb]

I am thinking of using these kill cards more often. I will make a different set of cards that are in little more simple to understand. Let me know what you think?

[RTO]

I thought the kill cards were a great deal of fun today. They worked out great but I think things need to be simplified with the whole respawn thing. It was kind of confusing to our U.S. Forces, and yeah, Logan, next time use a little common sense! lol, j/k. Should've taken em hostage once you revived them!!!!

I'm all for the kill cards Gary, they were a new twist on things.

[Professor]

Nice game Gary. Unfortunately, the US and Coalition Forces got "owned" until the last skirm...that's sad. Way to go "tangos".

Otherwise, yes the medic cards were a nice twist - except mine kept getting soaked in me pocket...maybe laminated would be a nice touch, eh Gary?

Anyway, thanks all...see ya at tha next one!

[Stelthturkey]

T'was a joyest experiance... My first large game and i had a great time! Minus the friendly fire and the fact the US forces got reamed on! Other than the it was the shaznit! :]
