This is back? Schweet.

I'd like to first apologize and say I'm sorry for never getting that patch made. I finally had got around to getting it done, then I get blue screened in mid progress, corrupting the file and a few of my other longer term projects. Afterwards I got so backlogged at my old job, the whole situation sucked. I finally had my CCT created too, but then I lost my internet and RPG went down almost simultaneously. I'm getting back into the flow of things now, and I hopefully can support you guys again (another patch perhaps), until something comes along and takes my time. On a positive note I finally managed to get my hands on an MBAV and I've been like a kid at the candy store.

Jesus, sucks man. I think the RP is open, but since we're in the middle of a mission, it may take a while. I mean, actually, wait- I could spin you in as aboard the helicopter, but it'd be hard to explain. I'd want Skyth, Queen and Silverwind to really say if that'd be okay- I mean, I want to put it down to that, if the RP could work. I reckon you could, and you may need to briefly remind us of your character, but do it quick, and we'll have you basically on the Little Bird too. As I said, it depends on everyone else- I mean I don't want to speak for everyone else, so it's their call really.

I really wouldn't mind at all - it makes sense to me in character, as we've lost members of the unit earlier in missions, so someone new being transferred in would shore up the gaps. And the unit is unconventional anyway, given we're from all different nations, and dealing with rapidly changing situations, so I could see the actual organization and supply of it being a bit of a hodge-podge in kind of an eternal 'fix-up', which would explain things away.
Out of character, I think a new member wouldn't be a bad thing. Especially since Zenku's been consistently hanging around and eager to join in, rather than just dropping by once and asking to play.

Having another person in an RP is always good, especially since right now it's down to just four of us.

I wouldn't mind either. Having a new member would make things a bit more interesting.

Aaand I'm back. Accepted- since he's a JTAC/CCT, he'll be on the front with Jan dictating where the Russian Fast Air puts it lead. Makes sense really- you are free to post, in the RP.

Also, have him take the AT4, and that M4A1 Grenadier if he's being written in. Thank fuck we have an M4A1 back in this RP, normal guns rather than the exotic 416 and RPD and all that we're being thrown around here :D

Hey, my MP5 is considerably less than exotic!
And I blame all the vidya games for the exotic gurns >.>
I did consider an AT4 for Scott for this mission, but I thought having something reloadable would be a better idea. And Javelins are too big - I'd have to bully someone else into carrying reloads for me.

May I suggest either a SMAW or a NLAW? And yeah, you are right, it is THE SAS weapon of choice, if you know, the G36/HK53 aren't there. Actually, HK53? Exotic one there...ish. 5.56, and it's basically a slightly larger MP5 firing non-STANAG based magazines (though it can be modified to do so).

Eh, I considered both of those too, but the SMAW and the NLAW are both also one-shot weapons, which is why I had Scott chose the Carl Gustav. Not much point being the 'anti armour specialist' if you've only got one shot to do it with.
Also the 'Charlie G' never comes up in anything, and considering the SAS used one to put a hole in the side of a warship in the Falklands, I imagine there's a pretty healthy respect for it among Scott's colleagues. And I wanted to use one as well.

I considered the PKM, Pecheneg or RPK, but they were either too heavy for the job (PKM), too hard to explain where it came from (Pecheneg), or too little in terms of magazine size (RPK). Besides, always thought the RPD was a cool gun. XD

It is, it's just old-school as fuck, and for that reason, I approve adding Piccatany rails and making it swag. There is the AEK-999, but that's still basically a PKP abused to all shit.

The SMAW is reloadable actually- the Mk153 does have that detachable thing at the back, but still, the Carl Gustav is a great launcher, and an awesome one at that.

I keep wanting to make a post, but I feel like I haven't really got anything worthwhile to add. Also, I wasn't sure if Zenku was intending to edit his post into an in-character one, or just leave it blank.

Not a clue- just carry on as usual, I can write it in if Zenku comes back. You can add something short if you feel like it, to maintain the continuity.

FYI as an in general point, I'm going away for a little over a week from Saturday. I'll have limited access while I'm away, but I won't be writing any lengthy posts while I'm away. I can be reached though, and I will check on the site a few times.

Going to post at some point today- Skyth, you still going away on the 6th of Sep? If so, I mean, if there is any contingency that you want me to know about Zhenya, then let me know- I do have a myriad of ideas, but safe to say, I'm just wondering if it's still cool with you and all.

Also Silverwind, that is fine- no problems at all, real life comes first and all.

Had to happen eventually, but I'm enlisting with the good ol' SAF tomorrow. Will be out in two weeks' time, if all goes well. After that, I'll be out every weekend until February, when I graduate from basic training.

Ah I see, so basically, you'll be around, just not on weekends and the next two weeks. That's cool man- I think that isn't too much of a worry then, have fun with that U-100 and SAR-21, you've got to tell us if that recoil reduction is real on the former or not :D .

Anyone going to throw a post up? My last post isn't great, but I do want to push on, and generally begin the assault on the airfield any minute.
