Hailfire, I actually think he was talking to Raisa, not Ashers. Correct me if I'm wrong, but he did say 'small female fox in a different uniform', which I would presume is Raisa.Dang it, I even had a post ready to go when you ninja'd me. :P

That is correct. Oliver is currently talking to Raisa^^
But feel free to interact with him, especially when you're character is female :P

Operation Steve Irwin is underway

(Thanks for the name, Sylph!)

I will post on the IC shortly, since I think we've had as many replies as we're going to get at the moment, and I want to press on.

[Rultaos]

I see you guys are still misspelling Slypheed's name even now XD (Unless of course that's how she wants to be called, then I'm just going to look like an asshole here...)

[Ramzam]

I think my town is GMT-5. I'm not sure anymore, night and day are the same to me as of late. Ó _ Ò

[Kyelin]

Yay for progress ^^ And such a diverse RP group too, I love it :D

[Cartwright]

On ze time concept I for one am EST. It is time to wake up here T~T

[Milkman]

i've been up for 8 hours already and been painting my house all day :D

[Slypheed]

I am in GMT+6 I believe.

[Rafale]

Say, Silver, how did Operation Steve Irwin go?

[Rhona W]

Ramzam got back to me to say he'll post shortly. Haven't heard anything from Peyote so far, though going by her activity she's not been on the site for the last week on any thread. I'll give it another day for her to get back to me though, just in case there's anything that's prevented her from posting or checking her inbox.
Everyone else is pretty much on track in the IC though, with no posts older than a week, so it's all good there, even if not everyone is active in the OOC.

EDIT: In other news, new IC post is up.

[HopelessIncubus]

Sounds like someones using an old MAC OS in their tablet.

[Kyelin]

So, are we allowed to requesition armament modifications for this mission? Seems like artillery could get pretty messy for the hostages :S

[Cartwright]

WELL. THOSE HOSTAGES SHOULDN'T HAVE BEEN KIDNAPPED IN THE FIRST PLACE. *Launches the artillery*

Alright aside from that comment I guess I shall wait before I post... Gotta see how Hailfire's character reacts to our little Airman.

[Kyelin]

lol cartwright XD

I made a reply in the IC regarding that, but after looking at your sheet, I can't imagine that it'll be a huge issue given the nature of the mission - 40mm mortars wouldn't have a massive explosive footprint. 40mm is the calibre used by modern-day grenade launchers, and the 70mm cannon wouldn't be as massive as modern-day artillery either, which tends to be 120mm+, so GEAR artillery wouldn't be the 'grid square removal service' of normal vehicle artillery.
I figure its' role is more to cover other members of a GEAR unit or infantry working in concert at shorter ranges and in more tactical situations like this one, rather than blanketing whole areas, which is still the purpose of vehicle-based or Landcruiser-based artillery or missile systems.

I will have to wait until later today to post. I've spent the last day and today preping for an interview at midday, hence most of my posts on the guild have been ooc only.
