So, I'm not sure what I should post, if anything. Cause I'm dumb, and have the situational awareness of a cactus XD

You'd be surprised. Some Cacti have very good situation awareness

[Slamurai]

Oh, sweet Jesus. Sorry for the octo-post; RPGuild's been acting very strangely this night. It's happening to everyone.

My Christmas cactus doesn't. Oh wait. It's dead.
Also, Mahz forgot to station a pyro by his servers, I think.

One pyro isn't enough. Need like 10.

I'll write a new post tomorrow. Didn't have time today :(

I'll proberbly take Shona to investigate what lies beyond the hills^^

[Rhona W]

BADDIES!
Well, probably - it'd get things moving a bit. Although I think that's more to do with school, than the plot...!

In other news, it's amazing how much more motivated a good night's sleep makes you feel.

[Cartwright]

A good night's sleep makes me wanna sleep more~

[Rhona W]

Speak for yourself - I lacked the energy to do much this week. Having another shitty night of sleep would have lead to me doing even less, not more. As it is, I've achieved a lot today, and the fact I don't feel like I'm going to fall asleep on my feet might be something to do with that.

[Rhona W]

Milkman, I somehow completed and utterly missed your post where Oliver spotted the hostiles. I'm not sure if I lost it in the Octopost Of Doom, or whether it just got lost in some other way, but I absolutely wasn't intentionally ignoring it. I'll reply immediately to get you guys involved in the action right away. I'm really sorry I missed that, or else I would've replied to it when I made my post.

[Milkman]

Just to be a bit clear about the hostiles. There are two groups of them at the moment. One under survailance of the recon team/Oliver's drone near the bridge and another group that is under survailance of the chopper. The main force is going to engage the "chopper force" and the recon team the "bridge force, right?

[Rhona W]

That's exactly right, yeah! good stuff, man :)

[Cartwright]

8 kilometers isn't very far away o.o I mean even the world's longest sniper confirmed kill isn't that far away

[Rafale]

Sounds like things are about to get interesting! I'll try to post tomorrow so I can get in on the action.

[Milkman]

Maybe next time we can have like a map thingy in the ooc so that we can get a bit of a picture about positions and such^^

I'm off to bed now. Did already start working on a post. Will be finished tomorrow. Proberbly be up in about 10 hours. Depends a bit if there is internet in the train to work tomorrow :)

... Might not be vital, but I think it'd be handy to have a bird's eye view of the scenario (and any subsequent engagements) to better understand what's going on. Could be easy to whip up in paint or more professional software.

(:

[Rafale]

Maps are haaaaaaard....

[Cartwright]

We just gotta be creative ;...;

No, but given we're operating inside a training area, it makes sense that we'd be operating within a confined 'box' of safe terrain, even if we're not live-firing ammunition. So, while the ranges we fight at might be longer if it's real, for a training mission 8km is probably about right.

IIRC, the longest confirmed sniper kill is by a Canadian Sniper in Afghanistan who made a kill shot at slightly over a mile away. It's on the internet in numerous places.

[Cartwright]

And a mile is 1.6 kilos XD

I meant to say it's kinda far away. My dumb autocorrect on the ipod seems to never fail.
