Can't wait to see how this develops. Am I deciding where the base is and what the conditions of hostages/defenses are?

Repeating it for Cartsy. ;P

[Ramzam]

The time, I lost track of it. I'll post when I wake up this afternoon. >_>

I thought it was pretty clear from the earlier IC posts. It's a fortified civilian structure, a former farm and its' related buildings that's been taken over by the opposition force to use as a HQ. The main point of the recon is to establish their numbers, where the 'hostages' are, and what defences they have.
You can decide that stuff if you like - though remember the oppo force is representing bandits and renegades rather than a military force, so most of their stuff is likely to be improvised and older models than current military-spec gear and equipment.

[Cartwright]

I understand that but since you wanted Maxwell to assist Recon I'd assume he has the.first glance at the base since he has the advantage of the eyes in the skies. Don't wanna say it's just a few baddies in a farm and stuff when it comes down to it.

[Rhona W]

Well, it's fortified, innit? With various constructed defensive works, such as barricades and heavy weapons positions, as well as various vehicles and whatnot. Enemy GEARs, and vehicles would be concentrated there, as well as their communications gear. I'm not really sure how else you want me to describe it, or elaborate. We're not facing a military force, and it's a training exercise, after all. And if I just tell you exactly what you're going to see each time, you might as well just copy and paste everything from this topic into your own posts.

[Cartwright]

Oh no I understand THAT silver. I just need confirmation that the conditions havent changed. Who knows? Maybe they'll be like bandits and run to their buds getting shot at! Or maybe they're cowards in this scenario who will run at the source of gunfire. Or maybe they'll (what I am planning to do) start launching mortars at our guys!

[Rhona W]

Any or all of that is fine - if it's unpredictable, then it makes it a better training exercise!

*Twitches as she suppresses the urge to pour molten strategy over the forum* :P

*grumbles as his strategy is yet again questioned :P*

[Rhona W]

EDIT: Double post, damn forum. It blank-screened on me the first time.

[Winter]

Oh you finally got caught. It's so annoying!

[Rhona W]

Death Forum snafus come to all men (and women)

[Winter]

By the way I had an idea. Could I have been watching your training exercise from satellite or something, possibly taking notes or even being consulted about the teams strategic prowess by command.

Completely up to you. It's all fluff. Haha, get it? fluff... because we're animals.... I'll stop now.

[Rhona W]

Makes sense - then we don't have to catch up on what we've been doing :P
Since we're in a training area, you and Slypheed could be at a mobile command post nearby watching things, outside of the combat area, which is how you could be introduced afterward. We could even introduce both of you a little earlier with that idea. Shoot me a PM with what you're thinking, and we'll work something out.

I'm waiting for some of the others to post before I move things on with the battles. Obviously, having set up a strategy for the assault, I now need people to act on it for us to move on >.<;;

[Winter]

PM sent ^^

That's always the annoying part. Hopefully people post soon :)

Do I have permission to post? :o

[Rafale]

Turns out I had a lot more work than I expected. I'll post tomorrow, sorry for the wait!

Sure, go ahead - I thought you were waiting for Aristos' group to engage the targets, more than anything I was saying.

No problem, I'm waiting for a Kradis post before our group can do much, as the missiles hitting is the cue for us to attack.
