OP: Steel Talon - March 14 - 15th, 2009

[Big Papi Q]

the weather definitely looks better in your pictures fred... TOP must have sold his soul for that horrible weather that grounded all the US air strikes that us SF guys desperately needed!

You crazy Americans should have just stopped being lazy and built your own missiles like we did.

Those f***ing chem strikes were retarded. You nail the Main Village, take out 50% of the US, and do any of the Cartel people inside the Village die when the missiles hit? No, of course not, and even when all the US people are running away from the Village, the Admins still call them out.

God damn it TOP, where the hell were our F/A-18s!?!?!?!?

Pilots were sleeping on the flight deck...

Nasty, You missed a good Phase 3. SF pushed back for Starlog hunting Sanchez

I know I know, and the only thing at the wedding worth leaving early was the cake. It was ice cream cake. I've been to over 15 weddings, and it was the first time I ever saw ice cream cake.

You and Silent Stalker are going to try and go to Coffee Angels, right? I think we need to get the squad back together for that

when and where is that??? I don't think the other 2 members of my team can make that one

[Big Papi Q]

does sound good.... let me talk to my boys and I will send Stalker a PM

[Peaches]

The US team wasn't dumb when we took HH in the first round. We took two medics with us up the hill just so we wouldn't have to walk back down! Thanks go out to Clay and Gmoney for the assist. Send your prayers out to Clay from S.O.T.A if you know him, he ships back out to Iraq tomorrow.

Just curious when did the US Team take HH during the first phase???

The SF team started there and then after we got wiped with the POW... it took a good 30 to 45 minutes but we had a huge push up the hill which in turn took it back.

I am throwing the BS card out on that one. Junto and I were up there pretty much the entire 1st phase on HH, I didn't see a soul, it was almost like we were forgotten up there. It was so quiet, I could actually send one my squads down to help the push on Starlog. I don't think I went through one entire magazine until after I came off of the hill and helped out in the village. Also the SF team didn't start there, I know this for a fact cause Junto led us up the north side, we were on top of HH within about 5 min after the game start, there wasn't a soul up there either.

Special Forces

The SF Team will be working independently from the Main force, however intel gathering and mission accomplishment will be transmitted to the US Commander. There will be an embedded Admin with you at all times.

Phase I – Start at Hamburger Hill
a. Primary 100 points – Intelligence has obtained that the Cartel holds the 3 man Marine Recon Team as hostages. Paid informant has identified the Ft Peterson as the location of the target. Satellite imagery confirms that a small force holds the Camp but it is unknown where the prisoners are within the Camp. Locate and rescue the Marine Recon Team, then exfil to your Spawn Point. It is your mission to not allow any of the prisoners to be injured or killed.
b. Secondary 50 points – Locate Juan Sanchez and transmit his location to the US Commander. ROE do not engage unless fired upon or you become compromised. It is vital that you remain undetected and locate Sanchez.

Phase II – Start at Hamburger Hill
a. Primary 100 points – Notional Delta Force operatives seized a shipment of the X472. Special Forces Team must transport the X472 from Hamburger Hill to the PZ inside Starlog Camp. Intel shows a large Cartel force moving in the direction of the Main US Base at the Main Village. It is imperative that this shipment arrives at the PZ. The PZ must be held for 10 minutes for the pick up. CAUTION – Do not allow damage to the transport case or contents of the X472.
b. Secondary 50 points – Delta Force has identified a team of Cartel Commandos operating in the area. These Commandos are highly trained and are conducting operations vital to the Cartel Forces. Locate and engage the Commandos to disrupt their ability to accomplish their mission.

Phase III - Start at Spawn Point
a. Primary – Capture or kill Juan Sanchez. 100 points It is vital that Sanchez be removed from power by any means possible.
b. ROE – Engage the enemy as targets present themselves.

I am not calling the BS Card on that one, what I am calling the BS card on is someone saying they took something they didn't or didn't start where they were supposed to . Like I said, even with the 15 minute difference in time, there was nothing going on up on HH after we got up there.

[Solid]

Lol triple and a double post? The internet must have been broken at the time.

Good luck out there Clay, just ride out the last of it nice and easy.

Thats not true... I intentionally called some of those strikes on the buildings the Cartel were in... the Admins killed them as well...

See your guys Primary for Phase II was to destroy the missile system... they had that thing up and running the whole phase... NO US troops even tried to destroy the damn thing. Hell at one point Sanchez was up there with only like 5 people defending Rebel Camp...

100 points for Primary's - 50 points for Secondary's... which one should have gotten more attention? Hehehe

[Chill Phil]

NO US troops even tried to destroy the damn thing. Hell at one point Sanchez was up there with only like 5 people defending Rebel Camp...

Actually that is true. There were only a couple people defending the missiles at one point and I never saw a single US troop try to come anywhere near 'em. I was really surprised cuz I figured that would have been the objective of that phase.

There was an attack, however, it kinda petered out after about 15 min or so, and than things started going to the village.

[Attack37]

I talked to a few people about doing a mil-sim organization. Only reason I want a seperate organization from AP is that I want some changes to the FPS limits. I have heard several people who want to do the same thing, so I hope that once I get home from my deployment that something may have been started.

I agree with the fix's for a "tactical" game of standard uniforms, and mid/standard cap. With no medics, or more complex medical rules.

For a game of just getting out there and shooting people, making contacts, and networking....this game was great.

As far as maneuvering, at one point I walked towards Star Log (think it was phase II maybe III) firing at the Cartel as I moved. Once I ran out of ammo, I'd take cover and reload. I believe that I was very aware of any hits that may have occured, lots of brush hits...nothing striking me. Hard to hit a target that sprays rounds at you the moment you break cover.

Sometimes you just have to grab your b*lls and do some crazy sh*t.

My most memorable moment. I recieved fire from a person using a tree as cover, I spun my weapon towards him and heard "Oh sh*t!".... my guess is that he thought I had a bolt platform.
