Nope! TV show? Sounds kinda scary. I can only watch so much of that stuff.
It's an hour-long documentary on HBO about the 86th Combat Surgical Hospital in Baghdad. It is very graphic, but it provides a first-hand look at combat medical staff in action.

Well, an hour I can handle. :) My brother sent me some stuff from a Surgery in Iraq a while ago. Pretty brutal stuff.

I don't have HBO, though. Maybe it'll be on DVD.

I have been reading through the game and story hour for the thread. This is an awesome game. I am glad to see it is up and running again.

If you have room for one more or need an alternate I am throwing my name in the hat.

Thanx

An awesome game? Nope, the awesome game. :D

Thanks for stopping in, Widow. Was the info I passed along of any use in your WWII game?

Bob - Gave me a lot of ideas and there was a ton of great info.

One thing that you did mention and I noticed - trying to play with more than 6 players is almost impossible. Thanx for the advice it saved me a rather large headache.

Watch it at a friend's house if you can, or find someone who can TiVo it for you - I think you'll find it fascinating.

Thanks very much for the interest.

I'd like to keep on with four players for the moment, but you're welcome to be first (and only...) alternate.

Once a sparkling white medina, Algiers' casbah in Algeria has become an overcrowded area with unsteady walls.

A BBC News Picture of the day.

The French are working with the Algerians through the UN to preserve the Casbah as a historical site - I have a research paper on it somewhere in my files...

Sorry for the very lengthy in-game post! It started off as a paragraph and turned into a story hour. Originally it was just a couple of paragraphs indicating that the paras were going to assist Lt. Ferrand at the village, but when I played the coversation through in my head, I realized that there were some details that I could convey by letting you all hear the whole thing.

A very long set-up for a pretty short encounter - bad GM, no Mountain Dew... :\
