[QUOTE="aramis erak, post: 8472932, member: 6779310"] They split the party... Part A went north, seeking out wrecs to strip. Part B went south, same goal. Part C stayed at the helicopter. A had radioactive fallout from being downwind of a tac-nuc. (Out of LOS due to terrain, but in the fallout.) Eli got radiation sickness... B had a run in with an ambush... BTR70 + 3 × PCs troops... I used 2× PC's + ½×NPCs... and missed every shot. Both the HMGs broke. They managed to suppress most of the NPCs ... it was a Soviet Army Herofest... Many Soviet Heros that day... Part C found some walkie talkies and a still sealed cup-of-noodles... (the things you find on the scrounging tables...) They managed to get the sky King pieced into barely flyable shape... just before a random encounter resulted in a bunch of tanks rolling their way... they got hit, a PC died from an AP round from a 125mm tank cannon... as did severa NPCs... I took mercy upon them and let them roll to hold it together in the autorotation ... and they did... and they autorotated down to a safe not-quite-a-crash, got it fixed enough to fly, barely, and then they flew like demons to Ramstein AFB... and a ticket home on day 14 after last orders... Campaign end by party agreement. Net casualties of 6 PCs: 1 dead, 3 missing a limb each. The Survivors: [LIST] [*]Lt Bernard LaRousse MD USN-MC - missing an arm at the shoulder [*]2Lt Eli Jensen USMC (Infantry), unmaimed. [*]Capitan Helen Pascal, AdT SigInt. Missing an arm [*]PFC Diega Diego, USMC. Missing a leg. [*]CPL Jackie, USAR Inf. [*]Cpt Amilé Dupan, USMC Intel. Arm blown off by a 125mm off a T80... while in an in-flight helicopter. [/LIST] The chopper was in barely flyable shape... They also managed to get 20-some NPCs out. A Sea King can carry 26 troops, so they were a bit overloaded space wise, but well under Max Tskr-Off weight limit. They abandoned all their loot, too... save the spares in case of needing repairs. 4 months of play, covering 14 days... and most of day 14 spent on a cargo plane heading for a badly fractured "Home"... (Capitan Pascal is presumed to have gotten home via other means) [/QUOTE]
