[QUOTE="Ralts Bloodthorne, post: 3073403, member: 6390"] Recently my d20 Modern players had to retreat, and in a hurry. They went into a city to grab medicine and a portable X-Ray machine from a hospital. It's Year Four of the Rising, and that meant zombies would probably be the least of their problems. The hospital was home to a Wolf Pack (Lord of the Flies on Meth cannibal children) about 15 strong. They held the line long enough to grab the goods, and start to retreat. They dropped hand grenades and PDM's behind them as they retreated, took the stairs and set up a Claymore land mine outside the door of the stairwell, then backed into the ER lobby, laying down covering fire. Their recovery in a modified ice cream truck waited for them to radio that they were ready, the drove through the front doors. The guy in the mount kept up suppressive fire with the M-60 while the recovery team climbed into the vehicle, and then they got the hell out. They retreated from a vicious and tenacious foe, but managed to get the job done too. Another time, they had to retreat from prepared positions when the mob of zombies started overrunning their line. They had to pull a strategic withdrawl from that line back behind the prison walls. It involves "falling back by squads, laying down suppressive fire" in order to make sure that nobody gets slaughtered. Retreat is not only an option, but sometimes a neccessity. [/QUOTE]
