Wing and Sword: a d20 Modern military campaign [METAGAME]

[The Shaman]

I'm back. Nothing I've done to try to fix my computer had any effect, but it hasn't shut down on its own yet tonight. Thanks for posting for me, Shaman, and sorry again for the holdup.

HE'S BACK! YAY!

 

[The Shaman]

I apologize if I am dense, but with Normand moving ahead, is Marcel caught up with him and able to do a Treat Injury check now?

Whoops! Sorry I missed this earlier!

Marcel is with Neumann, Gonzalez, and Normand in G6 - the "F" is for Fortier. Sorry I didn't make that clear. Normand fired this round, which makes it difficult for Marcel to assess and treat him - you'll need to wait until round 25 (and get Normand to hold still!) to roll your Treat Injury check.

Next round he's reloading.. So not moving -that- much..

 

[The Shaman]

I put up a short post resolving Marcel's Treat Injury attempt, using Bobitron's earlier roll (with a penalty for Normand reloading...). This doesn't complete the round however - I want to give знаток today to post if he can - if he doesn't I'll NPC him for another round.

 

[Bobitron]

I just talked to him last night. His computer is acting up again. He is going to try and post from work, but as always, it's not a sure thing. I think more NPC'ing is ahead...

I understand. As long as he doesn't mind being NPC'd for a bit, I would like to keep the game moving along.

Thought this might be of interest: The Algerian War on Television.

The clip on military operations in the Aurès gives an excellent look at the terrain.

I'll check that out ASAP, looks like some good info!

знаток's computer issues continue, just so you are aware.

It's really cool - you can see what the actual soldiers look like while they are performing the same duties as your characters. The snippets are short but they add so much more of a sense of "You are there!" than any description I could hope to offer.

Okay. I went ahead and NPC'd him again this round, and I'll just keep going until I hear otherwise.

We're getting to the most intense part of the encounter, and I would really prefer not to let three or four days pass without action. What happens in the next few rounds will likely determine the battle...

 

[знаток]

Sorry all. Until I figure out a way to fix the computer at home or get the time and guts to reformat the hard drive, I probably won't be posting from home. The good news (for the game, anyway) is that starting today and through the end of May I'm back on the night shift, so I'll have some free time at work to post.
