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

[The Shaman]

Thanks for all that info, Boss Shaman. It's certainly appreciated, as always.

I hope I at least answered your question in there somewhere.

Looking at all the different ranks and billets of sergeants in the U.S. Army, it's easy to wonder how the same roles work in the French Army. The French simply used the bodies available, and didn't worry too much about rank.

I'll try to keep up tomorrow, and maybe even post from home, but it'll be a challenge for me until probably Tuesday.

No worries - I have a busy weekend as well.

The vacation's going well. We're going out on a speedboat tomorrow morning to check out some porpoises, and especially to go fast.

Sounds fun! Hang on, and keep a respectful distance from the porpoises.

(Sorry, the old park ranger in me had to throw that in... )

And how was everyone's Canada Day/Independence Day weekend?

 

[Barak]

Ours wasn't too exciting, but overall alright. Yours?

 

[The Shaman]

Our family spent a very quiet weekend around the house. My sister-in-law visited Saturday night, my wife and I donated a load of clothing and furniture to a charity group on Sunday, and then we took the baby to the local park on Monday.

Yes, excitement is my middle name.

 

[Barak]

That is pretty exciting, compared to me... The wife and I spent saturday and sunday driving, getting the kids to and from their dad's. We spent saturday night eating KFC and watching Penn and Teller's Showtime shows on DVDs. Then yesterday, the wife was working.. So..

Well, let's see...

Saturday was my normal weekend day, spent in front of the computer or running errands.

Sunday we went to the crappy beach in RI. The water was cold and full of seaweed, and the sun was brutally hot. Combine that with $25 worth of fried food for lunch and I think you can understand why I raise a fuss everytime Janice wants to go... then quietly get in the car. Mmmmm... clam strips....

Monday was cool though. Keith and I went to the American LeMans Series race at Lime Rock park in Connecticut along with Janice, her sister, and my sister Melanie and her bf Marcus. Here's a small picture of the Flying Lizard Porsche 911 GT3 RSR, which came in third in its class. We are headed back next week for Ferrari Days. Yes, I'm a car nut. Everyone needs a hobby besides gaming, right?

A hobby besides gaming???? The HORROR!!! Seriously though, I pretty much spent the day sleeping and hanging out here... That and using the waterhose to convince people not to blow stuff up near my house...

That and using the waterhose to convince people not to blow stuff up near my house...

"Get off my lawn, ya kids ya!"



July is the month in which I too indulge in my passion for wheeled sports.

 

[Barak]

I used to be a decent wheeled-sport fan, watching F! whenever. Then I moved to the states. The only wheeled=spot here is NASCAR, and it sucks. And I can tell anyone that, as long as I know how to turn -right- as thy pursue me to kick my as..

 

[Bobitron]

All the F1 races are televised here in the US, so it shouldn't be too tough to get back into it. I'm a big fan, supporting Kimi Räikkönen and Rubens Barrichello. This season has been a little whacky, what with Ferrari having such a slow start and the debacle at Indy a few weeks back.
