[QUOTE="The Shaman, post: 1948921, member: 26473"] I'm really not sure what kind of interest this is going to generate - it's a bit different from most of the "special forces" type adventures/campaigns, so I don't know how broad the appeal will be. We'll see.. The regiment did in fact have a chaplain, but he was assigned directly to the regimental commander's HQ - the player characters will be recruits or replacements assigned to a squad/section, so that may not be such a good fit. Of course, a character who is considering the seminary (or a former priest perhaps?) could be interesting as well. Thank you both, BTW - I didn't know if anyone would find this interesting or not! :heh: I'll post the first campaign briefing later today, and add the OoB tomorrow, time permitting. The glossary and other resources may take a little time, but in the meantime, there are actually two movies you could try to rent or borrow about the Algerian conflict: the most notable is [i]The Battle of Algiers[/i], a very well made film by Italian director Gillo Pontecarvo commissioned by the Algerian government just four years after achieving independence from France and shot on location in the Casbah of Algiers, and the other is a fairly routine actioner called [i]Lost Command[/i] starring Anthony Quinn and Claudia Cardinale (hubba-hubba!), based on a French novel called [i]Les Centurions[/i] by Jean Larteguy. I'd recommend both films if you can find them. I look forward to seeing your character sheets! :) [/QUOTE]
