ShapurRaiders
Alpha1 FTL. Alpha squad was ordered to take cover in the Shapur2 compound and wait for the convoy. What Alpha didn't expect is that the compound was filled with hostiles. One teammate died almost immediately upon disembarking (Wolfenswan I believe). We carried on to the north-west, clearing out the compound.
When it was cleared, we took up positions in the north of Shapur-2 near some walls, overlooking the road. Then we heard rotors, and a Hind flew right over us. Killa, the RPG guy, immediately fired his RPG at the hind but it missed. On the second fly-by Killa hit the Hind in the tail, it started smoking and flew away, presumably crash-landed. The ensuring celebration was interrupted by a SECOND Hind, spraying rockets on Charlie I believe, and killing a lot of them. I was feeling very exposed on the open, and ordered Alpha1 to take cover in the house just over the road. Killa went to go scavenge more rockets for his RPG, while the rest of us stayed in the house, killing the convoy.
Then I went to the roof, and something shot me, no idea what.

I was Opfor puppeteer, Local insurgent group 05 to be precise
. My group was part of the main assault force that assaulted the enemy town from the east. The plan was for 2 diversion squads from the north and south to engage the enemy, and then we would quickly move in and slaughter them from the flanks. The diversion plan failed as the main squad opened fire on enemies. I ordered my AI to do a glorious death charge. I heard a request from comrade Kefirz that enemies are right next to him, on the eastern hill with rocks. I ordered my remaining AI's (3 of them), to go there. In the ensuring battle on the hill, we killed 2-4 hostiles. And that was it, nothing stopping us to march into the village. Then we heard the game message, choppers refueled.
In the village, my AIs died and I was alone. on TS, an enemy squad was reported on the northern side of the village. I went all sneaky and approached the enemy. They were lined up to a wall, shouting something to each-other via VON, 3 guys I believe, you could hear them from a mile away
. I opened fire on them, killed one from the first burst, the others returned fire. While firing my AK, i strafed behind a building. Waited for a bit, then ran around the corner and shot them all. As I was standing over their bodies, victorious, I got shot from the hill to the west, 50 meters away, by a hidden guy.
The rest is well documented in the posts above

I was Automatic Rifleman in Alpha1 (I believe). I missed the briefing screen, as my PC overheated. I had to restart, luckily I got in just in time the game started. We were driving our humvees at the main entrance to Zagrabad. When we arrived there all fireteams split up, left the humvees behind, and took their own designated route. First contact was made, a guy crawling around on the mosque. Then our fireteam encountered an enemy in a building complex just ahead of us. We sprayed bullets at the guy, and he hid. We carried on, but then we got bogged down in shootings. I climbed a building and saw an insurgent standing on a balcony, looking at me. I proned and let loose my volley of death, later I saw on the debrief that it was Zitron. The hivemind ordered us to advance over the road, deeper into enemy territory and we did.
We were all lined up near a wall, waiting to advance over to the next street. Suddenly, automatic fire killed my FTL. I had no cover, didn't know what to do. Turned around and saw that sneaky insurgent Ice standing in the window of a building behind us. I had just the time to turn around as he shot me, and then he shot the entire 2 fireteams that were there.

I was on the side that was defending, Delta fireteam lead. Deltas orders were to hide back on the north-eastern side of the compound, and when the enemy came inside the compound, we would strike from the behind and kill them all! As we were overwatching, we saw two transports driving on the riverbank. I advised command, he said to engage or to hide back, my choice. I decided to hide back as they had atleast 8 men in the ladas and we had only 4 and no automatic weapons. We lost track of the ladas later on. We heard shots, the compound was breached. Delta arrived late to the party as we had to heal up a teammate who got injured by rocks. We flanked some of the enemies, but we were killed pretty fast.
Anyway, my first folk session, thank you for hosting, was very fun!
