Folk ARPS

Another sunday, another party of 36 brave adventurers. Together we laughed, we cried, we killed and we died, and we would have gotten away with it, if it wasn't for those damned AAF.

Playlist:

• Into The Woods [Co-op]
• Capital Punishment [Co-op]
• Squirrels [Adv.]
• HSLD [Afterparty?]
• Jets [Afterparty]
• Jets [Afterparty]
• JETS [Afterparty]

We saw a lot of people die in a forest, then we saw a lot of people die in a city, and to finish it all off we took care of the killing first-hand. (And really, we should probably lock the door to our base when we leave it next time.)

As always, comments are most welcome below, especially with regards to new missions for ideas to improve existing missions and make shiny new ones. Also, if you have a nice story be sure to tell it. Videos are always much appreciated, and will be appropriated by our propaganda departement if you tell us about them.

If you think commanding seems like fun, yet hesitate because you worry that you won't come up with a reasonable plan on such short notice, then check out our leadership programme.

If you want to test out an updater/launcher for all your mod needs look no further than our Comrade head's marvellous contraption.

Did you notice that some vehicles/players had way cool FA Tractors on them tonight? That's because of the power of our squad tags. Get yours whilst stocks last.

Like I always say, the UGL is your friend. Unless, of course, it's being used by someone who isn't your friend. Then you're fucked. Seriously, comrades: S P A C I N G is your friend. Far too often, fireteams be like:
Bear in mind that in FAXORBAT 2015, FTLS, SLs and CO are typically equipped with UGLs and rangefinders. At distances of 100-200m, assuming they have some decent cover and are prone, they will have time to get your distance, dial it in on their UGL sights, and take a shot or two at you - even if under your fire. Morever, if you come under sustained UGL fire, withdraw. Although I killed the 4 people in that image using my UGL, I didn't know it at the time - and I clearly didn't kill everyone because a counter-barrage of UGL rounds began to rain down on our position. Knowing the enemy had us sighted-in made it senseless to try and hold the ridge, so we pulled back onto the reverse slope, then high-tailed it out of there. Result: we were able to enter the town from another direction and continue with our mission, at the cost of only one loss (to rifle fire, before the UGL rounds arrived).

Remember, until the Party issues a Glory order, it's okay to run away. Unless the Party subsequently decides it wasn't. Then you're also fucked.

To add on to Fer's post, the UGL counter barrage he describes? Delivered by a squad leader from 300m+ and not, strictly a counter barrage. The other nice thing about UGLs is that they're fairly quiet and there's no muzzle flash. (Blufor thought that Fer's UGL attack was in fact fire from an IFV at a completely different angle)

Turns out the IFV engaged us after we were all already dead

That was good stuff. I like your use of sound effects.
