Afterparty - Compound
The second mission of the night saw a huge setpiece battle between a horde of Russians and UNPROFOR's Expanded Mandate. At first, Tiger's Alpha reigned victorious over the hill, sending The Dreaded Hind crashing into the ground, aflame. The platoon's AT made short work of the oncoming tanks, but after a furious fusillade of fire, Alpha's back was broken amidst crashing waves of Russian regulars! The remnants of Bravo charged, SuperU charged, the surviving attachments charged! SuperU made it to the top, but was murderized by a friendly HEDP round exploding in the trees above him, and Fer and Issus breathed their last defending their brave commander's corpse on the summit. All was quiet, and the remaining 6 (!!!) Russians took stock of a thoroughly horrific victory. The full story emerged later - as Alpha fell back in disarray under machine-gun fire and grenades, one of their number charged forth instead. Sequestering himself in the cab of a convenient tractor, he took the farming implement on a Tottenritt directly through Russian lines. Mysteriously, no one shot at him. He was later seen in a photo from the International Red Cross, lounging in the airfield from whence Russian reinforcements emerged. The investigation is still on-going...
Arriving on the foggy coast of Altis next, SuperU's Bobcat led a heroic charge in Air Raiders that overwhelmed the first layer of our defense and pinned me in my little tower. Fortunately, that tower is rated against anything and everything up to and including sub-orbital tungsten rods, and Super hopped out for a second to heal – I capped him, and his body was cooked in the subsequent bonfire generously applied to the Bobcat by MAT. Charred Super in the morning with which to celebrate my victory… mmm…
Come From the Water – Golf Company swept ashore in a hail of GP fire, smashing aside the CSAT counteroffensive. Alpha vanished into the nearby town, never to emerge again, but Bravo seized a nearby ridge and gulley, swarming over the transformer complex and claiming victory for NATO by sending the transformer station flying sky-high!
Finally, in the afterparty, a thoroughly well-armed and armored AAF squad dashed themselves to pieces against the stalwart BluFor defenders until only Head and Satire remained, one with an MMG, one with an APC. They met on the field of honorable pistol duelery… where Satire let loose with his belt of 7.62mm, and Head responded in kind with his mag of 6.5. The duel was over before it began!
As ever, please post your thoughts, feedback, screenshots and video here - comrade YouTube Hero SuperU's FA doesn't just produce our video idents, but provides leadership and guidance to propaganda artists. We also have a new YouTube channel that he manages so if you have any content you think should feature then let him know and he will sort you out, for more info check out this thread!; more guidance on video editing for Folk ARPS is provided by comrade Ferrard Carson. Posts in the AAR threads really helps us (the hosts and mission makers), both with understanding how we can improve the experiences, and showing potential comrades what our sessions are like.
Until next time, eat yer vegetables!
