Thanks for showing, thanks for acting as nicely as y'all always do and thanks for killing all of these guys:



They had it coming.

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.

Also, the FA patches are still a thing. No, really, I'm not even making it up or anything. So, you know, there's that.

And now, I sleep.

I noticed that they did not show up for some reason tonight...

Great session tonight, a lot of fun.
Video to follow.

It's been a while since I've been paralysed by laughter. Who knew a giant pile of corpses could be so funny?

"A Box in a Box" saw me getting that promotion I'd always wanted when Madrak's blood erupted in a glorious fountain befitting the death of a true soldier. Tragically, having been elevated to the lofty heights of FTL, I had no clue what to do, as I never pay attention during the "here's what we're going to do" planning phase. I like to think that I just have so much damn strategy in my brain that I can't absorb anymore input. Regardless, my illustrious reign as leader of fire team alpha 2 was cut short when our escape vehicles wrecked not just once, but twice (after some kind soul stopped to scoop us up), and now, riding the boot-leather express across the landscape trying to get to the rally point we were gunned down by a half-dozen evil helicopters. We actually were doing quite well--all things being equal--until they started using explosives. The enemy never plays fair.

"Tea Time" Highlight of my night (besides being healed and picked up a million times by Reppy)

Was getting bullied by a panther, seemingly having no AT, then remembering I had a satchel charge in my pack somwhere.

When asked by Boba if I had more rockets left, I said "No, but I have this satchel". "A SATCHEL!" he exclaimed, and proceeded to lay out what needed to be done.

Up on the road where the puma was doing it's rounds - plant charge - hope not to get shot by incoming sporadic gunfire - wait for the thing to return - blow the thing to pieces
Very satisfying!

Inter IV [Adv]
IndFor (AAF) A1 Rifleman, with Zenzos (FTL), Tink, Vincent, darkChozo and Boberro.

I kinda like this mission. It's simple, quick and unforgiving.

A1 was tasked with taking the high-ground by the windmills and create a distraction, while A2 was to sneak up through a gully and assault the enemy position from the south. A perfect pincer attack.

Turned out, sitting on a hill with no cover is a bad idea (as in almost any other Folk ARPS operation), and A2 had some very flat "deadly ground" to cross. I died early - but got to spectate glorious firefights.

DAMN YOU CONNECTION!

Why did it have to konk out on me in that critical moment?

Highlighty stuffs!

Shame I didnt record the pre-session when netkev was trying to drop a-10's on me mid-flight though.
