Air Traffic Control
So I was in the back of this open-top UAZ and there was this other UAZ ahead and he stopped and wait we're coming up a little bit fast shouldn't we - OMG I'M ON FIRE OH GOD OH G--

Of course Kefirz was dead before I'd set up at the small bunker. I blasted away at our attackers through the grass, but in truth this AI dude Wolf named 'Hero of the Federation' was out there by himself doing most of the work for us. So I was sent to the large bunker, where I shot more attackers through the grass, patched up Boberro, and carried on shooting through the grass until it was just me and Teizan. And Teizan was in a Shilka. I went off to hunt Kefirz AI and was eventually gunned down. Teizan hopped out to fix me and got wasted. So, nearly a victory!

Kefirz had requested this and had a plan. Using rocket attacks from the high ground on the 'corner' of the area where the two valleys meet, he lured the enemy into the north-south valley where we had prepared positions for the MAT and SAM teams. The helibourne QRF was first to arrive, but its considerate pilots had spaced themselves out at convenient intervals, which allowed Mag to calmly shoot 3 of them down with his Igla. This was most aladeen. Whilst the rest of our force waited for the enemy armour to move towards them, Mag and I were sent to the bunkers on the west side of the valley to act as spotters (and maybe use our last missile). There was a comedy moment when I watched a BTR's turret rotating towards us, shouted a warning at Mag and turned just in time to see rounds ripping through his body. I patched him up and we re-positioned, spotting a BRDM. We shot the gunner dead; then we shot out a tire; then we shot the driver who had jumped out to engage us with his rifle. Then the BTR shot Mag. I retrieved the launcher and fired our last missile at the BTR, but it fell short. The BTR's return fire did not. Very aladeen,
Bicycle Patrol
I cycled down a dirt track with a bolt-action slung across my back. Kefirz had taken performance enhancing drugs and sped off ahead of us; he got so far ahead that when we re-appeared, running back towards us, I mistook him for an enemy and ordered the the others to open fire. Then Kefirz led us to some actual enemies, which we wasted in short order. There was gunfire off over a hill, so we jogged on. As we came down the reverse slope, I opened my mouth to say something - and was shot dead.
Tomorrow's Harvest: Dome
Probably a good thing harakka wasn't playing. Because I couldn't see my hands! But there was atmosphere aplenty. After a torch-lit jog through the woods, Kefirz told Mag to set up a BOF position overlooking the enemy base. The plan was that Kefirz's element would go forward to the wire and gain entry to the base whilst we covered. But first we all had to sit tight whilst 8+ enemy silhouettes walked silently past us on patrol. When they had gone, the first team dashed forward and began clipping at the fence. I think the entry team was contacted first, but almost immediately we were also exchanging fire with tracers in the dark. At an opportune moment, we too dashed forward and took up positions guarding the gap in the wire. I shot and killed a number of patrolling troops that were attempting to come around the perimeter towards us, then crawled to their bodies in a fruitless search for supplies (damn you, washington!). Then the evacuation order was given and I went to join the others in the back of a liberated truck. Sadly, Mag was shot and lying prone at the back of the truck. I attempted to revive him, but for some reason he couldn't get up. The truck sped off with most of our party inside, but I was alone with Mag (who had managed to get to his feet) and - unbeknownst to me - an injured Boberro. We jumped into an open sided vehicle and made a dash through the dark. Then lighting strikes were raining down all around us - such was the wrath of Boberro.
Monopoli
This had a real element of Heat to it. My team drove into the township and stopped just down the road from two patrolling cops walking along the tarmac. We got out and gunned them down, and proceeded on foot to the T-junction. Looking left, we could see more cops engaging rebels. Taking advantage of their distracted state, we set up and shot the cops, before getting into a scrappy exchange of fire with the rebels. By this time, Kefirz and the others had found the cocaine, so it was time to bug out. I sent Mag and Pro to get the car, whilst Boberro and I continued to lob rounds and UGLs at the rebels. Then the car screeched up and we jumped in, tearing off after a rapid three point turn. Then we were driving into the next town when we ran into a police van and some patrolmen coming the other way. Again, and very aggressively, we dismounted and began engaging the cops whilst walking down the road. The poor van driver never stood a chance: we riddled his cab with bullet holes. I took a round myself, but when I got up it was over. I went back to get the car and collected the rest of my team. Then Teizan appeared on a quad and began weaving around us on the road. At one point he weaved in front of us and I clipped him. We exploded.
Reminder: Next weekend 07/08 April 2018, there will NOT be an official session. All the hosts are in London drinking beer, and if you can be in London too, you are very welcome to join us.
