  5. I can tell you this much there you Kangaroo loving, camel humping Irish toadstool if it was from my private harem they would be of the two legged variety not the four. And they would actually be of the opposite sex. Now you may like animals with a "full package" but hey what ever turns your crank. :devil::whistle::rofl:

    You know it wasn't a dirty thought until someone else, I won't mention you 2nd Ranger, came along. :lol:

    @2nd Ranger

    Don't worry I'll leave the camels for you. Not my bag I'm afraid. Though I have seen Gordo give em the funny eye a few times. It's actually quite comical. He gets near a virtual camel and his voice goes all funny. :blink::huh:

  7. Support Freya

    Mission by DeanJP1

    Standing there that morning in the compound we knew the day’s mission was going to be difficult. Looking around you could see in the eyes of the rookies a bit of hesitation. They would be looking to the veteran’s like Dekela, who was on loan to us, to help them through.

    The enemy had launched a surprised attack and friendly casualties had been high. Most of our armour had been knocked out already as no one expected the enemies tank hunters to be so effective. Intel was sketchy at best but communications had been cut off from the entire northwest of the island. As I looked around I could see people like Warbird finishing loading her last .50 mags for her AW-50. Her and Lilgun were discussing something but neither laughed nor did they give off the air of worry. Both would do well that day but neither knew it at this point.

    Final word had come in and I issued the order to mount up. The operation had only two objectives today but we would be lucky to complete one of them. First on our list was to hurry to the town of Asguard. There we would fortify positions in anticipation of another enemy offensive aimed at cutting us off from the rest of the island. We were told to expect heavy infantry forces with the possibility of light tank support and enemy air cover wasn’t completely out of the question but that seemed remote.

    I took up my position in the lead Abrams taking Will, whose brother Gordo was off in the desert somewhere hunting a shilka, jumped in as my gunner. In the second Abrams we put Shotgun in with his SPR along with Dekela. Bird and Lilgun grabbed their Humvee while CK was relegated with bringing up the other one with the TOW launcher. With everyone mounted up we headed out at high speed to Asguard.

    On our way there we received comforting news that Dean and Geriec would be providing air cover for us with their Cobra gunships. All seemed good at this point. We were as prepared as we could be.

    Once we entered Asguard we parked out tanks in positions that offered them the best cover and yet placed in such a way so that anyone could jump the turret, if necessary, to lend support. We decided to hold our Cobra’s back until we had assessed the enemies anti-air capability and neutralised it. Once we had our vehicles in place and pre-staged we quickly moved out and formed a scrimmage line on the first little crest north of town facing to the northwest of Asguard. This was the direction that intel said the enemy was expected to come from. It would be one of the few things those intel weenies would actually get right that day.

    With Shotgun out on our far left flank with his SPR and bird on our right flank with Lilgun and her F-89, the guys swore that LG slept with that thing, I put CK out on our far right as a check value of sorts in case the enemy tried to flank us there. Will, Dekela and myself got in position between the snipers and waited.

    It seemed like it took forever but on retrospect it was probably only 5 minutes before they showed up. First was a two man recon team. I told everyone “hold your fire let them come in closer”. Watching through my bino’s I saw one of enemy take out his. He was looking RIGHT AT ME! Now wasn’t the time to panic I said to mayself. The sun was in my face and as along as I didn’t move he wouldn’t catch any hint of my presence with the way I had situated myself.

    This little squad kept moving up and that’s when it happened. The officer who had his bino’s out saw one of the cobra’s. “Shotgun take them out.” 2 shots rang out and the officer was down. Two more shots rang out and the other scout fell. 60 seconds went by. 120 seconds…. “Three contacts moving in from the northwest approaching slowly” reported Shotgun. Just as I acquired the targets the calls went out. “One just shouldered a RPG!”

    Shotgun was again called into action. This time though they had an idea on his location. “Weapons FREE!” I remember calling out. With that the thunderous rage of Lilgun’s F89 rang out followed quickly by several M4’s. Four contacts appeared slightly to the right of that three man team. Fire was shifted and even as we did so more contacts started pouring over the hill.

    “Here they come boys” cried out Will. Tracers were arching back and forth as we traded shots with the AI. Some of our boot’s went down hard as we expected. I don’t remember what spurred me into action but it seemed as though I started moving to Shotgun at the exact moment he called out that he was taking fire. I took no more than two steps when he called out “I’m hit, I’m down”. I reassured him I was on my way and requested covering fire which I got.

    I moved over to Shotgun and he was hit bad. I administered first aid to get him back into the fight and returned to my original position. That’s when they showed up. “Four T-72’s inbound from the northwest coming hard and fast.”

    The air filled with rockets as Geriec and Dean opened up with hellfires from above the town. Four tanks were quickly turned to scrap piles. Warbird started calling out contacts moving from our west to east. They were trying to flank us on the right just like I though they would. What I wasn’t expecting was this heavy of an assault. CK was grossly out numbered. I had Dean reposition himself to support CK and he had Geriec take up a position on the west of town.

    We still had troops pouring over the hill when the T-55’s showed up. It was quickly becoming apparent that intel had been wrong about the armour strength. I let a Javelin loose hitting the first T-55 while Geriec downed the second one. As Geriec tried to maintain a low altitude his rotors must have hit something because next thing we know he went down. “Did anyone see a rocket?” After several no replies we put it behind us.

    Things were happeningly quickly now. This was turning into a full mechanized assault and we were losing assets. Warbird quickly called out contacts moving down the main north/south road coming in to Asguard from the north. “I’ve got a recoilless and a BMP moving in”. “Wait the BMP just stopped” That’s when we heard the boom of her AW-50. “Recoilless gunner is down.” Warbird reported.

    That’s when our worst nightmare showed up. Lilgun called out “I’ve got four T-80’s inbound on my position” We could see the dust trails and I knew given where they were and where Lilgun was she was in big trouble. The last thing we heard from her mic was the grinding sounds of treads. It would be later found out that she had been run over.

    Rockets once again filled the air. This time from other Javelins and Dean’s Cobra. The four tanks were downed 30m from where Lilgun was at. That’s when the lines started to crumple. First Shotgun went down, then Warbird. I called for everyone to fall back as Dean provided support. I reached over to grab Will and that’s when I took my round.

    They said it hit me square in my back all I knew was that I was down and couldn’t move. I wanted to but couldn’t. Dek’s grabbed Will himself and got him moving. CK was swinging around and flanked the enemy himself along with Dean’s help from above. We had them turning.

    As the enemy was thinned out more they began a retreat of their own. It wasn’t long before we realised that we had done it. We had repelled a large scale attack. It wasn’t without it’s own cost. With our depleted force we decided to hold our position and wait to be reinforced. We fought them to a stalement. Not quite the victory we were looking for but once the team had been re-equipped and re-armed they would move out to clear the island. The question remained as to who would be able to join on that op.

    For the answer to your question you only have to look as far as Parent's loosing their fundamental rights to parent their children. Back in my day had I ever threatened to call the police or family services for the spankings I recieved the response would have been, "You want me to dial the phone for you?" Because what I didn't know then that my father knew at the time, no one would have listened. But in this goody too-shoes day and age it is becoming increasingly "politically incorrect" to discipline your child. Couple that with what I see as the dehumanization of human life, AKA: Abortion, and add to that people's reluctance to be personally responsible for their own actions, AKA: It's societies fault or my parent's fault etc, and you have your reciepe for violence in America with teens. This is just another move to further take the responsibilty away from where it belongs and place it elsewhere rather than admit that what has been going on in the last 20 years was wrong.

  9. The best way to stop piracy, those that don't pick up "hacked" copies for a demo, is not with the latest anti-piracy devices. Things like Steam and the like are mere targets for those that live to break codes and engineer work arounds. If companies wanted to seriously stop piracy, both in the console and PC market the best way is to lower the price of their product. As long as companies are fixated with making the absolute most in the short term piracy will remain an issue. I'm not saying that doing so will completely elimanate piracy by a long shot. Contrary to popular belief I'm not that nieve. However, it will stop a vast majority of it, I believe, as many usually pirate software simply because they can't afford it. Does that make what they do right? Not at all. But also too at a lower price people are more likely to purchase what is being sold. If console games are so easy to program for, IE all the platforms are the same, then why is a console version of PC title so much more? $$$$ is why. When the kiddies can't afford it they will use a pirated copy and there is always some other person, kid themselves most likely, all to willing to help them get what they want.

    why do people reference OFP:2 alot?  I thought that was a dead project.  Is that game still in dev?

    The latest info I have about [OFP: DR], from what I would call a reliable source, is that [OFP: DR] is in development it's just had it's release date pushed back in favour of a better game engine. Now does that mean that [OFP: DR] will hit the shelves for sure? No. As we have seen here things can and do change and short of any official announcement I will only really be able to reliably say that to the best of my limited knowledge [OFP: DR] is still under production and slated for an early 2006 release.
