Are some people away or are they MIA?

lurking players maybe?

I have been really busy IRL...getting prepared to go to Warrior Leadership Course in Hawaii, as well as helping to integrate new Soldiers into the unit.

I am here. I was trying not to nudge the elbows of the folks outside the Bradley to much. Trying to share the posting love and let them have their fair share in the spotlight. :)

I'm hoping its how you guys say... people just busy or letting the others have some spotlight. I know Ben (Legbreaker) is changing jobs, and Kurt might be away quite a bit due to his upcoming deployment.

A couple people in the past have let me know about being away, and thank you. So just a reminder, a quick note eliminates confusion and keeps the pace of the game flowing.

I know I'm pretty paranoid and worry when things get quiet. So feedback is always appreciated - more combat, less combat, etc.

Ok - I pushed the game a little further. I didn't think you'd want to stop at any of the countless villages and towns so I kept you going. There are always wrecks or some sort too but I don't figure you'd want to stop at any either (unless it looked like their was a chance of salvaging useful parts).

In this case though - a partially hidden (intact?) Humvee. I thought would be an exception, but you needn't inspect further if you don't want.

More than just changing jobs as it turns out. Building an entirely new company division virtually singlehandedly.
I'm a property manager - the person who is usually seen as a landlords representative, collecting rents, inspecting properties and generally being a pain in the rear end (at least as far as tenants think).

HOWEVER, I'm a commercial property manager, a specialist role dealing with shops, warehouses, factories, offices and so on. Bucketloads more paperwork involved and often dealing with national and international companies. This new position requires me to create a commercial branch from scratch covering an area of approximately 30,000 square kilometres. The only good part about it is most of my work will be concentrated in just a couple of population centres and the main commercial agency in the area (which I used to work for) is about to self destruct.

I'll i'm hearing are excuses!!!  :-)

pwned.

Oskar (and Kurt if you can) please post how you go about investigating the Hummer and building.

Skimming over the PC sheets, it looks like only Handley is capable of any Polish.

In reply to Fusilier (msg #12):

Krejcik is near fluent but I dont know he's in any position where they would send him off to speak with anyone..

Good to see you back Kurt.

All those skill points in Observation too.  Should've put them into Negotiating.  :p

...

And here I was about to ask what it was going to take to beat a man to the punch when he's got a prepared weapon pointed at you.

Just so you know

due to some major rebuilding to the ground floor of my house my time online might be a bit limited this week. The family is staying in my parents house so I can make good time on the rebuilding and I still don't know if I can get the internet going at my parents place.

Bottom line, I might have some time during lunch breaks but that's it for the next week.

Ok, thanks for letting us know.

So very tempted to give the man a wink and simply say "slave".

:P

In reply to Ben Jagelis (msg #19):

lol

Thanks to Legreaker (Ben), we've got the comms thread updated for callsigns. Some minor changes so please take a quick look. Thanks.

My wife is out of town for the next few days which means I'll be too busy chasing my kids around to post anything worthwhile. I hope to be back in the loop on Saturday.

Fusilier, please feel free to NPC Varis as needed. Just don't make him do anything too crazy, okay?

; )

No problem.

Would it be worthwhile to ask if the locals would react hostile to us hanging out in there neighborhood for a couple or hours? He seems friendly, but if the towns are strongly pro-government we may not be very welcome to set up camp. Might be good to know ahead of time?

Good idea Handley, to post the intel/rumors.

We need more than a couple of hours....
More like a week or two to distill fuel.

Yeah, I know what you mean. I just meant about the first half of JJs plan - to lie up for a couple hours and then cross the next river. Then - once across lie up to distill which would take a long time (unless we can trade for it - or raid/ambush something for it... Mad Max style).
