Yep, sounds like it!. But he can still make some distance, and if he can get them to watse their missiles, they only have 12-2=10 rounds...2 already launched.

In reply to Fate (msg # 945):

Will be out of action until Monday night Aus Time. Family time...

This is Sat morning your time?

In reply to Cyril Zotmund (msg # 947):

Yes 0800 here.

1500 Friday here.

In reply to Cyril Zotmund (msg # 949):

Just a heads up: I will have very limited connectivity for the next three weeks, and for the next 8 weeks after that, work will be crazy, so expect a slow-down in my posting.

As I said... no problems...we will deal with it ...

In reply to Cyril Zotmund (msg # 951):

Vehicles have been updated with revision of Mass combat units. Clearer distinctions between Terran and Vilani units, with the Vilani focussing on Missiles and Terran units with gatling lasers and plasma cannons on Grav tanks, while Vilani units have more traditional vehicles and weapons.

Better connectivity after next Sunday night.

OK, sounds like things will settle down for you some...

In reply to Cyril Zotmund (msg # 953):

Yeah, to some degree. Work will be very busy for 8 weeks after that, then I sit a board, and then  who knows what!

We'll just go with the flow... no big issues

In reply to Cyril Zotmund (msg # 955):

Time for Sdian to get some cp...but given the circumstances, I will award the 6 cp as Allies (Luretha and Neloria). That would leave 4 cp for you to spend a total of 10 cp bonus.

Interesting note, we are into the tenth year in game, and 5 years IRL!

Time Flies ... and so many have come and gone.

In reply to Cyril Zotmund (msg # 957):

Short notice, at sea for a week or so.

Roger, Have fun. We'll deal with it.

In reply to Cyril Zotmund (msg # 959):

Expect to depart for 3-4 weeks around the 19th again.

I saw on Northport ... as always, we just go with the flow.
My youngest will be her 12-21, so I may be less the full time as well.

Likely need to start a new thread too.

In reply to Cyril Zotmund (msg # 961):

Yeah, will let the thread fill up a little more then start Mk III. How old is the youngest?

22, I have a nice spread  45, 43, 30 and 22.

In reply to Cyril Zotmund (msg # 963):

Nice. All hitched with little ones? Lots of grandkids? lol

No actually , the Oldest is a 1st Sgt and has been deployed so often he hasn't managed to put a life together.
The Next is in a long term relationship, committed, but her spouse doesn't want her encumbered with his significant debt... I don'tapprove, but wasn't asked.
The 30 year old just got married and no kids yet and the Youngest is about to propose to his girl friend of two years.

In reply to Cyril Zotmund (msg # 965):

Ah, the military life. I get it. But waiting is not great either. From personal experience...we wish we had started 10 years earlier. Waiting until finances are sorted out...will never happen! There is always something. I think that is how the Muslims plan to take over the world!

Indeed true... but the oldest is not happy about it at all.
They want him to become a Sergeant Major for the Battalion, he doesn't want to waste 3 more years doing that.

I expect the two younger ones will be more inclined ... the youngest is also in the Military.

In reply to Cyril Zotmund (msg # 967):

Ah, yeah. i got the family sorted out before I joined. Made me a bit weird joining after 45, but what the hell. It pays, and I have a lovely wife and daughter to enjoy it!

Don't think you can do that over here unless you are in a medical field... They quibbled with me being 26, although I had prior service which subtracts from your age in their calculations.
