Confirmed that it's an AGS on Alpha.

Also, heads up that I'm on vacation (or "holiday" if some of you prefer :)), for the next week or so starting tomorrow. I'll still have access to the internet, but will be dealing with about 30 in-laws, so my posts may be disrupted a bit.

Map updated.

Per Ferro's request, can Hank see and get to the CP?  I'm obviously missing it on the map.

I'm under the impression that the CP is the BTR wreck, about 50' NW of Voight's current position.

You are quite correct, Rae, that is indeed the CP.

I can't wait to retire next month so I have more time to dedicate to my gaming.  I'll post accordingly tonight or tomorrow, Thursday.  Thanks for the clarification.

There's the Krok and then there's the wrecked BTR that's used as the CP.

I'm guessing that most of us are in a similar boat here but just a quick heads up, I probably won't be able to post again until Sunday.

From Sunday onwards I'd expect to be able to post as normal.

Merry Christmas, Happy Hanukkah, and enjoy Kwanzaa.

I'll try to shoot for a Monday turn, but won't hold that firm as I know not everyone will be around. Like every year, we'll just see how it goes.

And happy holidays. Thanks for being here.

I did say I probably wouldn't get another chance to post...

After I post for Marta that will be me done until Sunday though

@Corkman, just to clarify, Kessler wants Voight to set up the PKM machine gun that Kessler has just handed to him soewhere where he (Voight) can cover the area outside the front gate. He (Kessler) is suggesting using the hull of the BTR 60 (without going inside it) but if you want to do something else that's cool. Ammo count for the PKM is unknown.

A merry Christmas to you all

FYI, I've just edited Tosh's last IC post to include a mention of the spotlight.

Ta,

Andy

Priecīgus Ziemassvētkus! From Varis

Glædelig Jul! From Per.

Merry Christmas! From me.

Peace

No problem.  I wanted to make that quick radio transmission to Ferro before he gives you the radio since she sent me over here for an assessment of the CP.

Merry Christmas to all!!!

In reply to Varis Babicevs (msg # 912):

Like it!

Frohe Weihnachten. At this point I think we should declare a truce with the MU, get a football out and have a kick around in the trenches while we play the pipes of peace...

When I said I’d post on Sunday, this wasn’t quite what I had in mind, but it is technically now Sunday where I am…

In summary, Kessler’s proposed disposition are

Kolstrup - hold position and keep doing what you’re doing

Lines - shoot out the searchlight and wait for a medic

Babicevs / Czerny - check out the report of movement around the sangar (with the LOSA commander) then one PC moves to the CP and the other PC and the LOSA commander man the slit trench. The intent is that the PC that moves to the CP links up with Voight so that we have an MG / GL combo.

Voight - as previously discussed

Ferro / Rodriguez - hold position and stand by to repel boarders

Marta - go fetch the medics - 1 x St Mary’s medic to the roof, 1 x St Mary’s medic to the CP (presumes neither are incapacitated)

Grant - we need every hand on deck so if he’s conscious / mobile and can see Kessler wants him at the CP with the St Mary’s medic.

Female LoSA fighter - to Kolstrup if she’ll go

Kaminski - if he’s about Kessler wants the other three RPG rockets fetched from the mortar pit so we have options against the vehicles outside the main gate. If he’s not about / refuses so be it.

Manio - if he can’t see Marta takes her with him. If he can see Kessler will try and persuade him to get back into a fighting position - probably supporting Voight.

LOSA commander - as noted, stays with whichever grenadier does NOT come to the CP.

Kessler - intends to get on the radio to Nowak and ask her if she can organise the Knights of the Vale to crush Ramsay Bolton's troops some reinforcements from friendly militias. (in IC 110 / 114 we set up two ways comms with the sub but they’re only monitoring at certain times, so @Fuse, I need to know when we can make that call)

@All, trying to think all this through, cover everything - and make sure I didn’t use meta knowledge - has taken a while, If I’ve missed anyone (not including Anna - I remembered her but Kessler has no clue where she is) or anything that's been mentioned IC or gone meta, I apologise - if anything needs to be added in let me know. There should be at least one more person at the CP (one of Kaminski's crew) but that was one of the meta things.

Also, if anyone wants their PC to do something else - or can think of better ways to distribute people - just suggest it IC and Kessler will sign off on it.

I'm a bit confused about the sangar situation. The raised portion was blown to pieces. There's LOS from the slit trench to what's left of it. Voight was at its base just moments ago. I'm just not clear on how there could be activity around the sangar without someone being able, right now, to see what is making it. Unless, that is, the sound is coming from inside the building.

-

In reply to Varis Babicevs (msg # 916):

Can't really help with that one I'm afraid. Voight reported it to Kessler as 'movement by the sangar' and recommended follow up if possible so Kessler's just acting on that report.

OOC, I think the most relevant posts are here





Reading that, I think you may be right that the sound is inside the building but like I said, I tried to keep meta stuff out of Kessler's post and I think that would have been meta.

EDIT, sorry, Voight actually said he 'heard something by the sangar', not movement.

OK, I see where you're coming from now. Thanks.

I've been told by Fuse that he's in the sleeping quarters but out of action. Obviously you don't know that as a PC but I'm just letting you know that as a player. As far as I'm aware though he still has a working radio.

Fuse, is any of Walsh's gear still in the BTR? (In particular his rifle).

In reply to Michael Kessler (msg # 920):

Reggie's AK-74 is presumably still in the BRR-80.

In reply to Reggie Grant (msg # 921):

Thanks but I presume that's 5.45(?) and Kessler has a chest rig full of 7.62. Walsh has an AKM (and a GL) so would prefer to find that rather than also have to rummage through Grant's gear to find ammo (that presumes of course that his gear is also in the BTR and not on his person).

In any event, will see what Fuse says.

If I recall, Walsh only came out with his 1911 when we got him into the Krok.  Hanks AKMR was of the 7.62 variety.

In reply to Henry 'Hank' Voight (msg # 923):

Walsh slung his rifle over his shoulder before exiting (IC Msg 554).

And I know the AKMR offered was 7.62. I thought I'd covered off why that was declined IC but to reiterate, we have no clue how much ammo is left in the PK so taking Voight's weapon might have solved one problem by creating another. It makes more sense to me to try and retrieve one from someone who has no current use for it rather than someone who might have a use for it.
