Hi All
awaiting confirmation from gunman as per squad size(i think its 15) and that we can choose our squads. But assuming we can what does everyone think of a CiA squad? I've taken the list of whose booked in and will butcher it around to form up a squad(or two). will also put those who im not sure are CiA posters in a section at the bottom for them to confirm.
Also theres several roles for people in the squad so volunteers would be good at this point. Please point out if I've missed anyone off the list

cool well if they dont mind we dont mind
oh also if you could all sound off with what guns you plan to bring etc that'd be helpful so we can see whose got what etc. Also please mention any kit you have spare that you can lend out on a bend it/mend it basis

DDay unit: will be in hbt trousers and a m41 badged up as rangers
Weapons: Thompson, winchester trench gun, m10 revolver
Role Preference: dont mind. Enjoyed medic. engineer sounds interested. not bothered at all.
As a note for roles if it is a 15 man squad 2 medics would be most useful as a minimum and as I understand it the leutenant is to be provided by gunman staff

Board Handle: Barrie and Anne
DDay Unit: US Infantry/Rangers
Weapons: 2 no. M14s
Role Preference Barrie: GI

Edited as someone else has chosen medic so I'll be a GI.
I nominate Rhys.
And Anne seconds that.
thanks barrie and anne if everyone else is in agreement I dont mind doing it.
marked you as a medic Barrie as more than one cannot hurt. aside from these 2 engineers wouldnt hurt either so feel free if you fancy it guys. ideally we need to double up on the different roles incase of casualties. Wotan proved how useful the medics were. the use of barrie and later myself kept alot of people on the line so to speak
I'll be in Airborne kit with a Thompson, (if it's fixed), or an MP40.
I'll do whatever is required of me.
What do the engineers do? I studied engineering at uni, but unless I have to build a road/bridge it's probably not much use...
6. Engineer
Begins with 600rds
Can use any pyro!
Can set charges and defuse bombs!
The Engineer can use a Bazooka to take out enemy vehicles! and can repair damaged vehicles in the field by waiting with the vehicle for 5 Minutes per hit taken until all the hits are fully repaired and the vehicle will become active again. Vehicles can also be repaired at a CP. If the vehicle is capture from the enemy, the magnetic Allied star or German Cross must be change to the current controllers emblem.
aka blow shit up well volunteered tom
aka blow shit up
Please mommy, can I play with the big toys?
one pack of tnt for tom on the double!
Funnily enough the Land Rover came with a replica pack of comp b.
Do I get given a bazooka or do I bring my own?!
if you have your own it worries me a little... hehe im sure one will be provided
if you have your own it worries me a little... hehe im sure one will be provided
I haven't, yet ...
yet? oh lord sounds like your definetly the man for the engineers job. if we get provided a lt by gunman i'll do it too instead of the lt job. sounds like fun.
Anne will be an engineer if required, she wants to roll out some electric cable whilst under fire. Plus, if those bangalore torpedos aren't working she'll "goddam make em work" and get promoted to lieutenant shortly before tragically getting shot...
lol Barrie ok duely noted for Anne.
If its anything like wotan It'll be me being crazy that gets her shot. just ask her about our advance up the corridor with nothing but her m14 to supress the germans who had the protection of a big steel doorway. still cant believe I made it to that room unscathed. And how calm she was as we were slowly walking totally exposed up the corridor shoulder to shoulder with her firing to keep their heads down.

Ahah yer dont think they will have defences that big there tho, il make sure not to drop my rifle and end up having to run back across the beach to get it.
