Allied Forces

Morning

Soldiers of the free world, citizens of Britain and America. Today, gentlemen, we have a golden opportunity to strike at the heart of the German war machine’s scientific establishment. We have learnt of a facility, deeply buried in the Ruhr, that will aide us in out fight against the Nazi’s, and if we are lucky, may even shorten the duration of the war.

This composite command, put together by SHAEF specifically for this mission is comprised of the finest fighting men, and scientific brains, that the Allied forces can muster.

You must enter this facility – which may still be manned by German troops and scientists, hunt for survivors, who must be interrogated, and search for the signs of any intelligence that may be of use to our sides.

Your assignments are as follows.

1: To enter the facility, and recover any scientists and military technical advisors who have survived – They are to be treated as enemies at all times.

2: Fend off any Axis troops present in this facility

3: Map the facility as best as possible

Notes.

Soldiers, we know that the Germans may have caches of ammunition hidden within the facility, when found, this may be distributed amongst yourselves, and used without having to fall-back and reload at your Command Point

Afternoon

It looks like we underestimated the number of German troops and scientists that are in the facility. They appear to have been reinforced, but that makes no odds. Given what we have learnt about this place so far, we must re-double our efforts to recover any items of value to the intelligence services. To this end, we have been ordered to carry out the following:

1: Take a defensible position within the facility and use it as a Command Point for our troops.

2: Take and hold – until relieved, or the facility is demolished – as many of the “strategic pointsâ€Â

When we were a Kingdom it was run by a King
When we were an Empire it was run by an Empress
Now we're a country we're run by a..........

Axis Forces

Axis Briefing

Morning

Soldiers of the Reich, out country is in its darkest hour, with the Allied armies advancing into the Fatherland. You have been chosen, as the most experienced troops in the Wehrmacht and the SS to spearhead our counter attack. But this is not a counter attack in the conventional sense of the term. You have been chosen for something far more demanding than that. We have a secret weapons facility buried in the heart of the Ruhr industrial area. We have lost contact with it, though we do not know whether this is as a result of the Allied area bombing, or due to an accident inside the facility.

You must enter the facility – which may already have been discovered by the Allies, hunt for survivors, who must be interrogated, and search for the missing wunderwaffen that will allow the glorious Reich to turn the tide of this war and emerge as victors.

Your assignments are as follows.

1: To enter the facility, and recover any scientists and military technical advisors who have survived – we do not know what state of mind they are in, and they are to be treated as potential enemies.

2: Fend off any Allied incursions into this facility

3: Map the facility as best as possible

Notes.

Kameraden, we know that there may be caches of ammunition hidden within the facility, when found, this may be distributed amongst yourselves, and used without having to fall-back and reload at your Command Point

Afternoon

Glorious soldiers of the Reich. Der Fuhrer congratulates you for fighting your way into the facility. The intelligence you have provided so far has proved invaluable to the cause of the Third Reich. But our commanders, demanding as ever, want more. They have decreed that the following must be achieved.

1: To take a defensible position within the facility and use it as a Command Point for your troops.

2: To take and hold – until relieved, or the facility is demolished – as many of the “strategic pointsâ€Â

Scientists/NPC's

All day

Avoid all German and Allied troops. If captured, you will be escorted to the relevant German or Allied Command Point. You may be searched (tunic/lab coat pockets only). They will hold you at their CP for 10 minutes, after which you can return to the game zone. If you are armed, you may defend yourselves. When shot, stay where you are until ordered by a player to follow them back to their CP. If the prisoner escorts are shot, use your discretion as to whether you will hang around and be captured by the other team, or whether you will disappear back into the tunnel system. You only have one life, with no medic ability.

Be as difficult to catch as you can. Don’t make their job easy!

**NB**

I've told Andy to be a total git, and to avoid being captured as far as he can.

Pint and a cigar? Beer. With a cigar. Heathen! lol

Sooooooo tempted to pack the brandy and some glasses.

Actually, thanks for the reminder, I better dig out my cigar punch. And some matches.

Er... it appears that the Allies have to:
"4: Capture the Commanding Officer of the Allied intelligence teams. "

Shouldn't be that difficult... ;)

Otherwise it looks great!

I'm crap with PM's. I have pop-ups blocked at work and on my machines at home, so i dont tend to notice the arrival of new messages. I'll bung it in the car.

Ta!

BTW you can usually set your browser to allow popups from certain sites...

It should be fairly safe doing this for this site! ;)
