Meanwhile, APOC and LONEPIG had crossed over to the centre of the land and tried to look from a hillock to the Plateau, only to find the recent growth had blocked LOS. Moving downhill they carefully checked out the bottom corner. No sign of CHARLIE around the pillbox, Bear's bunker or foxholes. PAXO rejoined the game and radioed back to base; the co-ordinates of the ALPHA flag. Giving a co-ordinate accurate to 10m, they scored the 3 points and then chose another TASK. Only able to pick FIELDCRAFT, they set about making a new bunker. It had to be at least 20m from another bunker's position and could be worth upto 3 points. Siting the bunker on the top ridge, it would cover upto the fenceline and the area around the TAG ZONE. Paxo and Razer set up their bivie by the top fence under a overhanging tree. While Chopper moved into an old bunker above the plateau. Upon completion, they radioed in the Bunker's co-ordinates and awaited scoring by the MARSHALS. After a look they were awarded 2 points. Settling down they kept up a vigil in all directions, thanks to Striker, Chopper, Paxo and Axeman. |

ALPHA were still busy on the Recce task and reinforced their Recce Team with MANTIS. Moving to the west fence line, they began to move uphill slowly. Seeing movement, they knew CHARLIE's camp had to be up there. yet still needed a fix on the flag to score the points. Closing in they moved closer to the sentries. Chopper was sat covering this area and something caught his eye. Radioing in, he asked for a second opinion. Striker and Dodger came over to take a look. Indeed it had been movement and APOC opened up from close by. Scattering for cover CHARLIE began to return fire. Chopper's M1 jammed so he dropped onto his MP5K then his APS. Knowing they were outgunned, the ALPHA recce bugged out downhill with APOC laying down some good cover, forcing RAZER back. |
2 of TMA joined the Game: WRAITH and SPECTRE, but found the pre-arranged radio channel did not exist (4:44). After a long effort, they finally managed to sort out a rendezvous and join their team mates @ the Gorse bushes. Alpha Recce returned to base and radioed in Co-ordintes for the CHARLIE flag. Guessing the flag was uphill, they gave an incorrect reference and failled to score any points. Needing to score, they asked for another TASK. ATTACK and DEPLOY were offered, so they chose DEPLOY. Lonepig, Napoleon and TANK would hang back and guard the flag, while rest moved off with the TAG POLE. Deciding to place it in a good position to attack, they headed uphill. Moving along the countours of the fern fields, they reached the treeline near Sniper Alley. |
CHARLIE decided to send out a perimeter patrol, with STRIKER, CHOPPER and PAXO dispatched. Moving east, they reached Sniper Alley and were just about to head downhill, when Chopper spotted movement. Dodger came upto reinforce PAXO as Chopper and Striker withdrew. Getting above the ALPHA team they crawled in. Spectre had seen them and told APOC to plant the TAG ZONE quick. Once ready they were trying to sort out a grid reference, when PAXO opened up from 50m uphill. He had 3 targets all grouped up but his pellets fell short. Wraith returned fire, hitting PAXO, while MANTIS flanked. Dodger also opened up, but MANTIS took him out. |
