I don't really have a lot of great battle stories for the first half of the day. Although a lot of the Villagers were engaged in battle right off the bat, I was trying to just watch and see where and if we should jump in. Eventually Alpha started playing hard ball demanding we remove our mags while walking through the field. And trying to play the part of the Villager,of course I said no. So they started fallowing us around with there guns on us. Eventually someone fired a shot on me and it was go time. Sorry Dom, but that is why we took your front line out of the game at the upper captured respawn. It took five of us only 30 seconds to take the respawn under control. A few min afterwards we noticed Bravo moving in from the west, so we opened fire on them too. Sorry guys, but it's Villager land, and we wanted it back. LOL
Not to long after that I got a radio call from Bravo HQ saying that the Villagers were not playing fair, and that people were getting mad. Remember now that the Villagers were the rightful owner of the property in the story line, and wanted both of the teams off there land. So being the nice guy that I am, I decided to disband the group and split them between Alpha and Bravo. Bad call there Bravo, that is what led to your HQ demise. As my now full Aircross team were re entering the field WAR showed up, and we knew it time to (get er done)... By time we reached Alpha HQ it was being over run by my new foes Bravo from the lower creek, to the upper open field. So we jumped in and started to push. Slowly property was regained, and before long we were sitting at Bravo HQ. I got to shoot a couple former Villagers there (Revolution) and was having a great time, until someone standing amongst the dead unloaded full auto right into my face. To whomever that was, you almost got me riled up enough for a good old scuffle. Anyways before long Bravo HQ was done, and the only thing to do was reset the teams.
After the reset, I decided to put the Villagers back into play. The game was going nowhere with no one to drop objectives, and direct the traffic. So with much smaller group of Villagers we strapped an objective to Black Ghost and called in the grid location. Took a while, but eventually we were getting hit by a small squad of Alpha and Bravo from both sides. Lesson learned here is next time to have this type of objective timed. And to be honest guys, we could have used our medics in there, but decided to cut you guys some slack. Recondo I think is who eventually got the objective, although I am not 100% if the name is correct.
Shortly after that as we are regrouping at our HQ, a small squad of Bravo rolls up asking where they could put there trash, then safety kills most of us. To bad you guys didn't heal us and take us as hostages, could have been some nice points right there. Looking back on this, we would have never allowed anyone to walk up to our base had it been somewhere else. Our HQ was setup at an entrance and exit point, and there were guys in and out constantly throughout out the game. But still it was a lesson learned.
As the day faded into the night, so did the battles between the two factions. I think the last fought over objective was dropped around midnight at the creek. So we decided it was time to see what kind of force both Bravo and Alpha had combined. The plan was to have both XOs and a guard meet a pair of Villagers at two separate locations, then capture both of them and bring them both back to Villager HQ. That was to be your rescue mission guys. But Alpha CO said he wanted to cease objective or a while. This blatant disrespect was all it took for the Villager to get back into combat mode and attack the Alpha HQ.
So we set off for Alpha base. Sneaking through the woods, trying to be quiet. Only to find that nearly everyone was asleep when we got there. So we just started shooting tents. Eventually they came out and put up a decent fight against the seven of us. Although our goal was never to take over there HQ, but more so to make sure they wasn't gonna get any sleep. After we got through there we decided to hit Bravo.
After making it to Bravo HQ we found nothing, except some hot coffee, and some claymores. We decided to camp there for a while and wait on Bravos return, as we could here them in the distance fighting against Alpha. but after 30 min or so, my guys were falling asleep so we dipped out. but not before setting the claymore up at the entrance of the HQ. All of the Villagers decided to head to the campfire for some heat except myself. I wanted a fight. So I headed back toward Alpha, only to find Bravo CO heading back out of bounds with a dead rag on. So I waited for a while... About 20 min later four more Bravo rolled up on me with NVG, and although I was just laying on the grass out in the open they never saw me. Hmmmm, really? You guys were literally three feet from me. I sat and watched them also walk out toward the safe zone.
Being frustrated by this time I went back over to Bravo HQ and sat. Some 20 min goes by and three Bravo along with a captured Dom comes walking by. One of them asked me what I was doing, my response (I m waiting for someone). lol. I was waiting for you CO. In time the Bravo CO does come walking along with his kill rag on, so I fallow to HQ. Of course when I get there he says, oh ny the way, I have not respawned yet. LOL Silly goose, your trickery by having two of your three kills before respawn - taken by your own guys before entering the field, has put you number one on my hit list. You have actually made number 1.
Not to long after that (4:30-5:00am) I get a call saying that BOTH COs had called a cease fire, and would resume battle at a later time. I was like (what the crap) how can you resume battle at a later time? This is a 24 hour game. For those of you who don't know, The Villagers didn't come prepared to sleep, nap, hang in a tent, or drink coffee. So we brought no supplies for several hours of down time. And that is pretty much how the game ended. Oh yeah I almost forgot. Sunday morning, as we are sitting by the safe zone camp fire, someone starts talking about how they should go and zip tie Dom while he is sleeping. Diesel then gets his truck, goes down and picks up all his supplies and gear. Upon his return to the safe zone, we all loaded into his truck to see this go down. Dom was good sport though, and didn't say anything about them coming in and using zip ties on him.
And just for the record, and to ease any minds that are wondering. i would have given the points to Bravo for that capture had Diesel not entered the field form the safe zone area. I know we talked after that went down about the points, but I was running on no sleep. If I had given the points then that would allow any player to exit the field wherever he wanted and then re enter wherever he feels like it.
)...I could tell that guy was thinking WTF!? lol I wish he would have said something if he thought I was cheating...I would have cleared it up for him. Ah well...
