Alpha CO - AAR
Retrieving the Objective...
After a hydration and sustenance break I gathered my unit together once more, dubbed 3rd & Company ( Jams, Mulli & 3rd ) Along with other Aircross members & misc scattered team members we headed across the dry grassy plains toward the ridge of the ravine.. We had the objectives location and it was time to execute. Green ninja from War had taking position in the field with his classic Mere Cat offensive maneuver. He was popping at a few Bravos that took refuge behind a large tree. 3 man unit started to advance toward the enemies location as Ninja provided superior overwatch. Rayne and I headed a direct steady low B-line toward a large tree that covered our approach. Once at our tree I could see at least 2 Bravos were dead, but had medics. I took aim and started pounding at any enemies firing in our direction, easy hits. We started to take fire from the left, other team members handled the threat quickly.
Jams was not in the best location and wanted to fall back. I said no your OK, Then I was hit, I called for medic, Rayne quickly swept in and had me back in the fight. At that moment Rayne and Jams provided precise semi auto fire on Bravos location, I loaded the Mac-11 and was ready to finish this, with being hit once I had payback on my mind. I got low and moved swiftly to the enemies position, as I rounded their tree cover I was shocked to find a medic healing with his back turned, at nearly point blank I let off a small burst in his back.. Not over yet, I quickly moved forward to another tree Bravo was using, Possibly another medic healing, no time to chat and ask ID.. Put the Mac-11 to his back and yelled drop it, he surrendered and was able to fight another day.. I ran back to our original location to regroup. All bravos in the area were done. Excellent work team.
We made our way down the ravine into the cool shade and followed the path toward the old villager base located on the hill. As we descended into the creek bed 3 to 4 Bravos were taking offensive positions, at the time I was the only one who made it to adequate cover but still very shaky at best and I was still exposed. Immediately I took 2 out, aimed left and took down another, but there was one that was behind a perfect tree, ( 2 large tree's growing together with plenty of cover ) I only had a small "V" to hit him through. This enemy took out my whole team and I was left to fend for myself. After a long heated fogging battle, Ghost says were all dead over here, apparently I didn't hear the enemy call it..
I advance hard right to the fence line and made my way up in the field observing my work passing the downed bravo's.. I'm thinking this is going to be easy, all I have to do is follow the fence line all the way to the objective. As I'm crossing the exposed field, many Bravos to my left are paralleling my position to cut me off.. I move fast to the cover of trees, advancing very close to the objective, a Bravo pops up from a brush pile, I waste him, another comes to his aid and I start popping at him, possibly hit he retreats.. I kneel down and scan the sectors for field movement, nothing, but I know the other bravos shadowing me would be very close.
I turn to the left and my rival is there, the infamous Black Ghost.. We've had many encounters on the field of battle and is more than a worthy opponent, this will be no different. We start our exchange, from a pretty good distance. Were back and forth with my DMR I'm only allowed semi, he's running auto, I have to take a steady aim single shot under a hail of projectiles. This went on for several minutes, we would switch from left to right trying to outsmart each other in an airsoft chess match. I'm trying to anticipate when and were he will expose him self and already have a round in route while avoiding his swarm.
After more minutes pass another long range auto firing bravo steps in the fight, I am now in serious trouble, they have me covered from the right and left, if another one advances hard right from the field I'm done. I cant see where the new bravo is firing from, so I have to put my focus back on Ghost. As I do I catch him advancing closer to another tree, I step out exposed and try to take him down, he fires back I cover, no wins here.. More Bravo advance on me as I'm being surrounded, I can hear them now yelling loud to there team as to my location. My team members keep trying to get to my aid but are killed by the villager base multiple times. If I can get Ghost I have a chance, we start popping semi autos at each other, I feel the squeeze coming as I'm taking fire from multiple locations, I pull the Mac-11 out to load in case of a close threat, at that moment my fear is a reality, a bravo made his way over the field and sprayed into me, I swing left to cover and I am caught by Ghost, simultaneously taking fire from 3 positions, I call hit multiple times and the battle is over..
Way to go Bravo.. This kill was a high priority for them. As Ghost walks away he says, it took five of us to take you down, I guess that's a consolation prize for my diligence but being only 15 or 20 feet from my object was no comfort..
More to come..
