http://www.armedassault.com/william My very first blog Sat, 29 Mar 2008 12:12:54 +0000 http://backend.userland.com/rss092 en Halfway into Bagango we started taking fire from some SLA troops dressed in Royal uniforms. For a moment, I thought we’d been suckered into some horrible trap. Soon enough, though, we figured it out. Our unit was the first to breach the palace. We swept into Torres’s office and found him ... http://www.armedassault.com/william/?p=49 We’ve got Torres cornered in Bagango, but the rat refuses to come out of his hole. He only has a few hours left either way. I hope he spends them screaming orders at people who ignore him. In the meantime, the brass wants us to take down the only other pocket ... http://www.armedassault.com/william/?p=48 The SLA is running like a crack addict on COPS. Everywhere we push, they give way. We’re already setting up a US base in Tandago—which is north of their capital—and from there we’re heading to Eponia. At that point, we’ll have all of Bagango surrounded. You might think that Torres would ... http://www.armedassault.com/william/?p=47 Word is that Prime Minister Torres had been planning his attack since he first heard we’d be training the kingdom’s troops. He’d just planned to launch it once we were all gone, or so his story goes. Some SNAFU. The politicians stepped in then, and it seemed like they were going ... http://www.armedassault.com/william/?p=46 I swear, right up until those Harriers came screaming in over our heads, I thought we were all dead. As it was, most of us already were. The reporter and her cameraman were KIA soon after the shooting started. No matter how much we shouted at them, they kept standing ... http://www.armedassault.com/william/?p=45 We secured the airport, and a reporter showed up on the first flight in. She embedded herself with us, just as we got our orders to roll out. Her name’s Marian Quant, and she can’t have a brain in that pretty head of hers. She hauls her cameraman right up ... http://www.armedassault.com/william/?p=44 The captain’s plan went down like clockwork. We hit them hard and fast, then ducked back into cover again. That took out some of their armor, but they still pressed us back out of Dolores, northwest toward Somato, us playing tag with them the whole way. Word is help is on ... http://www.armedassault.com/william/?p=43 Ortego was a total clusterfuck. The SLA gangbanged us, and I nearly took one right between the eyes. Another three inches to the left, and I’d have gotten a free trip to Arlington. I’d have been in good company. We lost a lot of men there. The SLA took Ortego, and ... http://www.armedassault.com/william/?p=42 That’ll teach me to wish for some excitement. One minute, I’m “patrolling” the beach, the next me and my buddies are racing around the island, dodging bullets, everything FUBARed to hell. The Sahrani Liberation Army hit us hard and fast, and the Royals got caught with their shorts down. We managed ... http://www.armedassault.com/william/?p=41 Just a quick post to let you all know that most of the company has already left, and we're officially out of here. There's something going on in Corazol though, some of our guys called in; something like the Sahrani version of a cat stuck up ... http://www.armedassault.com/william/?p=28
