DEBREIF: Overall, the Marines did an excellent job at taking the feild. During the taking of the helicopters however, the rebels did an excellent job of keeping the Marines at bay and intially capturing all of the supplies. Although casualties were high on both sides. The Marines won the Op at the end, taking the town that the All Quirka were operating from. The downside was that the leader, Muhammed Fraggle Jihad, escaped capture and is still at large.
We had some complications. Got started a little late, a number of people had gun malfunctions throughout the day, and there were a few episodes of people not calling thier hits or getting hit after they already called out. But overall, people seemed to be having a good time and keeping thier professionalism and tempers intact. So a big round of applause to you all.
I'd also like to give the most honorable player award to Gixser. He was standing in an open field, trading fire with another guy and decided to let himself get killed since it seemed kinda silly at that point. Had they been real weapons, they'd have easily killed each other 10 times over.
I'd like to say thank you first and foremost to everyone who came out. All of you made it a very successful day. We had a load of toys that were delivered to the Marines, so I'd say job well done to you all.
A special thanks goes out to our Phoenix brethern who made the drive down. It wouldn't have been near as much fun without you guys.
I'd also like to thank Jungle Toy for helping spur intrest, as well as providing part of our raffle prizes.
A big HUGE round of applause to Warlock who helped in getting the bigger raffle prizes (the VSR-10 and the Glock).
Finally, a big thanks also goes to Dan and Don at the Sudden Impact field for making sure we got the field time required to perform the missions.
Thanks again to everyone and TAC is already in the planning stages for Red Sleigh Down 2. It should be bigger and better than this years.
