  • 29th -31st JANUARY : Season 6 is nigh !! S06E01 !! "BLOODSTORM ASSASSIN"

    Everybody knows that a good show never really runs more than 6 season -seven tops..

    (Who the hell said this was a good show anyways ..)

    It is time to set a date for SEASON 6 EPISODE 1 guys .

    I would like it in January - but I am open for suggestions.

    Here is a recap of the events of the last session of 2009:

    The party is embroiled in a deadly firefight that sees some crucial NPC personell as KIAs , and damn near buries one or possibly two of the PCs too. Heroic -and not so heroic - efforts all around ensure that everyone walks out of there alive and leave heaps of dead NDP and smouldering tank wrecks to testify of the madness in crossing the party .

    A 48 hour rest and reorganization is in order and the battallion takes up a position not far from the Free City of Orland ,CA. The locals are cautious and allow no support to be shown for the Eureka column lest -they fear reprisals from the dreaded rapid response forces of the NDP .But they are greatly impressed that the party has taken out Deputy Agent Johan and his troops of die hard NDP cadre.

    The Free City of Orland states had a coordinator -rather than a leader as it is composed of former personell from many factions in a loose confederation - and she has taken quite a liking to the international mega star
    that is the Iron Man Post Apocalyptic RoadShow 2019 Tour . After some liasoining followed by some fraternization it is made clear that the city will support the partys forces on the condition that they venture further south and relieve the city of Kettleman -well inside NDP controlled areas -a city that has risen against NDP openly and is not on the fence like 95 % of the rest of the population are .

    The party is denied the chance to recruit troops ,but a single combat contest is held and the winner gets the job as Iron Mans personal assistant.

    Upon approach of Kettleman,the party find dead and dying in ones,twos and small groups littering the road .Soon they fins out why there are so many dead.Kettleman is a burnt out husk ,everyone and everything inside is dead .A crater of app 100 meters across sits in the dead center of the walled city .One hit has killed everyone ,including those in the well prepared and dug in firing positions around the still standing city palisades.

    The party retreat and call it in -geiger counters buzzing .A haggard looking major from WillisCommand arrives a few hours later via helicopter and delivere staggering news. The NDP has revealed their secret weapon at last -it is a 203mm howitzer with Neutron bomb shells. Because of this ,NDP is advancing rapidly as The Unified Eureka forces cannot concentrate for fear of being nuked .

    The enemy has one weakness though ,the weapon is so powerful that the LEADER ( Haussmann) has decided to split it into separate compartments .The gun is one place ,the ammo another.That way he think he has safeguarded himself against treason .WillisCo has -through undisclosed means - obtained intel on the location of the cache of neutron bomb shells.

    It is situated in the batural fortress of SHANDON ,CA ,not far from /ca.20 KM EAST of ATASCADERO ,CA.

    These weapons are supposedly a development of the W-33 artillery shell .

    More about the effects can be read here :


    The party decided to turn to unconventional tactics to try to infiltrate the position rather than attack all out with all available forces .The battallion cmdr assembles a die hard crew and orders the rest of the force to run diversionary attacks against targets of opportunity some 20-50 km to the North and South and East of Shandon . This draws several companies out of the position to support outposts and convoys outside the NDP perimeters.

    In the mean time Iron Man attempts to infiltrate overtly as a spy in the stream of refugees and manages to slip into SHANDON .Inside he discovers that everyone is processed through checkpoints and taken West towards ATASCADERO for unknown reasons .He then hides in the rotting cornfields for hours ,NDP guards constantly patrolling around him.

    The others,General Pain,DeCorba,Cowboy-Tex and Takashi sneak through the lines under the nose of the guards during the night .
    Disturbing events take place during this stealth mission as it is revealed that General Pain believes he has paranormal powers and that he can control his surroundings with this.Madness or not , the party makes their way to the bunker entrance and link up with the unarmed Iron Man in his rags .

    They then assault the gates and storm the bunker under the cover of a pre planned air raid from EUREKA .It is soon revealed ,however that the bunker is part of an extensive fortification and that finding the nukes will not be straightforward.Soon an alarm is sounded and fierce firefights with the fanatical NDP cadres inside the bunker erupt .

    The session ends with the party killing a squad of NDP guards that try storm them in brutal HtH combat with assaultrifles in close quarters .The party is in control of a section of the bunker ,but trouble is brewing. There are still NDP survivors inside the bunker ,and Takashi who advances ahead of the party runs up an access ramp only to see -- --

    DU-DA-DUUUUUUH!!!

    (scary music )

    lets set a date folks

    Anything goes

    I'll be in Thailand until 13th of Jan.
    After that everything goes, I guess.

    I would also nominate Mr. DeCorbas cabin in the countyside as the optimal location.

      have a good trip -remember if all the animals flee -run in the same direction and buy bottled water on the way !

      DeCorbas cabin is a good choice.

      Everybody - go kill something we can cook on teh occasion!

        S06E01 January 2010

        I nominate one of the following weekends in January for consideration :

        friday 15 -17
        friday 22-24
        friday 29 -31

        DeCorba has said that he will consider applications for his house to be used.

        I am thinking we stick to tradition and make a hefty feast from game or fowl this time too.

        Chime in guys - I know Sanchez is game already .Who else is up for it

        edit: just bought 2 kg deer and 1 kg marrow bones of deer for the caserole.

          side note to S06E01

          reciepes welcome .

          the meat is caseroll type -grytekj,tt av hjort -

          if you find anything you like post your suggestion or PM it .

          I found a seemingly simple and possibly delicious reciepe at viltslakteri.no -its gryte no II when you scroll down.

          We shall be needing a nice red for that - something to balance the stout and rich sauce with all its cream and butter .

          I think I will go so far as to say that a nice starter and dessert would be good too .

          suggestions

              Just let us know which date is good for every single one of you -ASAP.
              It would seem that General Pain and Sanchez both can make it 28 of January.

              The rest of you - please chime in so I can arrange with my bosses and buy tickets.

              I dont like it when people are a long time in waiting to reply on these requests.

                Jan 29 - Jan 31!

                It seems that three of us can make it the 29th -31

                Pain
                Sanchez
                Hq.

                If another date is more convenient for a higher attendance, lets hear it guys !

                I havent heard anything from the others so I cant rightly say wether or not they are in or out - but I am counting them out as long as no reply is given .

                Sadly this means that we do not have confirmation on DeCorbas place in the woods - but I understand that we do have confirmation from Gen Pain in the Somali-mugger-infested-no-go zone.

                So I suggest that we set up a plan B with Gen Pains pad as the location for 29-31 of January .

                Those not in attendance will be played as NPCs ( yes..the NPCs tend to not last very long ..) and will get a short recap of the session at their first attendance after .

                Pain - Sanchez please confirm .

                Anyone else please chime in .

                    regarding session

                    I'm afraid I can't join if the session is another place than mine own...No offense to DeCorba or anyone else..,but it seems that I can't guarantee that I do not have the dog or have to work that saturday,so pr.date I cannot say any else.

                    Anyway I am now in the weatherbeaten south norway enjoying my first day of Xmas Holliday.

                      Date for next sessions - NEW DATES WANTED !!!!

                      There seem to be a few small problems with the dates I suggested.

                      So far only Sanchez has confirmed - that is alot -but not enough .

                      I hereby ask for all players to post their preferred dates for next session and we can continue discussions to find a date from there .

                      As always -I prefer to know as soon as possible to make this fit with work,at home ,the army and ticket prices etc .

                      And of course - I want everyone there for this one .

                      It will be a biggie.

                        29th -31 Is fine with me. You're all more than welcome at my rustic homestead should it suit the discerning tastes of the majority. I am after all semi-democratic.
                        As for Gen.Pains avoidance of arranging specific dates regarding the neurotic dog.. Suppose the session was to take place in another part of the country entirely, what would you do then Perhaps... well, just fix it.
                        Sincerely,

                        Fieldmarshal DeCorba

                              I and I is alive

                              I'll be joining the session.

                              After battling my way through the dark portals of Odder,ya, and by hand beating down the ghost of overtime and service orders, I have only the remaining obstacle of rsavslutning to keep me from joining you in this first instance of the glorious and most honored tradition of HQ's T2K campaign special: Fear and Loathing on the Campaign Trial, season 6.

                              I have to leave, briefly, for a dinner on Saturday, but I'll return in force later in the evening. After having discussed the matter with deCorba and General Pain, it's been decided to move the event to the generals Grotto, in Old City, Oslo.
                              If You're In A Fair Fight, You Didn't Plan It Properly.
                              I don't carry a gun in case I get in a gun fight. I carry a gun because I don't want to miss the opportunity to get in a gun fight.
