  • Do You Want to Play a Game?

    I know that many of you are extremely well informed but I for one wasn't aware of this incident.

    When I read the title of the thread the first thing that came to my mind was WOPR.

      I love how NEACP took off, completely forgetting the president...

        Could be a feature not a bug. Sending one of the Marine One helos (presumable on alert 24/7) from Quantico to the White House, then back to Andrews is time you don't have when SHTF.

        Put the NECAP/NAOC and Marine One in the air ASAP, with the former heading west to an undisclosed airport less vulnerable to SLBM/SLCMs and the later stopping for POTUS then heading to meet the NEACAP. NEACAP does tracks until POTUS lands, then it does a combat landing, grabs the POTUS, then back in the air. It doesn't touch the ground again until all the food and water is gone thanks to mid-air refueling.

        Andrews, Quantico, Washington, it's all fair game in a suprise attack. Ferrying people back and forth between sites you are know are going to be hit is stupid.

          Does anyone else appreciate how apropos it is seeing a post by "DAMOCLES" in this thread XD

          I read the article... and now have 5 tabs open spawned from it, doing a little write-up for my company's security and tech guys. A little light reading we can pawn off as work time.

          If/when I run a T2k game again (T_T), I just might use this as the cause. Nice find!

            A strange game. The only winning move is not to play...
            "The use of force is always an answer to problems. Whether or not it's a satisfactory answer depends on a number of things, not least the personality of the person making the determination. Force isn't an attractive answer, though. I would not be true to myself or to the people I served with in 1970 if I did not make that realization clear."
