Re: OVER THERE! Great!
Yes sir I had been waiting to see this...
I loved the action scenes...altho i was a little dismayed by the obvious cliches...
The combat vet sarge is great, the leiutenant is an idiot.
giving stupid orders, the captain kinda realizes the Leiutenant is an idiot and sides with the sarge.
I thought they kinda cliched the womens roles too.
how about you?

Re: OVER THERE! Great!
Hmm this is a quandry. Over at SZO, a poster made such a scathing report of the show, that I think it could be nominated, as the worst crud to come out on media in years.
But, considering my views on your views Bill, I have to wonder, if the other chap was being a bit over the top.

Re: OVER THERE! Great!
Saw one epidsode of the show, where one guy shot a woman. I've no experience with shooting women in battle but I thought they dramatized what he must have gone through pretty well. And they did a damning critique of the media in the process, which my USMC Capt. cousin who was in Iraq with Force Recon seemed to agree with.
As for the scenario, I will always recommend it for brand new players because of its scale. IMHO, its the perfect introduction to movement, suppression, rallying, control, etc.

Re: OVER THERE! Great!
Well, thank you gentlemen! It can work well for a newbie, but has enough challenge for the more experienced.
It plays quickly and the fire and move can work well for basic tactics.
Uh, oh! Ms B went down. You're gonna lose some, no doubt.
Thanks for the comments. They are much appreciated. We'll try to do some more of these small quick play engagements.

Re: OVER THERE! Great!
I come to SPMBT from the WWII based games, which makes me realize that I'm from the "Rock 'Em Sock 'Em Robots" school of combat.....now that I'm playing a USMC Viet Nam campaign, I realize that this is not neccesarily the best route to take.....
Smoke rounds! I thought they were pointless!
