Let me start by, again, welcoming new members, and also thanks to Du2t and Swindle, and other members for being active on our forums. Your input, participation, and all around personalities are welcomed, appreciated, and a pleasure to experience. So, today was an experiment. Trying to implement tactics to fulfill our goal of multi-platoon operations, and the overzealous goal of one day running battalions filled with full companies =D... we decided to make our first attempt at continent domination via inter platoon communication through our TS channel. What a success. On any average day, an assault on The Crown is an expected hour battle. Simple logistics make it an extremely defendable position, with limited access points on the ground, and heavy AA defense on the base. Along with three points to take, and with ever combating surrounding influence, The Crown makes for quite a battle...on most days. NNG took it in less than 20 minutes, with minimal influence! 1st Platoon, headed by Jaamaw, led another impressive tank column into the front of The Crown. Just as they were moving in, 2nd Platoon (me) flies in with a Galaxy for a MAX crash. The effective combination of rebolstered infantry troops mixed with the vehicular dominance that is the NNG tank column, mixed to make the NC not know where to look, and in no time we had pushed them back to thier spawn. They died, and retreated, while the TR made for a counter-attack behind us at Ceres Hydroponics. Due to the impressive level of communication via the TS heads, and from the platoon members, both platoons were extremely informed and readily prepared for each battle they came to. The TR had their sunderers destroyed before they even knew we saw them coming! (Good Job lvloss!) Regretably, I've been having troubles keeping my game from crashing. This is horrible news for me, but rest assured I've been watching all the battles...even ones I'm not logged for! I am impressed, and suspect I will continue to be. Although it saddens me not to be there shooting them with you, it makes me happy to see the success of our outfit, and of all of you. Jaamaw is a good leader, and with him keeping me informed, video footage galore, and information I recieve from these forums, I will be able to continue to make these posts, and to continue making advancements and goals for our ever growing and successful outfit. A couple things I'd like to address: -I will be working towards making sticky threads to organize a little bit more the thoughts, comments, and concerns of our members, and also visiting guests. More on this in the future, and when the idea is a little more organized. LOL -We have officially crested 100 members in game. Excellent! -I will be looking for people who we will ask to run our squads. The process is already underway, but be aware you will be under..."surveillance." Don't worry...we won't pick you if you aren't up to the task =) Squad leaders will be required to be NNG members, so that we can use TS. This is not arguable. You NEED a mic. -Start thinking now about what you are going to focus your certs on. We will be trying to fill specialist squads. (So that we have squads of fully loaded Magriders, instead of just default ones.) -Character Wipes COMING! Be sure to find us again in-game on your own, or post here with your in-game name so we can invite you! Game crashes aside, I had a great time as usual playing with you all. I look forward to seeing more success. I expect it, but don't worry. I've come to learn that we WILL succeed! FOR THE VS! (lol)

Yeah the MAX crash was awesome! I may have missed the landing pad when I jumped from the Galaxy in my MAX suit, but I happened to land on a very unlucky Vanguard and put 4 AV rounds into its ugly behind, and went on to charge up the stairs in the base mowing down 6 or 7 blueberries. I can only imagine the looks on their faces as we came falling out of the sky.
My game froze so I couldnt complete the MAX crash....I got 2 blue MAX suits and 5 blueberries though!
Maybe there's a common issue here, but I've been having semi-consistent crashes now, so it may be a hardware malfunction rather than a software bug. Time will tell. Upgrades are due a anyway =)
I don't know if mines is from the game but Im putting my money on it being my laptop causing the issues. Luckily enough, I can still play for short periods
Yeah, either before they go live, before there is an open beta, or a couple times before then (we still have another continent to test and play on).
