Thanks Rick and Bill for putting on a great game. I really liked the 15 minute respawn time, as I think it was followed more closely than the 3 or 5 man respawn. Someone mentioned though that it would be good to have the 15 intervals staggered by the teams, and that might make the already great idea better.
I was on the Hamas BM team with SOTA, and I wanted to say thanks to Mike for letting me run with your top-notch squad. I really enjoyed it! But, I do want to say to everyone else that is complaining that you didn't know what side the BM teams were on and that you were getting shot by them. If that is the case, you either didn't read the player handbooks before the event, or you weren't instructed by your CO properly. We were there to make deals and sell arms to both sides. That means since we are making deals with your CO, you really didn't want to shoot us, and that is why we weren't shooting you. You wanted to keep the relationship strong, and so did we. As you will notice, we (Hamas BM) did not engage you, as we were only trying to engage the other BM team. With that said, I can't tell you how many times were walking along, and we all of the sudden got lit up by some dudes hiding in the trees that didn't look to see who they were shooting before pulling the trigger. Now I understand that there were a couple of occasions that orders were given to take us out at various time during the day, but one time we were on our way to make a deal with Darius, and on out way there, his own guys took us out so the deal didn't get done. Don't you think that these deals could have helped out that team, and who knows, maybe the game wouldn't have been so one sided. Target identification is an importantant thing to consder, especially when there are a total of four teams on the field. We were easliy distinguished, wearing khaki pants with OD softshells, and all of us had this look except for our BM who was in a suit.
Well, just my thoughts in regards to people not knowing how the BM teams worked. But all in all, a good game. Sorry to see that it ended up so one sided though. Even the admins tried to persuade the BMs to take a side and even the fight!
