Ahem!

As ever, please post your thoughts, feedback, screenshots and video here - comrade YouTube Hero SuperU's FA doesn't just produce our video idents, but provides leadership and guidance to propaganda artists. We also have a new YouTube channel that he manages so if you have any content you think should feature then let him know and he will sort you out, for more info check out this thread!; more guidance on video editing for Folk ARPS is provided by comrade Ferrard Carson. Posts in the AAR threads really help us (the hosts and mission makers), both with understanding how we can improve the experiences, and showing potential comrades what our sessions are like.
PS This was what I was listening to throughout Unreachable, using the special, only-available-to-selected-Party-officials mission parameter: Gray's Anatomy Mode - On
Ahem!

Bend - Sabatour Leader
I turn on CC to find out what is taking the convoy so long, hear that its doing a hillside detour, take a look over the top of my sturdy rock and get shot in my squishy face by the BTR
Breakthrough - Bravo 3 AR
Play abandoned due to comical desync and probable vehicular homicide..
Blackfolk down - CO
I give you people lovely colour coded markers and Alpha has some sort of colour blind moment before having an incident with gravity.. Nevermind onward Bravo and Special Forces. My personal transport failed to take off correctly so I was chauffeured to the front line to boost the moralle of the troops with my command pistol. At first I remained behind Bravo but eventually decided to murderarrest the warlord myself. Securing the warlords compound I shot one EI with my M9 and gave another a jolly good splitting headache with a 203 HE. Bravo searched the area and secured it as Special forces secured their captive and returned to extract.
Internecine 3 - Indfor CO
Beware the tower of Moox for that's where he throws grenades from! My plan was relatively simple; have each fireteam A B and C arrayed around covering west to east with squad leads halfway to fallback positions. I myself would take up residence in the minaret and watch our back. As the enemy pushed from the east I flung my frags blowing up IceRaiser perfectly securing eventual victory. I gave the fallback order and then chaos ensued, in future if the enemy would be so kind as to wear an identifying neon health and safety reflective vests that would be most helpful. The remaining enemy contacts became trapped in a small compound south of the minaret, I ate some bullets but was patched up by Penny before returning to fire wildly downing another. Alpha and Bravo had the enemy in its pincers and the last enemy fell
Unreachable - HMG gunner / JIP leader
The party logistics officer is going to get a strong talking to, why he thought a minitripod would be okay to use in Chernarus I'll never know. Draakon and myself set up the gun under fire and I found I couldn't see over the grass and we were promptly shot as Draakon read off a bearing for me to fire. Once in the fresh JIP clone body I waited for my team to fill and then began a glorious charge onto the airfield, sure to blow up things with the backpack full of satchels and mines. Sadly nobody had spotted or mentioned the hillside swarming with very alive EI, I went down to some friendly fire and many others fell around me. Draakon was able to flank the enemy and paid the price at the hangars...
Crash site - Data securing AR
I can't hear anything over the awesome sound of my AR, plus look how many tracers I can riddle that enemy chopper with pewpewpewpewpew, oh we've got the data but our helicopter is goosed, right time to run away. What do you mean I'm the only one left, I best antagonise the enemy before becoming stuck on fence post
Crabfrustration - Commander of invisible marker force 2013
So as it turns out Head broke it, broke it baaad. It also turns out it's really difficult to command when you've no idea where your forces are.. But anyway A3 worked despite Swedish sabotage attempts and showed everyone that we need a lot of practice
Finally I'd like to say thanks to Fer and Bodge for hosting and thanks to everyone that's made it such a great year! I'll see you all in 2014 and don't forget V+ on Friday
