April 16 - Escort Mission
« on: 17 April 2015, 09:36:10 PM »
Mira sidled up to the corner of the Conex container, Steyr hugged to her heaving chest.

On a better day, it’d be a look worth lingering over. Today wasn’t one of those days.







From last night's game. More at the blog.

Thanks. Straight forward scenario. Matt was especially pleased by the traitor plot-twist. Viktor ended up the MVP, pummeling a number of baddies onto the pavement, including Yurchenko himself. It was a good session, and it seems my latest gaming comrades are getting into it.

I'm glad you liked it. And flattered - that's quite a compliment, IMO.

And not one I would use lightly, but your writing definitely tweaks the old Bill Gibson gland and deserves the comparison. The line I quoted is tight man!

Love the actual AARs too. I always drop by Stalker7 when I can. You do near future games like no-one else.  :D
