Land-based approach facility stealth assault?

In any case it would be a battle of critical thinking and I refuse to fight an unarmed individual.

Until we get there, then the bombs go off?

I want to avoid air assault. No offense to our pilot, but PW is brutal about this.

Remember that one scene from Enemy at the Gates, The River Crossing to Stalingrad?

Something like that. But this time, we are the commissars.

What about an ambush? Like we get dropped in an abandoned town that a convoy will pass through, and have some time to set up before they do? It'd be really fun if we really didn't know that much about the convoy we're attacking.

Bluh, sickness prevented me posting (and stuff was explained on discord). Still have lots of anxiety appearing as useless regardless though :'( but thanks for the explanation. Still sick but :-[ :'(

This radioman either did, or helped with, the following things:
[...]
- Conceived of, and flawlessly executed, the German hideout infiltration plan. [...]
-Um ._. ok. The wording throws me off but I'm too sick to recall what did who plan. But did this plan thing with Radio.

  • Spent a lot of time watching various people through a sniper scope, and successfully resisted shooting them because they all turned out to be unarmed civilians.  Totally did not spend that time staring at officer ass.
  • Gave Tala a smoke grenade which arguably may have possibly helped with the  breach to some non-negative degree.
  • Shot a very dangerous window and made the building bleed.  Presumably Simon got lucky and hit an artery, so maybe the building bled out after we left.  But I think the building is technically a civvie so don't tell Bone that.
  • Went AWOL to get lunch, and threw a smoke grenade in a toilet in the vain hope that it might delay or confuse police response.
  • Occasionally translated Tala's actions.  ...Wait, Simon didn't do this, hell, Simon didn't understand Tala's orders most of the time.  Uhh.
An ambush sounds fun and interesting.  Frontline combat is okay too, I guess, though I'd prefer that Simon gets the option to act as a scout.

Ed is all for exploding a mountain. Let's go blow up a mountain. Maybe we could test that new experiment they are doing back in New York? The one with all the German scientists?
