I can only hope I wasn't totally overshadowed thanks to my own insidious(ly passive-aggressive) master strategy.

Dwarmin walked on resolutely...his supporters thunderous cheering drowning out rational thought like the cry of a child lost at sea. They were marching directly into the malignant heart of the city, to large to ignore this time. He would soon shake the halls of power with his wrath...or so he chose to tell his followers.

Today, at least, bloodshed would not be at his hand-he would let the city respond in the only way they knew how. And then the people would know, who truly commanded the city.

Amazing, not a one noticed him slipping away into a white limo...

Action
Stage a protest march to town hall, non-violent

Good to see you dude, thought you'd forgotten us.

As for your action...

You're peaceful protest in a time of such hostility has earned you the hearts of the people. +1 Respect.

"Hi, I'm Joan Blathworst with a CNN exclusive. After the destruction of Kasemanioan 1st Peacekeeping Force in a naval explosion, the country has continued their non-UN authorized efforts here, landing an unknown number of troops in the area. I'm here with their commander, Captain Reuser. Reuser, why are you here?"


The camera pans to a youngish man in a KBD (Kasemanioan Battle Dress) uniform.

"We've been tasked primarily to ensure the stability of this city to ensure that continued pirate attacks won't happen. We're also looking for information regarding the mine that damaged elements of the 1st Peacekeepers."

A phone rings. Reuser picks it up.

"Excuse me for a second"

"What?! This is live?! dammit."

Reuser grabs the camera.

"I'm afraid that we're going to have to cut."

Here's a little something I dremnt up as I rolled you're turns.(I'm running this on the assumption the first turn is Monday.

This is the Tuesday morning news.

Our top story; 2 religious establishments and an NRA club were attacked last night. The 10 members attending the meeting were massacred, and their weapons taken.
The two religious buildings were a Synagogue and a Buddhist Temple.
The synagogue suffered more casualties, as everyone of the 36 attending the night-time service were killed, most crushed by pieces of rubble, caused by an explosion.
Although the police managed to get to the synagogue, by that time they say the criminals had escaped.
More unusual was the Buddhist Temple, which was placed under police guard due to suspicious behaviour in the surrounding area.
Despite this, these strange attackers got in. They destroyed Temple like they did the Synagogue, killing 20 of the 33 Buddhist meditating at the time.
The only hint left behind is that all buildings attacked had an 'O' spray painted around them the night before the attack.
None of the forces occupying the city have claimed responsibility.

In other news, the leader of the Blue World Orchestra has wooed the hearts of the people by throwing a peaceful protest march all the way to the town hall.

This has been the Tuesday morning news, Good morning.

Press release (considered to be part of my actions):

Kasemanioa would like to ask for a cessation of hostilities in the city. We'd like peace and stability. We would also like to declare that Kasemanioan troops are present in the city and will be doing their best to prevent violence.

I'm taking actions for second turns.

And I've got very bad news; from Thursday onwards I will be gone for three weeks, unless I can find a mobile internet browser. I'm going to a place where I couldn't bring a laptop, for fear of it being stolen. Would an iTouch work for this forum?

Blue World Orchestra's address to the people:

A sad day it is, my brothers and sisters when the blood of the innocent is shed. Alas, such is reality-ever have the forces of evil fought to quench the fire of righteousness. But the coals will always burn anew, in time-for at the center of every man and woman is the strength to topple Gods and Kings. We of the Orchesta stand ready to guard the flame. Will you not stand aside us? Every additional pair of shoulders lessens the burden of all.

As always, remember to pray for peace...and pray for victory.

Quote from: GruffyBears
These are Important things.

Dwarmin: When I said every skill has a base of one, that does not include Propaganda and Recklessness. Those are Special Skills. They only have one level and affect specific aspects of gameplay.

CJ:You forgot a speciality.

Everyone: DETAILED SUPPLY LISTS! Weapons in use no longer count towards supplies,(8 guys with LMG means you have 2 left) everyone needs vehicle stats.

Will do.

Pickup, Jeep and Police car are all in the catergory Civilian Vehicle. They have 13pts and start of with no weapons.
You can purchase a LMG,HMG(at normal prices) or a standard infantry rifle(cost-1pt). To perform an operation a good distance from your base, vehicles must be used. Has the Mild Armour trait (-2 damage from any weapon without the AAR tag).
 
Police Van is a Heavy Civ Vehicle. 16pts. Same weapon scenario as Civ Vehicles. Has Mild Armour.

Armoured Car is a Military Vehicle. 18pts. Starts with LMG. HMG or Rocket Launcher can be purchased. has Med Armour tag(no damage from any weapon without AAr tag. AAr tagged weapons do +1 damage).

Bueno?

You are Liberation Rebels, so you have 3 pickups.
