Briefing

OFFICE OF THE MEKK COMMANDER -- Col. Cary Griffin

This is a priority one message: SOC intelligence has placed massive Cardassian forces on nine planets along the Cardassian border. These planets are Pollack, Nivoch, Solosos, Dorvan 5, Dorvan, Valo, Quatal, Valon, and Salva. These planets are vital for trade and the Maquis way of life. The Cardassians seek to stop us at all cost.

The Labor Day Offensive

This is your chance to get involved with some good old fashion fun. I have 9 planets all together, two of which will be played out by me and FCOL Easterly, MFS Impetuous.

The rules of the game are this:

  • The offensive will last from 1700 hrs CDT on Friday August 29th 2008 and continue throughout Monday evening at 2200 hrs CDT.
  • The offensive will be played by Mechwarrior, PS2, or any kind of combat game for PS2, X-BOX, ect. Or if you don’t have either you can play with water guns I don't care. Just play and get active in this!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
  • Every commander is to give daily reports of the battles. BUT!!!! The game play must be real, you must keep account of all losses, deaths of your characters, and all kills of the enemies.


So if you want to play this great battle, contact the list and give an E-mail address to contact you. Also as Mekk Commander I will give all who participate a MEKK BATTLE RIBBON [MFI OPS NOTE 2009--This is still in-work due to personnel changes. The eventual ribbon may NOT be a MEKK ribbon.] So let’s get together, have some fun, and kick some Cardassian tail.

Friendly forces (on the right side of the map) were in full retreat ).

Designers Notes

We tried to throw in all the monkey wrenches we could think of to add the confusion of war into the scenario. Mis-drops, logistics hang-ups, ect. The thing that hurt the 544th the most was that the other players have learned well from their teacher. The tactics and maneuvers that some of my shipmates used were truly genius, and almost cost me (the 544th) the war.

I had wanted to post maps and detailed briefs on the worlds in question, real life kept that from happening. All in all, I think this scenario went well. Hopefully we can have another say next year?
