  1. Will units such as the Rangers make an appearance in the 3rd module?

    With Shock Force (SF) Battlefront pointed out that Special Forces (SF... oh wait, never mind) were not in the scope of the game, however commandos and rangers where not that far removed from normal small unit tactics that they could easily opperate within BN. Im not asking for cliff climbing animations for point du hoc but the ability for some historical and fictional "raiding" and so forth would be damn interesting.

    I’m not breaking any SecOps here, as its got a big red and white sign “TA Centre’ pointing at it and it’s address freely given on the internet, so 204 Bty Drill Hall is currently located at Kingston Park, a trading estate in the north of Newcastle. Google 204 bty – loads of info available

    Not only do they have the gall to allow a pipe band to squawk on interminably, they also wear that brown hat with the red hackle (looks like a red budgie has kamikazed into a pork pie) and the SNCO’s and Ruperts used to wear Tartan Trews as Barracks Dress, disgraceful behaviour for English Sergeants of Artillery! (although understandable for h’officers.)

    Ahh yes thats a bit silly on my part. One of my best friends from uni at the minute is a Blyth lass. I suffer the Anti Tartan-Kilt-bagpipes-anything scottish slant on a regular basis, not that i should talk as my parents are from the 'Boro!!

  3. Bagpipes? good god NO!

    As a Northen Englishman who has often to listen to that noise pollution that some call 'stirring music' I must cast my vote in for the Nay! party.

    Before you colonials step up to the plate to defend the cat stranglers, please note that I often have to put up with these 'objects' in the main street of my home town (often drowning out the sweet notes of the Northumbrian smallpipes), and to really add insult to injury, one of the batteries of the Territorial Army Arty Regt. I was a member for for 20 years was '204 bty - The Tyneside Scottish'.

    And yes, they had a flaming pipe band.

    So no thanks.

    Where abouts in Tyneside?
