Sorry for missing the post last week. I ended up getting my actual PC back for the first time in a long time and was catching up on a serious backlog in Manga and Anime.
Well, the Wednesday night began with starting out doing several multiplayer maps on the LAN to warm up. We had Courtney, Nicholas, Bethany, Michael, Brittany, George, Joe, and myself. It was pretty much all of us versus the computer.
The first map, was mainly everyone but Joe and I while we patched our BF2142 to version 1.2. Courtney was starting off as her usual self, and killed Nick about 3 times before she realized that blue/green named people who sneak up on you are actually friends trying to back you up. Bethany and George were terrorizing in any mech they found and Michael was still learning the mechanics of the game, and driving! They did a great job running around and capturing flags, but Courtney and Nick ended up jumping off building tops and dying more often than capturing flags. This eventually led to a lose on their side to the computer.
The second map, which was the one with EU at the bottom, with a mech and PAC up the hill with 3 other flags and a church near the EU flag; was run on by all of us. Joe and I did a large amount of regaining lost flags, especially our Command Center spot. Courtney enjoyed her first time as Commander and learned the mechanics of the position. We helped her help us, which was REALLY! needed those first few 100 tickets, cause Courtney and Nick were still doing their roof diving. The main issue was everytime we ran into a mech, NOONE was an engineer, so we improvised a few ways of killing them and keeping the mech. I held the buidling between the road block flag and the command center while we mounted a counter assault. This happened after Joe and I were taking back the Command Center flag and the other two flags were lost to a swarm of EU units. Bethany, our commander, had even died. As soon as she spawned, I found her a hiding spot and we went into full defend for the first few minutes back in, the computer even dropped two orbital strikes on us before trying to climb the hill without a mech. We did win all three rounds of that map.
The third map was the map with a bridge in the middle and helicopter/jets at each end. Joe and I hovered over the end of the bridge and rained hell on all who approached, with the EU helicopter. Michael flew around in our copter and we kept air superiority for awhile. We won the first round about 5 minutes after it started. The second round, Joe flew while I gunned. Sadly, he tried a fly threw the bridge, bounced 3 times and we exploded. Bethany grabbed the mech by the inner bridge lock and George was running around with the hover tank. Courtney was Bethany's top gunner and Nicholas was hopping about with the jeep. The second round lasted longer and we won it too. The third was the longest yet, were Joe and I stayed out of the skies for most of it and I took up the Commander. I dropped several EMP strikes on their Mech while George was in our Mech holding the outer bridge lock. We waited while Brittany and Courtney took two tanks around the back side of the final EU flag point and took the flag. There was one EU guy left we couldn't find for a while. I ended up running him over near the outer bridge lock thinking he was a teammate :-x. LOL. Great times.
Everyone got online for a bit but it ended being time to go for most of the gamers. Brittney, Michael, Courtney, and Nicholas. Bethany and George and I started a quick round for AoE 3 but didn't last too long before her mom came in.
