It is a beautiful game, and no release date is set yet, so that, I believe, is a good thing. <p><div align="center"><embed width="250" height="200" src="http://www.theta_mercenaries.homestead.com/files/sphat.swf"></div><p align=center><font color=#ff0000>Why Do I Always Die?!?!?!?!</font></p></p><i></i>

I have been looking into the game a little more, and read some of the FAQ. We can have the Alliance in the game, and have each Tribe/Clan have a Squad (10 people) and all squads will be a part of an Outfit (the Alliance).<br><br>In Each Squad there will be a designated leader who will earn the most Command Experiance (CEP) and the rest will just have Battle Experiance (BEP). These leaders will get together either in game or on a designated forum to discuss tactics, targets, recource deployments, and so on.<br><br>I also suggest we also share monetary resources in game to help support players that may not get as many missions as the others. This way if one squad runs into a loosing streak and needs new supplies, the other squads can support them financily and by sending reinforcements to their possitions.<br><br>Another idea is to have a combination Squad that does 'Deep Strikes'. They will go behind enemy lines, either by foot, land vehicle, or dropshipped behind the line, and then search out enemy troops moving alone or convoys transfering resources from one base to another. This squad will be all alone, with no chance of a mid mission rescue from the other squads.<br><br>The individual targets will be designated by the squad leader, who has the final word on what targets get hit. If the squad has to abandon the mission, they must split up and dissapear into the enemy lands and then find their own way back to a designated pickup point.<br><br>The composition of the 'Deep Strike' Squad will change depending on what the mission is, but it will always have these in it: Leader, 2 Snipers, Hacker/Pilot, Pyro. The Snipers will also double as scouts, the Hacker/Pilot will steal any vehicle deemed required to complete the mission, and the Pyro will be the carrier of all high explosives used for demolition of targets.<br><br>That is all of the ideas that I will put down in this post. <p><b><u>-LoS-TimberWolf</u></b><sub>vehicle specilist</sub><p><img src="http://65.108.58.179/image_upload/Mech3.jpg" align=left><hr>Click <a href="http://ngal.fateback.com">here</a> for wierd creatures.<p><p>"Don't Drink And Drive, Get High And Fly Home" said by Neckhole<p>"To Love A Woman Is To Know Heaven And Hell Personaly" Don't Recal Who Said This<p><hr></p><i></i>

You're really into this, eh? Now tell me, how, exactly, do I get my wife to go along with this plan of ours? She'll be fine with letting me buy the game, but how do I convince her to let me Play with a monthly fee? <p><div align="center"><embed width="250" height="200" src="http://www.theta_mercenaries.homestead.com/files/sphat.swf"></div><p align=center><font color=#ff0000>Why Do I Always Die?!?!?!?!</font></p></p><i></i>

Just tell her that as long as you are playing this game, you will not buy any other game. And also make sure you take her out on a date every other week so that it appears that because of the game you are giving her better attention. <p><b><u>-LoS-TimberWolf</u></b><sub>vehicle specilist</sub><p><img src="http://65.108.58.179/image_upload/Mech3.jpg" align=left><hr>Click <a href="http://ngal.fateback.com">here</a> for wierd creatures.<p><p>"Don't Drink And Drive, Get High And Fly Home" said by Neckhole<p>"To Love A Woman Is To Know Heaven And Hell Personaly" Don't Recal Who Said This<p><hr></p><i></i>

Then buy them through a thrid party, such as a friend or nieghbor. By doing so you could just tell you wife that you are paying them for something mondane, and then have them bring over the game as if its their own for you to 'barrow' it. Instead of taking it back one day, they can just say they forgot they left it there and got another copy so you can keep it, when in reallity you had already paid them for that quietly.<br><br><br><img src="http://planetside.station.sony.com/scre ... e-Army.jpg"> <p><b><u>-LoS-TimberWolf</u></b><sub>vehicle specilist</sub><p><img src="http://65.108.58.179/image_upload/Mech3.jpg" align=left><hr>Click <a href="http://ngal.fateback.com">here</a> for wierd creatures.<p><p>"Don't Drink And Drive, Get High And Fly Home" said by Neckhole<p>"To Love A Woman Is To Know Heaven And Hell Personaly" Don't Recal Who Said This<p><hr></p><i>Edited by: <A HREF=http://pub3.ezboard.com/ulostimberwolf. ... berWolf</A> at: 8/7/02 2:21:13 pm<br></i>

I, personaly, would like to see a squad dedicated to vehicle operations. But after my experience with T2 and trying to make that happen, I think it would be better to just have a selected person in each squad to be the vehicle specilist.<br><br>After I posted the message, I continued looking on the PS website and found that pic. It would be awsome if we could actualy get a group together to make a battalian like that of tanks, escorts, dropships, and ground pounders. <p><b><u>-LoS-TimberWolf</u></b><sub>vehicle specilist</sub><p><img src="http://65.108.58.179/image_upload/Mech3.jpg" align=left><hr>Click <a href="http://ngal.fateback.com">here</a> for wierd creatures.<p><p>"Don't Drink And Drive, Get High And Fly Home" said by Neckhole<p>"To Love A Woman Is To Know Heaven And Hell Personaly" Don't Recal Who Said This<p><hr></p><i></i>

In WWII my squad ::SG:: had a Luftwaffe group there were about 40 guys in it..<br><br>On rogerwilco my tuner you could switch over to Luft channel and request air support of bombing and it would happen almost any time of the day... Almost like in a real theater.. Request air support and they respond like there up there on call.<br><br> <p><img src=http://www.geocities.com/livesforlife/P ... </p><i></i>

this is the best i could do using paint to replicate a pic i made one day when i was bored in math class on my TI 83+ using all mathematical equations. i thought it was cool and that i would save it to use one day if i had the chance. i sorta wonder if it could be used as a logo for the alliance.<br><br><!--EZCODE IMAGE START--><img src="http://groups.msn.com/_Secure/0QwAHAEsY ... <!--EZCODE IMAGE END--><br><br>any photoshop freaks out there who want to take the image and run with the idea? dress it up a little? <p></p><i></i>
