Hello...

Hello, I am new to the Morrow Project, but I have a basic idea of how it works. But right now, I have a few questions.

As you know, Natehale1971, you have developed what became known as a "Combined Operations Group." I was just wondering - what are the positions on the Support Team (The team that goes by the prefix ST [Not MS] in the Combined Operations Group)? And of all the teams that there are, how many of each position are there? I was just curious.

I know that this isn't the Combined Operations Group thread, but I thought it would be necessary to note that because of its relations to the material of this thread. I would really appreciate it if you could help me. Thanks!

your welcome... it was okay. i just really miss my boys. Jack loved getting to see a prade when he first woke up, and seeing fireworks before he went to bed. I got to talk with the boys on the phone, but it doesnt messure to the point of getting to hold them in my arms.

the COG was suppose to be the localized area to organize the MP efforts to rebuild. to act as a core of specialized and trained people who would direct or train the local peoples on how to do the kinds of jobs and carry out the kinds of duties that would be necessary for reconstruction..

Hello...

I'm glad it was OK Natehale1971. I hope you get to see your boys soon.

Anyway, thanks again for clarifying about the COG. It's a rather interesting concept the Morrow Project is. I really appreciate it for its setting, and its unique point of view to the world. It makes for good stories. But thanks guys! I really appreciate it.

thank you.. i hope so too. as soon as i can get the money scrapped together to go, i will be. and your welcome. I decided to show that there was an actual organizational structure for the project to do their job.

And with the idea of a UPS/FedEX type company to act as a cover for the logicistical network would make it all the more feasible for pulling off something as massive as the project without it ever getting out.

Hello...

Hey, it's me. I have one more question pertaining to teams if you are interested. I was wondering about the Operations Teams (Not the Psychological Operations Teams) - that is it's makeup, like we discussed for the Logistics & Supply and Support Teams. Do you have a personnel roster for the Operations Teams, including plural positions, like with the L&S and Support Teams? I was just wondering. Well you take care now guys. I'm currently waiting for a couple of Morrow Project books as we speak!

Default Morrow Teams I have been part of

Most of the time, I have been/played (?) a soft science type in a Recon team.

Examples:
1) Librarian on a Recon Team sent to salvage the library at Un. of Fl. That mission went up in FLAMES....
2) First Contact Specialist on a Recon Team in Kansas. We actually managed to stay alive in that one.
3) The most fun though was when I was part of the Frozen Chosen. Yup, I was in the Reserves. The only difference in our game, versus Last Watch by Timeline, was we had a full load out. We typically had light smg's. I carried an Uzi load. We were awakened by a team that LITTORALLY stumbled upon us. They had opened a supply chache and some one in Morrow Command had left a short note to explore a nearby cave..... Guess where we were??!!?? I was a computer geek in that scenario. did not have much use for my training, but Lord did we have fun....

I had always looked at Frozen Watch Teams as a 'incase of emergency break glass' kind of group... Each of the COGs have a Frozen Watch bunker that contains the cadre of replacement personnel who would be used as the 'core' of a replacement team. If a team was 'wiped-out' because of disease or combat, the COG could replace the personnel with these volunteers. Of course it would only be a new Team Leader, Deputy Team Leader and Communications Specialist (the three team members with all the specialty security levels) who would be responsible for training local volunteers to fill out the rest of the team.

The Forozen Watch facility would be a pretty big bolthole/bunker... These boltholes have the cyrotubes and emergency medical facilities, and would be located in a central area of the COG near the headquarters (if not located in the headquarters).

Default FW Campaign

TO answer your questions:

1) There were six of us FW. 5 had the #9 uzi, 1 had the #18 M10 with HK68A
2) No Vehicles. Nada. We were dependant upon the finding group's transportation.
3) We were armed like we were for two reasons.
a) Since we were all generalists, we had to fit into ANY team or group.
b) The guys who were in the FW LIKED the uzi load.
4) We were reserves for a specific reason. Our TL was trusted with one of MP's most guarded secret. More on that in a moment.
5) We were found by a Recon unit, operating in SW Kansas. They were NOT expecting us!!!!! They opened a supply cache...and amidst the boxes of stuff was a note addressed to the TL.... OPEN NOW!!!! That letter led the team to our little cave....and presto....five more warm bodies....and one very nervous TL on our side.....

Upon awakening and general backslaping all around, or TL got with the finding TL for a quick briefing. Once he heard the situation, (Typical SNAFU...no Prime, MANY years too late....etc) he turned to me, and in the most serious voice I ever heard from him..

"Mike, fire up your computer, please."

"Sure, Boss...One moment...Online...What do you want?"

"Type AW91WT..."

At this, another FW guy spoke...like he was in a trance...

"Q6BP1A....."

And a third guy spoke...This was getting weird....

"3Y0ZE2....Press Enter"

My little laptop considered this amalgam of letters and numbers.....it beeped and displayed some very disturbing news...

"UHHH, Boss, I think this is for you..."

"I'm sure it is..." My TL turned to the other TL....

"Jack...everyone....you all know that we were supposed to contact Prime Base on emergance. Jack told me what has happened..."(LONG Pause)

"Ladies and gentlemen...I now have the co-ordinates for Prime Base Beta...
We are going to go there and try and figure out what happened to Alpha, and if what happened is what I think happened, we are going to start to fix it."

You guessed it....We were the ultimate backup plan...If things had gone as they were supposed to, my TL would never have started the code sequence. The other guys were in a deep seated hypnotic trance, triggered by the first part of the code. They had no idea they had part of the code.

It took us three weeks to get to where we had to go...a very simple corn silo in the middle of a Nebraska field....

It took us two months of VERY slow work to get into and explore Prime Beta....

But more on that later.....

I'm pretty familiar with HK and their line of weapons but I am not sure what a 68A is, can you enlighten me Mike.
That definitely sounds like this campaign got even more interesting as you dug deeper.
I like the fact that you started out with the bone bare basics and still carried out your mission. I like those kind of challenges.
Do tell us more

Do tell us more

Sorry Stoner63, I mistyped. It was the HK69A1 40 mm grenade launcher.

The scenario WAS very taxing. there were a total of eleven of us. 5 recon's and 6 fw's. The GM didn't give us ANYTHING for free....We had to write down EVERYTHING we carried into Prime Beta...Why? He made us account for all of our water, food, etc.... It was good that the Recon team had just found a cache... Their TL was wondering why there were four ration packs and numerous five liter water bladders...That was for all of us to use..

Just getting INTO Prime Beta was a chore...the entrance way had to be found...then dug out...then the door had three card slots. One for any team member..one for the Recon TL and one for our TL...But figuring out which card went where took a little time.

Once we opened Prime Beta, we had to make choices. How many went in? With what? Did any one stay "on top" as security? Who and what did they have?

Basically, eight of us went into Prime Beta with our LBE's, pistols, pistol ammo, coveralls, boots, M1 CBR, Medkit, compass, generator flashlight, AN/PRC-68 commo gear, backpacks, cooking kit, bedroll, 50 meters of rope, and as much food and water as we could carry. We had two SN/TVS-5 infa-red binoculars and four batteries...The hope being we could find power supplies in three hundred eighty four hours...sixteen days...not QUITE the endurance of our batteries....otherwise we would have to evacuate and re-think...

EVERYTHING else stayed "On top" with the three security folks (read NPC's). They had ALL of our long arms, grenades, the rest of our ammo, plenty of food and water,
the V-150 APC, and all of the other "toys" that Morrow Teams tend to accumulate. The guys "on top" had orders to hold the entrance from a distance of 500 Meters...and if they could not hold their strong point, they were to drive AWAY>>>>slow enough to draw any unfriendlies.

Meanwhile, WE would "close and lock the door." Yeah, unfriendlies might find the entrance..and then be faced with two METERS of case hardened steel..and three card slots...at the bottom of a six foot deep hole. Did I mention that the door opened IN???

Our TL was in charge. Basically we were to stay close together, No one more than one hundred meters away from anyone else. No one wondering off to "See what was over THERE". We were not expecting trouble....but....

More later.

Ah, the HK 69...the sawed-off M-79 that should've been ! One of my favorites, a good choice !
I like the sound of your GM or Project Director, sounds like he did a lot of work on the campaign and wasn't letting too much slide. It can be hard on the players but can also bring out the best in everyone's imaginations.

You better believe he thought it out. He had been running a campaign with the two guys and two ladies of the recon team. They had done well in various situations. Then here come four more people who know Morrow Project and want to join in the fun...

As I remember what he said: "I was trying to think up a new direction for the Recon team. I set up some scenarios and rolled some percentile dice....I'll be damned if they didn't come up "00". And on my list, 00 ment Prime Base...Well I could not think of a way to get the team from the Mid-West to Nevada...Then I remember something out of TM1-1. One of the playtests HAD a second Prime Base...Sooo I built Prime Base Beta...in Nebraska."

And we were the "lucky" souls who had to find it. Then we had to keep it until we could get enough surviving Morrow Personnel into the area to properly man the thing...I mean we needed to find over two hundred people who could try to get the Morrow Project back on line...

I later read the module Prime Base. I am glad our GM did NOT include Phoenix!!! We had ENOUGH trouble with searching the base, then finding staffers, then finding other teams to act as bodyguard, then find and KILL Krell...(We failed MISERABLY in that...) We certainly could have used their skills in putting a cap into Krell's forehead...So we had to do the dirty work ourselves...We SADLY underestimated the deviousness of our GM...We found out MUCH later that Krell not only had freeze technology...he had cloning tech as well...it seems the Krell had at least two younger "brothers"....

Wow ! That GM had his ducks in a row and had the experience to make you suffer from every wrong move !
How did you find other MP personnel ? More notes or did hack something up on your deck from someplace.
My Krell info is weak and all of my MP stuff is in storage could you give me a Krell brief.
I am getting ready for a long range campaign via e-mail or something and was wondering if you had and updated info that would help.
Been ages since I had the Ol' TM-11 in front of me !

TO answer your questions:

1) We found the other Morrow personnel by bringing up the P.B.B. computers and looking for them. We needed weeks of work just to figure out how the damn things worked. (They did not run Windows, Mac, or Linux...some wierd combination therof...We called MOS...Morrow Operating System.)
2)Krell: THere are several theories on Krell.
a) He was a madman who happened onto a Morrow bolthole, figured everything out and started from there.
b) He was a disgruntled Morrow person. There is a mention of an employee being fired from Morrow because he had the idea that Prime Base Alpha should be in the old atomic test grounds in southern Nevada.
c) He was an evangilistic minister that went over the edge when he somehow found out that Morrow existed. He had PROOF that TEOTWAWKI was coming and we mortal humans were going to try to do something about it. Hence the religious overtones to Krell propaganda. (This is from one of the GM's I played with...and my personal favorite!!)

If you need another warm body for your E-mail game, please consider a slighly crazed Irishman..(With a last name of O'Donnell, I gots to be crazy??!!??)

Our games always had Krell as being one of the people on the Council for Tomorrow, and the Protoge of Bruce E. morrow himself. Thus the reason why he knew SO MUCH about the Morrow Project, its goals, it's personnel and it's assets. We had done alot of things about the Warriors of Krell (i'll post the pictures of the Krell flag/banner when i get the chance), and I'll probly start a thread of Warriors of Krell info as soon as i find the files...

The Krell empire had the following social strata...

Krell and his 'Imperial Family'
The Royal Families: Krell Krell's lieutenants and their families. This is composed of Krell's most trusted inner circle that has been with Krell since before TEOTWAWKI. they are royality in the Krell Empire, and swear oaths of loyality to Krell.
The Noble families: These are middle management and administrators of Krell's empire.
The gentry: these are citizens of the Empire... the merchants and low-level mangers of the empire.
Slaves/Serfs (includes the harem of concubines he keeps.. some of the women in the harem never actually saw him since he slept through the entire time they where in the herem)

Mike,
There's always room for one more the way I see it but it may be a while before it gets going. Waiting for my package in the mail as it stands myself.
When I know more I will pass it on and I guess an Irishman can fight next to a Sicilian as long as were both shooting in the same direction !! LOL

Nate,
That's some good info. I would enjoy seeing that in a briefing packet format with some of that excellent artwork of yours !
In another thread we were talking MP uniforms and personal gear. I had the idea of having some photos taken of MP operators in action so to speak. A kind mock-umentary photo series.
I figure that there would be some necessary documentation done by MP field personnel for Higher.
Any suggestions ?
