Aww c'mon guys. We've seen enough bad blood on this forum. I think it would be a good idea to keep personal antagonistic comments to PMs. Then the rest of us can stay blissfully unaware of it. This forum is one of the places I retreat to when the rest of my little patch of the world is getting me down. I don't want posts here getting me down as well.

Lets all try to be cool and get along huh?

So James dropped off the face of the earth before because of petting bitching? Lovely, has he done so again because of it? I'll say it plain, that is chickenshit on the part of the snipers. Mods, that's unsat.

LAW0306 - am I correct that the game you're setting up is "Twilight: 2013, Escape from Kosovo" on RPOL.net? Assuming that I'm right I've read some of your stuff already and the game looks very interesting and detailed.

Either way I'm interested in knowing more about your game but as someone who is British and who's military experience is nothing more than Army Cadets as a teenager I'm not sure how a version of myself is feasible as a player character?

Ah - ok - thanks for correcting me.

They both mention the same NG unit so I made an (incorrect) assumption.

I have no idea what JROTC entails, but as a former Air Cadet, it's best described as being similar to a Scout group but supported by the military.
For example, as an Air Cadet I learnt about principles of flight, had the opportunity to fly light aircraft and gliders provided by the RAF at Air Experience Flights and Volunteer Gliding Schools, undertook leadership and instructional courses run by the Army and RAF to teach other cadets, learnt fieldcraft, did lots of sports, shot with Lee Enfields rechambered to .22 and the 5.56mm L98A1 (a bolt action version of the L85, lacking flash suppressor and with a different set of iron sights), and basically just played soldiers from the age of 13 to 18.

The websites for the three main cadet groups are here:
http://www.armycadets.com/home/
http://www.raf.mod.uk/aircadets/
http://seacadets.ms-sc.org/

The different services give different levels of support to the cadet organisations, but all recognise that they are an excellent recruiting tool and help to raise awareness of the military among young people, as well as present it in a positive light.

I've always wondered, what is a "Cadet" in the British use of the word? It sounds kind of like Junior ROTC in the US.
