Yeah, I thought it was pushing believability a bit that a senior NCO like Plumley would go into combat without carrying a longarm and that the movie was just trying to spice up the narrative a bit, but then again with a guy like Plumley who's going to tell him what to do?

Personally I thought the movie did the book justice. Obviously there's only so much detail you can pack into less than 2 hours of screen time, but I wasn't too disappointed with it.

Photo of an NPC. That would also make a interesting PC.

Coincidence can be amusing? Over on the T2k page on Facebook, someone posted that she played a French TV journalist in Silesia in a T2k game, then I come over here and see this.

journalists can be very useful - most have language skills and make good interrogators to get information out of people without them knowing it - and a real field journalist (as opposed to the equivalent of a REMF - i.e. a news anchor for instance) can keep up quite well with soldiers in the field
