boggle, the guy who was working on the tfac died, and he kinda damaged a siege cannon in the process. Then he left his guts struen across the floor, walls, cieling, etc. I gave xect full permission to reenter me into the RPG however he wants.

oh damn, unconsious again... I seem to have a habit of doing that... Hopefully either terran or one of the other RPG guys kills that last mech in the dock, *crosses fingers*. Good luck, I'll be cheering you all on unconsious like ^^.
no problem xect, I have stuff that needs attention this weekend anyway, once the first rolls around, everything should be cleared up.
mean while, I'll be a male cheerleader: "Go team GO! Kill those mechs! We're from the fighting guardpost, we've come to save the day, but because of certain problems, our armors' full of pee! GOOOO AG!" or something really bad like that.
