Title: Grenadier Squad Task: Thar she blows! Post by: Erik Arkay/Evinyatar on June 13, 2006, 11:09:36 am My beloved Grenadiers! There is need for your ability. With the landattached Islands of Vesper captured, we have succeeded in cutting off the Garrisons from supplies. In order to keep the Loyalists from launching an attack on them from land, I want you to go out with a squad containing guardsmen and as many Grenadiers as you can muster. You will attempt to blow up all bridges between Yew and Altmere. Don't leave a single one standing so pack plenty of explosives!
Task: * Blow up all bridges between Yew and Altmere * All guardsmen may attend * Ensure as many Grenadiers as possible attend * A full report will be attached to this thread Title: Re: Grenadier Squad Task: Thar she blows! Post by: Erik Arkay/Evinyatar on June 14, 2006, 09:24:58 am After the Grenadiers secured the last man standing event of Kado's Training, the Grenadier spirit was high. We decided to complete the Grenadier Task and blow up the bridges out of Yew. A very fine group of guardsmen assembled at the Barracks. We not only had the luxury of 3 Grenadiers leading the troops, but also two Dragoons who could scout the roads ahead.

Khaelieth had some remarks about wether or not we were on the right side of the bridge, but I ensured him we had everything well in order. A few minutes later we blew the bridge up and happily continued our way west.On route to the Yewish bridges (http://img149.imageshack.us/img149/6756/firstbridge7vz.jpg) The group stealthily made their way through Yewish territory to their last objective. They met almost no threat along the way and all guardposts seemed deserted. It seems that the Loyalists have rallied all men to Vesper in a desperate attempt to hold it firmly in their grasp. Arriving at the second bridge I was not going to make the same mistake like last time. This time we would stay on the other side of the bridge! Guardsmen unable to head back east? (http://img149.imageshack.us/img149/1350/secondbridge9xk.jpg) After watching the bridge disappear into the waves some men now seemed to wonder how on earth we were to get back. Now that both bridges were burnt and the squad was located in between we found ourselves in a pickle.Guardsmen now unable to head west? (http://img149.imageshack.us/img149/4678/home4rx.jpg) After wandering about aimlessly, some men shooting evil glances at me, we found our way out! One of those antholes! Surely if they're all interlinked we can find the one not far from Minoc?How on earth will they get home? (http://img149.imageshack.us/img149/4852/hole6dc.jpg) So here you have it, both bridges blown and a safe though slightly delayed return! Victory for the Grenadiers!Guardsmen make their way back home through the tunnels Attendance: Led by: Erik Arkay Joey Lanai Vincent Valentine Olchaffa Serpernt Hoagie Vlad Mela Khaelieth Title: Re: Grenadier Squad Task: Thar she blows!
