Title: Circuit Training - 02/07/2007 Post by: Arma Renox on July 02, 2007, 10:02:46 pm 2nd July 2007: 9pm GMT
In attendance: Hoagie - Dragoon Sergeant John Dell - Regular Guardsman Desmond Krieger - Junior Guardsman Belakor - Guardsman Recruit Dareneneth - Guardsman Recruit This eve' saw a Circuit Training session to announce the resurrection of the Navy, train the Marine applicants, and keep the other guardsman in 'ship shape' (harr!). The premise was simple: to recreate the hectic environment of combat and sailing in stormy weather and the heat of battle at sea! First, to create the swaying motions, poor visibility, difficulty to see and hear (and perhaps sickness too!), came one vital ingredient: alcohol!

Stage 2: Shift the heavy... er.. "rock", to show strength! Stage 3: Light and put out the lantern, as you would onboard a vessel, even in a storm, a battle at night, or to put it out if sailing in stealth! Stage 4: Practice aim, explosives handling, defence and endurance in chaotic combat! Each stage was to be repeated over and over, until only one man was left standing! Extra elements included "attacking vessel" missile fire, and desperate hand to hand brawling in close combat to inspire inventiveness when resources are depleted!
