The discussion of the Alien series of films and the props used in them is the aim, but if it's got Big Bugs and Big Guns, then they are welcome too!

Still trying to track down a floor plan for the hotel so we can do some route planning, but in the mean time, let's get a roster started for this. Ya'll know the drill - please copy the previous post and add your name to it. I will also need volunteers for "Squad Leaders", who will need to be present for the dry run before the sweep itself. We need people in each squad who know the route.

1. Outcry27
2.

Clarification: Are you asking everyone who is going to participate to sign in, or for the aforementioned squad leaders to volunteer by signing in?

I dont mind doing a little recon work with a dry run before the big show.

If a big list of people start piling up wanting to be squad leaders, I'll defer to a veteran. But if I can be of use then I will put in the extra time.

Thanks
Terran

Clarification on how many people want to participate. It will help us plan it to know how many people want in. If it ends up being like 20-30 people, then obviously we're going to need to split up into different squads.

I'll have my stuff from last year. Not totally decided if I'm going to bring my armor or just use my flak vest. So will have my Lt stuff.

If you guy can work out the timing, I may be able to take photos. A colony sweep is meaningless without an embedded combat journalist.

Sorry for the lack of update - I worked something like 80 hours last week between civilian life and the reserves. Updating now! :delta:

We currently have 12 signed up here, including two Xenos. I'm sure they're will be some who missed the thread, but either way that's a damn near ideal number.
