T Hawk- Finish by myself? Not a chance! There is so much going on here that I couldn't possibly...besides the interaction between the writers and the characters makes this the fun part of writing that I enjoy so much. And he's right...you could do it in the last version of the board.

LD- I'm not expecting you to write for John through the city if you don't desire. I'll do it if you like. Since he is supposed to be getting experience I thought it was important for a wounded Amric to let the lad take the lead and advise as they go. That way Amric stays involved, which is important to him due to his concern for his men, and John gets experience.

Damn...I have to go edit my post...

stnylan- I know what you are going to say....I sent Gerd and Oskar out for a reason. Amric would believe that Gerd needs this to allay his doubts and fears about his inability to speak. He firmly believes that you have to get back on the horse when it bucks you off, so to speak.

No problem. T-Hawk's post featured Captain, so I didn't think it would fit if I took the character over in the following post. It gave me a good reason to see things through John's eyes and assess what happened from his POV. It also gave me a chance to lead into Sulyman's retreat.

Well.

I am back from my trip. I go away for a week and come back to all this action. Maybe you just needed me to go off on a trip!!!

I will try and read all this tomorrow and begin posting again.

By the way, my wife is getting close to the "it could happen anytime" stage of her preg so don't be surprised if I drop off the face of the world for a while sometime in the not too distant future.

:D

In all the excitement of taking the gate, I've forgotten all about Jean who was still a captive. Anyway post up on Chen going to look for his missing cavalryman.

Oh, I am actually in the lead in post counts? That's a pleasant surprise. I would have expected Amric to be leading. Haha only goes to show tha amount of time I am spending on the Free Company. No wonder my exams results are going down the drain. :D

Amric - I know it's nothing personal between Jan and Amric, I was just trying to be slightly humorous.

I'll get some posts up soon. However, I will put a warning out that my online time is likely to be very scant the next week.

Can I remind everyone to post the date and time please? It makes it easier for the following poster to remember where the sun should be. ;)

stnylan- Hate to nitpick...but how are Oskar and Gerd going to go to Amric when they are in charge of 50 men going down a parallel street to him? They aren't going to abandon their command are they?

Because, as I hoped to make clear, it was an insert Amric, though I probably ought to have posted here. It happens immediately before they end up talking to Amric. Otherwise there is no explanation of that, and it comes out too pat.

Edit: I have now made in explicitly clear.

stnylan- I've put a little something at the end of my post. Feel free to have Gerd and Oskar talk to Amric...now that he is taking a rest.

Post up, and as advertised, Amric is resting. John Branden is working along without him now...

Amric - I'm sending you a PM

Edit: actually sent you two PMs (character limit) In the second I made a rather silly mistake in getting Oskar and Gerd confused, but I think it ought to be obvious which one I mean.

LD + T_H Also sent a PM each your way.

stnylan- Read them both and responded.

LD- Do you want me to run John and the infantry into a few more Turk resistors, or just leave it alone?

I'm sorry for my poor showing in the book to date gentlemen. This past quarter and especially finals were a little...rough...on me. I think I'm back though, and Ill be trying to bring myy various characters back under some measure of control.

There's probably a few die-hards left, though I'm sure most will have heard that Sulyman has left them to their fate. I'll leave it in your capable hands.

RJ, no problem. This has been a tough time for a lot of us.

stnylan- I'm going to have to think about what to say to Gerd. Although from the PM's we've exchanged we kind of know what will happen...it's getting there that is the problem...I'll work on it.

LD- My capable hands, eh? Okay...I'll get something up to try and wrap up the taking of the city, at least in terms of 'organized' resistance.

Amric - I imagine Gerd will be moping by the gate house where the 'crime' occurred. Oskar probably won't accompany Amric, assuming Amric does decide to talk.

My latest post is an attempt to tidy up most of the action. There are some hooks there. I couldn't resist the chance to let poor Fritz put on airs for a moment. :)

I'll advance the timeline in a day or two. It will likely be by a couple of weeks to allow the next stage of the story to begin.

Nice work on the Nissa scenario everyone. It came out better than I hoped for.

Amric, excellent piece of character development. That explains so much now. Very good work, sir. :cool:
