• FC:Rev3 Pre-Battle Briefing (01/29/12) #03

    As Brotherhood forces secure their border region, they've launched an assault to test the inner region of REDD-controlled territory. Will the Imperial forces stand strong, repel this invasion, and step forward into the border region to retake their lost territory, or shall the Brotherhood secure a forward position with which to end this war early?

    Officer Interviews

    Major UNLUCKY NUM13ER of the REDD forces had the following to say -

    Q: How do you believe the War Effort is going for the Imperials?

    A: I believe that REDD army could be doing better, but we still have plenty of fight left in us. Week 1 REDD only got one win, however during Week 2 we were able to gather 4 wins. We also had many, many tied games and a few very close losses. After reviewing saved films of a few of the games I can say that we know what could have been improved and we have been training hard to prepare for this upcoming Sunday.

    Q: How do the Imperials plan on defeating the Brotherhood this week? What sort of new additions are the Imperials using to counter the Brotherhood, if any?

    A: Well I don't want to give away our battle plans, but all REDD squads should know advantage points to each map and various tactics on how to gain an edge over BLUE. Also Field Marshal Gargoyle, Lieutenant General VerbotenDonkey, and I have all recently completed I Ghosthammer I's METEOR instructor program and will begin to take REDD soldiers through this training operation.

    Q: Do you believe the Imperials can overcome the knock-backs of the War so far? If so, what must they do?

    A: Yes, if you look at the war map you'd see that BLUE only has 2 of our maps and a long ways to go to reach our capital. If we can continue to gain more wins this week and each week after that then the rebels may be in for a nasty suprise when our soldiers are knocking on their capital's doorstep. I believe that if REDD continues to take advantage of all the tools we have at our disposal then we should be just fine.
    Special thanks to Lieutenant General VerbotenDonkey for the interview.
