OPS CHEETAH UPDATE 1.0

+++++Encoding....[DECRYPTED]+++++

Security Clearance: Black (Eyes Only)
Message Transmission: 0956 hours to Team 7 QRF (en route to DZ) - URGENT!!!
Transmission Station: Zulu Foxtrot Bravo

MISSION UPDATE:

In addition to retrieval and recovery of the [CLASSIFIED], Team 7 is now required to conduct further operations in Sector Red Dynasty. Intel reports that high-value targets will also be involved in attempting to recover the [CLASSIFIED]. Secondary objective during this mission will be to eliminate said target once the tango has been identified. Field teams are now gathering the data and will transmit the intel to your location. Decryption password is GOTUS*CKA. Tertiary objective is to bring down enemy listening station. Target location can be identified by the weather balloon attached to the position.

While Operation Cheetah's primary objective has been to recover the [CLASSIFIED], we have also received a high-level communique that Forward Base 13 just across the border has been overrun by insurgent forces. After the completion of your primary mission, proceed to the adjacent Sector to secure a rallying point for our retreating forces. Hold the position for at least 5 minutes so that inbound air support can zero on your position to achieve aerial superiority to allow evac aircraft into the area.

Godspeed.

So much for the flavour text. Here's the briefing:

SCENARIO 1: Retrieval and Recovery

1. Two teams. Roughly even numbers.
2. Each team member must recover one cone from the centre of the field and bring it back to their start point.
3. Stage 1 completed once all cones have been recovered.
4. After cones have been recovered, team must shoot balloon on opposite side.
5. Stage 2 completed once balloon has burst. Mission completed.
6. Other rules in effect: MEDIC! (see previous post), SNIPER (see below)

SCENARIO 2: Fly the Flag

1. Two teams. Roughly even numbers.
2. Two flags in centre of the field.
3. Teams must move forward, recover the flag in their own side and bring it to a designated point where they must raise it. They have to fly the flag for at least 5 minutes to complete the mission. If the flag goes down (because the members holding it have been hit), then the count starts again from zero.
4. Other rules in effect: SNIPER, ROGUE TEAM (see below)

RULES

• SNIPER - One person on each team is designated the Target. The other team must score at least one confirmed hit on the Target in order to complete the mission. Can be done anytime during the mission. But unless the Target is hit, the mission cannot be completed.
• ROGUE TEAM - One small group (maybe 3-4 persons) can be designated the ROGUE TEAM. They set up somewhere in the middle of the field and have no mission objective. They can shoot at either side to complicate the main mission for the other two teams. However, each ROGUE TEAM member has only one "life" and must leave the play area after they are hit. The other teams can respawn as per normal.

PREPARATION (Need volunteers)

• Balloons, with the sticks to support them
• Masking tape (2 rolls)
• Marker pen
• Flags (pieces of cloth will do) on flagpoles
• Sports Cones (at least one for each player)

Cheers!
