[AAR] grunting Fallujah
Posted: 2009-09-14 23:51
I don't remember the day (it was in the past week though), I don't remember the server, and I don't remember my squadmates (sadly), but I do remember playing the round that sticks out as the most fun ever for me.
Fallujah starts up, we're US, and there's immediately an insurgent hideout in the NE corner causing all sorts of problems. Our squad is the only one seeming to do anything with it, I have no idea what our IFVs were doing but it took us a good 5min+ to finally clear it, suffering a handful of casualties.
After that was taken care of we started moving west along the north map edge on foot with a hummer alongside, tracking with one other infantry squad or so. The rest of the round consisted of us slowly migrating across the map north blowing caches and generally just mowing down the insurgents.
Our squad was awesome, the medic was spot on constantly, and the surrounding friendly squads didn't do too badly either. I don't think our squad got wiped a single time, and I don't believe I died after the first 5 minutes dealing with the hideout. I was the AR and spent my time mostly on rooftops doing overwatch covering those delicious wide open spaces and just clearing insurgents constantly. If I remember correctly I went 31-2.
tl;dr: Our squad was in the shit from minute 1 and didn't let up the entire round, it was AWESOME. Everyone had a blast.
epilogue: our team did lose the match, I guess we were bleeding tickets heavily on the other front - but honestly it didn't bother us at all since we rocked so hard.
