OUT OF GAME: Well he didn't know.

Out of Game: That is why I asked him if he knew or not.

"Good luck in your battles, I would try to work as fast as you could and providing you with accurate intel, we are also sending one hundred and forty mass produced Gawin-class Mobile Suits with "natural" pilots ( normal humans ), it is brand new from our labs, we want to test them under combat environment" Shogun said over the holoprojector, Shogun smiled faintly and said, "We will also be sending over 50 ESSCPA-class "Shinobi" exoskeleton armor, we won't be able to pledge our forces, but we can provide logistical support, we will be also sending top-grade turrets and mines,"

Shogun then returned to his task,

Meanwhile.....

"Land right there in that crater," said the Xenturian commander in orbit around Mars. They are going to build a fortress there.

Out of Game: I am not the one at Earth, I am in the shipyard at Delta working on the brain analysis.

OOG: No offense shogun, but the mobile suits really....arent helpful. The problem is that guerrilla warfare limits you to using manpower. Essentially, in order to fight a guerrilla war, you have to tie your arms together. I can't use mobile suits because they are just too big, even if I could camoflauge them, the enemy could simply track them on the return trip to the base. That's why I'm going with the nanosuits, they are man sized suits that can bring in some serious firepower in a moments notice and with temporary stealth and invisibility there is almost nothing they can't infiltrate. I would prefer if you could take them with you, because other than cannabalization for parts, I honestly cannot use them. Save them for the invasion. But out of curiosity, what are the "exo skeletons"?

[Shogun]

Out of Game: They are all going to die, that is the way I planned it, it have stealth capabilities as well. I am using the MS to engage the enemy ships and heavy armor. You are not using them, I am

[Omega133]

OUT OF GAME: Guerilla means cheap and clandestine.

[Shogun]

Out of Game: Cheap part.....not necessarily, but clandestine, definitely. Minimal forces to cause maximum damage I suggest we fight the guerrilla war after we loses the battle for earth, any thoughts?

OOC: What I mean is, that unless you use them right now, I cannot use them for guerrilla warfare, if you use them now, okay.

OOC: Wasn't that the plan? Or am I getting ahead of my self. Okay ignore what I just said. Im all in

OUT OF GAME: Guerilla means cheap and clandestine.

no, actually the more expensive and higher quality the equipment the better. Actually, if you guys want to learn about guerrilla tactics play the game crysis that has the nanosuit, you figure out just how the idea of having small forces overwhelm large ones work. Chaos is your weapon, fear your tool, the gun is simply your execution weapon.

It is not, it is very good anti-armor and anti-ship.

There are different types of guerrilla warfare, there is Special Operations, which usually use the very best equipment, and the Insurgents that uses cheap stuff because they can't afford the expensive gear.

If you want to learn about Guerilla warfare, play Freedom Fighters. It's a game about the Russians taking over America. You're a New Yorker fighting against them. Your base is in the sewers and you have very few members to help you fight. Oh, and you use what you find to fight. Similiar to the Viet-Cong of the Vietnam War.

[Omega133]

"Sir, minor damage to the shields. Slight damage to weapons deck one, two, and five. The engines are being turned off we'll reroute the leftover power to the shields."

Out of Game: Play Command and Conqure: Red Alert III, it is a very good real time strategy game. If you want to learn to fight guerrilla as a commander, it is good, but it is all RTS, no first person controls, and don't use numbers if you want to learn to fight guerrilla wars, it is a bit futuristic though, but it is fun, I love to surgical bomb valuable targets and carpet bomb their army ( I use mainly Japan, but also Allies, I don't use Soviets very often ). I kinda use guerrilla warfare in Ace Combat ( can air combat be considered guerrilla warfare or it is just ground ), hide behind mountains....prolific use of radar jammers....and yeah

[Omega133]

OUT OF GAME: Guerilla warfare is mainly land and sea. Land as in Rebels, sea as in Pirates.

[Shogun]

"We lost signal from Alpha, Beta and Charlie Teams, heavy damage to Jupiter Squadron,"

"We lost signal from 6 gunships,"

"Moderate damage to decks 4-6,"

That was what was shouted in the command room of the Gawain carrier, the commander ordered,

"Regroup at Lagrange 2 of Earth, A formation,"

"Aye sir,"

Meanwhile at the Vichi Fleet,

"Sir, 2 scout ships lost, moderate damage to our fighters, 3 light frigates received light damage, our turrets ( ones that are in orbit around mars, not on the surface ) 3-6 are destroyed,"

The Xenturian commander said,

"Give us more time, the fortress will be online soon,"

Out of Game: Pirates....that is why the crews of all commercial ships should have shotguns or security teams. I am just wondering if stealth air combat could be classified as guerrilla warfare.

[fedr808]

It is not, it is very good anti-armor and anti-ship.

Yah, but their not stealthy, agile, and the fact is they are too noisy and big. I need something that makes my force a ghost, I cannot hide a mech in any old jungle. I need infantry based weapon systems. The fact is that if i fight with mechs they will be destroyed, I am already outnumbered. I may use them in the recapture of earth but until than I cannot send them into combat.

[Omega133]

"Hurry up with that thing."

*Boom*

"Heavy damageto the Forward stabilizer."

The Aggressor started listing downward.

Out of Game: Excuse me about agile. Did you forget the Strike, Freedom, Aegis, Justice, Blitz, Buster, Dual, Savior .ect? Did you forget their awesome agility? I am not fighting in the jungle with mechs, I am fighting mostly their armor and ships, also in the dessert, cities and mountains. Black Hole tanks and walkers vs Mobile Suits

no, guerrilla warfare is just on the ground. It can be used against ships in port, but it is really just infantry and land based tactics
