Subject: Re: That Age Thing AND FMAS names
> Know what you mean, Dave. It was nice to hear some fess up to over 50, Which makes me, at 16.5, what? An Infant or Pre-Natal? And now for something On-Topic: Here is an almost complete list of names suggested for FMAS in semi-Alphabetic order with my Comments. Some are rather tounge in cheek so please don't be offended by them. Alpha Team Assault Force Alien Soil - Sounds to Large Scale Body Count Bayonet Point - Stargrunt 1.8K :-) Blazin' Beamers - LOL Black Op Contact! Crash Action - Sound like subs to me. Close Action Combat Drop Combat Team Cold Steel - Stargrunt Fantasy Battle... Hmmm that would be a neat Idea actually. Close Assault Check your targets - Sound like an Aliens Reference "Check those Corner!" - Apone CQB (Close Quarters Battle) Doom Squad Duck and Cover - With Burt the Turtle on the Cover! Yah! *Females Singing* Tweedle-dum-dum, Tweedle-dum-dum, There was a turtle by the name of Burt, and Burt the Turtle was very alert. When Danger threatened he never got hurt. He knew just what to do. *Boom* He'd Duck and Cover... Ok I'll stop now :-) Die Shift Doom Platoon Death Watch Engage! Enemy Force! Fireteam Zero Full Auto - All the time, All the time. Fire Zone Ground Zero - Sounds like a Post-Apocalyptic game or a description of my bedroom. Generic Universal Tactical System (GUTS) Guns and Ammo Gauss and Grenades Go In - Fits in with leaving the game open to bad sex puns. Go To Ground - Sounds like we just got the S**t kicked out of us and we got to hide from the Invaders. Hell Patrol - DOOM III Hostile Contact! In Harm's Way Immediate Action Killing Ground Knife Edge Marines and Mini-Nukes Man Down - Rainbow 6 Overwatch Orbital Assault - Is this FMAS or A new name for DS2 :-) Pointfire Planet Platoon - Groan. Point of Contact Point Man - Not who'd I want to be, still good name. Power Armor Power Troopers PIGs and Power Armor Plasma Strike! Reaction Fire Rapid Fire! Rules of Engagement - Taken. A pair of spaceship combat games. Not bad actually. If you also had Breach 2 or 3 you could use Breach to do boarding actions. Recon One Section Leader! Special Action Strike Swiftly Sudden Death - Taken. Space Fighter game I belive. Surgical Strike Sharp Edge Special Forces Sustained Fire Shots Fired! - Sounds like a police game The Sharp End Target Rich Environment - FMAS VS DS2. You're not outnumbered, your in a Target Rich Environment! Target Front Take Down - SWAT Team Target Destroyed Taking Fire! - Police again Under Fire! - and again Up Close and Personal Under Cover - The name is Bond, James Bond. or Under Cover, Under Lynx. Bonus points if you get the last reference, and instant death if you don't get the 1st. Unfriendly Fire - Is there any other kind? Weapons Free - Top Gun
