Diamond Wars Report
Episode One
Reconnaissance Teams from two of the world’s largest Diamond Cartels were deployed to the jungles of the Democratic Republic of Corimbe. Thermo scans of the area suggested large quantities of various precious minerals were housed deep beneath the surface of the jungle. Little was known about the area, as it was abandoned years ago after a chemical war broke out. The Hoffmann Minex Corporation of Europe hired a group of Mercenaries to do their dirty work. Led by a ruthless Major, they sustained very few casualties over the battles that took place between themselves and the elite Reconnaissance Team from the United States Diamond Exports company. Locating Diamond depositories became a second priority after both teams discovered ancient and mystical artefacts, battled constantly through the Jungle, garrisoned POW camps to fend off unseen enemies, and blew up supply routes. Staying alive was their main concern!
The U.S. Reconnaissance Team sent out regular patrols though the jungle to discover what the HMC were up to. They found out that the Hoffmann Mercenary Squad were to collect supplies dropped in by helicopter, but their helicopter crashed, causing their supplies to be up for grabs by whichever force could capture them. The supplies, luckily, did not fall into enemy hands.
The Hoffmann Mercenaries, whilst constantly trying to build up their base by using the POW camp as a more defendable station, were under regular attack by U.S. troops who were vigilantly trying to break their lines and push them back into the jungle. The U.S. squad managed to blow up the watch towers used by the HMC thus disabling their defence, they then broke through and destroyed their comms station sending the Hoffmann Mercenaries into disorder. The final battle of the day was for possession of the POW camp which was won, narrowly by the Hoffmann Mercenaries, but well fought by the U.S. Reconnaissance Team.
At the end of the skirmish, the U.S. Reconnaissance Squad accumulated 88 points by completing missions and dominating tactical territories.
The Hoffman Mercenary Squad managed to gain themselves 93 points, which gave them a very narrow victory.
Episode Two
With the intelligence gathered from the Reconnaissance missions, the troops of the United States Diamond Exports (USDE), and the Hoffmann Minex Corporation (HMC) were deployed back into the unforgiving territories of the Jungles of the Democratic Republic of Corimbe. A veteran Colonel who had fought in the chemical wars of these Jungles, was recruited by the USDE to lead the US Forces. Col. S. Mayo, known quite simply as ‘the Colonel’ led his troops without fear. Returning as the commander of the Hoffmann Minex Corporation was Major Matt Corrall, ruthless as ever, leading fast and furious attack groups, severely damaging the USDE’s lines, and at one point almost destroying their HQ. After gathering supplies for their armies whilst blowing up enemy supply routes, the USDE found the HMC to be a very formidable force, which stopped them destroying a supply route. The USDE managed to acquire the HMC supply crate, as well as their own crate. After a brief discussion, the USDE made a deal with the HMC resulting in them selling the HMC’s supplies back to them!
Both teams battled on to locate and re-inter two coffins, hidden somewhere in the jungle. After locating and gathering both coffins the USDE looked to have the mission under wraps, but the ruthless HMC’s troops were under cover, waiting for the USDE to collect the coffins for them, at which point they ambushed them and took both coffins as their own. After setting up a lab to discover the secrets of a crystal skull found in one of the coffins, the HMC set themselves up to defend the area with patrols and sentries. The USDE had sent out a reconnaissance team to observe. The info gathered by this team proved valuable when the USDE re-grouped and attacked the lab, gathering all files, the crystal skull, and finally blowing up the lab. They then successfully held the area from attack.
After seeing a missile flying across the trees of the jungle, but not hearing a resulting explosion, both forces set out to discover its location. The HMC wanting to attain any explosives and chemicals from the warhead. The USDE wishing to defuse it and make the area safe. A skirmish over the missile broke out both forces, however, managed to complete their objectives.
The final firefight took place on previously unseen territory, an abandoned military base was located nearby, located in a prime tactical location, the HMC successfully held the position for the majority of the battle.
Battles throughout the day were hard and tasking with both teams sustaining large casualty numbers.
This Battle ended with the HMC at 142 points, attained by completing the majority of their missions, and collecting intelligence… however... they received a 30 point reduction, due to markers firing well over the chrono limit of 280. Their total event points were 112.
The USDE, over the day, received 116 points for mission completions, and gathered intelligence. This gave them their first win of the series.
The total series points could, literally, not be any closer. Overall the scores are 204 points to the U.S. Diamond Exports, and 205 points to the Hoffmann Minex Corporation..
The war continues with the HMC seeming to experiment with what appears to be alien remains, missiles and toxic chemicals whilst the USDE fight tactically to destroy the HMC’s efforts of domination. Roll on the next episode of the Diamond Wars on Sunday 31st August………………
See you soon, and thanks again to those that attended, i fully enjoy watching you guys(and now girls) battle it out!
