Yeah.
Bogue: We'll need a digger & Driver.
I've got an angle on a bulldozer so I'll let you know how we go.
Might have to lay off the choreographed gunnery though.
Stu: Original pre seige planned detonation is still a go. (I need those docs please.)
Have managed to acquire F Tabard from loyal Raven so Operation Turncoat is also still go.

Stuart,
Theres alot of alluvial boulders/gravel at the site.
Thinking of restricting canon the single barrage.
I'm going bush this weekend but will try and get photos of porposed location.
Fancy a free train trip to Palmy Late August / Early September?
Could get you down for Clontarf and we can scope it then.

Here's a positional in relation to the hall.
I guess now we play with the Bulldozer.

Sage,
That's called a moat.
Should make a good base location.
On the serious side.
Yeah it'll need about a 1.2m rise in river level.
But the river has cut through the horseshoe it used to follow.
So the entire peice in those photos is a redundant loop till it changes its path again.
Make that call when the time comes.
conal.

I would suggest that archery & javelins for the fort battle be recorded, Marshall, Regen, then back in.
Might give some numbers to missle hits.
No firing into melee?
Canons are out.
Sorry no prepared charges either.
Not a Ruapekapeka but it got a great backdoor.
Night 'all.
