Gibsonm Posted November 25, 2018 Share Posted November 25, 2018 By now most readers will already know who BG ANZAC is, so I'll put the information relevant to this week in first, then background, etc. If you are new to the Forum, feel free to read the entire post. IMPORTANT: As a serving Officer, I am not allowed to make "public comment" about topics without clearance. This is why my signature block says what it says to cover written comment. Recorded audio on YouTube = "Public Comment", especially if I were to express a personal opinion (without knowing someone was recording). In addition recording people's voices in Australia is illegal without their permission or a Warrant. If you want to record a session, ASK! We maybe about fit you in (I maybe able to play the OPFOR, etc.). If you don't ask: a. Expect me to ask you to remove the YouTube (or other media). b. Don't be too surprised if you aren't welcomed back. BLUF (Bottom Line Up Front): Your Local time: Click on this link for the Local time in your part of the world Last one prior to Daylight saving commencing here in Australia. Count down: Time remaining until Meeting start Mission will start promptly at 0830 GMT. If you want a pre game "chat" then by all means come on line at say 0800 GMT, but so that the Kiwi's aren't after Midnight the Mission will commence promptly at 0830 GMT. Agenda: One of the following: 1. Have another of Chris's gems to test so hopefully we get a few people. 2. Continuing the discussion on Scenario Design and things to think about. This may well be expanded to include the recent "recce vs Main Force" battle idea. 3. Revisiting some "not so easy missions" from the past - probably harder still after 4.023. These need a few people to turn up. 4. Do some "Brilliant at the Basics" work? This can encompass some Tutorials (along the recent sessions on Obstacles, Artillery, Symbology, Routes and Tactics, etc.) or working through some small unit density scenarios. As always, visitors (apart from one individual) / first timers / spectators are welcome. Current Standard: 4.023 Please use the new Calendar RSVP function or post here to facilitate planning. Background: Who is BG ANZAC? https://www.bganzac.org Described here: http://www.steelbeasts.com/sbforums/showthread.php?t=21753 A couple of examples of the BattleGroup at work: Multi Player session: Training session: Timings: Thursday evenings, Australian East Coast time. Through a combination of democracy, state's rights and bl**dy mindedness, the country is now fractured into numerous time zones (three wasn't enough) for the next six months and we need to adjust the start time. Next meeting: 0830 GMT on Thursday, November 29th. 0830 in London 1630 in Perth 1800 in Darwin 1900 in Adelaide 1830 in Brisbane 1930 in Sydney, Melbourne, Canberra 2130 NZST in Auckland In game chat / Communications: You'll need access to "Teamspeak" to communicate with us. The Teamspeak software is available here: Download Teamspeak client software How to connect and use it is detailed here: Steel Beasts Wiki Entry - Starter Pack Remote Access / Screen Sharing / Whiteboard Sessions: We continue the use of TeamViewer so people without the Steel Beasts software can connect and see and hear what we see and hear (looking over our shoulder if you like). Team Viewer available here This maybe a suitable vehicle for people to see what the software is all about (you can even use it on a Mac), without having to invest in even a short time limited copy. Anyway we'll see how it goes. So if you are interested, visit our web site https://www.bganzac.org and sign up. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gibsonm Posted November 26, 2018 Author Share Posted November 26, 2018 Well hopefully the "change" is that you no longer need to visit the specialist. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chrisreb Posted November 28, 2018 Share Posted November 28, 2018 Guys - have had hell of a day at the Hospital today . They had a major incident with no power and bbackup power failed. Eventually grabbed a consultant for a discussion from his memory of my notes. MRI inconclusive so they (an me) still worried re Abscess or Cancer so 2 Ops in December which is not great but necessary. I need to sort some stuff out tomorrow and make some calls so if we go ahead I have to leave within 2 1/2 hours. If any session next week would expect to come along. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gibsonm Posted November 29, 2018 Author Share Posted November 29, 2018 (edited) Chris, Sorry to hear of your ongoing challenges. Hopefully the NHS are revising their Business Resumption Plan? As always SB comes a distant second to real world so if we see you we see you and if not we understand. Hope you get to the bottom of it soon.
