PBB Game 2 (Zombies?)

I am about to Start PBB game no 2. Having had a couple of false starts I am keeping it small and low key this year, maybe bigger next, who knows.

There are currently 3 slots open for players on a first come first served basis. This will be more roleplay/skirmish than big battle. I will need 3 characters.

1 Troop commander. (yes they will be in charge )
1 Vehicle Driver, (WIMIK)
1 Vehicle Gunner. (40mm Auto Grenade Launcher)

Much like the last PBB game it is all experimental and therefore likely to go wrong so if it does please forgive me. But If you want to play this year you are welcome.

There will be 6 players in all and 3 spaces have already joined.

Cpl. Ian "Coop" (Shelldrake) Cooper, (2ic,)Vehicle Driver
Pvt. Simon "Brum" Quinton 50. Cal Gunner
Pvt. Kasper "Frog" Froberg. (Mechanic or Medic yet to be decided and the Bosses choice, not his!))

I will be using the "TOTAL AR:SE" rules but you do not need a copy as I am happy to give one to you, or they are free on the interweb thingie IF you can find them. (I could not and had to be shown). A couple of rule amendments will need to be made for PBB and Roleplaying, but generally the same rules.

By Roleplaing I am not so interested in every word spoken but in actions of a single figure!

There are some mission clues in the pictures, (nothing at all cryptic) The setting is purely imaginary and is not meant to exist in the real world but some nebulous setting in North Africa or the middle east. IT WILL NOT BE A HISTORICAL GAME

I was hoping to start the game today, but a couple of hand picked players have not managed to get in touch with me hence the open call for 3 more players.

SO If you want to play, Please leave a comment and email me at Clintburnettagain (at)Hotmail(dot) C0m. Please read other comments and if someone before you has asked for a specific role respect them and select another. Every player will be able to try anything maybe just the once though but to a LESSER EXTENT THAN THE SPECIALISTS.

All I need at this stage is 3 players and my first job will be to give you Nicknames suitable for your character and the British army setting.

It is first come first served and I am ready to go. So should start next Saturday with turns each weekend thereafter.

That's it for now. All the best Clint

  1. Hi, Clint. I'd very much like to participate. I am happy to take any role, including team leader if no one else wants it.

    1. Thanks Bryan, I did email you about it earlier in the week (along with Mathyoo) but I guess the email got lost in the ether or bad email hell or something! I will send it out again.

      Ok Bryan "Boss" Scott. is now team leader. (Be warned they will most likely not do what you tell them, players are like that).
      Cheers Mate.

    2. Many thanks, Clint. Insubordination in the ranks is par for the course. I wonder how well they'll respond to bribes? :-)

    1. Thanks Fran. With your permission I will set the game in "Franistan", your fictional made up country.

      ARSE rules are so simple they will not get in the way and all players will understand them dead quick (pun intended!).

      Glad to have you on board. I am currently thinking Tank battle next year, but for now zombie skirmish. Any preference to character role, Driver and Gunner still available.

  6. "Boss" or "Bon" Scott :-p after all, I am sure ADCD would be great for attracting zombies...

    1. Thank you Ian. I am assuming that in the Australian army Lieutenants are called "Boss" by the men they command in the field just like the British army.
