Meridian Releases his Mon, Wed, and Friday, in the morning European time. :)  (Usually just before I go to bed, the day before, for me). :)

Finally caught up on this! Great series. Been really enjoying it.

Could you maybe add me as a (very) late recruit?

Use my forum name (bslaveboy)

Thanks

Of course. Welcome to the team! You'll be hired somewhere between episodes 34 and 36.

Btw. in the next LP (FMP, coming soon) we'll be recruiting in reverse order, so you'll be one of the first :-) "The last shall be first, and the first last."

...That means I'm like third on the list for next LP?

I prefer revolvers as a base weapon (that is, if I am not a special soldier (i.e. 70 acc Sniper or 40 str Minigunner, so on so forth.)

Also, I'm sorry to spoil something before you even start the FMP let's play, but I think even newcomers deserve to know this:
Heavy Machine Guns are HEAVY.

That is all.

Just finished watching this series.  Really awesome challenge you accomplished there.  I think my favorite episodes were the base missions looking for SupSuper.  Very cool how you put the civilian in the saved game to represent SupSuper.

Meridian, you're a cool guy. I'm currently listening to your TFTD playthrough and I just had to stop by and say thanks.
Hawaii challenge and FMP are next!
