Bodi Posted February 28, 2021 While the Captain Hunter was obeserving the garrison, hiding in the bushes, having faith in his camouflage skill, an Olean captain was having a conversation with one of the guards. "Luckily you've sharp eyes." Said the captain. "Thank you, sir! They've been wandering around since a week, spying our defense with their spyglass." "Good, these men must be Corrie spies, continue to act like nothing happened, and don't do anything that could awake their suspicion. They'll well surprised If the redcoats want to exploit that 15 minutes gap." Said the captain with a smile. Edited "Good, they must be plotting something, continue to act like nothing happened, you know something is happening, but you should pretend you don't know." Said the expressionless captain. Spoiler A reaction to Evancelt's excellent build, "Taking notes". Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

NOD Posted February 28, 2021 It looks funny how the observer looks through the binoculars directly in front of the wall. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
evancelt Posted February 28, 2021 (edited) Fabulous (and rapid!) response build! Any guesses where your captain and guard are stationed? Edited February 28, 2021 by evancelt Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I read your post several times without finding any mention about the location of the build, so I guess I shall not tell it either. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bregir Posted March 1, 2021 Excellent response-build, Bodi - I like how you have recreated Evan's build and countered his story. Since this build and counter build has a relatively inconsequential impact on overall storylines, this sort of replication is fun, and it has been well executed! However, I should just like to remind everyone about the risk of meta-gaming. Again, in this specific context it is not really a problem, and creates a fun story, but as Evan hints at, no one really should know about these reconnaissance missions, as they are kept secret. But had it been a more important issue, for instance the details Oldis discusses with his aids, or what Brickleton, Spud, and Montoya discusses on their trips, meta gaming would have been a problem. Hope that makes sense - again, I am not seeing this as a problem here - but I just thought it was a good prompt to take up the general concept Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bodi Posted March 2, 2021 @Bregir Fair point, I'm going to change the narrative. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
