Nathan is officially made the Lord of this thread for his pure awesomeness. Anywho...
I've got another idea for an objective. Each side must choose one NPC to be a "King" as in chess but not tell the other side who is who. If the king is killed (or eliminated from the thread, however we intend to define elimination) then that side automatically loses. So both sides have to use tactics to throw the enemy of the scent of who the king is and to protect him as best they can.
Good idea or too complicated?

It is an interesting idea but would it simulate a scenario one might be thrown into regularly? I personally think that we should just have standard objectives for this one and then maybe do special training ones after that. But I am not dead set either way.

Yep, sure there's room for you and your Thompson. I'm not sure I like the 'king' idea, though. I want this battle to be tactical to give you guys some practice and I think people would just keep their special guy far away from the rest of the fighting and send all their main forces head on against the enemy.
Realistic objectives would (in my opinion) be better.
Problem is the Yanks have the better guns. (Mac has a tommy and pearson has an Enfield+Springfield scoped) Whereas we have two Enfield's. I do not disagree but I think the brits should be allowed to use one SMG just for the battle to even things out.

The problem I see with UK vs USA, and not to be blunt, but...it's skill. I reckon that Mac and Owen are the two most skilled RP-ers of you four (I haven't seen Scott in battle yet so I can't really make an educated guess on his front).
I would propose - weapons and skill entailed- that Team 1 would consist of Mac and Scott, Team 2 of Ballard and Owen.
I trust your judgment Ealing, your probably quite right.
Edit: Rhodri, your saying 'we' confused me for a moment and I thought you were playing with us for a bit until I remembered you were not Ballard and you meant 'we' as in us 'Brits'.
