So, it seems like we'll be 4 people that I know of, and we're just about ready. I'm aiming for this weekend as starting point for the story. And then we'll see how it goes from there.

The game will begin with the characters being retrieved or snagged (depending on willingness to come along), and then being brought to U.D.F. high command in Oakridge, where they will be debriefed. After that, they'll be shipped to a training facility at an unknown location, where they will receive a condensed package of all the training they need. This part of the story will be close to 'slice-of-life', as we'll simulate at least 3 months at the training facility.
