The everlasting struggle

The sound of AK-47 fire echoed throughout the torn and burning streets. The carnage of battle could be heard for miles: the screams of men, sounds of automatic fire, jets streaking overhead....it was near orgasmic. The guerrilla fighers continued their stiff resistance, using the terrain, ambushing the advancing forces, fighting to the death.

2 columns, south by southwest. Reposition those rockets to the other side of the road, and keep up suppressive fire!

A random officer began barking orders as the sounds of tank fire and mortars drowned his screams out. Reserves were being called up as the guerrillas repositioned themselves and began digging in amongst the rubble. Setting up light to heavy machine guns in craters, the men began pouring fire down upon the advancing armies, who up until now had held back their massed assult for some time. But alas, the day had come when they would try again to slaughter all that stood against them.

Sighting in his scope, a lone sniper took aim as the armor came rolling down the burning streets. Adjusting his sight, he peered, looking at the rows of men shuffle about behind their armor. Placing the crosshair over the head of an unfortunate soldier, the sniper's finger began to tighten on the trigger.

Sitting in his office watching the smoke rise from the south, 02 sat silent. Pondering the destruction to come, his thoughts drifted....drifted to the days of old....the old failures...the embassy explosion on Asutj...the hijacking of Skynet....all failures. 02 knew that his time had come, and he would have to stand tall, not for his own survival, but to make the enemy suffer as much as possible. He knew has was to die....

...his aids entered.

Sir, grids 6,7,8, and 12 have been compromised. Grids 3 and 5 are about to fall. We are bringing up reserves to strengthen our lines in grids 3,4,5.....

02 cut him off.

Good good...do whatever...

02's aid was insistant. Sir, you really need to stay in the game here. We need your orders.

02 stood, stretching out his back. Walking away from the bay window, he gathered his aids in the center of the room.

Concentrate artillery and mortar fire towards the rear of their columns, while simultaniously pushing the front lines. The enemy will be hard pressed to stay alive with their front and back being hit. Do it.

The aids quickly left the room.

OOC: Can we have a small recap? How did it all come to this?

OOC: Also, the spelling is aide in this usage of the word.
