| BAD KARMA Gold Leader "The Punisher" |
| Specialties: Communication, Support Fire Played by: Paul Malmstrom Hailing from: Milwaukee, Wisconsin |
| Shout-Outs (in no particular order): The other Team Leaders (Captains), for being just that. The Lieutenants, for helping our clan grow, in numbers and in tactics. Anyone who's ever gamed with us on the Zone - for the playtesting and support. GravediGGa - for teaching us how to mod via.his tutorials. (he has "object maps" down to a science!) Those S.M.U.R.F. dudes - for all the weapons... My Magic (see my links) Gaming Group - hope they can join us in Rainbow play sometime soon. My family and friends, who have realized and accepted that I've a kid's imagination, housed in an adult mind, playing a game which requires both. |
| 1. Kelly's Heroes (Bad Karma) - the sound effects still get me disoriented, and Roy Batty and I put them in!! 2. Met Barge In (Vegas Gang) - a supreme test of strategy and tactics. 3. POW Camp (Bad Karma) - extensively modded, it's almost a new map. 4. Winter Hunt (Bad Karma) - an adaptation of Vegas Gang's Bunker Hill map. 5. Basement Blitz (Bad Karma) - who has the guts to get to the other side? (good shotgun/pistol map) 6. Covered Bridge (Bad Karma) - Old train tracks with a twist - dusty conditions and a covered bridge... 7. NORAD I (Bad Karma) - a favorite of most who've played it - anything's possible. 8. Thunderdome (Bad Karma) - totally chaotic - good luck! 9. Mule Path (Vegas Gang) - a great example of an 'area map' (see Modding techniques). 10. Break on Through (Bad Karma) - fun stuff - best when frags are disabled (another good shotgun map). |
| (Note: GravediGGa's maps deserve more credit for playing large games, but for small to medium sized games, these are my digs.) |
| The Punisher's Picks: |

| Favored Map Mods |
| Favored Weapons (Featuring CLANSMURF'S BSW Mod) 1. M-62 .50 caliber - (BSW) - Lots of stopping power on this new assault rifle. 2. Colt M-635-SD (BSW) - My main weapon vs. the computer tangos, it's rate of fire makes it a viable MP weap. 3. Spectre SMG (BSW) - Tried and tested, you can run and gun with this one most effectively. 4. HK PDW (RS) - High rate of fire - my run and gun weapon. 5. Blaser R93 Tactical (BSW) - Full clip and excellent zoom make it my standard sniping gun. 6. Groza Thunderstorm-SD (BSW) - Rate of fire and silence can be a killer combo. 7. 92FS 9mm-SD (RS) - All you can hear is the click of the hammer falling. Excellent sidearm. 8. Franchi Spas-15 auto-shotgun (BSW) - Only good for games where you need to put your one man down. 9. .40 USP pistol (RS)- 13 rounds and a heavy punch have made this a fave sidearm. 10. Stand-alone heartbeat sensor (RS) - not a weapon, but nets me more kills than anything else on small maps. |
| Favored Tactics The following are personal rules that I try to stay disciplined at: Communication - using the MP Bound keys to let my team know what I'm up to. I also check my map frequently to see where they're at. Support fire - I usually back up my more aggressive teammates by providing suppressive fire - those "run and gun" guys need cover fire, so they can advance. Proper reloading - I seldom let my weapon run dry before I slap a fresh magazine in. If I get down to 8-12 rounds on an assault gun, I try and find a safe spot to reload. Deception - quite often, I will get psychological on my opponents. Example - fragging/smoking one door, only to re-deploy and appear at another door where they are no longer looking. |
| Magic: The Gathering - A collectible card game - I've been playing Magic since the release of 'Fallen Empires.' This link hooks you up with Wizards of the Coast, the creators of the game. |
| Introduction: I'm one of the non-military members of the Clan - haven't served - but compensate somewhat by the fact that I'm much more well versed in tactics, strategy, equipment, and weapons than the average layperson. My personal focus is on rotary aircraft - a.k.a. helicopters. I play RS for small scale tactical fun. For large scale warring, Civilization II is my game. For adrenaline, I love flight simulators. While I haven't served in the military, I do have three-dimensional tactical experience from playing paintball pretty extensively. When playing Rogue Spear online, I adopt the persona of my favorite character from the Marvel Comics product line - The Punisher - a.k.a. Frank Castle. He's a "take no prisoners" guy, so I figured he'd fit right into a Rainbow Six team.... |

| Commonly referred to in my home as "the military channel," the cable station actually runs a pretty decent website as well. If you want to learn more about Special Forces, weapons, or anything military, it's a nice site. Yes - they have 'regular' history stuff too. |
