Guys, I am in need of some gaming material for D&D and some other games, mainly extra mech sheets of book mechs.
Right now mail is in a loop, we are moving around so I can't give a new address. I will have my wife post it once I get.
If you guys have anything to send please do so. For now you can send the stuff to my home address and my wife can mail it to me.

Right now I am down to a couple of sheets from the 3025 era and we had a slight problem and I lost my D&D DM book. Mostly we need mech sheets since we don't have a copy machine around here.
Thanks for all and any thing you or the others can send!
Eric

As you have access to email, i woulder if you have a laserprinter there too ? 
If the answer is yes, i can search for a printer driver which prints into a PDF file instead of a printer and try to create PDF files from HM for you.
I wish you good luck and hope you are back in the US healthy and in one piece soon

Here is the APO so you folks can send packages. They gave us a permament one since we are now locked into a base camp for the time being.

Hi Karagin,
thanks to more than 3 pounds of record sheets from Zeec, i have finally been able to fill a letter for you with 2 kilograms
I intend to speak to someone in the American embassy in Vienna if it is possible to send this letter directly to you in Iraq, as the Austrian postal service isn't able to deliver to a APO 
If all else fails, i send it to your address in the States which you mentioned at the start of this topic 
But as even a ECONOMY letter with 2 kg will cost me ~20 $ ( 18.25 EURO ), you shouldn't expect this letter before the end of January

More later!

Karagin's location (or more correctly, his unit's location) and mission are already available on several websites, including the website for the base where his unit is stationed in the States.
While I understand your concerns the fact that a) this information is readily available elsewhere already and b) if it were truly a secret I have faith that Eric wouldn't have posted it, I feel that there is little reason to edit his post.

The enemy already knows where the unit is regardless of the web. besides "north of Tikrit" is a nice large area, no loss, besides he is making decisions about his own saftey. He is the shooter on site, I betcha he is as careful with OPSEC as he needs to be.

Hey, didn't want to start an OPSEC controversy here. I just hope the Battletech comrade is safe and well so he can enjoy the game for many years to come.
We pray for your quick and safe return.
