Countdown Special Ops

SPECIAL OPS: BOB

"Hi, my name is Bob Jones. I like to throw with hand grenades. I just love to do it. Unfortunately sometimes I cannot control my self and the other ops have much difficulty holding me back. Because when I throw in a hand grenade in an area and we do not know what is in there, we might be risking the life of innocent people."

"People call me all kind of names, Hellfire Jones, or The Buster. Well, what I do is to save us a lot of time by throwing in a hand grenade in one of the adjacent areas. Some of the other ops are sometimes a bit defensive and careful. I think you can only end a mission succesfull and alive if you put some real explosives into it. Well, I will explain to you my strengths and where you can use me for when you are in a state of emergency because you have failed another mission..."

"So here you can find my profile. I am number 2, of course. It means that I am the second one in line. When me and my team mates enter an area, I am the second one who gets the bullits. Right? The symbol of a hand grenade refers to my specialyt. I can throw in hand grenades in an area, each time I use up 1 of my energy cubes. Also I can get better in my specialty and I will do more damage I can assure you. The revolver symbol indicates my aiming experience and aiming skill. I can get up to a skill level 5, which is quite strong."



"The other things you can see on my profile card - which is going to be made out of real heavy carton - are my health and my energy. I start with two health, indicated by two wooden blocks next to my heart symbol on the card. When I have been shot, I lose 1 health. If I have no health left, I am dead! So make sure if you send me into the mission, that you ask Rita to back me up. She can heal me and give me some extra energy to move on during the gun fight. The yellow lightning indicates the number of actions I can do in a game round. I start with two energy blocks (yellow wooden blocks) and I hope that this will be enough for the round. At the end of each game round all ops, who are still alive, get a new energy (recovery phase)."

"I hope you have learned more about me and next time you see me and want to call me names, that you will just show a bit more respect!"
