Take off in a groupe medics keeps recon alive with waves long enough for the bombercon to drop his bomb load. Greatpatch but i didnt se anything about certan head flare from Tales from the Adept or Hight Ponytale. The players chosen fleshtone is pretruding from the given choice of whate ever they want on ther heads. Pleas point it out if i am incorect.

They usually allot a larger section of time than they really need in the case that something unexpected happens.
