Operation Roadkill:
SITREP: Flushed out from their hideout, the guerilla group attempted to convoy men and supplies to a safer location, but their convoy was an easy target and destroyed by UAF air strikes. Preparing for the worst, a UAF Counter-Insurgency Team has been dispatched to the area to sweep the area for any survivors.

Games hours reset
In case you were wondering where all the clan gaming hours went Xfire decided to reset all the clan hours. Sucks that we no longer can see what all hours were played collectively and we will have to start over.
Article Here:
Hey all,
There is an upcoming change (likely with this week's Web update) to the way the game hours work for clans.
Clan game hours as they worked previously:
The clan game hours consist of a total of hours played for that game by each individual clan member from the past, present, and eventually future hours.
So for example if you recruit someone that has 1,000 hours of a game when they join your clan suddenly your clan gets a 1,000 hour boost regardless of the fact that those hours were not actually accrued while in that clan.
The opposite applies, if a clan member leaves the clan the hours are then subtracted from that clan.
This current system creates a lot of fluctuations in clan game hours and is not a very accurate portrait of how active the clan is...
