This month the SOGPF Developers were kindly invited by the Friday Night Fight (FNF) Team to join their 120 player TvT Vietnam Themed Match. Over the course of 2 Friday nights in 2 weeks we played with 120 players from the Battle of Ia Drang Valley to the Fall of Saigon.
We thank the FNF Team for inviting the team and for all of their hard work put into organizing this huge event we all enjoyed playing and hope to join them again sometime in the future.
We’ll leave you with the short Twitch clip from Lcpl_Liru live broadcast on how the event went: https://www.twitch.tv/lcpl_liru/clip/HelplessStormyMooseNotLikeThis-5Jl1iwX8U_81Ddbv

The past month has seen a flurry of activity preparing to roll out the ARSENAL system, designed by SOG 1-0 Dick Thompson. This simple questionnaire about stress resilience will be made available free to veterans, following a successful fundraising exercise that coincided with the release of SOG Prairie Fire's 1.1 update at the end of September. Watch out for some fascinating podcasts on the subject of gaming, stress, combat and health heading this way very soon.

NightIntruder published the Douglas A-1H "Spad" a single-engine, propellor driven attack-bomber aircraft that could be operated out of an aircraft carrier. It's a single seater, enjoyable to fly, old-school and slow for the era it was operated. Having 15 weapon stations overall, it was also quite a capable anti-insurgency CAS plane. This is a perfect fit for a Prairie Fire extraction
