Exactly!

:skyraider: "Something I worked on five years ago [involving a lot of special weaponry] before I joined :AFLogo: "

Tho' my memory failed me on the timing of the story, false association with the same artist. Still, twas early BAF nevertheless.

:quick:

PS. Maybe Dave Tree is spreading disinformation to rehabilitate :boffin: / :baron2: , :AFLogo: need to be warned before the fifth-column infiltration is complete.

PPS. Doesn't that early :space: moon-dolphin thing Dave uncovered look a little bit Project Alpha too?

Ja, I was just thinking the same thing.

Still, couldn't :boffin: have an alarmingly similar bio? Cambridge? The United States? Pathological tendencies? It's all hardly unsymptomatic of the era.

:quick:

An alias like Blofeld used in On Her Majesty's Secret Service maybe?

Don't know, I always assumed Boffin was an old dude. Maybe Vagan was his protege turned to the dark side?

Special Weapons Force ties in very neatly with the Space Force flashback strip...

The plot thickens.
All of today, even when in conference, all I could think about was the :baron2: :boffin: Vagan :space: Ascendancy Island issue/s. It was like it was Xmas 83 and 84 build-up all over again, esp. as the snow fell during breaks outside. Almost expected :nobokov: to be one of the drivers loitering in the car pool.

Ho-hum. Nothing concrete to say; yet all of this shows the internal coherence of the grand :AFLogo: :enemy: narrative.

No wonder BAF got off to such a blinder back in the day! Someone, somewhere, who's ex-Palitoy has more to spill. . .

:quick:

PS. Yeah, I thought of Boffin as an old-dude too. But the :baron2: - BAF annual bio depicts someone getting on a bit. Tho' they could still be the same age as Clint Eastwood now (after fighting in Korea and all that.)

I had this theory soon as I saw no 2 or rather Boffin ..would make a good origin story perhaps even a red herring to throw a.f off track , I will be working on a recon story featuring the John Shephard era/first wave line of Action Force once Majors completed .. I've a theory about the Red Shadows origins too that could date back to ww2 (Nazi's had a weird occult thing going on to do with blood..that's why the swastika flag is red as its the blood of soldiers ..so I think The Red Shadow thing could of been a cult thing that dates back many years) also the skull and cross bones sign is puzzling perhaps the barons ancestors were pirates ..

Oh, you'd just have to tie it in to Death in South America somehow!

That's more than likely possible without Hitler they turned on the Nazis didn't they? I was thinking of doing a retcon(Red Dusk) story firstly set in Action Force era and then going back further in ww2 featuring some classic Battle Characters such as Mike Nelson(The Eagle)Rat Pack, Major Eazy,Johnny Red ,Sarge ..as Cameos or players within story.The story could then venture into cold war era featuring Dregder , One Eyed Jack,Jimmy Chang and Fighting Mann to name a few other old I.P.C characters .(if Zarjaz can get away with it hey why not Blood for the Baron..but I'm getting ahead of myself.. first things first back to colouring for a while lol )

in my fan-fic, i was trying to suggest Ironblood's dad was a Nazi escapee and that he grew up in South America, but was only interested in World Domination and not the whole Master Race BS.

i dunno if it was completely clear.
