Wanna Win Some SEP Swag?

[FraserRonald]

1) The Final Option, Who Dares Wins.

2)When they all burst in the door, nobody goes behind it to see if there's a terrorist hiding there (standard practise) and second, the American Embassy used in the film is the main building of Pinewood Studios.

3) Delta Force? I don't know anything about war

BZZT! Sorry. Thanks for playing!

Also, let me be clear about 2 - I am referring to the actions during the operation itself. Differences such as that this was supposed to be an American embassy rather than Iranian, that the assaulters were actors, or that in the movie they were using blanks aren't exactly what I'm looking for.

I'm all for this. I love quizzes and getting things I didn't pay for (except certain viral infections). How about some riddles. Wikipedia can't help with those.

Main problem: I suck at riddles and mind games and such.

You don't have to tell me ANYTHING about that. I recently won the international chicken pox sweepstakes. Thank goodness for calamine lotion.

What a lucky guy! I never win anything . . . though in a case like yours, that could be considered a good thing.

[FraserRonald]

So, the last question may have proved too tough, since one can't use Wiki or IMDB to answer it. It's still open, but I'll fire out a new one. This one is for a free copy of Canada's Combined Security Reconnaissance Section.

Two questions regarding Canada's SOF, JTF-2

1) The headquarters for JTF-2 is located where?

2) What is the nickname for JTF-2? (Hint, check your Covert Forces Redux if you have it)

jasona and Alzrius, as winners, please refrain from this round.

harsh. I had it when I was 12. Had a spot you wouldn't believe. The doctors took photos of it. Still use it today apparently, to teach students at Bristol university. The scary thing is, the students are learning geography. No, I'm definitely all out of funny.

Unless Who Dares Wins is on TV tonight, I think I'm going to have to give up on this question.

[Raptor]

1) Dwyer Hill (outside Ottawa, rumour has them moving to Trenton)
2) Dwyer Hill Ski Team

You aren't going out to rent it? Where's your dedication?

Everyone is just lucky I didn't ask "What is the colour of the boathouse at Hereford?"

1) Dwyer Hill (outside Ottawa, rumour has them moving to Trenton)
2) Dwyer Hill Ski Team

We have a WINNA! PM sent.

Okay, we still have a question ongoing, but rather than drag that one out, here's another interim quiz. This one is for free copies of Counter-Terrorism Assaulter, Spec Ops Recce, and Special Operations Marksman prestige classes from the Roles & Classes line.

Three questions in this one.
1) During the ambush to snag the package in Ronin, Robert DeNiro's character uses both an assault rifle--in the initial attack--and a machine gun. Name one of the two.

2) Sean Bean wasn't in the SAS in Ronin, but if he were in the SAS, who would he be (note: looking for a specific person)

3) Within the UK's military, the same nickname is used for any member of the AR15 family (M16/C7/C8/etc). What is that term?

jasona, Alzrius, and Raptor, as winners, please refrain from this round.

Keep it together, Raptor. Only out for three rounds total! You'll be back in the game soon!

[FraserRonald]

Apparently, this one was too hard.

The big finale in this 1982 movie reproduced in many aspects the SAS' famous Princess Gate operation at the Iranian Embassy in 1980.

1) Give the two titles by which this movie is generally known.

At least someone got this one!

1) The Final Option, Who Dares Wins.

David, PM on the way.

2) Give two aspects of the movie's embassy assault that differ from the actual Princess Gate operation.

And honorable mention to foreverpeople for this one:

2)When they all burst in the door, nobody goes behind it to see if there's a terrorist hiding there (standard practise) and second, the American Embassy used in the film is the main building of Pinewood Studios.

The first point is a good one, and I can't even remember that. I was looking for a) hanging from a helicopter by ropes and flown into windows and b) having an inside man.

Still, David gave me a good answer, so I'll take it. That PM is already on the way.

3) In the movie, there is an American soldier cross-training with the SAS. From what unit does this soldier originate.

The American soldier training at Hereford is a Ranger.

Okay, so maybe that one was too obscure. We'll try to do better next time.
