| This week Sekwaf has successfully completed sniper school, and will be taking the final test tomorrow or sometime next week. I have finished completely the material for Sniper School, as well as developed an all-encompassing final test that also serves as a placement, score so high, you get certified as Basic, score higher, and you get advanced. I would also like to announce the addition of a new course, Marine Force Recon. The real life Marine special forces unit will be a special designation. Members who have completed Jump School, are advanced Sniper certified, completed Airborne Combat School, and basic squad movement, and Sekwaf's Covert Ops will have the option to take a course that ties them all together into an elite special operations designation. Material will be coming soon. EDIT* Forgot I had this screen, during this part of the course, Sekwaf had to take a camoflauged position and take two shots on my without being spotted. Not bad.

| its not too hard. the sniper school takes about two days to complete. it's a lot of material to cover, about 3 hours if you get through it at a decent clip. i'll be getting training material on Airborne Combat and Squad Movement soon. but the key is passing the sniper test and getting the advanced score. the test itself could take up to over an hour. it has three phases :O |

| Yeah it gets pretty advanced but it a load of fun. I'll be taking this test tonight. My favorite part probably had to be shooting xbearer dead with one bullet from 300 meters away (1337 skillz0rz much?). So I'd recommend that you take it if you have the time and patience (as I learned, sniping is a VERY patient game). |

| he left out that i was stationary in a turret letting him kill me to get the feel for long distance shots. we'll see if he passes just kiddin. but i laid out the test so it takes away subjectivity, so i cant say, hey, if you did a good job, you pass. you have to earn it. you'll do fine. it'll be fun. |

| you have a point but it was still a 300 meter shot that only used one of my bullets (that's right, I only shot once). And no freebies?! (jk). Yeah it will be fun. |

| alright, Sekwaf has successfully completed the Scout Sniper test, he passed with a score of 189pts out of a required 150 and is Advanced Sniper certified. based on my previous experience with Ads, i permitted him to take part in the test, he successfully completed two of the three phases and will be finishing next week. he is on track to pass the test, with over 150 points accumulated already. he is one of the best snipers i've had the pleasure to fight with, and i expect him to pass with over 200 points. |

| That was long. About 2 hours and 15 minutes but I'm sure some of you could finish it faster. Don't know how you could possibly pass phase two without two people. I'd recomend to take this with a friend just so you can pass that phase a bit more easily. I still recommend this class and hope to help others with it if that's alright with xbearer (ADI position? ) |
