Here it is. An Auzzie/Kiwi merc group open to anybody in Australia or New Zealand, just post up if you would like to join. I'd like to thank Pave Low for the wonderful idea for the name. Please post up if you are interested in joining. Also any helpful criticism, on the name or an icon maybe, is also welcome. Also you can check us out at our site here. The has been changed to just ANZAC after a vote was held.

Thanks for Reading

G'day Guy's

Count me in I think it's a great name. I don't know how much time I'll have and I have the crappiest internet conection in the history of the internet, but if I can I'll be in it.

Hi guys

Though I am far more interested in implementing an Australian Clan Unit HOWEVER given the time lag I would enjoy being involved with any Aussie/kiwi unit I can get into.

Been playing BT and MW for ... far longer than I should admit and would be keen to compete for a lance commanders role as soon as possible.

Drop me a line! I am in Canberra.

I understand the ANZAC bit, but why boomers? It sounds like a 1950's doo wop group...

I think you guys should call yourselves "The Waltzing Mathildas"!

Seriously, I can see your enemies fleeing in terror already: " Enemy Mech sighted 2 'o clock...****! Did you guys see the kangaroo on that roundel??! It's.....it's....IT'S THE WALTZING MATILDAAAAHHHHS!!! RETREAT!!"

A boomer is another name for an adult male kangaroo. and kangaroos pack quiet the punch. so yea. but as i said the name is open to change.

Like i said at this stage only thing that is really defined is that this is an auzzie/kiwi merc group everything is debatable at this stage. If some postes up a name/logo or something like it and if enough people (who are in the group) like it then it will be changed. Also the test site is up here lemmie know what you guys think =]

I'm also with an Aussie clan unit that would need a home until after the invasion - I reckon there'd be about 10 of us...
