MI - Meet Major General RivasA

Day 751, 01:01 Published in USA USA by Heather Fuchs


There was a HUGE majority of you who were convinced the bogus answer last week with Major Dimension was the question about the girlfriend. As one of you eloquently put it: "No self-respecting 16-year-old guy would ever admit being broken up with." However, Dim has a lot of self confidence because that was in fact his answer.

The one I made up was about his dogs. The real version:


"I have two dogs actually. One named Bailey, (Affectionately: "Hay bale&quot😉 that is a Golden Retriever and Basset mix. Bailey is seven years old and the best pet I've ever had. And the other, named Chloe, (Affectionately: "Get away from me, you flea bag&quot😉 that is a Bichon Frise. This one is like 8 months old and we have a mutual tolerance."

Congratulations to Battle Cry regulars Angel of Music, Lazert111, and n4n0 who all guessed the correct answer. Look for them in a future story here in the paper.

This week we meet the MI's Command Advisor Major General RivasA. I also worked with RivasA at MI Iron 2 in Greece, so you can see working for MI companies you get to rub elbows with a lot of famous people. Check out MI employment opportunities on the military forum.



Major General RivasA has participated in eRep for nearly 10 months. He maintains an impressive 13.24 in strength and his work history has been spread across all three land constructions and manufacturing. Clearly our Major General has other rl things going on since he's only earned 1 Hard Worker Medal. In-game he is ranked as a General and in 885 fights he has rained down 62,819 units of damage on enemies of the eUSA all over the globe.

My conversation with RivasA follows, with a twist that will be familiar to regular readers of this paper. One of these questions I didn't actually ask him. If you figure out which one I made up, send me a PM (do NOT post your guess in the comments below or it won't count).


Thanks to the incredible generosity of Max McFarland 2, the first person to get the correct answer this week will receive one Q-FIVE weapon. In addition, everyone who gets the correct answer will be featured in the next action story here in the Battle Cry. Win fame and fortune AND a weapon! Here we go:

>Anything else you want our readers to know?
Ever since I first joined the military, I have seen the good that our military has done for ourselves, our country and our people and want all new players to know that here, there will always be people willing to teach you anything about this game you want to know. I recommend the eUSA military for just about anyone. O7
