Re: [Sun] 26 Apr 2015 (Death from a fog)

Thanks for that video Costno! I saw those exchanges of fire and tried to help our guys out, but I can tell from your video that you pretty much didn't even notice me shooting at you :P Love the bit later on too, I assume that is the UAV operator saying "Good shot you incapped one" and then "Prioriti...

Yeah that was me Fer, thanks; I wasn't expecting an unarmed transport to cook off... *reports in for Remedial Burning Ammunition Truck Identification Training*

Though who set the damn thing on fire in the first place? :confused: was somebody throwing explosives at Alpha?

Oh - I never once heard or saw the UAV and we pretty much forgot it existed.

Re: [Sun] 26 Apr 2015 (Death from a fog)

1: Peered into the mist. Followed Bigboss down a hill. Jayjoe died. Followed Bigboss back up the hill. Was killed by AI. Happily, I got to respawn in Ferrard’s boat. Ran around town in the confusion seeing mostly friendlies and the occasional passing helicopter until Ferrard and I went to rescue Spa...

Re: [Sun] 01 July 2012 (Fifty-five, stay alive ... or not)

In non-chronological order for punchline reasons: ShapurRaiders: We jumped out of our truck and positioned ourselves on the side of a wall away from the enemies. Not counting the Hind. I was optimistically taking aim at it when it blew my head open. That's the last time I see a Hind and don't immedi...

Re: Default Mech Inf Platoon?

One question - why don't we slot Commanders very often? I'm assuming it's because people find them boring but my (limited) experience indicates they're not just the "brain" (the gunner can do that) but also the situational awareness of the vehicle. Commanding a tank in single-player and stuck starin...

Re: Default Mech Inf Platoon?

- Huh, a good reaction, excellent. :) You all make good points. Before that though, let me clarify my suggestion in case I didn't explain it very well: I'm proposing teams & attachments share vehicles, but not that they be permanently OR rigidly attached together. I believe some sharing is essential...

Default Mech Inf Platoon?

Hi, I've been working on a large-scale adv mission - but the standard platoon doesn't include enough IFVs to make the platoon truly mobile if you don't want to use helicopters. Given that the BMP and the LAV take 7 and 6 passengers respectively, the following was my attempt to come up with the "lowe...

Re: [Sun] 10 June 2012 (New ORBAT)

Thanks for running another Session Fer & co Flask X I took the gunner's seat in the Shilka that roamed up the left hand side of the valley. A bunch of the piles of corpses Bravo team came across during their advance would have been our doing :) Unfortunately, we took a couple of AT hits from not-sur...
