Pros:

• Bravo company's first community event! Taking on the First Infantry Division in a Head to Head battle.
• These games proved the First to be a extremely effective, and well co-ordinated opponent, high lighting things for us to work on to become an even more effective team.
• Our Squads still worked well together and used their training, skill level, and team work to make things difficult on the first, had only a few extra maneuvers worked or if we had ourselves a few more minutes, the out come could have been much different.
• Our armor is extremely effective, and is something we should invest more time into building and training.
• Excellent trooper turn-out. Keep recruiting so we can make these Operations even more fun. such as 50 vs 50 Cav only game!

Cons:

• Garrison Troubles: While we were able to effectively place our garrisons, the enemy team had their eyes on the sky and tracked us down quickly. Taking out our ability to flank, rendering us ineffective, in some instances with only one non-HQ location to spawn at.
• Lack of impact on OBJ's. The limited garrisons and out of position troopers caused weak flanks. We need to build momentum towards a objective at a steady and effective pace, not moving forward until ready to do so, but also being aware of time limitations on a game mode such as offensive.
• No dedicated arty squads. Arty can be a extremely effective asset which we are under utilizing.

Feedback/Solutions:

• Keep your heads held high, many praises from the First commending our fight, we gave them solid competition, the first Warfare game went down to the last 10 minutes. Remember, Defeat is our greatest teacher.
• Dedicated garrison teams, rolling supply trucks or doing supply guy swaps to drop supplies and independently build garrisons.
• First Infantry division have different methods for locating OPs / Garrisons. General Smoke is interested in more "Clan vs Clan" battles as well as JTF OPs where we would combine our forces then battle each other. This may be a excellent opportunity to have a open mind and learn.
