Pros:

• Finished mission.
• Enjoyed our comrades.

Cons:

• A LOT of squad basics were executed very poorly, leading to a feeling of insurmountable difficulty for much of the squad.
• Suggest we do not execute night missions on Tac R due to possibility of new players who lack experience with Arma. Reduced visibility heightens the difficulty in a way that is not always enjoyable.
