Pros:
  • Stayed busy the entire operation doing inserts, loved it
  • Hot LZ, loved it
  • Engaged by AA threats throughout, loved it
  • Good mission design for RW
Cons:
  • A lot of disconnects tonight
  • The demo block in the kits aren't enough to "det" a MH airframe
  • Low turnout

Pros:
Great mission and OPORD/briefing
Great pace/timing/etc
Good amount of AA/AAA/threats to the airframes
great flight comms and updates from other aircraft about the situation on the ground



Cons:
Not too much minus some disconnection issues, nothing negative on the mission side of the house... great missions!

Pros:
  • Fun little 4-5 man team
  • Punched above our weight effectively for the most part
  • Excellent reaction to IDF in our squad. Took some extremely close impacts but nobody ever went down.
  • For such a low strength squad, we had 0 black tags. Plenty of injuries and Red Tags, but 0 Black.

Cons:
  • Got stuck in OBJ1. Lost scenario flow when 6 went down, got bogged down with enemy armor having direct line of sight to friendly positions.
  • 4 man team meant every engagement could potentially be a squad wiping engagement, but it is what it is.
- Suggest moving WFW forward an hour to account for DLS time changes and hopefully improve attendance.

Shoutout to Staff Sergeant Mazinski.H as 7 and Corporal Velasquez.J in Atlas for coming to our Squad's aid when we were bogged down. At times, they were the only thing that kept us fighting.

Pros:
  • Great op with lots of medical
  • We worked really good as a squad and had a fast response time
  • Great OPORD with the small things that makes it fun.
  • Few blacktags
  • Great server performance
Cons:
  • Need to work on keeping track of our battle buddies which caused one black tag
  • Medical bugs with people dying with heartrate and low blood loss + AED broken

Specialist Mason.H
Private First Class Stevenson.T

Pros:
  • Plenty of targets to engage whilst still leaving lots for infantry too, was awesome!
  • Hogs 1 and 2 for ISR and finding targets relevant to AO, meanwhile Lightning constantly finding and engaging AAA threats, great combo!
  • IDF caused by mortars that we could locate and eliminate, rather than zeus bombs, love it.
Cons:
  • Tanks placed under camo netting (great idea) unfortunately arma3 issue, negated bombs and explosion damage, making tanks invincible.
  • Igla Turret with plenty of individual Igla soldiers around, great to increase difficulty, but ALMOST too much to handle. Damaged Hogs several times.

Element Callsign: Misfit-6
Element Leader: First Lieutenant Sam.T



Pros:
  • The platoon successfully completed the primary mission tasks despite multiple compounding challenges.
  • Considering the number of casualties we took, Atlas was super on the ball tonight!
  • Resupply was prompt and effective during OBJ 1.
  • HVT was successfully extracted.
  • JTAR and deliberate strikes were successful.
Cons:
  • The terrain was not conducive to effective maneuver (this was especially evident with the weapons squad).
  • Low turnout compounded the inherent challenge of mitigating OPFOR resistance over unfavorable terrain.
  • A few break downs in communication due to people going down, being on the wrong net, etc...
