Pros:

• We captured the point 1st both rounds.
• Troopers valiantly driving supply trucks into ditches under fire.

Cons:

• ROE was either misunderstood or just not paying attention causing us to not be able to play the actual objective most of the match by having us re-route to counter them.
• Troopers valiantly driving supply trucks into ditches under fire causing them to get stuck lol
• I was unfamiliar with some of my guys hence asking them to play MG and drive trucks which they were not familiar with. (My fault)
